LEGISLATIVE NOTES
Brief References to the Doings at
 Hartford the Past Week.

The trout bill has become law and by it's passage all trout caught in the state now must be over seven inches in length. The action of the House was remarkable in the fact that the bill was unfavorably reported from the fish and game committee. It is said that this is the first time that an adverse report of a committee has been turned down by the House.
 Another matter that came right in the line of fish matters was the passage of a special act making the fishing season in Litchfield county begin on April 15 in- stead of April 1. The open season in Litchfeld county will now last from April 15 to July 15.
 Itis understood that the judiciary com mittee has surprised both the independ- ents and the Southern New England Telephone Company by notifying them that it will go to Columbus, O., and in- spect the workings of the independent system if the opposing interests will send men along with the committee. This the independents agreed to when they made the suggestion to that effect at the time of the hearing.
 Favorable reports were made on an act amending chapter IA, acts of 1907, so that whenever any town has consoli- dated or shall consolidate it's school dis tricts and has voted or shall vote to ap- praise the district property, the first se- lectman, one member of town school committee and one assessor shall consti- tute the appraisal committee. Calendar.
 A favorable report was also made on amending chapter 187. acts of 1903, SO that any town in which high school is not maintained shall pay the whole or a part of the tuition of pupils attending any endowed or incorporated high school or academy. Calendar.

A TIMELY WARNING
RELATIVE TO THE FOREST FIRES
Need of Great Caution-Brush Should be Burned on Quiet Days-CompIain- ants get Portion of fFines-Names of Fire Wardens.

The question of forest or woodland fires is of great importance in country dis trIcts, especially during April and May, when most of these fires occur. Al though Connecticut is not subject to the immense and devastating forest fires which characterize coniferous forest re- gions, the ground fires which are every where so common in our state do very serious damage. Where they do not kill the timber outright they injurs it's growth and make it susceptible to fun gus diseases which result in death soon- CT or later. All young seedlings and sprouts are killed, thus delaying for many years forest regeneration, and the humus or vegetable mold is destroyed, so that deterioration of the soil results from every fire. It is safe to say that the almost worthless condition of thou sands of acres in Connecticut is largely due to these fires
 Thespeople of the state should do all in their power to prevent these fires, just as they would prevent the burning of buildings or other property.
 Farmers burning brush should be par ticularly careful to select quiet days,an preferably do it toward nightfall, when there is little wind. They should also observe the law relative to the clearing of land about such fires.
 Teachers in public schools cannot cele- brte Arbor Day better than by impress ing upon the minds of the children the evils of setting these fires, which are so often due to the child's love of excite ment
 Anyone seeing forest fire should at once notify the fire warden in his neigh borhood, and if he has information re- garding the setting of such fire, this should be imparted to the warden The law gives one-haif of the fine collected to the person furnishing such informa- ton. The wardens of this region are as follows:

Legislative Committe Plays Mean Trick
 on Lawyers.

on Lawyers.
 Donald T. Warner of Salisbury, s. A. Herman of Winsted, l.. J. Nickerson of Cornwall and several residents of Kent inspected the vacant spaces in the capi- tol yesterday with feelings of melan- choly. They discovered, after making the journey to Hartford, that the gen. eral assembly was out of business for the week.
 They had been notified earlier in the week by the interpretations committee that hearing would be given yesterday afternoon on a petition for an amend ment to the charter of the Stanley works. and they desired to appear in opposition. Hearing nothing further from the com mittee, they came to Hartford, but the committee did not. The thing to which they object is the request that the com pany may dam the Housatonic river at point in the town of Kent and gener- ate electricity to be transmitted to New Britain. A clause in the proposed amendment would permit the company to sell the power thus generated, and the rights proposed for the company regard ing its operations in Kent are so ample that the residents of that town are pre- pared to make an energetic protest when the committee gets ready to hear them.

TROLLEY IS DELAYED.
UNTIL SELECTMEN GIVE APPROVAL

From Great Harrington to Canaan
 are Dangerous-Work May not be
 Begun Until Summer.
 The announcement that work could not be started on the extension of the Berkshire street railway lines to Canaan from Great Harrington until letters of approval of the latest revised route were sent to the railroad commissioners by the Great Harrington selectmen and Gilbert of Great Harrington, came as 8 great surprise. It was the general inn pression in this vicinity that all the de- sired approvals had been secured and soon as the weather conditions were favorable, but as 1t is the work may not be begun until early summer. When the proposed route was first offered for faction because of its going north of John B. Chadwick's house, as it was said that it would damage Mir. Chad wick's property to a large extent and also make dangerous curve for people travelling on the highway. After con- siderable litigation i'll regard to the mat ter the trolly officials agreed to have the line cross the meadows south of the res idence of MT. Chadwick and that was satisfactory to him as well as to last years board of Great Harrington select men.
 The present board of selectmen think that there is still a dangerous curve and for that reason they will delay sending their approval. Members of the board will visit the place and then make an effort to have the matter remedied. The principal delay along the line has been at this section and were it not for that, work would have been started on it be- fore now. The present board of select men will not approve a proposed line unless thsy consider that they are talk ing proper steps.
 The surveyors have again been work ing on the proposed extension of the Berkshire street railway to Canaan by way of Lake Buel, a route which will be about 16 Ia miles long and will add to the network of trollys which President Mellen of the Consolidated road has stated will soon be formed in the Berk- shire hills. This line has long been wanted for various reasons and at this time when warm weather is approach ing the numerous advantages which could be derived from such a service are thought of. Lake Buel has for several years been the charming resort of southern Berkshire and the chief ob- stacle to its being more popular has been the fact that it has been quite difficult to reach because of the hilly roads, and for that reason trolley would put aside this objection and make this handsome sheet of water, which is surrounded by numerous groves, as important as Pon- toosuc lake at Pittsfeld. Property own CTS near the lake are we'll aware of the extensive benefits which will be caused by this trolley line and for that reason the prices of lots have increased and more cottages are to be put up by people owning land there.
 LATER-We understand that the selectmen have approved the route de- sired by the railroad company.
