PREFERS TO STAY IN JAIL.
Franklin Hall Likes the Fare at the
 New Haven Institution.

Tho eccentricities of tEa lawyer. H. Franklin Hall. wn, was recently re- leasssl from a santtaffum onsa writ of habeas corpus. and returned to the same institution by Judge Shumway, at a session of the superior court in Bridgeport, are more strikingly in evidence now than ever.
 At the time of the decision of Judge Shumway, Mir Hall. after some original and positive objections to the findings, did not leave the court house. in the custody of his keepers, before he gave Clerk Shelton of Bridgeport notice of an appeal. This was couched in legal left with the clerk by the plaintiff him. self. Yesterday was the last day in which to perfect Halls appeal, but the papers have not reached the clerk.
 It Is now apparent that Mir Hall has abandoned all idea of pushing the ap- peal, and instead has aimed to secure q removal from the sanitarium to some other place. In q lengthy letter direct ed to the judges of the superior court, dated April l, and recently placed in the hands of the clerk, Mir Hall states that he wants to be transferred to the New Haven jail and gives as reason for the change that his wife and fam fly are all living short distance from that institution. and that he could see them and provide for their wants.
 He further declares that they could write for him, and it is evident that he is still bent on having lot of wfits made out against certain of his sfela- lives and others for imaginary of lenses. He states in the letter that he has six farms that should be rented for the season, that he is informed that board at the Westport sanitarium costs him S25 week, which is too high: that he can live at the New Ha- ven jail for less money and wants to get there. that he may retrench and the benefit go to him family.
 There is no possibility of the appeal made being granted.

By tonight the road will be in such a condition that no one would ever know that there had been such q hole in the street.
 This village possesses among it's res idents several young men who are adopts in the pugilistic art. One of the opponents of the manly ant is known to his friends as 1.-The Pride of Waterville., It appears from recent events that the knowledge of his abil- ities is not confined within the limits of Waterville, either A few days ago we'll known sport of Waterbury paid a visit to this borough and attempted to arrange a fiStic contest between a protege of his and ''The Pride of Wa teryille" But no agreement could be reached and the match was not ar ranged. But instead the consultation between the representatives ofGeach man almost ended in an imprOmptu fight. Owing to the intervention of friends the fight was stopped before any damage was done to either par ticipant.
 Much interest has been centered i'll the hearing before the legislative com mittee in regard to the proposed con solidation of the town and city of Wa terbury. The interest was somewhat iabating before the hearing. but now it has become much more intensified. Of course. there are opponents ofsbotn sides of the question, some strongly in favor of it while others are as ye- hemently opposed to 1t.
 The funeral of James F. Scott. for meriy of this village, was largely at tended from late home on Marine street. Funeral services were con- ducted at the house. The funeral ser vice of the Foresters was read at the house and also at the grave by Past Chief Ranger John Humphries of Court Welch A large number of per sons from this place were in attend ance.

A. o. U.w. LODGES.
May Join in the Movement for Inde-
 pendence.

nhy iJOln m Jne Movement TOE lnae-
 pendence.
 There is a movement on foot among the A. O. U. ". lodges of this city, says the New Haven Union. which may eventually result in the estab- lishment of the Connecticut lodges under grand lodge of their own. The local lodges are at present included in the Jurisdiction Of the Massachusetts branch of the order
 According to the laws of the A. O. U. w., district containing ten lodges may apply to be placed under sep arate jurisdiction, and as there are S1 in Connecticut, with total mem bership of over 5000. it is thought that the time has come for these lodges to become independent. Dur ing the twenty-three years which the order in this state has been under the grand lodge of Massachusetts, it has increased so rapidly that the work ings of this, the governing body, have become cumbersome, owing to the many additional delegates appointed. I The initial step towards achieving this end was taken by Momauguin lodge short time ago. This lodge has appointed q committee to endeayOr to bring about the proposed change, and its example has been followed by the Commonwealth, Phoenix and Putnam lodges. There are nine other branches of the order and it is said that they will take a similar action before long. In the meantime. the lodges at the head of the movement are working their way towards the coveted end.
 Circulars will be sent to every branch of the order in the state, urging that the question of an independent jurisdiction be thoroughly discussed by every member of the order and that committees be appointed to attend q convention for. still another discussion. If this convention shows that such an action is desired by large percentage of the order, a delegate will be ap- pointed by each lodge and these dele gates. as body. will take up the question with the. grand lodge of Mas sachusetts-
 A similar movement was made four years ago. but was dropped. as the majority of the members were not in favor of it. It is said that this feel ing has been swept aside in the last few years and that the time is now at hand for the establishment of a grand lodge in this state. The vast majority of the members are anxious to see the Connecticut orders under an independent head and while some op- position Is expected. 1t is believed that it will easily succHmb to the argu-- ments winch. the promoters of. the movement are prepared to give if

AID FOR WIDOWS OF SOLDIERS.
Withheld Because There is No Ap-
 propriation.

propriation.
 The Veteran association of the gen eral assembly, composed, of senators and representatives who served in the civil war, had an interesting subject under discussion at a meeting yester- day, at which Senator Gordon of En- field presided. e4
 Senator Bree of New Haven, ad- dressing the meeting, said that q law was passed in 1889 providing that when a veteran cared for at the Soldiers home in Noroton leaves a dependent family the town shall contribute for the support .$2 weekly for his wife and $2 for each child under. 16. The ob- Ject is to save veterans family from being committed to the town aims house. Some cases of this kind have arisen lately, but the1town authorities have been informed that the state comptroller could not give orders for the money, as there was no special ap- propriation for the purpose. It does ont appear that any appropriation has ever been made. The aid cannot be given by selectmen except on the au- thority of the soldiers hospital board.
 Senator Bree said that he introduced a resolution appropriating $5,000 for this object for the next two years, but the appropriations. committee had re- ported against 1t and offered a bill re-, pealing the law of 1889.
 Senator Gordon, chairman of the meeting, remarked that this matter did not appear to be one upon which the association could properly pass, as 1t is purely a social organization. He added that he had no doubt that the relief would be afforded in needed cases, and that, the hospital board would approve bills contracted by the selectmen so that the towns could re-. cover from the state. He questioned whether the legislation8 proposed by Senator Bree is necessary, as the pres ent appears to be sufficient.
