clever and strong. It is original both
in conception and in details; for 1t

to evolve the quaint idea of portray

a man who is desperately in love and
doesn't know what is the matter with
him, and who plumbers along in a
humorous. yet pathetic. way until the
full opening of his eyes bring him
perfect happiness.
There is about the play a quaint,
rare charm that fascinates The Pro-
fessor is so absentminded, so help
less and gentle and fine, that he must
be pitied if he were not admired so
much; and the characters who sur
round him Are so delightfully."- varied

Batchelder is altogether attractive as
the secretary--a part not easy to play
successfully and one that requires

the other members Nof the company.

Juror Planting Potatoes While Physi-
 clans Certificate Explained Absence.
 Doctors certificates are losing value in the district court. At short calen- dar this morning Judge Cowell remark ed at the last criminal term a juror sent in physicians certificate that he was too i'll to attend court and another juror said he5 saw, the sick juror planting potatoes when he was suppos- ed to have been too i'll to do anything. Nowadays he said anyone can get q certificate from physician. Att tcrney Cassidy, who is engaged in the case that brought the remarks from the court, said one of the parties to the case is expected to die, but that he is not dead yet. Judge Cowell thought doctors certificates are becoming too common as excuses for putting cases back.
 The docket was gone over and q large number of cases were taken off. This was the annual cleaning up of the docket. Many of the cases will be put back next week and scores of them were allowed to remain conditionally.
 The short calendar did not contain much business of any great import ance. The case of George A. Fuller against Horace Lemieux was taken off because of the plaintiffs failure to file Q bond. Judge Cowell said that the Inan who will not file bond in his suit will not pay his lawyers.
 In the case of Alfred Williams against the Waterbury Republican, At torney Minor, counsel for the plaintiff, filed motion to reopen q default. It appears Williams failed to file the cus- tomary bond to prosecute and MT Mi nor forgot all about it having been out of town when it was necessary to file 1 it. Attorney Meigs representing Bur pee and Carmody, counsel for the de 1 fendant, objected to the motion being
 granted because it was not made in writing, and therefore it was not prop erly on short calendar. MT O'Neill re
 marked that this was hardly neces-
 sary, whereupon MT Meigs jumped ur and fired at MT O'Neill the question; Are you engaged in this case?" 4 | written motion was ordered filed.

lie Does Not Believe in the Walking Delegate and
 Other Things Peculiar to Labor Unions.
DERBYS LABOR MAYOR EXPRESSES HIS VIEWS.
He Says the Walking Delegate Detriment to unonS Few Men Run Unons He Says, for Their Own nerests-Suivan Is
 Plumber by Trade and Gets $500 Salary as Mayor

Derby, June 20.-Mayor George F. Sullivan who was elected to his office last fall by the labor unions of the city in alliance with the democrats, to-day gave out an interview regarding labor unions in which he expressed some very interesting views respecting changes which he believes must be made in the management of labov I'D
 bns before they become really efficient organizations. Mayor Sullivan has al- ways been labor union man and was once president of the Central Labor union of this city. 1T have never be- lieyed,'' he said ttin the walking dele gate and have never believed in high salaried officials. The union cannot afford to pay big salaries to anyone. The walking delegate is one of those officials the union can get along with out. Local unions and the employers can more readily settle a strike when they come together without outside interference, than can a business agent who is unacquainted with the situation and does not understand local condi- Hons.
 Recent startling revelations have shown that a walking delegate is more of d detriment to unionism than ben eft. The fact is he is more or less of 'grafter' and the best thing that la bor unions can do is to have nothing to do with the walking delegate"
 In speaking of the recognition clause in agreements between unions and em- ployers, Mayor Sullivan said that in his opinion, 1t amounted to nothing. "When the employees ask union wages and hours and the employer grants these, that is recognition of the union It is not necessary to insert. clause in the agreement stating that the em- ployer agrees to recognize the union, because he has already done this. The union gains nothing by it's presence there. If an employer objects to it's insertion, it is foolish to press it and continue to fight for 1t. Tn my opinion, the clause is frequently inserted for the benefit of the walking delegate and by him for the purpose of keeping the breach open between men and employ CTS. ,e---.s
 sI believe the days of the walking delegate are numbered. The unions have been in the hands of a few men who have run them more for the inter-

