Equestrian Pleasures.
Bridgeport appears to be an attractive city
for equestrian pleasures and George F. Cook's
saddle horses the proper animals to ride.
Wednesday afternoon a party of ladies and
gentlemen came from New Haven and after
taking saddle at Mr. Cook's stables proceeded
to enjoy the attractions of Seaside park.
Among the most skilful riders were Miss Anna
Gildersleeve, Miss Georgia Norman, Dr. Pe
terson, Mr. Hooker and Mr. T. E. Norman of
New Haven and Miss Booth of Bridgeport.
That these visitors to our city can sustain
their reputation for graceful riding in on
emergency was proven by the ran from the
park. The angry appearance of the sky
about 7 o'clock was the signal for retreat
from the proposed trip to Black Rock and
slight touches of lash caused the animals to
proceed homeward at full speed. The run
was not broken from park to stable, and hun
dreds of spectators along the route expressed
their admiration of the fair riders and their
companions. Bridgeport Standard.
Hamor In the Stomach.
Much of the distress and sickness attribu
ted to dyspepsia, chronic diarrhoea and other
causes is occasioned by humor in the stom
ach, i Several cases, with all the character
istics of these complaints, have been cored
by Hood's Sarsaparilla. Other cures effect
ed by this medicine are so wonderful that the
simple statement of them affords the best
proof that it combines rare curative agents
and when once used secures the confidence
of the people.
CLERGYMAN.
He Goes Down Xo
Jericho and Falls
Among Thieves.
Yesterday afternoon while the St. Patrick's
Y. M. L. A. excursionists were going on
board the Elm City at Twenty-third street,
New York, Rev. Mr. Lancaster lost his
watch. A number of New York roughs tried
to force their way on board the boat and it was
at this time that Mr. Lancaster believed he
lost his much valued timepiece. The watch
was a very beautiful one and was valued at
one hundred and fifty dollars. Mr. Lancas
ter telegraphed to both the New York and
New Haven police to keep a lookout for any
suspicious characters. Two other unsuccess
ful attempts were made to take watches from
the excursionists. Father Lancaster was
formerly curate at St. Patrick's church in
this city and is now located at the Star of
the Sea church in New London.
BLAINE AND LOGAN.
The Republican Central Headquarters
On Church Street A Splendid Trano
pareney The Club Rooms.
Hundreds stopped on Church street last
evening to see the new and fine stars and
stripes transparency which was displayed
last evening for the first time from the Re
publican campaign headquarters, third floor
of the American building, corner of Church
and Crown streets, next the postoffice. It is
something new in the campaign transparency
line, and he who runs may read what it says,
while it is conspicuous from afar. It is
twelve feet high and eighteen feet in circum
ference and stationed at the front windows of
the club room and is likened to a huge
Chinese lantern with a blue ground studded
with stars above and red and white bars be
low. On the blue ground is represented an
eagle bearing in his month a streamer upon
which is "Blaine and Logan". Below on
either side is "Republican Central Club."
Twenty yards of bunting were employed up
on the transparency and it is lighted by four
gas jets. Much praise is due Judge Deming,
chairman of the New Haven Republican
Town committee, and Captain George A.
White for their enterprise in getting up this
campaign token. Captain White has been
selected to have charge of the rooms. The
selection gives universal satisfaction among
the Republicans. The olub room occupies
the entire third floor of the building which
furnishes a commodious hall for campaign
purposes. It will seat 300 or 400.

Trout Ponds.
The Waterbury American thus speaks of
the trout ponds of A. Talpin, in Forestville:
The enclosure, surrounded by a picket fence,
contains about one-third of an acre, on which
are arranged five small ponds, so arranged
that spring water and a supply from the
burner shop pond passes through each in suc
cession by a sluice, guarded by a rolling
strainer. In one section are 500 trout, weigh
ing from one and three-quarters to two
pounds each. Another section contains about
3,000, two years old, and the third has about
5,000 of last winter's hatching. On the east
side is his feeding honse, through which runs
a stream of clear spring water. On the west
is situated the building, containing facilities
for spawning and hatcning. A New York
sportsman once gave $100 for the privilege of
catching 100 trout, and it is said he made a
good bargain; figuring his catch at a moderate
price in market, not counting the pleasure of
a Dig story witn tne evidence to prove it.
