EXPECT BIG SHAD CATCH.
Last Years Successful Season-Buv-
 CTS Offering Good Prices.

Essex. March 6.-From present indi- cations in Essex and nearby towns on the river the shad industry is to be conducted on an exceedingly large scale this spring. The catch last year and the size of the fish warrant the expectation of the appearance of the fish in large quantities this season. There. has been talk for some time of putting the old abandoned fish places in order again. but it is doubtful ii 1t will be done this season. owing to the immense outlay. The fish houses are nearly all gone and fish places nearly level with the river banks.
 Last year the only fishing that was done was with tue gill nets. but not over twelve nets were at work from Saybrook bar to Brockway's Island. The enormous catch by them, however, and the size of the shad returned to the fishermen q large revenue. So many years had elapsed since Connec- ticut river shad were. in New York markets that fish buyers hesitated to buy them but as the season advanced the demand for Connecticut shad ex- ceeded the supply. This year the buy CTS have already been offering good prices for all they can engage. Credit was given to the hatchery for the large run last season. as the shad were more of a Savannah river shape. short and very thick on the back. the first caught being fully as fat as those caught last of May. It Is said that this year there will be about thirty gill net fishermen between Saybrook bar and Brockway's Island. Many new boats and nets have been constructed the past winter l preparatory to the fishing.

RAClNG IT yE MELVILLE.
Special Constable Tyrrell Held Up
 Three Teams the Other Evening.

A race between three teams occu- pied by half dozen intoxicated men and women was stopped in Waterville the other evening by Special Constable TyTelfS revolver. The officer IS do- ing good work in this community and is respected and well liked by all. He occasionally runs across questionable characters and the instance here men, tioned was one of the latter. A strip of macadan, one of the monuments of Former Selectman Morris, extends from the bridge to below the plant of the Berbecker Manufacturing com pany. This is favorite racing ground for bicyclists and teamsters and the average driver once he gets on this part of the road is loath to ''let his horse out" On the evening referred to three teams with their occupants proclaiming their inebriated condition with lusty voices, arranged to race to the trolley terminus, stretch of about quarter of q mile. The noise the men and women made attracted Constable Tyrrell to the scene. He informed them it was against public peace to run a race through the vil- lage. The noisy roisterers bade him begone, for they did not know to whom they were talking. A lively dispute Followed, and the constable seized the middle horse by the reins. The driv- CT of this team, thinking the constable was without authority to interfere with his anticipated fun, raised his whip to strike him. Then the consta- ble exposed his badge of authority, but this, instead of promoting peace, seemed to irritate the driver He lashed his horse and matters were growing serious. The intoxicated man and his lady friend, as we'll as the men and women in the other teams got out and surrounded the officer, and by their actions and words told him it was time to look out for himself. He took the hint. and in q second 32-calibre. siN-chamber revolver ready for business, confronted them. This had the natural effect and it was in- stantaneouS, too. The driver of the horse which the constable had seized by the reins turned his steed toward Waterbury and drove away. Fifteen minutes after the constable allowed one of the other teams and it's occu- pants to depart in the same direction and then, bidding the other couple to remember that racing was not al- lowed in Waterville, the constable went his rounds.

A MODERN NIAIROD,
His Sympathies Are as Wide as the
 Earth is Broad.

'The charm of Seton-Thompson's art is in its simplicity, it's novelty and the flavor of the forest which he i'm parts to all of his descriptive work. Whether he is analyzing the tracks of the hare, initiating the challenge to battle of the bull elk, or repeating the mocking bark of the pin gopher, he is all the time carrying his audience far ther back from the foothills into the Rockies and getting them nearer 10 the true life of Nimrod.
 During his long study of wild ami nal life Seton Thompson has learned to initiate closely the language of the larger as we'll as the smaller wild ami malS, and translate their meaning with singular accuracy. From time to time during the evening he had electrified his auditors with this language of the deniZens of the forest and mountain and valley, but at the close of the lee ture he gave an example of his art which was almost uncanny: it was the gray wolf call which has been referred to and which at least one in his audi ence recognized with chill of rem- iniscence, so perfect was the imita- ton.
 And thus with the howl of the gray wolf on the ear. with pictures which carried one wonderfully close to free animal life and with impressions which tended to soften the savage in stinct which seems 10 be an fnheri tance from remote ancestors. the audi ence slowly and reluctantly dispersed.

