matters.
Habtfobd, April 5, 1887.
Special to the Journal and Courier. 1
There were four important committee
meetings in progress to-day. The prolonged
hearing on the petition for free bridges in
Hartford oounty was resumed in the Senate
chamber this afternoon. In the hall of the
Honse the committee on new counties and
oonnty seats xesnmed the hearing of witness
es in favor of making Winchester and New
Milford the shire towns of Litchfield county.
The Henry L. Goodwin memorial hearing is
another whish attracted general interest
about the Capitol. But what seemed to be
the all absorbing topic this afternoon was the
hearing before the agricultural committee re
garding the Storrs Agricultural school appro
priation. The hearing was in relation to the
appropriation of $39,000 for the school
which is now located in the town of Mans
field and recommending the removal of
the school to Wallingford. The hearing was
largely attended.
New Haveners will remember the body of so
termed "Communists" which located at Wal
lingford some ten or twelve years ago. In
1881 they removed to New York State after
having built large and commodions build
ings accommodating one hundred persons,
When the petition for an appropriation of
$39,000 was presented to the legislature,
Representative Kendrick, of Wallingford, at
once saw that it would be a good
thing for his town if the school was located
at the "Community" plaoe. A boom was at
once begun which it is thought will prove
successful. At a meeting held in Walling
ford last Saturday a committee of ten was
appointed to use all honorable means to se
cure the location of the school in that town.
At the hearing this afternoon Judge F. C.
Bartholomew, chairman of this committee,
introduced the subject. Attorney H. F.
Hall, of Wallingford, was the first person
heard. He spoke of the great desirability
and the excellent accommodation that would
be furnished by the new location. "There
are 850 acres of land in the site," said he.
In the main meadow and pasture there are
thirty-three acres. Twenty-five acres river
meadow. In the orchards there are: Four
acres pear, two and one-half acres quinces
and fifteen apple. East of the house there
are twenty-five acres. There are twenty acres
woodland, ten acres additional pasture land,
six acres of ploughed land and four acres of
lawn. In the main building, which was
bnilt in 1871, there are thirty-nine sleeping
rooms and dining rooms, halls,eto. There are
many outbuildings, which are in excellent
condition, as well as the house. There are
three large barns. There are also two dwell
ing houses on the property which are rented
and bring $12 per month at the present
time. 1 would advise the committee to visit
the place and they can see that I am not
ovenating its many good and desirable
points. 1 have ascertained that tne proper
ty can be purchased for $20,000."
I wisn l naa xzu.uuu to invest," said a
Hartford man who seemed surprised at the
low figure, "and I'd go down to Wallingford
and get ahead of the State."
U. i. V. f owler, a gradnate of the snet-
field Scientific school, presented a map for
examination of Wallingford, showing the
location of the property, tie Btrongly advo
cated the removal of the school to Walling
ford. Representative Kendnck, who has taken
such an active interest in the matter, was the
next and best speaker of the hearing; his
remarks were concise, interesting and to the
point. He spoke of the accessibility to the
proposed location and the general good re
sults which would certainly be derived. "It
is abont time," said he, "that the farmers of
this State bad something that is not barren
and inaccessible."
Secretary of State L. M. Hubbard
spoke in favor, as well as a Mr.
Cook, a prominent agriculturist
of Wallingford. A very strong argument
was made iu favor of it by Secretary Hub
bard. It was shown that there was no desire
to change the name of the school or oust any
of the present officers. The opposition was
principally trom tnose connected with the
school and the representatives from that sec
tion who would naturally oppose any re
moval. The railroad committee were to hold hear
ings on two subjects to day. The first was
to be the Goodwin memorial, but as the dav
was set down for the arguments the commit-
ee refused to hear the statements that Mr.
Goodwin had prepared, in which he said he
had discovered a discrepancy in the state
ment of the Consolidated road's report for
last year of the income of the sinking fund
amounting to $12,000. C. B. Davis
of the committee figured on the
report and found that there was a
question about the fiscal year in which the
lleged discrepencv occurred. Mr. uoodwm
persisted that certain witnesses should be
called, but Senator Graham, chairman of the
committee, refused to hear anything but ar
guments. Ex-Judge Sill, covusel for Mr.
Goodwin, refused to argue tne matter, and
Mr. Robinson didn't care to so the case
ended.
The bills relative to the sale of the Derby
railroad were next called np by Chairman
Graham. There were three bills included in
the call. The original bill provides that no
sale of the road shall be valid unless propo
sals for it shall be filed thirty days in ad
vance with the city treasurer, and that these
proposals shall be prepared for advertise
ments, and so on, by a special committee ap
pointed by the legislature for the purpose,
and that the purchaser shall abolish the
grade crossing at Meadow street inside
of five years. Joel A. Sperry, presi
dent of the Derby, was the first to
testify. "If you abolish the grade crossing
at Meadow street," said Mr. Sperry, "you out
the Derby off from tidewater. It wonld be a
serious drawback to the best interests of the
road. The road turns 20,000 tons of freight
per vear over to the steamboat companies.
and this cutting ns off from the docks would
be a serious loss, indeed. If the road is to be
sold at all, why not do it at public auction to
the hiebest bidder? 1 nave made an otter oi
$250,900 for the road, and other stockholders