Funeral of Ilrs, Donnelly.
At St. Mary's church yesterday morning
occurred the funeral of Mrs. Bridget J. Don
nelly, Father McGivney celebrating the sol
emn requiem mass, assisted by Rev. Mr.
Murphy, Rev. Mr. Crowley and Rev. Mr.
Sheehan. In the remarks by Father McGiv
ney a high tribute was paid to the deceased,
whose Christian life had been well known in
the church and by her acquaintances. Her
long membership of St. Mary's churchjmade
her very well known to all in the parish. She
was one of the oldest members of the congre
gation. The large number in the church he
said showed that she had a great many friends
who mourned after a good Christian woman.
Among the floral tributes were a handsome
cross from Frank A. Bowman, a cross from
Mrs. Bernard Cox, a wreath bearing the word
"Rest" from Miss Annie Donnelly, a pillow
with the legend "Mother" and beautiful bou
quets from Miss Maria Donnelly, Miss Minnie
Lukeman, Miss Katie Campbell and Miss
Dorcas Welpley. The pall-bearers were Ber
nard Cox, Michael Sullivan, Thomas McHugh,
Peter Boy lan, John McNierney and Patrick

Bernard's cemetery.

NEW SOUND STEADIER.
A $200,000 Boat Launched Yesterday
AtNoank.
Yesterday at noon the large screw side
wheel steamer, built for the Providence &
Stonington Steamship company, was launch
ed from the yard of Palmer & Sons at
Noank.. The vessel is intended for service as
a freight boat on the Sound between New
York, Stonington and Providence, and in
her construction there have been introduced
some novel features which will attract the
notice-ef all American steamboat men. This
steamer is built of wood, and is 305 feet long
over all, 43 feet feet beam ( 73 feet 6 inches
wide across her guards) and 16 feet depth
of hold. She is stoutly framed with
white oak and at every deck beam
she has a heavy hanging knee,
inside and outside alternately. Her
outside planking is four inches thick.
Three water-tight bulkheads have been built
in her, which will protect her hold from
flooding in case of a bod leak or collision.
Her model is considered handsome and it is
expected that this steamboat will prove very
fast on a small consumption of coal.
The principal novelty about this vessel is
her engine. It is the first of its type that was
ever built in this country, being designated
as an oscillating, compound surface, condens
ing, direct acting, side-wheel engine.
John Roach & Son are building the boilers
and machinery, which consist of one set of
oscillating cylinders, the low pressure one
being 78 inches in diameter and the high
pressure 42 inches, with 10 feet 6 inches
stroke of piston. Steam will be supplied by
eight tubular boilers, the initial pressure of
which will be 80 pounds to the square inch.
She will have feathering paddle wheels
Morgan type and begin her trips on or
about November 1. The estimated cost is
$300,000.
POLICEMEN AND CLAHS.
How a Party of the "Finest" Wrestled
"With the Bivalves at nerwin'a
Point Yesterday Those Who Dis
tlnguished Themselves in Swimming
and Shooting:.
The barge Columbia left the city shortly
after 13 o clock yesterday carrying a party
of policemen, who are now on night duty,
to Merwm's Point for a clambake. The
barge picked up the policemen at the r
aences. un tne nae down old. war songs
were sung with great zest, William Rice de
veloping unexpected power as a vocalist
The first thing the policemen did when they
reached the shore and got a good sniff of the
salt sea air was to strip off their clothes and
go in bathing. Those who know Messrs.
