Governor Wilson is by birth, educa-

WHAT TO DO AND HOW
Good Street Manners-No
Place for Gum Chewing
and Candy Eating-Un-
graceful Feminine Tricks

1t is the ambition of every right
thinking woman to know how to act
correctly at al times. But as it too
often happens, she who is so careful
of her table etiquette, her pronuncia-
ton, her social manners and usages,
spoils all her efforts by forgetting
tial as all the rest.
OF course a we'll bred girl, or one
trying to be, is not like y to scream
and act .boisterously or unladylike in
any public place. But there is a GER
tain decorous department even in
walking that too many fail to observe.
Did you ever notice the way some
feminine pedestrians swing their arms
until they appear absolutely grotes-
que? The lady of other days was
Instructed that the proper way to
walk was to hold the arms closely to
the sides. OF course she avoided any
semblance of awkward stiffness, but
secured repose of bearing. Her
manner was entirely antagoristic to
the nervous energy which the 'twitchy
stride. the swinging arms, and the
moving jaws indicate.
For it is indeed too true that the
chewing habit has taken a firm hold
on those who profess to be above the
average in the matter o. form"
To see girl going along with grim
gum that she switches from one side
of her mouth to the other is repul
sive. 1t Is as bad as to see a man
equally energetic with a cud of tobac-
This street habit should be nipped
in the bud. Though not as repul-

exhibitions. To my way of think

be abolished. though l know many

DECISIONS BY
SUPREME COURT
OF CONNECTICUT

Among the Fairfield county cases
decided yesterday by the Supreme
Court of Connecticut were the fol-
lowing:
Ella J. FOX and others against the
city of South Norwalk; an appeal
asking for a, reappraisal Of benefits
and reassessment Of damages result
ing from the layout, widening and
grading of public street. Judge
eager appointed a committee to make
the reappraisal and reassessment and
rendered judgment on the report
from which the plaintiff appealed.
Error in part is found by Judge
Thayer. In the report interest was
allowed in favor of the plaintiffs on
the assessment from Dec. 49, 1908 and.
insofar as interest was allowed, the
judgment is erroneous.
Carol D. Ryder, executor, against
G. Frederick Lyon, trustee, and 9TH
ers, an action for the construction of
the will of Joseph T.. Bates. late OF
Danbury, and reserved by Judge Cas-.
for the advice of the. Supreme court.
The Superior court is advised that
Ryder shall transfer to Lyon all the
estate remaining after Ryder's final
account is settled and that Lyon
shall pay to Abigail S. Bates the use
and income of the estate during her
lifetime. At her death he shall pay
three legacies provided for and shall
invest and care for the rest Of the
estate until Joseph Bates Sanford
shall arrive at his majority. Sam
ford shall then have the use and in
come of the estate during his life and
at his death it shall be distributed
among his descendants OR their repre-
sentatives. If he dies without des-
cendants or Representative the estate
shall go to the First Universalist So
ciety Of Danbury until that shall fail
to provide ministry and preaching
for the space of one year. If this
happens the estate shall be distri-
buted as intestate

NORWEGIAN PARLIAMENT
CABLES GREETING
TO AMUNDSEN,

Christiana, March 8-Today's meet
ing of parliament was devoted to
clarifying the success of Captain
Amundsen in reaching the South Pole.
1t was decided to cable him con-
gratulations and the fact that there
was no hesitation in doing so was ac-
copied as conclusive proof that the
cablegrams received by the King,
which have been withheld from the
public in order not to prevent Amund-
sen selling the story Of his achieve.

Pole.
This belief was added TO by the
address Of the President who said: s

receipt Of news that Captain Amund-
sen and his comrades have succeeded
in planting the Norwegian flag at the
