Witchcraft and love philters figure
in the pa are filed yesterday ill the
Supreme ourt In Kluge county in the
suit for paparation brought by Minnie
Cohen against her it band. Joseph
Cohen, a corset mlsu acturer. Mr.
Cohen's first wife secured a divorce
rom him in this county two years ago.
e married his present wife two
monthslater, having been introduced
to her by a schafchon.
‘Aocording to the affidavit of the
schatchen, Tobias isaac Waldtman. of
80 Canal street, who also runs an em-
ployment agency. and the affidavit of
Mr. Cohen himself. the corset maker
went to the employment agency ill
the search for a cook. Minnie Kauf-
man. a piano teacher about 27 or 28.
had registered ill the matrimonial dev
partment. and Waldtman spoke to
ohelt"about her and brought about
t elr meeting.
Mr. Cohen. taking up the story. says
that the matter of the earlier divorce
had left him in a "vindictive mood.
and." be an. "i mailman my mind
to marry the first woman when the
opportunity . would present itself."
He met Minnie Kaufman, talked wltll
her for twenty minutes and ”in a

The Bridgeport marriage was on
October 3. i907. and the cou ie lived
together until June 30 last, at so Mrs
Cohen left her husband. She says she

cruelty and improper behavior. He
permitted his sons: she says. to call
her "crosaeyedfi' a “nasty. dirty street

the office of Mayor [see at the city
hall, the executive committee of the
Fairfleld County Anti-Tuberculosis As.
sociatlon held its first session since
the election of Dudley B. Bollard as
president. .1. Boyuton Jones, of the
Metropolitan Life insurance Company,
who succeeded Rev. W. H. howls as
a member of the committee, also was
present, and lively interest was mani-
fested in the proceedings by the new
executives.
Dr. W. H. Donaldson, chairman of
the board; Dr. w. M. Robinson, 0!
Durien; Mayor Henry Lee and Dr. c.
N, Haskell were the other members
of the committee present.
To Make Committee Changes.
Mr. Ballard. Dr. Donaldson and Dr.
Haskell were appointed to make need-
ed changes in the personal of the var-
ious committees. It is also proposed
to enlarge the membership of ‘the ex-
ecutive committee at a later‘dafe and
thus bring into more close‘relatlon-
ship the various committee chairmen
and other officers of the association.
Buttons With Double Red Cross.
’An appropriation was made for the
purpose of procuring buttons with a
double red cross, which is the official
anti-tuberculosis sign, and the lil-
scrlpllon, “Anti-Tuberculosis" thereon.
Twu kinds of buttons will be ordered.
one which will sell for if) cents and
another which will sell for 25 cents.
Every, man. women or childln Fair-
field county will be given an oppoifun—
fly to buy one of them- buttons. and

Lawrence Asks For (is-Operation.
A communication was read from tho
Lawrcnce, Mass. AntivTuberculosis
Association, asking the co-opt-ration of
this association in preventing the
spread of the disease through the toe-
dium of a telephone receiver, and a
committee was 'nppointed to motor
with local telephone officials to that
end. .
Plan to start Tuberculosis Classesfi
Perhaps the most important work
of the evening was a plan suggested
by one of the committee to start
tuberculosis classes at the dispensary,
the establishment of a day camp in pr
near the. city. and the employment
of visiting nurses to assist in carrying
on the work. ,
This move will serve to‘ care for
those afflicted with the dread diacrst-
until such time as a ssnatorium is
established in this county. '
sWork to Begin at Once.
The classes formed will be treated
and educated on the lines adopted in
other cities, and which have proved
successful. .
All appropriation waa.made for the
purpose, and work will begin at once.

BUSY HAT SEASON.
Many Hatters in Danbury From Oth-
' er Districts. ‘
‘1' With the middle of July several
days past, thechht factories of Dan-
bury are getting into the busy season
of.the~fall trade in good earnest. Es-
1le is thus true of the soft but
factories. and. although all of the fac-
:torios are feeling the rush of the, busy
season, those which turn out soft hats
are most‘, affected by the demands of
the market.
The height of the fall season comes
In September, alld there is a wide-
spread expectation that it will be the
:bfggest season in many. years. This
:oxpectalion is based partly on the
theory that the recent trouble in the
hat trade has cleaned up the supply
of hats all over the country. and that

mandfor new fall stock. Certain it

to handle a bigger trade thanevcr he-

are increasing their capacity by the

stoilation of new machinery.

