A Significant Move.

Mr.. Alexander Thomson, senior part
ner of Vital & Co., of Colombo, now
in New York city,. is there for the pur-
pose of establishing branch OF that
we'll known Colombo concern. This
step is taken in view of the steady in
crease in the trade in Ceylon tea in
this country and in the belief that a
branch in New York city which will
put dealers in close touch with the pri-
mary markets and obviate the necessity
of dealing Though the London market,
will be advantageous to all concerned
The advantage of such a move is great
err now that there has recently been
established a line of steamers trading
direct between Colombo, etc, and Unit
ed States ports. The firm Of Vital &
Co. is one of the largest of the kind in
the world, and in the year 1898 handled
tenth Of the enormous tea crop of
Ceylon.
The American branch will be under
the management of Mr.. Richard Bile
chynden, who for a number of years
was the representative in this country
of the tea planters of India, and to
whose intelligent efforts is due much of
the credit for the enormous increase in
the consumption of Ceylon tea here Mr..
Blechynden enters the new field with
the best wishes of host of friends

BULL AND HOG FIGHT.
A Savage Struggle in Which the Bull
Was Defeated.

A Savage Struggle in Which the Bull
Was Defeated.
K. N. Bill and John Sterling, ir., son
and grandson of James A. Bill OF
Lyme says the Hartford Times, wit
messed fierce fight last Saturday on
Mr.. Bills farm between large Devon
bull and thoroughbred Chester white
SOW.
The bull was sole occupant of pas
ture lot short distance from Mr..
Bills residence. Mr.. Bills son turned
the SOW into the same lot and the bull
promptly showed his disapproval. He
lowered his head and started to give
the sow battle. The SOW ran short
distance and then turned on the bull
and, quicker than a flash, buried her
tusks into the bulls neck. The bull
threw her off and renewed the attack,
making a mighty lunge with his horns
at the hog, but missed. The SOW seemed
to realize that it was a struggle for life
and again buried her tusks into the
neck'of the bull They Were both COW
cred with blood, which flowed from the
wounds in the bulls neck. The bull
finally succeeded in shaking the SOW
off. Then he abandoned the fight and
ran to the extreme end of the field,
leaving trail Of blood. The fight lasted
about ten minutes and was fierce from
start to finish. The bull is one of Mr..
Bills prize Devons and has won many
medals at agricultural fairs throughout
New England

THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY,
Law md Order League Gained Victory
I'm the House Yesterday


I'm the House Yesterday.
In the house yesterday the special or
der of the day, the debate on the sub
stitute bill reported by the committee
to restrict the powers Of the Law and
Order league, was taken up at 1880.
Mr.. Grannis of East Haven. house
chairman of the temperance committee,
explained the substitute bill, saying that
it had been substituted for bill which
provided for the repeating altogether of
the leagues charter.
Mr.. Light of Norwalk spoke against
the adoption Of the BILL saying that no
one favored the repeal of the leagues
charter or curtailment of it's powers
except those who desired to prevent the
enforcement of the laws of the state
Mr.. Bronson of Winchester also spoke
against the adoption of the bill.
Mr.. Grannis moved the previous ques-
ton and the motion was carried by a
vote of 101 to SO.
Mr.. Kennedy of Derby desired unan-
imous consent to offer an amendment
to the BILL but unanimous. consent was
refused and on rising vote the bill was
rejected, only about a dozen members
voting in favor of it. Mr.. Kennedy's
amendment was to the effect that the
leagues agents should not secure evil
dence of liquor law violation by pur-
chasing liquor themselves but that they
should get their evidence from the state
ments of others.
The house passed the bill requiring
that all bicycles in use shall be equip
ped with lanterns between sunrise and
sunset. Mr.. Bree OF New Haven at
tempted to have two amendments to the
bill adopted, one to provide that no re-
strictions be placed on the use Of bicy-
Giles in the state and the other that the
law for the use of lanterns should not
apply to New Haven. 1t is said that
the bill has been supported by lantern
manufacturers, who anticipate largely
increased sales if it is passed.
The bill to appropriate 100000 for
improvements at the state insane asy
lum at Middletown was reported favor
ably by the committee and was tabled
for the calendar
The resolution to permit the Fair Ha-
ven and Westvile raod to extend its
lines through streets now unoccupied
by car tracks was passed
In the senate the bill to create a board
of commissioners of inn-keepers was
passed
The committee on interpretations has
not yet reported upon the bill concern
ing the use of highways by telephone
companies, which was referred back,
but it is said that it has been changed
to provide that a telephone company,
after organizing under the joint stock
laws of the state. must show to judge
of the superior court that the line is a
public necessity before it begins to OPP
crate it's line.
