Butcher Arrives,


 l. "On Saturday morning last Mrs. Seymour Manning and her husbanG were upon the scene. The lady was once Miss Amelia Masten. She had been wired to come from Oakland where she resides, to help her papa out of his dilemma. The younger children naturally looked to her and her hus' band to assist them, as their other and older sisters are all away at the presen, time.
 "The Mannings were equal to the emergency. Immediately upon reach ing the hotel Mrs. Manning learned the whole story. She lost no time, but sought Miss Pascault, who was then re- lating her troubles 10 8 Mir. Schwerin, guest of the hotel, and railroad man as well.
 My father wants 10 see you,' she exclaimed in dictatorial way. Come out now on the porch.'
 |" T do not care to see your father just at present. Miss Pascault answer ed. .'Besides fl he wants to see me he had better come here.'
 "There was nothing more said then, but daggers were exchanged with eyes.
 There is nothing positively anthem tic about the scene which took place that Saturday night, but the people about the hotel tell the most sensa- tional stories. Clerk Msrston was in. trusted with letter to Mise Pascault summoning her into the presence oi Papa Masten and his irate daughters, but Miss Pascault failed to answer the message. Whereupon it IS rumored that Seymour Manning and his wife presented themselves at the cottage and gained admission, general row being the result. Incidentally they told Miss Pascault exactly what they thought of her character.

Later the delighted children turned to scolds on the folio wing provocation 1;
 "One week ago Sunday Miss Pas. cault and Mir. Masten left the hotel quite early. It was prearranged that they would attend early mass in the village church. Although man who thinks twice before rising before s o'clock in the morning, Mir. Masten was on the porch at o'clock, a boutonniere in his lapel and bunch of red roses in his hand, waiting to present the cor sage adornment to the lady. They oc- cupied front pew all to themselves, and invigorated by the service they sallied forth in the buggy with the red wheels. The steward at the hotel had carefully prepared basket of dainties for them to break their fast or to quell a rosaic appetite later on should they feel so disposed.
 Where the couple drove to or where they fingered is still unknown, but it is certain they did not return to the hotel unti! o'clock that afternoon.
 The storm that had been brewing for week broke out. The young Masten ladies were simply wild. Their papa seemed to be completely estranged from them. It was too much for their little aristocratic hearts. From that time on they pOuted with papa, and in the presence of Miss Pascault their pert little noses assumed elevations well known in astronomy.
 The lady is of the impression that Mir. Masten popped the question, and he does not deny that he did. But, his children are up in arms.
 Friday afternoon was a very busy one about the Hotel Mateo. Miss Pascault remained in her room in the little cot tage engaged for herself and her two protegees. She was fretful. because her betrothal did not seem to be met with that spirit of satisfaction it had first brought to her.
 That night there was heap of trouble in the little Pascault cottage. Miss Pascault received an anonymous

1t Sounded So Pretty.

Some years ago a Rochester clers man, in baptizinga a baby, paused in u middle of the service to inquire tL name of the infant, to which the mot CT, with a profound courtesy, replied; shady, sir, if you please"
 "Shady?" replied the minister. "The it's a boy and you mean Shadrach, eh: "No, please your reverence, it's girl"
 And pray" asked the inquisit' pastor, "how happened you to call tn child by such a name?"
 "Well, sir" replied the woman you must know, our name is Bower an my husband said as how he should hs her to be called Shady, because sPa Bower sounds so pretty."-Quips ,

"rhe next morning, Sunday. Papa Masten was quietly spirited away from the hotel and taken to his home, where his daughters hope he will get over his infatuation for the beautiful blonde goyerness.
 "The strain was to great on Miss Pascault. The poor woman's heart had been SO wrapped up in the bland ishments of her white-hsired admirer that she yearned for his presence. The cruel letter she had received and the terrible accusations made against her character by her lover's children, as we'll as the finger that everybody seemed to point at her. ws& more than she could bear."

Men in sOJO A. D.

A French statistician, who ha S be studying the military and other ? ords, has found that in lG1O the av, age height of man in Europe was f feet nine inches; that in l79O it " five feet six inches: in 1920 it was f feet five inches and a fraction. At | present time it is five feet three al three-fourths. inches. It is easy to duce from these figures a rate of reg lar and gradual decline in hum. stature. The calculation shows tht by the year 4000 A. D. the stature the average man will be reduced fifteen inches.

True Love Rocky as Usual.

