JUSTICE THE NEED OF THE HOUR.

BY Rev. Newell Dwight HilIs.
Among the dark problems Of life
we must make place for the injus-
tice that noble men sometimes suf-
fer. Long ago Jerusalem crucified
it's Saviour, Athens poisoned its mas
ter, Florence burned it's hero, but to-
day every town and village holds at
least one martyr to cruel and unjust
judgments.

Arrested Their Charter.

Grand Master Henderson of the
grand lodge of Iowa, l. o. Q. f. was
in the city Thursday and on Thursday
evening arrested the charter of Star
of Maine Lodge Rebekahs, l. o. o. f.
The lodge was strong numerically
and financially and it is supposed it
was abolished as a disciplinary
measure. Soap club sociability, scan
dial mongering and other pastimes had
interfered with the working of the
body along the lines laid down by the
supreme and state grand lodge consti-
tutions and the conduct of the lodge
had become menace to the good of
the order. Cedar Rapids Record.

$500 Reward for Dog Prisoner.

During the past few days several
dogs in West Union have been sent to
the happy hunting grounds over the
poison route. About every so often
it seems that some one, who is lack
ing in that love to mans lest friend,
takes it upon themselves TO rid their
community of dog life. There are
dogs, no doubt, that are not much of
a credit to community, but there
are also good many other dogs that
are not only valuable, but much be-
loved by their master. l. f. Brown
has two such dogs, and for the protec-
tion of dogs in general he offers a re-
ward of 5000 for the apprehension,
arrest and conviction of the parties
putting out this poison. West Union

D|OCS III LARGE
Sdll Giving Trouble Notwiih- standing Mayor Thoms Order.

The order issued by the mayor re- garding dogs is being pretty general " observed, although here and there you see mongrel disporting in the snow. There is nothing wonderful about this, for no matter how you try to restrain a dog 1t will break away once In a while and make n tour of the neighborhood before returning home. When the city appoints man to keep track of the dogs there will be no more trouble with them here than In other large towns. Tho law states that every owner of dog shall pay license on 1t and that 1t shall be provided with collar bearing the name of the owner and the register number. Very little notice is taken to this ordinance and as a result 1t IS out of the question to tell who owns the CUTS that are at large all over the city. During the past year about thousand of them were rounded up and killed, but you wouldn't miss them. It would be better for the dogs and much more pleasant for the public if the 0rdi- nance was enforced right along. In this way nobody would keep more dogs than he was able to maintain and the officer would be better able to locate offending canines than they ever can under existing conditions.

HOSPITAL BILLS
Board of Charities and Health
 Department al Odds.

{ 4
 The board of charities and the de- pertinent of health don't quite agree regarding the matter of expenses in.
 cured in caring for patients at the
 isolation hospital, although 1t has long since been settled that the
 health board is in control. This causes some confusion. The con- Imissioners of public charities feel, and naturally so, 1t would appear, that 50 long as the board of health has charge of the isolation hospital lit should pay all bills contracted for that department of the city govern ment out of its own appropriation, but the health commissioners refuse to see things in that light, hence the difference of opinion. There is one patient at the isolation hospital at the present time, girl i'll with scar- let fever. and 1t is quite likely that when 1t comes to straightening up the bills the board of health will be asked to do the right thing and in the event of refusal the thing may end in few good speeches, if noth- ing worse.

THREATENED WITH ARREST.
Officials Blamed for Exchange Place
 Being Cleared of Snow.

Nothing strikes terror into the
 hearts of human beings like a threat
 to have them arrested and taken in-
 to the courts. Mayor Thoms and the
 commissioners of the department of
 public works have not yet recovered
 from the shock they suffered when
 Ralph Blakeslee, prominent mem-
 Der of the Humane society, declared
 that if they didn't take steps to pre- vent the snow from being carted off Exchange place almost as fast as it falls he would take action against all of them. This trouble is of long standing The entire street for a distance of couple of hundred feet Is swept clean to the pavement and
 horses coming in from all directions with heavy loads on runners can't pull their loads over the bare pave ments. This and the use of salt in large quantities has set horsemen to talking, but 1t is extremely doubtful if 1t will amount to any more than that. It Is amusing to see how the officers wink at the use of salt on the street and then notice how they pile on to private citizen provided they catch him putting little on the sidewalk to help get the sticky stun on. You see, the nature of an offense depends very largely upon who happens to be the offender. But what's the use indulging in plati- tudes. It was 50 from the beginning and it never will be one whit diff ferent.

CARTER LETTER
Boy Saved Allowance of 7sc .
 Week For Railroad Fare.

