TWENTY>SEVENTT4 DAY OF STRkE--BURPEES HARSH TERMS
SICK OF THE TOWN.
Strike Breaker Tried to Get Out of Town With Days Re- ceipts Also Had Punch
 Belonging to the
 Company.

The detectives had a run to-day af- ter strike breaker named Laurie, who was suspected of making an eff fort to leave town with his receipts for yesterday and a punch belonging to the company. They watched him at the Naugatuck station, but he didn't board the train and was finally ap- preached by Detective. Dodds on Bank street. He said he had the punch and receipts, but he couldn't get an op- portunity to turn them in. After talking the matter over he decided to accompany an officer to his boarding house, secure the satchel containing the property and turn it over to the company. Laurie is a bright appear ing young fellow and acted as if he had seen all he wanted of life at the car barns.

Strikers Make Another Statement and Talk About
 Last Nights Conference.
DETERMINED TO FIGHT NOW TO A FINISH.
Exciting Meeting of the Strikers Held This MornngTheM Members Vowed With Right Hands Raised to Never Accept the Terms Proposed Last Night or to Go Back While
 Strike Breaker Remains

Some of Sheriff Dunham's deputies sport i've walk" buttons on the street. It is not at all likely that this is an in- dication of sympathy with the strikers. It is safe to predict that the badge is used as bait to catch the unwary. If the deputies can make the game work they will help the strikers as much if not more than anybody else, for 1t seems to be generally believed that the stone fhrowers are the worst enemies the striking HOlleymen have to contend with. Judging from what can be heard on the streets, if acts of violence should be resumed people will step into the cars, and if it comes to that then the strikers might just as well throw mp the sponge.
 large number of Waterbury bellies feel highly indignant at the governor Tor the summary order to the militia ito leave Waterbury They say fbay should have had time to see their ~feI- lers' before they left. One girl has watch. belonging to a New Britain soldier and the soldier is in possession of very valuable diamond ring which the same lady exchanged with him for the timepiece, the understanding being that each should get his and her own OdSh SOluttlIuG UGIOEG the DOYS were ordered home. Several other such cases have been reported, so that lt will take a lot of correspondence 10 straighten out the complications caused by the summary withdrawal of the armed men.
 All the military excepting Companies A and c have gone home, the Second regiment with the second section of the. machine gun battery and the second section of the signal corps returning. to New Haven this. morning General Frost and staff remains at the arnnory still. The general reported last night as being very quiet, not a report of damageor disturbance anywhere reach ing him. The car barn and the power house were to-day as they were before the arrival of the military. The streets assumed their old familiar appearance and everybody, apparently, got down to work again, there being no mora sights" to be seen. But few strag-. glers were left behind and the Ddtch company's mascot, yellow dog. was abducted at the depot The owner hadE merry time of it and threatened to keep the train at the depot until his yellow dog was produced. He did not get his dog, however, probably on ac- count of there being fresh sausage at private supper in the armory last! evening.

THE YOUNG TRIAL.
Medical Experts Watch the Prisoner 7
 No Evidence of Insanity

New York, Feb G. The trial of Wil-, liam Hooper Young, the grandson of Brigham Young, accused of the mur< der of Mrs Anna Pulitzer, was contin- used yesterday. When the first panel Of talesmen had been exhausted there were ten jrrymen in the box, and Jus tice Herrick adjourned court until to- day, when it is expected the new panel of 100 talesmen will be present.
 During recess Young was under the observance of medical experts and they reported that as yet they had found no evidence of insanity. He ate his lunch with good appetite and was able to walk to his seat in the court room. During Hull in the proceeIinga Young said audibfy to one of his cou1a- sel, "Can't you get me the Molineux rabbit foot ?"
 It is understood that Young's mother will testify in his defense. She was the first wife of John w Young, who is now ill in Paris, and she is now the wife of a Philadelphia physician.

A HAPPY PARTING
When the sarsfields Said Fare we'll to the High School Kind Words From Prin-
 cipaI Wilby and Miss
 s. Il. Cairns.

