 Disgusting State of Affairs in Middle
 bury.
 The citizens committee at the police court this morning were treated to a little circus, not down on the bill. Attorney Graves, Judge Cowell and Fred Gertz played the prominent parts, with Attorney Burpee putting in word now and then to keep the ball rolling. Gertz had been ar. rested for keeping an unlicensed dog, and had up to the court hour made advances to settle, but finally could not agree as to the amount he ought to contribute to the treas ury. Attorney Graves was engaged. The prose cution wanted to put over the case to next week, but MT Graves objected. Ills it right Is it right P he asked, and he swung his arms around in the air and hit the table II appeal to your honor's con- science and intelligence" and he glared around. sHere is my client hero in court. Come ont here Fred and show yourself. J The prisoner presented himself, and MT Graves continued: "Here is my client. He comes here without vest; should his case be put over?" The judge thought'it should, and this ruling prevailed, and the case went over to Wednesday.
 George Grisz and William Zipho, two yOuIuS IrOm LOUISVILLE, ny, WoHo oAo1 Sou with sleeping in and beating their way on cars on the New England road, and John McVeigh was charged with the same offense against the Naugatuck road.

 A slightly built child, who looked to be about ten years old, was charged with breach of the peace against his mother She said he was very bad boy, and had threatened to thrash her within an inch o1 her life. He had been in the reform schoo once. Judge Cowell advised the mother te take the child across her knee, and he ad- journed the case for 30 days.
 A disgusting, dirty, and disgraceful fam fly row between the Judd and Derne1 families and Edgar B. Foster, of Middle bury, was fully well aired. It would seen from the testimony that all sense of de cency was dormant in the principal of th' affair. Foster was charged with an assault on Max Derner, whom he claimed had uset most disgusting language to him in th' presence of Mrs Judd and Mrs Derner Mir Burpee said it would be good thinI if all of them would get out into fielt and exterminate each other, and Judg Cowell thought they ought to be drowned Why Judd should keep such a hummer a Foster about his house he didn't under stand.

Clio nd Teleeranhr.

Aremarkable experiment in signaling
with electric lights was recently made by
the officers of two vessels of the British
navy, the Orion and Espoir, off the port
of Singapore.
The Espoir had sailed from that port
for Kong Long, leaving the Orion in the
harbor Of Singapore. When the Espoir
was sixty miles distant the Orion sent
her q message by means Of the electric
light. But can a light be seen sixty
miles at sea- Certainly not, in its direct
rays; but the Orion threw brilliant
blaze of light upon the clouds, and the
reelection of this lightwas distinctly seen
on board the Espoir. ..
More than this, the Orion, having
tn own upon the clouds regular message
zbYI means of successful flashes. this mes
sage was read and unGersto d on board
the EsPoiE The question has been asked
whether this means of communication
might not be made Of practical adYan-
tage. Il would depend, it IS true, upon
the, condition of the atmosphere, and
upon cloudless nights there would be
nothing to reflect from, but it seems en-
tirely practit able to make the light of the
most important lighthouses visible much
farther at sea on cloudy nights by pro-
vlding them with an apparatus enabling
them to throw a series o reflections upon
the clouds. ~ osttl's Companion.

A Wonderful r rlnting Machine.

The american Bookmakeq describes a
machine which takes in paper at one end
a nd turns out completely bound books
at the other at the rate of 5000 copies an
hour. There are. three great iron CYL
inders, segmental in form and each
having a diameter of six feet, and
weighing about three tons each. On one
of these are the forms which do the
printing in quadruple series, the other
two acting solely as impression cylinders.
In combination with the cylinder carry
ing the printing forms are ink fountains,
form and distributing rollers, while in
combination with the impression cylin-
ders are novel appliances for handling
automatically, revising, assembling,
folding, covering and delivering the
complete books. This remarkable con-
trivance requires eight tons Of paper.
with corresponding amount of printing
ink, and this it turns into books in a
single day, and it requires twelve box
cars, of 80, 600 pounds capacity each, to
transfer the output for single week
This machine is built in Philadelphia by
its inventor and patentee, at whose
ablishment the visitor may see in daily
and nightly operation no less than six of
these mammoth machines turning with
surprising RAJ ldity and regularity their
miles OF. paper into printed matter ready
for the perusal of the reader. y IT'D III

