Frank A. Remington is spending his
spare time at his home in Bennington |
in the manufacture of imitation deer
heads. These are constructed with a |
pine block foundation covered with can
vas stuffed to lifelike proportion. Imi-
tation eyes are sunk in the wood and |
the horns are an excellent production
of knife carving. The whole is then
tinted brown, white and black and the
effect from a few feet is extraordinary.
Mr. Remington is making a border of
the heads to go around the top of his
hall, no two of which are alike.

ues for five years more the particular
kind of fern used in floral work will be
extinct from this part of the country.

The act relating to the prop erty qualifications of electors was withdrawn from the committee on finance and referred to the committee on Judiciary.
 Forfeited Rights.
 The house concurred with the senate in passing resolutions restoring for feited rights which were forfeited by reason of crime to James F. Sinclair and Jacob SWarer of Bridgeport
 Justices of the Peace.
 An act was passed in the house which provides that any person legally elected a justice of the peace at the November election held in 1914, and who failed to take the oath of office within the time required by law, may take such oath on or before June |, 1915, provided no successor to such justice of the peace had been elected under the provisions of section AIS of the general statutes.
 The Third Degree.
 The committee of the judiciary re- ported unfavorably on the act prohibit ing the use of the third degree except to habitual criminals. The bill was introduced by MT. Taylor of Danbury, who advocated its passage. and short debate ensued. The report of the com mittee was accepted and the bill re- jected.
 Woman's Wrongs.

 Charley Gates for Sheriff.
 Immediately after the rising of the general assembly on Wednesday the republicans of Windham county went into caucus for the nomination of sheriff to fill a vacancy. Representa- tive Edward s. Backus, of Thompson, was chosen chairman, and Clarence F. Chester, of Champlin, clerk. On mo- tion of s. A. Peckham of Windham Charles A. Gates of Willimantic was unanimously nominated. Harry A, Back was authorized to submit the nomination in the house for action which if approved will be sent to the governor for confirmation. Upon the death of Sheriff Sibley Governor Baldwin appointed Joel Fox democrat, to fill the vacancy pending | a session of the general assembly. The appointment of MT. Gates is for the balance of the unexpired term. l. Legislative Notes. Professor Fisher, who framed the employers compensation act, frankly admitted to the judiciary committee l that 1t was not his intention, nor was | it the intention of the legislative com mittee who had the matter in charge l to have the law apply to those who | employed less than five. He suggested l that the law be amended and all doubt l on that point removed.
 The proposed act concerning higE
