The-latest addition‘to the navy of the

of the thirteen original States. She
was christened the Helena, after the
name of a lively mining town in one of
' the newest of the far Western States.

The Worcester Situation. '_

» The stocks of the leading England
railroads having shown a tendendy to
advance. which has been interpreted to
mean changes in ownership and control,
the Worcester Spy is heard to remark :
“ The sudden rise of Boston and Albany
stock to 217, on Tuesday, .net with a

initial reaction, Wednesday, when the

:price fell to ‘2-l2- and then rose to 214.
. Meanwhile, New England stock, both
common and preferred was on the
jump. ' ,Of couse the keen ones laughed
"Ha, ha! ?’- and repeated the prediction
' that the ‘New York,eNew Haven and
Hartond was about to gobble up the
staid aul wealthy old Albany road.
For two weeks the, managers of the
. Consolidated road have been exercising
their highly-developed faculties for
denying everything, and have been
sayirig that they don’t want the Albany.
wouldn’t take it use. gift, and ceiildn’t
get it if they did want it. '-

The1e is at least a grain of truth in'

their final statement: unless the old
‘ treaty wgth the Boston and Maine has
7 been very lately repudiated, The ar-
gument was that the Albany road should
,v be neutral territory, a bouhdary, a
‘buliervstate,’ as the diplomatists say,
between the ferrite: v which furnishes
' legitimate railroad game to‘the Boston
and Maine, and that which is the strict-

‘ " ~- iy private preserves of the New York,

Marriage and Divorce Laws.

. TheSupreme Court of the United
States having decided that Congress
has, no power to regulate the marriage
and divorcelaws of this country with-

1L“loot: an amendment to the Constitution,
’ : Representative Howe, of Brooklyn. has

introduced a joint resolution, to be

submitted to the Legislatures of the

several States, providing that Oohgress
shall have exclusive authority in this

. matter. To be effective this resolution

must be ratified by. the Legislatures .of'

three— -fonrths of all the States

‘ Scindalous is the only term_ which
1111 y describes the condition of the mar-
rings and divorce laws of the United
States. Whethcraperson be married
or not, or whether he be divorced or

i 'not after, depends solely in what par-

ticular section of the Union he chances
' to sojourn. Iii one Commonwealth 13
“man may be the legal and respected
spouse'of one wife and in an adjoining
Commonwealth the same man would be

h: regarded as a bigamist and criminal

In some States divorce is entirely pro-
‘hibited while in others it can be ob-
tained upon the most trifling pretext.
Where, such a'situ‘ation of affairs is .pos-
sible is it at all surprising that there
should be a relaxation of moral re
straints, a growing Indifference, if not

L '-y Wicked New Canaan.

Ahousc at Mud Pond, near New Ca-
naan, in charge of Daisy Peatt, and

'what has been known as the “Griebel

place,” near the Norwalk reservoir,
have long been obnoxious to the good
people of New Canaan because of the
orgies carried on there. Some of New
Canaan’s gilded youth, as well as the
more wicked young men of Norwalk,
have frequented the houses, and the
neighbors have been holding indigna-
tion meetings. The condition of affairs
was finally brought to the attention of
the authorities, and a party orgamzed
by the redoubtable Constable Merrill
went looking for Daisies and Lillies
Thursday night. Merrill was accom-
panied by Oflicers Weed, Raymond and
Holly. First they raided the; Peatt
place, and then the other one, find in
each instance surprised the inmates of
the house. Eight of them spent the
iahtinthe lockup They were Fred.
Peatt, lately released from the White
Plains jail, on bail; John Raymond,
Spencer Hoyt, Benjamin Monroe, Mrs.
Mary Smith and her daughter Bertha,
M1s._Ida Hoyt and Lillie Olmstead.
Folks in New Canaan consider that it
was a rich haul, and that it will have a
salutary effect upon the town. Consta—
blo Merrill is regarded as a hero.

- ' Court Cases.

In the Superior court yesterday the
assignment of cases for next week re-
quired but a short time, as Judge
Wheeler stated that there was business
enough assigned now, and he would
make no-new assignments. The "short
calendar was then taken up.

The case of the Norwalk 5;. South
Norwalk Electric Light 00. vs. City' of
South Norwalk, on motions to strike
out and extending time for replying to
defendant’s amended answer, went off
the list and one week was allowed in
whichto file a demurrer.

City of Norwalk vs'. Lockwood, mo.
tion to expunge, continued one week.

Valentine vs. Norwalk Gas Light 00.,
defendant’s motion to strike out, con-
tinued one week.

There was also a short calendar ses-
sion of the Common Pleas court. There
was no action in the case of S. G. Mor-
rell et ux. vs. A. Decker, et al., defen-
dant’s motion to disallow amendment
to complaint, off the list. '

Saloon- -Keepers Liable.

City Attorney Fay, of Meriden, says
that the first case that comes to his
knowledge, where a man while intoxi-
cated has assaulted his wife or children
ofrdamaged property, he will bring ac-
tion against the saloon-keeper who sold
him the l1quor, provided he can find
witnesses to prove that the liquor was
bought at the place. The saloon-keep-
er is liable for all damage and should‘
be- made to pay.

