COURT CALENDAR.
Miss Gillette's Case in Superior
Court Continued to March 90.
Settlement Reached in North erookfIeld
Bastardy Case--N, H. Godue Held
for Superior Court.

The long-anticipated hearing for the
admission for Miss Addie Frances Gil
lette of Fitchburg for admission to the
bar came up before Judge Gaskill in the
superior civil court Wednesday morning
by adjournment from Monday. With
characteristic promptness Judge Gaskin
was in court over a quarter of an hour
before the time announced for the adj
mission of Miss Gillette, 10 o'clock; and
at 945 court formally opened for the
day. There was large attendance of
lawyers, but a majority came in after
the proceedings were over, not thinking
that the admission was scheduled for 10
o'clock
Judge Charles S. Hayden, who had APP
peared for Miss Gillette, came down
from Fitchburg on an early train with
Charles e. Ware, who appeared for the
remonstrants Miss Gillette did not APP
pear in the court room, but waited in the
ladies room with Mrs. Martin, who ac-
companied her, until the case came up
for action. Col Theodore S. johnson
read the notice of Miss Gillette's appli
cation for admission, in pursuance to the
order of the court. Mr. Ware then arose,
reviewing the case, and said that he had
filed notice of objection. He proceeded
to read the record of her recommends
ton. Mr.. Ware then stated that he had
been informed that the court, with
Judge Bond presiding, had required at
the December sitting that the county
board of bar examiners should file
supplemental report as to the moral
character of the petitioner, requiring
that additional specific certificates Of
be furnished.
Worcester morning daily spy. (Worcester, Mass.) 1888-1898, 1898-03-17

Until that report had been filed, he
had no statements to make in the case
Col johnson then arose to state to
the court that there had been con-
ference between the board of eXamln-
ers and Judge Bond concerning the mat
ter, but that there was no record of it
or no official order issued by the court.
Mr.. Ware then stated that he had assur-
ance from Judge Bond that he should
require further evidence of the moral
fitness of the petitioner. Mr.. Ware said
he had the additional evidence to offer,
but did not feel that it could be present
ed until the order of the court had
been fulfilled; and that until this was
done, he did not suppose that the court
would care to hear the case. District
Attorney Parker addressed the court
upon his knowledge of the facts
Of the case saying that Judge
Bond had made such a suggestion as
Mr.. Ware had referred to before the first
notice Of Miss Gillette's admission had
been posted, and had held private con-
versation with Judge Bond. Mr. Par
ker said that he was not aware of any
specific allegations, and that Judge
Bonds view was that voluntary GER
tificate would be satisfactory and final
with him.
At the conclusion Of Mr. Parker's re-
marks, Judge Gaskill said that he did
not feel, in view of what the district at
torney had stated, that he could con-
tinue the case and delay the matter, and
asked Mr. Ware how long the hearing
on the objections of the remonstrants
would probably be. Mr.. Ware then sta
ted to the court that he had not antici-
pated the proceedings as revealed today;
and, though he had evidence, he was not
prepared to present it at the morning
session, as he believed that no witnesses
would be needed, in view of the request
which he thought Judge Bond made for
an additional report Judge Hayden
said that if a hearing were to be held,

MRS. KATE MOORE SCHOFlELD.
rhe Flrst ExhIbIt Of the Season.

The announcement of Mrs. Kate Moore
Schofeld's annual spring opening was suf-
ficient reason for the thronging of her
millinery parlors the first days of the open
ing. In the large display windows are
very attractively arranged clusters and
wreaths of the principal flowers which Will
be used for millinery this season. A very
pretty effect in one window IS a natural
roses of the most delicate tint. Inside the
store is a veritable bower Of flowers of all
kinds, which made one of the finest dis
plays seen by the Spy representative.
Flowers this season are to be used in
abundance Although there are a great
many domestic, the Partisan varieties pre-
dominate. Pink and jacqueminot roses
will be the most used in decorating, while
Hlacs, pansies, primroseS, hyacinths, fuch-
las and nasturtiums will be worn a great
deal. Japanese fern is a new novelty for
trimming the crowns OF hats. Especially
notable are the large double white Russian
violets.
The hats are to be large. small and me-
dunn. Straw braids on frames are to be
used as much as last season. Neapolitan
trimming, hats will be loaded with flowers,
with large Alsatian bow directly In the
centre of the back. Dotted netting is also
used, being drawn over the whole hat,
high in the back and graduated towards
the front where 1t is fastened with a bow
and buckle. The small hats are tipped on
the side, and have d good deal of trimming.
A very pretty conceit was a small brown
walking hat, with a cluster of violets on
either side and a large bow and buckle in
'front.' Chiffons will be prominent In trim
ming, and SHRED liberty silk are very
fashionable. Among the ribbons Roman
striped and point de sole Will be the most
popular.
Mrs. Schofield and her corps of assist
ants are kept very busy, attending upon
the wants Of her many callers. Today will
end the opening. 80

CITY HALL NOTES.
Fire Department Committee Recon-
mends New Fire Alarm System
Notes.

