STATE BOARD OF HEALTH.
Secretary Lindsley Says That More None
 Is Needed,

Secretary Lindsley Says That More Money
 Is Needed.
 The water question was discussed at the meeting of the state board of health in New Haven yesterday. In the opinion of the board the appropriation by the state of 5000 for the purpose of con- ducting investigations on the condition of drinking water in Connecticut, is too small for effective work to be done.
 In considering the recent legislation, affecting the to VII boards of health, the board thought that the abolishment of town boards of health without at once appointing a county officer to take the place of the board, was a poor plan. As the matter now stands the county officer who will be appointed to do this work will not be chosen until next July. Should cholera or some raging epidemic appear in any town in Connecticut it would place the municipal authorities in a quandary, owing to the fact that the selectmen have chWge of appointing health courts.
 A discussion on the medical practice act elicited the information that Dr. Lindsley had recently received a letter from a friend in New Nord, who wished to know whether the recent legislation would prohibit citizens there from prac- ticing in this state. During the summer large number of physicians come to Connecticut and it is customary for them to practice little during their va cations.
 The new law says that every physician must register with the town clerk and | must be a resident of the town in which he intends to practice. The question that is to be solved is whether a physi clan whose home is in New York, but who practices in Connecticut town | while spending his vacation, will not bt guilty of perjury by registering at the town clerks office. Dr. Lindsley say: that he will not reject any application | blanks that are sent to him under these IcDnditiOns

A CONSTABLE WANTED.

A Great Defect in the Justfces' Court
Administration.
The need Of q deputy constable has
been more apparent of late than ever.
At present Constable Richardson has
to attend to the subpoenaing of wit
nesses in both Justice Austin's court and
that OF Justice Seaman. He has also
to bring all prisoners from the county
Jail to the examining courts, only re-
ceiving 15 cents for each journey. 1t
frequently occurs that examinations take
place III both justices courts at the same
time the constable is expected to attend
to both cases. It 10 apparent that this
cannot be done, and constable Richard
son is obliged to pay deputy for this
purpose out OF his own pocket.
The board of supervisors is legally
able to appoint deputy constable to
assist in attending to the justice courts,
and it would undou btedly save consider
able trouble and delay, would they do
so.
- Roth Juatiaa Saaman- and Juaties Aus-
tin are greatly IN favor OF the appoint
ment, Justice Seaman said, deputy
constable should certaniIyibe appointed.
1t is impossible for one man toa attend
satisfactorily to bothh courtss and the
board of supervisors would be doing a
wise thing in allowing deputy to sssist
he present constable.
AS things are at present, the work of
both courts is'considerably is delayed, and
great deal of time is unnecessarily
lost

DEED OR MORTGAGE.
The Suit of Mrs. Fisher Against Mess
Stlmson and Braly.

The Suit of Mrs. Fisher Against Messrs.
stlmson and Braly.
The trial of the suit of Mrs. Mazda
Fisher vs. W. NJ. Stimson and J. H.
Braly was resumed before Judge Nc
Kinley and jury yesterday morning, and
during the day all the testimony was in
troduced and arguments partially made,
the case being continued until this
morning for the conclusion OF the argu-
mente.
This ia the case in which Mrs. Fisher
claims that the defendants loaned her
self and husband $400 for four months
for 500, and that they took advantage
of an absolute deed she and her hus-
band gave to certain property as security
Tor the loan that after she was unable
to repay the money at the expiration of
the time, they entered into possession of
the property, refused to allow it to be
redeemed and finally sold it for $4,000,
keeping all the proceeds.
Yesterday the defense gave their side
Of their story. Mr.. Braly's statement
about the transaction was to the effect
that the Fishers wanted loan, but he
knew his character, and would have
nothing to do with loan. He did
agree to straight out purchase OF the
property il deed could be drawn in
such q way that the Fishers might have
an option to repurchase, and II the doc
ument would preclude the possibility OF
the Fishers afterward claiming that it
was mortgage. The parties were sent
to A. M. Stephens and he informed
them and they knew perfectly we'll that
it was an absolute sale OF the land.
Mr.. Stephens testified to the same ef-
feet as Mr.. Braly, and related the con-
versstions he had with Mr.. Fisher about
the matter. explaining to him the effect
OF the deed and all about it.
There was other testimony of a COR
roborative character, and the defense
made clear presentation of the legal
strength of their position. The case
will reach the jury today.

Attorneys for the Defense Keep the Au-
dienoe Amused - The Murdered
Woman's Ante-M ortem State
ment- Other Testimony.

