AN OLD MOSSBACK.

A Missouri Turtle That Is Four Feet In
 Width.
 GeThere is a deepalole of water in Cur rent river, in which a large turtle meas hring about four feet across the back
 has been seen at,differentut times for the last fifty years, Various plans have been devised and put into execution to capture the tortoise, but up to the pres ent time of no avail, as he seems to be proof against armies, spikes, spears, gigs, gunpowder and dynamite. A few days since hunter residing in that neighborhood, while passing along near the river bank, espied his turtle ship basking in the sunshine at the foot of large oak. Quickly bringing his Winchester to his shoulder Ca 4s- caliber), he fired, the ball striking the monster fairly between the reyes. But judge of his chagrin and surprise when the turtle, instead of tumbling over dead, quietly letgo his hold and swan away as placidly and unconcerned as if he had been thumped by 8 gravel. Upon examination the hunter found that the ball, after striking the turtle, had glanced upward and imbedded it. self in the body of the oak to a depth of six inches. It is supposed that the monster shellfish made his way up from the Mississippi river in the great S-eshet Sn the spring of 1941.

 "Hands Across the Sea" will be pre- sented at the opera house this evening. The play is strong and dramatic and IS embellished with all it's wealth of scenery and calcium light effects used in its original production.

Waterbury Liquor Responsible For the
 Death of Morris Man.
 Russell Curtis and a companion, both from Morris, drove to Waterbury last Friday and returned, both intoxicated. When driving through the woods above Frederick Judd's, in Watertown, one of the two undoubtedly gave the horse a cut of the whip, causing it to squirt sud denly ahead and throwing them both out of the blackboard. Curtis struck on his head, breaking his neck.,i When found he lay with his face downward in the middle of the road. The body was deposited in barn close by until the medical examiner had viewed the re- mains. Two men watched with the corpse during the night. The next morning his brother came down and took charge of the remains. The other man, when questioned, could give no account whatever of the occurrence, as he was too drunk to realize what had happened.

DEATH ON THE NEW ENGLAND ROAD
Man Killed at New Britain and
 Another at Burnside.

Man Killed at New Britain and
 Another at Burnside.
 Thomas Palmer, cigarmaker, resi- dent at BranfOrd, Ont, was killed on the New England road at the Main street crossing in New Britain, yester- day evening about 4:30 o'clock, by local freight No 40. The man was apparently about 9 years old, poorly dressed and looked somewhat dissipated. He had been in New Britain for two days look ing for work, and was attempting to get on board the local freight as it passed Main street, when his foot slipped and he fell under the wheels of the cars. His legs were cut off and his body was badly mutilated. He lived but a few minutes after being taken from the track.
 About 8 o'clock yesterday evening James Cragan and John Otis of East Hartford found the body of man lying on the New England road tracks about half way between Burnside and Long Hill crossing. The body was lying face down, with the head against the south rail of the west bound track. Medical Examiner Mcknight was at once sum- moned. He found that the mans fore head was crushed Tn and that death must have been instantaneous. It looked as though he had been struck by an east bound train and SO thrown against the west bound track. In the mans pockets were note book, a bill and a French newspaper. The note book and bill both bore the name, Dennis Myott. It is thought that he belongs in Manchester. The victim was about 40 years of age.
 William Mitchell, aged 23, a brake man on the New York & New England railroad, was run over at Plainfield last night. His left leg will probably have to be amputated below the hip. If this is done ewill probably die.

ANOTHER SUIT AGAINST HoEY.
Eandford Asks that the Mortgages on the
 Hollywood Cottages be Set Aside.


 Hollywood Cottages be Set Aside.
 TRENTON, N. J., Nov. 12.-Another suit was begun yesterday by Henry Sanford, president of the Adams Elk press Company, against John Hoey. In this case his wife, Josephine, and his son, Frederick Hoey, are also named as defendants. It is on a rule to show cause why an injunction should not be granted by the United States Circuit Court against Hoey, preventing him from collecting the dividends on the 10, 900 shares of Southern Express Com pany stock that he holds, and from dis posing of them and other securities he now holds.
 The rule asks that the court decree that this stock has been the property of the Adams Express Company since Oct. 6, 1887, when it came into the possession of John Hoey, and that the settlement between the defendant and the com- pany in December, 1888, be set aside. It also asks that all the mortgages on the Hollywood cottages, which were exc cuted since the beginning of the suit here, be set aside, as we'll as other mort gages and assignments, and that they be revived and continued as liens against Hoey.
 It further asks that Josephine Hoey be debarred from all dover rights in these mortgaged premises in which she made joint execution, and that the leases now held by Fred. 0. Hoey be declared void, because they were made to defraud the company, and that Hoey be made to return to Adams Express Company bor- rowed money and securities. The court Is also asked that Mrs. Josephine Hoey he enjoined from transferring any p operty.
 Judge Green has issued an order that Hoey transfer D property, nor shall his wife.

KILDUFF WAS LEGALLY ELECTED.

Judge Fenn's Decision in Regard to the
 Citizens and Taxpayers Ticket.
 Judge Fenn has decided that Edward C.. Kilduff was legally elected city clerk of Waterbury for 1899, at the recent election. He says that the 153 votes cast for Edwin F. Platt cannot be counted for Edward B. Platt, as no evi- dence was brought before the court showing that any of those voting for Edwin F. Platt, with the exception of Miles F. Connolly and James J. Egan, believed they were voting for the re- publican nominee for city clerk. That action in voting the ticket in which the nominee for city clerk was Edwin F. Platt" is prima facie evidence that their votes were intended for Edwin F. Platt unless evidence to the contrary was produced. Judge Fenn also says that the ticket of the Citizens and Taxpayers association was legal
