Benedict Lyons of Thomaston was the guest of Dr Russell today.
 Joseph De Barlue, clerk at De Bar bieri's fruit store on Bank street, is visiting friends in Brooklyn, N.. Y.
 The Misses Mamie and Sadie Frawley of Ansonia are the guests of MT and Mrs Christopher Dunphy of Bank street.

 Edward Dwyer and Robert Scott of Thomaston spent yesterday with friends in this section. They were on their way home from weeks visit with friends in Webster, Mass.
 -Four young fellows in a team at- tracted considerable attention in this section yesterday. They drove down west Porter street at rather rapid gait, beating the horse severely. They attempted to turn the corner at Porter and Leonard streets with the horse going Ut full gallop. The carriage overturned and all the four youths were given free ride through the air. One of the young men was severely in- Jured. He was taken into the home Of Alderman-elect Stephen O'Brien, where his injuries were attended to. He refused to give his name. His home is on Union street and he was taken there. The horse freed himself from the carriage when 1t was over turned, but was captured on Washing ton avenue.

Blakeslee and MT Chesson agreed with Commissioner Whiting, and the ques- tion was put and carried, MT Chesson remarking at the same time that he considered the commissioner entitled to that recognition not only on account of his treatment of the members while in the chair, but also on account of the eminently fair and impartial reports of the board meetings that had appeared in the paper which he had the honor to represent.
 Superintendent Kelley was given a vote of thanks for the able and effi- cient manner in which he had conduct ed the street department during the regime of the retiring board. A simi- lar vote was passed with reference to superintendent O'Brien, of the bureau of water. A vote of confidence was extended to City Engineer Cairns.
 Il move vote of thanks to the press" said Commissioner Whiting the whole of them. l think they used us fine. Look at all the rows we had here and they never said word about it. I often wished they'd give us a big spread the same as others, but suppose they didn't think us import ant enough to bother with. But, in all seriousness. want to say that the pa- perS used us all right, and the differ ent reporters that showed up around here the past two years were gentle men. every one of them.
 The vote was passed unanimously.
 On motion of Commissioner Whiting the clerk was instructed to write q communication to Commissioner Ma nancy informing him that the board 1elr exceedingly sorry that he was not able to be present at the last session and assuring him that he had the good will and esteem of all who had been associated with him on the board of public works of 19O0-19O1.
 There didn't seem to be anybody else to throw bouquets at, and after a brief pause Mayor Kilduff said:
 "Gentlemen--The most difficult task that q mayor of Waterbury has to perform is the selection of members of the several boards. The positions are very important and should be filled by men who have an interest in work that comes to them. When 1 named you as members of this board 1 ex- pected great things from you, and l can say from the bottom of my heart that you have exceeded my expecta- tions. During my twenty-two years in public office I never came i'll touch with more conscientious and faithful public servants. You have done as well as any other board of public works .that-has ever served the city. 1 think might say better, but l prefer to let it stand that way. 1 thank you from the bottom of my heart and hope that the public will appreciate the value of your services as I do. Gen tlemen, I wish you all happy New Year.
 The meeting then adjourned, and af- ter few minutes handshaking and leave taking all went their several ways. The members got along very nicely together. Many of them were strangers to each o.her at the first meeting, but during the two years since passed q friendship has sprung up between them which is likely to last as long as they live.

Temporary Injunction Against North
 ern Pacific Dissolved.
 MINNEAPOLIS, NIinn., Jan. l. Judge William Lochren of the United States circuit court has dissolved the temporary injunction issued in the case of Peter Power against the North ern Pacific Railway company by Judge Elliott of the district court of Henne- pin county last Monday
 The injunction which was dissolved by the order of Judge Lochren re- strained the Northern Pacific from issuing any evidences of indebtedness to retire the preferred stock of the company or to retire the preferred stock ill any other manner than by the use of the surplus net earnings of the road.
 It also restrained the Northern Pa cific and it's officers from entering into any agreement or doing any act by which the road would be consolidated pr merged through the medium of the Northern Securities company with the Great Northern or the Burlington or ei- ther of them.
 After the decision was made orally by Judge Lochren at the close of a days argument by the attorneys for both sides an effort was made by the plaintiffs attorneys to have the court fix the amount of bond which would be required in order to appeal from the decision and to stay all further pro ceedings in the lower court pending the appeal.
 Judge Lochren refused to allow a supersedeas bond in any amount to be given.
 Judge Lochren held that the North crn Pacific was acting within the au- thority of it's charter, of the contract entered into between it and its stock holders as incorporated in the cer- tificates of preferred stock and of the agreement entered into Nov. 13 in att tempting to retire the $T5,000,o0o Of preferred stock.
 He also held that railroad corpora lions could not do indirectly what the law prevented them from doing direct ly and that any method by which con solidation of two or more competing and parallel lines would be brought about would be illegal and 8 writ of in- function would lie to restrain the con- was nothing in the case as presented to him that would indicate the stock holders of the Northern Pacific Rail way company were attempting such consolidation

 Re-e1ects Old Officers.

Re-etecES Olu OmceFS. +t
 ALBANY, Jan. 1.-The state legisla- ture convened at II a. m. today instead of at noon, as has heretofore been the custom. The election of officers created little interest and was carried out in accordance with the programme fixed by the caucuses held last night by the Republican and Democratic assembly, men and senators.
 The slim attendance was noticeable feature Very little interest was mal.- ifested in the proceedings, and all signs indicated the belief that the com ing session would be brief and per haps uninteresting one.
 The assembly officials were re-elect- ed, as follows:
 s. Fred Nixon, speaker; Colonel A. F.. Baxter, clerk; Frank w Johnson, ser geant-at-arms; principal doorkeeper, Jacob Kemple, New York; first assist ant doorkeeper, Andrew Kehn, Albany; second assistant doorkeeper, Charles c. Gray. Livingston; stenographer H. c. Lammert. Kings.
 The Democrats named for speaker Hon. George NJ. Palmer of Schoharie, which honor carries with it the leader ship of the minority on the floor.
 Taxation of mortgages will be the star legislative feature of this sessi on. All other questions that it was thou ght some weeks ago would cause big fur " have simmered down in importance until they are as nothing at all beside this greater topic. At least tlis is the opinion of Speaker Nixon, the man of all others who, next to the governor, ought to know.
 The speaker is also authority for the statement that the present session will be a short one, with economy for the watchword. He believes that final ad- iournment will be taken by the middle of March. While there will be bills in troduced amending the present excise law, nothing will be accomplished this respect during the present session
