The following appeared in the January 14th issue of the Lanesboro Jonrnal, pab lished at Lanesboro, Fillmore county, Min nesota: ' . . Menrr C. Klaealey. We hare already briefly m ntioned the death of Henry C. Kingsley of New Haven, Conn., from the eSeet of a carriage accident occurring October 27 last. He was the son of Prof. James I. Eingsley, was a graduate of Yale college and Law school and since 1802 the treasurer of the Yale corporation. He was also a director of the National New Haven bank and one of the founders and trustees of the Lanesboro company. In all his trusts, and especially in the management of Yale college financial affairs, he exhibited not only the nigbest integrity, dui sagacity and finanoial wisdom and judgment rarely equalled. His death is a great loss, both to his immediate relatives and friends and to all the enterprises with which he was con nected. We in Lanesboro feel the blow, for it was by his suggestions that Mr. James M. lown send accented the position of supervising trustee, and to Mr. Kingsley he especially looked tor encouragemeni in nis projeui. The following extract from a private letter, written by Mr. Townsend, shows how much Mr. Kingsley and himself had become inter ested in Lanesboro s rut are: 'It is a great loss to Yale college, to the church of which he was a deacon, this city and State, as well as a treat loss to Lanesboro, the latter be cause he approved of a plan I submitted to him for the future course of the trustees of the Lanesboro compauy,and would have, with influence and 'mate rial aid united with me in doing what, if it didn't have been of ereat benefit to Lanesboro. for what Mr Kingsley and myself had intended to do would have induced others to unite with us in that which I thiult would have made Lanesboro once more a nourishing: village. The following resolutions of respect were adopted by tne village ooara or traae at its meeting Wednesday, January o, loot: Whebitas, The hand of divine providence has removed from his temporal laoor, uenry u. a. ngs ley of New Haven, Conn. , calling from the active UUtlBS Of 11LO Due luug luruuimi wiw vug .uiw.tow of our people, and one whom all had learned (o re gard for his high character and many virtues; therefore be it Resolved, That this board of trade, as a repre sentative bodv of the citizens of Lanesboro. express its sense of loss in the death of this good man. one of the founders and always a constant friend of our town and one, who. at the time of his death, was planning for the future welfare of Lanes boro. Resolved, That we express to his bereaved friends our heartfelt sympathies, assuring them that we share their loss with profound sorrow. Resolved, That these resolutions be made a part of the records of this board of trade and that a copy of them be published in the Lanesboro Journal and that a copy of them be sent to his sur viving family friends. Handsome Tribute to Fellow Townsman. The following is from one of the leading papers of Ohio: The "historian" reached his home on Crown street in this city on the 14th iost., hale and hearty, with health and youth renewed. Devoted to so great and useful work, for whieh he is so eminently fitted, it has added strength, fame, happi ness and the material aid to himself and fam ily well deserved, bravely and honorably earned. We extend a cordial New Year's greeting. Henry Howe And His History or Ohio. There is no person living to whom the people of Ohio in the last generation were so much indebted in giving them a knowledge of and pride in their State as to Henry Howe, its early historian. In January, 1846, he, then a yonng man, the son of a bookseller, left his home in New Haven, Coan., came over the mountains by stage and then on the back of a white horse named in irony "Pomp," for he was an hum ble creature, made the entire tour of the State, thus passing more than a year exam ining the records, collecting historical docu ments and taking down from the lips of the still living pioneers their early reoollections. But for him a great deal of valuable histor i -al matter relating to Ohio would have been forever