one Way 10 Get a Drtnk.

A woman of small stature and uncertain carriage attempted to fix her watery eyes upon the officer in charge of the police office last night as Doorman Moore led her out of the lookup. She did not succeed in doing so, however, as the muscles of her habby face twitched so suddenly and her eyes blinked and rolled so wildly that steady gaze was out of the question She said she wanted doc tor, and when asked as to the nature of her malady she said she was convinced that she was about to give birth to A child. This an nouncement startled the brass -buttoned off cials nearly out of their senses They did not care to oficiate on any such critical occa- sion When questioned more closely the woman said she was sure she was right, but thought that perhaps little whiskey might relieve her for the moment. That cheering dose was given her. Her mind was then not so clear as to her condition, and after invok- ing Gods blessing upon the officer who had given her the drink, she was led back to the lookup, and no child was born.

AssAULr1NG A coLoRED GIRL.

Two BranfOrd Roughs Arrested For
 Brutally AssaultIng Pauline St11f-
 man, Daughter of Professor Hannf-
 bal.
 Nelson Ellis, hackman, was arraigned before Justice Fink of Branford yesterday for assaulting young colored girl, named Pauline SiIliman, who is the daughter of Professor Hannibal, the candy pedd1er, pu- gilist and policy striker. William Pendleton was arrested for compEcity in tl@ assault, but his trial was continued for the purpose of securing further evidence. ..-..-.-,.
 Miss Silliman is domestic at the Mon towese Hotel Last Wednesday night she called upon friend living at some distance from the hotel, and upon leaving the house met hack team and engaged Nelson Ellis, the driver, to take her home. After Miss Silliman took passage in his hack, he drove around to the depot and secured another customer in the person of visiting tourist, who had just arrived on the evening train and desired to be carried to one of the sum mer boarding houses in the town. When Ellis had set down this customer at his des- tination, he drove off upon side road, ac- cording to Miss Sillimans story, and outrage ously assaulted her. She claims that he was joined in the assault by William Pendleton. The young woman reached the hotel at late hour in an exhausted and half frenzied con- dition
 Ellis was brought to the New Haven coun- ty jail, being unable to furnish the $1, 900 bonds he was put under.
 Last evening the case of Pendleton was called before the justice, but owing to the fact that the State had no counsel further trial was postponed until next Tuesday.
