Senator Hawley's Career.

Grafton AS lawyer and newspaper editor
he evinced those qualities for forceful and
candid expression for which he was known
after he entered the realm of statesman
ship. The promptness and determination
that characterized him through life was
shown in his promptness in espousing the
cause of abolition when it meant much to
be known as an advocate of the abolition
of slavery.
When the war broke out in 1861 he was
the first man to enlist in the service of the
Union from Connecticut, and threw all his
for the war. His military service was con-
spicuous, and it gave him such standing in
military circles that throughout his con-
gressional career he exerted great influ-
ence on the course of the government in
the maintenance of the army and navy or
CARNATIONS. He could justly have claimed
a large share of credit for the upbuilding
Of the navy until it reached the standard
that made it equal to the task of demolish-
ing the Spanish fleets. 1t was Senator
Hawley who in 1856 sent out letters to
leading men in Connecticut to meet in his
office for the organization of the republican
party r. that state, and from that time I'M
til his death he was answering in his de-
Votion to the principles of his party.
Indeed the most prominent trait mani
tested by Senator Hawley was his unswerv-
ing devotion to the principles that guided
him throughout life. He was always ready
to fight for his convictions The habit of
the soldier chung to him. Throughout his
sena torial career he was respected because
of his rugged honesty and because every
one knew just where he stood on any pub
lie measure that came before the Senate.
He was a stanch advocate of all the inter
ests of his state, and no one could be more
energetic than ne in urging measures which
be believed would rebound to the good of

 the Aged.

Hans Ablehanson, the wealthiest tramp in America, who several years ago lived at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York, at the expense of a western rail- road magnate, as result of wager that Hans could not walk from Tacoma to Panama in eight months, is to build a home for aged tramps.

 Hans recently disclosed his intention to his friend Peter Johnson, of Wor- cester, Mass. The other day Johnson was in New York, and, while talking about Hans project. said:
 ''It sounds like the dream of a crazy man, but Hans declares that he will build the tramps' home with his money. He says that he will build his home somewhere in New England. I asked him why he didn't take his money and settle down and he said it is much more fun to be a tramp.
 "He said that the only thing he wanted to get out of his money is home to live in when he gets too old to catch freights. so long as he had to build himself a home, he declared that he might as well build ono large enough for 25 or 30 of his friends. He told me that he knew 5000 tramps on the road in the United States. Some of these friends of his. he ex- plained, are getting old and stiff and cannot tramn much lonper
 "He plans to put all of his money in this home for his friends. After it is built. he argues that by little work, such as broom making or mending chairs or something of that kind, the 25 tramps who reside within can pay running ex- penses. When asked him how soon he Is going to build this home he said that he is looking for suitable place, and that as soon as he finds one he will take his money out of the bank and build"

RALPH DAVIS
 NOT GUILTY.
Says Jury in Embezzlement Charges at Malvern Last
 Saturday.

Malvern, Feb. 12. The jury in the case of the state vs. Ralph Davis, Memphis attorney who was charged with embedding $10, 800 in connection with frauds of the noted foot-racing gang at Hot Springs, which has been on trial here for the past two days, returned a verdict of not guilty this morning, after being out one hour and fifteen minutes. ! When the verdict was announc- ed the defendant and his aged father were much affected and after the jury had been dis charged they sought out the jurors and thanked them for the verdict. The concensus of opin- ion is that the evidence did not warrant a conviction.
 The case of the state versus Ralph Davis, charged with per- jury in certain trial at Hot Springs in connection with the notorious foot-race cases, and which was brought to Malvern on a change of venue, was nolle pressed on motion of the prose cutting attorney this morning im- mediately after the verdict of acquittal was rendered by the jury in the embezzlement case.
 This ends the litigation in this court of all the cases growing out of the famous fake foot-race scheme.

LAST, BUT NOT LEAST.