Streit, Stormont and Waas will understand
that they required an enormous depth of
water to float in. They were cruelly called
porpoises by some of their brothers who are
smaller of stature. Those who did not go in
bathing amused themselves by loafing about
in the shade and viewing distant objects
witn neia glasses ana witn rifle snooting.
W. A. Pickering carried off the hon
ors in the latter sport. The dinner
was then attacked and all were well
satisfied with it. There were lemonade
and coffee for drinkables. At one end of the
table there was a contest between Officers
Streit, Collett and Orr in eating clams. Af
ter large piles of shells had been collected
Mr. Orr was declared the victor. The police
men returned at half-past 6 o'clock, well
pleased with their trip and anxious to go

COMMITTEE ON ORDINANCES.
A Change to he made in the Awning
Ordinance Filthy Hacks to he
Looked After The Tenement Honse
System Considered Other matters.
The Committee on Ordinances held a meet
ing last evening, Alderman Benton presid
ing. The first petition considered was for an or
dinance amending the ordinance in regard to
awnings, proposing that drop awnings be not
required to be raised more than seven feet
above the sidewalk instead of nine feet
now.
F. Stanley Bradley advocated the proposed
change in the ordinance. He could not see.
as they extended so short a distance from the
building, that they were any detriment to
pedestrians, even if placed as low as seven
feet.
Mr. Leigh, of the firm of Leigh & Prindle,
said that the drop awnings were expensive
and he thought as the awnings were only
down while the sun shone they could not be
any detriment or cause any injury to people
who are passing.
Milius Frank said these awnings were ab
solutely necessary to protect the goods of
merchants from the sun. If they were
obliged to raise them to nine feet they would
practically be of no use.
Professor Brewer said it had not been for
many years possible for him to walk down
Orange street with a stovepipe hat on with
out hitting some of the awnings. He thought
seven ana one-nail leet wouia be a lair com
promise. Harry Leigh said that he thought the awn
ings should not be raised above seven feet.
Alderman Flatt thought this ordinance was
passed Oetore drop awnings were thought of.
He said his awning was seven and one-half
feet high, but it did not project over the side
walk as mucn as tne barrels and boxes of
neighbors. He said the merchants were be
ing constantly appealed to for contributions
for benevolent and other objects and they
felt as though they should have some protec
tion to tneir goods.
Evarts Cutler thought there was no one
that had any greater interest in having these
awnings so raised as not to annoy customers
by knocking their , hats, off when entering
tneir stores to purcnase goods tnan himselt.
He would be pleased to have the distance
made seven feet from the sidewalk, but would
be satisfied if it was made 7 feet.
It was voted to recommend that the words
nine feet from the sidewalk be changed to
seven feet six inches.
The next petition considered was for an
amendment to the ordinance in regard to the
inspection of steam boilers so that the in
spection of the same by any company doing
an inspection business may be accepted as
well as those of the Hartford Boiler Inspec
tion company.
Charles Kimberly said that there were two
boiler insurance companies beside the one in
Hartford, and all that was asked was that
the certificates of these companies may be
received on the same terms as the Hartford
company. Voted to recommend a change in
the ordinance as asked for.
The next matter considered was an ordi
nance regulating the tenement house system
so that they may be kept more thoroughly
cleansed and drained.
Professor Brewer said it was evident from
inquiry among the lawyers that such an or
dinance could not be passed by the city with
out farther State legislation. He would rec
ommend that the Court of Common Council
instruct the corporation counsel to draw a
law to be presented to the next State Legis
lature in the form of a general tenement
house law so that the Board of Health may
have power to enact suitable laws for the
government of the health of the city.
Mr. Dailey, of the committee, thought
there was ample authority under the present
charter to enact laws to preserve tne health
of the city.
Dr. C. A. Lindsley said the death rate of
cities was largely increased by crowded tene
ment houses which eannot be controlled.
Epidemic diseases universally proceeded and
spread from tenement houses, hence the
necessity of guarding against such evils.
