sssurprises of Divorce.

SurprlSeS of DivOrce.S
 Arthur Rehan's excellent company of comedians gave an entertainment at the opera house last night that was highly enjoyed. Surprises of Divorces" is a farcical comedy which causes merri- ment without giving offence, and which should the observer chose to look be- neate the surface and view it seriously, will be found to convey a lesson of prac- tical significance as to one of the greatest evils with which society is afflicted. The play will be repeated this evening and is deserving of a crowded house.

COAL FOR NEW ENGLAND.
Interstate Commerce Law Severely
 Criticized.

Interstate Commerce Law Severely
 Criticized.
 In an interview with a Now York Times representative George B. Martin, president of the Empire and New Eng land Transportation company, said that New York & New England road would kill the Transportation company's busi- ness by the extension of the road to Newburg. Now he can send his barges to Newburg, get the coal just where the New York & New England road re- csives it, carry it by way of the Hudson river and the sound to Bridgeport there load it on cars, and send it over the Con- solidated road to Waterbury so cheaply as to successfully compete with the dl- rect traffic of the New York & New England road from Newburg to Water bury.
 The manner in which the interstate commerce law is applied to the coal traffic in Connecticut, says MT Martin, benefits only the railroads in an unfair competition. The Hartford Transporta- tion company delivers coal at Hartford at the rates of 90 cents and $1 per ton. Although the New York and New Eng land road rate to Waterbury and 'other points on the road (via Newburg) Is S1. 10 per ton, the road is allowed to sustain that rate and still charge only S1 per ton to Hartford in order to meet the water route competition. But if the Hartford Transportation company attempts to re- taliate by sending coal to New Britain and other points, the interstate com merce law is strictly applied, and the full rates are demanded.
 In the same way and by the co-opera- tion of the railroads the New York & New England road successfully meets competition, even at Holyoke, Mass. The road delivers coal at Holyoke, or it did recently when MT Martin last learned the rate, for $1. .65 per ton. carry ing the coal from Waterbury to Plain vile and thence by the Northampton road, for only 90 cents more than the rate to Waterbury. The Empire New England Transportation company gets the coal to New Haven for 55 cents per ton, and the Consolidated road charges $1.1O per ton for carrying the coal to Holyoke. Thus it can be seen that if the Consolidated road engaged in war fare with the New York & New England road it could seriously cripple the latter's freight traffic to certain points, though it would cut its own rates and meet with retaliation at other points, and strict enforcement of the interstate commerce law might benefit the consumers of coal.

LODGING THE LICENSE LAW.

Liquor Sold in Perfumery Bottles by
 Hartford Store Keepers.
 HARTFORD, December 12.-It has lately been discovered by Prosecuting Agent Gates that the grocery store keepers who cannot under the new law obtain regular liquor license, but have to content themselves with a licens to sell in packages, have contrived new way of avoiding it. Diminutive bottles of whiskey are to be purchased at these stores for twenty and even for fifteen cents. These contain little more than a good sized drink and for all practical purpuses answer as well as a glass of fire water sold over a bar. The bottles are of fancy pattern and unless the label were examined or the cork removed one would imagine that they contained a cheap grade of perfumery. One kind, which is quite popular, is a perfect di- minutive flask, fattened to fit the vest pocket, and holds about a glass and a half. The prosecuting agent is making some investigation but it is difficult to see how the dealers can be touched as they como within the letter of the law.