The examination of Quon Toy Ying.
for the murder Of his mistress, Goat
Hue, continues to exhaust the time and
patience OF Justice Seaman. The case,
however, appears to afford the attorneys
for the defense a fine opportunity for
amusing the crowded court room, and
in spite of an evident lack of apprecia-
tion on the part of the audience. the
two attorneys kept up running fire of
alleged wit.
Lem Luen testified that he was asked d
by officer Rohn to act as interpreter be-
tween the officer and the dying woman.
He and the officer were in the girls
room soon after the stabbng was done.
Acting under the officers orders he
asked the woman il che thought she
was going to die. She replied that she
thought she was, and that she was
afraid to die. He then questioned her
as to who had stabbed her, and she re-
piled "Quon All Moon"
The attorneys for the defence then
cross-examined the witness at some
length, but were unable to shake his
testimony on any one point. They then
attempted to show that the witness was
man Of bad character, but were
promptly pulled up by Deputy District
Attorney Davis who objected to the evil
dence as being entirely immaterial.
Justice Seaman agreed with the district
attorney, and the defense then interro-
gated the witness as to a conversation
held at some remote period with Chi
nese woman, this was also ruled out ss
being wholly immaterial.
Tom Bin, the part owner of the muir
dered woman, was then called and
stated that the deceased belonged to
him by right Of purchase. The wounded
man, Ah Lip, was supposed to look
after her. He first became aware
of her death by hearing two pistol
shots fired. He got up and was told
that his woman had been killed, and
that All Lip was dying. He went
straight to the woman's room and found
her dying, but conscious. He picked
up the murders knife from the floor.
The knife was produced in court and
identified by the witness as the one
found in the room. After some import
ant evidence, the examination WAS again
continued until this morning.

HE SAVED THE BABY.
Captain Rowsn's Exploit at Last Night
Fire.

Captain Rowsn's Exploit at Last Nights
Fire.
The explosion OF coal oil stove at
Mrs. Csrmonea's lodging house, on the
corner of New High and Ord streets,
brought out the fire department last
evening. The fire started in the upper
part of the building, which is used as
lodging house, the base ment being used
for saloon purposes.
An exciting incident of the fire was
the rescue of 9-months-old baby by
Captain William Rowan.
The child had been locked in the
room by it's mother and was peacefully
sleeping in cradle, unconscious of the
smoke and fame which threatened it's
destruction. By the time the engines
arrived the room was in flames and the
child's cries were plainly audible.
Captain Rowan dashed up the stairs,
kicked in the door, and snatched the
frightened child from it's cradle in the
nick OF time.
The damage done amounted to be-
tween $50 and $50, the room in which
the child was sleeping suffering the
most.

ton of the company and the in
terests of the different partners, together
with statement of what their profits
had been. Dip Ken's profits were 500
the first year, $50 the second, 500 the
third and fourth. He said he had
known the defendant seven years. He
had hired three boys the first year, re-
duced the number to two, and at pres
ent Dip Ken alone was making cigars,
although he was a partner.
The defendant himself took the stand
and through an interpreter stated that
he had been in the United States twenty
years. He lived ten years in San Fran
cisco and the balance of the time has
hss.. i Il. Les &c .ggeiess, following the bGsi=
ness of cigar making all the time. He
learned the trade the first year and
worked at it afterwards for American
people, among them being Mr.. Lcwis, on
Battery street, San Francisco.
On cross-examination the defendant
said he came to America on the steamer
Tycoo, that being the Chinese name Tor
the vessel. He insisted that he was q
partner in the Sun Lung com pany.
The last witness for the defendant was
an old Chinaman named Poo Chong,
who said he knew Dip Ken in San
Francisco 13 years ago, who worked for
him in his cigar factory.
United States Deputy Marshal F. B.
Goodrich was called by the district at
torney and said that when he made the
arrest Of Dip Ken at the cigar factory, he
was making cigars. Wong Fee asked what
was the matter. The witness told him
Dip Ken was not registered. Wong Fee
then said that Ken was working for
him and had been in the country for 10
years.
This closed the testimony, and after
brief arguments by counsel Commits
eioner Van Dyke stated that the govern
ment had made out its case, and he
would therefore, under act OF May 5,
1892, order the defendant to be impris-
oned in the county jail for two days and
then be deported to China.
The decision was somewhat unexpect-
ed to thoee in the court room, and no
one seemed to realize for moment that
an important one it was. The defend
ant himself did not seem to understand
that unless the United States Judge in
terferes he will be. started on his long
journey to the Celestial empire at the
expiration of the sentence imposed I'M
dsr the Geary act.
During the entire proceedings no refer
ence was made to the registration clause
of the deary act, and it will not be
touched upon unless habeas corpus pro-
ceedings are begun.
