JEFFERSON
GETS LICENSE
10 OPERATE NEGRO SALOON
Colorcd Prccinctman From the Fifth
Ward Shows Glass As Orator and
Council Grants Him "a License.

Mr.. James jefferson, precinct COM
mitteeman from the Fifth ward, rep
resentative colored man, made an APP
| plication for and received license to
conduct a saloon on south First
street to take the place of the colored
clubs, now operating, and against
which complaints have been frequent
ly registered with the police at the
Monday evening session of the city
council. 1t was the opinion of the
council that the saloon under the
management of Mr.. Jefferson would
be conducted according to law and be
a means for the adjustment of the
colored clubs. The place Mr.. Jeffer-
son will operate will cater exclusively
to the colored trade.
Burst of Oratory.
Mr.. Jefferson in addressing the
council relative to the application
made a speech which was sublime in
it's simplicity. Councilman Miller IA
vored the establishment of the saloon
in the uptown district near police pro-
lection. This called for a burst of
oratory on the part of Mr.. Jefferson,
who said First street was not out of
the way, and that if his place of bust
ness was established up town 'some
night gang of Front street toughs
would come along and clean out the
colored saloon, for a white man, no
matter who or what he is, thinks he
is better than a colored boy" Mr..
Jefferson guaranteed the council that
he would conduct an orderly place of
business, and failure to do SO will
mean the loss of his license.

SHIP MEN FOR VALLEY FARMS
Farmers Forced to Send Away for
Men While Idlers Loaf on Front
Street-Polioe Rule.

Farmers of the Yakima valley can
secure no men to do the ranch work
Good wages and letter food is no in
ducement to the Front street toilers
and spinners, and the demand for
hands has become so brisk that the
employment agencies are sending to
Seattle for men to fill the vacant
places. Friday Chas. Walker of the
Red Cross Employment agency ship
ped fifteen men for farm work from
Seattle, for work in the hop yards of
the Highland Hop Co., in the Mckee
who are putting their property in
shape for the coming season. Most Of
the Seattle shipment are young men
who have come west from the eastern
centers and, according to the letter
written from Seattle, were anxious to
secure employment in the Yakima val
ley.
Many to Alaska.
Work on the Copper River Railroad
IN Alaska has proven a lure to many
.aborers, who are being shipped to a
new country with the offer of good
wages. Local employment offices have
shipped many men during the past
week to the north and about SO have
signed up for the coming week. The
abroad construction work in the Yak
ina valley and on the Columbia river
is still short of men, and difficulty is
being experienced in finding men and
teams for the jobs.
Lots of Men and Jobs.
The employment agencies employ
! IS and the police say there are plenty
of idle men and jobs, but the trouble
is too make the two parts mix. They
viii stand in the shadow of a call for
men, and talk socialism and PROFOUND
solutions for live problems, but shur
the prospects of being torn away from
the Front street bars. The activity OF
! the police in running men out of towr
has caused the element to spend theil
days and nights in the saloons and dc
nc. often venture out into the opeT
for fear of arrest. A new rule of the
department prevents any officer from
wandering into a saloon, and getting c
line on the loafers, and this rule has
resulted in many men who will no
work being able to elude the law, land
forced to work.

BUILDING DATED FROM 1855
Jacob Kiefer Only Surviving of Excel. siOr's Who Were Earliest Fire Fight. CTS - New Structure to be of Buff Brick and Steel.

With the tearing down of the old structure at Main and Golden Hill streets, which was completed to-day disappears an ancient landn ark. In its place will soon be erected a modern building at a present cost of $4O,00C and an ultimate cost of $150, ,0O0O. Here in the quarters of the Berger Dry Goods Co.,. was once located the old Excelsior Engine Company, of which only surviving member. The building was built in 1855.

 The new building which has been planned for George Berger will have a frontage of 31 feet on Main street. It will be two stories high to a point 90 feet back, and one story high for the remaining distance to Middle street, SO that its first floor will be IFS feet deep. The foundations are to be laid that the building may subsequently, be erected to five stories. The cost of the work now to be done is estimated at $40, 900. The cost of carrying out the complete plan is estimated at $150, ,O00 The materials will be steel and buff brick. A feature of the building will be 30 lar 7e plate glass windows, which will make it one of the finest buildings for store purposes in the city. MT. Berger's plan is to rent the structure for a department store with offices above.
 The contract has been awarded to the Gillette Construction Company of New Haven.

MARRIED 30 YEARS
 BUT NOT A WIFE
Thus Mrs. Clark States Claim of Mrs. Cornwall, Administratrix of
 Clark's Estate.
LEGITIMACY OF cHlLliEN INVOLVED

In a squabble over the estate of the
 late William E. Clark. who died ir
 Stratford last November, the validity
 of his marriage to Mrs. Nora Ives Clark is lmpugned, and the legitimacy of his two daughters is challenged. The estate is probably not more than $4.00t and certainly is less than $5,OO0. The
 scandal is disclosed in an action brought by Mrs Clark, through her attorneys, in which she asks for a writ of prohibition forbidding Probate Judge Charles H. Peck from passing on the validity of her marriage, upon a function of the Superior Court and not of the probate court. Judge George w. Wheeler has ordered a hearing upon the application, for Mon- day, July 5.
 The story begins Dec. 2, 1874, when Mrs. Clark, then the attractive Leon- ora Lester, was married to one Charles Ives. in this city.
 Jan. g. 1S77 a little more than 2 years later, Leonora Ives was mar ried to William Clark, in iNew Haven, by Rev. E. E. Beardsley.
 Judge Stevenson, who is counsel for the sisters of Clark, one of whom is administratrix of his estate, claims that Ives was alive when the second took place and that no legal separation had ever occurred.
 In her complaint Mrs. Clark says that she was married to Clark and that she lived with him uninteruptedly until he died, for more than 30 years, bearing him several children, of whom two now live, Elizabeth M. Hayes, who is married, and Florence D. Clark a. minor most of age, both of whom live in this city. the former with her husband and the latter with her The complaint further says that Harriett A. Cornwall, a sister of the husband, was appointed admins tratrix, and that she conspired with New Haven and Anna IL. Tibballs, to defraud the plaintiff and her children of their respective rights in the estate of their husband and father, and that in order to do this the said adminfs- tratrix has threatened that she could and would establiShe the illegality of the plaintiffs marriage, and the illeg1t- imacy of her children, and that to this end she has filed with the Probate Court in Stratford a, petition for an ascertainment of heirs in which she states the plaintiff was not the legal wife of the deceased and that he left no legal children.
 The same petition also asks the court, Mrs. Clark complains, to re- yoke her allowance of $1O a week from support of herself and her minor daughter.
 The ground upon which the writ of prohibition is sought is said to be unique in legal proceedings in Fair field county. Mrs. Clark's counsel are Attorneys George Kane and Joshua Meltzer.