He said that really New Haven, which is the
healthiest sea coast city in the world of its
size, had no good sanitary code, and there
was great need of its revision. He thought
the Board of Health in New Haven was very
much restricted in its powers under the pres- -
ent laws.
Alderman Spreyer urged prompt ac
tion. He said that not only
tenements but back yards needed looking
after, and that speedily.. If there is not
sufficient law then let there be lawB passed
that would give the Board of Health all the
power necessary to enable them to care for
the health of the city.
It was voted to refer the matter to a
special committee of three to be appointed
by the Court of Common Council to confer
with the Board of Health in regard to fram
ing suitable laws.
An ordinance reeardine the inspection or
hacks and public vehicles as to their cleanli
ness and preventing the carrying of the body
of any dead person in public hacks was next
considered.
Alderman Baldwin said he had suffered
from riding in filthy hacks which were
filled with foul odors and to such
an extent that he had been made
sick by them. While he thought the
majority of hacks were kept clean, yet there
were many that were decidedly filthy and a
simple ordinance would regulate the whole
matter.
Dr. Lindsley thought if such a law passed it
would have a healthy effect upon hack
owners, especially if it was understood that
their vehicles were liable to inspection at
any time. Voted to refer the matter to the
special committee and the Board of Health.
The proposed ordinance to 1 prevent the
blowing of tin horns in the streets or on the
public squares was next considered. Alder
man Kennedy advocated the passage of the
measure. Voted to recommend that the pe
titioners be given leave to withdraw.
Thomas H. Fulton appeared and asked
that the license for making soap and boiling
grease be reduced from $10 to $1. Mr. Ball,
of the firm of Bradley & Ball, also advocated
the same. The petitioners were given leave
to withdraw.
THE ASIATIC CHOLERA.
frays of Guarding Against the Ap
proach or the Scourge Increased
Probabilities of Its Appearance in
the Western World.
From an interesting paper on the above
subject by Dr. Chamberlain- of the State
Board of Health, published in yesterday's
Courant, we extract the following:
He thinks the cholera has commenced its
deadly progress westward, and that the flight
of tourists from the European continent hith
erward and the multitudinous risks for the
spread of the disease arising from the com
merce and inter-communication are grave
subjects for contemplation. The possibili
ties of the spread of the disease to this coun
try are more numerous than formerly. He
continues: The immigration from the Medi
terranean ports has rapidly increased and is
now a constant source of danger. The ocean
has never been a sufficient barrier and the
resources of sanitary science are too much
disregarded in times when no epidemic
threatens to be suddenly made efficient. Ob
servers who carefully watched the progress
of cholera in Europe in 1865 and its invasion
of the United States affirm that the same
threatening aspects are presented as in Au
gust of that year. While the duty of guard
ing against the admission of cholera devolves
first of all upon the quarantine officials of
the States bordering upon the Atlantic, yet
the lesson of the outbreak in 1873 in an in
land State from the contagion conveyed in
the clothing of immigrants is not to be for
gotten. The disease appeared two days after
the clothing was unpacked, on one of their
children who had previously been in perfect
health. We have already called the atten
tion of the quarantine officers in this State to
the importance of a careful inspection of all
vessels that sail from an infected port or
from those adjacent, nor should their vigi
lance be relaxed because a clean bill of health
is required prior to sailing for this country,
for the disease may break out after the ves
sel has started. The efficiency of the service
will very probably be tested, and untiring
vigilance is demanded.
It has been generally believed that the
cholera originates always in a province in
India, from which it was spread to other lo
calities, tne general direction or its course
being westward. In a recent official report
it is stated tnat it is tne almost universal be
lief or tne pnysicians m government service
in India that cholera originates in any part
of the East where the essential unsanitary
conditions exist, w rule it is possible tnat
visitation of cholera may be escaped this
year, it is the part of wisdom to be prepared.
