A CROWDED COURT RooM.-The Municipal
Court room was crowded yesterday morning by
an interesting crowd, expecting to hear the case
of John Goddard, who is charged with an in
tent to kill Charles Lambert. The crowd was
disappointed in this respect, for the case went
over until afternoon, when the respondent was
admitted to bail in the sum of $4,000, until
next Tuesday morning, when he is to
have hearing. The company gathered
however, were entertained with the case of the
Independent Club This is the case where the
sheriffs went into private club room on Plum
street, last Saturday night. Not finding any
one behind the bar they began to open some of
the &c private boxes in the room. Out of 80
opened, eleven of them contained liquor, which
they seized and search and seizure process
was commenced against Messrs. Erfer &
Daley, who had charge of the room. The
members of the club cl aimed the liquors seized
and said that the respondents had nothing to
do with it. The Judge reserved his decision.
The members whose boxes were broken open
say they shall hold the officers responsible for
the damage done. The case occupied the most
of the forenoon and attracted good deal of at.
tention, as the club is composed of well-known
business men here and in this vici nty.

LIFE INsURANcE.-The public now realize
the advantage Of Life Insurance and the neces
sity for ordinary precaution in selecting a COM
pany to insure in. A careful examination of
the statement of the Etna Life Insurance Co.
of Hartford, Conn.,. in another column will con-
vince the reader that it is entitled to the fullest
confidence. With assets of 1924, 141, 1850, it
has a surplus of nearly $4,000 600 by the high
est standard of reserve required by any state
law. The small amount of real estate owned
proves the absence of investments in expensive
buildings, as well as tho character of its large
mortgage loans, and the increased market
value, large amount of interest realized, with
its prompt payment (only $55,9SO being over
due) Indicate clearly the superior management
of all the company's assets. The stability and
economy of the Etna has never been question
ed (even in the searching Investigations of the
past year,. And the Insurance Commissioner
Of Connecticut, who has been insured in it for
over twenty-five years, justly says of this old
ard time-tried company, mo words are too
strong to express my faith in it," And we
can cheerfully commend it to public favor.

the Mohawk, as far west as Utica, and
embracing parts of eleven counties.
During the coming season the TRAN
gulation will be carried across the
entire State. The work is of the
highest order of accuracy, every
important point being located with
absolute precision. Thus far the
survey has not found single town
where it was represented to be on the
old maps, many OF them being mile
out of the way.
In Central America the reconnois-
sance Of Lieutenant Wyse of the
French navy has exploded the reports
which the French have held to lin
spite of the abundent testimony of
American explorers to the contrary
that a ship canal without locks was
possible across the Isthmus Of Darien.
His conclusion is that no navigable
channel is possible between Tuyra
and the OtraJO without locks or tun-
neling. The researches of DIR. LIE
Plongeon among the ruins of Chichen
liza, Uxmal, and AXE in Yucatan,
and on the once famous islands of
Azumel and Mujeres, are mentioned
with commentator; and the doctors
claims to the discovery Of written and
other evidences of communication
between the people of Yucatan and
the ancient people OF the west coast
of Africa are favOrably noticed.
No real work was done in Arctic
regions; considerable attention, how
ever, is given to Barry's reports with
regard to the finding of relics of Sir
John Franklin's Inflated expedition,
near the Gulf of Boothia, north Of
Hudson's Bay. Sir Leopold McClin-
took has intimated to the British
Admiralty that Barry's story is not
worth much; Justice DAILY, on the
other hand, is convinced that Barry
not only means to tell the truth, but
has sufficient acquaintance with Els.
quimaux speech to make his report of
Esquimaux stories trustworthy. He
believes, further, that the informa-
ton Barry gives is sufficient to Justify
the sending OF an expedition to exam
ile the spot where the Netchelli say
the white men died, and where their
calrn is containing books and papers.
Stanley's conquest of the Congo is
next reviewed at great length, and his
course in fighting his way. when op.
posed, is unreservedly justified. Sum-
ming up the whole of Stanley's work
in Africa, the speaker said, cit may
truthfully be said that no man has
ever, in explorations upon the land,
done so much for the acquisition of
geographical information" and with
respect to the Congo and the Nile.
"He has solved an enigma that has
attracted the attention of the world
for ages, and has fixed his name in the
foremost rank of geographers, ex-
plorers, and Travellers
