It is a good thing to get a: judicial ruling on a disputed question. It seme- times make things clear that were mixed and uncertain. Such a decision by a New York J ndge has removed aburden of doubt from the minds of many citi- zens of that and other cities. _He ruled that a policeman was a public~officeix ' The case before the Court was that of an ex~police captain charged with tak- ing four bushels of peaches and a bar- rel Of apples from a fruit dealer as a bribe. The taking ofthe fruit was ad- _ mitted as well as the object for which it was furnished. The indictment was ‘ under the sections of the code impos- ing a penalty on public officers who ac- cept bribes while in the discharge of their duty. The defence was that a police captain is not a public officer. There was much in the practical workings of the New York police sys- tem to sustain this view. The revela- tions before the Lexow Committee in- dicated that many New York police- men were silent partners with gam- blers, bunco steerers, the keepers of disorderly houses and saloon keepers who made money by violating the law, while others were engaged in stand- and—deliver raids upon the merchants and other business men of the city. These men gave no one reason to cup- pose that they regarded themselvesas public officers, and the public, doubt- less, in a large degree came to accept them at their own estimate. ’ And now Judge Ingraham has gone . counter to the police captains’ estimate of themselves and in opposition to the public estimate of them, by declaring that they were public officials all the while, who ought to have been ashamed of themselves for their disregard. of their duty to the public. Really the late election seems to have revised things wonderfully. The. next thing we know some Judge will be declaring that our Councilmen are publ .5 officials elected to legislate in the public inter— est, and not to promote or hinder,-pri- vate or corporate Speculation. This is a revolutionary age, and, there (“is no telling what new and startling fillings the Courts may yet be guilty of. _.. Oysters. The oyster business has received a bad blow from the State heard .of health, says the Journal and Courier. There is no doubt about that. there will’be a decided difference. of opinion about the justification of the blow. And the oyster growers and sellers will not be the only ones 'who will set themselves against the damag- ing dictum of the health board. We have no doubt that Dr. Dibble will laugh at it, and call forth from his well stored mind startling facts in support of his laugh. _.Some other doctors will also disagree with the astute and learn. ed State doctors. And plain people will ask why it is, if the suspected raw oysters are the cause of the fever, everybody who ate of them isn’t sick. Learned doctors will perhaps reply. to this that those only are sick whose systems were in a condition hospitable to the devilish fever germs. And some reckless gentleman may arise and say that he has eaten diseased germs all his life and isn’t dead yet. So the sum of accurate and undisputed knowledge may not be much added to by the rather unusual prevalence of typhoid fever, and the official explanation of it. It will certainly be safe until the 'scare is over to cook oysters. It is safe to do that at any time, by the way. The oyster dealers can relieve them- selves of responsibility by hiring some scientific gentleman to discover the c...- act degree of heat necessary to kill ty- phoid fever germs and spreading the information among those who are given to eating oysters. We have little doubt that they could hire some scientific gentleman who would feel able to say there is _nothing in. the scare but we wouldn’t recommend that. That would look like contempt of the State board Of health, and no such contempt should be exhibited. It will be better to ad- vocate the cooking of oysters. And as the season of church entertainments will soon be in full blast the oyster dealers might benefit both themselves and the public by buying and publish- ‘ing a scientific opinion to the effect that the more oysters there are in a stew the less likely those who eat 'it are to die. Lukewarm and dishwatery oyster steWS may well have the condemnation of science, even if such condemnation disturbs the harmony: between science and religion. —-4-.- Ate New Haven Oysters. There are 42 cases of typhoid fever" in New Haven. Many of the people who are ill attended a society dinner and ate raw oysters which are thought to have been fattened in‘water through which sewage flows. ‘ -. ' Broke DOWn- , The Pittsfield freight broke down near the Fair grounds at 11 o’clock last night. It was three hours before the trainwas able to proceed to South ) Norwalk. But ' Freight Train. Lost. A peculiar thing occurred on the nights ago, says a Danbury dispatch. A freight tiain was lost?