THE POLICE COURT.
oakville Man Paid $5 and Costs for
 Breach of the Peace.

Michael Hall was picked up this morning on sidewalk opposite the Notre Dame convent intoxicated. Judge Burpee gave him thirty days in jail to-day.
 William Perdicozineas and the Con- necticut Railway and Lighting com pany are not on friendly terms. The first named runs peanut stand at the trolley terminus in Oakville. Some time ago one of the trolley men upset the peanut sellers stand and the company would not recompense him. Yesterday morning he was go- ing to lay out motorman named Charles J. Simmons with club and but for the conductor he would probably have succeeded. He was crouching up behind the motorman when the conductor shouted, where upon the motorman picked up stone and kept his face toward the peanut seller while he was in Oakville. The peanut seller stated that Simmons and other trolley men help them- selves to his wares without ever of paying. He has to pay and he would have others pay him for his goods. The fact that the men are employees of the trolley company was enough for him to dislike them. A fine of $5 and costs was imposed.

BRYAN WILL STUMP ILLINOIS.
Declaration About Sullivan at Iro'
 quois Dinner Misunderstood.

Chicago. Oct 5.-William Jennings Bryan will take the stump in Illino;, and advocate the election of the en- tire state ticket. This will be a sur prise to those who thought that Tn his Jefferson club speech he advised democrats to refuse to support nom- inees who did not repudiate Roger c. Sullivan.
 According to Congressman Rainev, one of the anti-Sullivan leaders who is in charge of the western headquar- ters of the national congressional committee, MT Bryan never meant to say this. He meant that candidates for nomination by the party two years hence should repndiate Sulli- van.
 The general interpretation of Bryan's speech has been different, but whatever he said, Ms Rainey is authority for the announcement that he will support the entire state ticket on the stump.
 Bryan's first speech will he mada in Mir Rainey's district. He will al dress meetings in Pittsfield, Jackson vile and Carrollton October 15. On. October IS he will tour tno twentieth district, where Dr M. D. Foster is tue. democratic candidate against Con- gressman Frank Dixon, republican.

SHOT IN BREAST.
Boy Thought He Was Injured by FaI-
 Ilng to the Ground.

Shot in the breast evidently by fel- lows using bullets in reckless man. ner. Giuseppe Mastroianni of 268 South Leonard street last evening walked into his home and told his father that he had just fallen and hurt his breast. The boy, who is only years of age. undoubtedly fell to the ground when the bullet entered his body and evidently believed that he stumbled over something and the fall was the result. The father did not doubt the child's story, but the abrasion on the breast looked dangerous, so he called Dr B. w. Goodenough. The physician examined the wound and immediately came to the conclusion that the in- jury was the result of bullet. The father could not realize that his boy had been shot. Later in the evening the boys shirt, which was thrown aside during the excitement, was taken to the office of Dr Goodenough anu tAC llOic WAcIG IuC UuilCI plCl lCCu the shirt was found.
 This morning the doctor and the boys father examined the woods in the rear of the house and found evil dence that there has been much shooting going on there. A tin pan full of bullet holes from either a re- volver or rife was discovered and q piece of wood which was also marked with bullet shots. The doctor exam ined the boy again to-day and al- though firmly convinced that bullet is lodged in the boys breast, he has been unable to locate 1t although he has done much probing. The boy in all probability will recover, all though it was feared last night the injury would prove fatal.

MOTION FOR ALIM0NY
Preparations Made For Another Chap
 ter ihthe Lathrop Case.

Attorney O'Neill to-day put anoth- pr rod in pickle for Edwin U. La throp. It was the ground work for a motion for alimony for Mrs La throp pending the trial for her new divorce suit and her suit for main- tenance. The amount asked for Is not stated. that being left to the dis erection of the trial judge. Judge Reed last June awarded her $500 down and $50 month until the di- vosce case was heard. When he gave his decision dismissing the divorce suit, the alimony ceased, but never theless Mir Lathrop has since then sent Attorney O'Neill check for $50 every month and he sends it to Mrs Lathrop. As the superior court will not open here until the third Tues day of this month, 1t would be diffi- cult to say when the motion will be heard, but 1t will be disposed of as soon as possible, for $50 a month Is far from providing for the needs not to mention the wants of Mrs Lathrop, who has been in very poor health since her last appearance in town.

POLITICAL POINTERS.
Walters Nominated for County Sher-
 if at New Haven To-day.

" esSW Se~sSAA SS-Aovs
 New Haven. Oct 5.---Jacob B. Wal ters of Cheshire was to-day nominate ed for sheriff of New Haven county at the republican county convention. MT Walters won victory over Sher- if Durham by a vote of 67 to 27.
 Robert Palmer, republican canli- date for first selectman, at the re- cent town election, reports that he spent $2.74 for pasters and postage. MT Palmer was pasted by members of his own party and he notes the affair in his report as follows--"Aly being the cause of few recently de- posed leaders of the g. o. D. exposing their own duplicity, is a source, of self-gratification, the value of which cannot be exactly determined, but which, when summed up against my expenditures, leaves substantial balance in my favor" Although Mr Palmer did not get there, he is an ex- tremely popular fellow and the spec tacle of democrats voting for him and republicans pasting him caused considerable comment and prompted many to remark that Palmer should get out of the republican camp and step into the democratic wigwam.

too strongly commended, and II our
people really understand the miser-
able condition Of these poor, friend
less. Outlines imbecile and aged pau
pers, they can not and will not allow
conditions to longer remain as they
are. If they do not better these condf-
lions we are neither a Christian nor
civilized community, but are heartless
heathens and savages in our neglect
of these poor unfortunates. The writ
er had an account of the filthy, miser-
able state of one of the Poor House
inmates, from reputable physician
of Columbia, who had been called TO
see this poor, aged pauper, and If any
man can hear this physicians story

have no drop of the milk of human
kindness in his breast. We may all
have known little or nothing about
out County Farm, and because of our
ignorance are in a measure excused,
but now the matter has been placed
in the lime light by the Herald and
every citizen is obligated to become
interested and form public opinion,
so that our County Court will immed-
lately take steps to permanently i'm
prove matters and give to the helpless
paupers clean, sanitary, comfortable
quarters. such as Maury County is
in duty bound to have, regardless of
any other consideration
This is no attack or reflection on
any official at the County Farm or on
any member OF the County Court, but
is statement of conditions as they
are, that must be remedied through
proper channels. and will be, when
the citizens of this county realize their
grave neglect Of duty and require the
public servants to remedy those evils.
