ELIHC YALE.
Copied from a Portrait 830 Tears Old.
When Ellhu Yale founded that time hon
ored institution of learning, Yale College, he
struck a blow at ignorance that has rever
berated for more than two centuries through
out the length and breadth of the land, and
placed his name in the foremost rank of
America's public benef actors. But a greater
scourge than ignorance is now running
rampant in our midst. Do you know what
ails you when you have a dull headache ; no
appetite; nothing -tastes good that you eat;
specks pass before your eyes ; low spirits ;
an irri table and peevish temper ; bowels con
stipated; an appearance of red or white
brick dust in the mine ; a tired feeling and
don't know what ails you ? You have fallen
a victim to that modern scourge, Malaria.
Nothing on this earth will tone you up so
quickly and arrest the progress of Malaria
as Lewis' Ked Jacket Bitters, the only sure
cure for Dumb Ague, Chills and Fever, and
all forms of Malaria. Don't wait till you
are on your back but begin at once the use
of Lewis' Bed Jacket Bitters.

$400,000 The Plana Submitted to

Important Committee Hearing-.
Hartford, Feb. 23.
Special to the Journal and Courier:
The fact that to-day was the anniversary
of Washington's birth presented no obstaole
to the State's lawmakers from transacting
whatever business came before them. There
were many spectators, principally ladies and
escorts, about the Capitol lobbies while the
House was in session. The committees did
not do much business this afternoon.
Senate bill 56, concerning salaries of sher
iffs in addition to fees was taken np by the
oommittee on judiciary this afternoon. Ow
ing to the Democratic caucus being held in
the regular meeting room of the committee.
th Supreme court room, the hearing took
place in the ante room adjoining the court
room. There were sheriffs present from
nea.-ly every county in the State, and many
interested spectators. The bill provides that
in addition to the fee allowed by law each
sheriff shall receive from the State a salary
annually of $1,000, and that the act shall
take effect June 1, 1887. Chairman of the
Republican State central committee Day
made the introductory address to the com
mittee. He was followed by High Sheriff
Allen of L,itchHeld county. All the parties
heard were strongly in favor of the bill.
Addresses were made by Sheriff flankins
of New London county, Sheriff Spaulding of
Hartford county, Sheriff Gates of New Haven
county, Sheriff Pomeroy of Windham coun
ty, Sheriff Schwartz of Fairfield county, Mr.
Fhelan of Bridgeport and Judge Elmer of
Middlesex county. The committee seemed
favorably impressed by the addresses and
will undoubtedly recommend the passage of
the bill.
Professor Siineon E. Baldwin, of New Ha
ven, advocated House bill 14, authorizing
joint stock companies to issue preferred
stock. A short hearing was also given be
fore this committee on the bills amending
the law relating to medicines and poisons; on
amending the tramp law and punishing the
destruction of electric light wires.
John H. Davis, the man sentenced to im
prisonment for life for abetting the murder
of Deputy Warden Shipman, petitioned the
legislature for release. It will be remem
bered he let Hamlin, Allen and Hamilton
out of their cells when they killed the war
den. He furnished them with rope, mana
cles, pistols and cartridges. He recently pe
titioned the board of pardons for a release,
but was unsuccessful. The committee on
State prison to-day voted not to give his
case a hearing. He had a resolution intro
duced in the House through his counsel pe
titioning for a release.
The committee on constitutional amend
ments have decided to report favorably on
the prohibitory amendment to the State con
stitution. This is supposed in lieu of all
other liquor legislation. The report is likely
to pass in both branches.
The ralroad committee held a short hear
ing on the bill providing for a new bride at
Lyme over the Connecticut river. Vice
President E. M. Reed and Superintendent O.
M. Sheppard were present at the hearing. It
was not supposed until a week ago that the
consent of the legislature would be necessa
ry to enable the Consolidated road to erect
the new bridge. There is, however, no op
position to tue erection of the bridge. The
plans for the new structure were shown to
the committee this afternoon and explained
by Vice President Reed. The bridge will be
ten feet higher than the present structure,
and will be of iron. It will be arranged for
one track, but the piers will be wide enough
for a double track should it be required.
The cost of theimprovemeet will be $400,000.
It is the intention of the company, Baid Mr.
Reed, to begin work as soon as the spring
season fairly opens.
The insurance committee were in session
this afternoon. Senate bill 78 concerning in
surance brokers was heard. It provides for
their paying an annual tax of $10 per annum.
There were but few interested parties pres
ent. House bill 222 concerning payment of
interest on paid up life policies was also
given a hearing. The bill provides that in
surance companies pay three per cent, to all
parties insured in their companies, who hold
paid np policies. The bill was strenuously
opposed by Colonel J. L. Greene, president
of the Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance
company.
The committee on finance had a hearing on
House bill 73 increasing the tax of mutual
life insurance companies. The bill, which is
quite a lengthy one, provides for raising a
tax on mutual lifs insurance companies from
one-fourth to one-half of one percent.; the
tax to be laid on the total amount of its pre
mium notes, and on market value
of all other assets; deducting un
paid loses, and the market value
of real estate liable to taxation and State or
town bonds used in aid of the construction
of railroads which are then exempt from tax
ation. If the company has also stock held
as mutual the market value of such assets
belonging to stock debt is exempted from
taxation. Representative Gunn of Mil
ford favored the bill in a strong speech.
C. J. Cole, of Hartford, appeared in opposi
tion. The bill will be heard again at a future
and nnassigned date, at which several other
interested parties are expected to be present.
A bill was rejected by the House to-day
which provided for several radical changes
in the military system. It was championed
before the committee on military affairs by
Captain Williams, of Hartford, but the com
mittee to-day reported adversely on the bill
to the House.
There will be many important committee
hearings to morrow (Wednesday). The as
signments are: Agriculture resolution for
the purchase of the Meriden Park association
grounds; appropriations bill for a State
printing office; cities and boroughs bill au
thorizing New Haven to issue sewer bonds
and resolution concerning dividing line be
tween New Haven and Orange; constitutional
amendments resolution for a compilation of
the constitution; federal relations tariff re
form and protection resolutions; finance
bill exempting from taxation $1,000 of prop
erty of soldiers' wives and petition for ex
emption from taxation of $1,000 of those who
furnished substitutes in the war; fish
eries petition for abolishing shell
fish commission and several petitions
to lessen the expenses of such commission;
humane intstitutions, bill concerning com
mitment of children to orphan asylums in
New Havei) and petition for State control of
inebriate asylams; judiciary, bill for a crimi
nal side of the Common Pleas court in New
Haven; labor bill that children under thir
teen may be employed on a certificate from
the selectmen, bill exempting $50 from at
tachment and a petition for lien law to se
cure workingmen's wages; military affairs,
bill permitting the C. N. G. to parade in
New Haven at dedication of soldiers' tnonn
merit; roads and bridges, bills regulating
payment for support of bridges in and be
tween towns.
- Two bills came before the judiciary to-day
which were not fully announced. Una of
them provided that one of the parties inter
ested in seeking a divorce should be a resi
dent of the State. It was advocated by
Prof. Simeon E. Baldwin, of New Haven.
The other provided that the State's attorney
should represent the State in all cases where
the parties seeking a divorce are mutual ly
agreed.

