THE HOUSE;
 THEN MARRIED OWNER
Edward F. Searles Wooed and Won by Mrs. Hopkins of
 Great Darlington

Love laughs at locksmiths, but not always at house painters, humble decorator, name O Edward F. Searles, proved when he wed the rich Widow Hopkins, millionaire some fifteen or twenty times over and some twenty-one years his sen- for, who fell prey to the bow and arrow of Cupid Searles, the tale is recalled by the death of the some time painter in Methuen, Mass, Fri day night. MT. Searles may have had nearly as many millions as a month has days, but so little is gen. orally known about him now that, when a reference room worker at the Hartford Library reinforced a "Courant" man yesterday in a scout expedition through encyclopedias, biographical dictionaries and a bat tery of "Who's Whos," she could not unearth even line about him.
 All that diligent search elsewheres brought about him was: Edward F. Searles, wealthy philanthropist, said to be part owner of the "New York Globe" was born in Methuen in 1841, learned the trade of carpen- ter and married the widow of Mark Hopkins. He had a large art col lection and valuable library. He gave donations of schools and col leges. His latest gift was $2,5OO,- 900 to the University of California. He had extensive estates in Methuen and Salem, N H., and a summer home in Block Island.
 To this it became possible by ex- ploration of old newspaper files to add considerable After learning the carpenters trade in youth Searles became a salesman of furni- ture. Next he tried his hand at ar- tistic house painting. He became, as he neared his forties, a decorator of houses of rich people, women pre- ferred. Simultaneously Mark Hop kins was amassing many millions many times over in helping the Southern Pacific Railroad to make money. And just a bit later Hop kins died, leaving his many millions and also widow.
 In 1884 Mrs. Hopkins was living in Great Harrington, which hundreds of Hartford motorists have found to be a pleasant treat to the eye as they were looking for the Mohawk Trail. She had new and splendid home, among the equipments of which was $75,000 pipe organ. She wished to make her luxurious home still more magnificent and beautiful and it chanced that she engaged a decorator named Searles to make it

the lack of the writer's name. There is nothing in the note to bar it from publication aside from this and we fail to see why, if publication was really wanted, the writer was afraid to sign his or her name.
 For the benefit of all we wish to once more state that any communi- cation sent to this office, that is fit to print, will appear in these col umns with or without the writer's name, as they wish, providing they give their name to the editor. If they do not wish to place their real name on the article it will be omit ted, but their name must be known to the editor.
 Many times there are things about town that could be improved if their faults were aired in the local paper in the right manner, while numerous topics of interest can be discussed publicly in this way. We vel come such communications and the name of the writer will be held in strictest confidence unless it should become court affair.

RETIRING CHIEF JUSTICE

With the retirement of Chief Jus tice Samuel O. Prentice, having reached the Constitutional age limit, Justice George w. Wheeler of Bridgeport becomes Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Errors of this state, the highest honor in the states judicial life.
 As in the case of Judge Roraback who was retired in a similar manner about a year ago, the state has lost another man who through years of study has fitted himself for that responsible position. Now with undoubtedly a decade of his life at it's best left, the state automatically deprives itself of their valued ser vices. No business concern would think of robbing itself in this man. ner and why state should consider itself of less importance than a commercial enterprise is causing considerable comment.
 Chief Justice Prentice has been connected with the judiciary of this state since 1889 when he was ap- pointed to the superior court bench. Later he became justice of the su- preme court and after few years as an associate justice he became chief justice of the court. To it he Brought a broad knowledge of the law and his name stands high among the men who have held that position.
 Justice Wheeler was born in Woodville, Mass, attended the pub lie schools of New Jersey and gradu- ated from the Yale Law School in 1883. He has been active in demo- cratic politics for number of years and is widely known in this connec- ton.

THE RIGHTS OF THE FARMER.

Various papers through the state are reporting the success of parties that go out to pick huckleberries or other wild fruit. It is generally huckleberries. No mention is made, however, of the owner of the bushes on which the berries grow. It IS taken for granted that the berries are common property. None of the berry-pickers turns up to help pay the taxes on the land that the plants stand on. That is the business of the man, who is at that time desig- mater as the owner. When it comes to taking the berries he is not gen. orally regarded in that annoying light.
 This illustrates singular view of ownership under which farmers sui fer seriously. Men and boys will help themselves to growing crops as we'll as to wild fruits. But let these same things be brought to market, and it becomes robbery to carry them away from the stores.
 It used to be the same regarding the fish in the brooks that run through farms. The fellow from the city assumed that he could fish anywhere and, if the bars were in his way, he let them down. The cattle might escape, but they were not his. This has been somewhat curbed by proper legislation. It is conceded that some rights attach to the land, but even now the far mer is at real disadvantage wheth- CT aware of it or not in the way others take possession of what is his. Hartford Courant.

URGE TROLLEY SERVICE
 EXTENSION TO CANAAN

Continued from page D
 towns to the south. In the course of the various discussions over the matter numerous facts and figures have been quoted, among which are some which, if substantiated, would tend to show that the Sheffield and Canaan branches were far from los ing propositions from the standpoint of the street railway company. One man interested in the idea of service claims to have figures to show that the last eight days of operation of the Canaan line ir August, 1919, gave the company over 2000 fares every day or approximately $100 per day on an average for the eight days.
 Such figures would not be tremen- dously reduced by any statement of operating cost which the company might submit. The cars at that time were operated on two-hour schedule.
 No person, aside from the officials oL tHe cOnpdHyy can IuFnlSn accuT- ate statements of receipts and ex- penditures, but the department of public utilities has sufficient power to ask for such reports. This was done at one of the hearings held in Boston last winter and the company furnished figures of average earn ings based upon a period which was later shown to be during the epi- demic of influenza when the public used trolley cars as little as possible. A test during a definite period of time would show the actual condi- tions and it seems hardly probable that the company could refuse such request.
 MT. Aldrich is to take the matter up with the company and will report to his department at Boston. The result of his investigation will be awaited with interest in Southern Berkshire. At present it appears that favorable action in the matter is probable, at least more favorable than at any previous action of the kind which has been taken.
