MRS. PECKHAlM WANTS CoNSHR
 VATOR.

Judge Cleaveland in the probate court yesterday morning took up the appilca- ton of Mrs. Sarah Agnes Peckham for the appointment of a conservator over her husband, George H. Peckham. She alleges that he does not give her proper support and that he is wasting an es- tate of about $5, 900 that has been left to himi, She also alleges that he treated her cruelty.
 The couple have one child. They have been married for ten years and for five years lived apart For about two years past they have lived together, and Mrs. Peckhan's present residence is in How ard avenue.
 Attorney Ely represented Peckham and Attorney Clarke appeared for Mrs. Peckham. It was suggested that an amicable arrangement might be made so the wife and child should be given enough for their support. Attorney Ely said that his client would support his family. But as witnesses were present in the conservator proceedings testimo- ny was taken.
 In her testimony Mrs. Peckham said that her husband had advertised her and warned people against trusting her; that he had beaten her so that she had him arrested one time, but did not press the case. She also said he took a stove shaker to bed with him for the purpose of striking her. Mrs, Peckham also stated that her husband was fre- quently intoxicated.
 Attorney Ely, who represents Peck ham, stated to the court that his client was mentally and physically capable oi taking care of himself and his prop erty.

 BRANBORD RACES.

5. H. Bronson's Pacer Wins the First
 Race--Ella Hal Wins Two Races This
 Week-Fast Horses in the 2,24 Trot-.
 Programme for TO-day.
 The horse fanciers and others who were at the Branford Driving park yes terday afternoon saw some good races, many of them having the satisfaction of seeing a New Haven driver and horse win the first race on the pro- gramme.
 Harry Brussie, who was formerly from Hartford but is now resident of this city, drove Beth D. 2:14 IA, the winner of the 2:14 pace. J. H. Bronson, who formerly owned Beth D, sold her several months ago to John H. Dillon. During the races at Bridgeport last week MT. Dillon offered the pacer for sale when MT. Bronson bought her. The present owner was mueh pleased to see his horse win against a good field yes- terday
 Summary:
The daily morning journal and courier., 1906-08-18

Several remarkably we'll bred horses came out to start in the 2:24 class for trotters. Ella Hal the winner, was for nerly pacer, and is member of the noted fnily of Hal pacers. She has a record of 2:15 IA at that gait. She was Sired by Brown Hall, 2:12 1-2, sire of Star Pointer 1;59 IA, Elastic Pointer 2:06 1-2, etc, her dam being Ella Brown 2:11 1-2 by Prince Pulaski, jr.
 On Tuesday of this week at the Bran ford track Ella Tal won the 2:3O class for trotters.
 Another fast horse in the trotting race yesterday was Sid Axworthy, sired by Axworthy, 2:15 IA, a fast trotter, and sire of family of fast horses, nearly all of them trotters
 Jim H. a bay gelding, sired by Bour- bon Wilkes, is a fast trotter with a long stride. His trainer, Mr sceary from Hudson, N. Y, said his horse was not up to his usual form in consequence of a recent accident. He won the first heat in the 2:24 class yesterday from a good field.
 Virgil B, the veteran trotter, looked like a youngster and with Charley Cook at the reins went good race but was in too fast company.

HOhenIinden.

HOhenIinden.
On Linden, when the sun was low,
All bloodless lay the untrodden snow,
And dark as winter was the flow
OF Iser, rolling rapidly.
But Linden saw another sight
When the drum beat, at the dead of night
Commanding fires Of death to light
The darkness of her scenery.
By torch and trumpet fast arrayed,
Each horseman drew his battle-blade,
And furious every charger neighed,
To join the dreadful revelry.
Then shook the hills with thunder riven,
Then rushed the steed to battle driven,
And louder than the bolts of heaven,
Far flashed the red artillery.
But redder yet that light shall glow
On Linden's hills of stained snow,
And bloodier yet the torrent flow
Of Iser, rolling rapidly.
TITS morn, but scarce yon level sun
Can pierce the war clouds, rolling dun,
Where furious Frank and fiery Hun,
Shout in their sulphurous canopy.
The combat deepens. On, We brave!
Who rush to glory or the grave!
Wave, Munich all thy banners wave,
And charge with all thy chivalry!
Few, few shall part where many meet;
The snow shall be their winding sheet,
And every turf beneath their feet
Shall be a soldiers sepulcher.
Thomas Compbell.
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1906-03-21
A Stranger in Town.

Fifteen miles below the head of the
passes of the Mississippi, and not far
from where Southwest Pass loses it
self in the Gulf of Mexico, a little
stream no wider than a village street
curves away from the main "pass."
Along both sides are tiny landings,
and back Of each there is q cottage.
The cottages are now neglected and
forlOrn, but once they were palm-shad-
ed, rOse-g guarded and lovely. There, in
the days when Southwest Pass was
the principal mouth of the Mississippi,
dwelt the pilots who carried ships
across the bar.
"Old PilOt-tOwn" is hidden from the
traveller on the pass by a dense cane
brake, and strangers seldom enter il
from it's bayou. One who did came
down the river in a skiff, and turned
into "Old Pilot-town Bayou" at noon
for dinner. He found a ready meal
at the first cottage, where dwelt an
old woman. widow of one Of the old
time pilots. AS the meal progressed.
one by one interested neighbors
dropped in to see the stranger, till a
dozen were braced against the walls.
How many people live here now,
Mrs. By asked the visitor Il thought
the bayou was rather deserted
Mrs. B. looked round the room and
took account of stock.
You can count them for Yourself"
she said. They're all here"

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamcd condition of the mu
cous lining Of the Eustachian Tube When
this tube is infamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed. Deafness IS the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to It's normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh
which is nothing but an infamed condition
Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case OF Deafness Caused by catarrnD
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