"On Tuesday afternoon it was deemed advisable to remove her from the Hotel Mateo, and few sympathizing friends accompanied her on the l :33 p. m. train for this city and thence to the Catholic orphan asylum in San Rafael , where she will be cared for until she has recovered her mental balance.
 ''In the maantime poor ovesick Papa Masten will be safely guarded by his daughters, Irene, Jennie, Georgie and Amelia. His other daughters, Miss Mamie, who is travelling east with the wife of H. E, Huntington, and Mrs. Kendall, who is away, are not aware of the trouble in which he is ln- volved. Eddie Masten, the eldest son, is in Portland, Ore, and Joseph Mas. ten, another son, has remained at the Hotel Msteo with his wife, who was a Miss Martel, and his younger brother Louis.'

letter which broke her heart. It was couched in such terms and said to many mean things about her and her love tor Papa Masten, that she became hysteric. al after reading them.

SHARP TACTICS,

Democrats of the Senate Confirm the
Nomination of John S. Seymour.
HARTFORD, Mar 3.-The republicans
deserted the senate to-day in order to
defeat the nomination of John S. Sey-
mour for insurance commissioner. In
the face of all joint rules to the con-
trary and without quorum the demo
cratic members confirmed the nomina-
ton, the only republican in the chamber
being Senator Phelps. The republicans
will at once take legal action to prevent
Mr. Seymour from acting.
A petition introduced ask ng for per-
mission to sell the property of the First
Congregational society of Waterbury; a
resolution Incorporating the Mad River
Electric Light company of Waterbury
and resolution appropriating $25, 900
for the Waterbury hospital.
The time for the introduction of new
business into the senate was extended to
March 10. An adjournment was taken
until ! o'clock to morrow afternoon.
The democrats of the house again
euchred the republicans to-day. When
an attempt was made to reconsider the
vote of yesterday, indefinitely post
poning the contested election cases,
some of the democrats slipped out leav-
the house without a quorum, and an
adjournment was taken until next
Tuesday. This was the last day on
which the contested election cases could
be considered.

ROOT WILL NOT TALK.
Declines to Be Interviewed in Regard
That "Bite."

Declines to Be Interviewed in Regard to
That "Bite."
A reporter called upon Senator Root
yesterday after adjournment and in
quired for fuller particulars regarding
the alleged "bite," which had been
offered to Mr. Root, presumably by Con-
solidated road lobbyists, and which
Senator Holcomb had said in the senate
could only be construed to mean that
the senator from Waterbury had been
offered bride.
Mr. Root said to the reporter that he
had nothing to add to what he stated in
the senate. The reporter urged that as
the senator had made the statement in
public on the floor of the senate, the
general public would like to know the
details of the circumstance; when the
"bite" was offered and by whom. Mr.
Root, however, declined TO give any in
formation.
The Hon Lynde Harrison, who had
been seen in conversation with Senator
Root before the opening of the senate
yesterday, was called upon by the re-
porter to learn If in his conversation
with Mr. Root the latter had told him
anything about the "bite." Mr. Harri-
son had nothing to say on the subject,
but politely referred the reporter to Mr.
Root.

While Peter Bowe, a young boy en-
ployed as delivery clerk at w. A. Gull
foile's market, was delivering orders
this morning on Burton street, his horse
started and ran down North Elm street
across into South Elm and at
the junction of Clay and this
latter street the sleigh turned
over throwing the boy against an iron
hitching post. E. Smiths team was
passing at the time and took up the boy,
who had been rendered unconscious by
the fall, and carried him to his home on
Quarry street. His head was found
to be bruised, deep cash was cut
in the side of the nose and the left leg
had bad cut just above the knee. The
young lad remained unconscious several
hours. The horse freed himself from
the sleigh when it was overturned and
ran down South Main street to Benedict
& Burnham's mill, when he was stopped.
The animal was severly cut about the
hind feet and was placed under the care
of DR. Bland.

AcclrENr AND INCIDENT.
A Norwich Child Has an Almost Miracu
lous Escape From Death.


lous Escape From Death.
One of the most miraculous escapes
from instant death was witnessed at
Norwich yesterday. The seven-year-old
child of Michael Breska was playing by
the tracks of the Norwich and Wor-
cester road, when an express came
laundering along. The child, uncon-
scious of it's dan ger, continued to play.
The mother was paralyzed with fright
and could do nothing. The child was
struck by the train and thrown to one
side. When picked up, crying, it was
found that all the injuries sustained, as
far as the doctors could determine, is a
cut on the head and a few bruises on
the body. Those who saw the accident
can hardly believe that the child is still
alive.
Nestor Jacobson, Swede about "a
years of age, while carrying ladle full
of molten iron at the Malleable Iron
Fitting company's works at Branford
Yesterday afternoon stumbled and fell
over the ladle. The ladle struck the
ground and splashed the red hot metal
all over the unfortunate man. The
metal burned through his clothing to
his skin, and in several places sank into
the flesh, making terrible wounds. He
was removed to his home where he was
attended by DIR Tenny. 1t was found
that he had been badly burned on the
right side, shoulder, arm and leg, but
the doctor believes that he will recover.
