ONCE TOO OFTEN
Girl Frequent Visitor in Court
 Committed 10 Jail.

Sylvia Hill, 1s, and Anna Capo-
 dano. 20, who said her name is Anna
 Brown. though her father said 1t was
 Capadona, were bsfors Judge Burpee in the city court to-day charged with
 being street walkers. Oficsr Gala
 nan testified that he had his eye on the girls and some fellows all night and about midnight he saw them en- ter S8 Scovill street and go up stairs. He went around by the back and stood on the veranda outside the room he had seen them enter. He also said he has seen them repeatedly on the streets nights. Ofiicer Fitz- gerald gave similar testimony. The Hill girl had nothing to say for her self. but her friend made quite a speech. Her excuse for being on the streets late at night was that she is Ian interpreter in an Italian saloon. The girls father said she Is married and that her husband lives in New York and she causes him lots of trouble. Judge Burpee advised her to give up Ter job and find other companions than the Hill girl. As 1t was her first offence she was let of with fine of $7 and costs. Their companions, PasQuale Florede and Dominica Birnanillo, settled for $7 each. The Hill girl was committed to jail for sixty days, as she has been in court several times within month.
 James Hurley was put on proba- ton to pay fine of $10 and costs for intoxication.

In all probability the latter part of this month or early next the cars on the Cheshire division will run through direct from this city to New Haven As the entire line is now operated by the Consolidated road there is no need for the changing of cars at Nit Carmel.

The republican party of Waterbury IS said to be taking steps to form a political club which will include all prominent persons connected with that organization and many others who never have been in any way af- nllated with 1t. In a published list Of prospective packers the name of Edward B. McElligott, one of the democratic members of the depart ment of finance, is mentioned, but there must be some mistake about that MT McElligott is still firm believer in the saving principles of democracy and 1t is safe to state that the new club will have to get along without any assistance from him.

SHE'S GONE

It is reported from New York that Aana Gould, undeterred by her sad ex- perience with little Castelane, will marry another French rake who bears the reputation of being the "wildes' man in all Europe" Considering the maoner in which George Gould acted over the treatment of hls sister by Castellane, this news ought to make him the "wildest man in all New York" There is st least one riff: in this cloud that Is about to settle over the imbecile Anna, and that is the fact that her intended successor to- BOni is "unequaled as spender." If this be true, he will soon run through with the remainder of his wite's portion oi the Go Id fortune, and, as it is lncon ceivable to think of any one, after her money is spent, living with such a fool as Anna has shown herself to be, we shall no longer be bored with tales about her and her husbands.

lLAsEgS HOME RULE DEMAND

Friends of Alaska should be greatly encouraged by the statement of Dele gate Gale, sent out from the national capital, that President Roosevelt win recommend a territorial form of gov srnment for the northern country in his message to congress next month. The President should do so; If he knows the sltuatiod thoroughly, he Willdo SO.
 Theodore Roosevelt is not the kind of man to temporize with the wicked influences which have stood iu Alaska's way. The truth must finally make for AlaSkA's good. The greed of time SsrveS has already sorely taxed the patience Of American citizens who are earnestly and honestly seeking the ma terIAl, moral and political welfare of the northern country; indeed. they have reached the point where they can no longer compromise with the cohorts of evil in that portion of the country with out forfelting the decent consideration and helpful interests of their fellows elsewhere.
