CLOSING EXERCISES
Every Seat Taken al Methodist
 Church Last Night.

Almost every available seat in the First Methodist church was taken last evening at the closing exercises of the three days jubilee convention of the Connecticupt Sunday School association. The convention, which marked the fftieth anniversary of the organization was such success that last evening the delegates were most enthusiastic over the events of the past few days. The principal speak CTS who have delivered such instruc- tive addresses during the convention were again heard last evening and their remarks were listened to with as much interest as on the opening day. There were several conferences yesterday between the pastors and superntendents at which the work for the coming year was discussed. Al though it was not definitely settled, in all probability the next convention will be held in New Haven. Be fore the convention adjourned the fol- lowing delegates were appointed as nomination committee for officers:
 Hartford county-Oscar H. Phelps of Hartford, New Haven county, J. NJ. Mansfield of New Haven; Fairfield county, F. w. Marsh of Bridgeport; Litchfield county, w. H. Green of New Milford; Middlesex county. w. F. Fairbanks of Middletown; New Lon- don county, B. P. Bishop of Norwich; Holland county, the Rev G. s. Gould of Rockville; Windham county, George E.

 While in a department store in New Haven yesterday afternoon Game Warden David k. Walker of this city lost a card case containing some very valuable papers. He had just taken S150 from the wallet and laid the case upon the counter while he was paying for a purchase. When he started to leave he turned to pick up the case. but it had gone. He immediately notified the police and the New Ha- ven detectives are working on the case. Mir Walker Is anxious to get back the lost article as 1t contained some very valuable papers.
 The Three of Us," with Carlotta Nillson in the stellar role. appeared at Poli's last evening and was wit messed by a very small audience. The play is in four acts, written by Rachel Brothers, and deals with western life. Although Miss Mill son, who was last seen here with William Faversham in Lefty" is a clever actress and is supported by capable company. the play did not make a tremendous hit. The play might appeal to some. while others would regard it as commonplace The show had a good run in New York. but it is not meeting with much success on the one night stands.

PLUMEESTATEHEARlNG
Took Place ia Superior Court
 Room To-Day.

For over an hour in the superior court before Judge Curtis this fore noon Colonel L.. F. Burpee on one side contended against Attorneys c w. Bronson and H. G. Newton of New Haven on the question did the late David s. Plume cancel or forgive a note for $4,500 issued by his son Frank c. Plume?
 The Colonial Trust company, as ad- ministrator of MT Fumes estate, has a suit pending against Frank c Plume to collect the amount of this note. MT Plume practically cut off his son, leaving him merely an al- lowance of $1,zU0 year in. monthly installments of $100 during his life time. This allowance comes from a trust fund of which MT Plume gave the management of to the administra- tor of his estate. It was long agt when the son gave this note to his friend, J. s. Eastwood. MT Plume en- dorsed the note and paid the interest on it without compensation until he died. Now the Colonial Trust Co wants damages of $10,000 from the son for the estate.
 In the arguments on the matter it was stated that the estate of MT Plume amounted to about S2S5,O00 and that his daughter, Mrs John Gary Evans, whose husband is an ex-gover- nor of North Carolina, received the bulk of the estate, $1S5,000, and when the natural course of events takes place she will receive about $65,000. In his will MT Plume said not a word about this note, of his son, Frank. He never even. alluded to it and the defense therefore takes it that he discharged the debt, else why should MT Plume be silent about it. The natural presumption, according to the defense was that he forgave the debt. If he had not forgiven it why should he have provided for his son for life by this annuity of $1,20O? asked counsel for the defense.
 Counsel for the prosecution took up that point and contended it was this identical annuity that showed that MT Plume had not forgiven the debt. Why did he give his son an if he had forgiven it and thus the counsel for both sides held the courts attention for over an hour
 It was the most interesting matter that has been argued in the superior court in some time and most of the younger members of the bar were on hand to hear the discussion. Decision was reserved.

THE POLICE COURT.
Man Who Got in Wrong House Got
 Jail Sentence.

