 He Had Much Nerve.

The Ansonia Sentinel relates the fol- lowing: Robert Starr, a colored farm hand in the employ of Clark Beardsley, of White Hills, fell from a load of hay recently and fractured his right arm near the wrist. He continued at work during the morning, but in the after noon, the buse of the arm having caused the broken bone to force its way through the flesh. Starr thought it time to have 1t attended to, and without tell ing MT. Beardsley his intention, after finishing his work of unloading some furniture, he walked to this place. He entered the fish market of Henry Moul- throp and called for more oysters, and on MT. Moulthrop asking him what was the matter with his right arm, as he used his left hand entirely in eating the oysters, he showed his fractured arm with the protruding bone, the blood trickling down the hand, and remarked casually, "Oh, I hurt my arm a little this morning and am going to have it fixed, and thought I'd get a few oysters to brace up on."
 He went Ito Dr. Loomis' office, in Der by, where the fracture was reduced Starr refusing to take any anesthetic during the operation, which, owing to the neglect of the patient, was difficult and must have been an extremely pain full one, although the man did not vince during the operation. Dr. Loomfs char. acterized the mans nerve as something unparalleled in his experience"

THAT TARIFF AGAIN.
Letter From Texas Explains It's Work ngs In
that Democratic state.

The good people of Texas are at present
studying an object lesson in the imprac-
ticability of Democratic legislation. Two
years ago they were denouncing the Nc
kinley bill frou one end of the state to
the other and very effectively emphasized
their den unciatious by the vote they cast
for Grover Cleveland. The Democratic
party was put in charge of the govern
ment, the Mckinley bill Was repealed and
for day or two the good people of Texas
were so happy that they actually burned IL
few colored citizens in their extreme Joy.
A day or two afterwards the Spanish gov
ernment put on a retail atory tariff Of So
per barrel on American flour to get even
with the United States for repeating the
sugar clause of the Mckinley bill. This
act of the Spanish government precipi-
tated by the Democratic party destroyed
the commerce of the Texas flour mills
with Havana TO the extent of 5000 bar
rels per month. Texas will not only be de.
prived of that splendid commerce but will
have to pay % per cent more for its sugar
than when the Mckinley bill WAS in opera
lion, go shat the good people of Texas are
losing both at the spigot and the bung
hole
The above statements concerning the
flour trade between Texas aad Havana are
taken from letter written TO Messrs.
Dale, Nessley & Co., the mlllers of Udall
by \. Z. Lumm of Houston, one OF the
largest flour brokers in the south.

This morning a war will be commenced
against the joints.
Yesterday there was an immense batch
of evidence filed with the county attorney
against list OF places and there was
nothing left for him TO co but TO COM
mence proceedings whether he was willin &
or not
The papers, it is said, were TO be fled
yesterday afternoon. but Judge Reed was
not 1T the court house and that gentle
man has to sign them before they could
be filed Those who are in position TO
know say they will be signed up and filed
before 10 o'clock this morning, and served
before the sun is al his meridian height.
The proceedings that will be instituted
will be in the shape of injuncticns. IL
was impossible to ascertain who they were
against, but it is limited that they affect
no one, so far, east OF Main street except
one gambling house.
The county attorney was seen and while
he would not deny the report he absolutely
refused to give any information regarding
what has been done on the theory that 1t is
not good ethics TO give out court proceed
lngs TO the public before they are first
made matter OF record.
It is limited very strongly that this move
Is largely in the interest of the state ad-
ministration. The fact seems TO bs that
there is a terribly rotten spot in this city
which Breidenthal aud mis- crowd desired
TO cover up. The police department was
threatened with investigation that would
be disastrous to dwellings, interest in
this city and surrounding country and
something had to be done 10 stop IL. The
ProhibitiOnists, it is alleged by the Pop
politicians. never look beyond the actual
sale of whisky and if an arrest or two are
made that quiets them and they never
hunt farther. Ii is said to be clever blind
aud will serve to divert the scruti ny of the
law and order element away from the d.
rection of the greatest evil.
Some blood curdling stories are going
about Affidayits are piled high in Ger
tam quarters, and il this present scheme
fails the stink pots of China will be moth
ing TO the result of an Investigation. The
stories that are told are the most astonish
ing ever divuiged IN this city in connec-
tlon with municipal affairs.

DIR. PRATT TALKS.

To the Editor Of the Eagle.
To prevent any misconception of facts
that might arise from your Tuesdays re-
port of the organizing of an 1niatory and
Referendum club in this city, whose presi-
dent l am. permit NE TO say that the club
is not only anti-Lewelling but anti-par-
tisan. aiming primarily to break party
shuckles and make an earnest effort tor
political publication by returning to di-
rect democracy without the interventious
Of politician, caucus or convention be-
tween the voter and his will. Secondarily:
To simplify and cheaper government
subordinating the creature to the Creator;
reduce the governmental machinery and
expense to a minimum-as in the Swiss
cantons where this system obtains and to
restore and conserve justice To the people
We assert priori that, the independent
voter ia the dernier hope of the people,
that all parties, IN their nature, are cor
rupt and corrupting and rapidly enlarge
upon their constitutional tendencies. Fur
Their that, they are disturbing elements in
the body polite. noisy-unnecessary-e
hausting themselves aud impairiBg their
possible efficiency by vigorous and vicious
sham battles among themselves while pet
tifogging their cause before a long suffer
ing, deluded and plundered public.
My best thanks to the EAGLE for kind
words have ever been a patriot. "Our
Cause Is a good cause-goOd cause-gOod
friends and full of expectation .

"Veal?'
"Yes, veal"
The waiter wandered off TO the
kitchen and held an animated CONVEX
sation with the cook. Pretty soon he
came back and put plate of dark red
meat in front of the customer and be-
gan to pay close attention to the cleo
trio fan.
The customer turned the meat over
curiously with his fork. He inspected
it on both sides. Then he said, Hay,