are interested. If my offer is accepted 1
would Bell it back to the stockholders pro
rata, according to the stock." C. T. Drisooll
opposed the bill and thought the city had no
need for a conservator, it would be unneces
sary interference on the part . of the State.
Morris F. Tyler also opposed.
Lawyer John (J. Uallag&er, wno appeared
for his father in support of the substitute
bill, made an interesting statement concern
ing tne history or tne Jjerby road
tie said that when tne road was not
a paying investment there was no
talk of selling; bnt just as soon as it be
gan to pay all sorts of offers were
made for it. The lowest is the ma of X173.UUU
by the rlonsa tonic V alley company a paper
railroad and what tne citizens of JNew Ha
ven ask is to be protected from this lowest
bidder for a piece of solvent property. If it
is to be sold, the citizens ask that it be sold
to the highest bidder for cash. The counsel
also said that to sell it in any othet way
would be in violation of that provision of
the constitntion which forbids
municipality from making a gift to
railroad corporation. The market value of
the road. Mr. Uallaguer said, was X40U,uuu,
and if the city is willing to sell it for a third
of that the city should have a conservator
put over it. The hearing was adjourned to
Thursdav at 1:30 P. m.
In the Senate to-day the resolution that no
reports from committees be received after
April 5 was rejected in concurrence.
Concurred in Honse amendment
to Senate resolution appropriating $30,000
for additional cottage buildings at tne state
Reform school and the resolution was finally
passed as amended. Also concurred in
House amendment to the bill making an ap
propriation for the Industrial ohool for
Girls. Senator Hill explained at some
length the adverse report received from the
Honse on the bill repealing the right given a
year ago to a Mr. Crawford to build a sea
wall in Stamford. Senator Walsh said that
over 1.600 persons had oetitiened for the re
peal, and he discussed the several olaims
that they bad made, but added that
he could not be satisfied that any of them
were well founded. The Senate concurred
with the House In giving the petitioners
leave to withdraw. A communication was
received from Governor Lounsbury trans
mitting ths resignation of Clarence L. Reed
who was during tne present session appoint
ed judge oi tne borough court or Stamford,
The resignation was accepted. Various mat
ters from the House were rejected or oalen
dared in concurrence. Concurred in recom
mitting bill regarding sals of liquor within
half a mile of agricultural fairs. When the
calendar was taken up the Mercantile Safe
Deposit company of New Haven was
incorporated and several minor mat
ters were passed. The resolution
affirming the agreement between
i the State and Yale college as to the nse by
the Sheffield school of the agricultural fond
received by the State - from Congress was
next considered. Senator Walsh ex
plained that Tale college had clone
everything agreed upon in the oontract
as to the expenditure or the tnnds. senator
Kirkham argued that ninety out of every one
hundred families do not believe that the
money is being used as required for the ben
efit of agriculture and the mechanical arts.
He therefore objected to placing tne pending
resolution en record, to forestall action by
the legislature. The aet of Congress names
agriculture nrst, but agriculture receives lit
tle or no benefit from the fund. In twenty
four years only eight, certainly not over
twelve, have taken the course of agriculture.
There ir something wrong when no one is to
day taking this course; all taking the me
chanical course. The matter was tabled on
suggestion of Senator Stanb. The bill
regulating the construction of bridges
over or under the railroad tracks
next cams no. An amendment was adopted
that when a bridge goes over the tracks the
railroad commissioners shall prescribe the
leneth of the bridge and fix the land damage.
The bill was passed. Resolutions wero
passed approving the renominations of
the directors of ths State prison made by the
Governor last week; also of the members of
the State board of agriculture.
In the House the committee on humane
institutions made a favorable report on a
substitute bill providing for the commitment
of children to county homes. Several other
committee reports were received. The bill
limiting costs in civil actions for attachment
of wages to $2 occasioned a lively debate
when the calendar was reached. Mr. An
drews, of Orange, thought it was
absurd to expect a justice to try a
case for fifty cents. Lawyers were
paid $1 for their services for conducting
a contested election case, ana a iriai just
ice ought to get at least $2 for his services.
Mr. Ford, of Washington, offered an amend
ment providing that justices should be enti
tled to recover their legal fees. The amend
ment was adopted. At the end of the dis
cussion, lasting forty-five minutes, the whole
matter was tabled on motion of Mr. Barbour
of Meriden. The resolution incorporating
f the New Haven Electrio Light company was
passed, as well as several minor matter.
LEGISLATIVE NOTZ8.
The humane institutions committee has
recommended that the allowance for the
board of boys in the State Reform school be
increased from $2.25 to $2.50 per week. This
increases the expense of the institution about
$5,000 per annum, but will obviate the ne
oessity of the managers calling for special ap
propriations for repairs, etc., the aggr gated
board money at $2.50 being sufficient to pay
cost of ii aintenance, salaries, repairs and
other expenses.
The Housatonic railway company have
called in all passes to the members or the
General Assembly.
Senator Gallagher's tariff resolution will
be the order of the day for to morrow ( W ed
nesday) morning in the Senate.
Mr. Kendrick, the genial representative
trom Wallingford, was called to the chair of
the House early in the morning's session
and conducted the business in his able and
skillful manner. He showed much familiari
ty with the parliamentary code.

