THE CLANRICARDE PLAQUE.

A Famous Specimen Of the Sixteenth
Century Goidsmith's Art.
One Of the greatest cinquecento jew
els In the world Is the Clanricarde
plaque. owned by Lord Clanricarde.
who IS known as the hermit peer and
who claims direct descent from the
kings of Connaught. He guards with
jealous care this precious example of
the goldsmith's art, keeping 1t safe
from possible thieves and the common
gaze in a bank vault, to which he
goes occasionally with great secrecy
to feast his eyes upon its magnificence.
Some years ago. by royal request. he
lent it to an art exhibition in London.
where it was admired and coveted by
some Of the greatest connoisseurs Of
Europe.
The huge disk is as delicately
wrought as a spiders web aud repre-
sents the figure of Hercules welding
a diamond sword. The sword blade
is composed Of q mass of perfectly
matched steel white stones, and a su.
perb blue diamond scintillates from
the hilt. The present owner inherited
1t from. his mother, who was a Miss
Canning before her marriage to the
Irish lord. and the plaque is practically
priceless. Aside from its value to col
lectors and its worth as a specimen Of
rare and exquisite art. it is incrusted
with fortune in jewels.-New York

John Sharp Williams, senator from
Mississippi, is one Of the picturesque
figures in congress. Two things make
him So One is his deafness. which Is
considerable, and which they say is
growing on him. As q result of 1t he
continually keeps his hand followed
to his ear and frequently has to ask to
have the question repeated to him. The
other is his habit-a result, prob
ably of his deafness-of moving about
the senate during debate. He does
not like to sit still. He walks-softly
and gracefully-from his chair toward
the man whom he is talking At, with
his right forefnger extended and &C.
cusing his opponent, and with his left
hand helping him to hear. Apparently
he never for a moment thinks that
he is conspicuous or picturesque.

BURNING OF WIDOWS.

The Horrible Rite india Maintained
For Over Twenty Centuries.
The abolition Of the horrid rite of
widow burning In India was decreed
by the British authorities in 1870.
The dreadful practice was found
there by the Macedonians under Alex
ander the Great 800 years before
Christ, and for more than twenty one
long, weary centuries did it repeat its
almost inconceivable torture and ago
ny upon the women of India. The
sacrifice, while not actually forced on
the wife, was SO strongly insisted on
by public opinion that it amounted to
a law, and its victims were legion.
Scores of widows were often burned
upon the funeral pile Of a single ia
jah. In Bengal, the head center OF
the monstrosity, thousands were sac
India was appalling.
The millions Of widowed women
were completely at the mercy Of the
remorseless superstition of the times.
The ministers Of Brahmanism told
the widow that her sacrifice was nee
essary as means of her own happi-
ness and that Of her husband in the
future state, and oftener than other
wise she consented to be burned along
with the dead body of her husband.
Unless she did this she was covered
with the maledictions and curses OF
the people, was virtually outlawed
and unceremoniously cast outside the
pale of human sympathy and consid-
Grafton and had to spend the rest Of
her days in degradation and wretch
edness 1t was death on the funeral
pile of her husband or a living death
Of contumely aud shame, Of loneliness
and misery.
The women of India can never dis
charge their debt of gratitude to Eng
land for the abolition of the suttee.-

SUMMER BIRDS
ARE RETURNING
FROM SOUTHLAND

New York, April 2.-The arrival of
many Summer birds from the South
the past week has been the most
dominant evidence of Spring about
New York.
The notable increase in the num-
bers of some species is attributed by
the officers of the Audubon Society
to the recent enactment and enforce
ment of more stringent game laws,
both North and South.
''The main flight Of the wild ducks
from the Southern marshes is now
apparent said Mr.. T. Gilbert Pear
son, secretary of the National Associa-
tion of Audubon Societies, today at
the headquarters, 1874 Broadway.
Their reported increase in numbers
fication of stopping the sale of
game by law in New York and 9TH
er Northern States"
Being unable to find market for
their birds, many pot-hunters in the
South have this past Winter abandon
ed their hitherto lucrative occupation,
and shipments from the South have
greatly decreased everywhere except
from Arkansas.
Lovers of Robin Red Breast are re-
joicing over the passage of the recent
law in Virginia which now renders 1t
illegal to kill Robins. Virginia has
heretofore been one of the seven
states in the Union which still legalize
tectionists, headed by the Audubon
Society, are today declaring their in
tention of continuing the campaign
until no where on the American con-
tinent can Robins longer be shot for
pot-pies.

MERIDEN CENTRAL LABOR
UNION DROPS SCHEME

At the meeting of the Meriden Cen
trail Labor Union held Monday even
ing it was voted to drop the matter
of securing a reduction in fares from
the Connecticut Company. A large
number of trolley men were present
at the evenings meeting and, although
nothing was given out, it is surmised
that after all sides were heard. it was
decided to drop the matter alto
gether.
Their action may have some bear
ing on the letter which was forwarded
recently by Superintendent Lee of the
Connecticut Company to the Common
Council, in which he stated that the
idea of obtaining twenty-five f1ve-cent
tickets for one dollar was impossible.
Furthermore, he declared that if any
thing, there would be an increase. es-
pecialIy on the inter-urban lines, where
the cost of maintenance is SO great.
Taking in all expenses. the wages of
the men, cost of power, equipment
and other incidentals, Mr. Lee is Of
the opinion that Meriden will be
lucky if. no increase is made on the
lines

$4,000 ITEM
IS OVERLOOKED
SOlOway Said He Didn't Figure
That Sum of Indebtedness
at Time of Inventory

New Haven, April 2.-The exami-
nation of Maurice SOloway was nm
ished before Referee Newton yester-
day in the hearing on the Soloway d
Katz estate. Soloway. in explanation
of the disappearance of SIS, 200 worth
of assets, declared that when he took
Samuel KatZ into partnership, thus
forming the firm of SolOway & Katz,
he made only a rough inventory OF
what he owned and what he owed
and that in that inventory he over
looked an Indebtedness of $25, 200
which he should have put into the in
ventory. Soloway said this without a
smile though almost everybody else
Smiled-audibIy.
In explanation of his big purchases
of flour he said that he had accounts
with the Pillsbury Mills, the Bay State
ing Company, the Lispman Milling
Company and others and these con-
tracts called FOR the delivery of the
flour at stated intervals. He was
afraid to stop ordering the flour, be-
cause the mills might think it strange
and come down on him. He also
swore that after buying the flour the
market dropped so that he was COM
PEELED to sell for $3.50 and 1910 flour
which he paid $5.25 a barrel for.
That is. s5.25 was the price but most
of it hadn't been paid for yet.

bought or when he sold it. He said
all he knew was that he wasn't a sue
cess at buying flour.
He was asked about $4,000 in
checks which were paid out during
the month of October. He didn't re-
member anything about any such
checks.
The hearing was adjourned until
Saturday morning at 1890.
Briefs were filed yesterday with
Judge Platt in the contempt cases
against soloway & Katz.
