The Court Record.
supreme Court Deot.,On.,

OGCAAAOAA1s
 Twelve years or more ago the town of Hebron voted to guarantee $2s, ,000 of the second mortgage bonds of the Air Line rail road. The meeting was held on the 3Oth of September, under warrant taken out on the 26th. It was held by the town that this did not satisfy the five days notice required by law, and that the meeting
 was not a legal town meeting. Suit was
 brought by the Brooklyn, N. r., Trust
 company, into whose hands the bonds had fallen, to compel the town to guarantee them, It has been pending in the courts. in one shape or another, for several years. The
 Supreme court of the State now decides that the notice for the town meeting was not.suf- 1 fcisnt, and that this action is not binding on the town, which cannot be compelled to guarantee the bonds. Principal and interest combined, the amount which this decision
 saves to Hebron must be at least $60, ,000. ing.
 Thomas Powers, vagrancy, sixty days and l $6 IS costs. Minnie Fenton, lascivious car riage, noIle James Conway, assault and bat l tery, continued till Saturday.
 Court Notes.
 The report of the clerk of the civil side of the City court shows an increase of four printed pages to the docket. The report for last month shows alSO an increase OF Du6l-
 ness, most of it being for the criminal side of the court. The receipts were $605. 62 at the
 court; from jail $334, 12 and from the Su.
 perior court $97 45. The later item comes in part from the Epps and Clemens abortion cases now pending 1n
 the Superior court. There were witnesses | from Hartford and other expenses herewith. 1 The outgo for the month was, for witnesses $I76, for sundries $429. 74. This apparent | y large item under the head of sundries is
 made up from payment of fees for the coun- ty prosecuting office, for arrests in Wood | bridge.and near country towns, in some
 cases the use of team being necessary; a few necessary books for the library, some
 furniture aud the bills of the jailer. The
 balance paid the city treasurer was $431 S6: The. case of lascivious carriage against Minnie Fenton, the girl whose mother has
 been bound over to the Superior court for
 adultery, was nolled by Judge Deming yes
 terday morning. The girl had evidently been I led astray by 8 vicious mother and the father was anxious that his daughter should | be given another chance to reform.
 | Thomas Powers is the name that vagrant well known to the police under the name of
 Thomas Hogan gave in the City court yester- 1 day morning. The evidence that he had been l demanding food gratis from several persons about the city was convincing, and Thomas
 was sent to jail for sixty days.

The town authorities, upon the recommen- dation of Dr. White, have decided. te release from the almshouse Thomas Burke, who in 1880 was sent to the State prison for three years, having been convicted for the third offense of theft. A week ago he was released. having, on account of good be- havior, had five months deducted from his sentence. As the prison authorities oonsid- cred the man to be insane he was brought to this city by S. H. Taylor of Hartford, agent of the State Prison association, and placed in charge of the town authorities. Burke has friends in New York who he says will take care of him, and as Dr. White says he is not insane, Superintendent Sanford sent him there on last nights boat

Rumored Tragedy at tho Twin Lakes
 Rumor has it that something of mystery surrounds the drowning of Thomas Owens, of New York, at the Twin Lakes, near Salis- bury, Tuesday night. He was young man of wealth, about 25 years old, and was camp ing out with party. It is said that he start ed across the lake in company with colored man who was to row him over, and that the man returned after some time and. declared that Owens stood up in the boat and pitched over into the water, sinking instantly and not coming to the surface. again, and that there were no bubbles or disturbance to indi- cate the spot, and though he rowed around for some time he was unable to aid the drowning man or see any trace of him after he went down. The colored man endeav- ored, it seemed, to carry the idea of suicide, but as Owens wore valuable jewelry and the mans story is rather queer, it is thought that possibly there might have been foul play.

Mr. Editor-We feel it our duty to write you what the OUrICURA remedies have done little boy who terribly afflicted with Salt Rheum, scro ing we could give him helped him until we tried CUTICURA, which. after using quite quantity began to help him and gradually cured him, until he is now as fair as any child. His body completely cred and his face and hands swelled very badly We had no comfort with him !; it was much work to take care of him, and he suffered so. We began to treat him when he IS months old, giving him at first 10 drops of the CUTICuRA REsoLvENT at time, bathing in warm water and CUTICURA SOAP, and ap- plying CUTIoURA carefully to the entire body. He is SK years old and is perfectly we'll We have not written before because thought it might appear again, but 1t has not, and very thankful.

q month since the couple resolved 70
marry. Miss McHorney had no trouble in
obtaining the consent OF her father. Cspt
John McHorDey, formerly Captain Of the
Fourth Precinct Police OF Jersey City, bot
young Wells found breakers ahead when
he broached the subject to his father.
Wells, sr., strongly objected TO q union OF
the two families on any ground, but es
pecially on the ground that his son Vas not
able TO support himself, 70 say nothing OF

New YORK, July lin reference to the
recently published reports, the contempla-
ted changes in hours OF labor. salaries, etc..
of the employees of the Western Union
Telegraph Company, careful investigation
develops the following facts. The Company
has had in contemplation for some time
the adoption OF new rules for the manage
ment OF its business. The committee hav'
ing the matter in. charge have been
holding meetings every week for the
past three months, and have finally made
their report, which has been adopted by
the company. One Of the most important
rules in the new code is that of determin-
ing the hour of duty and the manner OF
paying for extra. service, the settlement OF
which questions has heretofore been left
largely with the superintendents OF the
company, whose practice has varied ac-
Cording to the requirements OF business,
affected by climatic and other considera-
tiOns. TIE following is the rule adopted:
The Order,
. At all independent Western Union offices
which may be required to keep open all
day Sunday, nine hours actual service in
the day. six days in the week and seven
in the week, will constitute a days work.
All service in excess of the above named
hours including Sunday, will be regarded
extra and be paid for at the regular salary
on a basis of seven hours day.
The above order was issued to day and is
interpreted by some OF the operators al
having been forced from the company by
the fact that the Brotherhood OF Tele.
crsphers had demanded certain concessions
and
Threatened General Strike
unless their demands we're at once COM
,lied with. The officers of the company
tate that no demands have been made
~ on them OF the kind indicated, and that
il was necessary to issue the present order
row because its operation effects the ac-
cunts of the company for the current
month. 1t was intended to have the new
rules take effect at the beginning OF the
cOmpanys fiscal year, July lst but the
printing Of the rules had been delayed un-
ayoidably until this time. p
