Job, rather nettled, but I'm strange to
them; nobody but Ike ever drove them.

deacon.
But they paid no heed to any COM
mand, and finally, exasperated, Job
struck them both with the goad, and
they started at full run down the road.

Job and the deacon were compelled to

"Stop EN- yourself, You old foolF'

We'll be chucked out and killedl'
shouted the deacon, as the cart banged
over stone.
The oxen were now thoroughly fright
ened and running away for fair, and
both men were badly scared and holding
on for dear life. All at once an idea
struck Job.
Say, deacon, can't you talk some sea
talk 20 EN-? That's what I've alters
heard Ike talk TO EN-" he called out as
the cart bumped along.
Brother Haines, such sea talk as I've
heard amt proper fer pillar of the
church TO repeat, and I'll call meetin' on

the deacon with as much dignity as he
could assume while holding TO the stake.

Job turned a shade or two paler.
While this was going on the oxen had
gotten over considerable ground. The
people along the road gazed in open
mouthed establishment to see two such
staid citizens going along 50 fT1riously
with an OK team, and were terribly
scandalized at their apparent hilsrity.
Ike, totally unconscious of what was
going on at home, was Flooding along
toward his chuIn's, when ne heard a
fearful clstter coming behind him. He
turned, and could hardly believe his
eyes. There came his pets Jack and

ROMAN CATHOLIC MARRIAGES
An Interesting Decision Received From
Rome.

An Interesting Decision Received From
Rome.
Word has been received from Rome
announcing the final decision of the now
famous Roman Catholic matrimonial
controversy of Grant and Kelley. 1t
declares that the original marriage of
William Grant and Mary Kelley is bind
ing and refuses the divorce that was
asked for, thus sustaining the position
taken by Father Hughes.
The story is very interesting. William
Grant and Mary Kelley of Bridgeport
were married by a Methodist minister,
though she was Il Roman Catholic. They
had six children, and before the last one
was born Grant joined the Roman
Catholic church and was baptised. Sub
sequently Mr. and Mrs Grant separated.
and, after divorce had been secured in
the Connecticut courts, Grant married
again. lie and his second wife have
three children. She is a sister of
ORourke the ball player.
Grant desired to secure also an eccles.
lastical divorce and applied to the
church authorities for it. He claimed
that the frs marriage was not binding
because the Roman Catholic church
would not recognize marriage by a
Methodist minister. The case was given
careful hearing in Hartford in 1887 by
a board over which Very Rev James
Hughes, ID. d., presided, and that board
decided that the marriage of Grant and
his first wife was valid From this
Grant appealed to the archepscopal tri-
bunal in Boston, and there the case was
reversed and a decision given for Grant
declaring the marriage was not binding.
The case was then carried to Rome for
a final decision, which was given Au-
gust II, reversing the second decision
and sustaining the first, rendered by
Father Hughes, which declared the first
marriage binding and refused the di-
vOrce.
This leaves Mr. Grant divorced by the
civil law, but not divorced by his
church law. OF course in reaching the
decision the fact that he had become a
Roman Catholic and that child or
children had been born when both
parents were of that church had its
weight. The case has been very closely
watched by Roman Catholics all over
the state and beyond it's lines and is the
first of its kind carried to Rome from
Connecticut,

CALLED OUT BY A BURGLAR.
A Resident of West Side Hill Has an
Exciting Experience

A Resident of West Side Hill Has an
Exciting Experience
E. j. Sherman, an employee of the
Waterbury Brass Co, had an exciting
experience with burglar at his home,
West Side hill, at midnight on Monday.
Mr. Sherman and his family had re-
tired. About midnight loud rapping
was heard at the door, but no one re-
sponded to the knock until it was re-
peated. Then Mr. Sherman hastily
dressed and going down stairs opened
the front door. The moment he did so
he was confronted by big man armed
with revolver and a dark lantern, who
demanded his money. Mr. Sherman
called loudly for help, then fell to the
floor. His son came to his assistance,
but before he arrived the robber had
fled.
The police have been notified and are
working upon the case, but Mr. Sherman
could give only an imperfect description
of the burglar.

REMARKABLE LAWSUIT.
A Barber Fined For Shaving Only Hal
of a Customers Face.

"A roN ohIy
of Customers Face.
There was great excitement i'll Wind
SCR Wednesday, over one of the most
remarkable suits on record. Some
weeks ago Elijah Havens, a republican,
got into a discussion with William
Dibble, a democrat, while the latter was
shaving him in his barber shop. When
Ravens was half shaved Dibble got mad
and ordered him from the shop. Ravens
brought suit for breach of contract and
appeared in court Wednesday with a six
weeks growth of beard on one cheek
and four weeks growth on the other.
Justice Albee heard the evidence and
said:
MY mind is clear that Dibble was
guilty OF a breach of contract in not
finishing the shave. Ny mind is equally
clear that he had great provocation for
not doing SO. But, while this is so,
doubt if he was right in subjechng the
plaintiff to public ridicule. 1t would
have been better to have finished shaw
ing him, and then met him IN a
meadow somewhere. l do not see how
| cad do other than find for the plaintiff,
for there was certainly breach of CON
tract, but | will make the damage nomi-
nal, for don't blame the defendant. |
therefore award damages of 50 and
order the defendant to pay the costs"
