Tuesday night at the armory. There
was most encouraging audience as

of universal interest; so in spite of the
rain there we're about fifty people

presided with hts usual dignity. The
report of Mr.. Henderson's work has
already found space in The Journal,

THE LAST MINSTREL.
(Part -

The way was long, the wind was
cold,
The Minstrel was infirm and old;
His wihthered cheek and tresses gray
Seemed to have known a better day;
The harp, his sole remaining joy,
Was carried by an orphan boy.
The last of all the bards was he
Who sung of border chivalry;
For, well-a-day! their date was fed
His tuneful brethren all were dead
And he, neglected and oppressed,
Wish'd to be with them at rest.
No more on prancing palfry borne,
He carotid light as lark at morn,
No longer courted and caress'd
High placed in hall welcome guest
He pour'd to lord and lady gay
His unprecedented lay;
Old times were changed, old man.
ners gone.
A stranger filled the Stuart's throne;
The bigots of the iron time
Had called his harmless art crime.
A wandering harper, scorn'd and
poor,
He begged his bread from door to
door
And tuned to please a peasants ear
The harp a king had loved to hear.
He passed where Newark's stately
tower
Looks out from Garrow'se birchen
bower;
The minstrel gazed with wishfuI
No humber resting place was nigh;
With hesitating step at last
The embattled portal arch he pass'd,
Whose ponderous crate and massy
bar
Had oft roll'd back the tide of war,
But never closed the iron door
Upon the desolate and poor.
The duchess mark'd his weary pace,
His timid mien and reverent face,
And babe her page the menials tell
That they should tend the old man
we'll;
For she had known adversely,
Tho born in such a high degree;
In pride of power, in beauty's bloom,
Had wept DER Monmouth's bloody
tomb.
When kindness had his wants sup
piled
And the old man was gratified
Began to rise his minstrel pride;
And he began to talk anon
OF good Earl Francis. dead and gone,
And of Earl Walter, rest him, God!
A drawer ne'er to battle rode;
And how full many tale he knew
OF the old warriors of Buccleuch;
And would the noble Duchess deign
To listen to an old mans strain,
Tho stiff his hand, his voice tho
weak,
He thought even yet the sooth to
speak,
That If he loved the harp to hear
He could make music to her ear.

COMMON PLEAS COURTS
NOT TO BE ABOLISHED.
State Bar Association Decides They
Do 4 Good Service.

The State Bar association of Con-
nect1cut held its annual meeting in
New Haven Monday. President George
u. Watrous presided. and James f.
Wheeler acted as secretary. The at
tendance was fairly large.
The association voted not to abolish
the common pleas courts and against
the proposition to prevent states at
torneys from practicing in civil courts.
The committee on judicial admin
istration had to consider the follow
ing questions.
I. Whether the court of common
pleas should be abolished and the
increased.
be given uniform and greater jurisdic-
ton, and also SO they may have juris-
dictfon in cases of naturalization. and
whether town or district courts should
be established with uniform jurisdic-
ton to try all cases not exceeding
S100.
8. Whether attorneys for the state
should be prohibited from trying civil
jury cases.
A. Whether there should be a. stat
ute or a rule of court providing that
upon the final decision of a motion
for a disclosure. the party aggrieved
by such ruling NAV be given an i'm
mediate right to appeal from that de-
cision to the supreme court OF errors
prior to the final judgment in the
caise.
common pleas courts do a good serv-
ice and ought not to be abolished. The
recommendation was ADOPTED.
In regard to states attorneys they
say:
1--WE do not believe that a states
attorney should be prohibited from
trying civil causes to the jury. If it
Is true that an attorney for the state
SO far abuses his prerogative as to
exercise an unfair influence on jury
men, the matter should be called to the
attention of the Judges, and the REM
edy, if such an evil exists. lies with
them"
They also reported that the conten-
ton that more judges for the superior
court are needed is not well taken.
This was adjusted, as was the report
on the establishment of town or dis
trict courts. They say:
1.-THE question of the establishment
of town or district courts is, in our
opinion a matter of local convenience,
and therefore to be decided by the
community affected. We do not deem
it the part of the bar of the state to
make any general recommendation
such as the one called for"
AS to city courts the committee
says:
"The jurisdiction OF city courts is,
in our opinion too large now in many
cases. If any change is made in the
Jurisdiction of these courts 1t should
be by reducing it to at least that of
the court of common pleas in the
county in which the particular city is
located. Furthermore, we do not be-
lieve that any useful purpose will be
served by giving to these courts iu-
risdiction to naturaiize aliens. The
question of naturalization 10 becoming
today far more important than 1t ever
was, and the granting of naturaHza-
ton papers requires in many cases the
exercise of the soundest judicial judg-
ment which should fbe uninfluenced
by any political or partisan considera-
tion.''
On the motion of Judge M2thewson
the city court matter was referred
back to the committee.
The recommendation OF the commit
tee in regard to the fourth PROPOSE
ton was adopted.
