A Life Term For the Father-The Gall
 lows For the Son.
 An Elmira dispatch to the New York Sst1s tells as follows the story of Abbott, who killed Bronson in West Haven, and of the son, who has been refused 8 new trial and is to be hung:
 The Court of Appeals to-day handed down opin- ion refusing trial in the of Joseph Abbott the killing of Reed fellow inmate of the Elmira re- formatory. There is no hope for the prisoner, ex- this week. Abbott is only about twenty years of age and sentenced to the reformatory from New York serving life sentence in the oonnsoticut State prs on in Wethersheld for murder committed about committed the crimes of which they have been con- victed Tn self defense.

Abbott rstaliated by striking Bronson the head with the back Of the tried to throw Abbott and the latter gave him second blow with the axe, following it up with one or two blows Abbott says: f" then raised h1l head and exclaimed, My God have killed you He made no answer. then laid him back on tnt 90 it might have turned out different, as could I have shown the marks where he struck me heay. blow with the board. the Q0V1l Was aL l whispering, Hide him under the barn door.' dit so, and here Rm."

Fair Haven.

Judge Hill, of the Common Pleas Court at Bridgeport, has just decided question of law that will interest every oystern1an in the State. A few years ago the Legislature passed what is known as the validating acts, to make legal the granting of land for the cultivation of oysters by. the commissioners, and it has generally been supposed, and. in fact, the commissioners have decided, that these acts covered natural growth But in 8 case brought before Judge Hill this was one of the points claimed, and the Judge decided that the validating acts do not cover natural growth The result of the decision is that oystermen who have acquired oyster land that has natural growth, even though it has been designated by the commissioners, can not hold it.
 Thomas A. Connors and Miss Mary E. Xiii oy, both of Fair Haven, were united in mar riage yesterday morning at II o'clock at St. Francis church, Rev. MT. Mulholland ofici- ating. Miss Mary Sheedy was bridesmaid | and Michael J. Connors the groom's best man. A reception followed at the residence
 of the groom's father, on Perkins street.
 Many presents were bestowed.

Dangers of Electric Light Wires From the New York Tribune1

The question of the safety of the electric light wires, at present arranged, is be- ginning to excite the attention of the fire commissioners. Yesterday one of the wires came in contact with fire telegraph wire down town the powerful current from the former flashed into the alarm box in William street, near new Chambers street. and de- stroyed it. On Monday the woodwork over the entrance of the Germania Theatre, at Broadway and Thirteenth street, was set on fire by the accidental breaking of the ma terial insulating tho wire that feeds the cleo tric lamps over the door. The unprotected wire came in contact with some lead orna ments, which were quickly melted, and the woodwork was set on fire. The fire commis- sioners fear that when the wires which are now new, become old and worn, much trouble will result.
 There is another difficulty with the. cleo tric light wires. If it should be necessary for the fremen to cut them from the roof of a burning house, they would run the risk of losing their lives in the work. It is necessa- ry to cut the wires with a wooden handled instrument to protect the man but should the wood happen to be wet, as 1t is very apt to be at fire it would become 8 conductor, and the strong electric current might kill a man, just as a flash of lightning would. The utmost care has heretofore been exercised, but serious harm may result at any moment. The fire commissioners have the matter seri- ously under discussion.