'FLIP" M'GILVRAY DEAD.
A We'll Known Elk and Brother of the State Deputy, Dies Suddenly.

eAAS Neoe~ 0SPoeSs ADASS Aouu4CAAy.
 New Haven, March 6.-John MacGiI- vray, the former proprietor of the "Old Green Club,' cafe at 21 Or ange street, died suddenly there yes terday morning. The place has been closed for several days, the license having been taken up for the cafe, but MacGilvray and another man occu- pied the house. The former was up and about the house Monday night and yesterday morning at o'clock said he was not feeling we'll. He was served with drink while he lay in bed and fifteen minutes later he died.
 Deputy Sheriff Goodhart went to the house about the hour of the mans death with summary writ to evict the tenant from the building but when he arrived there he found Mac Gilvray dead. Medical Examiner Bartlett went to the house and made an examination. Heart disease was the cause of the mans death.
 MacGilvray was 47 years of age and was unmarried He was we'll known in this city and was q mem Der of the Elks. At one time he was treasurer of that organization. He was a glass beveller by trade and for a number of years prior to engaging in the last business he was in had worked for c. Cowles < co.
 While he believed that the mans death was due to natural causes, the medical examiner reported the case to Deputy Coroner Pond, who is mak- ing an investigation.
 Deceased was a brother of Charles $. MacGi1yray, the newsdealer. and of Ferdinand MacGilvray. He also leaves two sisters residing in this city.

Action of the Aldermen Regarding
 Round Hill Street Matter.

OOuuu x11ll StIect -MAlleI.
 There seems to be considerable doubt as to whether the action taken by the aldermen Monday night regard ing the Round Hill street matter is le- gal All the hearings have been held, the award of benefits and damages confirmed and adopted by the board of aldermen. approved by the mayor and published in the papers and, to make things worse, the contract for doing the work awarded. It is question if the aldermen can step in at this stage of the game and by simply resembling their former action in the premises, undo what has been done without in- volving complications which are sure to result in trouble for the city and others. No one was assessed much for the work, anyway. so that it was not thought that there would be any kick coming from the abutting prop erty owners, with the possible ex- cept1on of MT Camp, whose agent op- posed the project from the start and made no bones of the statement that 1n case the street should be laid out as planned he would take the matter into the courts, and he kept his word
 but lawsuit was avoided by the city ana the Camps coming to an under standing without q legal battle. No one pretends to say whether the award of benefits and damages was too high or 100 low, the question being as to the right of the aldermen to re-com- init the whole matter to the bureau of assessment after it was once settled the contract for doing the job award eu ana operations practically begun
 It seems 10 be generally believed that the proper course for the aggrieved is to apply to the courts

JAPANESE ASKING
FOR A NEW RATING
Collector Stackable Upheld Upon

Pearl Harbor Case Argued.

The first action of its kind was in

September 8, as to the rate and amount
of duties chargeable on certain mer-
chandise imported by H. Hamano to
Honolulu on the City of Picking, from
Japan, on the 10th day of October,
1900
The merchandise in question was
Japanese slippers, which Collector
Stackable classified as dutiable as
manufactures of leather at the rate
of 50 per cent ad valorem. From this
decision the plaintiff in the above case
and S Kojima appealed 20 the United
States Board of Appraisers, which not
only sustained Collector Stackable. but
held that las there is no leather in
the articIes-rawhide not being leather
it seems that neither of said provi-
sions include these slippers and the
particular articles covered by said pro-
test are properly dutiable under para
graph 1873, at the rate of 40 per cent ad
valorem as the articles or wares not
specially provided for, comprised who'll
ly or in part of iron.
No analysis has been made of the
slippers covered by the other profess,
but the same rule would apply unless
silk, cotton or straw should be the
component of chief value, in which
case they would be dutiable as silk
) wearing apparel, cotton wearing appa-
rel or manufactures of straw
