IN THE POLICE COURT.
No Proof That HcCpwan Was Under
 2I, Sheehan Discharged.

The continued cases against John J. sheehan for selling drink to oJames McGowan, a minor, and allowing him to loiter on his premises were taken up in the city court to-day before Judge BurDee. They were continued yesterday to give Prosecutor Pierce time to produce certain decisions which he claimed went to show that it made no difference if McGowan told Sheehan he was of age, Sheehan was still liable The court said he had heard of no such decisions, and this morning MT Pierce read half a dozen decisions which he claimed
 went to support his contention. But before he had gone very far Judge Lowe, counsel for Sheehan. stated what was published in the Democrat yesterday regarding the statement of Edward McGowan. brother Of the mi- nor involved. that he was q last July HnotWit ithsfandine that two years ago he filed an application with the board of safety.for an appointment on the police force, showing thatshe was then 24. Judge Lowe had Assistant City Clerk Reeves on hand this morning with the; proper records on this mat ter. Judge Lowe said that if McCow- an swore falsely before the board of safety he was not beyond committing perjury now for sixty cents. While there was no record of his birth, l11s own statement. sworn to before the board of safety, showed he was Pc
 MT Pierce objected to admitting the record as evidence and then he re- sumed his quotations from the book. Upon his concluding, the court said MT Pierce was orl the wrong track all together There was no direct evi- dence as to the age of the minor, James McGoWaIl. ] What evidence there was, was merely hearsay. His own statement was as admissible as any evidence as to his brothers age, It was the duty of the state to prove the age of the minor beyond question: Tn the courts own mind he thought he knew his age, but there was Iro satisfactory evidence about it. The ell der McGowarl's declaration as to nis brothers age was entirely hearsay and his testimony as to his own sge would ten to shake him on cross ex7 animation. From the appearance of the minor he seemed to be as oh as his brother. There was no proof that AC " as u1OC have to discharge the accused.
 Charles Blinn, living #on the corner of Walnut and Ward streets, and Neal Kundsen, g Bishop street, were each fined $5 for not cleaning off the sidewalk in front of where they live. A similar case against Patrick Dunn. 3O6 Meadow street, was continued for. thirty days. Quinn said he has clean ed off the sidewalk for four years and that he lives in the basement three feet under grounda and that there are four other families in the house. He considered he had done his part Of keeping the sidewalk in proper shape and it was time some of the other ten- ants did theirs. He was told that he would have to clean off the walk or suffer the consequences as the law holds either the owner or the first floor tenant responsible.

NOT so BAD, PERHAPS.
People Who Have Friends in Ireland
 Hear Nothing of Famine.

s It is very probable that the reports concerning alleged distress in certain parts of Ireland aref greatly exagger- ated. Since they were first published a month ago they have been received with good deal of doubt, and there are many people ill Waterbury who will not give any heed to them at all. These people visited the old country during last summer and it is on the basis of what they saw and heard there they form their belief that the reports are either extraYagant or without the slightest foundation
 A property owner on Bishop street is one of those Yesterday she re- ceived a letter dated from the heart of the district said to be suffering from the reported failure of the potato crop. Thesletter was dated December 5, yet there was not a word in it con cerning the reported distress, but on the contrary it told or people taking advantage of what is known there as the land act, by which farmers are en- abled to buy out their landlords with aid given by, the government, and of the gradual disappearance of the old oppressive landlord system. It told especially of one estate known as ''Earlescourt" in RoscommOn county being bought up by the surrounding farmers with great avidity
 The recipient of the letter has reIa- tives, large farmers in the vicinity mentioned, and during her visit there last summer she saw great promises of abundent crops of oats, barley and potatoes. Irelapd does not produce much wheat lately oh account of the rivalry of American flour.
 There is a feeling of doubt prevail ing among those who visited Ireland last summer regarding these reports of distress, and inquiries by such pa pers as the Christian Herald of New York support them in their views. Tn fact Irish papers of recent date do not say very much. about the matter.