lost. Pencil sketches of the county seats and ob jects of historical or other interest were made by him on the spot and the result was, six months after his return, "Howe's Historical Collections of Ohio," illustrated with 177 en gravings and by all odds the most entertain ing and valuable work on Ohio ever publish ed, and those who have been so fortunate in late years as to get hold of a stray copy know how to praise the treasure. On the publication of bis work Mr. Howe became a resident of Cincinnati for thirty years and then returned to his native city, where he remained until November of 1885, when he came out to Ohio a second time to ravel the State for a new edition of his fam ous work. lew men, perhaps no other man, wenld have the elan and audacity to undertake such a labor at his time of life; few, .indeed, at any time of lite eonld promise to do it as thoroughly and well. A week since, on Christmas ere, he was ble to thns telegraph to his family: "To my beloved ones at 184 Crown street, New Haven: "After a lapse of forty years from the first my second historic tonr over Ohio is fin ished. Glory to God and a happy Christ mas. "Henry Howl." In his late tonr over Ohio Mr. Howe has visited every county of the State, collected a vast deal of new matter and made arrange ments with about a hundred different local photographers for illustrations of tfeeir re spective towns and general objects of inter est. The idea is to have the matter of the old work contained in the new, the Ohio of 1846, when it was emerging from the log cabin era, contrasted with the Ohio of 1886, even to the pictures of the towns to give its grand history of the past forty rears, in cluding of course its war history and notices of eminent persons whose services hare en titled them to a place in such a work. It is proposed to publish the work by sub scription in the ensning fall and in two large octaro volumes, illustrated by, say, five hun dred engravings and maps. It will be a work worthy of tne advanced greatness of the Slate, showing it in its varied features, and such a one as no State ever has had, and probably such as no other can hare under the same extraordinary circumstances of authorship Altbouiili over seventy rears of age Mr. Howe surprises those who meet hira. He is overflowing with enthusiasm and love for bis task, and tbia he says makes for him every passing hour an hour of joy. He wants to do the best he can for this great state "the native State of my children, who are born Buckeyes, which I, through no fault of my own, never was." The 7Late Henry K. Stanton The Lit tle Bed School House. Henry B. Stanton, one of the early anti- slavery agitators and a noted journalist, who died in New York Friday of pneumonia, was born in Pachaug, New London county, now in the town of uriswold, June 27, 1805. Thomas Stanton, the first of the family iu New England, came from England in 1635 and was crown interpreter general of the In dian tongues, and subsequently judge of the county court of New. London. On his mother's side Mr. Stanton's ancestry ran to Elder Brewster, of the Plymouth colony. His father was a woollen manufacturer and a trader with the West Indies. A little red school house in Pachang, and a rickety acad emy in Jewett City, a place on what is now known as the Thames river, furnished ' Mr. Stanton his education before he entered pub lic life. George D. Prentice, was one of his teachers, and by him the field of newspaper work was laid bare to the young student. Colonel Trary B. Warren's Tokonas. The Bridgeport News says that Colonel Tracy B. Warren, formerly of New Haren, has invented a new way of going down a toboggan slide. Ha seems to hare been will ing that someone else should hare the glory of ttsting it, for the News says: "Miss Julia Billings was the first to adopt the new and expensive system. She gathered her heavy wrap carefully around her and went down the smooth icy chute seated only on her cloak. Colonel Warren followed. A num ber of other ladies and gentlemen appreciat ing the invention also followed suit. This was kept up for some time." Home For the Friendless.

