‘e I Witness Not Allowed to Leave Stand Until His Testimony Was Completed—No Recess Allowed For Dinner, in Suit of Allen, Admr. vs. J. W. Bishop Company. There was an unusual procedure in the civil superior court here on Thurs- @ay when Judge Wheeler held court from 10 a. m. until 330 p. m, with no stop for dinner and only one or two five-minute recesses. This was because of the action on the witness stand of Raphael Doran, whose testi- mony: was such in behalf of the plain- Gff in the case of Frank H, Allen, admr., vs. the J. W. Bishop Co. that he was not allowed to leave the wit- pess stand until his testimohy had been ccmpleted. Judge Wheeler stated that if he did leave the stand he would not be allowed to return. At the openinz of court Frank H. Allen was called as an expert on mov- ing concrete pillars, and he resumed hie testimory. He stated that during the evening previous he had looked up the question of center of gravity, but had not altered his opinion. that it would b= at the balacing point in such a pillar 30 ingres square at the bot- tomn and a foot square at the top, the pillar being 12 feet higk Raphael Doran, who was at work at Taftville with the man who was killed, named Baudry, was recalled to testify as to his knowledge of the affair. Afi- er his direct testimony, he was given a severe cross examination by Attor- rey Thaver for the defense and chang- ed hus direct testimony in many re- spects. He Oenied that he had signed any statement regarding the accident and how it occurred and said he could not write. He made such answers that counsel for the plaintiff suggested an interpreter be used, which caused Judge Wheeler to remark that if an jinterpreter was needed he should have bLeen called at the start. It was thought - an iaterpreter was in the courtroom, but he had gome and it was necessary to send for him. Attorney Thayer stated to the court that in view of the statements of the witness he desired the witness should not leave the stand until he had fin- ished his testimony and to this the judge agreed, saying he must com- plete his testimony before leavingh While waiting for the interpreter to come, Attorney Perkins asked the wit- ness a few guestions in English and then the entire testimony of the wit- ness was reviewed in French through |the interpreter. Peter St Onge. He explained hcw the pillar was being moved, and that he tried to stop it from Crushing Mr. Baudry, but was anable to, and he lay under it for six minutes Concerning the injuries received by Baudty there was i : by Patrick Cassidy, Patrick X Cs sidy, of this city, and Dr, J. H. Mc- Laughlin of Jowett City. Charles Bion and M. A. Barber gave testimony and court was adjourned until this morn- ing for short calendar business while the trial went over until Tu morning, Bi COUNTY PRESIDENT COMING. Will Visit Ladies’ Auxiliary, A. O. H., Its Next Session. On Thursday evening in Hibernian hall the Ladies’ auxiliary, A. O. H., held its stated meeting, called to order at 8 oclock by the president, Mrs. Mary L. Sliney, and considerable busi- ness of importance was taken up and @isposed of. There were three new applications ises of more to come were revealed in the reports made by several of the members. In connection with new members a suggestion was received in a communication from headquarters that more attention be given to r cruiting the membership of the aux iliary from the rising generation of eli- gible young women, which yas a point which led to some animated discus- sion in tho meeting. County President Jrs. Annie T. Han- ley of New London sent word that she will be a visitor at the Auxiliary’s next mee’ing. As a ccming social event, the Auxiliary considered plans for a| dance and whist to be held after the holidays. five Minutes Sometimes Makes A Bflfference If You Are Suffering The Tortures. of indigestion And Have to Wait Until Someone Runs to the Drug Store For A Box of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets.

