BELLIGERENT ATTORNEYS.
District Attorney Ryan and Hiram
Johnson Exchange Blows.
Confusion in Justice Starts Court-A
One-Sided ApoIogy-Hefsen's
Fence Again.
"You're a liarin

YOU'RE liarp'
Say, if you want anything out of me
come out on the sidewaIki'
Biffi
Lawyer Hiram Johnson's chubby fist
shot out and landed on District Attorney
RyaH's pompadour, mussing it shame
fully.
OF course great confusion followed, but
the crowd which essayed to stop MIR.
Ryan from retaliating was not quick
enough, and the doughty county prose-
cutor gave his assailant genuine Corbett
jab on the forehead. The hostilities
would have continued, but Constable
Brissel jumped in between the belliger-
ent legal gentlemen and separated them.
WHAT IT WAS ABOUT.
1t happened in Justice of the Peace
Starts court yesterday afternoon. The
second trial of Road Overseer Basier, J.
w. Cox, S. S. Harding and A. Ward, for
tearing down Charles Heisen's fence, was
about to begin. Tt viii be remembered
that this fence was pulled down once be-
fore, and the Road Oyerseer and his assist
ants were arrested. Justice Henry, how
ever, discharged them. The Board of
Supervisors then ordered the fence re-
moved again (Heisen having replaced it,
and the result was another arrest for ma
licious mischief, and this time the case
comes before Justice Starr.
Before the impaneling of a jury was
commenced, District Attorney Ryan made
a motion that the case be dismissed. He
said the merits of the case had been once
passed upon, and besides this he said
the suit had been commenced on behalf
OF the people without his consent. He
was just explaining to the court that his
name had been attached TO the complaint
by some one without authority, when
lawyer Johnson called him liar-and
the tisticuffs ensued.
JoHNsoN's APOLOGY.
When the smoke of the battle had set
tied, and quiet had been restored, Mr..
Ryan called the attention of the court to
the fact that he had been inSulted in the
courts presence, and he asked that Mr.
Johnson be fined for contempt
Mr.. Johnson arose and apologiZed to
the court, but he had none for the District
Attorney.
Justice Starr accepted the apology,
overruled the District Attorneys motion
and quietly ordered the case to proceed.
After some trouble a jury was finally
impaneled, and the task of examining
the flood of witnesses who have been
summoned was commenced.
When the court adjourned for the day
a large crowd was in waiting on the side
walk, hoping that the spat between the
attorneys would be resumed there. But
the watchfulness OF the Constables cooled
the ardor of the legal men and they went
their separate ways peacefully.

FOREST FIRES RAGING.
Over $50 Acres Ravaged at High
Rock Grove.

Over $50 Acres Ravaged at High
Rock Grove.
A disastrous forest fire has been raging
at High Rock grove. It is estimated that
at least $50 acres have been burned over.
This property is largely owned by the
Naugatuck railroad, but the fire has spread
over the land of several other parties. The
mountain sides have been ravaged. The
chief damage has been done south of the
grove, the fire spreading in that direction.
Conductor Scott and Roadmaster Lane
went down from Waterbury Sunday with
sixty men to fight the fire. They worked
hard all day. Saturday about the same
number were at work.
At High Rock the growth of leaves for
several years past lies matted together in
cold mass and the fire burns in them as it
does in stump.
which had not shed its foliage the flames
would climb the tree and scatter among
the branches. The burning oak would
present beautiful appearance. 1t is be-
lieved that the fire is we'll under control,
but a large force will return to High
Rock this morning and endeavor com
pletely to stamp out the flames. Nones of
the buildings in the grove have been dam
aged. 1t has been considerable number
of years since, serious forest fire has
ragged along the line of the Naugatuck
road. In 1878 there was a large fire at
the grove, but it was not so disastrous as
the present one.-Waterbury Republican.

Second Ward Politics.