President Hoadley B. Ives of tha Fair Ha ven and Westville horse railroad remarked yesterday, in riew of the continued and un remitting reign of snow and ice this winter, that there had never been a winter within his recollection where there had been so much trouble made by the snow deposit on the tracks and the icy condition of them as since the beginning of winter. With regard to the complaints from West Chapel street some time ago the petition of residents along this branch of the road was submitted to the committee of the directors. The petition asked thatall West Chapel street cars should be run straight down to State street without change. Heretofore, in the winter season wheu the horses were necessarily doubled up, the cars were run so as to give one car in 18 minutes. Tha committee instructed the offi cers of the road to so arrange as to have every car irom r air Haven connect with the West Chapel street car, thus giv ing a car once in twelve minutes instead of once in eighteen minutes. The petition of the West Chapel street people is beinir con sidered and if acted upon favorably, as will probably be the case, it will take one car and ten norses more than are now nsed. beginning next Bpring, -when there will be cars to w estviue once in twelve minutes. Heretofore, when doubled up, the cars nsed to run once in twenty-four hours thronghout the entire lengtn or tne route, but when doubled np it is with the Fair Haven and Westville as it is with ererr horse railroad company in the country the cars cannot be run so frequently. This year, notwithstanding the extra labor caused by the snow, cars have been run once in twelve minutes to the corner of State and Chapel streets and Broadway and University Plaoe and once in twelve cars mere through West Chapel street. The necessity for this doubling np all pa trons of the road can see. The travel is very hard in places. As soon as the trouble is ovet and the company can run with the same number of horses as in good weather the cars will run as hitherto every six minntes be tween University Place and Fair Haven. The double tracks hare made a great ex pense for the company, which has paid not less than $1,000 for the removal of snow since these snow storms blockaded travel. The double tracks make more expense to the company on account of the circum stances that the track runs so near the enrbs of the sidewalks that the snow has to be carried away in carts. There are condition's of the track when the cars cannot make reg ular time, do what they may, and they have done everything that could be done this win ter to satisfy the people. If there are com plaints, there should also be some consider ation of the embarrassing state brought about by the winter's storms. Last Friday, for instance, a car was detained at the railvoad crossing at the Steamboat dock twelve minntes, which is a frequent occurrence. Therefore, the oar leaving the corner of York street for West Chapel street was detained. Passengers bad to make connection with the car. Again, between Sunday and Monday last week it took thirty horses to clear thu track so as to open it for traffic on Monday morning, and the horses conld do no more work that day. The company, Mr. Ives continued, will have cars to Westville every twelve minutes soon. "Certainly there has not been since I recollect a harder winter than this for horse car travel. I assure you we are doing onr best and making every effort to overoome the troubles caused by ice and snow." Fire In North Branford. The new barn of Jerome Harrison, rained at about $1,000, located in North Branford, was burned to the ground abont 9 o'clock Sunday night. The entire contents of hay, straw and wagons, but no stock, were de stroyed. The fire was of incendiary origin. Small tracks were seen about the barn, indi cating that a boy did the deed. The barn was partially insured. THKCODUTKKVOHD. City Court Criminal Side JTudce Demfsg:.

Frank Cook, a colored man, assaulted his wife Saturday night, and in the fight which resulted between the couple he cut her with fork. Judge Demmg suspended judgment, as Cook's wife said she struck her husband first. HIS CASE CONTINUED. Patrick Mitchell, against whom a warrant was issued some time ago for violation of the Sunday liquor law and who left town, has not yet been found. The case was again contin ued in the City court yesterday. A CASE WITH AN UNEXPECTED DENOUEMENT. The case of Charles H. Bartholomew rs. Jonathan J. Bartholomew was heard before Justice John C. Gallagher yesterday. It is a suit to recover $100 damages for wages al leged to be due the plaintiff from the defend ant, his father. The yonng man is a minor and bronght the suit by his friend, Elmer F. Culver. The plaintiff, however, was arrested, while on his way to testify yesterday morn ing. Attorney Tuttle, who is the plaintiff's lawyer, thought Attorney Lihsley, who ap peared for the defendant, had concocted the scheme of arresting young Bartholomew on an old charge which had never come to trial and thus prevented the plaintiff testifying in the case, and the attorney became nigniy in dignant. Jnstice Gallagher continued the case till afternoon to give Attorney Tuttle a chance to get his client out ot jail. -But tins could not be done, as Sheriff Gates was out. of town and young Bartholomew could not be released within the jail limits. The case was continued until next Thursday morning at 9 o'clock. The trial of a suit bronght by Mrs. Mary P. Bartholomew, the wife of the plaintiff who is in jail, against her father-in-law for wages was heard yesterday afternoon. The two suits are almost identical. JUDGE DEMINO WILL PRESIDE. .

