Gleanings from Many Sections of Our
 Little Commonwealth.
 Mrs. Lucy M Snow of Clinton, a much esteemed resident, died Monday afternoon, aged seventy three years and six months. She was the widow of the late Arthur Snow and leaves three daughters and one son. The oldest, Jeannette F., is the wife of Manford A. Wilcox. H. Artemesia married s. R. Champion. Ella M. is the wife of Joseph D. Kelsey. All of them are now living in Madison. The son, AL bert A. Snow, married Kate A. Coe of Madi- son and now resides at the old homestead in Clinton. It would be hard to find a woman who had accomplished more by her own exeptions than Mrs. Snow.
 WnL1MANT1c, Conn.,, Feb. 23.-The Bal
 tic Water power, after being idle five
 years, over which there has been so much
 wrangling between the courts of Connecti- cut and Rhode Island as to the clear title,
 has been sold to the Ponemaugh company,
 of Taftville, town of Sprague. The prop
 erty consists of 4, ,000-horse power engine,
 200 double cottages, large grist mill, a
 store and two boarding houses, one capable
 of accommodating 400 people and the other
 100. The mill was 946 feet long and sev-
 eral stories high, and was built of solid
 granite in 1859 by Amasa and William
 Sprague. The town of Sprague yesterday voted unanimously to abate taxes on the
 property for ten years. It was formerly
 taxed at $1 ,500, ,000.
 E. W. COLEMAN. Edwards w. Coleman, at one time res-
 ident of Hartford and for many years a well-known grain merchant of New York city, died recently, about seventy-nine years of age. He left Hartford about thirty five years ago.
 IT WAS A GOOD DAY FOR OLD CONNECTICUT. Yesterdays Hartford Courant remarks:
 'sIt is a pity yesterdays meeting at the capitol could not have been transferred bodily to the Chicago exposition, just to show what Connecticut people are and how they do things.
 Everybody was interested to help Con- necticut. There was no question of repub- lican or democrat; all were citizens. It was shown that $50, ,000 was needed and in a few minutes nearly $53, ,O00 was pledged. That's the way our people do things when they pull together, and the people, the real people, the real Connecticut, can always be relied upon to pull together when the need is real. It was good day for Con- necticut."
 WENT THROUGH THE ICE. James Burke, the six-year old son of Ed
 ward Burke, who is helper in the foun- dry at Pratt & Whitney's, Hartford, was drowned in the Park river Monday. LAWYER GATLING. Richard Henry Gatling, eldest son of Dr.
 Richard J. Gatling (of Gatling gun fame) l who for the past two years has been pursu- ing the study of law in the office of Colonel | Robert G. Ingersoll, has been admitted to practice at the bar of the state of New York.
 WEATHER PROPHECY. Weather Prophet Horace Johnson's lat est prophecy is that between February 27 | and March 2 violent rain and wind storm | will occur hereabouts, one which will be 1 very heavy along the coast. Very likely.

CONNECTICUT,S RECORD.

