Evidently MT. lnternoscfa is 8 very methodical man in his love affairs, for his statement of the case contains ex- tracts not alone from the letters which Miss BoneIli wrote to him, but also from those which he wrote to Miss Bonelli. Miss Bonelh, 1t would appear, did not think-this in response to his offer of marriage that her love was as great for him as his love for her, ''but am very grateful" she adds, flor the great love you show me, and trust that will be able to return love as great"
 MT Internoscia did not look upon that as discouraging. He continued to press his suit with such good results that on August g, 1902, he became formally be- trothed. At that time it was under stood that the marriage would take place in July, 1904.
 Having become, as he thought, satis- factorily engaged, MT. Internoscia says that he did not think any more of looking for some suitable lady who would marry him shortly, as plain tiff would have wished, but kept him. self away from society, deeming himself GlShBOQ, ana COHLAuuSQ CO Sp0QQ MS time and his money for defendants daughter, as he felt practically bound to do 1t, In view of all that had hap pened."
 The breaking up of tke engagement, MT. Internoscia asserts, was due to re- Mgion. Miss Bonelli was like her father, an Anglican. MT. Internoscia was a prashvterian Rut MT Tpfaru oscio much against Mir Bonellis wish, as- serted that he was perfectly willing his wife should entertain whatever re- ligious opinions she chose. The whole fault of the final disruption, which took place last January, he planes on MT. Bonellis town conduct and stubborn ness" and asserts that "the plaintiff has a legal claim to recover from defend ant all damages which the former suf- fered through the fault of defendants s minor child as we'll as through defend ants own fault

WATERFOWL JOTTINGS

The town Saturday experienced, for a few minutes, one of the severest southeast storms in several years. All day clouds were in the sky, but most of the people expected to have 1t clear. Towards 6 o'clock rain commenced to fall lightly but pedestrians who hap pened to be out in the shower did not think much of the rain until 1t com. menced to come down in torrents. Al though 1t did not last for more than an hour considerable damage was done to roads, especially those on which re- pairing is going on.
 The base ball games scheduled for Saturday were all postponed.
 Mrs George Neery, who has been visiting friends in New London, re~ turned home Saturday.

SUES GlnAo FApHEE.
UNIQUE DAMAGE CASE PILED IN
 MONTREAL COURT.
Rejected Lover Wants $2,326. .4e from Chosen Father-in-Law for Breach of PIomise-His Charges
 for Counting.

From Montreal, Canada, core spondent writes of the New York World of unique law suit. It does not often happen, he says, that a man is called upon to sue for breach of promise ot marriage the man he once hoped to make his father-tn-law. Yet that Is what the action taken in the superior court by Jerome Internoscia, advocate of Montreal, against Vincent Bonelli, of Vicksburg, Miss, amounts to.
 MT. Internoscia is not repining All though he is not to marry the young woman who occupied his time and thoughts for two years, he will never theless take wife on August25. Indeed, Mir. Internoscia says that the young lady whom he now hopes to make his wife was highly incensed when his for mer matrimonial intentions became pub lie property, but MT. Internoscia, having weathered that storm, will now prose cute the action to the end.
 T am not called upon to educate oth- CT peoples children" says MT. Inter- noscia, and want to recover from her father the amount of money I spent upon Miss Bonell"
 That amount MT. Internoscia sets at $2.325.49. Discussing the case, MT. Inter noscia observed that 1t might look fool ish for him to sue for the odd cents, but he expects to be asked for a bill of particulars. It was necessary for him to put down all the items he could re- member. Notwithstanding good mem ory, MT. Internoscia Is of the opinion that be stands to lose money, even if he wins his case. 3.
 In MT. Internoscia's account there are many minor items, but the main one, aside from the monies spent upon tui- ton. is thus stated: '"The sixth part of the account gives the amount of time which the plaintiff can prove he has spent for the defendants daughter, and for such time, taking into consider iation the plaintiffs position as pro- fessional man, two dollars per hour is the least that can be charged, and plaintiffs time is worth two dollars per

The late Samuel M. Jones, the golden rule mayor of Toledo, was once discuss ing, in political address, awkward mo. ments, says the Cincinnati Enquirer.
 "The most awkward moment know of, he said, smiling, "came in the expe. rience of worthy old Presbyterian min. ister of Columbus. I have heard this minister describe the moment more than once, and am sure it must have been very awkward, indeed.
 Tt seems that the old gentleman dineo with brother clergyman in the country. and after dinner walked in the garden with his host till rather late. The host, finall, asked him to stay all night and he consented.
 They went back to the house together to arrange about the spare chamber and so on, and afterward they took another turn about the garden.
 = We'll said the host, at last, suppose we turn in. Wonder is the hallway. Just go in there and hang up your hat and wait for me. want to speak to the gar dener and I'll join you in mfnute.'
 So the guest, alone, entered the hall He groped his way, for it was very dark, By the door stood the wife of his host She mistook him for her husband in the gloom, and taking up huge Bible from the table she brought 1t down across his shoulders with a whack.
 'There,' she said, take that for ask ing that ugly wretch to stay all night. ,.
