BCILDIN6 OPERATIONS.
Various Improvements In Progress
Ground has been broken on the lot corner
of State and Humphrey streets for a brick
block which Mrs. Tiesing, widow of the late
Captain Frank Tiesing, is to erect this fall.
Ground was broken yesterday on the At-
water lot, next above Bishop's drug store, for
the erection of a block building of three
stories by Hessler, the baker. "
Mr. Edward Lawrence, resident partner of
F. A. Potts & Co., is erecting a fine barn on
the rear of his residence, No. 143 Humphrey
street. It will be one of the best in that
section, of attractive design with slated roof,
dormer windows, superior woodwork, sewer
connections and an air shaft from the stable
floor to the top of the roof. It will cost
about $2,000.- Robinson was the architect
and D. H. Clark is the builder. Mr. Law
rence recently greatly improved his residence

otherwise. There will be accommodations
for three horses.
Policeman Schwader has a neat frame
dwelling in process of erection on Nicoll

wam" en Foster street, about midway be

Maud S. Makes a Past Mile.
Maud S. was given two mile heats yester
day morning" at Charter Oak Park. Mr.
Bair appeared with her on the track and after
a warming-up heat gave her an easy mile in
2:18. After cooling off he started her for
another heat and reached the first quarter in
34 seconds. After rounding the turn Bair
let her out and passed the half mile in 1:06,
the second quarter being made in 32
seconds, the three quarter, in 1:40J and
finished easy in 2:13J. The entire heat was
driven from two to three, lengths from the
pole, making, at least three quarters of a
second difference, or as good as 2:12J for
the heat. The little mare was not urged,
Bair not using the whip, and. when" it is
taken into consideration that the first quart
er was only at the rate of 2:16, it was a
splendid performance.
On Thursday afternoon Mr. Bonner is ex
pected to visit the park and Mr. Bair intends
sending Maud a very fast mile. From the
present appearances she will be "in the pink
of condition" to break the record by the
middle of next week, and, if one can judge
from her appearance, it is almost certain she
will lower the record. An immense crowd
will be present to witness the trial, and it is
probable that the association will add a
double team trial or some other equally at
tractive race to the day's sport.
The Season of Fair.
The sixth annual fair of the New Milford
Agricultural association will be held at New
Milford on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day, September 30 and October 1 and 2. The
Housatonic railroad company will give half
rate fares for passengers and free transporta

The fair of the Union Agricultural society
will be opened next Wednesday evening at
Huntington and continue Thursday and Fri
day.
Plre In Mnslc Hall, Hartford.
About 10:30 o'clock Sunday night fire was
discovered in the Hartford Music Hall build
ing. Smoke and flame was issuing from
George T. Abel's furniture warerooms. The
fire department arrived shortly and several
streams were put on the locality where the
blaze seemed to come from, but there; was
considerable difficulty in finding the exact
position of the fire. "At length it was found
among a pile of mattrasses and material for
their manufacture in the rear basement. A
stream was put on through Abel's store and
two into the doorway on Morgan street. Af
ter the exact locality of the fire was found it
i soon extinguished. The total loss
about $1,000. Partially insured.
American Mechanics' Benefits.

hold their annual meeting in Loomis' Temple
of Music this evening for the election of offi
cers. Ihis association has now a member
ship of over 500, having increased about 300
within the last eight months. It has proved
of much benefit to the order since its organi
zation and bids fair to have a membership
equal to any other such beneficial associa
tion.
For the Springfield Races.
The Maryland Bicycle club, of Baltimore,
passed through here yesterday afternoon on
the 4:10 train for Springfield to attend the
races that begin there to-day. There were

: his store Thursday and disappeared the same
mght, has not been seen since. To a sober,
industrious and exemplary life, Esler adds
the respect of a five years' service with his
-present employers, and none of the ordinary
reasons for sudden disappearance are applica
ble m his case.

closed through the month of August for im
provements, was reopened Sunday for

ing. - T . : ; ;-. " . ; - . '

