 We believe that reverence for the flas is not alone the admiration of its beau l ty, nor the display of it's colors, 1t is the veneration for it. the eagerness to fling | it to the breeze, that chivalry which prompts us to render due homage to it. | that determination to protect it. | We believe that love for country is not the passive acceptance of it's pro- l lection, nor the enjoyment of it's priv I ileges, not eulogy for the government whose policy may be In accord with our tenets; it is the discharge of the responsibilities which citizenship inn poses, the readiness to render our best l service.''
 The fact that February 22 comes on Saturday this year precludes us from the hope that we should be able to se cure the attention of those we wish. As 1 Sunday follows that holiday it is not ! uniting that such observance as we may secure should occur on that day. We cannot accomplish what we de- sire, what we think ought to be done, by our former method-public exercises given at the expense of those who do not participate in them otherwise. More citizens can be made successfully inter etsed through you. For this reason we make this appeal.
 As authorized by vote of the exec utive committee of this general com mittee we express our wish and convey it to you in this way, that on the Sun day following Washington's birthday your sermon be on some subject rela- tive to this day or that in your sermon you make some extended reference thereto; and that appropriate music be rendered in the church.

COSMOS PICTURES AT TIERNAN's
They Are Attracting a Gread Deal of
 Attention.


 They Are Attracting a Gread Deal of
 Attention.
 Nothing has attracted so much atten- ton in New Haven in a long time as the Cosmos Pictures do at the art store of r. w. Herman & Co.,, 827 Chapel street. In the spacious and Well-lighted gallery at the rear of the store the pie lures, effectively mounted on Dixie grey paper, are continually viewed by a passing throng. That every one is fond of pictures needed no such proof as this, but that such excellent reproduce tions of the art of the world at small cost to the purchaser could be put forth has never before been demonstrated, and the number of people attending the exhibition and going out with packages of pictures testifies to the wide appre- citation they have met with at once. nl New York, Hartford, Boston, Worcester and Washington they are already known but this is their first visit to New Haven, and indeed they are very new this being but the second exhibit that has been made out of New York city.
 The pictures cover every range of good art, and all interests find in this collection something satisfactory and desirable Very often those who are pursuing certain line of art study or reading, not satisfied with the poor il- lustrations of books and magazines, buy, for their own satisfaction, fram- ed engraving by much liked master. Obviously, this cannot go far with a student, for the expense of collecting engravings is prohibitive in the major ity of cases. Now that we have the Cosmos pictures it becomes possible for every one to own a. good collection in his particular lines of research. Tn this series there are already over one hun dred pictures from the Italian and French schools, with many from the Dutch, Flemish, Spanish, German, Eng fish and American.
 Quite valuable features of the Cos mos pictures is the well printed and well conceived caption Many low priced pictures are put out without ti- ties. and especially without the name of the artist On the Cosmos prints the correct title of every picture is given distinctly the name of the painter or sculptor if known to the authorities on art, the dates of the birth and death of the painter and the gallery in which this particular work may be found, if it is fortunate enough to be treasured thus. These facts, simple in themselves, are carefully attended to and are reli- able. They give to the picture at once an tinaccustomed value, for usually such questions have to be answered by a reference to the encyclopaedia.
 Among the recent paintings reproduc- ed attention may be drawn to the work of Alma-Tadema, Burne- Jones, Holman Hunt, Edwin A. Abbey and Sargent, whose ever popular Prophets" are here for the first time put within reach of all

TAMPA,s EARTHLY PARADISE.

The Tampa Bay Hotel is beyond all question the finest resort hotel on the North American continent, and situated as 1t is in tropical Florida, makes it all the more attractive. The climate is sublime, and now in February, while the winter blasts are blowing in1 the North, the warm sunshine of the South brings health and pleasure to all who visit this beautiful resirt. Fish are plentiful, and nearly every species from the magnificent tarpon, the silver king, to the small but beautiful trout, are to be caught in the waters around the hotel. The season for good duck shoot ing is at hand, and not a day passes that parties do not come in with num- bers of the birds, have them prepared at the hotel by the most noted chefs in the world, and served few hours after they are shot.
 There are nearly half a hundred pro- fessional and amateur golfers wintering at this resort, and this fact can be ac- counted for when one remembers that the links of the Tampa Bay Golf club are not only the finest in the state, but among the best in the country A through Pullman and dining service is operated from Jersey City to the hotel steps without change of cars.