The case against Frank Tedor of North Main street for selling drink without being licensed to do so was called in the city court to-day, but owing to the unavoidable absence of his attorney, c. w. Bauby, it went over to tomorrow.
 Michael Meyers was committed to jail for thirty days for vagrancy
 Michael Shugrue, while intoxi- cated last night, went into the house of another man on Canal street, mis- taking it for his own quarters. This morning about o'clock the occu- pant of the place discovered Shu- grue in his bed with his shoes on, and raised a cry of "Robber!" Off, Ger Neagle responded and took Shu- grue to the police station. To-day he was charged with intoxication, common drunkard and breach of the peace. In his defense he said he did not have a key to get into his strange quarters and how he got there he did not know. He was given ninety days.
 Unregistered dogs continue to be a source of income to the city. Thomas Bolton and Andrew Sirica paid S5 each, besides the cost of having their dogs registered, and $5 each for the dog warden before they could recover their dogs.

SCOTT ROAD PEOPLE
Will Soon Be After Department
 of Public Works.

There is likely to be trouble be. tween property owners on the Scott road and the department of public works. The highway is over hun dred years old and in a general way it might be termed one of the impor- tant public highways of the town. For some reason not generally known it appears to have got lost in the shuftle since the passage of the act ot consolidation, so that at the pres ent tint it is almost impossible and teams go over it at great risk. In- deed, it is in such dilapidated condi- tion that men who come in here with wood teams claim that if the city doesn't intend to fix it steps should be taken to have it closed be- fore somebody is killed there. It is said that it would cost a large sum to repair it, but of course this is due to the fact that nothing has been done with it in years and as result it went from bad to worse John H. Clark lives in one of the four houses that stand in that portion of the street located in Waterbury, and he with others have plans under way to call in the state highway commission CT and see if he cannot do something for them. MT Clark resides in the Deacon Crockett house, which was built over a century ago and is still in good repair. At that time you could whip top over the Scott road clear to Prospect, but it is different now and if something isn't done pretty soon a goat will not be able to make it's way through it. Nearly all the wood teams from that dis trict come through it and this in itself shows that the road is of some importance and should not have have been allowed to get in it's pres ent shape. If the property owners get down to business and ask the in- tervention of the state officials, it will be interesting to watch the scrap, for it is sure to be a battle royal.

IN SUPERIOR COURT
Norihrop aud Holmes Building
 LiDe Contention.

The question of building lines came before Judge Curtis in the superior court to-day in the form of two mo- tions to strike out certain parts of the complaint in the two cases of Agnes D. Northrop, widow of the late A. c. Northrop and Walter W. Holmes, against the city.
 As there are no municipal claims as alleged on the property of either plaintiff, they maintain the city has no Jurisdiction over them in directing them where their building lines shall be- In this contention the city was represented by City Attorney Kel- logg and the plaintiff by Colonel Bur pee. The suits are the result of sale of the property of Mrs Northrop, which is situated at the corner of West Main street and Central avenue, to c. D. Nye and K. W. Hampson. Their object in the purchase was to build on the property and to build right out to the inner line of the sidewalk. The city, it seems, antici- pated their intention and the sale of the property, which was conditional, was declared off. Then Mrs Northrop, and Mir Holmes who was similarly situated, near by, entered the present suits for the removal of cloud to their titles to their respectives prop critics. Away back in August, 1888, the city, for the purpose of estab- fishing a building line put lien on the properties in question and it seems that this action had escaped the memory of the plaintiffs. The question in issue is the city's right to prevent anyone from building to the utmost limits of his own property.
 Cases put down for hearing for next week are as follows: Tuesday David Richard vs the administrators, T. F. Pagan and Louis Archambeault, on the estate of Joseph Lawrence; James E. Russell's appeal from pro- bate, Oliver Powe vs c. Hart Gull yer, administrator and others. We'd nesday-Ella $. Williams's appeal from probate, George r. Woley vs the Connecticut company, Loren R. Car ter vs the city: the E. H. Towle com pany vs Matthew D. Byrne. Thurs day-Samuel Hennes vs Jacob Musler, Edward Bergin & Sons vs the St Francis Xavier church, James L. Alcott vs U. G. Church.
 At short calendar in the superior court to-day Mrs Edna H. Robinson, whose case was continued from last Friday, was granted a divorce from Charles Robinson on the grounds of iabitual intemperance. The required testimony was furnished by three residents of Naugatuck, who testified that the man was almost constantly intoxicated and that he got into trouble on account of his method of collecting the school tax in the school district of Millville. All of the other divorce suits went over.
 There were long and warm argu- ments on the appeal of Hugr Byrne of Waterville from the decision of Judge Lowe in the probate in taking the custody of Hugr Byrne. ir. aged s years from his father and giving it to Mrs George Slack. his neighbor. Decision was reserved
