DEMURRER DENIED
 IN WATT CASE.
Judge Williams Gives Decisions in I've
 New London Cases.

Judge Williams in decisions handed down here on Thursday finds insuffi- cient cause for and overruleS demurrer to complaint in the case of George Watt ct al. vs D. M. Guile, administra- tor It is the case of Agnes Watt of Montvtlle, who died following an all legged illegal operation at the hands of a Norwich woman, since deceased. Judge Williams memorandum of de- cision in the case follows:
 The plaintiffs cause for action is the loss of the services of their minor daughter. consequent upon an unlaw- full operation upon her by the defend ants intestate It does not appear that the daughter was coerced in her con duct or that her will was overcome, but rather that she readily assented to the operation and necessarily CO., operated with the defendants intestate in the accomplishment of 1t. It ap- pears to be necessary for the plaintiffs to show the physical co-operation of the daughter. Under these circum- stances the administrator of the daughter could not recover.
 But it appears that the plaintiffs had no knowledge of the pregnancy Of their daughter and that the operation in question was without their knowledge and assent.
 In the case of Abraham Herschco- witz vs. the city of New London the demurrer was overru1ed. The taxes In question, based on assessment made against Rueben Lord are still due, the liens being revived by the issue Of Oct. 1, 1909.
 Tn the case of Stephen>N N. Bond ct al. vs Samuel T. Littleffeld ct al., appli- cation to have all the issues Of the fact tried by jury is denied.

 USHERS IN DOG DAYS.
Forty Days Under Sirvis Are Now Up-
 on Js-Sept. 3 the End.

precipitious downpour of rain at one o'clock this morning inaugurated dog days and the weather after the shower-misty, and muggy and moist is just what on associates with the term dog day. By ancient tradi- tion we should expect. just such weather for forty days to come
 Dog days" or canicular days are those which intervene during the as- tendency of Sirius, the dog star. The dates this year are from July 25 to September 3, period of forty days. The ancients ascribed the great heat of summer to the influence of the dog star, but it was by accident only that it's rising coincided with the warmest season. In the Id days the dog day season was from July 3 to August IL, but the time of the rising of Sirius depends on the latitude of the country ad owing to procession, Is later every year.
 Among the old folks there used to be a belief (and it still obtains in some sections) that this period was particularly bad for dogs and that more of them ran mad during the six weeks than at any other time in the year. This theory has been exploded however The old folks, too. used to believe that certain things, harmless to humanity at any other time, must not be done during dog days under penal ty of sickness or death. Many boy has been prohibited from going swim ming because of it. The belief in dog days was common everywhere in days gone by. but there are thousands Of twentieth century young folks who never heard of it.