AudIey- Pratt Suit stiIl on Trial Fifteen n
 Mose Witnesses to be Heard-The Ca
 htn Case Before Judge Elmer-Matters
 In Common Pleas and City Courts. l Judge Elmer. of the superior court,
 yesterday rendered decisions in several | cases pending before him. In the case
 of Sanford B. Martin against William Frohlch, the "barber's itch" case, a motion by defendant for more specific | statement in the complaint is granted as to paragraphs and 3 of the motion, which asked that the plaintiff be or
 dered to state wherein the defendant, by his servant, was negligent and wherein he failed to use due and prop CT skill" what "care and precaution'
 he neglected and wherein the conduct
 of the defendants servant was i'm
 proper, unskillful, careless and negll- gent,' as alleged in the complaint The
 motion is denied as to paragraph l. ln
 which the defendant asked that the plaintiff be required to state the name of the agent of the defendant who per formed the employment mentioned in
 thethe complaint and from which the
 plaintiff alleges that he sustained in- jury.
 In the case of John P. Forbes against the Winchester Avenue Railroad com pany, a suit brought to recover dam ages for injuries received by the plain tiff by being struck by trolley car on Campbell avenue, motion to strike from the jury list is granted.
 The plaintiff did not have the case placed on the jury list within thirty days after the return day, but did have it placed on the list after the lapse or thirty days. The defendant filed mo- tion to have the case stricken rom the jury list, but the plaintiff attempted to secure construction of the law or lS9o regarding jury lists to permit the case to remain on the last. The lS9o law provides that if a case is not placed on the jury list within thirty days after the return day and an answer IS not filed within thirty days then the case may be placed on the jury list within ten days after the filing of the answer. In this case the defendant filed an an swer on the thirtieth day after the re- turn day, and Judge Elmer ruled that this was a filing of answer within the thirty days and that consequently the case could not be placed on the Jury list. The motion to strike 1t therefrom was granted and the case must now be tried before the court.
 In the case of Michael Mulqueen against the Fair Haven and Westvllle Railroad company to recover $l,50o damages Judge Elmer gave a Judgment for the plaintiff to recover nominal damages of s25 and costs. The plaintift | was injured while alghting from a car at what is known as Webb's Switch, | near Centerville, and alleged that be- i fore he had alighted the car was start ed, causing him to be thrown to the ground and breaking his leg. The road defaulted the case and a hearing in damages was held before Judge Elmer, who finds that the defendant was in no way negligent

COURT DID NOT ERR
APPEALS TRIBUNAL PASSES
UPON HoLzENDoRF CASE.
Effort to Compel Action by the United
States Against German EN-
pire-other, Cases.