The Ancient order of United Work
 men Shows Unprecedented Growth
 -Fifty-efsht Thousand Dollars Dis-
 bursed in This State-COmmenda-
 tfOns for the Two Lodges Lately
 Organized in This City.
 The Ancient Order of United Workmen celebrated the anniversary of it's fourteenth natal day at Boston yesterday. The lodges of this city were represented by the follow ing delegates: Momauguin, Charles H.Reed and Miles Curtis, jr.; Israel Putnam, F. W. Blanchard and George A. Butler; Pyramid, John c. Gallagher and Loren H. Stannard; East Rock, George K. Clark and c. H. Mann; Sterling, D. H. filling and L. B. Clark; Phoenix, John R. Hutchinson, and
 West Rock, Amos Dickerman and E. z. Dow. MT. Gallagher had been confined to
 his house by illness, but recovered sufG-
 ciently to leave with his brother delegates
 for the Hub.
 The past year shows marked increase
 in the number of members, gain of 50 per cent. over the large additions made in 1890, and the returns for so much of this year are more encouraging still. There are now .272 lodges and 26, ,996 members. Of these Connecticut has 5, 5,456 members, gain of ,499.
 The number of assessments levied in 1891 was eleven. The receipts from these amounted to $291 1880. This enabled us to cancel our obligations to the bene6ciaries of 125 deceased brethren and to pay the relief call of 1891, amounting to $35, ,496. The balance remaining on hand for Janu- ary 1, 1891, is $5,940. Of the $2S5, ,496 disbursed from the beneficiary fund, Con- necticut received $50, ,0OO.
 Roswell B. Farren of this city, the su- pervisor for Connecticut, submitted an in teresting report of the progress of the or der in this state. After speaking of the increase in membership during the year, he said:
 What a noble work has the order done in thus throwing the mantle of charity, hope and protection about these 1,5OO homes scattered thorughout Connecticut. Would that time and ability were mine that I might mention every lodge and | nearly every brother, for all are entitled to special praise, for not one drone have we in our fifty lodges in the little Nutmeg state.
 Of the old lodges, Silver City, No. 3, is still the foremost, having added 15S to it's l number. Israel Putnam, No. 31, has dem | onstrated herself worthy rival, and unites with the former in doing honor both in Connecticut and the A. o. t. w. Of the recently organized lodges Pyramid, ] No. 45, and Stirling, No. 46, are our boast,
 and well they may be, for their record has
 never been surpassed and doubt if ever l equalled in this or any other jurisdiction. | Pyramid, No. 45, at its first anniversary,
 numbered a membership of 209, and had
 built and furnished for itself an imposing
 building and an elegant lodge room.

day and until 3 o'clock in the morning,
when a hurricane of sleet and snow came
down, the mercury dropping from A to IS. At
this hour it is 10 above, with indications that it
will get down to zero before morning. The
ground is frozen as hard as a stone and covered
with sleet. Business is at n standstill. No haul
ing of any kind is being done.
Dispatches from Cierco and from northw west
Texas say that a blizzard Of unprecedented
severity is extending over those vast plains,
and it is apprehended cattle will be frozen by
the thousand.

Louisiana all the smaller streams and lakes
have been frozen, and steamboats, all along the
Mississippi in the states named have great
difficulty in handling freight because
OF sleet and ice. Country roads are
almost impossible. A heavy fruit crop
is predicted in consequence of retarded
development of buds, and agriculturis,s gene
rally regard the long freeze as favorable to
future crops.

such sensation that the check could not be
negotiated. He was released the following
night and for months the police were working
up the case. which eliminated in the arrest Of

lasting o month VIM. Considine was tried
first and on his case all the rest depended and
the Jury went out yesterday afternoon.
The Jury agreed last night and brought in a
verdict Of not guilty, which practically settles
the whole affair and may have something to do
with o wholesale cleaning out in the police

NASHVILLE, TENN, Jan. 19.-Early this morn
ing nearly 1900 miners gathered on the hill
sides about the Coal creek stockade and kept
up constant firing Of small arms and held a
semi-civilized ghost dance about the two
small block houses which contain 200 state
troops. The miners came SO close
to the military pickets that an ex-
change OF ehots was INDUCED in. None Of the
soEiers were hit, and it is thought that the
miners escaped without injury. About two
weeks ago a soldier accidentally shot and killed
convict. and since then the miners have be-
come more arrogant and aggressive.
Further trouble Is expected. They swear
that when they get ready they will extermi-
nate the civil guard, state troops and the con-
victs, and forever end convict labor in the
mountains of East Tennessee. The officer
in charge has asked for achievements and
one company Of infantry has been
sent out from Knoxville The miners
say that no more soldiers nor convicts shall
enter the valley. A fight is expected at any
minute. The soldiers are well fortified, vet the
miners can outnumber them one hundred to
one. The Kentucky miners and those about
Jellico are ready to join their Tennessee friends
at moments notice.
