1t is the business of the judge to instruct
the jury on the law; the jury then decides
on the facts. But the jury must be instruct
ed by the judge on the law or they may de-
eide wrongly. 1t is the province of the
dealer to instruct the public on the general
law of his goods. They must then decide
the selection. Thus it is proper that you
should be told of Tea, that cheap tea is no

woMAN's PECULIAR DEATH.

Husband Says She Became Insane
 Witnessing Cremation of a Niece.
 Southington, Feb 19.-CharIes Wirtz- berger. a German farmer and a resi- dent of the South district, says his wife died several weeks ago, due to witnessing the cremation of q favorite niece. Mir Wirtzberger's farm is an isolated section east of South End proper, and aside from a few Germans has few acquaintances here, which ac- counts for much time elapsing before the public had knowledge of his mis- fortune. He says that his wife was called to New York by the illness of a niece. The latter died and Mrs Wirtz- berger was one of the funeral party. When the body was put in the furnace and she saw the flames through the open door, she became a raving mani- ac. She was taken to Bellevue hos pital, where she died few days later, never recovering her reason. Mrs Wirtzberger was buried last week in the Lutheran cemetery at Fresh Pond L. T., near the crematory Besides her husband she leaves a son and daugh- ter.

For the Much Talked of Water~
 bury Public Building.
sCovILL HOUSE PROPERTY

Can Be Had If the Government Only
 Gets a Move On-Local Men Not
 Pushing the Matter as Energetically
 as They Might-Attorney Church,
 Secretary of the Business Mems As~
 sociation, Will Bring the Matter
 Before That Body.
 Regarding the much discussed gov~ ernment building for this city, parties who recently visited official Washing ton say that the prospect Of it's be- coming a reality was never brighter. These parties were of the opinion that if those who have been conspic- uous in this project made themselves as active as they have been and if the people iii general and the business portion of them particularly made 8 concerted movement the bill for g public building would surely pass The time was never more opportuno for the realization of this much dis- cussed project. Tlle sympathy of the east is with the home of the Wal terbury watch and Its people and local public men say that there can now be no obstacle to it that cannot be removed.
 It has surprised many why the Bus mess Mems association has not taken up this matter. Stranger still. that organization never even paid it the slightest attention beyond making q motion or two, if it went to that ex- tent, and there 1t was dropped and forgotten. Attorney Church, clerk and secretary of the association, was asked to-day if that body had the matter under consideration in any way and he replied that so far as he knew it had not, but he would bring the matter before the board of direc- tors at their meeting tomorrow after noon and he believed that once the as- sociation takes it up matters will be pushed as rapidly as possible. He thought, though, that as many of the directors were total losers in the re- cent disastrous fire thetr time OF most of it. was directed toward ad- justing their affairs to resume busi- ness as soon as possible. Mr Church said that he will do all in his power to further the matter. President Hall of the association is south for the benefit of his health and will not be home for a month or so.
 A new site has been mentioned for the long sought for public building. Real Estate Agent Sehlegel agent for the heirs of the late E. c. Lewis, owners of the old Scovlll house. stat ed to-day that the site of the hotel is now prominently mentioned as suit able one for the government building. With the purchase of an additional twenty feet on the eastern side of the site it would possess all the re1uice- ments necessary for T government building and negotiations toward such q purchase have already been opened. A better place for postofFice could not be had in the city. is the opinion of many, as 1t would be located in the vicinity of all the city's public buildings.

WHIPPED THE BOYS
And a Spectator Threatened to Thrash
 The Teamster.

The Teamster.
 There came near being q row on Mill street yesterday afternoon, when d teamster belonging to one of the shops jumped off his team and laid the whip onto q couple of youngsters who were stealing a ride. A spectator thought the man was carrying it too far and picked up the cudgels for the under dog' He informed the team- ster that his treatment of the children was barbarous and told him to let up on it right off. The horseman was in no mood to be trihed with at the time and replied rather sharply to the young fellow on the sidewalk that he had bet ter mind his own business else he might get taste of the lash himself. 'sNot on your life,'' shouted the man on the curbStone, at the same time put ting himself in John T.. attitude. s'You dare not tackle one of your size. No one but q coward wouli abuse 2 child in that manner for such trivial offense. Step over here and I'll polish your mug!' Whether the toanlster did not care to accept the challenge or con- cluded it was better to be q coward than q corpse, no one could tell. but anyway He got HUG HIS teitlI siult uLofe on. One of the youngsters got out of the way without getting q scratch. but tho other fellow fell i'll the snow and got rattling good whipping. Proba- bly, he deserved it, but even so it is question if a man is justified in in- flicting corporal punishment upon boy for simply stepping on the end of the runner of his sleigh. It may bo all right for driver to "cut behind" and then he is running the risk of knocking the eye out of e little fcl- lows head for nothing. But men in wagons have to put up with good deal in snowy weather and it is not unnatural that they should get angry once in a while and do things they would wish they had left undone when they think it over.

He was taken before a commissioner and his bail fixed at $15,000, the new charge being that he embedded $S5,- GOO on October 20.
 Matteson was not found until late last night. He could not furnish the new bond and he will probably be ta- ken to Helena and lodged in Jail.
 National Bank Examiner Lazear states that if Matteson should secure bail on the second charge he will be at once re-arrested on charge of em- beZzling $1S.000. The bank officials became convinced that Matteson was preparing to leave and therefore he was arrested on a second charge and his bail increased.
