"A curious Law Ehat seems to FOLLOW some
Persons, Believed To Be Divertablc.
1t has frequently been observed that
when married couple arrive at the
point where they have furnished a nice
home and after some years of work and
economy are just ready to enjoy life,
one or perhaps both find that disease
of some sort has made its appearance
and sadly marred the happy picture.
A little care in the selection of food
during the time one is well and strong
will prevent the encroachment of dis
ease, whereas continuance in the use
of improper food and drink is sure to
build in disease sooner or later, and by
some curious law the demon shows
himself just when we are on the point
of accomplishing some long cherished
plan.
But poor Judgment for disease can be
found in the properly fed and nour-
ished man OR woman.
Coffee is an insdious foe to some
systems while it does not seem to hurt

In cases where palpitation or I'M

user by abandoning coffee ten days to

RADCLIFFE HELD FOR PERJURY.

New York, Jan. 24.-Edward ]. Rat
cliffe, the actor, was held to-day in 81
coo bail to-day on the charge of per-
jury. The alleged perjury consists in
his swearing during his recent trial for
assaulting his wife, the daughter of
Peter DeLacey, that he had never been
married before. To-day the Ravenhill
woman, who alleges that Radcliffe mar
ried her in England in 1888, produced
the original of the marriage certificate,
which is alleged to prove the actors
perjury and bigamy. A warrant against
Radcliffe has been issued in New Jersey
for bigamy.

rous of Water Company Appeared
Before Board of Relief
Yesterday morning George D. Wat
rous and President Eli Whitney of the
New Haven Water company appeared
before the board of relief to press the
appeal of the company from the raising
of the assessment from 100000 to $780,
000 President Whitney made the fol-
lowing statement to the board: Each
year we have added the work done dur
ing the year up to October l and two
thirds of the cost of the work is added
to our list We have increased our list
the past year over $4,000 Estimating
the cost of our property in the whole
city al SECS, 903. sc, and two-thirds Of that
would be $685., 243. 10; our Westville
property, $21,S23.3S; our Annex proper
ty, $50, 1902 So; total, s379269 Our list
put in was S465, 900 We put in $126,5l3
more than we ought to, but We'll stand
by it. Then the assessors added $780,
900 to it and to this addition we OBJ
ject.''
Mr.. Whitney explained that they had
included the laying of a new main to
Fair Haven as replaced work. The old
pipe answered their purpose, he said,
but they, with the gas company, put
new pipes under the river and had to
buy property on Front street in which
the new line ran.
Mr.. Bill Of the board asked what the
price paid for the Front street lot was
and Mr. Whitney replied that it was
over $4,000. I'VE had to have it," he
said. "The gas company paid half. 1t
belonged to Policeman Bradley who
sold it to a blacksmith named Laden.
Since 1882 we have been taxed for the
Annex reservoir and that is included in
the $685. 900 we put in. We have laid

Mr. Watrous said that the capital
stock was 100000 and that it sold
| above par. The company had expended
| 81, 000, 600 and called the capital con-
| struction account. Three-fourths of the
| property was out of town. was out of
| town property assessed on a basis of
statements made by the Water COM

Orange, $520,210; Branford, 1852; East

Mr.. Whitney said: 1--WE have no in
ventory of property, just a construc-
ton account. We have spent s., 000, 900.
We are not taxed on our capital stock,
we are taxed on our property. We
don't object to paying a just tax The
| Hamden assessors have said, we see
that New Haven has raised you $780,
900. Why can't we put you up, too?"
The board took no action in the matter.

"THE LADDER OF LIFE. u


''The Ladder of Life" which was pro-
duced last night before big house, is
full of exciting situations and also plen-
ty of genuine, pure comedy. The two
are so evenly balanced that almost be-
fore the audience is through with the
merriment rounds of applause come all
most ON top for the strong slimaxes.
The scenes are laid in New York and
Juneau, in Alaska, and then back to
New York. The first act ends with a
murder in a brokers' office; second act
Central depot, third act, in a typical
saloon in Juneau, then Juneau bay, and
the act closes with the most picturesque
and sensational scene-the deck of the
Golden Hope, the rigging, bulwarks,
etc, being covered with ice and snow
The villain of the play sets fire to the
ship, ties the heroine to the mast, the
hero arrives, and then ensueS one of the
greatest fights ever witnessed on the
stage. The curtain calls after this tab
leau were several and showed the pitch
of excitement and enthusiasm the audi
ence had been worked up to. The seen
cry painted by Gates & Morange of
New York, was beautiful The cast
was made up of several well known
people, and some Of them favorites with
our local audiences. George Raxton,
who heads the cast as the hero, Jack
Ellsworth, was excellent. His appear
ance, grace and ease of manner, cou-
pied with good voice, won for him
fresh honors. Messrs. Daily and James
as the villains played their parts with
such fidelity to nature that the gallery
vented it's spite by boots and catcalls.
The comedy element was well taken
care of by Thomas d. Mules and Martin
| Fuller. Mss Everett as the heroine,
Lillian, has a charming presence and
| made a capital boy. Miss Gongalez
| was in her element as the tough girl,
and her specialties won repeated en-
| cores

'"FHE SECRET ENEMY"

Kellenberger. II will show you how

the lieutenant with the assistance OF
an orderly saddled the mistreated mule
in front of his tent. The mule offered
neither resistance nor protest. The
liutenant patted him on the neck. HE

he. Just then the mistreated mule
