John f. Gale and a force of men
have covered 10000 acres. rod by rod,
in their search for Lester j. Stafford
but their work has been to naught.
An interesting question in regard to
the settlement of Stafford's estate has
arisen since his disappearance. At
that time his heirs were an uncle In
Minnesota and an aunt in Readsboro.
Just one week after Stafford disap-
peared his aunt died and the matter
is left as follows. If 1t can be proved
that Stafford died before his aunt
then her two sons receive their
mothers share of the property. II
Stafford outlived his aunt then his
uncle in Minnesota is the only heir.
If no trace of Stafford can be found
of the estate will have
to wait IS years and the question
will then be as obscure as ever.

Sore Threats and Diphtheria.

During the past week two cases OF
diphtheria have been called 20 tne at
tention of Health officer H. L. Water
man. the patients being Mrs. f. n;
spaulding of washington street ana
a man by the name of Berger VINO
lives on Frost place. Neither OF the
eases is of a severe type, but IN view
of the experience of last winter Dr'
II. d. Holton, secretary of the state
board of health, issues the following
warning:
During the past week three per-
sons called at a physicians office IN
this village complaining of sore throat.
on examination he found in the
throat an exudate which was suspl-
cious. Cultures were taken ana sent
to the laboratory; reports receiver
say 'diphtheria.' ~,
we do not want a repetition OF the
experience of last winter. Every per-
son having a sore throat should report
TO their physician and abstain from
intercourse with others until the
character of the disease is determin-
ed. Each person. with their physician,
has the power to prevent an eploeIhlc
of diphtheria. Will you exercise care
in this matter? The law says: III
Won know or suspect Take the pre-
caution, if you have sore throat pc
fore YOU know and while you only
suspect"

choice lunch was served by Mrs. j. Ii.
and Mrs. ]. H. Estey.
A gang of bridge workers from
Mortified, Mass, made things livery
at the local depot Monday afternoon,
and for a short time it looked as II
there was going to be a rough house
involving all the depot employees
from station agent to transfer gang.
There were nine of the bridge men
and each had a slant of about 40 de-
grees. While waiting for the 4: 10 tram
two of the men became involved IN
DISPUTE which led to blows, and fortn :
with the whole gang began to pound
one another. Baggage Master Carey
tried the effect of soothing words on
the bunch and finally succeeded IN
getting them into the smoking car Oh
the New London train when was
standing on the siding. The men re-
manned peaceful for few moments
and then began to fight in real earn

Constable Thayer appeared and led
two of the scrappers off to the lock-
nm. They returned shortly and TOOK

the cooler was pretty well filled. and
Nessrs. Knapp and Thayer decided to
wait until after the departure of the
train before they went down after
the remainder. The five men were
arraigned before Justice Newton
tuesday morning on the charge OF

their names as James Cannon. Tim

their fines and were pretty Wen

FOREST PARK

Big crowds were in attendance at the opening of Forest park yesterday
 "The Policy Players" the colored troupe which had been advertised for many days, failed to put in an appear ance at the last moment and the man. agement was forced to make the the- atrical agencies hustle to get teams here on time for the two performances. Five teams arrived here. Three of them were able to bring along their baggage and they gave a splendid en- tertainment. One other team was nere on time, but the baggage did not arrive and they were introduced to the people present and the matter explained l-e fifth team did not arrive, as it was inn possible for them to get here until it was too late for them to present their act. The management promise that to-day and hereafter there will be no hitch in the entertainment, and every thing advertised will take place. The five teams will work to-day in two per formanees and will also present their acts every day this week. The follow ing are the acts which will be present ed all this week at the afternoon and evening performances: Moreau and Deane in funny comedy act; Pete Le Mar, singing comedian; the three Bar
 retts, in comedy juggling; Max Wilson, black face comedian, and German, Proctor and German, the Kiltie trio.

TO THWART ATWOOD.
Decision Just Resurrected by Att
 torney ThOms.

