Says We Ought TO Save More.

Simeon F.. Baldwin, of New Ha'
ven, associate justice of the su-
rreme court OF Yale law school,
spoke on lursday evening before
the Hartford Working1nen's club,
on Saving and Spending and
made some interesting remarks. He
said that single man earning SI.5o
a day should Law by IS cents day
and should not get married until he
had SIoo saved up. He said there
was a general tendency to spend
more money than necessary. Judge
Baldwin said the American native
is spending too much money in eat
ing and furnishing the home, and
although the nation is much richer,
nconle are not saving as much in
F-opCrtion TO income as they did
t.tY years ago.

United States Consul at Puerto Plata
San Domingo, has cabled the State De

Plead GuiIty---Found Not Guilty.

A good one is being told on Col. J. C.
l.. Harris in connection with a trial
this week in the Federal court.
Colonel Harris had as a client John
Allen, from Granville county, charged with
violation of the liquor law. Allen feared
he would be convicted though he said he
told his attorney he was innocent and
urged that submission be made, which
Colonel Harris did asking that Allen be
dismissed on payment of the costs.
Il can't do that" said Judge Purnell
MIR. Clerk, enter on your books that the
prisoner pleads guilty and asks for dis
missal on payment of costs. This is re
fused and the prisoner is found not guilty
and is dismissed
The laugh is on Colonel Harris who take>
it quite good naturally. He says he
urged his man not to submit. but that
Allen was scared and was willing to pay
cost to get out of the affair.

MARINES ON THE ISTHMUS.
The Administration Expects Them to
Keep Order There.

Washington. Dec. 15.-Regarding the
various reports about the dispatch OF
troops to the isthmus of Panama the As
ISOLATED Press is enabled to make this
statement:
Until the Senate shall have ratified the
Hay BunauVarilla treaty the administra-
tion will look to the marines to protect
the isthmus and keep order there, unless
in the meantime it is learned that con
siderable force of Colombian troops are to
attack Panama In the latter event the
protection of the republic could be best
accomplished by the army and troops
would supplant the marines. 1t may be
stated, however, that this government
does not expect such an emergency TO
arise at present and has prepared to re-
tain the present force of marines in 18th
mian waters until after the ratification OF
the canal treaty.

London, Dec. 15.-Few bye-elections o.

interest shown in today's contests in the
Dullwich division of Camberwell and al
Lewisham, both Conservative districts
for years. DR.. F. Rutherford Harris
Conservative who was confidential agent
of the late Cecil Rhodes and c. F. G
Masterman NiberaD, contested Dullwich
while Major Coates and J. w. Cleland
represented the Conservatives and Liber
ais respectively in the Lewisham Dor
ough. The fiscal question was prominen;
throughout the campaign.
The borough of Lewisham, Major Coates
wa selected by majority of 2,012. AT
Dullwich, +. Rutherford Harris was
elected by majority of 1,437.
Joseph Chamberlain tonight expressed
himself as delighted with the result of
the elections in Lewisham and Dullwich
and the protectionist dailies claim the re-
suits as a complete triumph for Mr..
Chamberlain's policy.
Both constituencies polled very heav-
lily. Lewisham. which is largely a work.
ing class district, shows a reduced ma
jority of about 400 compared with the last
contested election in 1892
In Dullwich, which is mainly the home
of the city clerks, greater reduction is
shown. the majority for the Conservatives
in 1895 having reached 5000.
These reductions are of small signifi-
canoe, however in the face of the fact that
the Chamberlainite candidates secured
large majorities where the free trade par
ty undoubtedly hoped to win. This double
victory will be of great advantage to Mr..
Chamberlain, who resumes his campaign
tomorrow night at Leeds, when he will
address a big meeting.
The Liberal dailies confessed discourage
ment, but the free trader will redouble
their efforts since, as the Chronicle re-
marks: "Mr. Chamberlain is power in
the country which it would be most Sc
rious not to estimate highly"
