FEARFUL EXPLOSION.
A terrific blow-up.
What was the cause
Over tension too high pressure of steam.
Have you ever stopped to think that this ver
dict might be written as an epitaph on the tomb
stones of thousands upon thousands of our peo
ple? Over tension too high pressure of steam !
It not only fills thousands of graves annually,
but crowds the mad-houses and insane asylums
to overflowing ; makes our private dwellings
shelter the weakened nerves, the exhausted bod
ies, the ruined hopes, the blasted lives of young,
middle aged and old alike ; builds mammoth hos
pitals in which every ward teems with suffering
humanity hospitals which are monuments to
the wrecks of minds and Intellects, tbe shattered
brains and nerves, the ruined constitutions of
millions.
Do you have any doubt of this ?
Look to your own family, to your friends, to
yourself.
Remember your father who died of overwork
before he had reached middle age ; remember
your brother who from overtaxed strength grew
weak, pale, bloodless, enervated ; remember
your friend who, from brain tire and nerves
strained to dangerous tension, with nerveless
arm attempted suicide, and later became the in
mate of an insane asylum ; remember yourself
your oft recurring weak feelings, your tired,
trembling limbs, your dull, bad feeling head,
sleepless nights and restless, nervous days.
Recollect these things and understand that you
are running under too high a pressure. It may
be of business, physical overwork, pleasure or
dissipation, the result will be the same explo
sion of health, both nervous and physical, unless
you receive help from some source, and remem
ber that these symptoms and conditions are
doubly dangerous in the spring of the year.
To what source of help will you turn r
Naturally to that well known remedy which
you know will so surely and quickly cure nerv
ous disorders Dr. Grecue's Nervura. It is pro
nounced by all to be a most wonderful nerve
strengthener, a marvellous stomach remedy and
most perfect cure known for all those weakening
and debilitating nervous diseases which result
from mental or physical overwork, indiscretions
or dissipations. It is purely vegetable and harm
less, and is for sale by all ilr uggists at $100 per
bottle.
Glad Tidings of Health.
I suffered much paio, could not eat or sleep
well, and ft-'f miserable. I used Dr. Greene's
Nervura and t' .'k it but a few weeks before 1
was complet. cured. I advise all who are
complaining to use Dr. Greene's Nervura.

