BAY STATE VETERANS.
Connecticut Spanish War Veterans
 Ahead of Those in Mass.

New Britain, May 13.-Up in Mas sachusetts the soldiers who served in the Spanish war are just receiving their money for the time covered from when they were called out by the state to the time of their enlistment by the national govern meut. The total sum thus distributed is about s20O.000 and gives each private about $16.
 Lieutenant-Co Colonel Charles H. Moore of the First regiment. c. V. l., stated yesterday that the Connecti- cut companies received their pay back in 1901 or 1902. In 1900. he said, congress passed law providing nay for the soldiers from the time they were called out by the state to the time they enlisted in the United States army, a measure which prac- tlcally gave the men double pay. for they had been already paid by the state for this period.
 The period covered by the Connec- ticut companies immediately preced- ing their enlistment was thirteen days. or from May to May IT.. sergeants. continued the colonel, were paid at the rate of s2i per month. The orderly sergeant was paid at the rate of s30 per month, the corporaIs at the rate of SIS per months and the privates at the rate of S15.60 per month. In times Of peace a private receives sl3 per month and in times of war a % per cent increase.
 There were 252 men who vent from New Britain. said the colonel. of whom 243 were enlisted men and nine were officers As ;he enlisted men were paid 52 cents a day, they each received ss.76 a man. or to- tai Of sI.s42.sS. The officers re- eeivei about s10 apiece.
 The colonel is unable to figure why the Massachusetts companies should have taken 90 long tO get their mon ey as the situation was readily ad- justed fn Connecticut

BROOKLYN BRIEFS

Thomas Lane of New Haven visited friends in this section yester- day.
 Joseph Garbarino of New York formerly of this city is visiting rela- tlves on Bank street.
 It is nearly time for the letter carriers and the Brooklyn business men to play their first game. Many are anxiously awaiting the opening game of the series.
 Although the property owners would not object to an auto hose wagon fin this section. they are satis- fled at present with the apparatus now at the Brooklyn engine house.
 A horse was evidently affected with the heat and collapsed on Bank street this morning in front of the Hellmann Brewery. It might have wanted a drink. Dr Norwood. q veterinarian from Naugatuck. treated the animal and after about an hours rest. the horse was able to continue it's journey.
 At the Waterbury hospital to-day 1t was stated that Thomas Dobino. q youth residing on Railroad Hill street was not overcome with heat yesterday but was removed to the hospital be- cause of heart trouble. The boy was playing near his home when he col- lapsed and a story was circulated that he had been prostrated by the warm weather. The hospital authorities say the weather as far as they knew had no effect upon the boy's condition. The youth was feeling somewhat bet- ter this morning.

~GEORGIA E MAGNET !"
Husband of Actress Granted a
 Divorce To-Day.

Judgments in few of the cases heard by Judge Shumway in the superior court during the special term in April were received to-day. In the contested divorce suit of Frank P. Baylor against Annie Bay Tor, "the Georgia Magnet" decision was granted the plaintiff with the custody of the two children. Deser- tion was the allegation in the suit and on that grounds decree was granted.
 In the case of John w. Gaffney against Edwin s. Robbins for work done on the premises of the Grey stone Manufacturing Co, judgment was given the plaintiff to recover the amount claimed, $342, with costs. The defense in that case was that the work charged for was done for the company named, not the defend ant.
 An interesting case was that of the state ex rel against the Ameri- can Bonding and Fidelity Co and
 
 plaintiff was Mrs Marcia Scovill, and she sued to recover on the bond of Kelsey as administrator on the es- tate of Edward Scovill George Sco- will, a brother, of Edward and son of Marcia as we'll as brother of Mrs Kelsey, had an interest in the estate of Edward Scovill.. When he became insolvent some years ago he assigned his interests in the estate to his mother to make good for money she had lent him while he was in business. Kelsey as adminis- trator held that the assignment was not good and his wife as an heir to the estate attached her brothers in terests in it, which consisted of stock in the ScoyiH Manufacturing Co. The courts memorandum of judg- ment says that the assignment was good, was made for a reasonable con sideration, and that Kelsey had full knowledge of it. Judgment for Mrs Scovill to recover s2,269.S5 was given.

THE POLICE COURT.
Mill Street Man Said He Was Not
 Intoxicated.

