Sincerity.
Give me the everyday sort of a man,
The fellow who laughs when he's
glad.
Give me the open faced, btg-hearted
The Teller who weeps when he's sad
Give me the man who says just what
he thinks
The Teller who's word is pure gold,
Give me the man who can always be
found
The Teller who's not bought and sold.
Give me the man who stands up to the
rack
The teller whose spirit ne'er bends,
Give me the man who is there with
the goods
The Teller who stands by his friends.
He may not be cultured or dandy in
dress.
His larnin may be pretty slim,
But if he has got the red blood in his
veins,
You can bank your last dollar on
him
Give me no fair weather, rolIfcking
friends
The fellers who flatter and fawn,
Give me no "jol1y good fellowship
guys
Who fly when the bank ron is gone
Give me the man who has hit adj the
bumps
The Teller who's travelled with truth;
Who knows what true pain and true
anguish can mean,
And is not discouraged forsooth.
He may be a roughneck and cuss just
q bit,
And be some uncouth in his tone;
But after the judgment I've got an idee
You'll find him quite close to the
throne.

Leroy Lewis, president of the Suffrage club, MEs; 3I James M,la A Frank L. Curtis, Mrs. Theodore Jud- son and Miss Emma Allen.
 Section il dealing with the powers of selectmen and charter enactment brought Conine to the floor with a fine display of rhetoric in which he grill- ed the charter as being cumbersome needs of Stratford but rather being taken with a few pencil changes from som othr city chartr. Judson gaining some other city charter. Judson gaining some remarks with the sally that he did not wish to interrupt the local Demosthenes when Conine said, ''I know the captain of the Old Guard does not like anyone else to butt in but If he does not keep quiet here I shall say some things with reference to his still being the captain of the Guard ''
 In reply Senator Judson said, You may say anything you want but I will be Johnny on the Spot to take care of you"
 Conine attempted to continue his speech but cries of Sit down. Five minutes are up'' and similar remarks attended with a rhythnat stamp ing of feet almost drowned his utter ances. Judson Jumping to his feet de- manded that the chair rule on the question of five minutes debate and after considerable hesitation and an insistent demand for action from var ious parts of the hall the rule was passed and an attempt made to cut the speaker off at this point He in sisted, upon being heard and talked interfuptedly for a period of about three minutes. A general discussion ended by adoption Of the section as also were sections twelve to twenty two without much further trouble.
 It appeared as if the general aStrat- ford voter had lost interest in the passing of the charter as a continual stream We're leaving the hall and but few speakers directly in the two for ward corners of the room were engag- ing in battle when the question of election of a Judge of Probate was taken up by Stanton and seconded by Judson. MT. Conine jumping to his feet without permission from the chair was scathingly arraigned for the interruption by MT. Judson who said: The first Demosthenes never express ed himself without first putting a mouthfuI of pebbles in his mouth and l shall hereafter bring a pocket-fu1I of them here for our local orator that he may pursue the same close lines of reasoning his predecessor
 MT. Stanton here took the. floor and introduced a motion providing for the direct election of all town officers.

ANNUAL REPORT
 OF CONNECTICUT
 HUMANE SOCIETY

Hartford. Jan. 29-In his report at the 32d annual meeting of the Con- necticut Humane Society, today, Pres ident William DeLoss Love said the w4or1z had been carried on with much success the past year. The best re- suits, he said, are obtained by CO., operation between the police and the society that offenders are few and there is more ready relief.
 Demands for branch societies in ru- raI communities he said, are largely increased and due to the degeneracy in native families and the phenomenal increase in foreign settlements.
 The practice of voluntary probation during the year, he said met with good results. Judges of Probate courts he thought ought to have the power to appoint probation officers the same as criminal courts.
 In the animal department, President Love said the work differed but lit tie from that of former years. The short hay crop of 1911 and the high cost of feed, he said, resulted, in some bad cases of underfeeding. The con ditionS under which humane work for animals must be done in our cities are rapidly changing, the report said. Motor vehicles are dispIacing horses and there is a tendency to hurry the horse when he is used to keep the Especial efforts, the report said, are being made to enlist the public in suppresSing the ill-treatrnent of anil malS.
 The funds of the society received a large increase ddIrdng the year through the will of Ellsworth B. Cooper, for many years town clerk of Hamden.

GOVERNOR FILES
 CHARGES AGAINST

Incompetency, Waste of Public Money and Politi- cal Activity Alleged in the Complaint.
Especial to The Farmer1

