Don Carlos Again.

There is locked up at the Central po~
lice station at Bridgeport, on the charge
of theft, a young man whoclaims to be
of high origin. His name is Don Juan
St. Carlos, and when placed underar-
i'cst he entered a mild protest against
being subjected to such indignity, but
Doorman Stanit‘ord said as he looked
him up : “It doesn’t make any diner-
ence whether he comes from Spain or
Turkey, he is an offender and entitled
to no spectal conSideration.” The
doorman further assured him thutiwhile
Bridgeport policemen might not be up
to date in their knowledge of interna-
tional etiquette, they were well versed
in handling prisoners. . .

The accused says he is the victim
of a conspiracy in which he suspects
several former friends of. playing no
unimportant part. He claims Portugal
as his home.

'He was in a Water street saloon
where he met Victor Bias. Several
rounds of drink were taken. Then St.
Carlos-took a somewhat hasty depart-
ure. Bv a strange coincidence SS of
Rias’s money and the Portuguese were
discovered missing at the same time. .

The police thought best to ask the
latter to explain, but he did not give a
satisfactory explanation. So he was
held for trial in the City court. His
bonds were fixed at $50. -

Don Juan was sent up from Norwalk
about six months ago for assault with
intent to kill. He was the most trou-
blesome prisoner the jail ollicials ever

‘ had to deal with. He claims at that
liinc he was bothered with halluctna-
lions, but they were suddenly dis-
pelled by the jail physician who applied
an uncommon but unusually effective
remedy.

Important Ruling.

Mr. Justice Brewer in the Supreme
Court of‘thc United States has an-
nounced a rule in patent law that will
be of interest and value to persons on—
gaged in claims or litigation arising out
of decisions of the patent office.

Frederick H. Daniels and Charles H.
Morgan both claim to be the original
inventor of an improvement in ma-
chines for coiling wire. They first
contested the claim in the patent office,
where there were three decisions, two
in favor of Morgan and one in favor of
Daniels. The Circuit court for Massa-
chusetts over-ruled the decision of the
commissioner of patents in favor of
Morgan, and found that Daniels was
the original inventor.

Quoting a number of decisions bear-
ing on the case, Judge Brewer said:
“Upon principle and authority, there-
fore, it must be laid down as a rule that
when the question decided in the pat-
ent office is one between contesting
parties as to priority of invention, the
decision there made must be accepted
as controlling upon that question of
fact in any subsequent suit between the
same parties, unless the contrary is
established by testimony which in char-
acter and amount carries thorough con.
Viction.”

Under this rule the judgment of the

.Circuit Court in favor of Daniels was
reversed, with instructions to dismiss
the bill.

It was the vote of the school board
of New Britain that all school children
not provided with certificates of vaccin-
ation should be sent home. The anti-
vaccination feeling is so strong in New
Britain that 15 per cent of the school
children were not provided with certifi-

That City Meeting.

We are informed by City Clerk Lock-
wood that there is a question as to the
legality of the appropriation of $3,500
made at the special city meeting on
Monday last for the construction of a
sewer on Butler street. It seems that
the new city charter» provides that no
appropriation exceeding 3100 shall be
made at any special city meeting un-
less the vote be taken by ballot.

The vote on Monday was taken in the
manner customary at former special
borough meetings, the provisions in
the new city charter being overlooked
by all present. It may be necessary to
call another meeting to. remedy the
irregularity. ‘

M‘GABRAIIAN DEAD..«.. j

fin Bail Been Prosecuting, _a,___l‘aliiable
ClaimIFor Manifest-s. " ‘ '

WASHINGTON, April 25,—William Mc-
Garrahan, whodied at the Providence hos-
' ' pital ~in_this city

today, had for the
past quart-er of a
century been one
of the most famil—
iar figures about
the national cap-
ital. He was the
claimant for the
Mexican land
grant in southern
California known
as the Rancho Pa-

 

' - had been prose—
WILLIAM M’GAiiuAiiax. cut-ing‘ the claim
in the courts, the departments- and con-
grcss for the past 35 years, and the history
of his efforts, to secure what he and his
friends believe was his by right would
make a story as thrilling as a novel.
McGarrahan came into possession of the
claim in 1858 through purchase from the

‘ original grantee, paying $11,000 for it.