AN HISTORICAL SKETCH.
The Founding of the "North Pariah"
of New Haven, Conn.
Read before the New Haven Colony Historical
society March 80, 1891, by Sheldon B.
Thorpe..
The Northeast society or the North Par
ish had now become a reality. It was
self supporting from the first and never
asked a penny of assistance
from the general assembly or the
abatement of a farthing of it rates.
Daring the building of the meeting house,
which consumed within a fraction of five
years' time, religious service was held
either at the honse of Ebenezer Blakeslee
or of Joseph Ives. The records name the
former; Dr. Trnmbnll says the latter. The
probability Is both are right. At the for
mation of the society Mr. Blakeslee offered
his house, as has been said. They voted
to accept the same "till ye major part of
ye society shall see cause to lay it aside,"
indicating, perhaps, by these words that a
minority preferred Mr. Ives' house, and to
which possibly in the interests of peace
tney later went.
THE PASTOR'S HOUSE.
At the same time the meeting honse was
going up, the Rev. Mr. Wetmore was also
engaged in building a home for himself.
He located upon the south side of south
end of "the market place." It does not
seem that ms society, as such, lent mm
any aid. From the appearance of the
dwelling, which stood until the year 1803,
Mr. Wetmore must have been possessed of
means beyond tue meagre salary paid mm
In its day it was the most pretentious
dwelling in the parish. At its destruction
the frame of oak was found hard as iron
and sound as when erected.
UNCERTAIN IN HIS ORTHODOXY.
Scarcely was the Bey. Mr. Wetmore well
settled in his pulpit and had preached a
six months from it ere the quick ear of
Nathaniel Yale detected an uncertain ring
to the divine's orthodoxy.
He was on his feet in an instant. A re
monstrance was prepared by the church
and handed to Mr. Wetmore. . This paper
he treated"contemptuously. Yale scented
danger and was not mistaken. Wetmore
and his six associates had already addressed
tne autnonties or x ale college in that re
markable document of September 13, 1722,
avowing their sympathy with the Episco
pal belief. Consternation spread through
the parish. No man should utter such
sentiments and again face a New Haven
born congregation.
The sturdy old Puritan boldly came to
the fore front and gave him battle. Said
Yale among other things (and it shows the
grit and the grip of 1722).
" we did count that we had reason to fear
that our foundation would be greatly shaken,
if not thrown down. We did count that we had
reason to fear that we might be snared and taken
in waves that was contrary to our miuds and
Reverend Sir wo- have this further to say, that
whon the news of our dissatisfaction was made
known to yourself you cast considerable reflec
tion in our esteem, on those that manifested
itieir aissat istaction, Dy calling them a mob, a
riot and a disorder etc.
We do not esteem ourselves to desire Hneh re.
flections from yourself, but do count we have
just grounuB to oe uissatisnea etc."
HE WAS DISMISSED HIS SUCCESSOR.
There was no defense Wetmore was
dismissed the walls of Zion remained in
tact and Yale preserved for himself and
his associates the old faith of their fathers
they had sworn to maintain.
Following Mr. Wetmore came the Rev.
Issac Stiles, a unlive of Windsor. Conn..
and a graduate of Yale college in 1722. He
was ori.'inc! over tne little church No
vember Jl . 17 4.
In his pastorate were really laid the
rounaatiou-5 or tne tuture town. Mr. Wet
more's ca. ; had been too brief and too
busy to fc . jlateany plan for the exten
sion of j parish. Mr. Stiles's oeoole
bought fo him the parsonage vacated by
his predee.-;sor. Here he installed Kezia
Taylor of Westfield, Mass., as his wife and
its mistress. Here .Ezra Stiles's most
noted of all North Naven born boyo was
born, played on the green, attended school
and finally went away to earn those im
perishable honors Yale college assisted to
confer upon him.
There is neither space nor time to enter
into an extended notice of Mr. Stiles.
Headers of ecclesiastical history are con
versant with his connection with "the
Euggles affair" in the Guilford church,
witn "tne itouuins episode" in the Bran
ford church, and lastlv with that ereat ex
hibition of theological fireworks and srrank.
"the Dana matter" in the Wallingford
cnuren.
The first ten years of Mr. Stiles' pastor
ate appear to have been spent quietly. It
was not "good form" in that day for a
young divine to be over forward either
with his older brethren of the cloth or his
parishioners. Stiles apparently was con
tent to Btudy the situation and get accli
mated witn nis congregation. This he did
so quietly that before his people knew it
tney had taiten upon tnemselves new bur
dens and fresh zeal wherewith to carry
tnem. rew mgnways were laid out.
bridges were built, commons cleared and
fenced, schools set up, justices of peace
nominated and all the machinery of an in-
cipieuc tuwu set m motion.
THE ERECTION OF THE SECOND CHURCH
EDIFICE.
Not the least of the important events in
Mr. Stiles' pastorate was the bnilding of
the second meeting house, 1739-1741.
Though but twenty years had elapsed since
the occupation of the fiist place of wor
ship the parish had outgrown the latter.
The new building was 65 feet by 40 feet,
and like its predecessor, entirely devoid of
external ornamentation. A steeple was
added in 1799. It stood near the middle
of the green and when completed was ful
ly abreast of the times in interior furnish
ings. Its handsone pulpit great sound
ing board, balustraded pews, ample gal
leries and tall steeple made it second to no
country meeting house in the state. It
stood until 1835.
There was no lack of duties imposed
upon the young pastor. The wonder
grows when those inordinately long ser
mons, accustomed to be delivered, were ever
written. Besides, the minister not only
was expected to be the spiritual euide of
the people, but their school board and
civil authority in many cases.
It is to be said ot him that he was full
of resources; that he met all the emergen
cies of church and state fearlessly; that he
witnessed the growth of the parish from
forty families in 1720 to 175 in his time;
that he died in the faith May 14, 1760; and
that among the foremost residents in the
town to-day are the descendants of his
family.
Coming back for a moment to Nathaniel
Yale, we find Mr. Stiles was secured large
ly through his exertions.
This act was apparently the last public
service rendered by this now aged servant
of God, for from this time all mention of
him ceases. In the founding of the so
ciety, in the calling of Mr. Wetmore, in
the erection of the first meeting house, in
every movement connected with the best
interests of the parish we trace the hand
of Nathaniel Yale. Nor were his services
unsought in the political arena.- Besides
holding minor town offices innumerable
and assisting on committees of one nature
and another in all parts of the colony, he
was nine thneo elected deputy from New
Haven to tue general assembly in the
years ITU, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 22 and
23.
Octobex !, 1730, he passed from the
church n- -a at to the church triumphant.
His mem . ial is his steadfastness; there
is no oth; of him. His name does not
even appear for some strange reason on
the church catalogue of his generation.
One might have imagined he would have
preferred burial in his own parish, but
perhaps the place of his birth had always
strong attractions for him, for his remains
were laid in the common place of sepul
ture on New Haven Green. Seventy
years afterwards, the stone that marked
his resting place, with others was removed
to the present Grove street cemetery
Thus his dust returned to the city of his
boyhood, but his memory remains for
ever blessed in the little country parish
where he gave the best part of his life.
May the trump of God wake him at the
general resurrection to the high reward he
so richly earned.
EBENEZER BLAKESLEE.
Contemporary with Nathaniel Yale was
JUbenezer ma&eslee. lie was ot staunch
English stock. His father,Samuel, landed in
Boston about 1636. Later he emigrated to
New Haven-and first appears as the occu
pant of a seat in the meeting house there
in 1646. He died in 1673. At this time
or thereabouts Ebenezer, his son, removed
to North Parish. He located north of the
"market place" and not far from the resi
dence of the speaker. That he was a godly
man is inferred from the willingness with
which he opened his dwelling in the in
terests of the new society. He was also
one of the building committee -of the first
meeting house.

