street northwest, between Fourteenth
and Fifteenth streets. received a scare
yesterday when, they saw a crudely
made sign stating the resident OF
a small sore at 1922 z was confined
10 her bed with smallpox.
Investigation disclosed the fact that
the old French woman who has kept the
Ettle store there was in as good health
as ever.
It is thought that the sign was tackled
on the store by a crowd OF boys.

EATERS HAPPY
The New Wage Scale at New Milford Clears the Atmo-
 sphere and Men Go Back.

New Milford, Conn, July IT, The notice of the executive board of the Hatters' union to the manufac- turers of the Danbury district on the matter of a new wage scale prepared at meeting of the union delegates last Thursday went into effect to- day. The district embraces New Milford, Danbury and Bethel The hitch in the wage scale is over the price pair for sizing" cheaper grades of hats. The sizing" is practically the first step in the making of hats. The finely ground felt is drawn upon a metal cone and the shape is wound with a cloth and dipped, shaped and hardened and the shape is then pass ed to be finished. The ''sizers' have asked for an increase of ten and if. teen cents dozen for hats which sell at SIP and SIS dozen whole sale, which grades the manufacture CTS claim are now made at loss. The latter claim that they have to make the cheap grade of hats in order to keep the market for the better grad es.
 The strike of the box makers in the local shops which began last Satur- day was ended yesterday by the granting of an increase in wages.

WEBSTER PROPERTY.
Heirs Want New Owner to Remove
 Pipes and Wires.

Attorney Wilson H Pierce. repres- enting Mrs Edith Greenman of North Willow street, to-day notified Attillo Manichino, 234 South Main street, to be ready for war on July 27.
 A year ago Menichino acquired title to a certain piece of land on Meadow street. This land originally belonged to the first wife of the late c. B. Webster, and upon her death Mir Web ster sold it to the late George W. Beach. He transferred it to Ralph ana Edward Smith, and they sold 1t to someone else, and after passing through the hands of half dozen per sons it was acquired by Menichino.
 After MT Webster's death over a year ago, N. W. Greenman, his son-in- law, while looking over some papers discovered that Mir Webster has only a life interest in the property, which he thought was his and sold to Mir Beach,
 Consequently it could not have been properly owned by those through whose hands 1t went down to Men, ichino, and Menichino could have no legal title to 1t either.
 About the time Mir Greenman made this discovery Menichino was building adjacent to the land and had run gas pipes. water pipes, sewer pipes, and condults through this strip of land in dispute. An injunction was served on him to stop laying pipes, but it seems, on the advice of his counsel, Attorney Guifoile, he paid no heed to the injunction. but went on with his pipe laying. Mir Pierce to-ray had Deputy Sheriff O'Brien serve due notice upon Menichino that he hereby gave him legal and sufficient warming that if his pipes and wires and con dults and things are not removed from the disputed land on or before July 2T, he, Mir Pierce, will proceed forthwith and "sever, disconnect, cut and re- move said pipes and conduits. Now 1t is said that MT Guilfoile will have an injunction served upon Mir Pierce to restrain him from carrying out this threat. Thus injunction will be fought with injunction.

FAMOUS CAT CASE.
Parties Finally Get Together and
 Settle It Out of Court.

The celebrated cat case with James Walker defendant and his neighbor Mrs Mutter plaintiff, has been settled out of court. the plain tiff agreeing to pay costs with the understanding that the whole pro- ceedings be relegated to the grave of oblivion. James M. Lynch was counsel for Mrs Mutter and Thomas F. Devine stated the case for Walker.
 Mrs Mutter agreed to let the af- fair drop and Walker was willing to let it go, too, on condition that the plaintiff pay the costs. Thus ended a case that has attracted considerable attention not only in Waterbury, but all over the country.
 Judging from what has been brought on the question it would seem that you have no right to kill your neighbours cat. but if it does damage you can make the owner set tie, provided he has anything and you can fasten the guilt on the right cat,

THE DEADLY AUTO
Nine Persons Killed and Thirty
 Four Injured in 26 Days in , Massachusetts.

Boston. July 17.-Nine pedestrians have lost their lives and thirty-four have been injured as result of auto- mobile accidents in Massachusetts within the past 26 days, according 10 statistics compiled and made public to-day by the Safe Roads Automobile association. During the 26 days there have been 92 collisions in which automobiles have figures. The invcs- tigations conducted by the association show that out of 16 cases looked into the operator was to blame in l3.
 Convinced that radical measures must be adopted if these accidents are to be stopped, the assoclation has of fered rewards for conviction of opera tors who do not leave their names after an accident, and hays also offer ed to reward evidence which shall secure the conviction of persons oper- ating automobiles while under suspen- sion or after revocation of their licen- ses. Evidence leading to the convic- ton of persons attaching numbers to vehicles other than those to which the numbers have been assigned will also be rewarded by the association.
 The Safe Roads automobile asso- citation was formed about month ago by a number of automobile owners who determined to seek evidence for the purpose of convicting operators guilty of reckless driving and who de- sire to make the highways of the state safe for persons travelling on foot as well as all vehicles.

ANOTHER INJUNCTIoN.

An injunction was served upon P. H. Garrity this afternoon by Deputy Sheriff O'Brien to prevent him carrying out the building of a wall in building on Meadow street The plaintiff in the case is Mrs Eliz- abeth Winestine and she claims dam ages of $l,000. Mrs Winestine all leges that in 1906 she bought land adjoining that of Peter Brooks and they entered into an agreemnt by which the construction of their joint buildings should leave an areaway for ventilation between. She com plains that Mir Garrity then bought land near by also and he threatens 10 build in such a manner that the agreement between her and Brooks relative to the areaway would be of no value.

Multimillionaire Reid Buys old Barn
 Door of Boyhood's Days.
 RICHMOND. Ind, July 17.--An old barn door that had been swinging on it's rusty hinges for more than half cen tliry and which had faced the wintry blasts and summer storms and beating suns was brought into Richmond from the Penney farm, west of town, and after being carefully packed 1t will be sent by express to Richmond Terrace on-the Hudson, the summer home of Daniel G. Reid. the New York multi millionaire. who formerly lived here.
 Mir. Reid's father resided on the farm west of Richmond. Last week the steel and railroad magnate went out to visit the haunts of his boyhood. On the face of the rear door he beheld the letters ID. c. R." deeply carved in the oaken board of the middle panel by himself when boy.
 Some of the happiest days of my life as boy were spent behind that old door," remarked Afr. Reid, "and also some that were not quite so happy those when my father interviewed me in the shadow of the door after I had been caught fin some boyish prank. !"
 Mir. Reid did not buy the barn. but he paid good price for the door.