There was a vast tract of the land, but it
was mountainous, and at that time the
agriculturiil and mineral possibilities of
that part of California. were not known.
Soon after McGari-ahan made his purchase
the New ldria quicksilver mines were dis-
covered on the grant, and it was not a
great while before the mine was found to
bb one of the most valuable deposits of
this mineral in the world.

The local owners of the mine refused to
recognize the McCarrahan .claim to the
property. He took the matter to the
courts, where he. received two confirma-
tions of his title, but the New Idria people
still resisting be appealed to the interior
departments at \Vashington during the
first administration of President Lincoln.
who, after his. secretary of the interior had
twice ordered patents to issue. himself
made an examination of the claim and
passed favorably upon it.

McGari-ahan appealed to congress to
overcome new obstacles. Since that time
a bill for McGnri-ahun’s relief has been iii-
troduced at the beginning of every term
of congress. Time and again the bill has
been passed by the two llOllst's‘, but never
until the Fifty-second congress did it ic-
ceive the simultaneous sanction of the two
houses. '

\Vhen the bill passed, President l-lurri-
sou found it unsatisfactory in some of its
details and refused his approval. The bill,
remodeled so far as to meet the president’s
objections, was immediate] y reintroduced
in both houses. it passed the senate, but
failed to get through the house that con-
gress.

The bill had again passed the senate this
congress and was unanimously reported
by the house committee having it in
charge the day the health of the clainnint
broke completely about 10 days since, ren-
dering it necessary that he should be taken
to the hospital. '

 

THE “'RECKED STEARIER. ,

 

The Third Officer of the Los Angoles Held
For Manslaughter.

MONTEREY, 0211., April Eli—The coroner’s
investigation into the cause of the wreck
of the steamship Los Angeles at Point Sur
on Saturday night has resulted in a ver-
dict charging Roger Ryfkogel, the ship’s
third officer, with criminal negligence and
carelessness. He was taken into custody
and will be tried for manslaughter. \

The testimony before the coroner’s jury
showed that Ryfkogel changed the ship’s
course without consulting the captain, do-
ing so after Captain Leland had particu~
larl'y ordéred that he be called to direct
the steamer’s course when the Point Stir
light should be reached. '1‘ he hidden rocks
On which the vessel was wrecked are some
distance north of the light.

It was shown, too, that the night was
clear and the light in full view, though
the accused third officer, in his testimony,
insisted that the sky was hazy. llc ad—
mitted, however, his disregard of. Captain
Leland’s orders. .

The bodies of five of the six persons
known to have been lost have been recov-
ered. ‘

Nicaragua Canal Judgments.

NEW YORK, April :35.—Statenicnts were .

for $75,000. At the offices of the company

Bynum’s Former Law Partner’s Suicide.

INDIANAPOLIS, April 25.-——A1bert ’1‘.Beck,
a well known lawyer and the former .law
partner of Congressman Bynum, was
found dead today.‘ A shot was heard by
the family about 8 o’clock, and when Mr.
Beck failed to respond to a call at 7 o’clock
his room was entered, and his body lay
with a bullet in the bowels. While the
suggest-ion of murder has been made, his
friends think it is a case of suicide.

 

Prominent People Sentenced.

EL I'Aso, Tex, April 25.——~A remarkable
case has been tried here. It grew out of a
conspiracy at Robert Lee, asmall village,
to transmit a large number of money or—
ders and rob the mail. The following per-

_ Shakespeare's Cats.

Shakespeare makes frequent refer.
ences to the cat in his plays. Lady Mac-
beth taunts her husband when he hangs
back from the murder with:

Letting I dare not. wait upon I would,-
Likc the poor out i’ the adage,
alluding to that animal’s fonchiess for
fish—“V‘Vliat cat’s averse to fish?”—but
its umvillingness to wet its feet in
catching them.

Falstaff seizes upon another feature of
the animal‘s character, so detested by
all wakeful sleepers in towns: ‘ ‘ ’Sbloodl
I am as melancholy as a gib cat 1’ ’ When
Mercutio longs for a fray with Tybalt,
he accosts him: “Good king of cats, I
would have nothing but one of your nine
lives. That I‘J‘ilwtiilll to make. bold withal,
and, as you shall use me hereafter; dry
heat the rest of" the. eight,” and there-
. upon receives that'colchrated “scratch”

wide as a. church (1001‘. ”—New York
