arrived none of the parties or their
counsel appeared and inquiry devel-
oped the fact that they We're closeted
in an outside room. At 2.15 the at
torneys came in and reported that
they had agreed to ask for a contin-
uance till the next term. Thespetition
was granted.
Both cases will very likely be set

Mrs. Ames, it is said, have agreed to
resume their marital relations and
propose to make their home in Wilkes
Barre.
The case of the commonwealth
against Jennie Duffy, charged by
County Detective Leyshon with SELL
ing liquor without n license, was to
have been tried yesterday afternoon
but the defendant failed to put in an
appearance. Her bail, in the sum Of
$500, with Martin Clark as surety, was
declared forfeited by Judge Edwards,
and q. capias issued for her arrest.
The capias was given in charge of
deputy sheriff, and off he started to
secure the defaulting defendant, while
the court, jury, attorneys, witnesses
and spectators tilted back their chairs
and waited. The city directory shows
that she lives on Bridge street, only
about six blocks away, but two hours
passed by without any report from the
deputy. There being no other cases
open, court could do nothing but wait,
and not a little impatience was evil
dent in the judges demeanor as he
watched the hands of the clock go
round and the expenses Of the county
pile up.

DOUBLE TRACKS IN EAST HAVEN

Selectmen Grant Permission to the Fair
Haven and Westvllle Railroad.
The selectmen of East Haven at a
town meeting Last night reported on
their work of looking over the main
road in the town for the purpose Of see
ing whether or not there was ample
room for the Misunderstanding of the road
by the Fair Haven and Westville rail-
road The Fair Haven road made a
ven not long ago in which an increase
in the schedule was promised If the
town would allow the road to lay dou-
BILE tracks through the main street from
Granniss' Corner to the place where the
tracks go across the meadows on the
road to the Momauguin.
The selectmen reported that 1T was
possible to double-track the road from
the points named, although there would
have to be some grading and cutting
away Of banks and trees
The selectmen named the places
where this would be necessary and said
that the road could go ahead and be-
gin the work whenever 1t wanted to.
The suggestions regarding the trimming
of the street will be complied with by
the railroad company and 1t Is expected
that the work of Misunderstanding Will
begin very shortly The extra expense
of putting the street in good condition
for the work will be paid by the rail-
road company
The meeting was very largely attend
ed and there was considerable interest
in the report Of the committee. Moth"
ing else of Importance was done at the
meeting. which adjourned about $3.50
o'clock.

ishment be done according to scrip
ture.
Hon. Charles P. Kellogg, secretary Of
the state board of charities, said; The
recommendation for the whipping OF
certain offenders | very heartily en-
dorse Such punishment would result
in many who now become public
charges being reformed, or deferred
from committing crime. Under our
present system of fixed sentence we
have the FOUNDERS who are sentenced
for term after term. The reason for
imprisoning men is for punishment, or
reform. Fixed sentences do not reform
the man | want to enter plea for
lndeterminate sentence. The principle
Is used in limited way in eight or ten
states. The bill proposed in Connect
cut is for a purely indeterminate ses-
sion, and I hope that Connecticut Will
be the first state to adopt 1t, There Is
opportunity for the greatest work in
the county jails. The boys school at
Meriden has been criticised, and | be-
lieve rightly. We must depend upon
public sentiment to help us. The fail
ure there is largely because II has be-
come too firmly imbedded in local con-
troll. Most of the trustees come from
Meriden. There should be a greater
variety of industries. A reformatory in
this states is needed not so much for
men as for women. The jails should
all be under the direction of one state
commission, and then there would be
opportunity for classification of the
prisoners.
Judge James Beecher, who was to be
the last speaker, was absent, owing to
Illness. The subject was then discussed
by several members of the club.

make from this complete book play

Of the novel; as it is impossible to de-
scribe in action and dialogue all the in
Vulnerable happenings of the various
threads Of stories In the booR. Mr..
Mitchell has made a play of Becky

hard, and a terrific blaze shot up into
the air. Lynch, thinking that his
nephew was in the fire and blinded by
the blaze, dashed into the midst of 1t
and CROPPED around for the child. In
doing so he received terrible burns
about the face arms and chest. His