1 Another letter was received to-day by Attorney John O'Neill from Mrs Jennie Carter. wife of Captain Henry B. Carter. telling of the woman's whereabouts, how she has been get ting along and how the boy Henry who disappeared from his fathers home week ago reached her. MT O'Neill declined to tell where Mrs Carter now is. All he says on that score is that she is far from her hus- bands, relatives and his cousin in North Scituate, Mass. Enclosed in the letter was copy of the boys let- ter to his father written before he left home.
 Mrs Carter's letter is to the effect that for some time she had been writing to the boy and in all her letters she told him she would like to see him. The captain allowed him 25 cents a week pocket money and this he saved until he thought he had enough for car fare to where his mother was living. Then he wrote her he would leave home on such a day and would like to have her meet him at the depot. MT O'Neill de- clined to name the depot. She did not meet him herself at the train, but her friends did and they took him to her. She thanked MT O'Neill for the clippings from the local pa- pers about the disappearance of the boy and then goes on to state that she is now many mile away from her husbands folks and that his cousin whom he charges as being the cause of breaking up his home is still in North Scituate for all she knows, but he is not working and has not worked for some time and has no income, therefore her husbands charges against him are without the slightest foundation
 "I would like to know" she writes, "if Captain Carter can make charges against me that I am unit to have the care of the boy. or if he can take steps to have him taken away from me. am sending you copy of Harry's letter to his father before he left him."
 Following is the copy which was in the boys handwriting:
 Waterbury, January 29. My dear Papa,
 Don't get worried about me as have gone to mamma. I want to live with her. will let you know later where am so you can send me my clothes if you want to,
 Your loving son,
 HARRY CARTER.
 MT O'Neill would not say if steps had been taken by Mrs Carter to have herself appointed guardian of the boy. Or If Captain Carter had taken my such measures. These letters will tell you" he said, "how the boy ,ame to go away. That is all that | ;an be said about 1t now"

woRKMEN WERE BUSY.
Shoveling Snow to Put Roads and
 Railroad Lines in Condition,

A little more snow fell last night, but not enough to make much differ- ence in the measurement announced yesterday. The night was cold, the thermometer registering about two degrees below, but people who were out early claim that they know the mercury dropped five or six degrees below zero. In any case, the weather was not warm last night and all though there was beautiful sunshine to-day, one wouldn't have to stop long on the sidewalk before he would get chilled. Things were lively about town. owing largely to the hustle made by the street department and the trolley company to get the snow out of the way, while the noise made by drivers of vehicles who couldn't force their horses through the drifts attracted some attention, too. The trolley cars stalled on the different lines yesterday were all collected and taken to the barn and cars were running on regular schedule time all day, The storm was the heaviest that visited this part of the state in some years and caused considerable hardship on the outskirts of the town. The street department helped out considerably with the snow blow. but teams spoiled the paths made for pedestrians and along towards even- ing things were almost as bad as ever. There is some drifting to-day, but the constant tread of busy feet kept open ways to enable nearly all who are employed to get to work, so that the usual number of people were on the streets at noon. ISleighing is good and people who like that kind Of exercise and can afford 1t are in their glory.

MEMORABLE RIDE
Party Leit Monday Evening and
 Returned Last Night.

A sleighing party composed of a
 number of young ladies and gentle-
 men from Scovill's factory had an experience Monday night and Tues day morning which they are not like
 ly to forget until they are summoned to join the angels. Taking advantage Of the excellent sleighing they left for 6traitsville Monday night about
 7:3O and did not reach Waterbury on
 the return trip until yesterday after
 noon at 5:3O. Although the clouds
 looked 0min0us as the partyl eft the
 center the occupants of tho sleigh
 never for n moment imagined what
 an eventful ride they were to take.
 The party reached Straitsville in good
 time and although the snow was fall
 ing fast. no one thought that the snow would prevent them from
 reaching Waterbury on the home
 ward journey. They Arrived in the
 Brass city all right, but not at the
 time expected.
 It was after midnight when the
 party after feasting and making
 merry at house in Straitsville all
 evening, made preparation for the drive- back in the raging storm. AL though some of the lassies were tim i'd about undertaking the trip they were persuaded by the majority who seemed willing to take their chances on reaching this city. But after travelling for more than an hour and very little progress was made the members began to grow anxious and let's go back" was heard to come from several of the male as we'll as from the lips of the weaker sex The horses at length became almost ex- hausted and for time 1t appeared as though the party would be com pelled to keep the seats of the sleigh warm the entire evening. The snow had covered the members to such a degree that they all appeared to be ghosts. They knew notw hat to do as some were for proceeding towards this city while others argued to re- turn to Straitsville. At length it was decided to return to the burg although n few of the party put up at farm house not far from where the party became stalled. They started back to which they reached after a terrible ride through the binding snow. Some of the ladies were al- most frozen and many of the gentle men were numb from the cold. It was almost morning when they struck hotel. They remained there l until late yesterday morning when .hey again set out for Waterbury, reaching here at the time mentioned abOye
