POSSIBLY, BY AND BY.
Judge Tyler Considers the Quest on of
Injunction South Union street a
Constitutionsl One.

Judge Tyler Considers the Quest on of an
Injunction on South Union street a
Constitutional One.
A bill in equity in behalf of several resi-
dents of Union street against the Street
Railroad company asking for an injunction
was presented yesterday to Judge Tyler,
who is holding court at Mddlebury
The bill is based upon the theory that the
occupation OF this street is not necessary,
being one of several avenues to Howard
Park; that Union street is not adapted to
such occupation on account OF its extreme
narrowness; that it would be practically
for teams and necessary traffic In con juno
ton with the electric cars especially in the
winter season, when the snow from the
track will lie on the narrow space each side
OF it, there being no provision for its re-
moval; that the complanants have n o other
means OF access to their premises, and that
the occupation by the company would prac-
ticaly exclude the use and enjoyment of
the street es a common highway.
Judge Tyler stated that he thought 1t de-
plorable that such an occupation OF etreet
like this one should be attempted, but
that however much injury 1t might cause,
the Legislature having granted a charter
to do this very thing, he did not think an
injunction could properly be granted until
the courts had passed u Don the question,
"a serious constitutional one-of the power
OF the Legislature to grant by charter the
right to so occupy such a street.
Evidently the end is not yet.

tried a food at first that baby did not seem
to like, as he always left half in his bottle.
Finally he was taken very sick and the doc

we did at once, and from that time until
this he has cried for 1t every two hours, and
although we always give him one and one
half cupful', he has never left any in his
bottle. He is now one year old, and has
grown to be such fat, healthy boy"
