JEALOUS HUSBAND
 RIOT AT DEAD OF NIGHT

Green-eyed jealousy was the cause of bringing Ernest Caldwell, a mason, residing at 27 Buckingham street, be- fore Judge Wilder in the city court, this morning, charged by the officers with committing a breach of peace at ? a. m. today, when his recrimina- tions towards his wife awakened the entire neighborhood and caused patrol men to- enter the house and appre- hend him
 Mrs. Clara Caldwell and her son, Clarance, both testified that other than insane jealousy, and drink, which caused him to abuse her and ether wise scandalize the neighboring resi- dents, Caldwell was an ideal husband. But his jealousy extended to even the fi1ia1 affections shown his mother by their son
 Asked by Judge Wilder in conc1u- sion of the testimony if the prisoner did not think the lesson taught by his arrest would have salutary effect up- on his future passions, Caldwell ad- mitted the schooling had been thor ough and he was remanded to the care of the probation officer for a period of one month

Fairfield, Sept. Mrs. Gertrude B. Scott of New York, for the past sea- son a resident of Fairfield Beach, gambled with the State motor vehicle laws and is the gainer thereby Mrs Scott is the owner of an auto which bears a New York license. Under the Connecticut laws license must be taken out for a car that has been in the State for more than 30 days.
 Mrs. Scott has been in Fairfield since the beginning of summer, but she took a chance at evading the talk ing out of the license. This morning she was arrested and brought before Justice Bacon Wakeman. She plead ed guilty and twas fined $5 and costs. amounting to $14.16. It so happened that this was her last day in Fair field, and that when arrested she was on her return to New York.
 The court could only impose fine and costs, but could not compel Mrs. Scott to secure a Connecticut license As the license would cost $3O, Mrs Scott is in s15.84, the difference be- tween the State license and the fine and costs.
 After the court Mrs. Scott stated that it was not ignorance of the laws which brought her into court. She admitted that she took a chance and got away with it. Last year she stated she was in Ohio on New York license for six months and dld not take out an Ohio license The Ohio law is the same as Connecticut relative to time in the State

Syndicalists Organize For Pur- pose of Forcing King VictOrs Government to Make Repre- sentationS to Washington in Behalf of the Two Italians Who Have Been Held With out Trial Since Last January

Rome. Sept.

 The Ettor and Giovanniti case has been causing the most intense feeling in Italy for some time In parliament. Deputies Chisa, a Republican, Todrec- ca and Carino. Socialists, Meda, and demanded that the Rome government make the matter an international is- sue. Though no action was taken 1here is no question that the demand majority of the people.
 Newspapers have published columns conservative journals alike declaring. substantially, as Ia Tribuna IllHstra- ta put 1t. that Ettor and Giovanniti are "the victims of the capitalists s who provoked the strike at Lawrence, Mass by terrible conditions"
 Another newspaper, LInternaziona1e, appeals to SyndicalistS throughout Europe to make the case their own. The Courriere Del Sur, the Courriere Itala and the Secolo are among other 11ewspa perS which have expressed themselves similarly

Charleston, ". Va. Sept. Five thousand West Virginia miners from the Paint and Cabin Creek districts, 15 miles away, returned to their hills from here, today. The state troops prevented their proposed gathering. last night, on the capitol grounds to demand of Governor G1asscock the abolition of the guard system
 The mine operators suggested that such a demonstration was unneces- sary. They declared that a street pa rade, last night, did not add strength to the cause of the miners. Seeing a cordon of soldiers about the capitol, the miners quickly changed their plans and marched to Kanawha. Mother" Jones, 80, was the principal speaker
 Many had feared that serious trou- b1e would result when the miners learned that soldiers had been sta- timed at the capitol to prevent mass meeting. But the miners were peace able. The marched coatless and un- formed.
 After the meeting a resolution ad- dressed to Governor GlaSscock asking that mine guards be kept ou the mine country, after martial law enoed, was adopted.

AMNESIA VICTIM
 SENT TO HOSPITAL
Unable to Tell His Name, Man
 is Held For Observation

The unknown, John Doe, again ap- peared in city court this morning in the hope that he might be able to answer to the charge of drunkenness preferred against him. After a futile effort on the part of officers, detec- tives and others to ascertain his name or condition. he was referred zto the surgeons for further inspection.
 Drs. Hart and Curley of the emer- gency hospital submitted him to a superficial examination, and through gentle pressure upon an old scar over the left frontal bond at one time were sanguine of bringing back his escaped memory
 It is thought that he once suffered a fracture of the skull or submitted to an operation, and that through a possible recent beating at the hands of unknown parties, his present loss of memory resulted. He was sent to the Bridgeport hospital for scrutiny.

Westport, Sept. 7.-Representative William H. Burr, member of the last assem bly,, has renouneed his faith in the Republican party, and has joined forces with the Bull Moose move ment. Along with him go many of his Republican friends. Representa- tive Burr has for years been staunch Republican. and has been probably the best Republican vote gette1. in the town. The party has heaped many honors upon him. This year he refused to accept a denomination for representative. It is now runored that he will be the choice of the Bull Moose party for that position.
 Last week ins the Republican eau GUS, Representative Burr was defeat ed by Harry Sherwood as a delegate to the Republican state convention.
 It is the opinion of Representative Burr that there are plenty of good progressives in Westport who will be ready and willing to get together in a. town caucus and elect delegates to the state convention.

CHAPTER xxx.


The General History now in use IN
the schools contains a picture of the
bust OF julius Caesar from the mu-
scum Of the Lauvre.
Look at that picture, and you will be
reminded of the youn Jacksonville
lawyer who sat outside the railing a
good part of the session making cross
marks or circles opposite his list OF
members, and from time to time max
ing arguments before committees.
He is a lean man. Compare him
with John T. Harper over there, the
representative from Escambia county.
Harper Is q farmer. He Is heavily
built. His eyes are as calm as Lakes
Alice and Julia in Wewahitchka when
they hold the inverted sky on still
night. Harper has the judicial de-
tachments of forests, or a battleship
steady In tumbled waters. Harper Is
like a big Goth who threw the blade Of
his battle axe into the trunk of a man
with the same unconcern he would
swing chopping axe into the cypress
tree. Harper looks like he was Great
ed by God out of the same wood from
which God created the redwood trees
of California and the old rocks at Jupi-
ter Inlet contemptous OF the fretrui

per tired. He would finally hew

stances and get back to a friendlo log
at home from which through blonde
smoke rising from good plug-cut to-
bacco he could see the delicious very
pale green field Of sugar cane over
which two very black crows were ny
ing toward pine trees.
But this man Doggett is municipal,
urban. crowded, taut as a banjo string,
tense as a panther, dangerous as a
gattling gun, quick as a cat. The fever
OF the city is in his bones. The silence
os the Dead Lakes for him is one with
Ninevah and Tyre. The battleShip
agility and tyranny and precision claim
this man Doggett forevermore. Once
