County Debt increasing.
The indebtedness of the counties, though
increasing somewhat within the decade,
has not kept pace with the increase of
population, and the per capita has been
reduced from SO. AZ in 1880 to 81. 81 in 1890.
Aggregating the national, state. and
county indebted ness the per capita shows
a decrease from $40 50 in 1880 to 800. 16 in
1890, or more than one-half, and this de-
crease has been brought mainly by volun-
tary taxes.

MRS STEVENS GIVEN $500 DAMAGES.
Evidence in the case of F. M. r. Stew
ems against the town, for damages to his
place caused by cutting down the road,
was finished, arguments made and a de-
cision obtained, last week. When the
hearing before Commissioners George w
Hayes of Bridgeport, Ormel Hall of
Trumbull and Judge S. b. Sherwood of
Westport was resumed, last week Tues
day, the first witness for the town was
Benjamin b. Brothwell. He was follow
ed by keplar ii. Nichols, who thought
that the removal of the sugar naples in
front of the house would cause no great
loss, as sugar naples here were dying
rapidly. After him came Isaac b. Will
son, George Wakeman, David H. Sher-
wood, Richard b. Jennings, selectman in
charge of the work of cutting down the
road. The entire appropriation of $4,000
had been spent and there was no money
for damages. Real Estate Dealer III. II.
Scribner of Bridgeport was called as an
expert by Mrs Stevens and thought that
n damage of fully $1,000 had been caused.
Albert Wakeman of Bridgeport, who has
had experience as assessor of benefits and
damages, was another expert and
thought that the place had been dam
aged. Mrs Celestial M. Stevens, owner of
the place, testified that about 20 years
ago the place, then owned by her father,
MI Seeley, extended 10 the Junction OF
the Weston turnpike (Cllnton avenue)
and the Toilsome hill road. In return
FOR this, the turnpike company had deed
ed to Mr. Seeley strip of land in front
of the house, strengthening two roads
and also strengthening the front line of
Mr. Stevens's land. She thought the dam
age was at least $1,000. Edward IIorner
spoke of the Inconvenience caused by
the cut. George 5. Platt followed. AL