The Register the other day intimated
that good many republicans in the Sec
ond ward had become opposed to the re-
nomination of Alderman Charles S. Ham
ilton, because it was believed that he had
made the threat that if some other candi-
date were nominated in his place he would
endeavor to defeat him at the polls, and
have the ward go democratic. This was a
queer story in view of the fact that AL
derman Hamilton has for years worked
hard for the success of the republican
ticket in ward which is naturally demo-
cratic and has done his best to help re-
publican aldermen and councilmen to be
elected whether he was nominee or not.
Alderman Hamilton was asked yesterday
by a COURIER reporter if he had anything
to say concerning the matter. He replied:
''You can say there is not a particle of
truth in any such statement. I not only
never made or even limited at any such
threat, but furthermore never thought of
doing any such thing; and I will defy
anybody to produce any man who will
say to my face that he ever heard me
make or even hint at any such statement.
I have always stood by the regular re-
always expect to stand by the men who
are the fair choice of the party.
"Did you see the item in the Registers"
s'Yes, saw it, but paid very little at
tention to it as I did not think the level
headed republicans of the ward would
take any stock in it, but would pass it by
as one of the aippant things which are
said at election times, which sensible men
heed not and when weighing a candidate
look at what he has done for the ward
while he has been in Office rather than
pay any heed to what is said about him by
an opposition paper"

Mr.. Belknap's Experience.

A few days ago the water pipes leading
into the Belknap Manufacturing company's
on Water street became clogged and the
works were without water A force of
men were set to work making excavations
from the premises to the water main on
water street. The work was done under
supervision Of Charles Belknap, of the COM
pany. When the main was reached sew
eral large cells were found to be the cause
of the lack of water. The men could not
displace the cells. At last Mr.. Belknap
jumped into the ditch and with large
pole rammed at the cells and succeeded in
displacing them, only to have the water
rush in his face and drench him from head
to foot thoroughly before he could be res
cued from his unpleasant situation. He
does not desire to have the experience re-
peated. Post.

SWest Haven JUSTICE, With a Big j I.

SWest Haven Justice'' With a Big j !.
To the Editor OF the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
The action Of the West Haven authori-
ties in arresting and heavily fning several
bicyelists on Sunday last must, from all
the facts in the case thus far published,
strike the generality of people "a species
of meanness of which the officials repre-
senting the little borough of West Haven,
and its citizens generally ought to feel
thoroughly ashamed. According to the
published account of the affair the young
men who had the temerity to trespass
upon the sacred soil of West Haven astride
of "bike" were as innocent, on this occa-
sion, of having violated the ''laws'' made
and provided, regarding bicycle riding on
sidewalks. as babe in its mothers arms.
As they were speeding along path in the
brush near Savin Rock, seldom intruded
upon by human beings and no harm could
rabbit or other wild animal, with which
that "burg" is said to be infested, happen
ed to jump in front of their machines.
We have often heard of ''West Haven
justice" and this we regard as a pretty fair
specimen. To be brief, we deduce the
following from this affair:
First, That the consequential officials of
the borough of West Haven are itching for
some opportunity whereby they can gain
little cheap notoriety.
Second, That the public treasury of
West Haven is running emptyings" and
needs replenishing.
Third, That the days of the "blue laws"
are not yet passed 30 far, at least, as the
borough of West Haven is concerned.
Fourth, That the inhabitants of West
Haven are exclusive in their tastes, and
do not wish to be intended upon by the
ssoutside barbarians"-i fact, that West
Haven is sort of Chinese empire on a
very small scale.
All of which deductions are respectfully
submitted aud ordered on file-"Fiat justi-
tia ruat coelum." p.
P. S.-We think it would be more for
the spiritual welfare, as well as temporal
credit of the West Haven magistrate, if
they should attend the sanctuary on the
Sabbath, instead of lying around in tie
scrub brush of Savin Rock, hunting for
inofensive and unsuspecting young men
on bicycles. It reminds us too much of
the guerrilla mode of warfare, or of the
tactics Of the mobile o red men,"

St. Luke,s Church Choir.

At St. Luke's P. E. church on Park

the singing of the choir. Sometime ago
some young men of the parish got together
a boy choir which has been carefully train
ed by Choir Master J. G. Anthony in the
music adapted to to the service of the
Episcopal church. The result has been
most favorable. The Rev. Mr.. Morris
spoke in an interesting manner Sunday.
His theme being reverence to God"
During the offertory Mr.. Charles L. Moore
sang a bass solo, 90 For Closer Walk
