FROM POORH0USE
 TO $75,O0O AWARD
Waterbury Probate Court Declares Aged Mary Ga hill Lawful Widow of Jo- seph Kindregan Three Newtown Old Women to Prove Sisters Death

Waterbury, Jan. 2O.-Mrs. Mary Cahil, seventy-eight years old, has been pronounced by the Probate Court the legal widow of Joseph w. Kindregan and awarded $1,0O0 and a weekly allowance until the estate, which is estimated at $75,O00, is set tied. She had been an inmate of the Home for the Aged Poor in San Francisco, under the management of the Little Sisters of the Poor, but is now with friends in New York city.
 Before his death MT. Kindregan as- serted that he had been divorced from Mary Cahill in New York in 1856. The Probate Court here holds that divorce invalid and decrees that the large estate belongs to the aged wom- an.
 At the hearing yesterday afternoon Attorney Frank Kenna, representing some of the heirs stated that he had proof of the death of Maria Kind regan, a sister of Joseph, at the age of twenty-two years in Danbury Some question had been raised as to the death of Maria and MT. Kenna said he wanted it settled, as the ques- ton was of prime importance to his clients.
 Judge Byrne designated Tuesday of next week as a day on which evi- dence might be offered MT. Kenna said he would bring three old women living in NeWtown to show that Miss Kindregan died in Danbury and was buried in Sandy Hook Cemetery.

CHAkMS fUH LUCK.

The Sort of Superstitions Some Wall
 Street Men Harbor.
 Let all the dear readers, feminine gender, take cognizance of what fol- lows, for surely the fairer sex is, after all, the stronger sex. Women know DO such abject obedience to superstitious fears and signs as do the men. With view to eliciting something of inter- est, the writer had a chance to put certain question to a captain of indus try. "Tut, tut" he replied suspicious ly, you'd be getting me into trouble, would you?' With a promise that no names would be mentioned, he finally agreed to tell thing or two.
 The question was. Aren't men in Wall street carrying all sorts of queer things to try to change their luckT In answer to this the writer heard some curious stories. One man of worldwide fame for example, carries a cane in the center of which there is a slender steel rod. Circling the rod there are rings made of leather and of hard rubber, like the washers that
 
 made of leather from the soles of the shoes worn by the millionaire during what he considered his luckiest year. Elephants and pigs as lucky charms there are of course in plenty, but the proper caper is to wear the animal pinned inside on the watch fob pocket. Then there is another great fnancier who carries with him gold ink well and would never sign document with fluid from another receptacle. Once upon time, when he had, say, only a picayune million or two, he signed a paper in deal that doubled, then tre- bled, his wealth The ink used that day was emptied into long gold tube or well that he now carries. The ink was used up,' but to the well. so he thinks, the good luck power has been translated. Lucky coins pass from fa- ther to son in several of the multimil- lionaire families, and the man who in- herits them would never be without them. We have few secret drawers in desks or doors in houses. as they had in olden times, but there are many se- cret pockets in the suits made by smart tailors.-Brooklyn Life.

JACKSON'S
High Class Vaudeville.

The regular change of the vaude- vile program took place this after noon and a new bill of equal excel lence was ushered in and will hold the boards for the remainder of the week. A pantomonic team of great ability, Sylvan and ONeal are the headliners and they present dis tinct vaudeville novelty entitled Fun at the Sea Shore.'' It is @ pantomonic absurdity of the rollicking sort and has the audience in @ conVulslve state of laughter from start to finish. It is one of the most pretentious vaude- vile offerings that has been seen at Jackson's, and is afforded a magnI- ficent stage setting and @ wealth Of mechanical and electrical accessories As a special added feature, Duffy Sawtelle and Duffy, widely known trio of entertainers, present their lat est and greatest offering, a tabloid musical farce called, Naughty Mott sJr." This act is filled with comedy of the pleasing sort, and their clever limitations of popular and celebrated stars scored heavily. The younger member of the company made a big hit with his eccentric dancing special ty a Ia George Conan. Tommy Dug gan, offer sa screaming monologue and cornered every laugh in the house. His numerous hits on local personages of note went "big." The Ramsey sisters present an unique and pleasing musical act and won immed- fate favor with the audience. No better set of pictures have ever been shown in this city, than the subjects which comprise today's program. They are exceptionally interesting and entertaining, and comprise entirely, subjects which have never before been seen in Bridgeport. As the pie lures are changed every day, lovers of this form of amusement should endeavor to see this series tonight. Vaudeville will be the offering at Jackson's all next week with the eX- ception of Saturday, Jan. 29, when Mile. Adeline Genee comes here in the great New York musical success, ''The Silver Star" The program will change on Thursday, and the pictures every day.

