IN AND ABOUT THE COURTS
JUDGE BENNETT DECIDES THAT

Estate of John r.. Rick's-Quigley Case
VIII Come Before the City Court
This MOrning-Judge Tyner Threat

fore the City Court.
According to the decision rendered by
Judge William L. Bennett in the COM
mon pleas court yesterday, William P.
Thomas, as administrator, and the heirs
of the estate of George Y. Smith, of
Milford, own the land that has been in
dispute at Milford Point for several
years, and which, while the case has
been in litigation, has grown over 700
feet since the trouble began.
The land in question is a sort of PEN
insula formed by the waters of the
Housatonic and Long Island sound. 1t
was claimed by the late Mr.. Thomas,
After his death squatters have been
going to the land, erecting houses and

the administrator to get out. They
claimed that the claimants to the land
were squatters themselves.
Then Mr.. Thomas brought suit in the
common pleas court to recover the
land, making Emily Leayenworth ct al,
John Fl. Young, Charles A, Goodrich,
Edmund S. Tolles, McFarlane and De-
Wolf and Frederick C. Bailey, the de-
PENDANTS in the action. He alleged that
the Thomas estate had a title to the
land dating back almost to the dis
covery of the land. The case has been
tried in the court for several days, and
yesterday morning Judge Bennett de-
cided that the land belonged to the
Thomas estate and gave a judgment to
recover with damages of 81 and cost in
each of the cases.
Through the action of the Housatonic
river flowing on one side and the sound
on the other. sand has been thrown UP
on the beach, which has accumulated
so that the land is now 700 feet larger
than it was five years ago.

WHEN POETRY SHALL LIVE
AGAIN

WHEN POETRY SHALL LIVE
AGAIN.
Ills said that poetry Is dead
l wonder not at such true thought.
IT'S untoward sign that sure declay
In nations life being wrought.
Ills sad but true the loom of life
Weayes gems of splendid tapestries,
That shine undlmmed through cen
turtles
And seeming mock our sophistries.
Then Times relentless tooth begins
TO cut the brightest, fairest spots,
And all unheeding moan a prayer,
We gaze on ruins naked blots.
The blight, the moth, the curse, is war!
The fabric? Nations pure, white
name!
And shall it live in splendor bright,
Or be consumed in lust and shame?
When wars have ceased, and marching
hosts
Drop swords for FURNISHED ploughs
again,
And sees in flowers the smile of God,
Then poetry will live again.
When sum of human love dispels
The frost of earthly greed and pain,
And only shines to bless mankind
Then poetry will live again.
When God descends to earthly courts,
And shamming justice mocks in vain
And golden rule is praetieed first,
Then poetry will live again.

ANOTHER CASE CONCLUDED.
HAZING TRIALS GO ON AT The
NAVAL ACADEMY.
Meriweather Convicted ? - c curt
Asks For Previous Record
In His Case.
cLEMENCY is ASKED IN SEW
ERAL OF THE CASES.

The trial of Midshipman Richard
l.. De Saussure, of Chalserton, s, O..
before the court-martial on charges of
hazing was concluded this morning.
The court viii take up the case Of
Midshipman William T. BOYD, Jt, of
Peoria, ILL.,, this afternoon.
At the conclusion of the case against
Boyd the court will adjourn for about
two weeks in order that the proceed
ings may not interfere with the semi
annual examinations at the Academy.
This adjo lrnment insures the fact
that all the members of the present
first class who have not already been
tried will graz uate on February 10.
There are a number of additional mid
shiplnen against whom the authorities
have sufficient information to justify
charges. but there is some hope here
that something will occur 90 prevent
any further activity on the part of
tho court.
Ia summing up this morning Lieu
tenant Charles S. Bookwalter, counsel
for Midshipman De Saussure, cited
over dozen cases of midshipmen who
had been tried for hazing under the
Act of 1874 and had been convicted,
but punished with a very much less
grave penalties than dismissal. The
cases cited covered the incumbencies
Of three different uperintendents of
the Naval Academy. He also cited
an opinion of the Secretary of the
Navy that penalty less than dismiss
sal could be inflicted upon conviction
of hazing. He called attention to the
extremely trivial character of De
Sausure's hazing and the entire alb
Of 20 oil or
vuIgarity. He asked that in case of
conviction the court recommend the
accused to the olemency of the review
ing authority.
The court martial took up the case
of Midshjpman William I. Boyd, Jr. +,
a member of the second class, at the
conclusion of the trial of Midshipman
De Saussure. Midshipman Boyd chose
to exercise the right of defending him.
self in propriR PERSONA He had not
secured civilian counsel and stated
that he had no request to make that
an officer be detailed TO defend him.
Midshipman Boyd entered two pleas
In bar of trial and motion to strike
out the specifications.
The pleas raised the points as ia
whether the Act Of 1895 succeeded
and swallowed mp that of 1874 and
whether or not tho failure OF the sh-
perintendent of the Naval Aeademy to
define the term "bazingn rendered the
Act If 1874 imperative.
The motion to strike out the speci.
fcations was based on the contention
that the offense of hazing was moi
adequately set out in any &C them.
The court ruled against the conten.
tions of the accused and he entered a
plea Of not guilty to the charge and
all the specifications. Boyd has IN
nounced his intention of examining
the witnesses this afternoon aud may
address the court at the conclusion OF
the testimony.
