Theie is little doubt that the previous
question" will come in the Senate of the
United States before many years. There
have been many attempts to introduce 1t
since the formation of the government, al
though the need of 1t was probably never
shown so thoroughly as during the present
session. In 1883 there was strong attempt
made in this direction. President Harrison
was then Senator and member of the
committee on rules. With Senator Frye he
advocated the adoption Of the previous
question" The subject was debated con-
siderably in the committee. Sherman of
Ohio, German Of Maryland, and Harris of
Tennessee opposed and the proposition was
defeated, 3 to- senator Sherman has been
made to see the necessity of such rule since
the obstruction of this session began, and is
on record as favoring change now.
There was time when jeremiah o'Dono-
van Rosa was name to conjure by. There
was time when the policy Of dynamite and
destruction which he advocated In his blood
thirsty paper, United Irishman, had some
solid support. But times have changed since
then. For long time past Rosa has been
out of the range Of public vision but those
who thought of him, thought of him as
manufacturer of dynomite in secret places
ana a plotter against peace In Ireland. How
much plotting he is doing cannot be told, but
he has evidently retired from the dynamite
business. He is In fact harmless CONNER
cial traveller, a seller of cigars, tobacco and
smokers supplies for firm In New York
city. Thus do ideas and men change always.
The dynamiter and agitator of today be-
comes commercial traveller or the keeper
of fruit stand tomorrow and the enterprises
that are designed to crush the despots of the
world are directed by new set of pilots az.
tuated by new motives.

The Aroostook Republican after short
period of silence has again opened the short
line campaign with its usual vigor. After
spending several weeks in attacking the
men who 1t is claimed promised to build the
road and have so far failed to take the first
step, the Republican makes the suggestion
that the Aroostook people build the road
themselves without any outside assistance.
For a country as rich as Aroostook is 1t
seems as though the amount required to do
the work. $500. 00O would be easy to raise,
and surely there are business men enough in
the county to direct the enterprise, after
the money is raised. On the whole this last
idea of the Republican seems to be more
likely to reach some tangible result than the
plan of campaign first outlined.

HOW To PREPARE FLY PAPER.
Almost any sticky substance spread upon
paper will answer for catching flies, but if
you have soft spot in your heart and do
not want to see the flies suffer for long
time use poison. Cooley's fly paper Is made
as follows: Take syrup, honey or dissolved
sugar and add about one ounce to each
pound weight of yellow tersulphide Of ar
senic and spread upon fly paper with a
brush. Redwood's fly paper is made by boil
ing one half ounce of quassia chips for ten
minutes in pint of water Strain and add
four ounces of molasses. The flies will
drink this and soon die.

The upward movement came to an end to- ward noon and the prices slowly but steadily melted awayNntil toward two o'clock when most of the early gains had been wiped out. Late in the day, however, good buying again appeared in the list and a change in the temper of the speculation occurred which sent prices in the last hour up to and beyond the level of the best figures of the forenoon. The movement gained force as the time wore along and the close was made on an active business and at about the best prices of the day.

West Haven vs. Picked Nine.
 The ball team from West Haven had a complete walkover in their game yester- day afternoon with the picked team from the players of the Amateur league. The Amateur league men were never in it from the start and the way they piled up errors made the few spectators present very weary. The game was said to be for the amateur championship of the city and the West Haven team clearly demonstrated their right to the honor of the title. It vas long and tedious game and un- marked by any particular features on either side. The score by innings was as follows:

Fenn.
 The Hickman divorce muddle was set tied by Judge Fenn yesterday. Last Feb 1 ruary Martha Ann Hickman of this city l brought non-support case against her i husband, William Hickman, before Judge Pickett. Mrs. Hickman told bitter tale The defense claimed that the husband was not legally man and wife. The woman had been married in England before con- ing to this country. Hickman married her in Hamden in 1877 and she had not been divorced. It also came out that she had been married third time, and hus- band No. 9 was living ct the time of the third marriage and there had been no divorce. Judge Pickett testified that Mrs. Hickman in the city court acknowledged she was not aware that husband No. 2 was dead. He found that the woman was not legally Hickman's wife and therefore dis missed the suit for non-support. Judge Fenn granted divorce for deser- tion. MT. Hickman is ffty-two years of age and the woman is forty-fve. A divorce was granted to Mary Jane Cairns from William Cairns of Meriden for desertion and intemperance. Two minor children were given to the plaintiff. | The parties were married June IA, 1877. Plaintiffs maiden name was Mary Jane Rogers.
 l Judge Fenn decided the case of Ward | vs. Ward, in favor of the plaintiff without costs. This places the property in the hands of Margaret Ward, who dispossesses her brother.
 A judgment was given for defendant in the case of John J. Murray and wife 1 against George N. Bradley. It was a non
