Court Notes.


 James A. Wood ss trustee of the in solvent estate of Frank R. Russell has re leased the attachment and abandoned ths suit which he recently brought against An. nis J.Lord and others. The suit was to rs. cover possession of some property which the trustee believed should belong to the estate and which appeared in the name ot Lord and others. Trustee Wood finds that there is little to base his claim upon and so abandoned the proceedings.
 A hearing upon the appointment of a trustee on the estate of James McLsy, jr., the assigning carriage dealer was to have been held in the probate court yesterday morning, but was continued for week in order that settlement might be affected If possible.
 Kleigerman Bros, dealers in novelties at 674 Grand avenue, made voluntary aa- alignment in the probate court yesterday. The concern Is & co-partnsrship, consist ing of Morris and Joseph Kleigerman. A brother, David Kleigerman, who held two notes aggregating $400 against the firm, attached the store and that forced them $l, 300 and the assets in the neighborhood of $500.
 By assignment the hearing upon the ap- pointment of a trustee to manage the Philip Msrett fund for imbsciles will come up in the probate court this morning The hearing will be postponed until alater date, however, as some of the lawyers in terested are out of town.
 The application made by William Mur ray for license to sell liquor at Stony Gre k was thrown out by the county com miesioners yesterday because 1t was defec- tive. The location of the proposed saloon is within 180 feet of new $7,500 school house at the Creek and the applicant failed to 30 specify as required by law.

sANDBAGGERS AT WORK.

Two Rufiians Enter a State Street
 Store and Strike the Young Clerk
 over the Head With Sandbags-
 Robbery Was Evidently the Motive
 The Clerk Not IDjured-The Ruff
 f1ans Escape.
 A bold attempt at daylight robbery was made yesterday afternoon at o'clock, un- doubtedly by amateurs, who nevertheless were as determined and fearless as any ex. perienced hands. The place at which the attempt was made was the store of Edmund Zernitz, 916 State street.
 Shortly before o'clock Eddie, the 12 year old son of MT. Zsrnitz, who was alone in the store. was busy cleaning and dust ing the cases. Two men, whom he de- scribes as fairly we'll dressed, one in light and the other in dark clothes, the older about thirty-6ve years of age, tall and slim, the younger about twenty-two, short and stout, entered the store and asked if watches were repaired there, to which the boy re- piled that the mending of watches was g part of the business. The men did not produce any watches, but asked many questions of similar nature. Finally they asked to be shown the machinery of 8 large clock which stands in the rear of the store. The boy turned to the clock and was in the act of opening 1t when the men struck him in the head with sand bags.
 The blows were given by clumsy hands and had hardly any effect upon the boy except to make him yell. The would be | robbers became scared at the boys yell and started out the door. After making
 their exit they turned into lot just soutt of the store and jumped the fences, finally
 coming out on Bishop street. They were
 seen running along Bishop staeet, but nt
 one followed them.
 In his hurry to get out of the store on' of the men dropped his sandbag and {
 handkerchief. The bag was handed ove
 to Officer Clyne, who, with Officers Poront' l and Flannery, was detailed on the case. The instrument Is of home manufact
 ure, being made of simple gingham file, I with sand, such as is used on ooncret | walks.
 | Nothing was taken in the attempt, an,
 no damage was done except the soar 1 given the boy.
 Officers Toronto and Flannery are invee l tigating, but as yet have obtained no clu 1 as to the identity of the men.

 The Big Store sales for July were simply phenomenal and why? Certainly not be- cause people were hood winked into buying. Even the suggestion smacks of an insult to New Haven intelli- gence, and fortunately such methods are out of our line of business.
 Not because they were over-persuaded, for decisions rest with the buyer not with the seller, and such decisions are based upon the unerring judgment of the majority.
 The fact is, people must buy, rain or shine, summer or winter, silver up or silver | down. The Gown gets to a point where fixing means a new one.
 Fashion says 20 to certain stylel and demands some thing different. The edict is obeyed. Heavy garments must be replaced with light ones. The necktie that did good service must give way to brighter, newer, cleaner colors, etc, etc.
 But then for all that, water finds its level. So people find their level in the trade realm. They will rise nc higher than level judgment and level prices. Level headed people are quick tc judge of level prices.
 Thus the secret of July: phenomenal sales is out Prices are keyed to the spiri of the times and so are in ful accord with financial changes
 Besides this, people yer, naturally and properly trad' where a dollar will go farth est and treatment is right.
 To this end 'twould be wei to mediate upon our last ad }. vertisement, which if lost t reading can be found to rea' ization in the Big Store.