many New members.
Nathan Hale camp, S. of V., held their
regular meeting last evening and mustered

The "Royal Road" to German.
Prof. Colby, the popular natural method
German teacher, is meeting with wonderful
success here. He opened his second term
for beginners yesterday and already has fifty
names. No doubt but what many others
will join to day, as he cordially invites the
public to visit the classes at 9:30 a. m., 4:30
or 7:30 p. m. It is certainly a very fascinat
ing way to learn German, and is strongly en
dowed by many of the best known citizens
of this city.
Death or Airs. Sarah. Jay ne.
Mrs. Sarah Jayne, mother of Mrs. John
E. Skinner and Mrs. Sadie Baldwin, of this

deceased had been afflicted with rheumatism
for several years past, and during all that
time she had endured her sufferings patient
ly and with great fortitude. She was a true
Christian lady and was well known both in
this' city and Bridgeport. For eight or nine
years past the deceased had been nnable to
gaze upon the kind and sympathizing friends
around hsr, for she was blind. At one time
she wrote stories for the New York papers,
She was sixty-three years old, and leaver six
daughters and one son to mourn her loss. She
will be laid at rest in her native village to
morrow afternoon.

A GENEROUS DONATION.
The Fair Haven and Weatvllle Horse
Railroad Company Will Give Two
Hundred and Fifty Dollars to the
Rase Ball Association A Meeting
To-Day to Fully Decide on Location
or the Grounds Items or Interest
Concerning Base Ball.
At a meeting of the directors of the Fair
Haven and Westville horse railroad company
held yesterday afternoon it was decided to
donate two hundred and fifty dollars toward
the expense of fitting np the grounds of the
new base ball association recently formed in
this oity. The company say that the loca
tion of the ball grounds is a block or more
from the horse car line and that a majority
of the attendants will be conveyed to and fro
by coaches and busses that will drive to the
entrance-.. Considering the recent great ex
pense iO the company in laying double tracks
ani the largely daily increased expenses
without a corresponding increase of business
the donation is a reasonable one. Should the
enterprise of the base ball company prove
successful and other conditions warrant it lc
is not unlikely that ths railroad company
will lend its assistance further.
George, the new pitcherof the New Torks,
did not snow up well Monday in tne exhi
bition game between E wing's and Ward's
teams, lie pitched wildly and fourteen base
hits were made off him by his sending
the batsmen to bases on called balls. Roach
another new pitcher, pitched a steady game,
bnt was pounded all over tne held.
The new rules of playing base ball are giv
ing much dissatisfaction. The five balls and
four strikes seem so far to annoy the audi
ences. Buffington and Gunning, the Boston bat
tery, have been sold to the Philadelphias for
$500. Buffington objects to going, but will
have to co or not play ball at all.
New Haven people should not be deceived
by the game the Bridgeports played here Sat
urday. The team did remarkably well in
holding the Yale team down as they did, as
it was their first game, while the Yale team
had been in practice all winter.
The Sporting Times is a new paper recent
ly started in New York by J. J. Kennedy,
sporting editor of the Times, and Jr. J. Don
ahne, sporting editor of the World. They
are young men of unusual ability and on all
things relating to sporting events their au
thority is unquestioned. They are enter
prising and are getting out the best sporting
paper in tne country.
Paul Hines, the great center fielder of the
Washingtons, has refused to sign with that
ciud unless ne gets $a,ouu or $l,uuo in ad
vance. Kelly, who was released by Chicago to
.Boston for $10,000, has been appointed cap
tain of the bean eating nine.
The Boston Herald of Monday said: "It
looks as if Stagg of the Yales wonld have a
picnic with college batsmen this season."
"Mickey" Welch has been engaged by the
Columbia college club to coach tne students
in base ball. The outside venture will net
him $125 a month.

You semember the story of the guest who was
eating more Butter than biscuit, while the landlady
looked on and fidgeted and hinted, until she finally
said:
"Do you know that Butter cost me 25c a pound at

Tne hungry guest reached out and took what
there was left.
"Well," he drawled approvingly and reassuring
ly "good butter like this is worth it."