B. Thorpe, Whitney Elliott and F. H. Todd. The Mite society is to meet on Wednesday evening at the house of A. B. Clinton. The lecture and stereopticon views by Jndge L. P. Deming last Thursday evening were well given and elicited much praise from those who attended the entertainment. S. B. Thorpe, the new president of the Bradley library, is quite popular, and the edict to close doors promptly at nine o'clock in the evening is observed and things are progressing finely. The officers of the Bradley library enter tainment course are in correspondence with the West Haven Dramatic club to give an exhibition here at no distant day. Albert B.

A SERMON WHICH MAT HAVE HAD REFERENCE TO THE THEOLOGICAL CONTROVERSIES OF THE TIMES. Oxford, Jan. 17. The Congregational pastor's discourse yesterday was founded on the statement by Peter (2 Peter, 2, 4), "God pared not tha angels that sinned." Tha tpeakar sought to show that tha angels were i created in large numbers at first; that they were created most likely before an orb of the universe was created; that they were proba bly "the sons of God" who shouted for joy at the successive creations of the universe; that an immense number of these angels under the lead of Diabolos in the exercise of their free agency sinned through pride and desire of higher rank than enjoyed by them; that they were a party to a mighty war even in heaven; that they were cast out of heaven by the good angels under the lead of Michael down into Tartarns, their headquarters ever since; that they issued forth from this low depth of Hades, in the time of Jesus, by legions under the name of "unclean spirits" and "demons" and at the time of the apos tles as principalities and powers. The preacher submitted that it was plain enough that Diabolos, as good an angel as Michael was for a time, made himself the bad angel that he became through his sinning; that his sinning and its consequences to him and his wicked party confirmed the good angels most likely in goodness; that demons were no doubt abroad now as aforetime tempting men to sin, men's unconsciousness of such temptation to the contrary notwithstanding. Last evening an interesting and in structive showing was made by Dr. Barnes in the chnrch vestry relative to the days of creation spoken of in Genesis. Deacon Limbnrner contributed much to the inter est of the occasion. He is superintendent of the Sunday school and has no fear that science will disturb the Bible rightly inter preted. He allows the six days to have been epochs of time, but insists that the Sabbath is a day of twenty-four hours; one-seventh of the time of our present weeks. The International Snnday school lessons furnish good topics for the serious consider ation of youth and adults in all lands. Prospect. Prospect, Jan. 17. Rev. Mr. Baker, of Waterbnry, preached at the Advent chapel last Monday evening and Bev. Seth Wood ruff last Sabbath.

A DEEP, DARK MYSTERY WILD RUMORS WHAT THE INVESTIGATION REVEALS. The children known as the "Mission band," connected with the Methodist Sun day school, are supporting and educating a little girl in India named Allie Thompson after one of the band, who died in Derby some months ago. This eompany of little ones is preparing an entertainment,a "Flow er Festival," which will be given ia a few weeks, some evening, in the parlors of A. H. Ailing. There will be an admission fee, and the receipts are for a fund to aid the India girl. The sermon preached by Eev. Mr. Eggles ton Sunday morning is criticised as a rery able and logical defense of the orthodox faith as against agnostic materialism. The remark has been made that Derby can fnrnish at short notice any item sensational in the annals of crime or deviltry, and it does seem that the public who hanker after this peculiar kind of en tertainment, that is the species of excitement that flows from the contemplation of mysterious accidents, hasty arrivals on the Stygian shore and a puzzling juxtaposition of strange circum stances, ought to be regaled to their hearts' longing by tha reports ever and anon in which the medical examiner of Derby is obliged to interest himself. There is not a month that passes without a mysterious or untimely death being reported. The latest budget for the newspapers is an Ansonia incident hawked on the street Monday morn ing as a murder. A report has been sent by Medical Examiner Beardsley to the registrar of the death of an infant probably by the hand of another. The facts are these: In a three story house owned by Wales Terrell in Ansonia on Central street, east Of Beaver street, live several colored families; one by name is Lewis. The husband is