Court Notes.

In the superior court, civil, side yes terday afternoon. the arguments in the case of Edward Peltier against the Bradley, Damn & Darlington company to recover s1.Ooo damages were made and decision reserved.
 At the instance of ex-Senator Holden of Ansonia Judge G. W. Wheeler of the superior court granted Catherine Clancy of Ansonia a writ of habeas corpus, summoning her son, Joseph Clancy of this city, to appear in court to-day and show by what right he had taken his son from her custody. Clancy's wife died several weeks ago and his mother, the plaintiff in the above action, was appointed guardian of his son, Joseph, jr., aged four years. by the probate court of Derby in 1889. Last week the father took the boy away from school in Ansonia and brought him to this city against the will of the lad and his guardian. Mrs. Clancy wants to have the custody of the boy, and he prefers to live with her rather than with his father. The court will decide which shall keep the boy. The hearing on the case will take place at 10 o'clock to- day.

B0ARDMAH SCHOOL.

APrcposed Change Regarding Rainy Days
 The teachers of the Boardman school will recommend to the board of educa- ticn that changes be made in the mat ter of sessions on rainy days at that school. As it stands now. If the fire alarm signal Is given at 8 a. m. there Is no morning session. and if 1t rings at ll:ao a. m. there is no afternoon session. The change wanted is that there be q session all day or none at all
 The reason given Is that the school draws its scholars from all parts oi the city and neighboring towns, and when there Is no session in the other schools in the afternoon the Boardman scholars are dismissed. The majority of the pupils have their dinner with them. and could stay on n rainy afternoon as we'll as on a pleasant day without being exposed to the rain, as they eat their lunch in the building.

WESTTILLE CALMING DOWN.

Another Chapter on the situation of Affairs. To the Editor of the JOURNAL and COURIER.
 westville, Dec. 13.-There is but little, if any, change in the situation at the scene of war. As yet there has been no interference with the malls. There was some trouble on the Edgewood ave- nue line yesterday and 1t was thought that the renegades had seized the road, but later on it was found ito be due to other causes. That the com munity, however, are thoroughly de- moralized as shown by the fact that the leaders of the outlaws who threatened the life of the man who discovered their retreat walked boldly into the post of flee this morning and demanded his mail. The suggestive way in which his hand wandered to his hip pocket and the cold glitter in his eye convinced those present that he was well heeled. He was therefore promptly served and allowed to depart without molestation. A1A6CWOO0 K. of F., have made arrangements to visit Seymour Friday evening, but may; have to defer the same until the crisis is past, as the presence of every able bodied man is required here at pras- ent. It is said, owing to the immense expense, no attempt will be made to re- pair the damaged done by the villains, consequently the beautiful pleasure ground, with its wealth of cedars and mullen stalks will be lost to the public. The present unsettled condition of things has created a growing feeling in favor of consolidation, and we think it would be a good time for those who favor the scheme to get in little nisL sionary work. A word to the wise is sufficient We want peace at any price.

WILL NOT APPROVE THE BILL.
City Financiers and Harbor CommIssioner'
 at Odds Over a Small Bill.

City Financiers and Harbor Commissioners
 at odds Over a Small Bill.
 At the regular weekly meeting of the board of finance yesterday afternoon there was considerable discussion over the payment of a bill of $25 presented by Deputy Harbor Master Captain E. s. Dow and approved by. the board of harbor commissioners. The regular weekly payrolls of the police, fire, health and public works departments were ap- proved without opposition, and then came up the contested bill of $25.
 The bill in question was an old one for $25 for the quarterly rental of tel ephone in the house of Captain E. s. Dow. Captain Dow is the deputy har- bor master, and his bill has been ap- proved by the harbor commissioners and presented to the city for payment The city f1nanciers have up to the present time, however, neglected to approve the bill, and had notified the harbor commissioners to be present yesterday afternoon and explain why the city should be called upon to pay the bill.
 At the meeting yesterday afternoon, however, not a single member of the board of harbor commissioners ap- peared before the board of finance In view of these facts the city finan- ciers decided not to approve the bill until some of the members of the har- bor commissioners explained their reasons for approving the bill. In or der to give them another opportunity to do this 1t was decided to send them another notice to be present, and in the event of their not responding, 1t is probable that an attempt will be made to compel their attendance by the is suance of subpoenaes.
 The city financiers claim that the of- flee of deputy harbor master is a state office, that he is appointed by the gov ernor, that he Is not under the super- vision of the board of harbor commis- sioners and in view of all these facts the bill should be paid by the state and not by the city. The deputy farbor master also files bond with the state.

The Friendly Brlgands.

A German lady told me that about four years ago a family of compatriots of hers rented e villa for the season near Palermo. All the elders were im- peratively, and quite unexpectedly, summoned home, but convalescent daughter could only leave the south at the risk of her Afe. What were these poor people to do? Every one said that the country twas so unsafe;" life and property were mot respected at all." My friends friends consulted g. neigh bor who knew Sicily long and well, and they received this strange advice: Gall upon the brigands; say that you confide in their honor; that you leave ydur villa and the young lady in their keepingA-all will then be we'll" And all was well!
 Nightly one or other of the dreaded band would call to inquire after the health of the convalescent. Fresh flowers were presented on each occa- sion. After g while the brigands sang serenade. Judging it to have been appreciated. from time to time they re- peated their musical attention. The girl felt that these indeed must be "the mildest-mannered (men) that ever cut a throat" Needless to say, the gentle brigands never troubled any person and never appropriated any property belonging to that villa. When, two years later. the signorina tedesca was about to be married, her friendly out laws sent her pretty and valuable present. Gentgeman's Magazine.

THE INCOME TAX.
A Suggestion or Two From We'll Kno

A Suggestion or Two From Q We'll Known
 Citizen.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 will dispense with preliminaries and come down to solid facts with regard to the income tax. The income tax law is spinning web move treacherous more unholy, wicke1 and perjurous than the spiders web for the fly and vii give my reasons: First, the bill came from the other side of the Mason and Dixon line. The purpose was to us look at the collection of the tax. People with an income of $6,Oo0, $7000 or sS,0O0 can avoid paying taxes by wholesale perjury. Second, the office holders will run great risk of becoming blackmailers, bribetakers and corrup- tionists. I can judge the future by the past. At the end of the war we had a manufacturing tax. There were more men ruined by blackmailing than half of the United States debt amounted to. And consider the secretaries and col- lcCLOlS, ACALoy DOOhS oiAN SSoIAoAAC-y' know of a blackmailing case at the close of the war where the revenue collector went to manufacturer and demanded 5000, or he would close up his shop for irregularities. He was offered good bondsman or certified check. The answer was. 'Nothing but $5,OOO in bills.' The money was drawn and paid and the man is dead and buried with the secret as to where the money has gone. My idea would be to raise revenue by renewing the check stamp on deeds and mortgages, and on stocks and bonds. On every share of stock every time it is sold certain amount of stamps should be put. This would work honestly and bring in a good revenue. It seems as if our rep resentatives in Washington could de- wise better way to increase revenues than by an income tax and would avoid the humiliation of perjury that seems unavoidable.
 I sincerely believe that deeds, quit claims, sugar trust stock and all other trusts and stocks can bear tax and that the same will be easier to collect and can be more honestly collected, and with less expense than the income tax. Respectfully Yours,
 #.t- L. H. FREEDMAN.