What we hope to chronicle as the last blizzard of this very se- were winter and certainly the worst of the year, swept. clown upon us Saturday night, Sunday and Sunday night, reaching the limit of it's perversity about z o'clock Monday morning, when our shivering thermometers, un- acclimated to such storms of cold, sought refuge and retreat from winters merciless eyes in the little bulbs attached as hiding places for the sensitive mercury.
 The result was 4 below; old man Zero was not in it, and though he might previously have thought he could ever hold first rank as a cold hearted monster in this cline, his ambitions and

 O'Rourke is going into the manufac- turing of pneumatic tubes and says he has had enough of hotel life. He says the police have persecuted him by raid ing the place. His friends believe he will soon wander back to the business again.
 The hotel has been a center for sports for six years. or ever since the promoter of pugilism has been an at. traction there.
 O'Rourke's tribulations began when an all night license was refused him. A few weeks ago the police visited the rafhskeller and battered down the doors The sidewalk legislation-s-no lettering z-was then eiiN reed and URourke gave up in disgust. believing they were bound to do him anyway.

WRESTLING. LAST CALL
 TO GRAPPLERS
Preliminaries Must All Be Settled Ky "Wednesday Night Or Out of Town Men Will Meet.

George Gresham called at the Dem- ocrat office last night and made the following statement: If Dick Owens will not wrestle me at the big match at 122 pounds, will meet Jack Bren- nan, but will not wrestle for side bet unless the match is to finish.' That point is now definitely settled and the management feels that there has been so much haggling over the prelim- inaries that everything must be settled up by Wednesday night at the furthest, as the cards will be issued on Thursday. To that end the last propo- sition is made to the wrestlers for ac- ceptance in the p reliminaries. If Gresham and Owens or Gresham and Brennan want the first preliminary they can have 1t by making application right now. If Kelly and Roach or Roach and Pickett or Pickett and Gro nan or Burphy and Speh. or any other two wrestlers want the second prelim- mary they can have it by making ap- p!ication at once. If the preliminaries are not settled among the wrestlers themselves by Wednesday, night the management will put a Bridgeporter and New Havener together for one preliminary and New Britain grap- pier and a Hartford man for the other

DUFFY ON WAY TO ENGLAND.
American Sprinter, With Shrubb,
 Leaves Australia.


 According to the latest patch of Aus tralian sporting papers to reach here, Arthur F. Duffy is now on his way to England, where he will compete ill the championships at Stamford Bridge on July 1. To judge from the reports O. Duffy's closing contests in Australia, he did not have matters all his own way. At St Luke's park oval, near Sydney, he ran dead heat with Nigel Baker of Sydney university in the 100 yards, the time being 10 seconds. Baker led until close to the finish. when Duffy fairly hurled himself against the worsted and the race was declared a dead heat. Duffy qualified in the sev- enty-five yard handicap, but did not start in the final, which was won by Baker, who was on scratch, his time being 4-5 seconds.
 At the Sydney Cricket club sports on April 22 Duffy was competitor in the international 100 yards, with Baker and Stanley Rowley as opponents. A second or two after the men were told to .'get set" Duffy started and beat the pistol. Rowley did not move and Baker ran fifteen yards and then stopped. but Duffy finished the race. The starter recalled the men. which is according to the Australian A. A. T.. rules. but Duffy refused to run and Rowley and Baker said they did not care for contest as long as Duffy was out. There was much evidence of dis approval from the spectators. The same trio met in the sixty yard run and each won a heat. but Duffy beat the Australians by two yards in 6 2-5 seconds. which equals the worlds rec ord.
 Duffy's first appearance in Sydney was signalized by a brace of defeats. He met Baker in the special loo yards. and the latter won by six inches in 10 1-5 seconds. In the seventy-fve yard handicap Duffy failed to qualify in his heat.
 Alfred Shrubb improved in health toward the end of the tour and made clean sweep of everything from a mile to five. He is on his way home with Duffy.
