S. Sanford, principal of the Stam ford High school, who was recently appoint ed instructor in the Hillhouse High school by the local authorities and accepted the place at a salary of $2,009, has finally con cluded to remain in Stamford as his salary there has been raised to $2,100. Ha now be lieves he can do more good in Stamford than' he can in New Haven. The members of the board of education here are impressed with the belief that he certainly can as ha seems to have his weather eye on the salary. - Mr. Sanford will probably never again have an opportunity to obtain employment in the New Haven schools.

THEIB 8ETEKTEENTH AITNVAI, Heetlas; of the the Womaa'i Enthusiastic mate and Ofl New Hans Branch of Board of missions An Gatberlne Reports Been Elected The Next meeting: to be Held in Water bury. Ladies from all- - parts of the State who are interested in mission work flocked into Cen ter church in this city yesterday morning and filled the seats. It was not a delegated meeting, but anyone not a member of the association was confronted with big signs on the doors of the church "Closed. "- It was the seventeenth annual meeting of the New Haven branch of the Woman's Board of Missions, and about five hundred Were present. The meeting was opened at 9:15 a.m. with devotional exercises. The report of Mrs. Home, the correspond ing secretary, was very encouraging. She said: "The New Haven branch has not quite reached its majority, but to-day we ac knowledge with grateful hearts the privilege of having added seventeen years of service and $157,127.84 to the grand twenty years' reoord of the Woman's Board of Missions. On the list of the last year's work and work ers are nine missionaries: Mrs. Edwards in South Africa, Mrs. Bond in Bulgaria, Miss Andrews in China, Mrs. Hume in Bombay, India, Mrs. DeForest in Japan, Miss Fens ham in Constantinople, Turkey, Miss Judson in Northern Japan, Miss Boot in Madura, In dia, Mrs. Eaton in Northern Mexico and Mies Ferris in Mexico a part of the year. In ad dition, we have had four assistant missionr aries and teaehers, eighty scholarships In twelve different seminaries or girls' boarding schools; in Constantinople, Mareovern, Har poot, Broosa and Talas, Turkey: in San Se bastian, Spain; Udupitty, Ceylon; Madura and Ahmednagar, India; Foochow, China; Natal Colony, South Africa, Kraabschitz, Austria." Miss Daggett, the recording secretary, also maae a report. The treasurer's report read by Miss Twin ing of this city showed that the year's re ceipts of the New Haven branch have been from the older societies $7,360; mission circles, $3,000; Sunday schools, $307, and other sources sufficient to make a total of 111,200. Miss Prudden's question box was interest ing. Miss Sarah J. Haines' missionary address was listened to with great attention, as she went 10 ibus tnree years ago as a mission ary and returned last fall on account of her health. Her description of the work there was greatly enjoyed. Mrs. Cady told of the progressive work aone in new uaven county. In the afternoon afissSterling. of Stratford, spoke of the work being done in Fairfield county. Daring the year, she said, the hands had increased by one society. She referred to Miss Ferris, who went to Mexico, but who had returned. '. Miss Judson has just gone to Japan. It was one thing to talk of strangers going into tne missionary Held, but another thing for those to go from our midst. She closed her report by saying: "The work press es more heavily upon ua all, as we have lost one glorious worker from our number. Mrs. -Palmer's dying words, 'So much-to be done,' echo in our ears. They seem to re proach us for the past. Let us take them into our heartB and make them the motto and inspiration of our future, The event of the afternoon was the mis sionary address by Miss West, who has been working in Turkey. She was not sorry to be in jNew Haven, nut would rather be working in Turkey where there is so much more need of her. She read Mother Sch ant ler's letter with its greeting to New Haven, whose ladies established the first school in Turkey fifty-eight years ago. Until then Tor kish women were never taught to read. All the nominally Christian races were crushed under the iron heel of the Turks, and low and ignorant were tbe men. In deeper degrada tion still were the women. Even after years of instruction this feeling is still strong, and so prevalent mac it creeps even into tne mis sionary schools and families. The Bible, in Armenian and Greek churches, is in a dead language, mapped in silk and velvet, and is shewn for worship with no more life than a mummy. No hope came from' it to the peo ple. Miss West went first to Harsovan, Turkey, under Mr. and Mrs. Leonard. To the school there she sent her pupil, Anna Felician. Miss west spoke of tbe coffee rooms in Smyrna, which are opened by the missionaries so as to get the Turks to go there and be taught. The same class of rooms are now being openea in uonstantinople. Tne women are now taught to read almost as much as the men. She said that the whole drift through that oountry was the doing away of Moelem- ism ana tne introduction of infidelity. The demand for bibles of late, howevsr, has in oreased. Miss Hinsdale gave a report of the work of the branch in Middlesex county, as Mrs. Me- uaie was not present. Mrs. McLaughlin's report xrom Xjitcnnela county was read m tne morning. Mrs. Taylor spoke of the Woman's Board of Mission. She urged the necessity of doing more and said that the amount given for missionaryprork was only $1 for 1,600 oeople. which waa a very small nmnortinn Mrs. Cady gave a very interesting address on tne wore m-epam ana Austria. It was decided to hold their next annual meeting at the Second church in Waterbur, Before the meeting was adjsurned the fol lowing officers were elected: President, Mrs. Burdett Hart.

