A Cool Head.

The following experience of man down in Derby shows that his presence of mind is something wonderful ss well as his manner of escape from injury ingenious.
 Martin Wilson sr employee Of the Housatonic Water Company, while out on the coping stones of the company s big dam across the Housatonic river at Derby where he was removing the flash boards, met with a peculiar ex- perience last week. Over foot of water was running over the dam and his work was perilous at best, but while in the center of the dam large field of ice swept down behind him. As it touched his leg Wilson saw his danger and sprsng onto the ice rolled over and over as 1t passed beneath him over the dam, finally rolling off the rear end into the shallow water above the copings. Had he been swept over with the cake he would have met instant death on the apron of the dam below.

Ministers Wife Arrested.

According to the New York Evening World of Dec. 9, Mrs Abbie O. Long was arrested in New York the day be- fore and proved guilty of shoplifting but the complaint was withdrawn by the department store people on press- ure of some of the woman's friends. Mrs Long said her husband is Rev Dr. Long. of the First Presbyterian Church at Wassaic, N. Y. but his salary is so small she went to New York to earn her own living. For some tims she has been the superintendent of the primary de- partment of the Sunday-school of the Church of the Puritans, One Hundred and Thirtieth street, near Sixth avenue. Her salary is $12 week and she boards at 156 West One Hundred and Twenty eight street. Mrs Long claimed to be somewhat unbalanced at the time of her visit to the store. .....

Deserves disappointment.

Since his appointment to succeed the late Judge Fenn, Judge Albert T. Rora- back of Canaan hss made record on the Superior court bench that he cannot be ashamed of, says the Torrington Regis ter. Most of his time has been spent in New Haven county and the papers down that way seemingly cannot say too much in praise of his industry and his intelli- gent ha ding of the cases that come be- fore him. The members of the bar are likewise apprecistive of his work and say SO whenever occasion offers. This is the type of judge that should be kept permanently on the bench. Governor Lounsbury will have chance to show his appreciation of faithful public ser want in Judge Rorsbsck's case and it can hardly be doubted that he will take pleasure in reappointing this efficient justice when the lstter's term of office expires.
 The New Haven Register of the 1lth inst. mentions in detail Judge Rora- backs industry. We quote from the Register paragraph or two as follows: When Judge Roraback adiourns the present civil term of the Superior court at the Christmas recess, he win have presided over term, which under his guidance, will become a red-letter ore in the history of the New Haven County Court. When he adjourned court at 6 o'clock Friday evening he had served for 42 days and during that time he dis posed of more business, both in the way of trials and short calendar hear ings, than any judge on the Superior court circuit to-day. And Judge Rora- back did his work not only expeditions ly but with entire satisfaction to the bar, thus making for himself record which he may we'll be proud of and which compliment the members of the bar feel proud to accord him.
 There were 40 separate matters to be disposed of on Friday, besides five di- vorce cases, and Judge Roraback sat continuously from 10 g. m. to 6p. n. with one hour out at noon, and before he left for home everything on the list had been disposed of.
