Attorney Harrison appears for the
plaintiff and Attorney Fowler for de-
PENDANT. Judge Wolfe was on the
bench. He waited several moments for
ten defendant to appear and then be-
ban to get uneasy. Persons having
business with the court are apt to re-
member it and be unctual or send ex-
cuses, Nothing was heard from Mr..
Backes,
Finally Attorney Fowler thought it
about time to investigate and he has
tened to a telephone and called up
Wallingford. Mr.. Backes had just
left for New Haven he was informed.
During his absence the missing man
had telephoned to court saying he had
been detained but this information did
not satisfy the court Upon Mr.. Bac-
kes' appearance he was questioned by
Judge Wolfe who informed him in no
uncertain terms how the law read in
the matter,
MIR. Backes informed those who had
been waiting for him that he went to
get the papers but found his sister
had the key and she had gone riding.
He waited as long as possible and
then telephoned regarding his delay.
He hurried to the city as fast as pos
sible after that.
The court asked if he did not know
he should be on hand the moment the

case was called and informed him
that there was no excuse as he should
have provided himself with the neces-
sary papers and documents early in the
day, knowing the case was to be tried
that morning. The court was not ex-
actly pleased at that point to learn that
Mr.. Backes had not been successful in
securing the documents and another
continuance was the only course to
take. He accordingly continued the
case until this morning and said he
would hold his decision in allegiance re-
garding the contempt charge until that
time
The attorneys in the case stated last
evening that they did not anticipate
any serious trouble provided by Backes
was on hand when the case is called.
According to the statutes it is a serious
matter in being late in court, but the
punishment is left to the discretion Of

The town of Carmel in Palestine has
from time immemorial been know

it was there that Elijah conquered

lis not only sufficiently serious to mer-

In the shape of outstanding stocks and
bonds? One railroad which owes less
per mile than another may really be
the more highly capitalized of the two
by reason Of having less to show for
what it owes.
In discussing the two systems 1t is
apparent that the New Haven serves
one Of the most prosperous and rapidly
growing sections Of our entire coun-
| try, while the Maine derives lis sup
port from states which are growing
but slowly. Maine and Vermont are
nearly stagnant states, or at least
would be but for the activity of a few
manufacturing towns. Even with
some growth in factory centers, Vel
mont after the census Of 1890 and
Maine after the census of 1906
served as the standard of slow-grow-
| ing states by which the congressional
reapportionments were made. The fac
tory cities OF Massachusetts, Rhode Is
land and Connecticut, On the other
hand, have been growing in the last
fifteen years with sensational rapidly.
Little Rhode Island alone added more
to its population Detween tie last two
federal censuses thad 5id the three
states of Maine, New Hampshire and
Vermont. Connecteut's growth was
more than twice that of the three
states to the north of lis. The New
Haven system, therefore, has heen go
ing with the tide. TO what extent 1t
has been itself respon ip,e for the lids
is another question; It has doubtless
had part in the development Of this
manufacturing growth.