ABOMINABLE TROLLEY SERVICE. Editor Farmer:
 ,s Sir-As reader of your valuable paper, as well as one of the many Z residents of the locality interested in trolley reforms, I take the liberty of .sjmposing on your space to the extent E2of protest against another wrong, sasnnd that is along the line of negli- s5gence in placing lenders on the cars. 2;I have interested myself sufficiently in the matter to have counted at least 20 Large and small cars without these le- gal requirements and safeguards against life and limb.
 Many of the cars are run to the suburbs without headlights. With all f.Of the abominable service it would seem as though the company was aim ing to get into litigation, even greater ] than the number perusal of the al- most daily accident, as chronicled in the Farmer, indicates it already has on it's hands
 1t would appear to be in lie for the city or State officials to act in the matter of enforcing this law

The Reward She Bestowed Upon Those
 Who Entertained Her.
 Human nature is a queer thing" said the philosopher.
 "Not long ago some friends of mine got badly down on their luck. Times were so hard for them that they scarce ly knew which way to turn for the necessities of life.
 At that most inopportune time they received word from a woman friend Of theirs that she was coming to visit them for a few days. They were dis mayed, but by the exercise of great in- genuity and by depriving themselves to almost the vanishing point they managed to entertain her and really to set before her most excellent meals.
 After sine left their affairs contin- ued to grow even worse, if possible, and while they kept up brave front was near enough to them so l couldn help knowing all about it, though they were not aware that I saw the situa- tion.
 T thought it was time some of their friends came to the rescue if suitable wa, could be devised, so l wrote tue woman who had been their guest being slightly acquainted with her my self-told her I would head the process sion. would like her aid and would be glad of any suggestions she could make as to a practical plan for helping our old friends without hurting their prop CT pride.
 "uer reply gave me something to think about for many a day. She said she didn't care to help them, as they already lived too well and set too ex- pensive a table; that when she had visited them they had a great deal more to eat than was necessary and that they must be very extravagant people; that it was undoubtedly their own fault they were in such trouble and that it would probably teach them to be more economical in future!'- New York Press.

RAZlNG THE
 WRONG HOUSE

Yes terday Miss Agnes .Campion, who lives in and owns the building next to the club house. went shopping and when she returned, she found work men tearing down her home. She ordered them off, but the men insist ed that they had been ordered by their employer, Joseph H. Boardman, to tear the building down to the foundations.
 Telephone conversations revealed the error of the foreman, who sup posed that the old Campion house and not the club house was to be done away with. Miss Campion says she will institute heavy damage suits against everybody concerned.

CADILLAC OFF ON LONG
CROSS-C0UNTRY TOUR
A. B. Bowman Leaves on Run
Which Is to End in Chicago

A. B. Bowman, with one companion,
is now en- route to Chicago in a 1910
Cadillac 30. Bowman left Los Angeles
at $3.50 Thursday morning and spent the
first night at Santa Barbara, arriving
there at $3.50 in the afternoon after a
very easy run, making both the Casitas
grades on the intermediate speed. From
Santa Barbara the party continued on
to San Luis Obispo, and will work up
the coast, stopping one day in San
Francisco. From there the route will
lead through Sacramento, over the
Placerville grade to Reno. From there
the Cadillac will be driven over the
Wyoming plains and across Nebraska
to omaha. Just what route will be
followed from Omaha to Chicago is un-
decided, as Bowman Is making the
trip at easy stages and will go wher-
ever fancy dictates.
The car is a regular equipped touring
car, with large trunk on the rear.
The tonneau is used for carrying a
complete camping outfit and an extra
supply of fuel and tires. This will un-
doubtedly be one of the longest pleas
ure tours of the year. Bowman is a
Cadillac enthusiast, and is confident his
car will have no trouble making the
worst of grades and plowing through
the deepest sand.

LOOK OUT FOR THE DEAD
ONES WARNS AUTO MAN
Says Tires Kept in Warm Places
Are No Good

'There is one most essential thing for
persons to remember when buying a
new tire, and that is, whether the tire
is alive, as it was when it came from
the factory" said w. D. Newerf OF the
w. D. Newerf Rubber company, the
other day. "Tires, when carried in
stock, are so varying in sizes and
styles that not each of them is wanted
every day, but no stock is complete
without having them, as you will OBJ
serve from the manner in which they
are piled away here, consequently the
surroundings must be in harmony
with the rubber product itself.
For example, you will note how
perfectly cool this wareroom is in
which are stored the stock of tires,
and which was built wholly with hav-
ing in mind the retention of the re-
siliency and life which exists in tires
when in perfect condition. Kept in a
warm temperature and room that
'sweats,' the life is absorbed from the
tire, and when you purchase one which
has so been kept, you are apt to have
lifeless article, sure to go far short
in the wear and fail to give the salts
faction a well kept tire should give"