In an opinion written by Mr. Justice
Shepard the Court of Appeals has affirmed
the Judgment of Justice Hagner of the Su-
preme Court of the District of Columbia In
the case of the United States ex relation
Ferdinand HoIzendorf, appellant, against
John Hay, Secretary Of State.
Holzendorf filed a petition In the District
Supreme Court August last for writ of
mandamus to the Secretary of State, COM
manding him forthwith to institute ''vigor-
Gus and proper proceedings against the en-
pire of Germany, and the emperor thereof,
for the recovery of damages in behalf of
Holzendorf in the sum of $500 600. The
grounds of the petitioners claim are sub
stantially as follows:
Holzendorf, a naturalized citizen of the
United States, visited Germany under
regular passport issued by the Department
of State. May II, 1898, it is alleged he was
falsely imprisoned in an asylum for the in
sane at Dalldorf, Germany, where he was
confined until July 8, 1899, and until re-
leased by decree of the court of last resort
in the city of Berlin, that court finding that
he had been sound in mind and body, quiet
and peaceable, and not publicly dangerous
since his return to Germany Holzendorf
then alleged that he made application for
relief to the consul general and the ambas-
sador of the United States to Germany and
to the executive department at Washington.
submitted, declined to lay rule upon the
Secretary of State to show cause why the
writ should not issue, but dismissed the pc
tition after hearing given to Holzendorfs
counsel in support Of his demand.
In the opinion of the Court of Appeals
Justice Hagner did not err in Diminishing
Holzendorf's petition.
Other Judgments Affirmed.
The Court of Appeals, in an opinion writ
ten by Mr.. Chief Justice Alvey, has at
firmed the judgment of the District Su-
preme Court in the case of the City and
Suburban railway of Washington city, ap-
pellant, against Hedwig E. Svedborg. The
action was to recover damages for an in
jury to the person of the plaintiff, caused
by the alleged negligence Of the defend
ant, while the plaintiff, a passenger, was
alighting from one of the defendants street
cars.
In an opinion written by Mr.. Justice Nor
ris the Court of Appeals has affirmed the
judgment of the Police Court in the case of
Mike MONTE, plaintiff in error, against The
District of Columbia. The cause involved
the validity of the police regulation pro-
hibiting licensed vendors stopping for
longer period than may be necessary to
make sale. Mike MONTE was convicted of
stopping his push cart of bananas on Penn
regulation. 1t was contended that the reg
ulation was unreasonable. The Court of
Appeals holds to the contrary.
The Court of Appeals, in an opinion writ
ten by Mr.. Justice Shepard,H has affirmed
the Judgment of the lower court in the case
Katharine B. Smith, appellants, against
James A Sullivan. The appeal was from
a judgment rendered for Sullivan in an
action of ejectment. .-Tres

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE ABROAD.
London Times Says It is the Same as
Last Year.

A special to the New York Times from
London today says: The Times, comment
ing upon President Roosevelt's message to
Congress- says 1t is identical in all substan-
tial points with the message of year ago.
In policy tone, aspiration and form OF ar
gument the two messages are SO SIMILAR
says the Times editor, that 1t would be al
most impossible for the critic to extract a
semblance of difference from the mere al
terations Of phraseology.
president Roosevelt thinks, says the
Times, that in certain circumstances the
Constitution ought to be amended, and in
the abstract he is perfectly right, but II Is
more than doubtful whether the eVlls ne
has in view can be removed by legislation
In this country we have made efforts IN
this direction, and in America as well as
here the principle Of enforcing publicity
has been applied in the case of banks. 1t
is, however, very difficult to protect the
people against themselves, and, at the bot
tom. that is the problem before u.s..
The paper points out that the President
wants every fiscal arrangement to be re-
vised from purely business standpoint
the interests of sections and communities
being alike carefully consulted.
1T Is a counsel Of PERFECTION remarks
the Times editor, "and an ideal to be kept
in view, but one hardly to be realized in
this imperfect world
Some of the London morning papers re-
gard President Roosevelt's message as dis
appointing, inasmuch as, according to their
view, ''he adopts a cautious and conserva-
tive policy, rather than revolutionary one,
in dealing with the trust question and the
tariff" On the whole, however, while care
fully examining the message in detail, there
is not a strong disposition on the part of the
press to criticise it. The general impress
sion is that President Roosevelt has been
influenced by the warning echoes of the last
elections and that he seeks to attract rather
than attempts to compel the support of
Congress
A leading paper says: 1.-The message is
more remarkable for the lofty idealism Of
it's language than for any boldness in it's
specific recommendations
The Presidents enunciation of the for
eign policy of the United States and his
advocacy of strong navy meet with warm
appreciation, and the message generally
is welcomed as a tranQuilizing one by prov
ing that organic change of policy Is in
tended.

AGAINST VOTING CONTESTS.
Policemen Not Allowed to Take Part
in Them.

Chief Of Police Sylvester has issued an
order prohibiting any private Sergeant or
lieutenant from IN any manner becoming a
party to any voting contest in which any
member Of the police department may be in

atty Of dismissal, prohibited any private,
