THE ANARCHISTS.
Mrs. Laey Parsons Speaks at Turn
Hall to About Two Hundred and
Kilty People.
' Mrs. Lucy Parsons, wife of Parsons, one
of the condemned anarchists at Chicago,
spoke to an audience of about 250 people at
Turn Hall last evening, every seat being oc
cupied. A number of prominent New Haven
men dropped in out of curiosity to hear her.
In the course of her speech she took out her
handkerchief a red one and laid it on the
desk before her, saying:, "Pardon me; this is
not a red flag, it is only my handkerchief;
yet I love the color as it symbolizes the red
blood which flows alike in the veins of peo
ple of every nationality and color; it speaks
of a common vital bond that unites all men."
The burden of her" speech was a protest
against the sentences of the Chicago anar
chists, which she held were based on no suf
ficient evidence and rested practically on the
ground that the condemned men happened
to be leaders in the anarchist movement,
which resulted so fatally in the shocking and
appalling deeds of blood. There- was
no evidence, she maintained, except infer
ence connecting them with the tragedy. She
could not, she continued, approve of the
American flag because it sanctioned oppres
sion by grinding monopolies ; she preferred
therefore the red flag as it symbolized the
brotherhood of man. She denounced the
legal toleration of child labor in factories
and low wages which compelled men to work
exoessively to feed and clothe their families.
Men nnder such a load could have no time or
thought for the mental or moral interests of
their families. These were the chief points
in her talk, which was mostly dispassionate
and had evidently been carefully prepared.

Bridgeport A Fireman's Leg; Is
Broken.
As the 6:20 train out ef New York last
evening was between Fairfield and Bridge
port at Fairfield river the engineer discov
ered that a man had been struck by a down
train probably. The man was lying on the
ground near the track and , men were stand
ing about him. " The engineer stopped and
backed the train, down and it came to a stop
on the Fairfield bridge. The . fireman, Mr,
Benjamin Thayer of Hartford, in proceeding
to render assistance stepped off, not know
ing that the engine was on , the bridge, it
being dark at the time, and fell through be
tween the ' ties to the water below. The
water was about a foot deep. Mr. Thayer
crawled up to the foot of the embankment,
being badly injured, and was lifted into the
baggage car and when the train arrived at
Bridgeport a dispatch was sent calling Dr.
Frank Whittemore. of this city, to the case.
The dispatch was not received in time and
the dootor not being at the train when it ar
rived, here the injured man was taken on to
Hartford to receive medical aid there. His
ankle appeared to be either badly dislocated
or broken. The man who was lying on the
track at Fairfield river was dead. He had
bad wound in the hip and there was a terri
ble contusion on the left side of his head.
He appeared to be a laborer, about forty-five
or fifty years of age. No one who saw him
Was able to identify him. His remains

WEST HAVEN.
The Typhoid Fever Cases The Re
mainder of the Patients Improving:
The Oyster and Sewage,
Dr. W. G. Ailing said last evening to a
Courier reporter on the subject of the sick
people in West Haven who, it was thought,
became ill with typhoid fever from eating
oysters tainted with typhoid fever germs,
said germs being supposed to have come from
sewage: "I noticed by the Courier this
morning the announcement of the death of
Mr. Clinton, one of the persons who were
taken ill, and who was attended by Dr.
Shepard. The history of the case is about as
follows: Four weeks ago I was called to at
tend Frank Thomas and daughter, who had
come down with typhoid fever. As they had
not been away from home, except that Mr.
and Mrs. Thomas attended the Danbury fair,
I considered they had only been affected by
local conditions. Mi's. Thomas was not taken
ill. I examined the cellar and the surround
ings and found nothing likely to cause the
disease. There were no cesspools and no
foul places. I then sent some of the water
of the wells to Dr. Jenkins, of the Agricul
tural experiment station, who analyzed it
and reported it all right. The water sent
was specimens from two wells, tbat from
Mr. Thomas' and some from a well next door
belonging to a relative of Mr. T. The milk
used by the family, whioh is furnished by
Mr. Thomas' brother, was also exam
ined and found to be perfectly pure.
In conversation with Mrs. Thomas the
latter stated that nineteen days previous to
the illness of her husband ana daughter
they had eaten heartily of raw oysters bought
of Mr. Clinton. As typhoid fever incubates
in about twenty-one days, I imagined that
the germs might have come from those oys
ters. It now appears that these oysters came
from the harbor flats and not from West
river. It is very possible that these oysters
were affected while uncovered at low tide by
fever germs from, sewage, as we could not
attribute it to any other source. - I believe
that these shallow-bed oysters will be ana
lyzed in order to ascertain if they oontain
any bacteria. Miss Thomas is convaleeoing
and her father is out of danger, though he
still had some fever to-day, and the three
Clintons are convalescing. As it is the gen
eral opinion tbat typhoid fever is propagated
by germs from some given case, I think some
01 these oysters exposed to eewage should
be examined. It is possible that no bacteria
will be found, but an analysis should be
made.
"The examination of samples of water in
such cases as there is done at the State ex
pense, the State providing for it in behalf of
the public health, now X cannot, of course.
say that the oysters were-pollnted with ty
phoid fever germs occasioned by contact with
sewerage, but when typhoid fever occurs
and breaks out as it did in this case among
a number or people almost simultaneously,
we mnst expect some cause for it. The well
water, both samples, was reported by Dr.
Jenkins pure and healthful." Dr. Ailing in
conclusion said: "I am constitutionally op
posed to saying anything detrimental to the
oyster, having, a gustatonal predilection
for the bivalves, but on the score of sanitary
science there is an interesting question in
volved in these cases."
The late Mr. Clinton, who died on Mon
day, was 36 years of age and' leaves a wife
and four children. He was employed at the
buckle shop but occasionally sold oysters.
The report in an evening paper that the
oysters complained of came from West river
and were thought to be tainted with typhoid
fever germs emanating from' sewage was
ridiculed in some quarters, it being a well
known fact that but few sewers empty into
West river, and these at a considerable dis
tance from the West river oyster beds, and
now that the oysters complained of are
found to have come from the harbor beds,
the enquiry arises, first, were the oysters
eaten by the West Haven peo
ple in question tainted at all, and
second, if tainted, were they contaminated
by sewage! These questions will probably
remain open for debate. In the meantime
people will go on eating oysters much the
same as hitherto, especially if they are fat
and luscious, whether they come from the
waters of the West or Qninnipiao rivers, the
harbor, the Sound or from Chesapeake Bay,

