visit as an evidence of the great ad- vance by this system over the older and ordinary methods.
 The Atterbury system gives all the care and detail of custom tailoring to ready-for-service garments. Every coat, waistcoat, etc, is cut singly by hand and hand finished. The fabrics are both imported and domestic; but, in both cases, they are exclusive in pat tern. etc. This is only to be found among the highest grade custom tail- ors and in Atterbury system clothes. The Things and trimmings are of the very highest grade::. but the garments sell for aboutlone-haf the price of good merchant tailored products and are made in precisely the same way. The wonderful organization of the Alter bury system tailors is the only reason that permits the garment to be sold at the quoted prices. It is as if great number of the custom tailors pooled their business and in that way reduced the manufacturing cost.
 Customers are generally anxious about two points: wear and style. Alt terbury system garments wear full as long as custom tailored clothes, and they never wear out of shape. The most expensive designers are constant ly producing the. best ideas in men S garments for Atterbury system clothes. These garments are graceful in drape as well as cut; and, being hand finished retain all their grace and style. Extra generous outlets, so that it is possible to give a fit to any figure is matter of much importance only found in At- terbury system clothes.
 The Atterbury System clothes will be sold in New Haven, the new clothing department which will be opened on Friday, by M H. Lambert S O., S54 Chapel street, q shop which has for years had all enviable reputation as sending forth 8 satisfactory output in every line of mems goods which it handles.

Decision of Federal Supreme Court on
 New York's Bakeries Law.
 Washington, April H.-In an opinion by Justice Packham the supreme court of the United States to-day held to be unconstitutional the New York state law making ten hours days work and sixty hours a weeks work in bakeries in that state. Justices Harlan, White, Day and Holmes dissented, and Justice Harlan declared that no more import ant decision had been rendered in the last century. -'
 The opinion was handed down in the case of Lockner vs. the state of New York, and was based on the ground that the law interferes with the free exercise Of the rights of contract be- tween individuals The court of ap- peals of the state upheld the law and affirmed the Judgment of the trial court, holding Lockner guilty. Judge Parker wrote the opinion of the New York court of appealsss supporting the law, and the court divided, four to three, on i the question ofgyalidity.

NEW SPRING STYLES.
GRaYS THE CORRECT THING
 THIS SEASON.
A System Perfected for Making Mems Clothes as They Are Made by Best Custom Tailors---Called the Atterbury System--M. H. Lambert s& Co. to Sell These Clothes.

i
 Some English tailors have tried to father dull green as the fashionable tone for spring clothes for men. The hest dressed English men-leaders of fashion have decreed against 1t; and the campaign of English cloth weavers in American papers has fallen fiat.
 There has really been change to what is almost the other extreme, and the various shades of gray are an- nounced as being quite the correct thing in color. These grays-both im- ported and domestic--have in many cases, delicate overcheck which gives an individuality to the garments and a relief from a dullness inseparable from solidity of tone The more prom inent custom tailors and the makers of high grade, ready-for-service clothes have made much change in the cut of mems spring clothing. Coats are wider in the back and much longer; higher in the waist line, rounded in the shoul- < ders and have broader lapels and much longer lape1s. Coats are almost uni formly vented in the middle of the back at the bottom. Waistcoats are cut open much lower, and trousers are fairly full at the hips, and slope down from the knee to the instep. Linings are nearly the same tone as the fabrics, and there is no attempt to offer contrasts in color between fabrics and trimmings.
 Three buttons are used for single and double breasted sack suits as well as for frock and walking coats. These two last garments have skirts reaching full Iy down to the knee and are cut full.
 It's an era of good form and quiet ele- gance and the smart appearance is gained from exquisite hand tailoring. Few custom tailors get this look, and the number of makers of ready-for-ser- vice clothes who have attained this end may be counted on one thumb.
 A system has been perfected for mak- ing mems clothes precisely as they are made by the best custom tailors with the result that men may now get that are practically merchant-tailor gar r1ents at about one-half what Fifth avenue tailors charge. This is the At- terbury system of clothes building: by which every garment is cut singly by hand and hand tailored. The shops are at 110-112 Fifth avenue, and are worth

FIRE IN NEW MILFORD.
Young's Hotel and Other Structures
 Destroyed-s2 900 Damage. \

Destroyed-s2O,0O0 900 Damage. > New Milford, April 19.-Fire which started in a shed in the rear of Young,s hotel on Railroad street here early this morning caused the biggest loss since the big fire which cleaned out the bus mess section of the town. The loss is estimated at $20,000 and is about half covered by insurance.
 T Young, proprietor of the hotel, states that mattress which caught fire in one of the hotel rooms was thrown out into the yard back of the building, where it was supposed it had been extinguished. This was about lniGright. Shortly before o'clock fire was discovered in the shed, which is used as store house. The blaze spread rapidly and soon communicated to the feed store house and other wooden buildings of Ackley, Hatch & Marsh, general storekeepers. From these build ings the fire spread to the livery stable of William H. Keeler on Bridge street, which was gutted and practically de- stroyed.
 The f1remen managed to check the fire here and the main store of Ackley, Hatch & Marsh on the corner of Rail- road and Bridge streets was saved. This was one. of the few buildings which went through the big fire a few years ago. 1T
 ] MT. Young's loss on the ,notei out buildings and his stable, which was damaged was $2,10o. Ackley. Hatch & Marsh lost buildings vaued at $3,00O and feed vaued at about $70O0, which had recently been put in. ,.e, D.. [,
 Keelers stable. which was owned by Ackley Hatch & Marsh. was destroyed. It was valued at $2,000. MT. Keeler saved his horses and harness, but lost s2,000 worth of carriages and wagons and feed valued at $4,O00 No damage was done to the hotel except the break ing of some of the glass owing to the 1 heat. .~.

As TO Hero Worship.

Some one has said; that one
proof of the rapid advancement
of civilization is the fact that the
appreciation of the benefited
catches up with its benefactor.
Whereas in decades passed,
the hero was only recognized
after his death, that now while
the "life blood flows warm in the
veins" the hero is the recipient
of the love and gratitude of the
world to greater or less degree.

firing from the Office of president
of the National American Woman

Baraccas aud Phialhins Slelgh. Ride.

AS sleighing parties were "all
the go" the past two weeks, the
Baracca boys Of the Baptist Sun
day school decided that last Fri
day night would be the time for
a sleighing party.
So to use an old time phrase,
"a coach and six were ordered"
with all the bells and other
musical" instruments thrown
in, except the coach had runners
instead of wheels.
The Phiatheas were invited,
and about eight of the boys, and
thirteen of the girls accompanied
by their teacher, Mrs. Kimber-
ling, drove to Ed. Sims, about
six miles east of town, for an
oyster supper.
One OF the boys attached a
small bobsled onto the big sled,
which caused considerable fun
and quite bit of walking.
Upon arriving at Mr.. Sims, it
was discovered that the boys had
forgotten to order crackers and
the supper was put off until the
party returned to the home of
their teacher and procured crack
ers, where, after quite bit of
stewing the "stew" was made
and enjoyed. The members were
delivered at their several homes,
