The same testimony was introduced as in Condon's case. Meara made no defense this morning, and he An appeal was taken.
 Wilfred Beaudouin was charged with the theft of a gold watch from the person of George E. Walker. One year ago last March Beaudouin and Walker were drinking together in Quinn's saloon, near Railroad Hill, and both got quite tipsy.

He returned few days ago and Detective Egan and Officer Kennaugh yesterday arrested him. This morning he gave his age as twenty years and said he was guilty. The story he told to Detective Egan was that he was drunk when he took the watch. He started down toward the railroad tracks and remained hidden until 4 o'clock in the morning. He walked to Thomaston and there caught freight train for Springfield, walked from there to Chicopee, where he sold the watch for $10. Walker said the watch was valued at $55. As the crime was states prison offense, and as neither Judge Root nor Attorney O'Neill wished to railroad the boy to states prison the complaint was changed, and he was fined $1 and costs and sixty days in jail.

 NAUGATUCK, April Ave doubt i a lecturer ever labored under more dis advantages than did the Rev Mir Baum last evening at the Parish house. In the first place his audience consisted of about twenty Episcopalians, four Con- gregrationalists, two Baptists and three boys. Then hIs operator with the stereopticon was green hand and appar- ently near sighted, causing the lecturer every few minutes to break in upon his subject, consequently the lecture which should have closed before ten o'clock extended to nearly eleven. The pictures when rightly focused were good. The subject, was -s'The Bible" and how the Protestant church was esta ablIshed.
 D. P. Mills and family arrived home last night. Mrs Mills was as comfort able as could be expected. Both bones of the left arm were broken about two inches above the wrist.
 There will be a large attendance to hear the Rev A. P. Doyle at the lecture room of St Francis church next Sunday evening. Tickets are only 25 cents and large number have been disposed of.

Elorida's Shell Mounds.

A ships officer, who has spent much
time on the St. Johns river, Florida,
thinks that he has solved the prob
lem as to the origin of the shell
mounds that occur along that stream.
The river twists about in an extra
ordinary way, SO that in many places
the view along the water extends for
only a few rods, but he finds that a
tall object or the smoke of a fire
shown from the top of one of these
mounds could be seen from those
next below and above, and he be-
ieves these eminences were Indian
signal stations, by means of which
the natives were able to announce
the approach of hostile force along
the river, as the Greeks signaled the
news of the fall of Troy to their
home cities by lights on the noun
tain tops, that were repeated from
peak to peak.

The meanest adventure ever had

of weeks ago, said DR.. S. o. Young,

OF commercial pilgrims in the hotel
corridors ..My best girl lives a
couple of miles from town, and had

not, but l thought in any event

The animal came up to the tree,
stopped, and emitted another heart
breaking below that nearly caused me
to fall off my perch. Then it walked
around the tree few times, snuffed
about and lay down. It seemed to
think it had sure thing of it and it
could afford to wait. Istaid up there

Decay Of the Indians.

Decay Of the Indians.
Much melancholy literature, prose
and verse, has been INDUCED in about
the decay Of the Indians; how they are
fading away like the mist on the
mountain, the snow on the plain;
mere handful left of once mighty ma
tons, and this feeble remnant the
white man is driving into the Gulf Of
Mexico, the Pacific ocean or some other
deep water. This diminuton Of the In
dian census is a sad truth; but there
remains the consolation that, with the
disappearance Of the Indians, will dis
appear the worst lot Of scoundrels,
white and mixed, that ever cursed the
earth. 1t was noticed that at recent
payment of the government money to
Indians at Anadarko, the Indians came
many miles in the bitter weather and
suffered indescribably in their camps to
draw their money, and that whisky
peddlers and gamblers reaped nearly
every cent Of it in few hours. So it
was in the beginning, and so it will be
as long as the Indian lives ward" Of
the government When the last Indian
is laid in his grave it would be boon
if the last Indian rObber were hung
above the humble sepulcher.-Kansas