John Bracken, a hack driver residing at 93 Elliott street, was driving on George street yesterday morning when he collided with a carriage containing the wife of Officer Orr and her little daughter and infant child. Mrs. Orr called out to him when she saw he was going to hit the carriage, but he paid no attention to her but drove recklessly ahead and collided with the carriage. The side of the carriage waa torn away, but the driver did not atop to ascertain the damage done. Mrs. Orr followed him to the New Haven House and reported the affair to Offioer Jack son. Bracken on promising to psy for the damage done was not arrested. Reveaare la Street. An amusing , incident happened in the western part of the city the other day. Two citizens have lived aide by side in harmony until recently. One owned a cat, which waa the pride of his eye. The other owned a goat and a dog, which was equally admired and oared for.. The dog made a predatory ex cursion into the next yard and killed the cat. When the owner of the cat knew this his feelings were so lacerated that nothing could smooth them but revenge. He therefore took a hatchet and went into his neighbor's yard to seek the offending and bloodthirsty dear. He did not find him, but he did find the goat wno waa peaceiuiiy eating tin cane, all un conscious of the past or the coming tragedy, The infuriated cat owner did not aee how he could get even without killing the goat, wnien ne oia by cnopping nis neaa oa. it was tough on the goat, who had not had the satisfaction of killing the cat. - The dog has not been beam irom. MEDICAI. MEN MEET. Thirty-Third Assail Meeting of tne Connecticut Eclectic Medical Asso' elation. At the Elliott House yesterday morning about forty members of the Connecticut Ec lectic Medical association met and held their thirty-third annual meeting. President J. D. S. Smith, of Bridgeport, presided, and delivered his annual address. Dr. William H. Whit ney, of Westfield, Mass., read a paper on "Tabes MenenteTica.". Other pap era were read by vr. Williams, of Bristol, on "Diph theria," and by Dr. S. B. Munfl on "Medical Statistics." Dr. Thomas Mulligan, of New Britain, waa elected a member. The election of officers resulted as follows: S. B. Mnnn, of . Waterbury , president: Wil liam H. Whitney, of . Westfield, Mass., viee president; Dr. Elizabeth Q.

