Connecticut lnsurance Companies The report of Insurance Commission- er Fyler on fire insurance shows 113 companies doing business in Connecti- cut, with $314,390,000 assets, and $45,- 087,000 of surplus above capital. They have through the country 815,806,635,- 000 of risks iii“ force. an increase of $900,000,000 in the year. The losses paid were $72,556,000 against $63,313,- 000 in 1891. Dividends paid were $4,- 980,894, against $3,838,052. The total income was $122,101,833. Commission- er Fyler recommends extending for ten days the time for foreign companies to file statements and pay taxes, also'that the time of these deposit investments be extended. A Boycott. The liquor dealers of Bridgeport have hit upon a plan to combat the law and order league in the warfare it has instituted against them, which will touch the individual members of the league in a tender spot. namely, their pockets, and which they believe will make effectual their desire to be let alone. ' At arecent meeting of the Liquor Dealer’s Protective association, it was decided to boycott all members of the league. This will apply to all business and professional men ,who have been prominent in the crusade, and it is ex- pected that the movement will be a big success. * The National Emblem. Edna Dean Proctor, with characteris- tic ability, discusses iu a recent paper, the question, what plant shall be our national emblem? She is in favor of “the bounteous golden corn.” The various states and sections, she says. may choose who owers they will, and she “drops into poetry as follows: The arbutus and the golden rod The heart of the North may cheer. And the mountains laurel for Maryland Its royal clusters rear ; And jasmine and magnolia The crest of the South adorn. But the wide Republic’s emblem ls the bounteous, golden corn 1 That’s all well enough, so far as it goes. Corns are more prevalent than popular in America, but come are in- digenous to . any civilized land, on either side of the water, where tight shoes are worn. So the corn cannot be appropriated as an exclusively Amer- ican' fruit. If Edna wants to adopt a trademark for the national letter-head, she will find that the corn “isn’t in it” when she comes to consider the copious and appaling statistics of our friends, the Prohibitionists. Sister Parsons, and others,which go to show that the nagion. a large majority is Old Rye—John Roge— meyer in Winsted Herald. An lcy Foot Bath. A' woman living not a hundred miles from Norwalk had an experience one night last week which makes her shiver all over every time she has Since re- called it to mind. During the after- noon she complained to a lady friend of a troublesome corn or two and of feeling weary from her knees dow n, The friend said that she had suffer- ed in a like manner, and had gained relief by placing her feet in hike-warm water. The woman on getting home decided to act on her friend’s advice. Aft‘er eating her supper she secured a pail of water, and an easy chair,'sat down in the chair, and taking off her stockings placed her feet in the water. The feeling of rest which she exper- ienced was delightful and before she vrealized'it she had dropped off into a sound sleep from which she did not awake until an early hour In the morn- ing. And it was anything but a pleas- ant awakening: . She attemptedtomove her feet but could not do so. With a startled look she glanced down at the pail and found that‘they were frozen solidly in the water consnderably above her ankles. She dared not call for help for fear of being laughed at. _ She finally succeeded in breaking the me In the pail, and extricating her feet from their icy environment. Wisely. she ave them a vigorousrubbing With a harsh towel, and happily escaped any serious results. The weary feeling bad departed though and she now speaks of the” treatment as a “frpzen success” although she says it shiver— Bridgeport has several suits on hand, broiitghtby parties who sue for denie- 808, orfllnmries vireo ived from falling on my side‘wflhs.“ ~- Thoreau probably ,/ \ v-inemcetjinetencoe [“sli . upll'ein‘ Rotting m ’tlby‘ll‘k‘for.’ ‘ 'p' ‘ . sted Hero Pearsi Soap Prett'y boxes and odors are used to sell such soaps as no one would touch if he saw them un- disguised.

Vice President-elect "Adlai,” family and, friends, arrived Tuesday evening and are quartered at the Ebbit House. He is a well known quantity about Washington, having been a member of the House and First Assistant Post- master' General during the former Cleveland administration. He is a cor- dial, genial gentleman socially, but politically, he believes that only demo- crats should be put on guard and in- herit the promises. Opinions differ as to the necessity of an extra session. The concensus seems to be that one will have to be called as early as September or October, if not earlier. The usual extra, or executive session of the Senate, will be immedi- ately convened. Democratic Senators and Congress- men are sharply divided on financial and revenue questions. It is generally believed about the capital that the party will remain divided on silver and hotly so on tarifi, but. that in the end, the free trade element of the party will succeed in entirely destroying the Mc- Kinley tarifi‘ and stamp out the repub- Iican’s cardinal principle of protection. President Harrison has sent in his first veto of the session. It was a bill aifecting United States Marshals and District Attorneys in Alabama, and only of interest as being his only veto this session. ‘ There is much merriment and some soreness among democratic Congress- men, at the peculiar construction of Mr. Cleveland’s cabinet. Senator Mc- Pherson of New Jersey, is credited with the remark that “the democrats have the next Senate and House and a ma- jority in the Cabinet.” A democratic member of the House waggishly said, “We have the Senate, the House and all but two members of the Executive department,” meaning of course, the President and Secretary of State Gresham. It is one of the pathetic sides to high official position, that probably no occu- pant of the White House ever departed therefrom with fewer sincere, warm, social or personal friends than Presi- dent Harrison. In this he is not to be blamed, for as a Republican Senator expressed it—“ President Harrison in his refrigerating qualities, is .just as God made him.” ‘ ' There is no end of “kicking” among Congressmen of all parties, who have constituents plying them for their aid in hurrying up their long delayed pen« sions. because of the fact that all busi- ness Is to be suspended in the Pension office for ten days or two weeks, in or- der that this great building may be grelpared for the impending Inaugural ‘a . The House Committee investigating the Whisky Trust, recommend in its report that the duty on imported liquors be reduced from $2.50 to $1 per gallon and that the tariff on all goods be reduced whenever it is found that they are influenced by a trust or com- bination. ‘ A funny- case came up before the . Washington Police Court Tuesday af- ternoon. A poor colored man was ac- cused of stealing. a neighbor’s goat of the male persuasion. Uncle’s defense was this—“ Now, Massa J edge, I wuz full and I b’li’ve de goat stole me. He got his rope ’round my legs and ran in- to my yard wid me, ’deed he did J edge.” The Judge said he seemed to have been so tangled up with the goat, it was im- possible to determine whether it was he or the goat that was stolen and so ordered Uncle’s discharge. . Berkshire Mills Burned. The Berkshire mills on North Wash- ington avenue, Bridgeport, one of the oldest wooden structures in the city, was burned to the ground shortly after midnight this morning. The fire was unquestionably of incendiary origin, as it started simultaneously in half a. dozen places. The fireman experienc- ed considerable trouble in making con- nections, owing to frozen hydrants. e mill was a four story wooden structure about 60 years .old. The foreman of the mill said that it contain; ed 5,000 bushels of oats. 600 barrels of flour, 850 sacks of flour and 700 bushels of wheat. The plant was the property of the A. L. Winton estate and was valued at be- tween $30,000 and $40,000. Geo. L. Winton, is the trustee of the estate. The plant was insured ,for 810.000- The amount of insurance formerl was $20,000, but had recently been re uced. The bright, spicy and newsy Win. dhes beenenlarfed.