Section 3, 101 of the General Statutes

reads:

agent shall sell any spirituous and in-
toxicating liquor to any person to be
drunk on the premises, who thereby be-
comes 1ntoxicated, and who. while so
intoxxcated, shall, in consequence of
said intoxication injure the person or
property of another, shall pay just dam-
ages to the person injured, to be recov-
ered on an action on this statute.”

Celebrated at the Staples High

-School on Friday.

The Exercises Were Well Attended and
Much lnterest'Manifested.. .

..__-._.-- - «

Yesterday was observed as Founder’ 13
day at the Staples High school at
Saugatuck, and a pleasing programme
of exercises was presented in the As-
sembly hall of the Bebop]. The cele-
bration was given in honor of the 94th
anniversary of President Horace
Staplcs’ birth ' '

The holding of the exercises in the
morning wasa new feature, this was
done because of the founder not wish-
ing to'be out during the late part of
the‘bflernoon or evening. Rev. Ken-
neth Mackenzie, was president of the

.day and to his care was intrnsted the

carrying out of the program, Prof.
Pratt, deserves much credit for his un-
tiring efforts to make the Founder’s
Day. as much of a success as all previ-
ous ones, the Teachers Misses Pilling,
Taylor and Bradley are also deserving
of much praise.

ceived the cengratulations of his many
friends in the Library of the School.

Mr. 00' ey read a number of letters.
of regret from friends of Mr. Staples
and the school.

Among the visitors who favored the
audience was a nephew of Morris K.
Jessup. His address was to the child‘
rep and both young and old thoroughly:
appreciated his remarks. as-

Mr. Staples being too feeble to re-
spond to the Address of Founder, it be- _
came the pleasure of Rev. K. Macken-

Q.

FOUGHT TO A STANDSTILL,

 

 

 

Dan Keefe'of Greenwich, Gives Woods of
San Francisco, a Drubbing.

The opening bent at the New Man-
hattan Athletic club meeting in New
York last night was one of eight rounds
at 133 pounds, between Dan Keefe of
Greenwich. and Harry Woods of San
Francisco. In height and reach the
former had a decided call, and his
swinging right went in over his rival’s
guard frequently. Woods stood up to
his work well for four rounds, and plied
his left at short range with. telling ef-
fect. He then tired to’ a standstill, but
contrived to stay in the game by dodg-
ing and clinching. In. the eighth round
Keefe went for his man with both hands
and pummelled him into a dazed con-
dition Woods just managed to last
the round, but the decision, of course,
went to Keefe.

The New York Journal speaking of
thebout says. ”Little science was dis-
played by either throughout the contest
each endeavoring to land a .knockout
with left or right swiiigs.
of the eighth round Woods was tired,

 

‘ but not a mark appeared on either

man.”

A, New York dispatch says that Keefe
had the best of the affair throughout
aud'in the first three rounds landed re-
peatedly with telling effect. In the
fourth round Woods swung his left on
the body several times. Keefe almost
rushed his man off his feet in- the next
two rounds, and Woods wasfast becom-
ing groggy and clinched to save him-
self. The bell saved Woods from a
knockout 1n the last round.

REGKLESS DRIVING

Robert Anderson MiSuses John
Tuhey’ 3 Horse and Resists!
- the Officers Who Ar-
. l , rest Hirn.

Judge Hubbell lmposes a Heavy Fine Upon
A the Accused

Complaint was made to Chief Bradley
yesterday afternoon that there was a
man on East avenue who-was driving a
horse in an inhuman; manner. The
chief started up Mill Hill and as he
did so met the man complained of,
coming down the hill the horse at the
time being at a moderate walking pace.

As the turnout reached the foot of
the‘hill the chief stepped up to the
wagon and detained the man until Wil-
liam Betls was summoned and identified
him as the one he and others had com-
plained of, and he‘theu placed the man
who was recognized as Robert Ander-
son, under arrest. _

Anderson resisted and Officer More-
house who happened to .bc near by
went to the Chief’s assistance. The
prisoner who was under the influence
ofliquor‘attempted to bite the officers
and also let his feet fly in a vicious man-
ner at them. He then laid down and
refused to budge an inch. Jailor Tim-
othy Howard arrived on the scene and
then the three picked Anderson up and
between dragging and carrying him

tion-house. .

The horse and wagon belonged to
John Tuhey and- he had left it in An-
derson’s charge while he was absent on
an errand with the advice that he give
the horse a little exercise. Mr. Tuhey,
was not a little surprised when he
learned that Gafi'ney was under arrest.

A large corwd congregated while
Anderson was being taken to the sta-
tion-house, some one as usual, found
fault with the officers, who fortunately
for Anderson did not lose their temper
and give him the clubbing he seemed
to be courting. One man [made a re-
mark in which there was much truth
when he said, “He went to the lockup
He
proved it by‘not going along, decently
as any one else would have done.”

a“ Andersbn was arrested some time
since for a brutal assault on his mother
and was sentenced to a term in jail.

The prisoner was taken before Judge
Hubbell this morning, who fined him
85 ‘for intoxication; $10 for cruelty to
animals; and$25 and cests for resistance
to the officers. The costs amount to
about 38 He will probably be taken
to jail in default of payment of his
fines. -
