GREAT MID-SEASON VALUES
 IN CREDIT CLOTHING

Just at this time of the year, when possibly new spring clothes have not yet been bought, an opportunity is offered to get the best that there are at mid-season reduction prices, which means that ladies may acquire tailored suits in the latest fashions, which will be worn for the balance of the spring and all summer at prices very much below their regular cost. Such occurrences are generally looked for from cash stores, but when a credit clothing store, and such a credit clothing store as Caesar Misch, Inc, announces an event of this character, it is one that will make every woman do her utmost to be a fashionable, serviceable suit that she wants. Practically that is all there is to do, because whatever pur- chases are made may be sent home immediately without any initial pay ment being made, and then the pur- so small that truly they are scarcely noticed.
 The liberal credit extended by Cea- sar Misch. Inc, is a selling plan that has no "outs.'' There are no red tape features to be gone through, but everything is made as simple and easy as though a simple charge account
 
 difference, that instead of having to pay a lump sum at given time, the purchase price is split up into small parts.
 The stock of Ceasar Misch Inc, this spring has been one that has attract ed particular attention not only from the ladies of the vicinity, but from men as well, for it has practically in cluded all the leading fashions in such variety that all have been able to suit their tastes perfectly and appear at their best on all occasions.

CONNECTICUT CATHOLICS
 ELEVEN NATIONALITIES
Cosmopolitan Character of the Church Most Pronounced in
 This City.

There are within tile confines of the diocese of Hartford no less than eleven nationalties worshipping, according to the Catholic faith and they have. with two exceptions, their own churches and priests, says the Catho- lie Transcript. While all these are of the Roman rite, two of the nationali- ties are represented also by separate parishes which follow what is called the Greek-Rumenian rite. These are the Hungarians (Magyars) and the Gallicians who thus, observe the rites which prevail in the localities from which they come; they are all in com- munion with the Holy See. The rest of this Pentecostal agglomeration is made up of the following: French, Italian, Poles, Germans, Lithuanians, Slovenian, Slovacks, Portuguese and Syrians. The two last named attend services in the English speaking churches.
 The foreign population is gathered largely in the principal cities. Bridge port is the most cosmopolite and boasts of the one faith preached in as many as eleven tongues. Hartford has five churches for non-English speak ing people; New Haven, Waterbury and Meriden, four each; New Britain, three and Ansonia two. Other places which have one church for one or the other of these races are South Nor walk, Bristol, Willimantie, Terryville. Derby, Middletown, New London, Nor wich, Rockville, Stamford, Torrington and Union City.
 There are 1O2 students at St. Thomas Preparatory seminary, Hartford, and 77 young men in grand seminaries, 34 of whom are abroad in Italy, France, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland and Hungary all studying for the priest hood

ANONYMOUS POSTER ON YALE CAMPUS
 ASSAILS DEAN JONES

A poster containing matter uncom- plimentary to Dean Jones of the aca- demic department at Yale. was found on the trees in the courtyard of Van derbilt hall yesterday. The appear ance of the poster created stir among the members of the senior class.
 As soon as the news spread around the campus there was wild rush to read it as it is the only one on the campus.
 Following as it does, the one which appeared along the same lines few months ago, it's appearance is watched with unusual interest. This poster deals with the wrongs of the senior class which it is alleged. to have suf- fered At the hands of Dean Jones. Although no action was taken by the faculty on the other poster which ap- peared, it is believed that this one will be taken up without delay by the faculty and that expulsiens are likely to follow.

NEWPORT FOUND NOT ! GUILTY. AND SENT
 TO INSANE ASYLUM

Walter K. Newport was late yes terday afternoon found not guilty ot assault with intent to murder Attor- ney Howard C. Webb on January 21 on the ground of insanity in the New Haven, Superior Court, Judge George w. Wheeler then committed him to the State Hospital for the Insane. at Mid dletown for five years.
 Out of the whole legal tangle which began some months back with the >di- voree proceedings against Walter K Newport and which finally resulted in the shooting of Attorney Howard C. Webb last January, the most pleasing Incident for the man adjudged insane by mental experts was the verdict an- nounced yesterday. With his hands behind his back, his lips compressed and a tense expression on his face Newport yesterday afternoon paced the courtroom in the rear of the jury box steadily while the jurymen were deliberating for over five hours to de- eide his fate. That the man expect ed a different verdict from the one given is evident. It was learned last night that Newport had eaten next to nothing from the beginning of the week and was on the verge of ner- vous breakdown.

Strings on the City's Purse
(Waterbury Republican, )

(WdIorDury RopuDllCdn.)
 The fact that the city of Waterbury finds it difficult to sell four per cent bonds at par just at the present time is no reflection upon the credit of the city. It only proves that money is tight. No doubt one-quarter or one half of one per cent, additional inter est, if offered, would sell the bonds If the city might, sell four per cent. bonds for what they would bring on the market, doubtless a fraction below par would sell the bonds, but the city is tied at both ends of the sale to par and four per cent interest at a time when there is no market for the goods at tbat price.
 The form of the bonds is also pre- scribed by legislative act, and un- less market conditions change there seems no relief until the legislature shall again meet and grant such re- lief. It is at least strange condl- tion that a city, prosperous, growing, with a population around 75,000 and stricted in it's borrowing power by a set of men who are themselves not res- idents of cities.
 The majority of the legislators of Connecticut are from towns not incor- porated and these towns may con tract debts without authority. The selectmen draw the town orders and these orders draw such interest as may be agreed upon without legisla- tive restriction. It is time that cities demand and receive the right to de- eide the matter of bonding themselves for permanent Improvements, with no restriction but that of a referendum, and perhaps a legal limit fixed by the state of say ten per cent, Of the grand list. Even that restriction is not necessary as the credit of no city is strong enough to carry it very much past that limit, and@the natural laws of finance and credit would regulate it's borrowing power.
 New York city a short time since by offering four and one-quarter per cent on S50,000000 received bids for three times the amount. The credit of New York is no better than that of Waterbury. Perhaps, not as good, but whether or not, Waterbury with a splendid credit seems just now to be in a hole and helplessly so, by the in flexible terms to which she is re- stricted as to her borrowing power
