No one undertakes to excuse or con done the disgraceful scenes that were enacted at the capitol at Hartford on Thursday of last week. They are inex- ousable. The people have every reason to expect dignifed. gentlemanly de- meanor on the part of the lawmakers whether it be on the first or last day of a session. There would be no objection raised to merriment and harmless fun but when these men transgress the bounds of propriety and indulge in actions which might be expected of a gang of thugs engaged in a saloon brawl the condemnation of the people decends upon them and deservedly, too. But there are some of these members who escape the censure of the people. They escape it because they anticipated these riotous, and brawlish scenes and re- mained at home. Honor to them. And shame on those who precipitated the disorder.

We venture the prediction that the people who have been opposed to the sewer project in Canaan will be among Its most ardent supporters in the not very far distant future. These folks probably will not agree with us when they read this paragraph but it will be remembered that there was opposition of just as vigorous nature when 1t was proposed to install electric lights and to replace the sand banks, of which the streets were composed, with hard, up-to date state roads. And where is the Ga naanite to-day who desires to return to the kerosene street lights (which burned occasionally and the ankle deep sand? He can't be found. And we repeat, there will be the same change of attitude on the sewer project.

Horses Were in Demand.

V
 On Saturday the demand on the Can aan liveries was the largest in their his- tory, the occasion being the funeral of Mrs. Germenia k. Gondelli, an Italian woman residing near the Peirce SS Free man lime kilns, who died of tuberculosis of the larynx. Arrangements were made with liveryman A. P. Briggs to furnish teams. He used all his own horses and engaged those of the other hverymen besides teams from the farmers near Canaan and in East Canaan and Ashley Falls, 30 horses in all. There were more than 30 teams in the procession and even this number proved inadequate, as 20 people in attendance at the funeral were compelled to walk. The funeral was held in the Catholic church and was the largest Italian funeral ever held in Can aan. Undertaken O. M. Humphrey was ln charge.
