Ella Antoinette Ho,chkiss.

On Tuesday night at 10 o'clock Ella Antoinette Hotchkiss, of Westville
 entered into rest. Her mother, An toinette Hotchkiss, widow of Elizur M. Hotchkiss, died March 20, and the daughter, worn out with anxiety and watching, was unable to rally from the shock of her mothers death. Miss Hotchkiss was a woman of fine mind and not little literary talent. She was frequent contributor to maga- zines and newspapers. Her writings were marked by deep feeling, high moral tone and felicity of expression, and some of her poems attracted much attention. She was an omnivdrous reader of the best literature, and though partially an invalid for many years, she did much In the way of read ing, studying and writing. She was deeply religious and interested in all moral and religious movements She maintained cheerful spirit in spite of her illnesses and feebleness, and was friendly and helpful wherever and whenever she could be. After much suffering she came to a peaceful end, her last words being, Good night, good night; I am going to sleep" Her sister Florence, who was unremitting in her devotion to her sister and her mother, and who has been thus doubly bereft in so short time, has the heart felt sympathy of all who have known the old and estimable family of which she is the last surviving member.

Lecture by Professor Richard Burton,
 Ph. D.,
 Professor Richard Burton. Ph D., gave his second lecture in his course on English, Written and Spoken" be- fore the University Extension center last evening on the subject of Style" He gave as the general characteristics of style, clearness, force and elegance. More than all these, style is dependant on the personality of the writer. He cited, as evidence of the various kinds of style, quotations from Chancer, Shakespeare, Addison Carlyle and oth- CTS. The fourteenth century writers are strongest in force and elegance comes last The writers of the fifteenth century posses poetic force and ele- gance, but are lacking in clearness. The style of the Elizabethan period is the best, though the style of no one period or of no one man can be &C., cepted as model for all other periods. Addison is justly admired for his ele- gant style. yet it is lacking in force. Carlyle is often spoken of as having no style. Ruskin is said to have "a cloth of gold style" and the same may be said of Robert Louis Stevenson, but they are distinctly inferior to Carlyle in force. Newman should be classed with these, although he is their infe- rior in the matter of force. Browning is often more difficult to understand but his force makes him triumph. He does not have clearnesS.

TRUSTWORTHY WORK.
Being Done By Band of Sixty Five
 Little Girls.

belHS boHe by a Banu oL olAlS -f ANe Little Girls.
 An organization composed of sixty five girls who are for the most part members of the Howard avenue M. D. church are doing work which is very creditable and worthy of much praise. Through their efforts and labors enough money has been raised to purchase a bell for the church and about $50 in money paid into the church fund.
 In January, 1895, the organization was formed by Mrs. Rodella Sperry, and she has had full charge and has been un- tiring in her efforts to make it a suc- | cess ever since. It was at first com posed of five little girls and the first | collection taken was eleven cents. Since | then the little band has prospered and | grown until it now numbers sixty-five | girls, whose ages range from five to l fourteen years.
 | They meet every Wednesday after noon from to in the Sunday school rooms of the church and spend the time | in sewing, embroidering, crocheting, knitting, working buttonholes, etc. | They have thus far pieced and finished six bed quilts and made many fancy articles, by the sale of which the money has been realized. The bell, the pur- chase of which was the main object of their organization, was presented to the church on last Easter day. It cost $250. At the time appropriate services were held in the church on Easter af- | ternoon.
 It is the intention to commemorate the event in an appropriate manner by a service in the church on Easter night, commencing at 7:30. It will be opened by a processional hymn, Christ the Lord is Risen To-day" sung by the lit- tie girls and by the members of the Boys brigade of the church. As they pass up the right and left aisles re- spectively.
 They will be assisted in the singing by the choir of the church. The affair will be an elaborate one and about $50 will be spent for decorations alone Some special music will be rendered by the church choir and Homer Dennis will sing several selections. One of the little girls Florence Shephard, will re- cite an original poem, telling the story of the bell.
 Mrs. Sperry has written a short his tory of the bell and the little organiza-
 tion which is now being printed an6 will be sold by the girls to help in
 craase their fund. On the title page
 will be a hand painted picture of the
 church. The girls will next devote
 their efforts toward fund to be uset
 in painting the church building.

