Superior Court - Civil Side - Judge
 Prentice.

Jodge Prentice yesterday after lengthy hearing decided to refuse to grant license to sell liquor to Edward E. Sanford at
 Woodmont and thereby revokes the deci-
 sion of the county commissioners. The
 question came up on an appeal from the
 decision of the county commissioners. At
 torneys Cleveland and Newton appeared
 for the residents of Woodmont who object
 ed to the license and w.. B. Stoddard for
 Sanford.
 Evidence showing that George W. Sam ford, the father of the applicant, had per sistently violated the law WAS admitted, af-
 ter which the jodge refused to grant the
 license, saying:
 "No man who violates the law shall get license from me, nor his son when he bears the same relations to his fathers family that this young man doee; nor any third person who is set up as the ostensi- ble proprietor. In this case 1t Is too ap- parently an effort to evsde the conse- | euences of violating the law. The boy 1 lives with his father, his father is inter ested in the placs, and any evidence against | the father Is admissible"
 Arguments were also made yesterday in the suit of Henry F. Hall of Wallingford against Lucy N. Plerson of Waterbury | Decision was reserved.

octogenarians, but never one that
surpassed her in loveliness, wit and
positive jollity She still has her
ardent admirers among men as well
as women, and now and then re-
ceives an earnest proposal from
some lonely old fellow, The last of
these aged lovers, when refused
and relegated to the position of a
brother, urged her to reconsider
the matter and make it a subject
of prayer, But she quietly said;
'Im not going to bother the
Lord with questions | can answer
myself. "

Tribute to the Poet Holmes.

Across the ocean, by cablegram
comes the following merited trib
utes to Americas dead poet,
Holmes:
The London News says editorially
eve think it is certain that as a pc
ct, Oliver Wendell Holmes will live
His prose is full of singular charm
yet the changefulness of mood, SC
characteristic of his genius, finds
more adequate expression in metre
The Morning Post says; EN-.
glishmen will not soon forget it was
Oliver Wendell Holmes head that
prompted the hand which wrote
some of the most fervent words in
which this country was ever apos.
trophized." "
The Standard says; "The death
Of DR.. Holmes will be regretted by
the whole English world, His writ
ings doubtless will continue to have
much influence in fostering good
feeling between England and Amer
ca"
The Daily Telegraph says: "The
English speaking and reading
world loses in him one of the most
illustrious men of letters and subtle
humorists of the century"
The Daily Chronicle says: with
in his own limits DR.. Holmes won ar
almost unique position of universa
love and respect.
The Times says that as a talkel
and hero writer, DR., Holmes was
unique, but as a poet he was over
shadowed by Lowell, Referring t.
his kindness toward England, thu
Times adds: ''Iu return England
entertains a feeling of persona
affection for his name and memory
He will live not only as favoritC
author, but also as a beloved per
son.

pENsION ATTORNEY IN TROUBLE

There are thousands of fraudu-
lent pensioners in the United States.
Once in while some of such rascals
or would-be rascals come to grief.
The following news from Iowa, tells
now a rascally pension attorney
came to grief;
Special Examiner Waite of the
pension bureau has filed the docu-
nents captured in the famous tin
)oX in Pension Agent Van Leuven's
)rivate Office at LymanSprings, la.
These documents are mostly in the
'orm of correspondence, incriminat-
ng upon their face, between Van
Leuven and certain boards of medi-
cal examiners with whom he had
relations. Nearly all of the indict-
nents found against the pension
attorney are based on these letters,
In all about 700 papers are filed,
Some of these letters are to pen
sion claimants whom Van Leuven
advised to grease the members
)f the boards in order to have their
examinations go through smoothly.
Others are letters between the
agent and surgeons in which
terms are agreed for raising
ratings and fixing up the papers in
the case. 1t appears that Van
Leuven gave claimants to under
stand that this payment of money
to medical examiners was the usual
thing and it did not appear that
there was as a rule corrupt intent
on the part of the claiment. Some
of the documents show that afli-
davits as to physical disability were
brought at an average rate of about
80 cents a line. One letter makes
an offer to a physician at Lincoln,
Neb, to pay So for an affidavit coy
covering diseases of the stomach
and heart disease, The doctor sent
the affidavit, but demanded $40 for
it, This physician, whose name is
not revealed, has since testified that
he has made a large number of ain-
dayits and that his price ranged
from So to $40, Aflldavits we're
made to cover all the diseases known
and in order to get the applicants
before examination boards, with
whom he was friendly, printed
forms were used for anidavits and
claimants were asked to copy them
in their hands and sign them, Many
did not realize what they were do
ing
The fling of the papers is a sur
prise TO the public.