There was an enthusiastic of the basketball classes on Thursday evenipg at the Haile club, when two {lively games played between the four teams, which, however, are cnly to be regarded as practice games, as it has been decided to defer the opening of the regular tournament until after the 'st of the year. Up to that time the ans will ‘get n all the, practice | gamcs they can, so that when they ¢ out for the club honcrs in this port, each team will be equipped with all the fine points, both in team work, | rassing and shooting, promising a se- ries of unsual interes Red vs. Orange the way the tezms lined up first Thursday night, resulting in the Red team, captained | by Miss Mary McCrohan, winning from {the Orange team, captained by Miss | Eleanor Walsh, 19 to 17. Th> teams { | session were orly a point or two apart all the way, each team scoring % points in the end_half after the Red team had finished the first half in the lead 13 to 1L The second game, between the Blue ard the White teams, was also a high- Iy exciting contest, as the White team, captained by Miss Jennie Clifford, es- tablished the nice lead of 15 to 11 in the first half over the Elue team, cap- tained by Miss Anna Schwartz. But in the second half, the Blues proved great fnishers, tallying 6 points to 1 by their opponents, and winning out on the total, 17 to 1. The Halle club singing class, taught by Miss Mary Rogers, is to make its next class night one of special features by giving a conzert and s>zial after the clnss for the members and their friends. ESKIMO WIDOWERS. Six Weeks ks the Limit They Will Wait Before Remarrying. In civilization it is said that a wife does not akways add to her husband's ease or render his life more supporta- ble, but up on the barren grounds the worst of wives would be better than none. There, among the heathen tribes, if a man’s wife dies—provided he is not a polygamist, in which case, says the Wide World, there is less meed for hurry—he often marries again within the week. Even the-Christian Eskimo widowers are with @Gificulty persuaded by the - Moravian missionaries to allow six ‘weeks to elapse between the death and remarriage. On the very day after the six weeks have lapsed the hunter presents himself with a new bride and asks that the marridge service may be speedily read. The reasom is not far to seek. It is said in civilization that “a woman's work is never done,” snd far more s that true of the helpmate of the sav- age and the semi-savage, the woman of the barren grounds or of the ice edge. She makes and breaks camp. cooks, cuts up and carries to camp her busband’s kill. She dresses the skins of deer and seal. She is responsible for the fashioning of footgear and clothes. On a journey she often pmddles the cance, and on portage she carries a heavy load. In fact, it is ensler to write down the du | tles mot expected of a squaw than i those whicla by immemorial custom she must | erform. A Turkieh Love Story. A Turk knocked at his beloved's door, and a voice answered from with- in, “Who is there?” Then be amswered, “It is 1. Then the voice said, “This house will not hold thee and me. And the door was not opened. Then went the lover into the desert, ‘where there is nothing but Allah, and fasted and prayed in solitude. And after a year he returned and knocked again at the door. And again the volce asked, “Who is there?” And he said, “It is thyself.” And the door was opened to him. D’Orsay and His Tailer. “D'Orsay. the Complete Dandy,” as Mr. Tiegnmouth Shore calls him in his blography. was. fully aware of the value of his patronage to the tailers. When clothes arrived for him, in the most mysterious manner banknotes had found their way Into the pockets. Once, when this accident had not hap- pened, D'Orsay bade his valet return the garments with the message that “the lining of the pockets had been torzotten.” Look for the Good Intention. never pays to attribute an intem- tiona. unkindness to anyone.

PARISIAN SACGE & Trial. MAIL POUCHES. They Cost From a Few Cents to Thou- sands of Dollars Each. TUncle Sam has twenty-eight differ- ent kinds of mall bags in service, and they runge in cost from 22 cents to $2,156 each. There ave mail pouches for almost every cemceivabl. use, and you can ship almost anything that comes within the postal regulations with a minimum of loss and breakage, says Harper's Weekly. Probably the most peculinr mail bag is the ome ar- ranged for carrying bees. Sending bees by mail was a difficult opera: before the “bee bag” was adopt TUsusliy the bees miTived at their des- tination dead or so exhausted that they were of little use. Now these little honey makers can be skipped by mail several thousand miles in the “bee bag’ without suffering and can obtain air and a good supply of food during their transit. Mail bags are made of various mate- rials. The cheapest are of cotton and the most costly of leather. Those used on fast expresses are re-enforced with metal so that they can be flung from fast moving trains without damage. Even then these bags, or “catcher pouches,” do not last much more than a year and a half, while some of the cotton bags used for the work will re- main in service upward of ten years. In parts of the west, where the mail must be carried for many miles on horseback, special pouches are in use for slinging over the animal’s flanks. In the far frozen north special bags are made for sled transportation, and in the cities a bag in use for pneu- matic tube service is made of a com- position called “leatheroid.” The or- dinary cotton mail bags are woven so closely that they are practically wa- terproof, and in the weave there are thirteen stripes of blue. Bach country marks its own mail pouches in some individual way, so that if one gets Jost In a far country its ownership can be readily detected. Nearly 65,000,000 mail bags are used each year by the whole country, and as they are beifig worn out all the time the supply bas to be kept up. There are mall bag hospitals, where tens of thousauds of them go every week. ‘Ome such mail bag hospital re- pairs upward of 5000 a day. These crippled bags are in all sorts ef dilap- iduted conditions. A raflroad wreck may injure several hundreds or thou- sands, and these must all go to the hospital before entering active life again. Christmas is respomsible for much damage to the mall bags, owing to the hard service they get, and im- mediately after the midwinter holiday season several hundred thousand bags g0 to the hospitals. Mail bags are the most traveled of all articles in use today. They are con- stantly moving, and 1t would be im- possible to estimate the number of miles a bag ten years oid has trav- eled.
