INCREASING THE NAVY.
 February 24. 181e.

MT. Pleasants from the committee on Naval Affairs, reported a bill for the gradual increase of the Navy. which was twice read and committed. ( The question of the difference be- tween the both Houses on the subject of the treaty. making power, is. at length put at rest, by a, decision of the House this day. They agreed to the modification !of the bill reported by the committee of conference, which was carried 100 to s5. This, how eyer, is a mere compromise between the two branches of the Legislature, and does not settle the Constitutional questions.
 The House then took up the bill making further provision for military service during the war of 1872. Sew eral amendments were successavely of fered to the bilII some of which were agreed to. and others rejected. Among the former was an amendment to in- cIude the cases of those persons who shall have died on their return home, of wounds, etc, received in the ser vice. The bill was ordered to be en- crossed for a third reading. with the amendments.

crime than ever before. The scene of it has been transferred from the frontier into the heart of the great cities. The Youngers and Jameses of the present Jay sIink around dark streets and sandbag the late and lone Iys pedestrian. They holdSup covering clerks in suburban stores, and rifle the money drawer. The pickings of this business are poor, much less what men of such nerve and address could secure in manufacturing or merchan- dising.
 The loss in all this petty crime is not simply the purses and money tilIs stripped. It is that the crime is made to seem easy and attractive to many young men.

ARTIFICIAL LEG INVENTION. Ca I,inef Maker. of NeIu Haven Invent.

CaD1neJ Makef O1 New HaVen 1nVcHUS
 New Plan
 New Haven, Conn.,, Feb. A, 1S16 . MT. Joseph Dening, cabinet maker in this city, has invented a new plan for making artificial legs. He has lately completed one for MT. Atwater, of this city, who, with many others, pronounce it far superior to any one now in use.
 The stump of the persons leg is fit ted to the artificial limb according to- the old plan-but the spring about the knee-joint is so ingeniously construct ed that it throws the foot and lower part of the leg forward almost, with out exertion on the part of the person and renders it's appearance while mo wing, perfectly natural.
 The artificial limb which MT. At water has hitherto used, (nlade in New YorkO occasions a great exertion on the part of the body, and will by no means compare with the new inven- ton of MT. Deming. His price for making artificial limbs is no more than two thirds the amount charged for the same elsewhere. Those who have been so unfortunate as to lose their limbs would find it for their comfort and convenience to apply to this in- genious workman.

N1NGER, THE CoUNTERFErrER.

New York. March S1, 1896-Prob- ably one of the most important cap lures that have been erfecteds by the Secret Service officers for many months was the arrest of EmanueI Ringer .of, F1agtown, N. J.. who since 1879 has been flooding the country with ''pen apd ink'' counterfeits
 The counterfeiter's handiwork was so peculiar that there was no chance of confounding it with other bad mon- ey. The bills were the most dan gerous known to the government or hcials and a large number of them passed through banks and sub-trea- suries and reached the redemption division at Washington before they were discovered.
 The notes were for s1O. $2o. $50 and $100 each, were made with pen, pen cil,, black ink, darmine, blue and green pigments and parchment of pa per- Ringer said that he first cop jed genuine government bill for pleasure and the work was so we'll done that afterward when he ran out of funds he decided to pass the coun- terfeit. He was arrested in New York.

Ten to twenty dollars are being offered for votes for HawIey. One or two cases have been spotted for legal action.

GEORGE 1.-THE TRAMP
Death of We'll Known East Bridgeport Character Whose Early Life Is
 Shrouded in Mystery

There died at the Town Farm at the age of 50, last evening, a character that for the past 20 years was famil- jar to the residents of the East Snde. He was known as George Oden but he was better known as George, the tramp His death was caused by juries he received when struck by a train in front of the Cartridge factory about two years ago.
 The deceased was a unique charac- ter and was known by alnos every child that grew up in the Fifth and Sixth wards during. the last 20 years. He lived by begging food and cloth ing from residents of East Bridgeport He never accepted assistance without offering his services in recompense He could saw and split a cord of wood in three days. His equal as a kaIso- miner was unknown about these parts.
 Whence he came,- when he was first introduced to the residents of the East Side, no one has been able to find out; oft repeated attempts to ex- tract from him some definite adnis- sion of his former life were always 
 He was a fa.vorite with children and it was no uncommon sight to see him in the back yard of some home where he had been working, with a group of children gathered about him listening to some of his snatches of verse and nursery tales. His body was inter red at the Town Farm this afternoon.

FAIRFIELD AVENUE WIDENING

Probably very few of the property owners in Fairfield avenue, between Main and Park. have kept watch of the Council's action in the matter of widening it. Several owners were or dered to move trees and the time limit for this will expire tomorrow.
 An idea of the very radical chan ges recomm ended and planned may be gained from these facts: At the cor ner of Courtland street and Fairfield avenue the curb of Mrs. B. F. Bishop must go back feet, end the fence line 4 1Al feet; ton the opposite side, the curb. of MT. B. F. Meeker goes, back 3 A feet, and his fence 1 F feet:
 midway of the block, the curb of D. K. Peck. property goes back 6 feet. and the fence 4 M feet; on the oppo- site side, the curb is set back 1z feet, and the fence very nearly two feet. The lines thus indicated continue to Park avenue. From Courtland to Main street, the widening is also most ly upon the north side of the avenue, but no buildings are touched.
