 Disappointed.

Joint Committee of Railway Men
 Disappointed.
 NEW HAVEN, Conn, March 1O.- The members of the grievance commit tees which represent the BrotherhQpd of Railway Trainmen and the Order of Railway Conductors employed by the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad are much disappointed at their failure to induce the officials of the railroad eompaDy to acoede to their further requests to be received in con ference.
 Last evening the grievance commit tees held another meeting, and, al- though no announcement was made of what was done, it is learned upon good authority that statement was being prepared to be sent to the employees. The polling details will be settled upon later. There is evidently among the members of the committees feeling of disappointment.
 President Hall when asked for a statement said he had none to make; that there was no change in the situa- ton so far as he was aware; that he had maintained the position which the railroad had always insisted upon in the treatment of employees. He would be glad to meet any committees from the conductors and from the trainmen, but not any joint committees.

POLICE COURT DOINGS
vincenzo sanzivaro Bound Over to
 Saturday Without Bail.

The case against Vincenzo Sanzivaro, whose name yesterday was Jimmie Sullivan" and who stands charged with the murder of his fellow country man, Antonio Ciminera on Sunday evening, was again called in the city court to-day before Judge Burpee and was continued to Saturday morning without bail. It is on the decision or Deputy Coroner Pond that charge of murder in the first degree has been 1n- stituted against this man. The wit nesses on the subpoena for the state are Thomas ColOsanto, Maurice F. Car mody and H. E. Loucks., ColosantO IS better known as "Tom Collins" Be- sides these, there testified yesterday before Deputy Coroner Pond half dozen Italians. The report of the strife that led to Ciminera's death was practically borne out in the evidence at the coroner's examination. It be- gan in a game of cards between Cim- inera and 8 brother of the man under arrest, Giuseppe Sanzivaro. The men adj journed to the hallway of the room in which they were playing and the dispute was resumed there. Sanzivaro raised an umbrella with which to strike Ciminera. but before he could in- fiict the blow, his brother, the accused, issued from a room downstairs and seeing his brother in an attitude of de fense surmised he was In need of help
 and went to his assistance with his revolver. He plucked it from his hip pocket the moment he saw his brother and fired the fatal bullet. Ciminera fell to the floor and scarcely moved after Sanzivaro immediately took flight.
 A peculiar thing about this case Is that the accused appears to be desert
 ed by his friends. a thing very unus- ual in a case in which the elements are all Italian. So far the accused man has not procured a lawyer nor made any effort to do so. Nor have his friends, if he has any, done anything in that direction.
 The only other case before the court was that of Michael Lyons. charged with intoxication He was found guilty and fined S10 and costs

A NIGHT OF SONG.
Entertainment of Modern and Ancient
 Melodies

entertainment of Modern ana AnclenC
 Melodies.
 The Catholic Women's association Is busily engaged in distributing the tick cts for the concert to be given next Sunday evening, March 15. It is ill eel ebration of St Patrick's day and will occur on the Sunday evening previous because of the greater convenience of the arrangements. All friends of the association should attend this concert in order to help the association along ill financial way. In previous years the entertainment given by the associ- ation in honor of St Patrick has drawn out the largest of any attendance at its affairs. Every member who has not received tickets as yet is requested to call at the rooms of the association for them at her earliest convenience.
 The entertainment will include the singing Of modern and ancient Irish melodies, including, of course, some of the favorite songs of Moore The quar- tet who will furnish the music is com posed of some of Waterbury's most talented singers and for that reason alone should attract a large attend ance. No other race has a greater love for music than the Irish and no other race has a musical instrument on it's national emblem Each year as St PatTick's day comes round the story of Irish song is repeated in some form, but it never grows dull for there is such wealth of material to draw from that it continues unabated in interest. It is hoped that on Sunday evening St Patrick's hall will be filled to the doors.

A ECy0eIy Axiom.

'Do not bite off bigger piece than
you can chew" is homely axiom that
it is safe to heed and which expresses
in language more forcible perhaps than
elegant vital truth. But although we
all know the misery Of undertaking too
much, Of having more care upon us
than we know how to manage, why is
it that we, over and over again, place
ourselves in this uncomfortable posi-
ton? How easy it would be to gauge
our powers and our purses at their
right values and act accordingly if we
only wouldn't it is forever the same
old story.
We stupidity pile up burdens upon our
shoulders that are absolutely senseless,
but that after time weigh as heavily
as Sindbad the Sailors Old Man of the
Sea. In nine cases out of ten people
live beyond their strength and beyond
their income and what waste of vital
power that means. what depression
and carking care.

Mosu uitOes and Sounds.

A doctor, writing from Port of Spain,
Trinidad, to a medical journal, tells of
his experiments with mosquitoes. He
says that one of his childish amuse-
ments when playing with his compan-
ions in the early evening was to strike
a note that would attract the insects.
AS he remembers, the most alluring
sound was a continuous ''oo," sung in
a medium key, which was quickly
changed to "ah" in lower tone and
dwelt on in the same way. The effect
on the mosquitoes was magical. Their
singing would quickly increase in vol
ume, and they would Immediately at
tack the faces Of the children, who,
strange to say, enjoyed the sport. But
the mosquitoes did not enjoy it long,
for their love of music afforded an ex-
cellent opportunity of killing them.

Local sportsmen are discussing the
bill now before the legislature which
prohibits the sale of fish and game with
in the state at all seasons of the year, no
matter whether killed in Wisconsin or
elsewhere. Should the measure, as pro-
posed by the committee, become law,
hotels and restaurants will be prohibited
from serving game of ny@kind, unless
such game has been killed by the pro-
prietor or one of his guests. In connec-
tion with the plan of prohibiting the
selling of game the joint committee has
virtually decided to recommend a short
spring shooting season. The present in
tention is to recommend an open season
from about April 10 to April 25, with the
condition that no game birds shall be
sold during that season. -

If THE people were one tenth as much
concerned about primary election as it's
adherents pretend, there would not be
room in Wisconsin to hold the noise the
masses would make to realize it. But
the fact of the matter is, throughout the
whole four years that the subject has
been up not one solitary public meeting
or convention has been held in the state
by spontaneous acclaim of the common
people, clamoring for this fad of the pol
iticians.-Hudson Star-Times.
