 This book. which is sent free to every old state inquirer about Ar kansas lands, has SS pages and maps of the State and United States. The cover design in eolors is a thing of beauty. |; shows an Arkansas farm home surrounded by orchard and vine yard, with herd of thoroughbred Jerseys graz ing on an alfalfa meadow, in the foreground. There are about 70 illustrations of the various phases of farm life, some of them repre- senting scenes in our own locality

H. US. NOTES.

Prof. Mase carrie1 his geology class out to Rough and Ready Friday evening to make obser- vations. A number of rare spec imens were found and the class returned delighted with the trip and discoveries made. The find ing of petrified mussel shells on top of the hiN would indicate former oceanic eccentricities. Picks and shovels will be used on next trip and the grand old hill will be made to yield some more curiosities.
 The music and expression con cert given at the H. U. s. Friday evening was grand success. Monticello turned out in force. Many visitors were present from Wilmar, Florence, Selma and oth- CT sections. The Silver Comet Band pleased everybody. The different piano numbers were eheered, the readings and ora tions were unusually good, and the male quartette caught the crowd. Every number seemed to please and at the closing of the program the expressions of commendation were abundant. Misses Mckinney, Hudson and Prof. Mahling deserve thanks for the entertainment. A more elaborate programme will be giI- en on Thursday Nov. 26th This will be In keeping with Thanks giving day and e rare treat is in store.
 The young men of the H. U. S. are arranging to organize a Y. M. C. Association. There is no question about this being a move in the right direction. It can be said with credit to the student body that among it's num- bers' are four young ministers and many active Sabbath school and church workers. No one can question the moral tone of the H.

THE SUPERIOR COURT
Special Panel of Fifty Jurors
 Summoned Today.

The case of the state against Demetrio Maesano for the murder in the second degree of Guiseppi Vazzanni at the latter's home on Mill street one night last summer was taken up by the jury and judge Reed in the superior court to-day, instead of, as had been arranged, the case against Leonardo Samele for the murder in the first degree Of Vito Summa last December
 A special panel of fifty additional jurors was summoned for both the state and the defence, challenged every juror.
 The questions asked by the de- fence were:
 Do you hold any office? Were you ever justice of the peace, constable or deputy sheriff? Ever had any trouble with Italians? Have you anything at present anything to do with Italians? Have you business relations with Italians? Have you any prejudice against them?
 The questions asked by the state were:
 What is your business? Do you employ any Italians? Do you trade with Italians? Have you any bus mess relations at all with Italians? Have you heard anything about this case and if so have you formed an opinion as to the guilt or innocence of the accused?
 Usually the answer to the fist question is: ''I am farmer" and the answer to the question Do you trade with Italians?" is No more so than with other people"
 Maesano is quite young man. He boarded with Vazzanni on Mill street and he was captured in Scran- ton few months ago. On the way to Waterbury he told Detective Thomas Colesanto a story of thp murder in which he said that he feared he was going to he beaten by Vazzanni who had often licked hinl, and called him a boy and would not let him into any conversation with men in the house. Since then, how ever, he has denied telling ColesaIto anything. There was rumor that Vazzanni was associated with a so- ciety known as the "Black Hand"

It was decided to play the opening games on Sunday, April 12. Each team must hand it's money into the treasurer, Joseph T. Smith. not later than April 8.
 The Brooklyn firemen were call. ed out about g o'clock this morning by a still alarm to a two family house of Daniel Cronin at 26 Lafayette street. A fire in the chimney had filled the house with smoke and from the outside 1t seemed as though there was big blaze on the inside. The flremen used three tanks which were sufficient to quench the fire.
 The All Amateur team of Bridge. port will play a return game with soc teamm of the Ameteur league fin this city next Tuesday evening. As the Brooklyns and South Ends are scheduled to play the preliminary game on that evening. some other five in all probability will have to meet the visitors. Since the other man. agers are not likely to arrange it so that Brooklyn may participate in the game it looks as though the Hamil- ton Parks would have to uphold the reputation of the league on Tuesday next.

MATTATUCK STREET
City and Railroad Company May
 Go 10 the Courts.

It is not easy to make Mayor Thoms change color, but he blushed this morning when he looked over the re- port of the railroad commissioners or the application of the railroad com pany for permission to relocate Mat tatuck street west of the railroad anc for approval of certain changes in the grade of West Main street at Crane street and in Mattatuck street at West Main street. When the railroad changes first came up the commission CTS and the city agreed upon loca. tion for Mattatuck street close to the railroad, but later the company desir- ed to shift it westerly and submitted petition to the railroad commission CTS. The changes carried with them some trouble with reference to grades which the city is very much opposed to and at two different hearings Mayor Thoms, City Engineer Cairns City Attorney Kellogg, acting for Waterbury, Edward L. Seery and others representing private interests fought the application with all their might, and while it appeared that they had won the commissioners to their way of thinking, this was far from the fact as the report received at the city clerks office this morning shows The mayor looked the docu- ment over hurriedly, colored up and then requested that copies be prepar. ed and forwarded to the city attor- ney. It is bad throw down for the city, and probably means fight in the courts which will delay opera tions for a long time.
