Derby to Build Two Training Centers for Girls and Industry
Plans call for constructing a site for two industrial training facilities, a school and a home for girls, with construction starting together and expected completion by next spring. Each project is projected to cost $100,000. Derby resident Jonna C. Roche, a 77 year old former businessman and noted citizen, formerly represented Weslingford in the state legislature for two terms and has 21 children, 17 of whom are Irving. J F Failey, receiver of the Industrial Iron Hell, filed a report covering claims from October 21, 1891 to June 7, 1897. The last report showed funds on hand of $178,219, plus $12,617 since, with $196,447 distributed and a remaining balance of $64,000 amid outstanding claims awaiting court decisions.

Curious ages and careers mark fifty fifth Congress
The St Louis Globe-Democrat notes that the fifty fifth Congress shows a lower average age, with senators at 57 and representatives at 44, due to younger figures like Butler, Penrose, Beltfelt, Bradley, and others entering. It highlights origins of members, Civil War loyalties, and a predominance of lawyers among both chambers, with 224 lawyers in the House and 57 in the Senate. It also identifies foreign-born members and quotes diverse self-descriptions from biographies.