 LoCKPoRT. N. r.. Dec. p Fred Jones, a clerk in pgtore at Newfane, shot and killed Mrs. Abbie Goodrich and Constable William c. Gray and then shot himself fatally,

 Gray went to the store where Jones was employed. Jones requested per mission to send for Mrs. Goodrich in order that he might settle the matter with her
 Upon her arrival they had some words, resulting in Jones drawing q re- volver and shooting her in the head. Constable Gray sprang toward Jones, when he also received bullet in the temple. Jones then placed the revolver at his own temple and fired. All three are dead

Steamer Lady Mitchell Has Run the x.>a BIOcknae at Port ,APthuF.
 LONDON, Dec. 22-A Chefu report says that the steamer Lady Mitchell, which sailed from Tsingtao with sup plies, ammunition and dynamite, reach ed Port Arthur during snowBtorrn four nights ago. It is reported that the Japanese were compelled to evacu- ate their position on Etse mountain ow- ing to thanking fire from other forts and the explosion Of Russian mines, from which they lost heavily.
 The Japanese are employing thou sands of ceolies in making strong forts at Dalny and around Port Arthur. They express determination to cap ture Port Arthur before the Chinese New Year. An attack is now preparing that will be on hitherto unequalled scale, and it will mean either succes or terrible disaster to the besiegc B. It Is stated that General Nogi has ask ed for 6o,OOO endorsements from JaA pan.

THE WATERBURY BAR.
Will Hsld DeCidedly InteFessing
 tlaasin6 SatuelayA Afternenn.

President Gillette of the Waterbury Bar association has issued a call for meeting of the fraternity for Saturday afternoon to decide upon who shall be judge and deputy judge of the district court, and to petition the governor to appoint the men of their selection. Judge Burpee is said to be out of th6 race, though some of the lawyers will not believe it. Judge Cowell and his deputy, Peasley, are looking afte1 their fences. Attorney Hunt would not decline nomination for either judge or deputy judge, and Attorney Pierce is out drumming up enthusiasm for him. There are number of things that will be considered in connection with the selection, but partisanshlp, popularity and ability are the main ones. A number of plans are under consideration It is proposed to place both the judge and the deputy judge on the same scale of salary, $3,OOO each It has been suggested to put Judge Cowell in the city court at $2, 900 a year. 1t has been said that At torHey GarmoLly will be selected. and he shah do all the business in the dis trict court and assist in the city court. Another plan is to make Judge Burpee judge and Attorney Carmody assistant Judge on the Sane salary, $0,OUO year, thus taking the firm of Burpe6 and Carmody out Of practice altogeth- CT and removing cause of disqualified. tion which frequently interferes with the business of the court If the SC lection depends upon popularity, At torney Carmody will be the choice The only objection to him is age If abi1. ity, backing and partisanship are the elements to be considered, Judge Bur Dee will be the one if he. wishes but 1t has been said he would not take the plum from Judge Cowell. moreover as Judge CoweIl has only a few years to serve before he shall be disqualified by age. et.
 The meeting will be decidedly iiNer- esting,

SNOW ON SI DIE D | " LKS.
yadg6 Burpss Cave Instructions ts 1
 Get After Property Owners.

Property owners will do we'll to look to their sidewalks for this morning after city court was over Judge Bur pee gave instructions to Prosecutor Meigs to arrest as far as possible all property owners whose sidewalks have not been cleaned off since the last snow storm. The city ordinance on this matter makes the first floor tenant or. the owner liable, but as most of the ordinances are lame and probably not worth the paper they are written on, the city court will make a special effort to have the prop erty owners instead of the tenants keep the walks clear of snow and ice.
 There was a plumbing ordinance in operation until Attorney O'Neill knocked the stuffin's out of it one morning in the city court and. the same is likely to happen the sidewalk ordinance any day. For why shculd tenant keep the walks clear? He doesn't own pebble In it's compost tion. Why should he interfere with 1t, then? It is solely the landlords property and why should the tenant keep it clear of obstruction any more than he should put shingle on the roof if it happened to leak? This is the view some lawyers take of the sidewalk ordinance. They say that as far as possible the property owners should be made to attend to the side walks in winter ag well as in sum mer. Of course, If the owner of a house lives in it his responsibility Is too apparent to be avoided. and if he lives adjacent to it his liability is still the sanae This is the view of the court and on That basis he issued or ders this morning to the prosecutor, to get after the property owners