Hartford, Jan. Ex-Governor Bald win took the first steps yesterday in his final effort to secure the removal from office of Road Commissioner James H. Macdonald, by filing with Attorney General Light charges a1- Ieging incompetency in the conduct of his office. These charges will be for mulated by the attorney general, ser vice will be made upon MT. MacDon- aid and he will be cited to appear be- fore judge of the Superior court.
 The governor in his presentn1ent to the attorney general makes a number of charges of incomp and de- 1eLctlon in office and accompanies them with mass of evidence such as newspaper clippings, interviews and alleged statements of fact It is un- derstood that there are 21 specific charges and they cover the whole field of the conduct of the office during MT. MacDonaBd's incumbency. Other charges than incompetency are inc1ud- ed, such as the alleged waste of public money and the building up of a. politi-
 Under the statute, passed in 1911 the governor is empowered to bring his complaint before the attorney general, who is instructed to formu- late it and present it for hearing be- fore a judge of the Superior court. The attorney general has no option in the matter and must act irrespec- tive of his own opinions.
 The term of Commissioner MacDon- aid expired July 1, 1911, but he held over, under the provision of the law that he should remain in office until his successor had been chosen and qualified, and his successor was never chosen, although the governor made a determined effort to select a suc- cessor, naming William H. Caldwell of New Britain, a Democrat, and others, even going outside his party in his at tempt to find a man who could dis place Commissioner Macdonald. The ia advice and consent of the Senate was lacking, this body which had a work confirm any nomination made by the governor and standing by Commis- sioner Mcdonald.

WAS FRIEND OF
 OLIVER SHERWOOD
ELIZABETH SEWERS SHERRY SEEKING DIVORCE. TELLS OF RELATIONS WITH DEFAULTING SOUTHPORT BANK OFFICIAL.

People in this vicinity who recall the conviction of Oliver T. Sherwood, bank of s300,000, will be interested in the divorce suit of Elizabeth A. Stiv- CTS Sterry of New York, who admits that she and Sherwood were friendly before and after the bankers convic- tion.
 The New York Herald has the fol- lowing account of Mrs. Sterry's di- vorce action which was heard yester- day:
 Amazing admissions, linked with startling charges were made by Mrs. Elizabeth A. Stivers Sterry at the trial of her separation suit against James w. Sterry, wealthy member of the Weaver & Sterry drug firm, before Supreme Court Justice Newburger yes- terday.
 With the utmost candor, and show ing no embarrassment, Mrs. Sterry told Of her friendship with Oliver T. Sher- wood, former cashier of the National Bank of Southport, Conn.,, who in 1903 was sentenced to ten years in jail for embedding ~$300, 900 from the bank. She admitted she had acted as manager of several millinery stores operated by the defauIter before he fled to Can ada. She also acknowledged that she had visited Sherwood several times af- ter he was sento prison.
 All this was drawn from her by Hyacinthe Ringrose, counsel for MT. sterry' who did not appear in court. He made no9 defense to his wife's charges of cruelty and abandonment, contentiug himself with the deman that the complaint be dismissed on the ground that the divorce, Albert S.. tRennie had obtained from her in 1901 in EIgin, H., was invalid because neither of the two had lived in Illi- nois for the time prescribed by statute.
 Because Of the iIIega1ity Of the di- vorce, Sterry contends, his marriage, which took place in 1911, is void. Ster- ry is a son of George E. Sterry, who was murdered in 1908 by another son, George B. Sterry, Jr.
 My husband was often intoxicat- ed,'' the plaintiff went on. t'He came home drunk on July 4, and insisted on taking my son out with him They visited many saloons, and my son af- terward told me my husband anus ed himself by squirting se1tzer water over walters and customers When he got home about g o'clock that night he was in a terrible condition. His clothing was disheveI1ed, his necktie pulled out from his belt and he stag gered.
 ''At another time my husband flew into a tantrum and ordered me to get my clothes on. He then told Diamond Ca nurse) to call a policeman and have me thrown into the street. Then he used such insulting language to me that I slapped his face" 8 She added that Sterry afterward apologized to her on his knees.
 The Court then gave the lawyers a week in which to submit briefs.

This was decisively contested by Messrs. BeardsIey, Judson and Elliott Peck who stated that if such a mo- ton was passed it would nullify the entire labor of the evening as the leg islature would not approve of such a proceeding. Ire spective of the later attack of MT. Conine who characteriz- ed the old Guard as having their feathers ruffled by his remarks he said that he believed the present sec tion wss intended to serve a purpose a. dia boIica1 purpose. He was support ed in the contention by MT. Stanton, but upon the assurance of MT. Boards ley that the committee had no utter for motives the section was passed with elimination of the Judge of Pro- bate clause, which was taken up and passed separately. During the debate Conine however accused the commit t4e of using steam-roI1er methods to push through the charter. The re- maining section passed without dis senting voice.

THE HuNDREDTH MAN.

Correspondence. Times Democrat:
Ninety-nine men may be too fair and
kind, or too Indifferent, or too ignorant,
to take advantage of the power grant
ed them by law, but the one hundredth
man may be like the one in Colorado,
who willed away his unborn babe and
was responsible for that State grant
ing votes to women. 1t Is the one hun
dredth man that causes all the trouble,
and as he has the law on his side it
compels women having the interest of
the home in mind to try to effect
change in those laws Prof. George
Elliot Howard, of the University of Ne
braska, said: "The fact is that, touch.
ing the legal position of women, Amer
lean legislation is often found to be
medieval, even barbarous in it's pro.
visions.
Only last week the following decis-
ion was rendered by our Supreme
Court; "a contract between husband
and wife is an absolute nullity, and a
wife can not acquire any rights against
her husband by advancing or lending
| him her paraphernal funds to make his
crops" So much for the home.
