 Hartford, Jan 1.-Two slick finn Hammers will begin the new year $5 shorter than they intended to be, after trying to work the "short change game on William w. Lacy, head clerk in the Duggan's drug store at No 254 Asylum street. The two young men, who were well dressed, went into the store and bought 25-cent tooth brush, hand ing MT Lacy $10 in payment, and he handed them $9.75 in change.
 Here is quarter said the sec ond one. ''let him give you the $10 bill, and this MT Lacy started to do
 Scooping in all the money in sight the stranger handed out another s5 bill. Can you also break this as an accommodations" he asked. ...
 Film m-fiam," shouted MT Lacy, grabbing the money back and calling on customer to shut the door while he got an officer.
 We'll get the officer ourselves" they replied, and with that both ran out of the store and exceeded the speed limit down the street, leaving MT Lacy $5 ahead of the game.

SWEARING

is a very mean habit; it's profane, and anyone who is accustomed to swearing is never welcome in decent company. It certainly is very ob- noxious to be compelled to listen to such. But the word SWEAR has an other meaning. For instance, as In attestation of the truth of a declara- tion of ones intentions to keep good faith. Then again if a person wishes to swear off" drinking anything for one year. only good tea, coffee and buttermilk (the kind we sell we mean), that's the time there's no harm in swearing. We have heard 3O of a woman who long time ago sold intoxicants here in Waterbury. It was before license was heard of. She sold it while her husband worked all day. One day the good clergy man called to have her stop selling it, and she said it was no sin so long as she didn't put water in it like all the other dealers. But the clergy man laughed and said she was wrong in both instances. First, she should be ashamed of herself for selling the devilish stuff at all, and if she thought she would commit sin by putting water in it she was entirely
 of, because as he claimed it was no sin to water it, and the more water the better, and if she sold it all water it would be better still, in fact it would be what is known as God-send. She then and there .swore off," and beginning 1908 we appeal to every one who drinks poor tea or coffee, or worse still, any kind of intoxicant, to swear off" and call at our store and buy some of the kind of tea and coffee, yes, and but termilk, that's sold at

 Antihetting g Bills.

Albany, N. r., June S.-The extraor- dinary session of the legislature will reassemble this evening after recess of nine days and. it is generally be- lieved, will take up for the second time the question of abolishing gambling on race tracks.

 Governor Hughes, it is known, has received assurances that Senator Foel- ker of Kings. who is convalescine from an operation for appendicitis, will be here this week if his vote is neces- sary to pass the antirace track gam bling bills. With these assurances and with the election of William c. Wal lace in the Forty-seventh senatorial district. who has pledged himself to support these bills. the governor is ex- pected to renew this week his recom- mendation for antirace track gambling legislation. Until the governor sub mits his recommendation the legisla- ture cannot act on this subject.

 Side Apprehended by Strange coinUi- dence In Peekskill, N. Y.-Put to Work There Next to Cousin of Man He Is Believed to Have Slain-High- way Robbery Added to Gavosaviteh's Other Alleged Grimes.
 New York, June S.-George Gavoga, witch, small, harmless looking man, thirty-eight years old, was brought to this city from the site of the new reser- voir. ten miles below Peekskill, under arrest and charged with five murders and other crimes. He was taken to York, Pa, to answer charge of hav- ing murdered Michael Tituor. forty one, a subforeman who was employed on bridge which is being built near York. John Cardis, brother-in-law of Ti- tuor, told the police that Gavagovitch had murdered four men in Austria, one of whom was a cousin of Tituor Iii tuor was murdered on May 22, Gavoga- witch fled and the next day Cardis started from York in pursuit of him. Cardis traced him to city in Vermont, thence to Utica, \. r.. and on to the reservoir Last Friday Cardis sum- moned Chief of Detectives Charles White of York to Peekskill Then with Captain William Fuller of the watershed police they went to the res ervoir and took Gavogavitch by sur prise.
 Carried Two RevoIvers.
 White said that Gavogavitch was carrying two loaded revolvers at the time of his arrest. When he was dis armed other workmen near made threats against the officers. White told them what Gavogavitch was charg- ed with, and they led him handcuffed to lookup.
 Cardis and White said at police head quarters that Gavogavitch came to this country several years ago, leaving a sweetheart in Augrum. Austria. Learn ing that his promised wife had been unfaithful, he returned to Austria last July and, according to Cardis. killed four men whom he accused of destroy ing his happiness.
 One day last month Gavogavitch ap- peared at York and applied for work on the bridge. By a strange coinci- dence he was placed under Tituor. The latter recognized Gavogavitch and in Tituors shanty near the bridge accused him of the murders of Tituor's cousin and the other men in Austria. Gavoga. witch then shot Tituor in the leg, ran outside the shanty and, through win dow, fired three more shots into Ti- tuor's body, leaving him lifeiess.

Good Manners.

How many boys and girls realize the
Importance of good manners to their
success in life? How many times a
boy or girl has lost an opportunity for
better things simply because of lack
of knowing the right thing to do on
some occasion or perhaps more often
from failure to put in practice what
they did know. The place to begin
the practice of good manners is the
home and in everyday life. The books
to study are the people you meet. 1t
in doubt as to what is proper to DO
there are many ways of finding out,
but the lapse in good manners that is
on matter of common knowledge is
most objectionable. A boy who opens
the door and walks into the room in
front of his sister, or who is not will
ing to raise his cap when he meets any
lady of his acquaintance on the street,
has the beginning of a rudeness that
will close the doors of cultivated people
against him. The best passport to
friends is a courtesy founded on kind
ness and should be extended to all,
whether high or low.

Mistaken in His Friend.

A gentleman who lived in Rome had
Scottish deerhound called Eric.
This dog formed a friendship with
large French dog. Eric would now
and then bring his friend to his mas
ter's studio where he was always very
kindly treated. One day when the
gentleman was returning home from
his studio. the two dogs were attacked
by number of dogs and there was a
great battle When the fight had con-
tinued for some time and the two dogs
were apparently winning the French
dog skunk off and left Eric to finish
the battle alone. This the plucky dog
cheerfully did and then went home to
have his wounds washed. But the
next day when as usual the French dog
called Eric would not take the slight
est notice of him. In vain the gentle
man coaxed and scolded and brought the
French dog close up to Eric. He
would not even turn his head in the dl-
rection of his former friend. This line
of conduct he pursued ever afterwards
| evidently thinking that he had been
| mistaken in the French dogs charac-
ter as gentleman and must decline all
further intercourse with him.-Ex.

BOYS AND GIRLS.
Start Your Flower Garden.

Now is the time for the boys and
girls to make plans for the summer
gardens. Select and order seeds and
have all in readiness for the warm
weather. Plant in boxes in the house
those which will need an early start.
A window box fastened outside sunny
window will repay the owner many
times for the work it costs. Plant
flowers in your school yard. The work
we'll planned ahead will be much easier
to carry out than haphazard methods.
Among those flowers easiest to grow
from seed are sweet peas, nasturtiums,
morning .glories, asters, bachelors but
tons, pansies, sweet alyssum, zinnias,
peoples, sunfowers, portulacca, phlox,
petunias, candytuft. Start your dahl
las in the house in flower pots for later
transplanting.
