Mr.. Rothesay;sI ask you to take me
there tonight. Will you do it,"
Burt's heart beat more and more
triumphantly.
.And if you find l spoke the truth"
he began.
Kate dared not raise her eyes as she
said:
"Wait. Let me see her first"
Burt only stayed long enough to ar
range the time when they should start,
and then he hurried away, saying to
himself:
.sThey must always refuse first
these women. Now, I think she'll say
yes before l am t%wenty-four hours old
.er. That woman is there, and Kate
must see, her. She can hardly keep
her respect for Rothesay after that.
Yes, Caryl has helped me in my suit,
but in a very different way from what
he said he would. He would have done
his best to checkmate me; it is q very
lucky thing all round that he was
killed. And his sister, wonder if l
shall ever see Julia Caryl again."
His thoughts went back, not UNI
pleasantly, to that time when they had
ridden together-he remembered the
kiss he had taken. Yes, though he
was in love with Kate Purcell, he con
fessed he would not object to flirting
a little more with Julia Caryl.

WORK AT ST CECILIA's
Stopped for Time Yesterday On q
 Slight Misunderstanding.


 There was slight hitch in the prog ress of the work on St Cecilia's church rectory yesterday. Owing to some misunderstanding the building inspec- tor was not in possession of the plans when the work was started and conse- quently no permit was issued. MT Chatfeld called around yesterday and ordered the men to quit until further orders. To-day it was shown to be an oversight on the part of the architect and the difference was adjusted and operations resumed. A great many misinterpret the meaning of the ordi- nance on this point. although it is plain enough Tn brief, the ordinance provides that before work is com menced upon any building the owner or his agent shall submit plans of said building and that nothing shall be done on it until the plans have been ap- proved and permission to build grant ed. From this it is plainly the duty of the owner or his agent to file the plans and get the permit; but this must not be understood as conveying the idea that the contractor does not make him. self liable when he goes ahead with out knowing that the permit has been obtained, so that it behooyes the build CT as well as the owner to make sure that the law has been comdlied with. Another prolific source of trouble for the building inspector is the shingllng of frame buildings contrary to the or dinance He said to-day that he has been trying to get along without bring ing people into the courts, but he knew he would not be able to carry things on that way much longer. He thought 1t a hardship to compel man to put on a fire-proof roof on building that was not designed for it. but the law was there and it was his business to see that it was lived up to.

HERE'S ANOTHER FLAW.
Amended Statute Omdts Reference to
 Persons Found in Saloons Illegally


 Ansonia, Nov 1.-The discovery in the city court that the provision in Section 2,701 of the revised statutes, concerning persons found in saloons during unlawful hours has been entirely omitted in the amended act of 1903 has attracted general interest and comments are many. Some Of the lawyers are inclined to think the omis- sion is due to an error of the printer and believe that when the matter is looked up 1t will be found that this provision of the law has been retained.
 The two editions of the public acts issued after the legislature adjourned, make no mention of persons found in saloons after legal hours, and the IA words covering the matter are entirely missing.
 Prosecuting Liquor Agent Ford said he would communicate with the state secretary and get certified copy of the law as it passed the general as- sembly. Upon the information re- ceived will depend the action to be ta- ken by the prosecutor in similar eases in the future, and if the law as printed is correct, conviction of persons found in saloons during unlawful hours will be hard to secure, unless it can be shown that liquor was purchased.
 The cases of the two men found leaving Sobeleskis saloon Sunday morning hinged on this point, and as the court had to take the law as it found 1t, the men were discharged.
 A number. of cases have been brought in different parts of the state since the amended law went into eff feet, August 1, and as far as known no questions were raised. 1t was not known until Attorney Holden discoV' cred Monday that the provision relat- ing to persons found in saloons had been omitted The IA words covering the matter were sandwiched in the middle of the revised statute, and this leads some to believe that the printer made mistake and left loophole in the printed law through which two men, at least, crawled.

Real Estate and Rents

 | am getting so that good bargains in real estate don't phase me a parti- cle. When I first started in business, if man gave me house to sell that paid 10 Der cent on the purchase price l thought had young gold mine Now it is getting so that hardly ever offer anything that does not pay 10 per cent on the purchase price and two weeks ago I advertised a house that paid almost 20 per cent. Of course I sold it in a couple of days This all goes to show that if you need the ser vices of a real eseate man, either to buy or to sell, am the one you should deal with for simple reason that I can give you more for your money than anyone in town. Perhaps you don't know me, or my business methods, but after we have had dealings together I am willing to guarantee that you will come to me again. You, wouldn't do this unless you were certain that T was worthy of your confidence am not batting myself on the back, I am simply telling you the truth which you can find out for yourself by dealing through my real estate office.

QUESTION OF BUTTER.
Different Opinieas as to Whether Ii
 Should Be Furnished to Poor.

Dlu0TGuI OplnlGlS as 10 " NneLner IL
 Should Be Furnished to Poor.
 The question as to whether or not the public should furnish butter for the inmates at the Brookside home is one people look at in different ways, some claiming that they are used as well here as the poor of any other town in the state are and others doubt ing it. One man said he believed that he thought there was no reason to find fault about the bill of fare at the Brookside home, but that he believed the city could afford to do a little bet ter for struggling people who are en- deavor1ng to do something toward maintaining themselves outside the in- stitution. "A widow he said, with a small family, an old lady or an elder ly man, who can earn a little and is willing to do it without throwing them selves entirely upon the public, should receive as much consideration as pos sible, because by keeping them o,,t of the home there is a show that they may be able to care for themselves but once you send them to the Brook side home and give them a taste of idleness. of reasonably decent food. then you can make up your mind that the city has them on it's hands as long as they live. know men who have been at the Brookside home for years who are well able to earn their own living and we have lots of people about town who would be glad to give them food, clothing and place to sleep for doing chores, but they won't accept such offers. The same thing is true of women. A close listed policy to- wards worthy women who have an ambition 10 do all they can to maintain themselves often results in forcing them to go to the home. and after they break up the kind of homes they had and spend season at the home. they rarely ever consent to go out among their friends again. You see, it wounds the pride of some people to tell them that they are not able to do anything. and they immediately want to get from under the public eye. L don't know what to say with reference to the but ter question, but am free to state that I can look back to the time when we didn't have butter at every meal on our own table and we never thought of going to the town to look for it. I know a crust of dry bread doesn't taste. palatable to old folks, who probably haven't tooth in their heads. but if that is the best the city can do I see no remedy It might be well to keep this before the pIrhlic. 1t may prove salutary lesson to the youth of to-day and prompt them to make some provision for the day when they will be past their labor. so that they may not be dependent upon the cold hand of charity. It Is a pity so few give any thought to the future. don't believe In preaching economy to old folks you are obliged to ask for bread, because too many of them paul. perized themselves in an effort to keep worthless husbands and reckless chil-, dren. What I'm trying to get at is that our young people don't know the value of money and many of them are brought up without being taught the art of saving"
