Coop Property of Arthur MerreI.
The lives of 100 small White Wyan-
dotte chicks were lost in fire that
destroyed chicken house Thursday
afternoon owned by Arthur Merrell
and located in the rear yard of his

threatened to spread to the barn on
Henry Priestman's place on Linden
street so the aid of the entire depart
ment was asked for, a Telephone mes
sage being given the police. A gem
eral alarm was turned in for box Ne.

to save the chickens or their house.

our Iowa men. This study of the beef
cattle situation is tending toward the
elimination of the inferior grades Of
beef and concentrating on the best
beef types and breeds. The farmers
of Iowa today have better average
beef animals than ever before.
This serious study of the beef cat.
tie situation is no where reflected so
thoroughly as in the exhibits of cat
tie at the Iowa State Fair. The high;
efficiency of the pure bred cattle en-
thusiasts is strikingly illustrated in,
the magnificent animals that are on
exhibition. The show of beef cat

Uses to fully equal, if not surpass, the

DIVORCE GIVEN
 TO TWO COUPLES

Albert c. Hermann of Stratford was granted a divorce from Bertha Her mann of this city by Judge Bennett in the superior court this afternoon. Desertion in 1908 was the ground. Her mann, who is an assistant foreman at the U. M. C., testified that his wife was not of a home loving nature. She stayed out late at night and gener- ally forgot to have his supper when he arrived home from work. He turned over all his earnings to her ex- cept 30 cents which he kept for spend ing money. The couple were married in 1907.
 Rose Kapmeyer of this city was giv- en a decree from John A. Kapmeyer of parts unknown. IntolerabIe cruel ty and assertion were the grounds. Mrs Kapmeyer testified that her hus- band didn't support her and that he often struck her. She had him ar rested in March, 1908, for breaking down door in the house and after that he didn't return to the old home stead. The Kapmeyers were married August g, 1881.

CORONER'S DOCTOR
 WILL INVESTIGATE
 DEATH OF WOMAN

New York, Dec. PA coroner's phy- sician began today an investigation of the death of Mrs. Helen L. Mackay, widow of the Rev. Donald Sage Mac kay, for many years pastor of the Collegiate Church of St. Nicholas on Fifth avenue and, president of the General Synod of the Reformed Church in ArnnfIca-
 Mrs. Mackay died yesterday after noon under the influence of ether on an operating table in a private hos pita1 where she had registered a few hours before as Mrs. J. H. Stone of Boston. #
 A scrap of paper in her handbag upon which she had scrubbed her name and address, led to her identifi- cation. The belief that she was suf- fering from an incurable disease led her to visit the hospital for an ex- animation, according to the theory of the coroner. Ether was given at her own request and for the purpose of aiding in the examination. Heart failure under the anesthetic caused death. She was the daughter of the late Gregor Smith.
 Dr.. Mackay died suddenly in a railroad station in Portland, Me, in August, 1908y

JUDGE PECK HAS
 CHANGE TO EXPLAIN

Evidence in the suit of the State of Connecticut against Judge Charles H. Peck will be resumed next Tuesday
 morning in the superior court before Judge Bennett. The cross examina- tion of Judge Peck will be resumed at that time. When court adjourned yesterday afternoon he was explain ing about a circular which had been distributed to StratfOrd voters prior to the Republican caucus.
 A copy of the circular had been handed to Judge Bennett by the de- fense to prove the contention that the present charges of irregular practice were filed against Judge Peck because Of political anirnosity. The court re- marked that the circular appeared to be an answer to some other previous letter. Judge Peck replied that he had written a communication to news papers in this city. He said nrsc fr appeared in ono paper but after be- ing questioned by Judge Bennett ne remembered two or three other pa pers.
 Judge Peck explained his charge of S75O for legal services to the Perry estate by saying that Mrs. Perry wrois him a letter telling him to take $1, 900 for his work. Judge Peck said he had burned this letter in throwing away a number of other papers. He had a copy of the 1erter. which he showed to the court. Judge Bennett wanted to know how he came to burn the letter without looking at it but the witness replied that it was hidden other papers and he didn't see
