 The case of Munson vs Gee is occupy ing the district court before Judge Brad street to-day. The case is a suit for $10O damages. January % a concert was given in the Methodist church in Watertown and George Munson was present and with other boys interrupted the entertainment by whispering, so some of the witnesses swore. One Gee reproved the boys and it is said by Mun- sons witnesses struck him. Hence the suit. There are about fifteen witnesses on each side, and considering the in significance of the case, it will be a costly one.
 A Middlebury correspondent writes: Sunday evening, about 9 o'clock, as the young people were on their way home after Rev MT Avery's evening service, James Tyler, about IS years old, was desperately attacked by two roughs who clubbed him upon the head and after knocking him down, fell upon and choked him. Robert M. Fenn and James Jackson, who were but little in advance on the road, came back to the rescue, and beat off the assailants, who fled without being identified. No reason can bo given for the assault. The assail- ants were probably Waterbury hoodlums with whom the streets of Middlebury axo covered and made unsafe, for peace full citizens from Saturday night until Monday morning, while the toughs are on their way to and from the resorts at lako Quaasapaug.

TENNYSON's HABITS.

The Poet Loves TO Read Extracts from
His Own Poems.
Like almost all authors, Tennyson does
the greater part of his literary work in
the morning hours, between breakfast
and luncheon, and sometimes breaks the
back of his work before breakfast. His in
variable habit is to take long stroll be-
fore luncheon, accompanied often by q
friend, and always by two of his dogs.
The afternoon and evening are given up
TO rest and social recreations.
The poet Is seldom as we have said,
seen in the streets of the metropolis; but
occasionally his tall, sturdy form, with his
broad soft hat and inevitable cloak, his
shaggy, griZZled shocks Of hair, his deet,
dark eyes beneath heavy brows, and
heavy gray beard, may be seen threading
the region round about st. Paul's Al
though stunning the smadding crowd"
it must not be inferred that Tennyson is
in social sense grim and gloomy.
When With few devoted friends he de-
lights in conversation, and often takes up
himself the thread of talk in fascinating
monologue; describing, sometimes, the
days of his own youth, and sometimes
talking feelingly of the eminent people
he has seen and known throughout his
long life.
Especially fond is Tennyson Of reading
extracts from his own poems to appre-
eiative listeners. Reading, is itS' says

FASHION NOTES.

Brief Points on Feminine Decorative Art
OF course, young girls aud growing
girls should not wear corsets: but when
the figure is fully developed it should be
gently held in shape by good, easy cor
set If yon will wear one so comfortable
that you may stand firmly on both feet,
and put your hand high and straight
above your head without any disagree
able sensations, it will not hurt you.
Gloves should never be rolled into a
wad or left lying inside out. Pull off
slowly, and stretch each finger TO its full
length. Mend every minute rip with
glove thread and needles, which come es-
pecially for the purpose. Wrap each pair
in tissue paper, and keep in long box
without folding.

dress manifest all around Us, girls

flower toques, which promise TO be popu-

WHITE FOR YOUNG BRIDES ONLY.
Mrs. Annie Jenness Miller thus writes
in her magazine:-ssA widow or divorce,
no matter how youthful, should never be
married Ia white gown. The white robe
is symbolicaI of original purity, and
twice donned loses its Significance as
does also the wreath of orange buds and
the flowers which are properly the pre-
negative OF the girl bride. A travelling
dress Is considered good form; but some
widows prefer rich gown of heliotrope
brocade, pale blue satin duchesse. or, IN
fact. anything that appeals to the indi-
vidual fancy Widows are sometimes
embarrassed to know what disposition to

be removed SO soon as the lady has
plighted her troth, for no man likes to be

probable that few clubs will soon be
organized.

THEATRICAL FREAKS.
An Actress Diamond Tooth--Clara
Morris Mushrooms.

Some time ago heard good story
about dentist inserting a diamond in
the tooth of sprightly actress. with
which she dazzled the dudes who night ~
pre-empted the first rows of orchestra
chairs.
1t remained for ST Paul dentist, DR..
Ellis, to actually accomplish this feat. A
short time ago lady with badly de-
cayed upper lateral incisor entered his
office and after examination the doctor
informed her that the only means of saw
the tooth would be to substitute a gold
crown. In a joking way he referred to
the diamond story and laughingly sug-
geeted that there was an excellent oppor-
tunity TO try the experiment in her case:
TO his surprise his patient, who proved
to be an actress, assented. DR.. Ellis pro-
cured small sized brilliant and imbed-
ded il in the gold crown which he built
on the remains of the natural predeces-
sor.
DECIDED HIT.
The actress is delighted with the re-
suit, and declares that the next gem in
serted shall be a carat in weight. The
stone is not conspicuous and might escape
notice altogether, although q ray of arti-
fetal light makes 1t sparkle in 4 way
likely to arouse curiosity. The actress is
the nearest sctual approach to the little
girl in the fairy story from whose mouth
gems dropped whenever she spoke. II is
hardly probable that any such fashion
will become general, although an inspec-
ton Of the jeweiled incisor shows that
the effect is Tar less startling than would
be expected.

drove out into the region of the market
gardens, where, after much inquiry, he
secured sufficient fos the great actress
needs for that day. Next day there was
