THE POOR MAIL MAN.
He Has His Troubles Over Addresses
and No Addresses.

Queer things happen at the post Of
flee and for the most part women are
the actors in them. Some weeks ago
there was published in III Democrat
n short article to the effect that Il let
ter addressed to Mrs John Keefe'
Waterbury, Conn. at the post office
informing her that the body of John
Collins awaited her in Il certain hos
ptal i'm Baltimore. Md. The letter
had been in the post office for a week
going through the hands of the mail
curriers' but every effort to find Mrs
John Keefe" was in vain. Then the
post office folks availed themselves of
the columns Of the Democrat and, a
few days ago an answer was re-
eeived.
A young woman presented herself
at the post Office saying she had heard
that card" for Mrs John Keefe,
Waterbury, Conn.," was to be deliv-
cred and that it informed Mrs John
Keefe of the death of John Collins
in New York
The matter was taken to the assist
ant Postmaster John j. Boylan who
informed his caller that it was not a
card but a letter and that John Col
lns' had died in Baltimore, not in
New York. The fair caller insisted
John Collins had died i'm New York
and mo where else" as If he could
have died in two places. In vain the
postmaster protested that. according
10 the letter the man had died in
Baltimore. and ut length the woman
admitted that this might be" so, and
If so. he must have been buried by
this time in Ansonia where Mrs John
Keefe- lives.
Thursday. in asserting the mail the
clerks found a picture card without
any address, telling the sender's sister
IN Winsted that she was having n
lovely time here i'm Waterbury and
was going to church every morning,
and of course all about the weather.
The card went through the hands Of
various mail carriers and was found
TO have been mailed by young wonl-
an living on Liberty street, as she was
going To work in the morning. aud
that she wrote il a few minutes before
breakfast. Naturally in the hurry to
get Ia the shup.she forgot To address
and put n stamp on it, But the funny
part came in when the girl insisted
that IL was a queer post office that
could not deliver a simple postal card
which she had intended for her sister
I'm Winsted. even though IL had no
address.
But madam said the post master.
there is no address on the card"
Even So said the young woman.

SELBY'S NURSE
Attorney Church Says Woman
Was Hired By Eagles.

The question between Mrs Matilda
S. Hungerford and the Eagles So
ciety was, If the society was RESPONSE
BILE for her wages for taking care Of
its member, Charles Selby? or did an
other member named John Burns
supersede his Instructions when ne
engaged Mrs Hungerford through a
Mrs Dutton.
Selby had been some time sick and
there came period in his illness
when it was imperative that ne
should have nurse or go to the
hospital. President M. j. Ryan look
ed among the members to see If any
one could be had to take care OF Sell
by, but they were all engaged at
work of their own.
He then told Burns to get a man
for day or two at $3.50 a day and
the committee on sick would see
what could be done, meanwhile.
Burns, it seems, saw Mrs Dutton and
heard from her that Mrs Hungerford
could be had and while he did not
say directly that she could be engag-
ed, when the committee on sick call
ed upon Selby day later they found
Mrs Hungerford in charge. They Of
fered Selby the comfort and accom-
modations of the Waterbury hospita
but he refused to go there. Mrs Hun
gerford did not know the callers were
from the Eagles until after they had
called several times. Mrs Eisenhart
In whose house Selby was rooming at
the time, complained to the sick COM
mittee of the great Inconvenience and
loss she sustained on account of haV-
ing a sick man in her house, and
they thereupon told her t2zat all Sell
by was entitled to was the attend
ance of a physician and 81 a week
for thirteen weeks and of this he
could rest assured. A. Girard, a
member of the committee, then in
cidentally remarked to Mrs Hunger
ford:
Il suppose you're after your money
too" This was the only reference
made by the committee to the woman
about money for her services.
Notice was accordingly sent Mrs
Hungerford that the society would
not be responsible for her money.
Attorney Church, counsel for Mrs
Hungerford, argued that President
Ryan indirectly engaged Mrs Hun
gerford for the constitution of the
society gave him power to engage a
nurse in such an exigency as this was.
Attorney Guilfoile, on the Other
hand. speaking for the society, ad-
mitted this claim but contended that
the presidents notification to Mrs
Hungerford that the society would
not be responsible for her bill was
sufficient even If Burns had unwit-
tingly engaged her, the presidents
notification Cancelled the engagement.
Decision was given for the plain
tiff to recover the full amount
claimed with costs. Notice of an
appeal was filed.