SECOND SEASON.
The Church Choral Association Next
Season' Programme,
The invitations are out for the second sea
son of the Church Choral association. Dur
ing this season have been given Oratorio se
lections and the festival service on Easter
Tuesday, Barnby's Idyl, "Rebecca," at the
first concert, and a programme made up of
part songs and glees at the second. The
chorus, numbering 125 voices, shows the re
sults of a year's faithful work, and is thor
oughly equipped for another season.
Encouraged by this success, the directors
propose for the next season one or more
concerts, admission to which will be confined
to the active and associate members and
their friends, and a festival service at which
the most desirable pews will be likewise re
served. This service, assisted by the vested
choir, will be at Trinity church on the even
ing of St. Mark's day, April 25. The date
of the concerts will be announced hereafter.
We understand that from three to five re
served seats will be given to each associate
member and that no tickets for admission to
the concert will be sold. This is quite a new
departure for New Haven and it is to be
hoped that this venture on the part of the
directors of tbe Church Choral association
will be successful.

How the Truth About Railroad Acci
dent la Suppressed.
From the Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution.
You that happen to be riding on a
railroad train this morning, I wish to drop
a few words into your ear. I don't un
derstand . one very remarkable thing about
the management of railroads. If an aeoi
should occur while I am talking to you,
and you should be torn into shreds and
scattered over three counties, do you know
what the managers of the railroad would
do ? They would do everything in their
power to prevent the details of the acci
dent from becoming known to the public.
This is one thine I don't understand.
In recent years railroad managers have
grown more and more secretive about ao-
oidents. When one occurs a mighty "Hush"
is flashed along the wires to every agent.
Immediately after, "Beware of newspaper
reporters" is flashed along. Do you know
that a railroad employe is made to under
stand that the most heinous sin he can com
mit is to breath even a single word of in
formation concerning a railroad accident!
Whether you know it or not, it is true.
Yon see, there is a reason known only
to railroad managers why accidents should
not be made public. I have heard it
whispered that they are afraid to make
them public because of possible injury to
the railroad's business. If this be the
reason, then I think railroad managers are
sadly mistaken. Suppose a case. Suppose
two trains should collide on a Dridge and
that the shock should tear down the bridge,
completely blocking the railroad for sev
eral days, suppose all news or tne acci
dent should be suppressed and tne unsus
pecting public should be purchasing tickets
and shipping perishable freight. Wouldn't
it be reasonable to suppose that the public
would be greatly incensed when it discovered
how it had been imposed upon! The pub
lic certainly would be greatly incensed, just
as it has been times out or namoer. sup
pose a little more. Suppose a newspaper
reporter as he doubtless would should
receive some shadow of information about
the accident. Unable to obtain the de
tails he would do just as has been done hun
dreds of times; he would print a story com
posed chiefly of rumors and conjectures. Ru
mors and conjectures, I have noticed, are
always more damaging to railroads than the
ungarbled, unvarnished truth.