dime nearly two hundred finishers in
'Danbury from Philadelphia. Orange,

Discouraglng Record of Annual Deficits
and .purplu. Complaints.
(Mandy's Magazine.) .
Government railways are havlol
lather a hard time of it in fibrous.
The experiment of ownership and
operation by the state, as far as it has
been attempted not only in Europe
but elsewhere. seems to have failed.
and lime and trial more and more
demonstrate its inevitable and inher-
ent inefficiency.
Everywhere state operation is with
clsed and every year proves it in-
creaalngly unsatisfactory to every-
body. except the politicians and the
functionaries. Thus in Belgium the
financial a nation has grown so bad
that the ra way administration is now
contemplating what is practically im-
possible—a substantial increase both
i freight and passages- yattpl.. it is
that or bankruptcy for. the scheme.
in S'u’itzerlnnd government'exploltn~
lion regularly works an annual deficit.
With less than 3,000 miles of lines the
budget for 1906 allowed a deficit of"
about 3925.000. and in 1903 of about
$1,200,000, without taking account of
the interest on the. bonded cost
amounting to $240,000,000. Govern-
ment operation- in that compact little
country. with only about 8,000,000 of
inhabitants and an area only about
twice that of the state of Massachu-
setts. has given such unfavorable re-
sults that the public are crying out
against it. and it promises to he a
leading issue in the coming electoral
campaign.
in Japan stale ownership has
proved so disastrous to the finances
of the country that the government
is now looking to a syndicate of for-
eign capitalists to help if out. The
statement is made that government
ownership thorn. has imperiled the
nationaldnances, prevented railway
inlplovements and checked the cm-
ciency of the service.
ill llaly the results of the shite
operation are thils fur notoriously
bud. The operation results, of
course. ill on annual deficit. and al-
though the traffic constantly increases
the receipts constantly ,dimlnlsh.
During a recent month‘s operation.
out of 1,000 passenger trains lots were
an hour or more late. and there is
constant and bitter complaint both
from shippers and passengers as to
the unsatisfactory character of the
service.

eration is that of the state, and in
Germany things go from bad to worse.

there probably exists no more fantastic
conception than in the rural graveyard
of Pleasant Ridge, says a writer in the
Strand Magazine. To the memory of a
daughter whom he idolized, Hannibal
Clark, a wealthy but simple-minded
farmer, erected this remarkable shaft
,of granite. He was so affected by her
death that he survived but a short time
after he had made provision for the
erection of the strange monument. Not
.only did he siipulato what he wished
,ongrttved concerning his daughter. but,
also concerning his wife and himself.
It was the frcuklsli desire of the father
to place upon tin- monument. a replica
of all that the girl loved on earth. He
left instructions that no expense be
spared to inscribe upon the. stone a

