These shoes caused her to have in
growing toe nails, which resulted in
a disease of the hone that medical
skill could not cure. II became so
bad that che was 10 longer able to
walk. This week the physicians de.
cided that nothing could save the
young woman's life but amputation

At present 1t looks as though there Ia to
be third company of Horse Guard in
this state or that the New Haven company
will have q branch In the shape of q

ny, whichever it will be, is to be located
In Bridgeport, and the interest In the

a committee of Eve, consisting of DR.. Bar

committee called at the srmory yesterday

company. The committee stated its object
and laid it's plans before the company. All
the members of the company seemed to
think favorably of the project, and a COM
mittee was appointed from the company to
act in conjunction with the Bridgeport
people.
If a new company is formed it will be
under the necessity of procuring a charter.
If the company is to be made branch of
the local company it will be known as q
squadron and its forming will necessitate
the changing of the present charter of the
local company or the making of a new one
The latter plan 1t Is thought will be
adopted.

MUST DISGORGE.

Valuable Lands in California Revert
TO the Public Standardization of
the Supreme Court.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-The United
States supreme court, by a majority decis-
ion to-day, reversed the Judgment of the
circuit court of the United States for the
southern district of CsIifornis, and de-
cided against the Southern Pacific Railway
company in four suits brought against it
by the United States to quit title to valu-
able lands lying between the Colorado river
and the Pacific ocean. The lands In South
ern California are now much sought after,
are said to be worth several million dollars
and were claimed by the Southern Pacific
by virtue of the land grant made to 1t by
congress. The cases have been before the
court for some time. They were argued
at the last term but the court was SO nearly
equally divided on the merits of the ques-
tons involved thssit ordered the case re-
argued and set the hearing down for
special date.
The decision of the court, rendered by
Justice Brewer, is squarely against the
company on both points before the court.
and deprives 1t of title In the lands. The
two questions before thee were whether
or not the Southern Pacific Railway com
pany was entitled TO lands within the grant
ed limits or to lands within the indemnity
limits of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad
company, the maps of definite location OF
the two roads conflicting. The court ruled
that the grants to these lands attached to
the Atlantic and Pacific Railway company,
aud that this road never having been con-
structed west of the Colorado river, the
lands became part of the public domains
open to settlers.

The Vote on Three of the Charges
Against Professor Smith.
CINCINNATI, Dec. 12.-The presbytery in
secret session here to-day voted on the
second and third charges and specifications
against Professor Smith. On the third
charge the vote was 80 to 90 against him.
The vote on the first charge was also given
out. 1t stood 81 to 81 in favor of the &C
cused. A COMMITTEES was appointed to fix
the penalty and report to the presbytery
tomorrow morning.
The second charge was that Professor
Smith taught that the holy spirit did not
SO control the inspired writers in their
composition of the scriptures as to make
their utterances absolutely truthful. The
third charge accused him of teaching an
inspiration of the scriptures in a sense
different from that taught by the script
ures themselves and by the confession of
faith

SPOKE AT CALVARY BAPTIST.

Mr.. IT. Il. Murphy Speaks at the Call
vary Baptist Church-Reforms of
the Past-Two Hundred Sign the
Pledge.
The Calvary Baptist church was packed
with throDgs of people to the doors last
evening to hear the temperance orator, 7.
E. Murphy. He made glowing and elo-
quent address, giving the history of re-
forms in general and abiding to many
past reforms and great temperance move
ments. Among those which he mentioned
was the reform in Switzerland by which
this little country threw off the yoke of
Austria under the leadership of William
Tell and the freedom which the American
colonies obtained under Washington. He
also spoke of the freeing of the slave In
Great Britain's dominions under the lead
ership of Wilburforce, and then went back
to the old Greek reformers, Scion and
Pisistratus. The war over American
slavery was great struggle for liberty.
He then went on to show that all reforms
are begun by the minority, who know that
they are right. Thus reform starts among
the minority and gradually develops until
It becomes the sll.sbsorbent and promi-
nent necessity.
The people who criticiss the temperance
movement and pronounce il failure might
as we'll say that Christianity is q failure,
| as it spreads over but portion of the
world to-day. Mr.. Murphy concluded with
an earnest appeal to men to accept the
gospel and lead temperate, virtuous lives
and sign the pledge.
After he had finished speaking about 200
people came forward and signed the pledge,
among whom were many of the prominent
citizens of the city. Testimony Was re-
| ceived from several of those who have been
| interested in the movement.
This meeting was significant, as IL was
the frat one held in any of the city
churches. Mr.. Murphy will continue to
speak to the workingmen at the factories,
but the evening meeting will be held Of
the Calvary Baptist church, and he will
battle with the evil in high places.

DIED OF EXPOSURE.

Destitute Woman Found Frozen
Near East Hartford-A Man Charged
With Assault.
HARTFORD, Dec. 12.-Florence Smith, a
destitute woman, aged twenty eight, was
found dead in East Hartford meadows at
$3.50 this afternoon. The body was frozen
stiff and from the first examination 1t
seems that death must have resulted from
exposure. The clothing was removed from
portions of the body, but there was no
sign of violence. The woman was last
seen going across the East Hart
ford bridge from Hartford about 8
O'Clock. With her was a man with whom
she was laughing and carrying on. II was
thought that she was under the influence
of liluor at the time. The two evidently
went together into the open fields back of
the meadow schoolhouse. The mans de-
scription answered that of John Loveland, ,
an East Hartford character, who was ar
rested tonight, charged with assault. The
Smith woman had recently completed q
Jail sentence. She hes been married, but
her husband Is dead. Two young children
are living, girl who is in Scotland and q
six year old boy in Ludlow, Mass.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-Commissioner
O'Brien of the navigation bureau in spec
ial report regarding the shipping interests
advocates the organization Of a national
naval reserve, local in character, with q
fixed term of enlistment and recruited from
rine engineers and citizen seamen from
along the Atlantic, gulf and Pacific coasts
and the great lakes, the entire organization
to be under the jurisdiction of the
secretary of the navy. In the commission
er's opinion it should consist of four
divisions, one for the lakes and one for
each of the other coasts. The commission
er believes the example set by England in
her policy of granting subventions to ocean
steamers of a large class engaged in the
merchant marine service, provided they
are so constructed as to be readily availa.
BILE as transports or armed cruisers in time
of war, is worthy of our imitation. He
says that the enormous expense of
maintaining cruisers like the Balti-
more, said to be 100000 a year,
seems to dictate naval policy for defence,
consisting of heavily a1mored and armed
battleships for harbor and coast defence,
in connection with all the engineering
devices for defensive operations. The re-
port states that the Importance of rebuild
ing the American merchant marine ap-
peals to the patriotism and interests of
every American citizen. 1t is estimated
that about 5000, 000, 900 year is now being
paid by American citizens to the owners of
steam and sailing vessels under foreign
flags, and chiefly under the British flag.