- 'The night opperators along the road searched in vain from shortly after midnight ‘till daylight for the missing train and were filled with no end of anxiety for the safety of the other freight and passen‘ ' ger trains, the two United States ex- presses, on the road. They exoected at any moment to have a collision re- ported to them, and they were kept on the qui vives ”of excitement for several hours. , The train, all the time, was on a sid- ing in the New England railroad yard in Danbury, and the whole crew are now looking for a job. ' . It appears that an eastbound freight had orders to take a. siding in the yard, shertly after midnight to wait for one of the United States expresses to pass. The siding was taken and the crew, who had been working over hours and were completely exhausted, one by one, went to sleep. Slumber overtook the conductor, the engineer, the fireman and the two or three brakemen that were employed on the train. The United States express and the heavy freights went rumbling by all the rest of the night long but not one of the members of the crew was disturbed by the noise. . They slept calmly and peacefully till daybreak and there is no knowing‘ how much longer they would have remained in the arms of Morpheus had the train not then been discovered by some of the attaches of the local station. They saw the train standing on the side track, and on making an examin- ation found the men asleep and aroused them. ’lhe news of the finding was quickly reported to the dispatchers and it was flashed over the wires and the nervous strain under which they had all been was released. The crew was ordered to Hartford with the train. They were unable to go immediately as the fire in the fire box had gone out and it took some time to build a new one and get up steam. At last they got under way and in the course of the day arrived at Fart- ford. It is difficult to tell what the members of the crew thought would come of the extraordinary incident with which they had been so strangely connected. . Their minds were soon relieved,how— ever, when they got to their destina- tion. There each man of the crew found a notice of discharge awaiting him. . At least one of the men lives. in Dan- bury and he is still looking for a peer- tion on a railroad. , The strange part of the whole thing is that every member of the crew should have succumbed to somnolence. Some of them if not all. expect to get back on the road eventually. v . Tours to Washington, D. 0., via Pennsylvania Railroad. Encouraged by the success of its personally-conducted tours in the past and the enthusiastic words of commen: dation from its patrons, the Pennsylva- nia Railroad Company announces that arrangements have been completed for a series of personally-conducted tours to Washington, D. 0., via that line, the first of which will be run on Decem~ her 6. » , ‘ The tour will cover a period of three days, and the ratesfor the round trip, including accommodations at Washing- ton’s best hotels, will be as follows :— New York, Brooklyn. and Newark, $13 50; Trenton, $12.75; Philadelphia and Wilmington, $11.50 ; proportionate rates from other points. . Tickets including, in addition to above, meals on route at Broad Street Station, Philadelphia. can be had at stations north and east of Philadelphia for $1.00 more than above rates. -Application for space on this tour should be made at an early date to the ticket agents of the Pennsylvania Rail. road, or to the tourist agents of the company, 1196 Broadway, New York; 860 Fulton street, Brooklyn; or Broad street station, Philadelphia. ——-—-———-—<+p———‘-———_ Congregational Conference. The 28th annual meeting of the Con- gregational churches of Connecticut was opened in the Congregational church at South N orwalk Tuesday after- noon. There were about 200 delegates present from all parts of the state. Rev. Gerald H. Beard delivered the address of welcome. There was a general discussion by the ministers during the afternoon and in the evening Prof. George P. Fisher of Yale read a paper on “l‘he Relation of the Historic Episcopate to Church Unity.” Rev. J. B. Clark also ad- dressed the convention and Rev. C. H. Lamson of Hartford preached a ser- mon. . The convention will continue today. i That Sandbank Again. The question is asked: “On whose authority and to whose benefit is build- ing sand being carted out of the Town House bill bank, near the station house ? ” We are not prepared to say but are informed that it is not by the consent of the Selectmen. If we re- member aright there was a stone wall built at the time Andrew Selleck was selectman, and if we mistake not, by his orders, to stop the taking away of sand from the hill. If it is a fact that sand is now being carted away the Sc- lectmen should know of it. Are These Veterans lelng? George P. Edwards of‘ Collinsville, historian of the Twenty-first Connec- ticut Regiment, desires information about some members of Company B. of that regiment. Survivors or friends are asked to tell if the following are livmg and where, if dead, when and where they died : Julius .Bassett, Jesse A. Clark, Increase V. Thurston, John Callahan, Michael Daley, Patrick Ken- ney, Francis Logan, Lewis Whitehead. All of these enlisted from Hartford.

These two complaints are so tena- cious that the readers of the GAZETTE should know of the success obtained by using Dr. David Kennedy’s Favor- ite Remedy. Where all other treat- ments have failed, it has made a com- plete cure. Perhaps no more horrible case of Salt Rheum was ever reported than that of Wilbur L. Hale, Quartermaster, Pratt Post, G.

Several physicians utterly failed to ren- dy’s Favorite Remedy be tried, and steady improvement followed its use, and a permanent cure resulted. t is used with similar success in cases of scrofula, nervousness, kidney and liver complaints, and in all cases brought about by bad blood and shat- tered nerves.
