SUIT FOR INSURANCE.
Several Witnesses Heard in the Dis
 trict Court To-day.

Tn the suit of the Prudential Life Insurance Co, against D. H. Tierney and others a motion for Judgment on the pleadings as they stand, was heard by Judge Cowell in the district court to-day, evidence being taken. Mrs D. H. Tierney testified that the policy in dispute was for $500 and was taken out by her sister Mrs Mary Fitzpatrick on her own life. Mrs Fitzpatrick died last winter. After the policy was in existence a short time Mrs Fitzpatrick decided to drop it, and she did so, and took out insurance In society known as the Royal Neighbors. But the pol icy did not die, for it was taken up by Mrs Fitzpatrick's aunt Mrs Mar garet Monagan, unknown to her.
 Attorney Slavin, acting for Mrs Moagan undertook to show that Nj
 Fitzpatrick "willed" the policy to Mrs Monagan but Mrs Tierney said she did not know anything about that. She knew that Mrs Monagan paid $200 toward purchasing a mon- ument for her father who died on July 27, 1905. In fact Mrs Fitzpat- rick, 1t seems, told no one about talk ing out the policy for Mrs Tierney said she knew nothing about 1t un- til after Mrs Fitzpatrick death.
 Miss Margaret Fitzpatrick, a daughter of Mrs Fitzpatrick, testified that she is the administratrix on her mothers estate. succeeding D. H. Tierney who resigned that office previously. Her mother, she said, never promised Mrs Monagan she would pay s2o0 toward erecting a monument. and ill fact she did not know Mrs Mnbagan had taken up the policy till after the death of Mrs Fitzpatrick. At this point a contin- uance was asked for to Monday, when Mrs Monagan will take the stand

JUDGES DECISION
Why Pearl Lske Read People
 Must Continue 10 Walk.

In the mandamus proceedings by the city against the Connecticut Co to make the latter continue the troll ley line from Baldwin hill to the Pearl Lake road and thereby fulfill It's agreement with the city, Judge Bennett decided for the trolley com- pany. The board of works. impa- tient with the manner in which the trolley company regarded its agree ment with the city, voted to bring mandamus proceedings and thus make the company do what 1t did not seem inclined to bo, build the trolley line to Pearl Lake road. The trolley company then moved to quash the proceedings and the matter was ar- gued at short calendar in the super for court two weeks ago. Judge Ben- nett's memorandum of judgment is as follows:
 In 1893, special laws, vol II, p 724 the Waterbury Traction Co were au- thorized to locate and construct q railway in Naugatuck and Water bury, along Cole street, Franklin street, Union street, Mill street, Bald win street, Baldwin hill, Chapel street and Pearl Lake road. This au- thority has been continued by char ter to that corporation and its suc- cessor the Connecticut Railway < Lighting Co until the present time. These statutes grant right to locate and construct, but impose no duty to either locate, cos.atrnct or operate. Under the amendment to the charter of the Connecticut Railway & Light ing Co, passed April 29, 1903, special laws, p 120, the right to construct a railroad over the said highways was renewed, extended and continued in force" until July 1, 1905, and under a private act passed at the last Ses- sion of the legislature until 1909. In 1904 the Connecticut Railway & Lighting Go had the right to con- struct its said road at any time up to July 1, 1905, and the respondent has now the right to construct at any time up to July, 1909.
 Since no duty to construct and op- crate was imposed by the legislature upon the Connecticut Railway & Lighting Co in 1904, if any special duty enforceable by mandamus has been imposed at all, it must have been by force of the action of the mayor and board of aldermen of the city of Waterbury set out in the al- formative writ. This action was had upon the presentation to said muni- cipal body by the said corporation of It's plan of location in said highways under section 3823 of the general statutes. The condition which it is said imposes special duty to con- struct and operate the railroad on or before the 18th of November. 1904 cannot be supported except upon the claim that it is modification of the plan of location.
 "In my opinion the right to modi- fyaplan of location cannot be enlarg- ed by construction to include right to impose duty to construct and operate which the legislature has not imposed or q right to abridge the time within which the legislature has granted the right to construct. The motion to quash in sustained upon the second ground

NO DISEASED CATTLE.
Commissioner Averill Is on the Look
 out, However.

Hartford, Nov 21.-General H. O.. Averill, commissioner on domestic animals, has received word from Sec retary Wilson of the department of agriculture of the appearance of foot and mouth disease in several coun- ties in Pennsylvania and of the con- sequent quarantine of the stock yards in East Buffalo. He has, how ever, no fear of the appearance of the disease in Connecticut, owing tp the prompt action which has already been taken, but shipments of live stock will be watched until the dan ger is over.
 It was said at the office of the Con- necticut Humane society yesterday that 1t had not heard of any existence of the disease in Connecticut and no apprehension of trouble is felt in that quarter. -s-s4s
 As the federal quarantine includes the states of New York and Penn sylyania, there is little likelihood that the disorder will reach this state.

Waterbury will appear larger than ever with It's three theaters. A le- gitimate house. a house for the "va- riety" and now one for stock" will lead the populace to believe that the city Is surely growing. There is no reason why the new house should not be paying venture without in- terfering much with the other the aters. It perhaps will help stimu- late the theatrical business in this city and not only help itself but in the long run prove beneficial to the theaters now Tn town.

Jas. A. Norris, who has been Jim

pretty nearly thirty years now, took a
day off recently and the fact nearly
caused a riot. Mr.. Norris and his
better half went up to Akeley last
Saturday to visit their daughter Mar

parts, as the following item clipped