Most pleasing, indeed, to the mem- bers of Company 0, SarStield Guards, Second regiment, c. IN. G., must have been the reception which was accorded to them this morning by the pupils of the, High school as they were about to leave the school, where they have been staying during the week, for home. Cheer after cheer rang out for Cap tain Donovan and the sturdy soldier boys And in turn the members of the company cheered again and again Principal Wilby, the members of the faculty, and the school officials. It was thought at first that the placing of a military company in the High school would interfere with the studies, but the impression was wiped away as those concerned saw how gentlemanly the soldiers acted Their discipline was fine and so was that among the scholars. As one teacher remarked, No less deserving of praise is Captain Donovan for the fine discipline which prevailed among the soldiers, than is Principal Wifby for the strict discipline which was manifested in the conduct of the pupils
 Principal S. W. WiIby said: ssI am opposed to the placing of soldiers in school buildings when classes are in session. but have only words of praise for the gentlemanly conduct and excel lent discipline of Captain Donovan's s men, They caused no trouble, did no damage, were very accommodating, and left the building in as fine and as clean condition as it was when they
 entered. Since the first day one wollld not know that they were in the build
 ing. except you saw one here and there.''
 Miss Susan IT. Cairns, who is teach CT in the room next to the assembly hall, where the men were staying, said:
 tsToo much praise cannot be given to the soldiers for their admirable con- duct. There was not the least friction between them and the scholars. Not one single study was interrupted. The pu- pils were as attentive and as studious as if the soldiers were far away from them. complimented my scholars this morning on their excellent be haviOr during the week and told them that everyone of them and every mem mer of the company was deserving. of 3 gold medal for their Y fiDe deport- ment."
 Before departing CaDtain Donovan EMHS0uJGu 1 SflDOy LliS school officials with a box of cigars and [ his compliments.
 The passenger traffic was about the same to-day as it has been since cars began running. Two cars could com 1 fortably carry all the passengers that
 rode at noon, the company's busiest hour
 There was a collision between cars on the Wateville line and the East Main street line about 20 last night l The Watervillte car ran plump into l the East Main street car and the mo 1 torman of the former was thrown from
 the car ito the ground. Several specta- i tors ran to his assistance, thinking he l had been injured. They found him un. l injured, but in very sboozy'' condi,
 ton. He was quickly dragged into a
 car by Superintendent Wales and other
 employees of the erolley company an6
 taken to the car barn., It was not
 known whether or not he has been dis l charged as yet.

bury's Recent Disturbance. { Hartford, Feb 6.-The last day for new business in the general assembly for 1903 saw the heaviest rush of new measures for the season.
 MT Finn of Meriden presented a reso- lution which provides that the mayor of any city city may order closed all saloons, bowling alleys and billiard halls in case of riot or public upris- ing.
 MT Bowen of Woodstock offered q resolution appropriating $10OO0 of state money for the Law and Order league.
 MT Hubbard offered a bill retiring all officers of the militia at the age of 60.
 In the house the bill repeating the indeterminate sentence bill, passed two years ago, was defeated this noon on an unfavorable report by the judiciary committee.
 The bill prohibiting the marriage of whites and blacks was defeated. !, Tn the senate an important move twas made to-day in the New Haven Connecticut Western railroad fight, when bill was presented by Senator Woodruff This bill makes it impos- ClO1C IOI IuC N1lOll5 1xIAt3s Idl1IOhu, iethe corporate name of the new rail- road company incorporated by the Connecticut Western for the purpose of pushing through the old Tariffville- Springfield extension, to secure rights to pass over the East Granby farm. The bill reads that no real estate shall be taken without permission of the parties interested therein by any rail- road company which shall not have re ceived it's franchise in a special char ter granted by the genesea assembly. As the "Short Line'' is not incorpor- ated by a special franchise, the bill 1 if passed will block the long fought out East Granby extension. It was referred to the judiciary committee.
 The New England protest against soft coal nuisance came up in bill to amend the public statutes so that any factory using soft coal shall not permit smoke to rise from it's chim- neys for more than five minutes at a time on a penalty of $1O0 fine.

In this issue will be found call for
a meeting of citizens to consider the
Kimballton Electric railway question.
AS is known to most of our readers
the Kimballton people have about
5000 of stock pledged to put into a
road from there to Manning. They
are employing civil engineers to make
a survey of the route so as to ascer-
tain the cost. Do we in Audubon
want to stand quietly by and see a
road constructed there which will di-
vert trade from us when, by doing
something ourselves, we could at least
hold our present business and perhaps
add to it? A road from Audubon to
Harlan would be more useful to Kim
ballton people than one north. The
county seats east and west are where
they have calls ten times more than to
Manning. We hope this can be ar
ranged and the road built where it
will do the most good.

Frank Goodwin has left in this Office
for a short time historic relic, a
weapon called a pike. 1t is said to
be one of a large number that John
Brown had made and had with him
when captured at Harper's Ferry.
The would be liberator intended to
arm the slaves with them. 1t is rather
a rude weapon, the blade being about
twelve inches long with sharp point
and sharp on both sides. 1t looks
like it had been made in a blacksmith
shop. Franks father, G. S. Goodwin,
now deceased, worked at the Rock Is
land arsenal and bought it there about
twenty years ago, all of them having
there when the Harper's
Ferry arsenal was closed. 1t is a
grim reminder of the tragic times pre-
ceding the war.