Had not Michael Quilter of Mill streS insisted upon what he called his constitutional rights in the po- lice station at I o'clock this morn- ing he would not have been in the city court to-day. Officer s. c. Walsh was called to Cutters home and when he got there Quilter was laying down the law" to his wife. This was about 12:30 o'clock. He refused to accompany the officer and the result was lively tussle in which the officers helmet was knocked off. When Quilter finally reached the police station he was somewhat calmed and the sergeant in charge was inclined to let him go an hour or two later but he refused to quietly submit to being weighed and measured. This was an indig- nity he would not brook. Result: Another racket and Qullter was locked up. Nothing would do him this morning but he must needs have a lawyer to prove he was not intox- icated when arrested.
 He smelled of rum," said Offi- eer Walsh.
 How do you know is was rum; couldn't it be whiskey?" asked At torney Rogers.
 Sure" said the officer, Out it was booze anyway" e,-4 sp
 Booze ejaculated counsel for Quilter, What is booze."-s And for reply the officer looked al the law yer as though to say, We'll I'm not speaking to Scoop O'Brien now. !"
 Another thing that involved Quill ter deeper in the meshes of the law was the testimony of his son, Will liam. This young man said his fa- ther was not drunk and the officer was called in merely to scare him.
 But if he was not drunk?" asked Judge Peasley, how could you scare him, or where was the occa- sion for the scare?"
 Was Quilter able to walk to the station house?" asked Mir Rogers of the officer.
 He didn't have to walk" was the answer, i've carry them in nowa- days"
 It transpired that Quilter is one of those men who does not get intoxi- cated in. the legs and was able to walk to the wagon. It was shown that the man has. been constantly employed by the Scovill Manufactur- ing company for 2S years and was never before in court for intoxica- ton.
 He was committed to jail for 10 days and an appeal was taken.

Hartford, May 13.-About year ago an agreement was entered into between the local branch of the Re- tall Clerks International Protective association and the proprietors or clothing, shoe and furnishing goods stores, by which the stores were to be closed all day on certain holidays. not later han noon on Good Friday. no later than II p. m. on Saturdays and the evenings of the week pre- eeding Christmas. and not later than D. mon other days. Memorial day and July 1 are two of the days when. by the agreement. the stores are not to open. and In view of the fact that these holidays fall this year on sat- urday, the big trading day of the week. the clerks have Felt that 1t would be unfair to hold the mer- chants to the agreement to close at 6 o'clock on the evenings before these days. and accordingly the asso- ciation has voted to 'advise keeping open the Friday evenings preceding May 30 and July { Of this year" Most of the stores referred to will. therefore. keep open on those even ings
 It E probable that. In spite of the fact that Memorial day falls on Sat urday, the department and other large stores will be closed all day. in which case those vhO do their shop ping Saturday evenings are likely to be accommodated by the stores keep ing open the evezing before the hoIi- fay

Exceedingly BashfuI


Dear Miss Doom:
1 am a girl of sixteen, and am very
bashful. I go out very often n am
introduced to aides and gentlemen. 1
can hold a conversation with a girl,
but If q fellow talks to me l seem to
lose my tongue. l try to hold a con-
versation, but l am too bashful. Now,
Miss Doom, can you help me to get
over this, and win the thanks of
BASHFUL.
To overcome this bashfulness. which
is only a form of self-conseiousness,
you must get out of the habit oil think
ing about yourself. When you meet
strangers do not wonder what they are
thinking of you, but try to become in
terested in what they are saying. You
can do wonders in this line by eXer-
cising a little will power. l suppose
the very minute o hear that o are
about to be introduced to d stranger
you begin to feel i'll at ease through
wondering how you will ACT. Next
time you just try to think the other
way. Make up you mind that you are
perfectly self-possessed, and not a bit
scared, and o will be surprised to
find how well you will be able to ac-
quit yourself.

A solution of the embarrassing
what-to-give query is found in the
cover for the hot-water bag. This cover
may be made of some dark wash silk
or cotton goods, but Is preferably Of
eiderdown or flannel. The only Qualif1-
cation Is that 1t will 60 into the tub.
The hot-water bottle is no longer On
fined to the invalid class, and for this
reason a selection cannot be amiss.
The jumper dress has had many
changes, but it continues to hold its
own The semi-princess and empire
styles are popular in some materials.
Chambray, Bingham, muslin and linen
are all used in making up these dainty
frocks. Cotton or linen soutache Is a
trimming that is much used, also bias
bands and pipings always make a. neat
finish. For the woman who can en-
broider, a charming effect may be OBJ
tanned by embroidering dots In a color
like the material on bands of white
linen or pique. A guimpe Of some
transparent material gives a cool, sum-
merry appearance, or insertion set in
between the muslin, yoke depth. But
tons play an important part in the
trimming. White pearl buttons In
whatever size preferred are used, also
those covered with a plain color match
ing that of the gown. Some of the
striped materials are very prettily
trimmed with bands of the same cut
with the stripes running the other way.
Freshness prevails among the lovely
costumes made for children. How very
plain are the majority of dresses, with
little lace edges and a few tucks to give
what is really the only essential feature
for a trimming. Wee girls are wearing
