 The case of John Marr and Jerry Law Tor, for breach of peace. were continued until tomorrow.

 The court room was then cleared and in the superior court room the seduction case of John Bowe came up, Attorney O'Neil appeared for the plaintiff and At torney Kellogg for the defendant. Only the plaintiff, MissjMary ..O'Keefe, girl 19 years of age, was put on the stand. She confessed to her intimacy with Bowe, dating from the first of July last. Attorney Kellogg would not allow his client to go on the stand and the argu- ments on the amount of bond consumed some little time. Judge Cowel made the bond S60O in the bastardy case and $500 for seduction. Bonds were furnished, and the two cases will come up, one Tn the district court in January and the other at the April term of the superior court. r~s-cu

MORTUARY WREATH.

A Curious Article Made by An Old
 Lady of This City
 A Connecticut Associated Press dis patch to the DEMOCRAT says:
 Mrs Judge Shipman of Hartford gives description of mortuary wreath which is to be seen in Waterbury, Conn. The wreath is the work of an old lady who in herself is as strange as the article is unique. The woman whose work it Is and on whose parlor wall it hangs, made both frame and wreath in | memory of her husband. who died about four years before she began the con struction of this odd piece of work. She made 1t not only of relics belonging to her late husband, but what is stranger yet, of articles which belonged to the wives which preceded her. The frame is of putty into which while soft the widow placed among others the follow ing articles: In the center of the top cross piece are, to use her own words, l s:hls' spectacle case; under this is a small vial half filled with pills which as she again expresses 1t "he had not taken" Then there are stones of all sizes and shapes winch it may readily be supposed that ''he' treasured. Along side in the now hard putty is "his'' jack-knife, piece of hoar-hound candy which ''he had not eaten," small glass for measuring medicine, buttons of all kinds from his clothes, a number of watch keys, small bottle filled with cheese ''made by his first wife, as the widow puts it. Then she has put another curiosity be- side it labeled smelling bottle used by l the. wife before me-" The spaces be- ltween 1hese articles are filled in with cherry and plum pits and nuts of differ ent kinds. Enclosed in the frame is a picture of ''him", whose memory the wreath is supposed to keep green. The wreath above the photograph is made ot flowers and leaves. each made either oi some part of 'his' coat, vest, pants, or suspenders, neckties, hats or shoes The shirt in which he died is honored by having made from it showy bird toe wonderful and strange for description Just outside the wreath are placed sus- bender buckles and watch chains. A small festOon is made of the ''hair O1 the mother of his first wife," Some ot the hairs which made up "his'' capillary adornment have been made into tendrils and the stamens of one of the flower. i are made from material taken from tho lining of his coffin. On one side of tht wreath is bunch of raisins "he" bough, her the winter before he dled saying ''now don't cook any but eat every one. Balancing the raisins on the other sid. are three wires each supporting one o "his" teeth, and behind them is hi tooth pick.

"Wife for wifa.o

MT John A. Stephans, well known to lovers of melo-drama, commehced a weeks engagement last night. He has departed somewhat from his former style of plays in the selection of such a drama as "Wife for Wife," It gives him a large field in which to display his abilities as an accomplished and finished actor. The play is full of interesting situations. 1t is intensely sensational, but the drama is new and startling in all it's details and is presented with an action which makes it thoroughly ap- preciable. e.AWashington Post.

BRIDGEPoRTs DARING BURGLARS
Drag a Safe Distance of Milo Throu&h the Peincipal Streets

Drag a Safe a Distance of a Mile
 Through the Principal streets
 BRIDGEPORT, December 23-One of the most daring burglaries ever perpe- trated in this city came to light yesterday morning. A grocery store situated on the corner of East Main and Walter streets, occupied by the Village Store company was broken into between and 5 o'clock by smashing a front window and removing the lock from the front door. A small safe weighing about 500 pounds was taken out and dragged by a rope through various streets to the north end of the town, over mile from the scene of the burglary. The burglary was committed within stones throw of the second precinct police station and was discoveredsby an officer, who with others followed the tracks of the safe until they found it in the cellar of the house occupied by Patrick Riel On searching the house John Connolly al Edward Burns, two crooks, were found asleep i'll one room. Each had a loaded revolver grasped in his hand, and there were number of dynamite cartridges in thir pockets. They were arrested, together with Riel and his wife. The safe was not broken into. The police for some time past have been satisfied that Connolly and Burns were among the gang which has been committing recent burglaries, but they were unable to get any evidence against them.
 In the city court to-day Connolly and Burns waived examination and were held for the superior court, under bonds of $1 ,000 each. MT and Mrs Riel were discharged.