N. Gallup and Theodore Brockway aa cen sors. The treasurer's report ahowed a balance of $12.81 on hand. In the afternoon a number of interesting papers were read by the members. THE BQ1BD Og H8ALTH. A" Number or Orders nasi for she Abalemeal or If nlaaateea. Ths Deadly Telford Parenest Dost. The board of health laat evening, Presi dent Brewer in the chair, passed a number of votes ordering -the abatement of nuisances. It appears that the Consolidated railroad company have determined to protect their passengers from the noisome exhalations ris ing alongside their tracks in this city. The company have desired formal orders to be issued prohibiting the draining of vaults into the ditches by the tracks and Townsend & Watroustifor the company, it is under stood, are ready to aid in the prosecution of persons who fail to obey the orders. One matter was brought before the board by Dr. John' P. Phillips. There is no sewer for the accommodation of the property Noe. 993 and 997 State street, formerly belonging to the Ullman estate, and recently sold by the executors to L. H. Freedman, who did not know that an order had been made for the abatement of a nuisance there. Dr. Winchell said this board oould not order a sewer. A motion by Mr. Grant to recom mend the construction of a sewer was adopted, President Brewer remarking that this board could give moral support to the recommendation when the matter should come before the committee on sewers. Health Officer Williston gave a detailed account of his investigation regarding pig pens and garbage nuisances at Beaver Pond and in the neighborhood of Crescent street. At Mr. Hall's there was no trouble. At the Burns place there were some offensive odors, and an order was made suited to the case. At one place there were fifteen to twenty tons of decomposing matter which belonged to F. S. Andrew. At Mr. Farnam's he could see no way in which improvements could be made, considering the nature of the material found there. On the north side of Pine rock the pie-pens were reasonably clean. No dead animals were found. The board voted to order F. S. Andrew to put things on his premises into a more sani tary condition. - The health officer reported that since his last report one patient had died from small pox and one was convalescent. . Me snouia have the carpets on the floor of the house burned. He had heard complaints of diph theria at tbe Webster school. JLast montn there were ten deaths from this disease. He had been told by complaining parties that the Webster school ought to be closed. The board considered the licensing of scavengers, who will get the licenses, as last year, except that Mr. Condon will get his only after satisfying the board that he will comply with the rules about disinfecting vaults. It was agreed to overlook the violation of law by Mrs. Sessler in digging a vault on Lawrence street. A permit was granted Amos Sawyer to make soap at so Silver street and to F. S. Andrew to si tughter on Long Wharf. On request of Felix Chillingworth it was voted to abolish the vaults at Nos. 80 and 82 Dwight street, in the rear of the church, where an addition is to be built. The open drainage from the old almshouse towards West river after passing through a short tun nel was referred to the standing committee to see what can be done for an abatement of the nuisance. Orders were made for abating nuisances at union street, owned by w. M. Geary, this case being referred to the oity attorney, 68 Fair street, Charles A. White agent, and action was taken regarding a new vault at 131 State street and a nuisance at 121 of the same street. The attention of the board was called to the health and life destroying dust of the Telford pavement top dressing, which gets lodgmens in the bronchial apparatus of many sufferers. President Brewer gave an account of the futile efforts of the board toward a proper sprinkling of streets where this dust works much harm. There appeared to he no remedy tor tne trouble. The report of tbe inspector showing a very unsanitary condition ot tne plumbing pipes at 109 York street and in other houses of Beers' block led to an order that the defec tive plumbing should be overhauled and made right. LE1VE1 HIS WIFE. A Tale tiradnate Obtains Moner Fraudulently and Skips Oat His Wire a Stratford a,adr. A Boston Herald dispatch from Kansas City says: ''About a year ago Walter Pela cour, a Yale graduate (of 1885), a member of leading Baltimore family, arrived at Wichita, Kansas, with his family. He had letters of introduction and was soon admit ted to the best society. His legal knowledge was such that he was elected professor in Garfield university. He thus acquired large business. Tuesday he left the city and Thursday his wife received a letter saying he would never return. He did a loan busi ness for eastern firms and got applicants to sign blank mortgages and , notes, claiming by this means he could get the money, and the mortgages would be fully written when the money arrived for the applicant. He would then go to the register of deeds' office. 1 a ll.i , .. -. ' uuu out an tne property ownea by tne appli cant, Insert it in the mortgage and get the money, out would not deliver it to tne appli cant. The whole amount fraudulently ob tained is very large." Delacour's wife is the daughter of X. J. Beardsley of Stratford. AT THE PRIMARIES. Republicans In Catena Last Night- Attorney Nlles Declines to Ran Again in the Fonrteanth Ward.

