IN THE POLICE COURT.
Case for Assault Heard, Man Bound
 Over Under $500 Bond.

The oft adjourned case against Rocco Famigletti of West Main street for assaulting Mrs Marie Perello. also of West Main street, was tried by Judge Burpee in the city court to-day. 1t may turn out to be q more serious affair than it was first looked to be. The trouble began over store at 506 West Main street, which Mrs Perello sold to the accused for $450 with the understanding, it was said, that sue should not re-enter business on that street. A few months ago she vio- lated that contract, according to the evidence, by opening another store at 409 West Main street. 1t was also in the agreement that the accused should not sell the store.
 Fanligletti claimed he was stuck in the bargain and that several times he tried to induce Mrs Perello to buy the store back instead of opening an other store; but this she would not do. She not only rejected his overture with scorn, but told him that was the way fools were dealt with.
 The assault took place on Sunday morning, October %, as the woman was sweeping the sidewalk in front of her store. She is widow with five children. Her brother-in-law runs as store a few doors west of hers and she has two or three young men as nephews.
 A week before the assault, Flami- getti got buyer for his store and he wanted Mrs Perello to allow him to sell out. She refused to do so. On the Sunday morning in question he made the final overture and finding her still obdurate, he returned to his store, got boys baseball bat, and going up behind Mrs Perello as she was sweeping the sidewalk he struck | her three blows on the head. The I first blow was struck with one hand on the bat. the second was delivered I with the strength of both hands, the l third blow the bat broke, the woman staggered against the house nearby l and Famigletti ran away.
 ! He was captured by the woman's ! nephews before he ran very far. Mrs Perello testified that he said he would { kill her anyway. Nine stitches were i put in her wounds.

THE NATIONAL GUARD.
Adjutant General Cole Says it Is Now
 What its Name Implies.

Adiutant- General Cole, fin speaking of the Connecticut National Guard, said:
 Although not a new factor. that body is quite different from what 1t was five years ago, in that 1t is reor. ganized under federal law and con forms in it's makeup, armament, equipment and drill to the require ments of the regular army, and 1t 1s maintained in measure by the gen, eral government.
 to yield something in return and It does in holding itself in readiness to be a part of the eountry's defense in case of need and to be able to take the field armed and equipped for service. This is required of the National Guard of every state. and while COnnecticut's troops have always been well equipped for such service, other states have not been so we'll conditioned.
 .eThe national military law has had the effect of bringing the National Guard of all the states up to more efficient standard and of making is what it's name indicates, a real na- tional guard, instead of state militia.
 saTo maintain an efficiency in keep. ing with the standard of the regular army more is requireH of the enlisted men in the way of thorough drilling ih all that pertains to the school Of the soldier
 Much more is required of the offi- cers than heretofore in the study of military matters, or they will suffer sadly in comparison with the regular army officers when called upon to take command of the troops along with them.
 There is very little lacking to make the armament of the Connectf- cut National guard well nigh perfect. It's infantry is equipped with the Krag-Jorgensen rife, which is splen- did gun. Some time, when the regu- lar army is supplied with the new rifle, the national guard will also De equipped in the same manner but that will not be for some years to come, perhaps.
 The light artillery will soon be sup piled with new three-inch guns. This I think, will be matter of only a few months. as it is the intention of the general government to furnish them as soon as the regular batteries are supplied
 .s,The heavy or coast artillery Is or ganized to serve the heavy guns locat- ed in United States forts and the two companies of this branch are located at New London. where they have fire auent opportunities to drill with the heavy guns. 1t is tue desire of the general government to increase the size and efficiency of this branch of the National guard. in keeping with the general plan of coast defense.
 "The recent reorganization of the infantry of the Connecticut National guard into three regiments is in nro- portion to the size of and population of the state and this is likely to re main the number of regiments to be maintained for some years to come"

The Voters Choice.

ln the nation. cratic party.
 If the Republican wished to be fair and just, why did it not put on the column after the name of Judge Par ker the following, who are known and honored the country over and who have been most active in the support of the democratic nominee: Cleveland, Olney, Lamont, Gray, Cockrill, Nor gan, Adams. Towne, Lindsay, John Sharp Williams, Teller and "a host ot the purest and most upright men in the nation.
 If the Republican wished for list of men in its own party to offset the democratic it gave, it might have pre- scented the following: Tom Platt, Odell, Quigg. J. F. Morgan, Lou Payne, Coxe. Penrose. Coxey, Addicks, Heath, Shoot and several others that could be named.
 The fact is that there are honest and upright men in each party as we'll as men who are out for all they can get. The paper and speaker that plays fair is the one that commands the most re- spect and does his party the most good.-Litchfield Enquirer.

 partisans.

The republican orators and organs have been very bitter ill their attacks upon Judge Parker for what he has had to say about President Roosevelt, Cortelyou and the trusts. They say he has not played fair and honest, ana the same charge has been made against other democratic candidates and speakers. A very marked illus tration of this bitterness is found i'll the editorial page of Mondays Water bury Republican. After all that paper has had to say about democratic un- fairness we should expect that it would at leaG be consistent, but it evidently does not believe in practicing what it breaches, as will be seen from the fok lnWinU.

Do you recall how spent the last of my pin money to attend reception that the club arranged for a certain hero?
 "Well, the week before last was coming up from Palm Beach. On the train was a hero who had withstood a dozen hostile fires at Santiago. He had a toothache, a simple little toothache, and he bel. lowed like calf. l thought of the Ave teeth that l had pulled out in one afternoon without gas and asked myself if the man was real. ly brave. 1 decided that q hero must have a toothache such as the ordinary mortal never dreamed of.
 "One of the train hands who sympathized with the hero said The best thing for toothache is whisky. If I had one I'd fill up'-- and he did. I mean my hero, that was, did. Don't talk to me in flu. ture of hero worship. Facing death may be one thing, but I'd rather face death than be afraid of a toOthache. Have a bon bon !"