At a conference of Mayor Dodge, Al
derman Brannon, chairman of the fire
department committee, City Electrician
Mcclure and a representative of the
Gamwell Fire Alarm Telegraph Com
pany Wednesday noon, it was decided to
recommend to the city council that the
Gamwell system Of fire alarm telegraph
be installed in the new fire department
headquarters. The system, a new in
vention, is known as the Central office"
system, and is great advancement
over the old idea Any number of
alarms may be rung in at the same time
without mixing things up. and complex
signalling to the various houses can be
done. This is made possible from the
fact that all the alarms come in at a
central office and are received by an op-
orator who can send them to such
houses as he desires, with or without
striking the alarms which notify the
public. The system has been fully de-
scribed in the Spy
The company will take the old system
in part payment for the new one. The
price is not given out, but it is said to
be satisfactory
MISSING MAN FOUND.
Lewis Ladoux, AN inmate of the Home
Farm, who had been missing since sat
urday was found by Supt. Graves in
front Of the old city hall Wednesday
afternoon and taken back to the farm.
Ladoux is peculiar and often acts
queerly. Some time ago he made himself
obnoxious by addressing the girls en-
ployed at the telephone exchange, and
as result was arrested. An eXamina-
ton showed that he was not mentally all
right and there was talk of sending him
to the asylum, when City Almoner
Brown stepped in and offered to look
after him. He has always had a fondness
for the city hall sidewalk, and his
actions while hanging about have at
tracted much attention. He had times
when he would walk twenty-five or
thirty feet, stop, stamp his feet and
jabber away to himself for a minute,
and then go over the thing again. He
was engaged in that amusement when
found Wednesday. He is harmless and a
valued workman at the farm. Saturday
he took his coat and left without leave,
saying he had had enough of the place.
BIRTHS FOR 1897.
There were 1920 births in the city last
year according to the records kept at

it's people, and that the power of con-
gress to complete the annexation of
such foreign state, depends alone upon
the sovereign will and consent of such
state, given and expressed through its
organized tribunals.
This important, clear and far-reach-
ing precedent established in the annex
alton of the republic of Texas is suf-
ficient guide for the action of congress
in the passage of the JOINT resolution
herewith reported. If, in the judgment
of congress, such a measure is support
ed by safe and wise policy, or is based
upon a national duty that we owe to
the people Of Hawaii or is necessary
for our national development and secu-
rty, that is enough to justify anneXa-
ton, with the consent of the recognized
government of the country to be an
nexed."
The report then discusses at length
the arguments in favor of annexation,
declaring that "the policy of annexation
as it applies to Hawaii has been clear
since our earliest diplomatic relations
with the government From the be-
ginning down to this date, the idea and
expectation has been constantly enter
tanned by the people and governments
of both countries that, whenever the
conditions should be such as to make
annexation of mutual advantage, it
should be consummated. On the part
of Hawaii, this purpose has been sus-
tanned by two facts; F'irst-That no
ruler of Hawaii, since the time of KAN
ehameha l. has believed that these isl
ands couldmaintain an autonomous form
of government without the interest
and support of some great maritime ma
ton. Second-that the rulers Of Hawaii
on each occasion when the islands have
been threatened with foreign interior
ence or domestic violence, have at once
appealed to some foreign power for
help.
The report continues: 1--WE owe it to
these people that they should not again
be brought into subsection to mon
archy that has lapsed because Of it's cor
ruptions and its faithless reputation of
solemn oaths. In this obligation our
government is also deeply concerned for
the maintenance and enjoyment of our
treaty rights in Hawaii"
The report asserts that the grounds of
objection to annexation are very slight
compared with the benefits to be de-
rived.

he would like to have it as soon as pos
sible. If Mr.. Ware were acting in good
faith, hearing SHOULD be set atsonce,
and he should be required TO present his
evidence in objection.
After some questions, Judge Gaskill
said that Saturday, the 26th, would be
the first opportunity for nearing the
case, unless the day of the opening Of
the jury-waived session were taken. At
ter the date had been definitely fixed
Mr.. Hayden requested that the objec-
lions be made in writing. announcing
his consent to have them filed with him.
and not necessarily filed for record in
the courts.
Judge Gaskill so ordered, although in
dicating that he might order the written
objections filed as record of the court
subsequently. The court stated that the
specifications should be general and not
go into detail Mr.. Ware said he APP
peared as an officer of the court, and be-
lieved he represented public sentiment,
and accordingly was prepared to file
statement. Mr. Ware was ordered to
deliver to Judge Hayden a copy of the
specifications prior to March 10, 1898.
The case was then formally continued
until the 26th inst
Judge Hayden felt considerably in
censed at the new move, although he
felt that he had gained decided point
in having the objections of the remon
strants filed in written form. Miss Gill
lette said in conversation that while she
was disappointed, she felt confident of
eventually securing admission. All par
ties interested left for FItchburg on the
noon train.
