TOWN OF ORANGE.

Wants City to Pay for Fowls Killed
 by Dogs.
 First Selecman Walter Main of West Haven has asked the city of New Ha- ven to reimburse the town of Orange in the sum of $40. It appears that a bull dog, renowned as a fighter, which is owned by a family named Casey living on Morris street, this city, went over into Orange one night recently and destroyed poultry owned by Mrs. o. Roy, of 52 Spring street, West Ha- ven.
 Under the state law the town of Dr. ange had to pay for the fowls. As the dog was registered in this city, MT. Main thinks New Haven ought to pay the damages that he allowed Mrs. Roy. The aldermen will take up the matter.

MAN WHO GOT THE UMBRELLA.

During a heavy fall of rain a friend of mine carrying a very wet umbrella entered hotel to pay call to some one upstairs. After placing the um- brella where it might drip he wrote upon a piece of paper and pinned it to the umbrella; IN. B.-This umbrella belongs to a man who strikes a 250 pound blow.

 He went upstairs and after an av- sence of fifteen minutes returned to find his umbrella gone and in its place a note reading: "P. S.-Umbrella taken by man who walks ten miles an hour won't be back at all.'
