ed by the council and the proposals
for street improvement on these por-
tons of Main and Court streets by
paving with warren's bitulithic water
proof pavement, followed.
Dickson Is In Error.
Mr.. Dickson is in error when he
states that "the council has advertised
for bids on bitulithic alone" or, for
that matter that the council has ad-
vertised for bids at all, although 1t
has published notice of its proposal
to pave those particular portions of
Court and Main with bitulithic pave
ment.
When the council calls for bids 1t
will of course reserve the right to re-
ject any and all bids and If 1t should
ask for bids on Warren's patented
pavement and should receive bid on
that pavement which appeared un-
reasonable or eXorbitant as compared
with the prices on other approved
assume that the council would know
enough to reject the bid.
Certainly, the council may have lost
its greatest brain center with the loss
of Mr.. Dickson from the council
board, but 1t is to be hoped that the
council is not yet entirely imbecile.
New Ordinances Possible.
AS to the violation of the city char
ter the cit ycouncil is more than sat
isfied with the ability of its attorney
| to make its ordinances, proposals and
bids legal and regular. Under the es-
Inmates for bitulithic pavement the
city need not go beyond the $4,000
| limit of Indebtedness for the propose
improvement. AS to the macadamiz-
ing or paving Of the streets the regu-
J lar revenues of the city are to be con-
sidered. When the sewerage system
wss placed in Pendleton the city was
obliged to issue its warrants fol
about $4,000 in excess of the sewer
| bonds.
These warrants were piad off ir
! less than IA months from the regular
income of the city besides paying cur
rent expenses and the amounts des
ignated to the various sinking funds
The excess in receipts over disburse
ments should be amply sufficient t
meet other street improvement al
rapidly as the people are raedy for II
1t is most devoutly to be hoped tina
an Indebtedness of $4,000 for stree
improvement will not so disturb tn
city,s financial equilibrium" as to in
definitely delay all future improve
ment in this boasted city of prosperi
ty.

Direct In Police Court.

New York. March 27.-Magistrate
Moss, of the police court, is said to
have issued this morning as a result
of conference with Jerome. three
warrants for three insurance officials
whose names have been prominently
identified with the evidence adduced
by the legislative investigating COM
mittee. Jerome went direct from the
police court to his private office.
where it is said he communicated by
phone with the individuals in ques-
ton. AS a result they are expected
to appear before the magistrate
promptly and surrender themselves
by bondmen.
This is apparently Jerome's answer
to Judge O'Sullivan, who urged the
grand jury not to permit the district
attorney to take the insurance case

COON TACKLED HUNTER.

Fight in Tree Lasted Nearly Two
 Hours-Animal Weighed Twenty-Six
 Pounds.
 Harry Wheeler, of Oakville, near Wa terbury, in company with bod Adams, went out hunting Friday night, Novem- Der g. They were little undecided as to what course to pursue, but finally took the road to the town house. It was about 10 o'clock when MT. Wheeler discovered that there was some species of game up in one of the trees in back of the town house. He promptly began to climb the tree and found a large coon, the largest he had ever seen. He made dive for the coon, but was much surprised at the way the coon tackled him.
 MT. Wheeler is somewhat of hunter and says that that was the first time in his life that he was ever tackled by a coon. The encounter, which was of a strenuous nature, lasted for about two hours. The only weapon that MT. Wheeler had was a large pocket knife. He was without a gun and didn't have lantern. The knife was used very freely and at last he succeeded in mor- tally wounding the coon.
 As the coon fell to the ground Mir. Wheeler's dog jumped on it and killed it. The coon is said to have weighed ] twenty-six pounds.

New Haven Theater.

One of the most touching episodes ever written in a drama is the pathetic story of the baby stolen from the moth CT by the father, for revenge, as told by Dr. Snyder, in his AS Ye Sow" which will be presented here on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, this week, at the New Haven theater, and at the Bargain matinee Saturday and which has already frightened one sorrowful heart, thus accomplishing part of the good for which the author is striving in writing this drama. Dora Leland, the heroine, tells of her little girl, who was stolen from her arms by it's self ish and unnatural father, while she is holding the minister's adopted child sleeping in her arms. She tells how she is reminded of her own lost child. In her grief, she says, John, she makes me think of my own baby, who, maybe is living in rags and wretchedness, and maybe is dead"
 Afterwards, she learns that the very child on whom she has lavished so much affection Is her own child, who has always been tenderly cared for.
 In one of the large audiences that have characterized every performance of this rural drama, during it's stay in Chicago, there was a quiet, pale-faced woman, who was much affected by this pathetic story, so realistically present. i ed, and sought out the author after the performance to tell him the following story: Ut is like a bit of my own story Five years ago I lost dear, little girl, in almost the same way, for was divorced from a cruel, drunken | husband, and the judge decreed that the child should be mine My husband was much enraged at the decision. and, watching his opportunity he came to my home and stole the baby l have 1 been unable to find the slightest trace l of her. though I have searched every childrens, home I could learn of. In understand that my husband has mar ried again, but I cannot ascertain if 1 the child is still with him or not, The story in your play of the little child has brought back my sorrow fresher than ever. But 1t has also comforted me, for 1t is possible that my child | if still living may have found a happy home, where she is well taken care of, as though had her myself. Witness ing your play has been great com for to me. You all seem so real" she said, smiling through her tears

Bijou Theater.