BUNCO SIEEBEBS POILKD.
A ..New Haven Gentleman, Well
Known In Financial Circles, Meets
Two Bunco Men In New York
Their Efforts to Rope Him In Are
Unsuccessful.
A gentleman well known in New Haven
society and especially prominent in financial
circles went to New York yesterday on busi
ness. While walking on Broadway he was
approached by an exceedingly dapper young
man who bowed oolitelv and claimed an ac
quaintance with him. The young New York
er said he remembered the New Havener's
face verv well, but did not quite remember
his name.. The New Havener at once sniffed
mischief in the breezes, but concluded to toy
with his friend a little just for the fun of the
thing and to see what he would try to do.
So he said that he was from New Haven,gave
his name and Hit id he was very glad to meet
his old acquaintance. They were quickly
met bv a second dapper young man ana the
New Havener was introduced. The new-comer
claimed to be a nephew of ex-Gov. English
and the self-proclaimed nephew of the ex
governor proposed going to see a beautiful
painting that he had just purchased. He
was a great connoisseur of fine paintings, his
friend said. But our Elm City financier
thought he had had fun enough out of the
adventure and hastily took his departure,
saying he had just time to catch a train. His
new-found friends were much crestfallen at
his sudden leave taking. They were un
doubtedly - bunco ateerers and evidently
tnoueut they had a "soft snap" in the een-
ueman trom JXew Haven.
In Memorlam.
MRS. CLARK R. SHELTON.
The Parcae closelv watch the busv strands. -
While through the woof of swiftly flying hours
iiie snuitieoz a me in neavemy nanas
Weaves in and out the tale of thorns and flow-
. i ers.
At last the work is o'er; with painful sighs
Grim Atropos divides the slender thread.
And leaves in radient view before our eyes .
The story of a life too quickly sped.
Here is the golden sheen of noble deeds, '
There, are the silken threads of pure desire:
While binding fast the varying shade that
speeds,
Run silver cords that holy hopes inspire..
Now may we see those glorious acts of love
That bound our hearts so closely to her own;
Now may we prize those tender words that
strove
To give our song of life a sweeter tone.
. And mem'ry waking to her fruitful years
Clings vinelike round our darkened home;
A precious balm to unavailing tears,
A legacy of peaceful hope to come.
So lay we tenderly beneath the sod
The form that once she used and we did love;
So flies her soul with faith sublime to God,
So points her life and death to Him above.

most of which are. doubtless without founda

when he was shot, has left town, and so far
as can be . learned this rumor is probably
true, and if. so would indicate, ; as many have
already, surmised," that Talcott did the shoot
ing.. The generallstt'pposition is that both
were, in a sata of , inoxieation.and got into
a aruuKen quarrei-wnicn almost ended in a
tragedy. Thieeis a "rumor !.-Ihat the town

