The Juror Reunion.

The newspapers of the day seem, with great unanimity, to have been inexpressibly shocked because the late Malley jurormen got together one day at Savin Rock for re- union But wherefore? Derby's one-sixth of that much squibbed at and moralizsd over twelve say that during the several months that they were associated together in the performance of 8 public duty personal friendships were formed that they wished to perpetuate. They were not celebrating the unfortunate taking off of Jennie Cramer, nor the Malleys' acquittal for complicity in the same. They were not responsible for the odium that attached to the case. and they sought no notoriety. If the newspapers had kept away their clans would have been eaten quietly and nobody would have known any thing about it, except, perhaps, the lone oysterman Curtis, the man at the wooden horses, and their landlord. If they wished to shake hands once more over the succulen. clam, whose business was it, anyway, but their own?-V Vdlley Sentinel.

A Fatal Lack of Presence of Mind.

The hearing before the jury of inquest on the death of Mrs. McGourn, of New Britain, closed Tuesday afternoon. It was shown that the death of the unfortunate woman was caused by her lack of presence of nind in standing in front of the approaching engine. If she had not hestated as she was crossing the track she might have escaped death. The railroad officials were not at all at fault. The engineer could not see the woman until he came around the curve and was within few feet of her. It is curious coincidence that the husband of Mrs. McGourn was killed by the cars in Ireland.

Mir. Charles H. Trowbridge, of Milford,
 presented a very handsome gold watch to his
 wife short time ago, and few days since Mrs. Trow bridge detached the watch from the chain and laid the former on center table while she furnished the chain. Her little son soon after came in with toy ex- press wagon, and seeing the watch took it and placed it therein. Leaving the house he was afterwards met by another boy named Williams, who induced young Trowbridge to accompany him to barn, where he secured possession Of the watch. Williams pried the watch open with 8 knife, broke the rim, and damaged the tlmepiece to the amount of $S25.
