THE PITY OF IT.

 Judge COwell Orslers the Beer Ca aptured
 at the Recent Raids Destroy ed-NI-
 chaeI CurIey Not Guilty.
 Max and Saivil Kerpleman were in court this morning with their attorney, Judge Lowe, who exhibited Max to the court as an imbecile. Detective Egan told how he ordered Max to move his team from two different crosswalks. The last order he refused to comply with. and when the officer was taking him to the station Saivil interfered and tried to pull him away. Officer Pagan assisted the detective, Judge Cowsll said a warning to two such idiots would fall on deaf ears. He thought fine might awaken them. He fined them $2 each. Judge LS~e paid the fine and Judge Cowell told him to charge it up to charity.
 Orders were issued by the court this morning to destroy the beer and liquor found in Ella Cooks place and the Gate house. Judge CoweY said It should be destroyed not drank.
 In the case of Michael Curley Judge Cowell said the evidence was pretty strong that there was keg of beer in the tenant: house. If the officers had tasted the beel in the pail. as they should have done. il might change the case. He found Curley not guilty. Attorney Webster said in re ply that he thought the officers had nC right to taste the beer. Attorney Low, said if it was his beer he would sue then | if thav did

.DR O'HARA'S INNING.

 A Decision Favorable to Him tn the |. Celebrated Brennan Estate Case.
 Judge Lowe gave partial decision in the Brennan estate case this morning. He. sustained the administrator, Dr B A.. O'Hara, in his account, but reduced the doctors fees and also the fees of Attorney ONeill. The administrators fees are cut trom $500 to s200 and Attorney O'Neill's bill from $500 to $500. All the claims rela- tive to the improvements made about the house are allowed.
 The New York claim of g. 800 is not al- lowed as Judge Lowe did not know whether he had jurisdiction over that or not. At torneys Burpes and Webster. who represen- ted the New York claim. were willing to have it allowed in court, but Attorney Kennedy. who represented the heirs. ob- iected and said New York courts had the jurisdiction. Judge Lowe said he would | look up the law on that point and give his decision two weeks from to-day. The decision is practicallyA victory for Dl OHara, the administrator.

IN THE BAGGAGE CAR.
Dogs Mistress Wanted to Accom-
 pany the Animal.

Dogs Mistress Wanted to Accom-
 pany the Animal.
 It is not often that lady begs the priv ilege of riding in a baggage car, and when refused by the baggagemaster appeals to the conductor. Such an incident occurred here Thursday. says the Ansonia Sentinel The lady came out from New Haven and was transferred here to the Naugatnck di- vision. She was accompanied by a hand some dog which locked much like the dog owned by Colonel Wood. of Derby, and she took her dog into the baggage car and insisted that she be allowed to ride there with it.
 The baggagemaster informed her that it was against the rules and she appealed to the conductor. He sustained the baggage master. When the train left the station she was still in the baggage car and the look of determination she wore showed that the conductor would have to be pretty firm before he could persuade her to leave the car. He told her the baggageMaster would take good care of the dog, but she seemed to doubt it.