With Lawrence B. McGill in the stel- lar role, the Stock company at the Bi- jou yesterday afternoon gave it's first performance of 'Monte Cristo." The play was greeted by large and en- thusiastic audience, which gave the production it's hearty approval. The production Is all that has been cleaned for it, and is easily one of the most elaborate productions of the piece ever seen in this city at popular prices.
 It is Mr. McGill's own adaptation of the play which is used, and 1t possesses all of the dramatic values of the piece. His interpretation of the character of Edmond Dantes, later the Count of Monte Crlsto, won him the heartiest applause from his audience. Mr. Me- Gill has net been seen this season in any play in which he has better pleas ed his audiences.
 The production given the piece is elaborate, and the costuming is gor- geous. The first and second acts are each In three scenes, the remaining three acts being each with single set ting.
 Worthy of special mention in the work of the company is that of William F. Canfeld as Mortier, the friend of Dan tes. In this character MT. Garfield finds one that suits him most happily, and he is apparently perfectly at home, Miss Dorothy Lamb created a most fa- vorable impression as Mercedes, after wards the Countess de Morcef In the third act, which contains a strong scene, she met the demands of the play in an entirely satisfactory manner.
 An added attraction this week is the presence of Miss Mabel Miller the popu- lar little soprano. She is to appear be- tween the acts and will sing at each performance. The usual souvenir mat inees will be given on Friday and Sat urday.

MANY WOMEN

have some organic weakness which causes inflammation, alteration, or a distressing catarrhal condition.
 Mrs. N. J. Dickson, a trained nurse of New York city, writes: 'Paxtine Is unequalled for cleaning and healing touches, and I have found that 1t does everything claimed for 1t. believe every woman should use Paxtine for her health"
 This Is because Paxtine is the most successful formula of noted Boston physician, used in his private practice for years in curing the most obstinate inflamed and catarrhal conditions of the mucous membrane surface of the body, such as sore eyes, sore mouth, sore throat, nasal and pelvic catarrh.
 AS a general toilet antisepte Paxtine has no equal. When a woman Is once acquainted with Paxtine she will never be without it, Have you tried 1t? ]. c. Brady, druggist.

A GROWING HEN.
Canaan Biddy Takes Place of Chanti-

Canaan Biddy Takes Place of Chanti-
 cleers in Roosterless Flock.
 John Robinson, who resides with Miss Sarah Adam at Canaan was a surprised man when he went out to feed the flock of hens the other morn ing As he was about to return to the house he heard lusty crow which seemed to come from the flock he had just fed. He glanced back at the bid dies, fully expecting to find that a neighbours chanticleer had come to make morning call. But he saw none and again started for the house. Again he heard the crow but this time he discovered that it emanated from the throat of a large and plump Plymouth Rock hen. Again and again she re- peated it, not weak squeaky imita- tion of the rooster's greeting but loud, clear, resonant clarion tones, in fact MT. Robinson thinks the hen can out crow anything wearing feathers in Canaan.
 Although according to the old coup let relative to whistltng girls and crow ing hens, this hens head should drop alongside the chopping block during the latter part of this month we under stand that if her end is to be a bad one it is to come just yet.
 The hensis regarded as considerable of a curisity and MT. Robinson has her on exhibition a large part of the time Caanan News.

PETITION.
To Have New Free Library on Old
 Green.


 Green.
 A petition is in circulation in favor Of placing the new library building on the Green. The petition is as follows: To the Honorable Board of Aldermen
 of the City of New Haven:
 We, the undersigned, citizens of New Haven, do most respectfully, but em- phatically, petition your honorable body to carefully consider the site for the proposed new public library building, as 1t Is likely to affect the best interests of all the citizens of our city, before coming to a final decision.
 We believe the green to be the most suitable place for public library.
 We believe this would be true if the site offered on the corner of Elm and Temple, or any other were offered free
 We do not believe the payment of $70,00C, or any other sum for a site would be justifiable,A
 We do not believe in taking property out of the tax list unless a necessity exists for it.
 We do not believe in locating a pub lie library any further away from the center than is absolutely necessary. We do not believe that the donor Mrs. Ives, could possibly object to the green as a site for monument to her memory. which this library building would prove to be.
 We do not beleive that the interests of Yale university would be in the most infnitesmal degree impaired by locat- ing the library on the old state house site, and we do not think the faculty of Yale or their friends, have any req son to object to placing the new librar. building on any part of the green youl honorable body may decide upon. Yale has no use for this library, having 6 superior one of her own, and we think she should not be consulted in this mat ter.