est of themselves than for the interest or all the members. The result of this mas been that many of the members. do not attend the meetings and take no interest in them. There is evidence that this is the trouble with the unions ana many members are now awakine 70 the fact that only through bus;ness methods and united, impersonal efforf will strengthen the organization. When all the members take an active in-. terest in the union, there will pc no room for the walk ing delegate. The locals will sef- tie differences with employers and there will be no need for high saIaried omc1alsfwith large corps of clerks to eat up the funds which the locals pay to the national organization. Even the very highest officials in the organiza- ton should not receive higher pay fox their work than they can earn at their trade"
 Mayor Sullivan outlined his idea If 8 successful union as one patterned after fraternal societies and run for the benefit of members each local being supreme in its particular field and set ting all questions without the inter ference of outside officials or walking delegates, reserving a large part of the dues collected regularly for an emergency fund and paying a small percentage into the treasury of the na tional organization. By this means. 7 he said, the fund would be large enough in few years to carry tha. men through strike Where it is prolonged strike the national organiza- tion must come to the locals relief and pay back to 1t so much of the reserve fund as might be needed. Then the strikers will not find that the funds they supposed were in the treasury have disappeared, as was the case only short time ago when a big strike was ordered. These things being done. believe the labor union will be

SHOT CONCERT HALL SINGER
The Girl Had Repeatedly Refus-
 ed the Man.

In Desperation He Tried to Kill Her
 and Hlimself-Pr roffered Her a Box
 of Candy With One Hand and Two
 Shots From Revolver Held in the
 Other.
 New York, June 2o.-Made desperate by the repeated refusals of Olive Eos ter, concert hall singer, to marry him, Edward Teets, 21 years old, of this city, has shot and probably fatal 1y wounded the girl as she sat in the crowded balcony of music hall in Coney Island. Teets fired two shots at the girl and then turned the weapon upon himself but it missed fire, and he was disarmedCybefore he could pull the trigger again.
 A performance was going on at the time the tragedy took place and the panic stricken crowd stampeded, mak- ing rush for the doors and fighting radly to get out of range of the bull let's.
 When Teets approac ched the girl as s1le sat in the balcony, he drew, with his left hand. a box of candy. When the girl reached for if. he shot her. She screamed and sank to the floor. Teets fired second shot but missed. The uproar which arose instantly seemed to terrify him and he placed the pistol against his own head. It missed fire and policeman seized him. He was identified by the vic tim at the hospital, but refused to make any statement regarding the af- fair. The bullet lodged near the girls heart and the doctors said un- doubtedlv will cause death.

RELIANCE LEADING AGAIN.
The Three Racers Got a Good
 Start To-Day.

The New Boat Was in the Lead at
 Every Turn-The Race Was Not q
 Walkover, However, and Was Inter-
 esting from the Start.
 New York, June 2O.-After the show CT had ceased this morning, the wealth CT cleared and the wind breezed up from the northeast. The three yachts, Reliance, Columbia and Constitution, were started off about 12:30 and crossed the line as follows: Columbia 12:30:36, Reliance 12:30:54, Constitu- tion 12:30:56. The wind was blowing at the rate of six to seven knots an hour from the eastward. The Reli- ance came up rapidly and blanketing the old defender took the lead The Columbia and the Constitution had a great lufing match and the Constitu- tion tried in vain to get by the Colum- bia. The boats turned the first mark as follows: Reliance 12:5O:O2, Colun- bfa 12:51:05, and the Constitution 12:51 :26.
 As the yachts were turning the first mark the wind hauled around to the southeast, and on this leg the Reliance beat the Constitution one minute and two seconds and the Columbia one min- ute and eleven seconds. The Constitu- tion managed to pass the Columbia on the turn. The boats crossed the sec ond mark as follows: Reliance 1:20:56, Constitution 1:24:15 and the Columbia 1:27:58 The run for the home mark was a reach and the boats turned the mark to begin the second round of the course as follows: Reliance 1:47:52, Constitution 1:52:12 and the Columbia 1 .56:30