If all reasonable precautions have been taken
the public will be less likely to be seized
with that unreasoning fear and panic that
predisposes to the disease, and is a powerful
adjunct to its spread. It is also true that
all sanitary improvements are of last
ing benefit, and if we escape in
vasion the results of the sanitary
work accomplished will be seen in a better
state of the public health, less sickness and a
lowered deatn rate, so tnat the rormer neg
lect of these unsanitary conditions will seem
to have been almost criminal.
Tne value 01 action bexore tne disease ap
pears is beyond all comparison greater than
that taken m the presence of the disease,
Public safety will be best secured by such
preparation as is known to be most effective
before the approach of the foe. Fortifica
tions cannot be erected while under attack
by the enemy. The sanitary barriers which
defend from fatal disease are the same
whether it be Asiatic cholera or any other
infectious malady. The watchword of pro
tection is cleanliness. If we make ourselves
clean, and our surroundings clean, the chol
era may come out it will tail to hnd an
abiding place.
SPREAD OF THE VIRUS.
The contagion or virus of cholera may be
carried from place to place by a person suf
fering from the disease, however lightly. It is
disseminated by the excretions or the patient
both solid and liquid, chiefly the former. As
the disease can be scattered by a person suf
fering from a light case, that is, where a chol
eraic diarrhoea is the chief symptom, the fa
cilities afforded by railroad travel for the
spread of cholera over a wide area are evi
dent. While the contagion of cholera can be
thus freely scattered, it is not propagated
outside tne body except in unsanitary locali
ties. Vile, nitny, undrained or un-
sewered tenements, filth saturated soil
from leaky drain pipes an atmosphere
reeking with the gases of decay, soil pol
luted with the putrelactive compounds trom
garbage, kitchen slops, sink drains, shallow,
overflowing privy vaults and the overcrowd
ed haunts of vice and crime m which misery
compels the poor also to seek shelter, furnish
in the most inviting form the essential con
ditions for the repropagation of the conta
gion of cholera. Less aggravated instances
of unsanitary conditions are proportionately
dangerous. A warm, moist atmosphere into
which putrifying organic matter is discharg
ing the gases ot decay is favorable to the de
velopment ot tne germs ot cholera. The wa
ter from wells polluted by filth from closely
adjacent vaults or drains ana other sources
of water supply defiled by sewage, if also in
fected with the specific contagion of cholera,
has long been recognized as one of the most
active agents in the spread of this disease.
Impure water prepares the system for the re
ception of cholera ana renders it less able to
resist its course.
LAW OF INFECTION.
Cholera is not contagious in the same
sense that scarlet lever ana smallpox are
contagious; it is not what is commonly called
catching." If disinfection ana other prop
er precautions are used there is scarcely any
riSK that the disease will spreau. to uiose tnat
nurse or otherwise closely attend upon the
sick. With the essential conditions of filth,
moisture and warmth, the germs are repro
duced so rapidly that the disease extends
over the whole contaminated region as if by
an 'explosion." Our control over the spread
of cholera is complete as the laws which
govern it are so well understood. " Were
it not that from neglect and indiffer
ence unsanitary conditions have been and are
allowed to become so extensive ana compli
cated that they cannot at once be remedied
there would be no reason to fear this
scourge. The contagion of cholera can be
destroyed, whatever its essential nature may
be, and the disinfectants that destroy it are
well known and chiefly used. The factors for
an epidemic of cholera are:
The specihe contagion.
Moisture and warmth.
Filth.
If the specific contagion be not excluded
by quarantine it can be destroyed by disin
fection. The filth factors can be removed or
purified. While warmth and moisture are
essential for the multiplication of the germs
they can be preserved for an in
definite time in a dry state and
again become active if the proper
conditions for their development are sup
plied. The limits of the contaminated area
mark the boundary of the spread of cholera.
With pure air, pure water and an nncontam
inated soil an epidemic of cholera could not
be developed. Cases might indeed occur, but
the disease would De easuy comrouea.
