On the face of the obligation entail-

that the Central is not legally indebt-
cd for the interest upon unpaid con

According ton circular recently is-

No Extra Pay For Messengers
and Deoriteepcrs
HARTFORD. Aug. 20——in the house
yesterday the personal -tax bill as
amended in the senate was adopted.l
The bill regarding the issuance of
bonds by towns was rejected in con-
currence.
The bill establishing a state board
of finance was continued until the
next session of the assembly. The
resolution increasing the payebf the
messengers and door-keepers also and
8100 respectively on the ground of
the extraordinary length of the ses-
sion was oposed by Messrs. Goodrich
Winchester;
Nelson of Annuals; Parker of Hart-
ford. and Mark of Portland. The
speakers took the ground that the
messenger and doorkeepers had con-
tracted to do the work and that boy
were not entitled to any extra remun-
eration. The matter was indefinitely
postponed by a large majority.
The bill amending the charter of
the Uncas Power Co. was amended
and adopted after a considerable de-
bate Rep. Dunn, of Willimantic op-
pOsed the measure on the ground that
it would give life company the right
of eminent domain. and that he did
not think it right to give this to an
electric light company. He claimed
that it was a scheme on the part of
the company to get hold of a piece of
land held by a man nanicd Caddy.
Representative Chandler alluded to
it as a holdup scheme and thought
that the company ought to ave the
right of eminent dmnain to and im-
mediately adjoining that owned by the
company. The amendment was pas-
sed and the bill was adopted.
An effort to reconsider the bill re
gardihg‘ the certificates of teachers
was lost. It was opposed by Mr. Ma~
es of Watcrtown on the pond that
t would allow inexperienced teachers
to get state certificates. The bill re
garding the sailors of boats or less-
els illegally“ dredging upon oyster
grounds was adopted. The bill rats.
ing the salary of the clerk of the shell

Hny Eever Season Opened Officially
Yesterday.
,Havo you sneezed today? The al-
manac ,bring to notice the fact that
yesterday was August 20. the first day
of the open season for hay fever. or
"rsg- weed fever" as it was first called
by the medical- profession. By the
sufferers from the disagreeable af-
fection it‘is called a number of things,
none of which is suitable for expres-
sion in print. Those who may have
laid in a special stock of handker-
chiefs against the coming of the gui-
den rod and the annual sneeze fast
will be thankful first they had such
foresight for after an attack of the buy
fever one seldom feels able to attend
to men trivial things.
The conversation of many for the
next few weeks will be punctuated
with success and those who can con-
veniently do so will noel: a change of
climate to soften if possible the at-
tacks of the trouble. . There is n all-
ver lining to the cloud. however. for
though disagreeable. in the extreme.,
there is nothing dangerous about the
peculiar malady which comes with the
month of August.