III lifeless form Of the active young man.
They brought him III the car and laid
him On one Of the improyised couches.
Life was not extinct, but it would have
been ere long had he not been found. He
had evidently reached some house and
was on his way back, for clasped IN his
arms when they found him in 3 huge.
drift, where he had sunk exhausted, were
five loaEes of bread and whole ham.
When the little schoolmarm saw that he
was not dead she frightened up Won
derfully and was as brisk as ever.
They rubbed the active young man
with snow and finally brought
him back to consciousness. In the
excitement of restoring the active young
man, the provisions, for which he had
risked his life, were forgotten, until
some one discovered the escort IN one
corner of the car cutting great slices of
the ham with his jack knife. HeWas
Immediately requested to desist, and
was escorted out on the platform of the
car by two or three strong men. A few
moments after he was seen to crawl out
tof q snow bank.
Somehow OF other the little school
marin seemed to get near the active
young man, and those standing around
were surprised to see that they knew
each other, and as the little schoolmarm
seemed able to take care of him the
other people gradually gathered at the
t1other end of the car and left them alone,
casting knowing looks in their direction
every once in q while. a short time
Iafterward the little schoolmarm tod q
lady, whose acquaintance she had
formed, that she and the active young
man had been lovers, and had quarreled,
and that the escort had come between
them, she thinking that he was q nice
young man, but now she saw his true
character, and that all had been made
tlup between the active young man and
herself, and everybody voted that this
was as it should be.
Someone CHANGED to look out of the
window and discovered that the storm!
was over, and Just then in the distance
was heard the shrill, clear whistle Of the
locomotive. Help was coming. Jim
tried to blow an answering blast on the
whistle Of old Seventy three, but steam
was low anu the WHISTLE lTOLGu 1dSI III
few moments, with much putting and
whistling, three powerful engines forced
their way through the drifts. Then
there was shouting and hurrahing. Five
hundred men soon cleared the snow from
the bound train and the passengers,
with light hearts, were again on their
journey. .n< hE:.zx
/ When the train drew up 1.-THE sta
ton, the baggage-master tapped the es-
cort on the shoulder. and said: "Here is
q box that came from your store" and
handed him the broken cracker box.
The escort looked at the box until the
truth dawned upon him, and then with
something that sounded very like cuss
word, flung the empty box in 3 snow
drift and walked rapidly away, with the
laughter of misconceptions of the train
ringing in. his ears. g, \
Sometime soon after the school term
closes, there is to be q wedding in which
the little schoolmarm and the- active
young imam will play the prominent
partsIand take upon themselves for life

ALL kinds Of rot seem to be good
enough for Protection arguments. The
Mills bill takes the tariff off of raw cocoa,
out OF which chocolate is manufactured
Vandeyer, with the logic of Dogberry,
declares that to place raw cocoa on the
free-list would destroy the chocolate
manufacturing industry in this country,
and our esteemed contemporary, the
Tribune, considers this bright argument
of our venerable repre- sentative worthy of
being embalmed in one of its intellect
ually occult editorials. Let us re-
duce this bright sally to a formula.
Cocoa is foreign production; it is the
raw material for a prosperous manufac-
ture in this country, and gives consider.
able employment to labor; the tariff
upon its admission is two cents pound J;
that tariff makes the manufactured arti-
Gle come 80 much dearer to the consu.
mer than it would if it were taken off.
Now for the conclusion-if the tariff is
taken off, it will cause greater demand
for chocolate, because it will be cheaper
and greater number Of people will be
able to indulge in it; argal, the chocolate
manufacturers will be ruined, by what p
a glut of custom! Sapprement! there's
wisdom for you!
