By THE SAD SEA WAVES.

How Savin Rock Looks to Hartforders.
The Hartford Courant thus speaks of Savin
Rock in its report of the third annual reun.
eminent at the Rock on Thursday. AL
though Savin Rock does not possess some of
the advantages in the way of surf, etc., that
Newport, Watch Hill and Old Orchard have,
still 1t is very desirable place to visit. The
bathing and sailing privileges are exception
ally safe, and these two features bring many
summer tourists. There have been several
attractive cottages erected here within the
past two or three years, and In the height
of the season the place really has lively
appearance. The most popular part of the
place is 'The Grove" Every visitor goes
there sooner or later, and it is we'll to do SO,
as one can be entertained If not instructed.
It is here that the "fakirs" hold their daily
unwary. The chit him in the head and you
get one cigar" fellow is here, and does a
thriving business. The lifting machine, the
"Chinese god" scheme, and the ring throwing
all have their devotees, and the men behind
the scenes are consequently richer and hap
pier since yesterdays turnout The members
of the city government bestowed their favors
inpartially, and if an election were to be
held to-day the result would be in doubt for
some time to come. There are more photo
graph galleries to the square inch in this
locality than can be found in any other spot
of equal size in the world They were also
we'll patronized by the Hartford visitors. A
picture of one group made up of Aldermen
Mahl, Chilly and Henney, and Messrs. Harbi-
son, Goodrich, Fritz Barby of the Opera
House Cafe, futile and Lewis-would cause
a riot in some wards in Hartford. Crilly's
face looks as though the ''old Fourth" had
gone Democratic unanimously.

A Valuable Law work.

The Florida Times Union of q recent date
has the following editorial comment regard
ing valuable law work by Attorney John
Wurts, formerly of New Haven. Mr.. Wurts
was q contributor several years ago to the
JOURNAL AND COURIER of valuable and very
interesting letters from New Zealand. He has
for number of years been successfully en-
gagged In the law in Florida:
We have examined the proof-sheets of an
index. digest of the Florida Supreme court
reports, by John Wurts, Esq, of the Jack.
sonville bar. The subjects are arranged In
alphabetical order and the law as decided by
the court Is stated briefly and accurately.
Not only Is the exact point embraced in the
decision covered, but the principle which fol
lows as sine qua non ia stated with the same
precision. All cases announcing given
principle or constituting a particular statute
or rule of practice are cited together. The
book shows careful study Of each case re-
ferred to, and Ia the work of trained law.
yer. The terss but comprehensive and exact
manner of stating the point decided in each
case 10 marked feature of the work. There
10 no superfuous use of words. The discrim.
mating mind has analysed each decision and
expressed the conclusions of the court In
legal terms with the ease, accuracy and force
of the thoroughly equipped lawyer.

also that which is obiter dicta indicating, of

sort in Florida is not tho construction OF

ton Of common law Drfuciplaa which the
practitioner aud the Judge of every state
must find of daily use. The fact IL evident
that the book is the result of great labor, ex-
haustive in every detail, extending over a
period of years. The further fact that Mr..
Wurts stands in the front rank of the pro.
fsssion, was highly Endorsed by the best PEG.
pie of tho country for the position of United
States district judge, and once had his hand
on that high judicial Office, should commend

Welles street, Hartford, was struck by the
11:o5 Shore Line express from this city in
