THOMAS ATTwATER BARNES.

| At a special meeting of the trustees of the Connecticut Savings bank of New Haven held January 30 1902, the following minute was unanimously adopted, and it was also voted that q copy thereof be sent to the family of the deceased, and that the same be printed in the daily press:
 The trustees of the Connecticut Saw ings bank of New Haven, assembled in special meeting at the banking house on this the 30th day of January, 1902, having heard of the death of T. Att water Barnes at Los Angeles. on the 27th instant, deem it most fitting that we should place on our records an eS- pression of our feelings at this time.
 Mr Barnes had been a member of this corporation and one of it's trustees since 1880, an auditor since 1890 and
 member of it's finance committee since 1896 He had therefore been closely concerned with our affairs for a score or more of years.
 The death of a man so long and so in timately connected with this institution cannot fail but to create in us, his asso- ciates and co-trustees, feelings of the deepest sorrow and regret. He seldom failed us in his attendance at our meet ingS, he was ever faithful in the per formance of his duties. he was always careful of every matter. even of detail, committed to his charge. Under such circumstances it would be indeed strange if we had not grown to rely upon his judgment and experience, and to call them frequently into operation.
 These characteristics were parts of hie ID trre 90 that we find them not only exhibited here in our own close relations with him, but we also find them in all his other relations in l'fe, whether as business man. in politics or as a citizen By virtue of these same characteristics he won and occupied many positions of power and of conf dence, in the performance of whose du- ties he always received the respect and esteem of his fellow men. His death. therefore, is not only a. loss to us, but to the public as well, with which he had for so many years mingled and for the advantage of which he had in many divers ways rendered faithful services.

SKATING ON THE WHITE LOT

hkA |
 "Oh. for the good old days sighed an old lady at the breakfast table of downtown boarding house during the past week. The sudden cold spell had set her to thinking
 T remember when the fire engines used to be taken down to the basin, a line of hose run from them up to the White lot, and after banks had been built. water pumped on the grass until it had reached foot or more in depth One nights cold breath was enough to freeze ice to a thickness strong enough to hold all the skaters who wanted to participate. It was a merry sight to see the hundreds glid- ing over the smooth surface. In those days it was very unusual to get any sort of skating on the river, and what little there was made the sport extremely dangerous.
 "Tf my memory doesn't fail me tick cts were sold for ten cents by the fire men who dragged the engine to the river side and built up the dams, and quite a pretty sum was realized.
 ''Those were the days when everybody seemed to enjoy themselves in a society that was not exclusive, and there were no lines drawn at the White lot skating pond Wa shington Star.

brought on the war with Spain and
the votes OF members of both parties
ratified the treaty which made the is
lands American territory The most
telling portion of his speech was the

attitude of the opposition and the at
itude of the opposition during the civil
war

member of the minority of the com
mittee. made a presentation of the

Austin, June 20.-The supreme court
has affirmed the case of the state OF
Texas against the Shippers Compress

finally in the supreme court The
state lost the case on the facts. How.

1895 is valid in that the state can
annul charters. but cannot collect
