WORTHWHILE.

The home of Robert .Zeiner was the scene of a very pretty wedding last Wednesday, October 10, at which time Mir Zeiner's youngest daughter, Flora A. Zeiner, was united in marriage to Burton B. Booth of Second Hill. Pastor Lud- dington of the Baptist church officiated l and large party of relatives and friends gathered to give the young couple God speed. The bride was very tastily attir- ed in an ashes of roses gown, trimmed with figured silk of lighter shade. The presents were numerous and beauti- full consisting of two easy chairs, bed and table linen, silver knives and forksa pictures, mirror, two beautiful lamps, a clock, and very many other articles of use and ornament. Friends were present from New York, Danbury, Sherman and New Milford. Just as the words were pronounced which made them "one flesh" the sun burst forth from his hiding bath ing hill and dale in a flood of glorious beauty. That their married life may be as bright as that sunshine is the earnest wish and confident hope of their host of friends .-[One who was there. 3 l..

FIREMEN ATTENTION!

' The engine and hook and ladder truck of the Watertown fire department arriv ed, Monday. The engine with its new white coat and gold trimmings surmount- ed with dazzling bright lanterns is d s'little dandy" Words can hardly ex- press the beauty, style and artistic work manship displayed on the hook and lad der truck. It is painted lavender color, trimmed with red and black. Chief Beers says the pump in the truck is one of the most perfect productions of the kind. William Barnes hitched up A. N. Woolson's span to the truck and drove it around town. As it sped through the streets with the changing of the big gong it drew attention and created great en- thusiasm. Hurrah for the fire company.

ILLEGAL FISHING.
Salmon Taken During the Close
Season.

Salmon Taken During the Close
Season.
1t doesn't seem to help the salmon any that
the legislators OF California have passed law
making close season for them from Septem.
Der to October 1. The history of past years
mas been that they were harassed more during
that period than any other and, from all &C.
counts, they will have a hard time OF 1t this
season.
Already the Fish Commission has received
notlce that fishermen. especially those on the
oacfam nt0 River, were prepared 10 catch
salmon during the Gloss season, and it Is pre-
Suned deputies on that stream have been
Instructed 10 keep keen eve out for offenders
But Tor years Fish Commissioners have been
lolo the same thing and they, In turn, have
nOtlhed their deputies, yet the fishermen fished
ana the hsh were caught. From all OF which
several people have made so bold as 10 presume
thdt tney VIII DO so this year. Some even go
50 Idr as 10 say that more extensive Drepara-
IONS HaYe bren made this season than ever be-
lore ana That the catch Will be correspOndingly
larger
1t is reported, too. that great numbers have
Deen caught aud are now sailed. The river is
iult OIL china" hooks, which not only catch
some salmon, but hook and tear MANY oil hers

fisherman, was in the city yesterday and he
says mere Is not doubt but that the law has
already been grossly violated and he estimates
tDat II not prevented the Illegal fishers Will
make catch OF from 10000 10 $4,000 fish
during the month.
All OF which would go 10 show that now that

A Loss for the Union
League Club.
Its Ex"Assistant Secretary Gets
Away With Three Hundred
Dollars of Club Dues.

The Union League Club is mourning the loss
OF its assistant secretary. William D. Shuts.
and with him several hundred dollars of the
wealth of the swell Republican organization
AS far as all investigation of the matter has
shown. Shuts got away with sum of GER
tanly 5000. and probably $500. appropriated
from the dues and imitation fees which passed
through his hands constantly. Shuts is not In
town. he has not been In town since July %
when be departed on trip TO the Truckee
River 10 eaten trout. An acquaintance saw
him later In Sacramento and he was still fish
ing.
His shortage was first discovered at the re-
cent receptien to NJ. NJ. Estee, the guberna-
torlal candidate. man presented himself at
the door and was refused admittance. lie iu-
sisted he was member and had paid his initia-
ton fees and dues TO Shuts. There was no
record found in tile register, but IL was discov-
cred that leaf had been torn out, presumably
with this mans election upon It. The matter
was pTobed ana L. was found that for the last
few months Shuts had appropriated different
sums, amounting in all to The total given.
Shuts had been assistant secretary tor three
years. lie had salary OF 500 month
George Pippy, the secretary, did not like his
methods and Drought him up before the board
of directors for no, turning in the funds He
was reprimanded, got mad, raised row, and
was given notice that after August i his SER
vices would no longer be required. Addison
Klttredge was appointed in his place.
Kittredge exported his books before Shurz
left ana found things all right, but this was
because nothing had been heard from members
who had paid their dues TO Shuts, who rad
appropriated them. When members were noii-
fed they began to protest they had paid, and
as all have hot yet Deen heard from IL is not
known exactly what sum Shuts got away with.
AS stated. 1t cannot be more than $500.
There are 400 members In the club, aud the
amount Shuts had TO handle every month was
about $500. He was not permitted to have a
balance greater than $50 on hand, and was
obliged To turn IN bis accounts every day.
He has moi been located since be left. and il
is thought lie has gone East to his home in
Fort Plains, n. Y, where his family lives and
is quite wealthy
Shuts was 27 years old and good dresser
One man whom lie did up was Germany, the
tailor. He got Sl6 pair Of trousers from him
aud told him lie would square IL on the dues.
he did not do II, and now Germany not only
mourns the pants. but also SIC of dues which
he had to pay. The San Francisco Laundry
was left in tie lurch for $50, and several other
tradesmen are lamenting bills of small amounts.
The shortage in Shuts accounts was discov-
cred over month ago. but il was kept quiet.
This Is the second time the club has been de-
frauded, and lt Is rather amusing fact that
Shuts exp rted the books OF the man who pre-
ceded him aud discovered the amount short.
Secretary George PiDpy says that il Shuts
can be located he Will be arrested and brought
back.

The counsel for General Ezera and his
companions do not say these things
directly, bur, from Information oblainable

Up in the rooms in the California Hotel
yesterday afternoon the general was en-
joYing himself after lunch viewing what
of San Francisco was lying before him
through his feld-glasses. The view was
not as exciting as some he had witnessed
through these same lenses. There was
sunshine in the air and the fitting of
sparrows on dusty roofs and cooling
breeZes. 1t was a picture of city content
ment and suited the surroundings in the
generals rooms. On the table in front OF
him was beautiful bouquet of roses and
by his side on a chair was the sturdy
frame of little John Paxton, the donor.
The little fellow is not yet IL, bright-faced
ana rosy, and lives with his mother at The
hotel. Several days ago he called upon
the general and became much impressed
with him. Nearly every afternoon since
be has called to tighten the surroundings
of the prisoner with his smiles and bis
flowers. General EZeta is much taken
with him and often during the visit he
pstted the head of the little fellow and
smiled sorrowfully as he thought of his
own from whom he has been so cruelty
parted.
