New England Order of Protection.
 The New England Order of Protec- tion, organized eight years ago, has grown far beyond the widest dreams of it's incorporators. It has member ship of about eighteen thousand, fifteen hundred of this membership being in New Haven alone. There are eight lodges in this city, and the insurance carried by the members of these lodges amounts to almost three millions of dollars. .

Court Notes.

In the United States district court yesterday Judge Townsend handed down his decision in the case of Even Bros. against George L. White of New York, which was brought for an in- fringement of a patent. The patent was an improvement in the manufac- ture of paper board. The defendant did not deny the infringement, but set up defense that the patent was void for want of.novelty, and that the meth cd used in the patent was one which had been used before it was patented. The court held, however, that the pat ent should be sustained and that an in- junction be issued to prevent con- tinuance of the infringement, and also ordered an accounting between the par ties for the infringement in the past.

MAYOR VISITED BY ACRANK
HE DEMANDED s5yOOO FROM THE
 CITY,s GRIEF EXECUTIVE.

Finally Dropped to Ton Cents-ciaimed He
 Wanted the Money in order to Keep
 Aliye-was Intoxleated. So Mayor sar-
 gent Refused to Give Him Money.
 Mayor Sargent was yesterday after noon visited in his office in the city hall by an intoxicated crank. who at first demanded s5,o00 in cash from the chief executive of the city. but subse- auently moderated his demands to the modest sum of ten cents. He failed to secure either amount, however. and left the office disappointed. but without making any attempt at violence. The last seen of him he was leaving the city hall bitterly bemoaning his pov- erty.
 The stranger entered the mayors of- flee about 4 o'clock and proceeding to the little private enclosure on the left of the office calmly seated himself near the mayor. He was fairly dressed, of neat and clean appearance and al- though slightly under the influence of liquor, still did not seem to be a crank or one who would be likely to cause any trouble. He was about fifty years old.
 The mayor was engaged in writing at the time and 1t was several seconds before he looked up from his desk. In the meantime the stranger had re- moved his hat and was patiently wait ing the mayors convenience. When the latter finally looked up the stran- ger calmly moved his chair close up to the mayors desk and sitting down remained silent for several minutes. Finally the silence was broken by the mayor asking his visitor if he desired to see him on any special business.
 "Yes, do," ejaculated the stranger. T want $5,o00 and want you to give me that sum. need it badly and you can let me have it without any in- convenience to yourself. So give me the $5,00O"
 When asked by the mayor what he wanted of so much money the stranger said: Well, I need that amount in order to keep alive and you must let me have it."
 But haven't that amount with me-" said the mayor.
 Well, we can compromise the mat ter," said the stranger, Let me have s100 and will get the balance from some other wealthy man."
 q never carry any money with me-" said the mayor, "so you see can't even let you have $10O."
 Well give me ten cents then and I'll go," said the man, but the mayor refused to grant even this modest re- quest and the stranger, after waiting 8 few minutes to see if the mayor would not reconsider his determination, calmly placed his hat on one side of his head and withdrew from the room as quietly and noiselessly as he had en- tered 1t.
 The identity of the visitor is unknown to the mayor, nor can he imagine why he should have come to him with such a demand. Some of the officials around the hall state that they have seen the . man hanging around there for several days, but none seem to know either him or his business.
