the state.
 The real estate dealers of this city says the New Britain Herald, are in- terested in the following bill, which one of Waterbury's representatives at Hartford will be asked to present to the present session of the general as- sembly:
 An act concerning exemptions of wages, benefits and insurance moneys.
 Be it enacted by the senate and house of representatives in general assembly convened:
 Section 900 of the general statutes, revision of 1902, is hereby amended to read as follows:
 So much of any debt which has ac- crued by reason of the personal ser vice of the defendant as shall not ex- ceed $50 including wages due for the personal service of any minor child, shall be exempted and not liable to be taken by foreign attachment or exc cution, but there shall be no exemption of any debt accrued by reason of the personal service of the defendant against a claim for the defendant s personal board or tenement rent All benefits allowed by any association Of persons in this state towards the SUD- port of any of its members incapaci- tated by sickness or infirmity from at tending to his usual business shall 1 also be exempted, and not liable to be taken by foreign attachment or exc cution; and all moneys due the debtor from any insurance company upon pol 1 icies issued for insurance upon prop erty. either real or personal, which is exempt from attachment and execu- tion. shall in like manner be exempted to the same extent as the property SC insured.

Colored Men Quarrel Over Game of
 Cards and Come Before the Court.

Cards and Come Before the Court.
 James Mack Turner and J. W. Butts, both colored, quarreled over q game of cards in an alleged gambling house in the rear of Pasternak Bros saloon on Bank street yesterday afternoon. Turner lost a little money. He was on an errand concerning all axe handle and could not resist the temptation to have a quiet game of setback. He i'm piled that Butts pilfered a nickel from him. Butts resented the imputation and told him if he wanted satisfaction they could retire to the yard and have it out like gentlemen. Then, according to Butts, Turner struck him swinging blow over the left temple with the axe handle. The mans forehead was cut and the axe handle was stained with blood. Turner then took to his heels. He said he struck in self-defense Off cer McCarthy, who made the arrest, tes- tified that the place where the assault occurred was full of blood. Judge Burpee thought there was provocation and fined Turner 8 and costs.
 James Finley and his wife had trou- ble yesterday. They live on South Main street. Finley was drunk. That was the cause of the trouble. he al- lowed. It was his first time in court and he seemed sorry for what he had done. He turned his wife and children out doors. Mrs Finley said he has of late been very ugly and favorite trick of his is to throw knives at her. He was fined S1O and costs.
 Charles Reilly was fined ST and costs l for intoxication.
 A complaint against Mary Noeski was continued week. and complaint ! against William Devoy for breach oi l the peace was settled for S10.

rhreat. From Newfouna1ana.

sri. JOHNS, N. F., Jan. 30.-The agitation in favor of g retaliatory poli- cy against the United States should the Bond-Hay treaty be defeated is growing in force. The Free Press, an independent opposition journal, de- clares that if the treaty is rejected the government owes it to the dignity of the British colony to act promptly and decisively. It is thought that re- taliatory legislation will be adopted without meeting with opposition in either branch of the legislature.

STtlL FAITHFUL.

The Indianapolis Sentinel says: There are evidences that large part of the republicans of Indiana are growing very weary of their Kentucky refugee friends. Taylor and Finley. but the morning organ still shows its loyalty to the lost cause by the cheer ful observation that:
 There can be no doubt that Judge Cantrill will be able to convict Jim Howard for the third time. having the right kind of jury to assist him.
 There can be no reason assigned why an honest jury should not have convicted Howard at either of the pre- vious trials except the broad assump- ton that anybody who testifies to his guilt is necessarily liar, and his evil dence should be wholly disregarded. That has been the Indiana republican position from the first. and there has been no reason whatever for the as- sumption except that Howard is re publican. and consequently must be innocent.
 And yet when the average republi- can is pinned down he has to admit that his defense is "insuficiency of proof" Nobody can deny that Gobel was killed by somebody; that the fa- tal shot was fired from a building that was full Of republicans and nobody but republicans; that officers of the law were excluded and the murdeder spirited away with a premature par don from the governor in his pocket. No sane nan has any doubt that the murder was the result of a conspiracy or that the conspiracy must have in, voived 8 number of the leading re publican officials. This is all evident without 8 word of oral testimony, and the only question Is the proof of the location Of the guilt.
 If ever 8 conspiracy was proven by testimony of the conspirators this one has been proven, and the only ansyel to the testimany is that the witnesses are liars. 4 new witness, Frank Ce cil, who has been under indictment as an accessory, and fugitive from Ken lucky, appears at this trial and testi lies that he was offered S2,50o to xii Gobel, by Caleb Powers and by Gov Taylor. To this cumulative tes timony Gov. Taylor answers tha Cecil is liar. What else could Gov Taylor say2 It is not surprising that this sort of defense is not sat isfactory even to republicans. It i! not surprising that there are no mor' wiSe euppers to Gov. Durbin's Ken lucky guests. It is not surprising that they are shunned-that even re publican politicians edge away iron them. There is punishment ap pointed for the crime by the highe powers that can not be evaded even b, the defiance of law by governor . Indians"

Saturdays town meeting brought
out about 200 voters and the improve
ments were voted with a rush. The
meeting was called to take action on
the proposed extension of the road
from the Mitchell school straight past
the cabinet shop to the Main street,
and also to see if the town would SO
grade Main street as not to require
the selectmen to keep in repair the
road running parallel thereto from Mr.
Terry's to Miss Emily Aliens, 1t was
expected that there would be vigor-
GUS opposition, but it failed to materi-
alize, and both votes were carried by a
very large majority. This will result
in one of the most important improve
ments ever carried out in Woodbury..
The entire expense is to be borne by
]. H. Cowles, who is to be highly
praised for his generosity and public
spirit. If the town had many such
citizens as Mr. Cowles it would forge

A COSTLY BONFIRE,

| COSTLY BONFIRE.
| On Thursday of last week the Hol.
low was treated to quite costly bon.
fire at the expense and without The
consent of Charles B. Pierce Of this
place, whereby he lost some 10 cords OF
wood and considerable timber. It is
due alone to the prompt action of MI
Pierce and his brother that still great.
er loss did not ensue, and had the wind
been in the opposite direction even
this would not have prevented the fire
from sweeping down through and des-
troying the remaining portion of the
cord wood, which would have been a
still greater loss. Five walking dele
gates in the garb of fishermen were
seen strolling leisurely through the
woods shortly before the fire broke out
and were evidently bent on provi ing
the adage, "Satan finds some mischief
still for idle hands to do" Some of the
parties are known and it would be wise
for them in the future to seek some
other outlet for their too exuberant
spirits as Mr. Pierce will not be likely
to brook another outrage Of this kind.
Mr. Pierce contemplates posting his
premises and forbids fishing from this
date.

THE SUNSHINE OF OUR HOME.
He came to US three months ago.
A little soul so mild,
| Although we loved him as our own,
He was our sisters child
There came day when the little angel,
On the earth no more would roam,
But the house had lost its sunshine
When the Lord had called him home.
Tho Lord has left his body with us
For remembrance we will say.
He left it with us a day or two,
When it was taken away,
Although he's with his mother now
But for us it was sad to part,
With that darling little earth angel
Whom we loved with all our heart,
And it was sad to think when on this earth
we'd see him nevermore.
But he will be there to welcome us wher
we reach the other shore.