Driver Far or tine Went Chapel Street lilne Stops the Horses and saves Ilia Car From Destruction. Yesterday about 12 o'clock a pair of horses attached to one of the Mead's ice carts were standing on Chapel street near High. They became frightened at something and dashed up Chapel street at a rapid pace, dragging the heavy ice wagon after them and threat ening demoralization to carriages along the way. As it was they struck the delivery wagon of the Boston Backboard company, taking a wheel off. They then turned np West Chapel street. John Fay, a driver of one of the West Chapel street cars, was standing on the switch near Day street wait ing for the next car to pass, when he saw the team coming up the street. Realizing that the car was in imminent danger of being de molished he jumped from the car and ran forward, grasping the heads of the in furiated animals, and endeavored to bring them to a standstill. He did not fully suc ceed, as the heavy wagon struck the car, but at a greatly reduced rate of speed, and but little damage was done. The breaking of two or three panes of glass in the car was the extent of the damage. If it had not been for the presence of mind of the driver and his prompt action the car would proabbly have been badly damaged. Mr. Mead, who was following in the wake of the runaways, pre sented Fay with a new five dollar bill in ap preciation or nis services. Prohibition address This Evening. At 8 o'clock this evening Mr. William Thurston Btowd, of Yale university, will de liver an address at Prohibition Hall, 746 Chapel street. . The New Haven Prohibition! club invite the public to listen to this ad dress, which has been received with great fa vor when delivered elsewhere under the aus pices of the Women's Christian Temperance union. It deals with the question of pro hibition as one demanding candid and thoughtful consideration at the hands of the American people in the present crisis of our history. QUITE BADLY CUT. Italians Encase In a Quarrel About Their Rent. Libero Santagala, an Italian who lives at 200 Henry street, was cut" quite badly about the head last night by another Italian who goes by the name of Thomas Charlie. They have occupied the house at 200 Henry street together for some time, and Santagala paid -his share of the rent to 'Charlie.' He is soon to leave the present quarters, and in stead of paying Charlie the rent due paid the landlord. This aroused the wrath of Char lie, and last night they engaged in an alter cation in the matter and Charlie assaulted Santagala, who was in bed. He cut him quite badly about the head with a knife, in flicting one bad wound just below the cheek bone. After the affray Charlie fled and conld not be found. THE SELECTMEN MEET. Lire Jeopardized In Westville -Impor tant Legislation by the Police Board. At the meeting of the selectmen last even, ing Hobart L. Hotohkiss appeared in objec tion to a further continuance of the licenses to blast on West Rock heretofore granted to C. W. Blakealee & Son, C. K. Miller, James Lord, Cunningham & Son and Frederick Sohuldt. Mr. Hotchkiss -presented a lively picture of the risks to which human life and property on Mechanic street, Westville, were constantly exposed by reasol of pieces of rock flying through the air after the setting off of the mines in the blasting. Much property had been injured by the falliDg stones and children had narrowly escaped death from beiDg crushed under rocks falling on the ground directly under the places where blast ing is in progress. Women had been so frightened at -the bombardment from the stone quarries that they had been made ill, roofs of houses had been broken through and tbe whole village was constantly disturbed and kept in alarm by the detonation of the blasting. Aaron Moffatt, Henry Monk and Henry Van Hoosen, the" latter a resident for forty-one years on Mechanic street, made statements corroborative of those mads by . Mr. Hotchkiss. Stones from Smith's and Blakeslee's quarries had struck the storehouse or the tseecuer match factory. Town Agent Reynolds advised the quarry- men to noid a meeting and agree upon a course of action which would not be objec tionable to the complainants and then to re port to the selectmen. Complaint was made by Mr. Monk of the dumping on the Mechanic street sidewalk of refuse. The matter was referred to the com mittee on roads and bridges. selectmen Keyuolds and White were ap pointed a committee to report upon a notifi cation that the police board had made an order not to allow the lockup to be occupied by lodgers other than arrested persons after the 1st of Jane. In ditcussing the subject Town Agent Reynolds made the point that many poor persons while seeking from town to town for work were not to be classified as tramps, for such they were not, either in fact or within the meaning of the statute punish ing tramping. The police board in making their rule had assumed legislative functions and without apparently making provision for tne accommodation of those needing a night s sneiter.
