friends, was tried before commission of
lunacy at Abbeyille this morning, and by
that body was found to be insane. She

Mrs. Reedy came to Wilcox county MANY
years ago from Alabama and secured a
school, which she taught with skill and
satisfaction to her patrons. She con
tinued to teach until few years ago.

on the hospitality of the people. She
would take her abode with a family and
remain week and month, then in a
matter of fact way would proceed to the
residence of some one else. | believe she
was always charitaby cared for in this
way. She was one of the most cultivated
women in the county.

laid upon the graves of the heroic head,
their deeds of valor on the field. in the

space of time Since the men and women
OF the south made those extraordinary
sacrifices for principle many years have
passed and conditions have undergone a
radical change. Butneither lapse of time

heroes. One day of each year the south
devotes to its dead And it does honor 10

A New Jersey supreme court Justice he
came iudiciOusly displeased with himself
as circuit Judge and sternly issued a
writ of mandamus against himself to
bring himself before himself in one ca
pacity in proper submission to himself in
another capacity. An attorney applied
to him in the circuit court for an order
which involved a ruling on the constitu-
tionality of an incc Yporation law. The
Judge refused it, To issue the order
would result in number of complica-
tons. What can be done them" asked
the attorney. "Well," replied the Judge.
''you can make application to me as a SUI
preme court judge for a writ of mandamus
to compel myself as a circuit court Judge
to show before myself as a supreme court
judge why refuse to grant the writ. If
you can convince me as a supreme court
Judge that the law is constitutional, will

1t appears that woman with distaff
has no. been unaiterably determined upon
as the design to be placed upon the
worlds fair quarter-doilar coins, as was
announced the other day. There is talk
nov OF putting the head of Queen Isa-
bella on one side and crown on the
other. But that is hardly a good idea.
There should be no royal insignia on the
coins of a republic, whether they be only
for souvenir purposes or for general cir
culation. The distaf is much better
than the crown, and a Goddess of Liberty
is best of all

of comment and has caused warrants to
be issued against the policemen, charging
tgem with assault with intent to murder
Mr.. Kassel was very indignant over his
treatment. Miller Bcarman and Henry
Basche were also arrested and taken to the
barracks at the same timeon the charge of

highly wrought up over the matter and
the case will no doubt be very interesting

The Philadelphia Public Ledger, Mr..
George w. 'Childs' paper, has made its
appearance in enlarged, improved and
illustrated' form. 1t was a blanket
sheet" paper, and was, to some extent,
unhandy for the reader with limited time
at his disposal. In its new form it
is neat, pretty and compact. 1t prints
sixteen or twenty pages, according to the
demands of the day, the pages being
22l%x15 inches in size. Heretofore it has
not printed pictures, but under the new
order of things the doings of the day and
other matters of interest will be illus
trated by competent artists, and, to Judge
by the pictures in the first edition under
the new form, its illustrations will be
much above the average printed by the
daily press. The Ledger was founded in
1885, and has been ENLARGED fourteen
times, indicating the steady and healthy
growth it has deservedly enjoyed In the
foregoing the improvement in the Ledger
has been considered in a mechanical sense.
For it is doubtful if it could be improved
otherwise. Its ably conducted editorial
page has always treated questions of the
day with conservatism and witch a high
purpose in view, while its news and mis-
cellaneous pages have presented only
Legitimate news and choice selections to
its readers in short the paper has re-
aected the personality of its honored
proprietor

MORTALITY RECORD.
Deaths and Funerals of People Y


Deaths and Funerals of People Well
Known Here.
Robert L. Fruin, aged 80 years, died
at his home, on the road beyond the
aims house, about the middle of the
afternoon yesterday. Although it was
known that Mr. Fruin was not well, his
sickness was not considered serious and
death was wholly unexpected. Monday
morning he arose complaining of pains
in his side and in the intestines. Medi-
cal aid was summoned and he seemed to
be quite well yesterday. Street Inspect
or Wright and William McGrath called
on him in the afternoon and they with
his brother John II. Fruin were with
him at the time death occurred. His
brother inquired il he had rested
well during the night and Mr. Fruin an
swered that he had obtained but very
little rest. In a minute or two after.
wards he gasped for breath and expired.
DIR Hayes, who attended Mr. Fruin, says
that death was caused by internal stran.
gulation of the bowels. This is one OF
the most fatal of affections and is caused
by twisting or knotting of loop of the
| intestlves with the abdomen. Mr. Fruin
was born in Ireland and came to this
country about thirty-elght years ago
He has resided in this city the whole
time, except for a short period when he
lived in Torrington. He was a widely
known and much respected member OF
the community. He conducted meat
business at the West End for some time
giving it up to accept the position Of
superintendent of the almshonse ir

years, voluntarily resigning. He he has
been employed as a foreman on the
street department for some time. He
was strongly identified with the demo
cratic party of Waterbury. He leaves 6
widow and three brothers, James j.
John II. and William L. Fruin, an
three sisters, Mrs Charles Hayes, Mrs
Edward McGrath and Mrs James J
Henebry. David II. Hayes and Officer

RAILROAD MATTERS.
President Parsons of the New Englan
Preparing to Cut Rates.

~N~~ A~N~~~S'
The New York Evening Post says:
"If President Charles Parsons of the
New York & New England Railroad
company and his present board of
directors remain in control six weeks
from now the passenger fares between
New York and Boston, which have been
kept unchanged for the last ten years,
will, Mr. Parsons says, be materially
lowered. The reduction will be con
fined solely to passenger rates. The
New York & New England at present
has two entrances into New York, one
by rail over the New York & Northern
road, and the other by the Norwich line
of sound steamers. On both of these
routes it is the present intention of
President Parsons and his colleagues to
reduce the fares, and although the exact
amount of the reduction cannot be def
nitely stated as yet, it is likely, Judging
from President Parsons statement, that
the new rates will be 50. so by boat and
a. by the cars. as against the present
rates of So and IS respectively"

SHORTER HOURS,
Hearing On the Bill FavOring Surfac
Railroad Employees.

Hearing On the Bill Favoring Surface
Railroad Employees.
The committee on labor gave hear
ing yesterday afternoon on the proposed
law to regulate the hours of labor of
surface railroad employees.
Manager Kelsey of the New Haven
and West Haven and other roads op-
posed the bill on the ground that it did
not give any of the men the right to
work longer than a specified time
should they care to do so. Thomas F.
Mahon of Hartford, who represented
the Central Labor Union, spoke in favor
of the proposed bill. One reason why
he advocated the measure was that 1t
would permit street car drivers and
conductors to get acquainted with their
families.
Ii. Holton Wood of the Ansonia road
appeared in opposition to the bill.
George E. Terry of Waterbury, who
appeared for the road here, said his
company would pay the expenses to
Hartford of any employee who wished
to attend the hearing.
After considerable talk the committee
adjourned to tomorrow. The bin
under discussion was introduced by Mr.
HealeV.