James A. Heme's "Minute Men" will be
produced at the New Haven Opera House
to-morrow, Friday and Saturday evenings
and Saturday afternoon. Crowded so full of
startling but familiar olimaxes is "The Min
ute Men" that it seems almost like a melo
dramatic potpouri. Yet the story is a con
tinuous, an interesting and a complete one.
The tableau of Bunker Hill is very fine. The
play has been warmly and enthusiastically
received.
CARLL'S OPERA HOUSE.
Denman Thompson will appear at Carll's
this and to-morrow evenings in his new play
"The Old Homestead" which is a continua
tion of "Uncle Josh." Of the little host of
new characters introduced, few seem strangers,
and it is evident that most have been drawn
from actual examples in real life. It is in
this respect that "The Old Homestead" is
strongest. The interest of the play depends

THS WORLD.
"The World," one of the best of melo
dramas, is drawing large audiences at Bun
nell's. Last evening this popular resort was
packed with a very appreciative audience,
and Mr. L. F. Spencer as Charles Hartley
was as vigorously applauded as Simon J.
Forham (Mose Jewell) and L. Ml. McGregor
(Harry Huntmgford). Miss Meroe Charles
(Mabel Huntingford) and Miss May Tucker
(Mary Elythe) did good work. Miss Clara
Sea crook as riea. eiicitea universal applause.
The minor parts were in the hands of Messrs.
Ed H. Thayer, Richard Griffin, W. H. Col
lines. J. W. Neely. H. Leslie, G. W. Samp
son, Fred Pierce, . John Adams, E. Wilkin
son, J. B. Cooper, W. Simms, Walter Haw
ly, B. Thompson and A. W. Smith.
. THS GBKAT HERMANN.
The great. Hermann, admirably seconded
by Mme. Hermann, delighted a large audi
ence at the New Haven Opera House last
evening. Whether or not ne deserves tne ti
tle he bears, no one in the theater doubted at
the close of the performance if he or she did
at the beginning. Hermann's greatness con
sists in the wonderful perfection he has at
tained in every branch or his art. JLven
when he executed tricks with which one is
familiar his surpassing cleverness and grace
lend it a new charm, and it must be said, by
the way, in justice to Hermann that what he
does is in very small degree what anybody
else has originated. Whom, indeed, should
he, the copied, copy after? Besides an abun
dant variety of minor tness minor
only comparatively speaking so marvel
lous or bo artful, ei her one chooses
to call it, as to completely deceive the slow-
moving senses and leave one completely per
plexed, the magician introduced the now
famous ferial suspension and the raging sen
sation, the creation of - Hermann himself,
the vanishing lady. . That the lady does
vanish we know, - but it is quite impossible
to detect how the marvelous deception is ac
complished. The dissolving views intro
duced were very fine and a pleasant diversion,
winning enthusiastic applause. A matinee
will be given to day, when the programme
will be changed materially.
"What's the matter, Tommiet" "Papa,

This is the month when those troubled

. Krnptlon or the Skin Cared.
Rockvixjjc, Ontario, Canada, Decmber 2,
1885. I have used Brandreth's pills for the
past fifteen years and think them the best
cathartic and anti-bilious remedy , known.
For some five years I suffered with an erup
tion of the skin that gave me great pain and
annoyance. I tried different blood remedies,
but, although gaining strength, the itching
was unrelieved. I finally concluded to take
a thorough course of Brandreth's pills. I
took six each night for four nights, then
five, four, three, two, lessening each time by
one, and then for one month took one every
night, with the happy result that now my
skin is perfectly clear and has been so
ever since. Ed Vimnrr,
