A Dtmerant Matter.

Lawyer Judd, of Meriden, son of MT. Judd, of Stratford, has returned to the law office in Meriden, where he was engaged, having established his innocence of the charge of robbirg his fathers safe to the satisfaction of his employers. Young Mir. Judd's explanation Is that he took about $9o from his fathers safe and left home early to reach his office in Meriden, and his father, missing the money and not knowing who had taken it, concluded that it had been sto- len. He called Detective Arnold, of Bridge port, and told him about it, and he, without saying to Mr. Judd where he was going, came to Meriden and saw his son. When Arnold told Mr. Judd, ST., wbat he had done he was very indignant when he learned that Arnold had suspected his son. The pantry window is kept open all the time, night and day, and therefore spells the pretty story of the spider web discovery. The money taken had been in the house 8 long time. The amount in- stead of being $l60 was about $90, and there has been more money than that in the house all the time for ten years.

The Liquor DeaIers' Alleged Meeting,

To the Edter of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 In your issue of the 22nd appeared an &C., count of a liquor dealers meeting which if true was very startling. The article in your paper quoted from the Register was entirely false. The liquor dealers did not, and do not wish to boycott Strong, Barnes, Hart & Co., or anyone else; although great many holding certain offices ought to have been boycotted long ago. The allusions made with regard to P. Maher, president, and Doyle, secretary, are simply nonsense, and could only have their birth in the excited brain of some of New Haven's dude re- porters. I can truly say, for the infor- nation of these newsmongers that the liquor dealers have not yet formed an association, but are about to form one which shall make s'tyrants tremble" and ''blue laws disappear forever. Aye, ere the winter frost hangs out it's shingle on the elm trees of the city The liquor dealers know the law. and are willing to obey it; but as the majority of them are taxpayers, they are not willing to have the police department dressed in plain clothes to look after them, while the property of eitizens en their beats is perhaps neglected.

A wretched Life,

Yesterday the police officers visited the premises No. 59 Hill street, which were oc- Cupied by Bridget Miller and her boy Fred die, about six years of age. The woman was drunk and the boy was looked up in room.
 There was nothing in the house to eat but a few crusts of bread. The bedstead was broken, the premises were dirty and unin- habitabIe and greater evidence of squalur and wretchedness has not been seen in this city for years. The mother and boy were taken to the alnshouss that they might be washed and fed. The boy will probably be sent to the Tyler City Home for Neglected Children,