Attorney Thoms has discovered a decision in the state statutes which he believes will be the means of va eating all of the suits entered for the purpose of thwarting the ends of the redoubtable D. Preston Atwood. MT Thoms will be detrimentally affected by this decision, for he has a client in the same box where Atwood found a great many delinquent administrators.
 The decision he has discovered was given in the case of Eastman vs Cur tiss, volume l. decided in 1915. The statute under which the case was brought provided that the sum of $67 should be awarded the plaintiff in each case of successful prosecution for using a certain kind of net prohibited in fishing in the Housatonic The su- preme court in that case determined that the complainant in the suits brought to frustrate the D. Preston Atwood of that time should have set up that he had jurisdiction in the first cases, while as matter of fact he had not Jurisdiction was in the first complaint and therefore the end less chain of cases that followed the first suit and entered for the sole pur- pose of getting ahead of the first com plainant, were vacated. A great many lawyers take this view of the situation, but great many others take far different view and claim that the second cases will be success full.

ASSESSMENTS co UP.
Catholic Benevolent Legion Follows
 Several Other Organizations.

The ninety to one hundred members who compose the local branch of the Catholic Benevolent legion have each received circular from the supreme council, stating that an increase in it's insurance rates was adopted at the annual meeting held i'll New York the other day, says the New Britain Her ald. The new rates are considered high and practically provide that no matter how long member may have been in the order he must now pay at the rate of his present age. One New Britain member cited local case ill which man carrying $3,00O insurance for about fifteen years must pay under the new rate about $2O a month. A majority of the local branch are well along in years, and like other mem bers of fraternal orders that have ifl- creased their rates recently, the new schedule Is far from being popular The following, which is taken from the circular, explains the new rates;
 .It was further voted that each member between the ages of IS and 60, inclusive, be permitted, if he so desires, to pay one-half of his rate iii cash, the other half being charged against his certificate, he paying in tefest at the, rate of four per cent per lannum upon all such charges, and that as to members above the age 60, they be permitted to pay 8 per cent of the remaining 45 per cent charged against their certificates, they paving interest at the rate of four per
 The following two illustrations will explain the working of the plan. A member entering at the age of 30 in 1889 and now 45 years of age, with certificate for $1.000 may either:
 "First, pay the rate of $1.21 bi- weekly, the same being the rate at his attained age of A, and to remain level throughout life, or
 "Second, pay one-half the rate of S1.21. being 61 cents in cash, per hitting the other 50 cents to be charged against his certificate. he to pay four per cent upon such charges. or
 ''Third, pay the rate of 72 cents, being the rate at his age at admis- sion he paying to the supreme coun- cil the amount of SLIT, the same being the reserve which would have accumulated under his certificate had he paid the correct number of as- sessments from the beginning. or
 Fourth, pay the rate of P cents being the rate at his age on admis= sion, and consent that the amount of the reserve, SLIT. shall stand as q charge against his certificate. he to pay interest on such charge at the rate of four per cent per annum with his assessments. Tn this case the full payment will be aH follows: Assessment. 72 cents interest, 27 cents; total, % cents bi-weekIy."
 Tn the account of the proceedings of the annual meeting of the supreme council, which appeared in the news papers no reference was made to the new rates of insurance.

AT THE JACQUES. There is certainly no lack of variety In the bill that had its opening per- tormances yesterday at inc Jacques, |nd the even excellence of the acts makes it what it has been styled, an hll star show. One can hardly fancy b my phase or feature of vaudeville that is left unsupplied. The Majestic Musical Four have a musical act that bcores as much because of it's comedy Is because of the remarkable skill the four players show on all kinds of in Btruments. All four are comedians as |vell as musicians, and they keep the un moving every minute that they
 bold the stage. Dewitt, Burns and Torrance have a unique novelty en- titled sThe Awakening of Toys"
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-05-31

which is a whole show i'll itself. The two men are great eccentric acrobats and perch equilibrists, doing some work that is sensational as we'll as amusing, and Miss Torrance contrib utes some soubrette work that adds materially to the novelty. Some live ly coon singing and dancing are con- tributed by the Brittons, while Chalk Saunders shows some lightning work with the crayon. The all star show is added to by the Jack Theo Trio, Miss Daisy Dumont, Mcdonald and Huntington, and the electrograph. Prices are 01, 20 and 30 cents; after moons 10 and 20 cents, ladies 10.