Superior Court-- Criminal side--JudGe
 ShumwRy.


 stephen Yarpozhain, an Armenian about forty-tve years of age was found guilty of criminal assault on his five year old daughter Christina, by a Jury in the criminal side of the super ior court yesterday afternoon, and was sentenced to fifteen years in state pris- on. Yarpozhian has been in this ooun- try a little more than a year and has been the recipient of charity from kind ly disposed persons whose sympathy he aroused by tales of the alleged cruelties inflicted upon him and his family by the Turks. He told various ministers about the city that his wife had been murdered In Armenia by the Turks, but other Armenians in New Haven who knew the family in the old country say that the wife died from a sickness. Yarpozhian is we'll educated man and has secured from several ministers and other well known people recommendations which enabled him to obtain charity. When he was arrested S1SS in money was found on his person and he claimed that this was all the money he lad. When his room was searched by detectives about $1,500 in gold was found saved in a belt in a trunk.
 It has been learned since his arrest that the other Armenians in New Ha- ven looked upon Yarpozhian with sus- picion and suspected that he was a Turkish spy on Armenians in this coun- try.
 His five-year-old daughter was living in a charitable institution in New Ha- ven, and one Saturday about four weeks ago he went to the institution and asked that the child be allowed to visit him over Sunday. It was when the child returned to the institution

THE SURETY COMPANY LAWS.

A case which is of considerable in- terest to the bar of this county has just been appealed to the supreme court, to be held this month at Bridge port.
 Last June Joscelyn F. Lovejoy and Samuel c. Lovejoy of New York city brought an action of fraud i'll the su- perior court, through Attorney John Albert Matthewman, against George A. Isbell of this city. The bond for prosecution was given by the Ameri- can Surety company.
 Because of this bond the defendant, through Attorneys Arvine and Beers, put in plea in abatement, taking the position that, as the plaintiffs were non residents, a bond should have been given by some substantial inhabitant of this state before the writ was sign- ed. They also claimed that even if a surety company could give such bond it certainly could not act as principal, as it was alleged to have done in this case.
 To this plea in abatement the plain tiffs demurred on the ground that the
  mitted such a company to give a bond for prosecution in the case of non- resident plaintiff They denied that in this case the American Surety compa- ny acted as principal upon the bond. Judge Roraback overruled this de- murrer, but neglected to file a memo randum of his decision. When his at tention was called to this he reopened | the case de novo. He still held, how ever, to his original ruling on the de- | murrer and stated in a lengthy memo randum that the surety company laws were not broad enough to allow such a bond.
 The plaintiffs then put in an answer | to the plea in abatement denying the statement that the American Surety company was not a substantial inhabi- | tant of Connecticut, it being incorpor- ated in New York state.
 Judge Wheeler refused to allow this l issue to be tried to the jury. When l the plea in abatement was tried the l plaintiffs offered in evidence three cer- | titled copies from the insurance com l missioner, showing that the American | Surety company had appointed him | their agent to accept service of pro- cess; that they had deposited sufficient security and that they had been grant | ed a license to give bonds in this state | The defendant refused to offer any ev. | idence, claiming that it was unneces. sary, as a New York corporation evi- l dently could not be a substantial in- | habitant of Connecticut.
 l Judge Wheeler has just rendered 1 judgment for the defendant, but, as ar l indication of the way one judge vii support another, even perhaps against his own convictions, it is significant | that he files this memorandum: Be l cause feel bound by it, follow the | ruling of Judge Roraback on the de murrer to this plea and render judg. ] ment for the defendent."
 1 The plaintiffs will now take the case | to the next term of the supreme court | They claim errors in the superior cour
 in regard to the everything of the de
 murrer, the refusal to allow the cast
 to be tried by jury and judgment fol
 the defendant on the plea in abate | ment.