Hartford Lawyer Expresses His Opin-f
ion Regarding the So called Pub-
lic Utilities Measure
The following letter is sclf'csplann-
tory:
Hartford, July 20, 1000.~
Editor of the Sentinel:—— _ l
The so-called public utilities pub-I
llshed by a majority of the ilpcciai
committee appears to have been drawn
for the committee with extreme con-
tempt for the intelligence of the gen-
eral assembly and, of the public.
The bill leaves the existing railroad
commission with no increase of Its
resent inadequate owers, but more
y creates an nddit unai commission.
with hardly so much as a semblance
of power. it excludes from its operav
tion railroads and street railways, al-
though tho. delnand for an effective
public utilities commission resulted
principally from abuses connected
with street railway charters.
The bill purportatp apply to all
lighting, telephone and. water comv
panics; but by section 1 all corporiix
tions reportib: to the railroad commis-
ipperssre xprsssly excluded from
.i {ope flop of e act; hence, ai-
thoufb Chan ticut. Company (a.
subs diary company of the New York,
New, Haven an Hartford Railroad1
Company) repor a to the railrosd com:
mlssioners only in reference to its
street. railway operations. yet it to.
exempt under the proposed act from:
making any repurta.coucerning the?
electric lighting hustuess'which," con-i
ducts in Waterbury. New Britain.
Norwnlk and eleven other towns in
the state, while all other private
plants and the municipal plant in
Norwalk utust‘makl- full reports. Is
this an indication of the. origin of tile
proposed measure? .
Section 6 of the majority bill pro-
vides that the corporatioas subject to
this act shall ,furnish "reasonably
proper and adequate service." but
the bill contains no provision for the
failure to furnish it. his section also
provides that the corporation shall
take all ressonabloprbcautlons to pre-.
vent injuring "the persons or propel“
ty of others." but it gives the commis~
sion created no power to order re-
pairs necessary to public safety or ev~
on to investigate the causes of acci-
dent. Thc section, although having
an appearance of importance. add
nothing in fact to the existing com-
mon law. g ‘ ' ‘
Section T. dealing with capitalist
tion, is a Joke. in conjunction with
section 16 it gives all corporations
subject to the act power to issue capl-
lal stock. mortgage bonds or other
evidences of indebtedness in unlimit-
t‘d quantltlcs “for paying the whole or
any part of its indebtedness or for
the provision of prbper working capi-
tal." What greater powers could be
devised? Yet later in the section If
is expressly. provided that under cer-
tain circumstances a corporation may
"issue and sell its full paid stock at
a price less than par, to be determined
by its directors," and the measure
does not expressly forbid such issue
under any circumstances. Accepting
property in Without for' securities at
an over-valuation is not prohibited.
and is punishable only when a stock-
holder or ,‘the corporation fraudulently
profits thereby. Ho does, this limit
the use of fake can elicit companv
les for pvomoters' profits?- The com-
mission has power ,to “approve" the
issue of mortgage bonds in unlimited
quantities; but no penalty is procided
.for the issue of such bonds, without
such approval. No restrictions what-
ever are pingedl‘npon the issue of tie-
benture bonds Or coupon notes. it is
impossible to see what effect this sec
tlon.has other than to extend the
powers of corporations now subject to
charter limitations. *
Sections 8 and 9 vest in the commis-
sion,,the dual power to determine the
location of poles andwlrcs in the
highways, and to appraise the dam-
a s suffered by adjoining proprietors.
T can powers are now vested ill the
Judges of the superior court. is this
a public bellefii'l.
Section 10 reduces the legal stand-
ard for gas from sixteen to fifteen
candle power.
Truly the majority bill is strange-
ly and wonderfully made. is not its
presentation, through the medium of a
majority of a legislative committee, an
insult to the general assembly; an ex-
pression of utter contempt for the gen-
uine public demand expressed at the
hearings for a rational and effective
utilities bill? ”
The public asked for bread; they
are offered a stone.
Yours very truly,

(Exchange)
Tile fishermen of '(lloucester have
long monopolized fiction and poetry
as being the real catchers of cod and
the most picturesque of those who
tnulte their living on the Grand flanks.
Rudyard Kipling let his character in
“Captains Courageous" speak dlsrc-,
spectfully of the Frenchmen and
Illuenoses who competed in the race'
for fish. and other socalled sea wrlt-
ers have done the same.
If y u ask a Bluenose. that is a
reside f of Nova Scotfa, who are the
real bankers.‘ he'wlll tell you "the
turn of Lunenburg.” Lunenburg is the
rival of Gloucester in the hunt for
cod. and a pretty husky rival. too, for
fishermen from that seaport on the
backbone -of that Industry that is
valued well over $3,000,000 a year.
The Lunenburg fishermen spend
about half the year at home. but they
do not use this time sitting around the
docks spinning yarns. They are busy
with lobster catching or in the woods.
When March comes around they begin
to make ready for the sea.
The schooners are put in order and
stocked with'provisions. 0n the Sun-
hold special services and prayers go
up for safe and prosperous voyages.
They are devout. these [lluenpao fisher-
men, but they keep an eye on the
profits, too.
The fishing schoollers are small.
rarely reaching 100 tons. The law
requires vessels exceeding that size to
carry it certified master, and the
Lunenburg man can't see. the use of
passing examinations in navigation.
With a compass and a dipsey lead the
master of a banker can find his way.
in any weather. .
The start from Lunenburg is like
the start of a yacht race. Most of
the bankers go out on the same Clay
and there is good natured rivalry
among the altippe
first anchor on the siting grounds.
When a skipper makes berth in is
likely place real work begins. The
dorles, ' fiat bottomed boots about 15
feet long, which are Very *seawortby;
but don‘t look it. are put overboard
and the trawls set. . '
These trawls are something sizable
in the way of fishing lines.
line Is from one to one and a,half
miles long. with a fringe of smaller
lines which carry the books. _The
trawla are anchored at each end and
are set like the spokes of a wheel
whose hub is the schooner. The‘
dories move up and down’the 'trs‘wls,
taking off the fish and rebelling the,
books. it sounds easy.‘butin a heavy
sea it is ticklish business. " . . .
When a schooner has loaded full,
with fish. out and sailed down. she
steals away from the shrieking med-
ley of foghorns and makes for Lillian-
burg, it is a luck ship *which'entera