People formerly had, trying to swallow

ness ; and what a contrast to Ayer's
Pills, that have been well called " med
icated sugar-plums" the only fear be
ing that patients may be tempted into
taking too many at a dose. But the
directions are plain and should bo
strictly followed. "
J. T. Teller, M. D., of Chittenango,
N. Y., expresses exactly what hundreds
have written at greater length. He
says: " Ayer's Cathartic Pills are highly
appreciated. They are perfect in form
and coating, and their effects are all
that the most careful physician could
desire. They hare supplanted all the
Pills formerly popular here, and I think
it must be long before any other can
be made that -will at all compare with
them. Those who buy your pills get
full value for their money."
" Safe, pleasant, and certain in
their action," is the concise testimony
of Dr. George E. Walker, of Martins

GOOD ADVICE
To be Observed In Selecting;
Spectacles or Eye Glasses
Some people think there is no difference in the
quality of glass that lenses are made from, an-1
that common glass, providing the lenses have the
proper curvature and are of equal focus, are as
rood for the eyes asja higher priced article. Now
if this idea is true and worthy- of consideration in
purcnasing spectacles or eye glasses, it is equally
true and worthy of consideration in selecting
cloth, flour, butter, and various other commodities.
for there is as much difference in the quality of
glass that lenses are made from as there is in these
and numerous other commodities essential to every
day life. My stock embraces the finest goods in
their respective grades, and will bear inspection.

To tlte Cuticura Remedies I
Owe My Health, My Happi
ness and My Life.
A day never passes that I do not think and speak
kindly of the Cuticura Remedies. Seven years
ago all of a dozen lumps formed on my neck, rang
ing in sice from a cherry stone to an orange. The
large ones were frightful to look at, and painful to
bear; people turned aside when they saw me, in dis
gust, and I was ashamed to be on the street or in
society. Physicians and their treatment, and all
medicines failed to do any good. In a moment of
despair 1 tried the Cuticura Remedies Cuticura,
the great Skin Cure, and Cuticura Soap, an ex
quisite Skin Beaut ifler, externally, and Cuticura
Resolvent, the new Blood Purifier, internally; the
smau lumps (.as I can them) gradually disappeared,
and the la'rsre ones broke in about two weeks, dis
charging large quantities of matter, leaving two
slight Fears in my neck to-day to tell the story of
my suffering. My weight then was one hundred
and fifteen sickly pounds; my weight now is one
hundred amd sixty-one solid, healthy pounds, and
my height is only five feet five inches. In my trav
els I praised the Cuticura Remedies, North, Houth,
East and West. To Cuticura Remedies I owe
my health, my hanniness. and mv life. A
prominent New York druggist ashed me the other
aay, -uo you sim use tne cuticura temeaies;
you look to be in perfect health?" Mv reolv was.
I do, and shall always. I have never known what
sickness is since I commenced using the Cuticura
Kemeaies. someumes I am laugned at by prais
ing them to people not acauainted with their
merits, but sooner or later they will come to their
senses and believe the same as those that use
them, as dozens have whom I have told. May the
time come when there shall be a large Cutieura
SuppJy House in every city in the world, for the
benefit of humanity, where the Cuticura Reme

CRUCIBLE.
About twenty yean ago I discovered a little
sore-on my cheek, and the doctors pronounced
it cancer. I have tried a number of physicians,
but without receiving any permanent benefit.
Among the number were one or two specialists.
The medicine they applied was like fire to the
sore, causing intense pain. I saw a statement
In the papers telling what S. S. S. had done for
others similarly afflicted. I procured some at
once. Before I had used the second bottle the
neighbors could notice that my cancer was
healing up. My general health had been bad
for two or three years I had a hacking cough
and spit blood continually. I had a severe
pain in my breast. After taking six bottles of
S. S. S. my cough left me and I grew stouter
than. I had been for several years. My cancer
has healed over all but a little spot about the
size of a half dime, and It is rapidly disappear
ing. I would advise every one with cancer to
give S. S. S. a fair trial.
