SIX Months in Jail For a Fellow WhC Disturbed the Salvation Army Meet

SIX Months in Jail For Fellow Who
 Disturbed the Salvation Army Meet
 ing.
 One of the freshest chaps who has ap- peared before the police court for some time was there this morning in the person of Fred Howard, residence nowhere, as he gave it. He. with a man named Edward Smith, went into the Salvation Army bar racks last night and by cursing and swear ing annoyed the meeting. Both were ordered out. Smith went quietly. Howard resisted and struck the janitor of the bar racks, Frank Steele, backing one of h4s eyes. Officer Pagan arrested Howard. This morning he acted as IS own lawyer and tried to shift the blame on to his com panion, who, he said, had not been rested for some reason or another. He was a stranger and there were hard cir cumstances against him, but he would not let down his head without offering some defense. He referred to Janitor Steele in sneering terms and was warned by Judge Root that a repetition would give him contempt of court sentence. Judge Root said it was an outrageous act and sen- fenced Howard to six months in jail.
 Jeremiah Horigan was charged with drunkenness and theft of watch and chain from James Shea The latter was in saloon on Bridge street yesterday afternoon and had drunk so much that he fell asleep. When he awoke he found that his watch and chain were gone. He sus- pected Horigan, who had been in the saloon with him. He was talking to Off cer Moore when Horigan passed them by. Shea chased after him and catching him held him until the officer came. Horigan admitted having taken the watch and turned it over to the officer. This morn- ing he said the watch was given him by Shea. to keep for him until he awoke. He was given thirty days in jail.

CannectIcut's Base Ball Leagues Crisis
 Will Come on Friday Afternoon.
 A special meeting of the Connecticut base ball league will be held in New Haven of Friday afternoon, at which it will prob ably be definitely decided whether there will be any league in this state this year. William Ford of Willimantic was in New Haven yesterday, and gave the local men some very favorable news from that city. He said there were good prospects that a team could be started and backed there, to take the place of Hartford. as the capitol city does not appear to make the necessary arrangements for team.
 It was said last evening, says the Palla- dium, that President and Secretary Harry R. Durant is anxious to withdraw from the state league, and that he would present his resignation at the next meeting. Should he do so there is very little doubt that it would be promptly accepted for the reason that he has done practically noth- ing to further the interests of the game in any part of the state.
 The New Haven men are determined to run the team in that city, league or no league, and the New Haven team will con- tinue its preparation to play ball without reference to the results of Fridays meet

GATHERING OF TOURISTS
The Reporter Visits & Rendezvous in
 South Brookiyn.

 South Brooklyn.
 South Brooklyn is overrun with tramps this spring. One of the residents told a reporter of the DEMOCRAT the other day that it costs nearly as much to feed the different hungry men who call at his house every day as it does to maintain his own family. Large crowds of the unem- ployed congregate down there every Sun- day in order to avoid arrest for vagrancy. Fires are built in the woods and the good things cooked and set up for meals would make some of the boarding house bosses around the center turn green with envy While one of these feasts was in progress Sunday a reporter happened to appear on the scene and the tale of woe told by some of the crowd would make the stoutest heart ache.
 One of the men said: "This is not a matter of choice; it is absolute necessity. We cannot get employment and being out of funds find ourselves compelled to resort to this method of keeping body and soul together. There is prejudice against giving man work in this town unless he can prove that he has lived in the place for the past year. What is one going to do? If you are caught asking for a meal of victuals you will be arrested and sent to iail as criminal. What then? As soon as your term expires you are turned out into the world, and having neither money nor friends you must resort to the same old game"
 There were at least fifty men in the party and the speaker, who wa3 an intelli- gent fellow, was listened to with attention. The gang had a large iron pot in which they were boiling coffee and all con- tributed something to the feast, this being a rounding up place, after the town had been canvassed for food. It was motley Cntherinp

Miss Marie Jansen's first appearance in this city as a star, at the opera house on Friday evening next,is sure to attract wide attention from the theatre-going public. The entertainment. it is promised, is one of the best and most delightful among the light productions of the season. There can be no question that in Glen MacDon- ough's clever farce she is afforded more and better opportunities for the display of her versatility and widely ranging talents than Tn any production. comic opera or otherwise in which she has ever appeared.

 This Afternoon Discovered in Time

What Might Have Been Disastrous Fire
 This Afternoon Discovered in Time
 At 3:45 this afternoon dense volumes of smoke began to pour out of shed in the rear of the store occupied by F. J. Rametti and c. Henry Squires at 132 Bank street. An alarm was rung and when the com- panies reached the scene fierce blaze was raging.
 The flames cut their way into the shoe store and the store in the south side of the building occupied by A. NJ. Moore, milliner, and Snow, the florist.
 For few minutes it looked as though the building which is a one story structure owned by the Platt estate, would be de- stroyed. but a couple of good streams ex- tinguished the blaze and the principal damage will be by water. All are fully insured.
 The fire originated from a pile of rub bish, which some one left burning in the shed. F. J. Rametti attempted to quench the flames, but was unsuccessful.

Owner of Property Can Forbid Fishing if
 State Furnishes Fish.
 Many people have a mistaken idea in regard to the rights of the owner of a stocked brook. There is wide impress sion that because the state fish commission supplies trout fry for the stocking of brooks they are free for anyone to fish in. The fish commission is established to keep trout in existence and anyone may get as many of the fry as desired by simply mak ing application.
 part of the owners possessions, and the fry which he places in the brook are just as much his to do with as he pleases as is the land on either side. The posting of a brook is the legal barrier to fishing by the public, and where notices are displayed no one has right to fish without permission. whether the state furnished the fry or not.
