ANIMALS BADLY TREATED.
Work Being Done by the Come cticut Hu-
 ~ mane Society.

Work Being Done by the Connecticut Hu- ~ mane Society.
 The Hartford Courant says: Gid White and Milo Whitney, two residents of South Britain, had two old horses that were given to them. They used the animals daily, but as the horses came to them without price they did not think enough of the services they obtained from the animals to give them proper food and shelter. Agent Thraai of thesHumane society was in that geo. tion the other day and discovered the two animals. They were badly used up. MT. Thrall told the owners they would have to give the horses better care. MT. Thrall tried to impress upon the men that the horses had feeling. They could not see 1t in that light and told him he could shoot the animals if he wanted to. He took the men at their word and each man had a dead horse when MT. Thrall came away.
 Complaint has come. to the Humane society that James Mulfigan of flaw .leyville has provided his cattle with no, shelter this winter, and a similar com- plaint has been made against Seth Warner of Roxbury, In not providing shelter for his horses Both men have been notified that they must provide shelter for the animals, ot means Wllll be taken to compel them. l

POOR RETSARD
ws. psspsrai. Win Hanger.


 Windsor Locks. Dec. LA fox was discovered yesterday on the Ice formed on c point running out into the river above the Seymour paper mill. He was watching flock of ducks swimming in the water a short distance away. Louis spader started after the fox with gun. but just as he was about to shoot the fox slid on into the water and started for the. bank further down stream. Some men gave chase and the fox then started for the east shore. The long swim and cold water tired him so that he did not reach the shore until nearly down to the toll bridge. where Joseph White was waiting for him and drew him out by the neck. Reynard must have been desperate from hunger to come so close to the village. and proba- ply came down the tow path from up the river.

GOV.-ELECr COFFIN'S STAFF.
HENRY $. PECK OF THIS CITY FOR
 COMMIssARY GENERAL.

Attorney George ID. wstrous of This City
 far Judge Advocate Gsnorai-Other Re-
 po,ts conesrning the Stan Appointments.
 It is reported on good authority by prominent New Haveners that Cover nor-eiect Cofin has rendered the posi- ton of commissary general upon his stan to Henry s. Peck of this city. Mir. Peck is aide-de-camp on the stan Communicated -chief Lawlor of Illinois of the Grand Army of the Republic. Mr., Peck is one of our leading New Haven men, very highly esteemed by all. He Is past senior commander of Admiral Foote post. G. A. R., and Is a lieutenant of the Second company, Governors Foot Guard. He Is gentle man of wealth and refinement. For eighteen, years he conducted a large bonded warehouse In Brooklyn, N. Y.. after which he returned to this city and purchased the Ives residence on West Chapel street. which he enlarged and beautiHed. and which has since been his residence.
 MT. Peck Is a'war veteran. He served in the old Twentieth c. V.
 It is also reported on reliable author ity that Attorney George D. Watrous. who is well known as one of this city's prominent and most esteemed attor- neys, has been rendered the position of judge advocate general.
 It is also understood that Governor Coffin has fixed upon General c. P. Graham of Middletown to serve as adju- tant general This appointment will vindicate General Graham in the part he took against ex-Governor Bulkeley, over the use of the armory In Hartford for polo playing
 For quarter-master general the gov- ernor-eleot has probably selected W. E.. Disbrow of Bridgeport. Ex-Colonel Grove of the Fourth regiment, of Nor walk, was the strongest contestant for this place against Disbrow. Crowe's son will now be appointed aide on the governors staff, with the rank of colo mel.
 Dr. Bowen of Woodstock will, 1t is thought, be named as surgeon general There was big contest over this place among the surgeons in the different regiments. Bowen is a homeopathic physician and the surgeons are all alopaths. It is fight between schools. Governor Coffin may find some difficult ty to emerge satisfactorily from this controversy.
 Major J. H. Jarman of Hartford is slated for the position of paymaster general. He is well known Hartforder and is former New Haven boy. In his early young manhood he was for several years chief assistant at the North Insurance office here. He has many relatives here.
 The executive secretary will come from Middletown. X {

DEATH OF 4 LAW STUDENT.
Lawrence Whitney Hooker of Los Angeles,
 Cal, Dies of Blood Poisoning.

Cal, Dies of Blood Poisoning. Lawrence Whitney Hooker of Los Angeles, Cal, senior of the Yale law school died at the Yale infirmary about 8 o'clock yesterday morning after a short illness from blood poisoning. Last week Tuesday small bunch appeared on his under lip, but nothing was thought of 1t, he believing that 1t was something similar to boil, and would soon disappear. Instead it gradually grew larger, and 1t became hard. Last Saturday his face began to swell badly and he was unable to eat his meals. Dr. c. Purdy Lindsey was called to attend him. Symptoms of blood poison ing was discovered, and Dr. Carmalt was called in in consultation. He roomed at 63 Grove street, and when he became dangerously III he was re- moved to the hospital and thence to the Yale infirmary on Sunday. Two operations were performed on his lip to see, if possibly his life might not be saved, but in vain, however, as the malady attacked his brain and he grew delirious and remained in that condi- tion until his death.
 MT. Hooker was only twenty -one years of age, and came to this city in 1893, entering the law school at that time. Among his classmtaes he was exceedingly popular. He was the son of John D. and Katherine Hooker of Los Angeles, Cal, his mother being a niece of the late Prof. William D. Whitney of Yale. Other relatives are President Dwight of Yale and Thomas Hooker of this city. He was also a nephew of Judge s. E. Baldwin of this city, and was grandson of the late General Joe Hooker, Fighting Jo&," of the United States army.
 One peculiar sad incident connected with his death is the fact that only few weeks ago his parents came to this city from California to make him a visit, and left two weeks ago for their home, leaving their son in the best of health and spirits. Information received yesterday morning is to the effect that they had but reached home. The news of the death of their son was sent them there yesterday morning. Besides father and mother, the de- ceased leaves one sister, Miss Marion Hooker. The body of the deceased was taken charge of by relatives.
 Public announcement of MT. Rockers death was made in the law school to the members of the senior class yes terday morning, and a class meeting taken. Besides being member of the law school MT. Hooker was a member of the Young Mems Republican club of this city. ,,.
 Following are the resolutions adopted by the class of '95, Yale law school:
 Where, God in his wisdom has seen fit to take from us by death our class! mate, Lawrence Whitney Hooker there- fore be 1t
 Resolved, That we. the class of '95, Yale law school, do hereby desire to show our appreciation of his manly and Christian character known and en- deared to us by daily association, and to express our deep sense of personal loss and our sympathy with his parents and relatives in their bereavement, and further, Resolved, That these resolutions be published and a copy be sent to his parents. @&'

love liberty and honor those who espouse
its cause.
Not since the unwilling OF the Lee monu-