The nearer this standard is reached, the less
the danger from cholera as well as the longer
the average duration of life. Cholera is a
stern teacher of the importance of public hy
giene. It is "the world's great nuisance
searcher," as well as a relentless destroyer, si
lently invading and smiting the people that
have left open the door for such a visitation.
The law makes the selectmen ana justices
of the peace the Board of Health in every
town where no other organized body exists
for the care of the public health. The health
boards are the guardians of the people, and
it is their duty to see that these avoidable
causes of disease are removed. Let no town
be caught furnishing the essential filthy con
ditions to start an epidemic that will sweep
the State. To prevent this a careful atten
tion to the conditions hitherto neglected wOl
in many cases be required. . j

Several Parties On Board tne Starl 11
jTIiicli Enjoyment For All.
Yesterday the steamer John H. Starin took
out the largest party thus far this season.
There were three organizations on board the
boat, making up a crowd of about 400 per
sons. About 200 were the friends and mem
bers of Moses Mendelssohn lodge No. 16, K,
S. B., the remaining 200 being parties of the
Good Fellows and the - French Canadians.
The president of the Moses Mendelssohn
lodge is Jacob Kaiser; vice-president, Marcus
Sehwed; secretary, David Strouse, and E. M.
Gans, treasurer. This society has friends in
Hartford, and quite a number came from
that city and went with them to Glen Island.
G. A. Pickett and Ad. Newhall managed
the Good Fellows' and J. J. Clouet and C.
E. Gerard the French Canadians. Among
those who were noticed aboard the boat as
she left the dock were: Marcus Schwed, E. M.
Gans, Benjamin Blumenthol and family, of
liartlora, M. uahn ana tamily, Philip Schul
hafer and daughter, A. Newhall, H. B. Mix,
Leopold Besser, David Machol, and Herman
Machol.
Personal.
Miss S. M. Nolte left the city yesterday for
a visit with friends in Yalesville.
Clark Peck will spend next winter in Flor
ida. Edward Haines, the young man formerly
employed at Snow's and for a short time at the
almshouse suffering from insanity, is getting
along finely.
Anthony Comstock, of New York, the
originator of the law known as the "Com
stock law" for the suppression of the circula
tion of obscene literature, gives a free lecture
this evening, July 25, at the Town Hall, Bris
tol, under the auspices of the Young Men's
Christian association.
County Commissioners.
The comity commissioners in Waterbury
yesterday heard first the case of Mauric Mori
arty. Chief Egan and Officer Dodds upon
beine sworn testified to havinz visited the
place kept by Moriarty on Washidgton Btreet
on July 7tn, and to have found the doors un
fastened between the barroom and the base
ment hallway. Moriarty testified to keeping
a notet in tne upper portion of tne buuoine.
This was to account for numbers of people
wno were seen coming out or tne place
on a recent Sunday by a special omcer
deputized to do duty on Washington
street and requested by the chief to
watch Moriarty's place. J. W. Webster ap
peared for Moriarty, and held that it should
be proven not only that the door was open,
but that it was open for traffia. This he said
had not been proven. A hotel register,
sworn to have keen kept on the place, was
produced. The commissioners reserved their
decision. In the case of P. H. Moore,-whose
Lplace is on the corner of South Main and
rtTnion streets, a door was also found open.
Jnr. Moore admitted tnis, but stated to tne
Board that he had been given a permit by
Mr. Perry and ex-Commissioner Baldwin
to keep the door unsealed. The com
missioners had no .knowledge of this agree
ment, but if there had been an agreement to
this effect the records at New Haven will
show it. In the case of William Kelley,
whose place is near the Plank road comer,the
inside door was fastened by a cross board
which had been removed a few days previous
to paint the door and sill. The proprietor had
not used it to admit customers, although the
chief testified that it did not look like a per
manent fastening. Kelley s case appears to
be the safest of those tried thus far. To de
cision will be rendered until the return of the
board to this city.
