A FOOD INSPECTOR.
Appointment Will be Made by Board
 Un6er New Order.

The amendments to the charter which the aldermen have agreed upon unanimously put the county health of hcer outside the town boundary of Waterbury and leave the local author ities the sole judges of what shall be done to maintain a high state of sani- tation. The new order of things will put the health board in d position to abate a nuisance and charge the eX- pense up to the owner of the property on which it exists, but this will not be resorted to unless property owners ne Slect to comply with an order of the board beyond a reasonable time. Pro vision is also made for the appoint mept of a food health officer. d sani tary inspector, a milk and food inspec- tor, and such other agents and cm- ploycs as the board of aldermen may. from time to time designate and pre- scribe. The act takes effect upon it's passage, so that if it goes through the general assembly all right the next milk inspector will be appointed by the board instead of by the mayor. It is quite likely that the milk inspcc- tor will also have charge of the in- spection of food and get 8 salary which will pay him to devote his en- tire time to the work All the other charter amendments. with the eXcep- ton of the che dealing with the meth cd of filing liens for public improve ments, were approved by strict party votes. but probably nothing will be said about that when they come be- fore the legislators at Hartford.

THE DISTRICT COURT.
Number of Bills Aimed at 1t Filed
 With the Clerk.

The poor old district court is begin. ming to get its usual dose of hard knocks whenever the legislature is ill session. Quite d number of bills have been filed with the clerk of the lower court aiming at it in one way and an other. The bill drawn Up by Attorney Hayes and mentioned in the Democrat yesterday as of great importance to small property owners, will, if passed, take considerable business away from the district court. and on top of that Attorney Kellogg has drawn up an other one which will take more blsi- ness away from it.
 Mir Kellogg's bill provides that in cases where the issue involves not more than $500 the attorneys can by agreement have such cases transferred to the superior court within thirty days of the return date to the district court If this bill is passed by the legislature all such cases now pending ill the district court shall be trans ferred to the superior court. This will leave the district courts docket almost empty and crowd the superior courts.
 As sure as the legislature sits. some one never fails to file bill annihilat- ing the district court altogether, and this mysterious some one is said to be Attorney Bronson So far this bill has not been filed this session, but there is time enough to do so.

 Her Fathers Treatment.

Colorado Springs. Col, Feb 1.-AIrs ]. A. Hayes. daughter of Jefferson Davis. said yesterday: If Mr Lin coin had lived my father would never have been subjected to the treatment hc received at the hands of General Miles.

 Mrs Hayes then quoted from the book written by her mother. in which the widow of Jefferson Davis tells the story nf her husband's imprisonment. Mrs Hayes waxed indignant when she told of th, manacles placed on her father.
 Hi required six men to overpOwcr him." said Mrs Hayes. 'and he asked that he bc shot before bcing subjected to such an iDdignily. These irons were placed upon him at the instigation of General Miles. General Miles insultcd my mother and my father. feeble and cmaciated as h. was. shook the iron -ratings of his cell and said to Miles. If I could get at you. would tear you limb from limb.
