A FAMILY MATTER.
The Ground For Objection of a Gel tain Appointment in the Board ( DuhVfc

The Ground For Objection of a Ger tain Appointment in the Board ol Public Works.
 t'Gentlemen I think that appointment should be left with the mayor" These were the words of Mayor Sargent last eve ing at the board of public works, and were said in connection with the appointment of weigher for the stone crushed by the Connor Brothers under their contract to that effect with the city. The mayor had been previously instructed to sign that contract, which he will do after reading the document carefully, and then comes the question of the appointment of weigher. A suggestion was offered that this be left with the superintendent of streets. Mr. Sargent. objected on the ground that it would be putting too much connected with the Con- nor Bros.' contract into one family. Mir. Doyle is related by marriage to that family and last year was a member of the firm. The affair was settled by the board deter mining to make the appointment itself at the next meeting.
 The Southern New England Telephone company was given permission to lay it's wires underground from Church street to Wall street, from there to College street and then to Grove street. The permission was granted on the same conditions which allowed the company to lay its wires in 1889, namely, that the city wires, the fire and police, be laid with them The permit will not be granted until the city is ready to lay it's wires.
 Alderman Kelley spoke for the top dress ing of East street, which he said was in a miserable condition.

A TEST CASE MADE.

Judge Deming's Right to Continue
 in Office Called in Question by Hon.
 David Callahan, Counsel for John
 Condon-Condon Declared Guilty
 and an Appeal Taken to the Su-
 preme Court.
 In the common pleas court, criminal side, April term, which opened yesterday, Judge Deming presided, a jury was em- paneled, and the first case called about 10 o'clock. The case was that of James Con- don, who was put to plea on the charge of committing a breach of the peace against Patrick Donnelly in row in saloon on Locust street on November IS, 1890. Pros ecuting Attorney Gum read the complaint, but Condon refused to plea, and the court ordered plea of not guilty to be entered. This was accordingly done, and the pros Attorney David Callahan and ex-Judge Blydenburgh appearing for the prisoner. At this point Attorney Callahan, who is also one of New Haven's democratic rep resentatives to the general assembly, filed a protest against the court hearing the case, on the ground that the judge had no right to hold court after the expiration of his term, but the protest was over-ruled and the trial proceeded. A plea to the jurisdiction was then entered, which was promptly demurred to by the prosecuting attorney aud the demurrer sustained.
 The trial of the case was then proceeded with and evidence of the witnesses for the prosecution was heard. by the judge. Neither Attorney Callahan or Judge By denburgh offered any testimony for the defense, and positively declined to cross examine any of the witnesses for the state. Judge Deming then charged the jury, and they retired to sgue upon verdict. In about ten minutes the jury returned with a verdict of guilty. Attorney Callahan immediately gave notice of appeal to the supreme court in order to test the right of Judge Deming to hold his seat after the expiration of his, term on April l, the legislature having failed to appoint his successor. Sentence was deferred in Con- don's case, and he was allowed to depart on his own recognizance. The court then adjourned for month. Judge Deming in dismissing the jury said that there were between seventy-ive and one hundred cases awaiting trial, and he hoped that by the next term, in May, funds would be ob- tained in some way so that jury would be kept busy during the hot weather.

He Was Not in It-There was Merrf.
 ment Among the Chinese Residents-
 Bon TOen's Little Joke.
 Considerable merriment was excited among some of our Celestials yesterday over the developments in the case of Charles Bon Toon, a Chinaman who was arrested by Detective Brewer yesterday morning for making change with a $50 bank note of the Yale Business college. thereby causing much chagrin to Lee Geng, who keeps a Chinese laundry in Stafford Springs. The case was continued to next Saturday. It seems according to one version that Le Geng was in town re- gently and stopped to see Bon Toon on Congress avenue, and to pay bill of s. Bon Toon offered to change a $1OO bill for Le Geng. He accepted the offer, and when he left had $47 in small bills and what he thought was a note for $50. On reaching Hartford he found what the note really was, and at once once came back to town and complained to Clty Attorney Daley. The police arrest ed Bon Toon, who for his version sxnlains that the business college bill was o;ven by way of joke upon his friend. who had just won round sum from Bon Toon Ha considered it good joke upon his com. rade and thinks that he can substant;ata his assertion that it was all done in fun be being quite wag and always looking ont for fun. The name of us. Frank ths Congress avenue tea dealer, who for eighteen years past has occupied the same store on Congress avenue, was at first mixed up with the case by the police. from the fact that Bon Toon had been clerking for Frank, the fact being, however, that the latter has not been clerk for MT.

 Daniel Duffee, a nine-year-old boy, was arrested late yesterday afternoon by off cers from the precinct.