- THE, WAOES OF SIN.
At the New Haven Opera House last even
ing "Frank Harvey's great moral drama" of
the above title was presented. The play ex
cites interest ffom the beginning and be
comes thrilling and exciting as the crimes of
a. downward path are revealed. They were
presented last (Bvening in a realistic manner.
xne norrors and-' suffering in consequence
of vice were portrayed so forcibly
that the crowning triumph of vir
tue came . ' as a happy relief.
There is, however, a mineline of comedy and
pathos throughout the piece which affords
variety, and as. these portions were capitally
acted last evening the audience had a variety
or sensations. IjOUd laughter and applause
were rrequent, and in other wavs thev show
ed ineir appreciation, xne company is an
excellent one throughout and the perform
ance in detail is well given. It will be re
peated this evening, and to those who would
witness a powerful' melodrama with a good
motive it can oe nigniy recommended.
JOHN V. CHOWLKV'S DEATH.
The Coroner's Investigation Arrest
of Suspected Parties Probable Death
. Prom 'Alcoholism.
In the City court yesterday morning Mi
chael D. McCarthy, the "West Water street
saloon keeper, and Michael Donahue, the bar
tender for McCarthy, were charged with man
slaughter in the case of John . F. Crowley.
John McDonald, Nicholas McGroder, Patrick -
Cohen, Levi Dickinson, Patrick McGivney,
jr., William H. Doyle and Bernard Keating
were charged on the docket with a breach of
the peace against John F. Crowley. None of
the accused were brought into the court
room and there - was no hearing in
any of the cases. McCarthy, who keeps
the saloon, : was , released yesterday
morning on bonds of $1,500 which were fur- -
rushed by James McGuire, grocer, .. of 157
Wallace - street - When' released McCarthy
seemed to be stiff erine from extreme mental
excitement. Mr. Dailey is of the : opinion
that the best thing possible has been done in
the arrest of the parties who were in Mc
Carthy's saloon:; at the .time of Crowley's
aeatn. it is proposed to prone the matter to
the bottom and if possible brine all the
facts "to "light :rgarding: -Crowley's death.
That, there wasf fighting in McCarthy's sa
loon on tne aay tnat urowiey died, tnere is
no doubt." There is some doubt, how
ever, about his having been killed.The CotrR-
ikr representative saw tsrowtev BtnDDed -bv
Dr. White and there was not a bruise to be
seen anywhere upon his body. It is likely
tnat it win oe round tnat urowiey died from
alcoholism.'" If : Dr. White's autopsy shows
to the contrary, S however, the aeeused parties
are in a posit ion, that -will without doubt
brimr them to Tustice. . Last evenincr Coro

The Braughmansla at state Librarian
Hoadley's Residence.
The elegant specimen of Braughmansia at
the residence of State Librarian Charles J.
Hoadley on Ann street, Hartford, has had
fifty-one blossoms on it at one time this sea
son. The plant is a native of Peru and has
been in Mr. Hoadley's possession for a num
ber of years. - He has himself seen them
growing in the gardens of Italy, but they are
not very frequently met with in northern cli
mates. The blossoms are beautiful, each be
ing about ten inches in length and four in
diameter when full. They" are funnel
shaped, of clear white in color, and in texture
like wax work. The fragrance is strong and
pleasant, but unlike that of the night bloom
ing cereus. Sometimes- it ladens the air
around for a long distance with the sweetness.
The plant stands between five" and six feet in
height. Mr. Hoadley has a speci
men of the same plant bearing a red blos
som. This is extremely rare. Last year it
blossomed in the conservatory at Bev. Fran-cia-
Goodwin's. This season, however, there
are no buds to be seen on it.
One bearing white blossoms, owned in New
Haven, was sent to Suffield two years ago to
be cared for by Mrs. Calvin Philleo, an am
ateur horticulturist there, and surprised
everyone by blooming recently. It blos
somed every night for the week, the flowers
closing up during the dav. There were
twenty-two of the most beautiful blossoms
imaginable on the plant. It now stands
three feet or more high. - It is very suscep
tible to the cold. It budded a year ago, but
the early frost of last summer killed all the
buds. Hartford Post. -

Chapel Street Cash Grocery.
The well known and extensively patron
ized grocery store of G. M. Clark, situated at
04U Uhapel street, opposite the Elliott House,
continues to attract customers from all parts
of the city. The quality of the goods kept
there is first-class: the variety the largest
and tne prices the lowest in the city. Mr.
Clark, the enterprising proprietor, selects his
goods with great care and refuses all cheap
trash. Le thinks that it pays m the long
run to get the best goods obtainable and sell
at a small margin. As a consequence of this
method of dealing with the public his store
is thronged daily and his trade is large and
steadily increasing. See his advertisement.
Humor In the Stomach.
Much of the distress and sickness attribu
ted to dyspepsia, chronic diarrhoea .and other
causes is occasioned bv humor in the stom
ach. Several cases, with all the character
istics of these complaints, have been cured
by Hood's Sarsaparilla. . Other cures effected
by this medicine are so wonderful that the
simplest statement of them affords the best
proof that it combines rare curative agents
and when once used secures the confidence
of the people.