Fred and the wife Denoy Norton Lewis. They have lived unhappily since marriage and Fred deserted her last November. This woman was delivered of a female child Friday. No physician was present,a sister of the woman, Mary, being the only assistant. The child, although born alive, died, and suspicion of foul play having arisen, a barber, Lake, re ported the event and allowed a cloud to rest on the story which was told to Medical Ex aminer Beardsley, who, with his usual energy and tact as a medical deteotive, proceeded at once to sift the facts. Had it not been for an embarrassing accident to the woman when confined it is altogether probable that no doctor would have been called, and had greater care been taken it is quite likely the condition of the woman would have been known to a limited few and no report of a birth have been embalmed on the records of the registrar of vital statistics. Dr. Beards ley, after listening to rumors, investigated the case and found that the child, accord ing to the testimony of the mother, lived fifteen minntes. The body was on a shelf in a closet in the room of the patient and was wrapped np, waiting, as the mother said, for burial by somebody. The medical ex aminer closely inspected the body and dis covered on the face, extending from the right cheek across the nose to the inner corner of the left eye, abrasions or scratches, which nnder a magnifying glass demonstrated themselves as impressions or indentations of finger nails. The appearance of the body strongly encouraged the medical examiner to suspect some crooked work, and the burial was contradicted. Coroner Mix was noti fied, and Snnday afternoon these two offi cials went through the evidence, reach ing the conclusion that it was a case of infanticide. The testimony was re served for subsequent action and the coroner is now at liberty to proceed if there is war rantable evidence in the premises. The sto ries as given by the parties interviewed were tinged with contradictions and the coroner and medical examiner believe there is a tub to the whale. The investigation of this death instances the benefit of the coroner's law. Without such a statute the facts could not have been -weighed so rapidly and exhaustive ly and at an expense far less to the State than the old course of procedure would have involved.

The stock market opened strong and H to 14 higher for a majority of stocks, but after the first few minutes the course of prices was irregular fluctuating at frequent intervals up to noon. The feature of the morning's trading was Richmond and West Point. The slock advanced 1 per cent. to53 in the early trading and then declined to4Sl before 11:45, recovering later toM)J4- There was no reason for these wide fluctuations In the stock except the statement that tha agreement between Richmond Terminal and East Tennessee had not baen signed. At noon prices were irregularly changed from those of Saturday evening. Some of the list showed declines of 3tf to 3H ; others ad vances from 4 to 1 per cent. The strongest stocks were Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati and Indianapolis, Michigan Central, Manhattan Ele vated, Chattanooga and Pacific Mail.

LYON, NO. 49 CHURCH STREET, The well known and reliable Botanic and Eclectic Physician Room 11, Hoadley Building Side Entrance 123 Crown Street. (Opposite tbe Postoffice.) Office so arranged that patients see no oue bu the doctor. Who has practiced medicine in this city since JS54 can be consulted at his office. Dr. Lyon's success in the treatment of all dis , eases has been marvelous and his fame has spread throughout the length and breadth of the United States. Being opposed to all mineral and poisonous drugs, he has selected choice and potent remedial a from the vegetable kingdom only, and with val uable roots, barks and herbs Is prepared to CURE the most stubborn and in tractive disease. Con sumption, that bane of our eastern climate, which causes so many to succumb to its ruthless power, 1 CURED by Dr. Lyon, as many testimonials from unimpeachable witnesses attest. Dyspepsia, the national scourge, which dooms thousands to tor ture and misery, is routed and annihilated by a rem edy discovered by the doctor. In no case yet has this Inestimable specific failed of banishing that painful disease. All diseases of the Lungs, Liver and Kidneys, as well as Skin Diseases, and all Im purities of the Blood of whatever name and na ture, are radically and permanently cured in a surprisingly short time by the doctor's improved method of treatment. TO FEMALES: The special diseases to which females are subject are treated with perfect success by Dr. Lyon.