The Behearsal for This Attraction
Soon to. Begin.
Spring is unusually a dull season, so
cially, but that of 1891 bids fair to be a
notable exception.
Easter week opened with brilliant at
tractions, dramatic, musical and social,
whioh will culminate in the long-antioi-pated
presentation of "Antigone" this
evening and Saturday afternoon. No
sooner will the all-absorbing Greek play
beoome a thing of the past than rehearsals
for "The Fashing of Venice" begin, All
the ladies who have kindly consented to
assist in this production are sure of a good
time once a week and also have the ad
vantage of instruction from the most cele
brated and high-priced dancing master in
this or any other country, for no
teacher ranks as high or charges so enorm
ously for his lessons as Carl Marwig. The
"United Workers," with commendable
zeal have again secured Marwig to give an
entertainment for their benefit. "The
National Dances" of two years ago was a
revelation to tne whole community, out
"The Fashine of Venice" is far more
beautiful and will be double the expense
to the society whioh has undertaken it.
The exquisite minuet now on the stage
at Daly's in "School for Scandal" will be
reproduced here. Included in tne beauti
ful series of tableaux will be a Grecian
group of tall and graceful women, a Vene
tian group with boatmen in gondolas for
their cavaliers, wierd gypsies, picturesque
Normandy maidens, flowers and bees rep

and beauty.
Professor Marwig is an artist and genius.

WEDDED YESTERDAY.
A Qnlet Weddlns at St. Mary's Church
A quiet but very pretty wedding oc
curred at St. Mary's church yesterday af

den. Konold & Son, coal dealers, secured
judgment yesterday in two oases that were
tried before Justice James P. Bree. The
first was against Emil Vetter, for $13.89,
and the other against Louis Oaks and wife
for $23.63. Attorney C. H. Hay den ap
peared for the plaintiff.
Edward L. Perry, a painter at 119 Con
gress avenue,has brought an action for re
plevin against John L. Palmer of Hamden
to recover a horse, wagon and harness.
The suit will be tried before Justice Hall.
Henry Bubun is suing Max Caplan for
$700 damages for an alleged breach of con
tract. The case is being tried in the com
mon pleas court before Judge Deming.
Bubnn claimed that he entered upon a
contract with Caplan, whereby he should
get half of the profits in their business
and the privilege of $20 a month out of
the profits in consideration that he should
be general manager of the business and do
the upholstery work for one year. After
working a few months for Mr. Caplan he
was summarily discharged.
The attorneys for the plaintiff in the
Broschart-Tuttle case yesterday made ap
plication to Judge Thayer for an extra
amount of costs. This Btep would be in
accordance with a statute which provides
that in extraordinary cases in taxing the
damages the judge may award an extra
amount, the sum not to exceed $100. The
judge held the matter under advisement
in order to ascertain what the costs in the
case will amount to.
Judge Studley presided at the session of
the city court yesterday and it is probable
that either he or Judge Deming will con
tinue to do so for the next week, while
Judge Pickett is taking a much needed
vacation.

. ham's View on the Situation
Notes. -There
will undoubtedly be several im
portant changes made in the New Haven
team before the " championship season
opens., if ' ' "
"Connie" Doyle has not signed a con
tract as jet and possibly may not, ' as he
and Manager Bnmham cannot agree upon
terms. Burnham says that if Doyle does
not sign, he can and will secure a man for
the position who is fully as good, several
of whom he has now under consideration.
For first base Burnham has three men
under consideration, two of whom are:
"Syd" Farrar of Philadelphia and "Wally"
Andrews of Omaha. He favors Andrews,
as he considers Farrar's terms to exorbi
tant. Burnham made a statement last night to
the effect that in all probability Andrews
would be signed.
Manager Selee of Boston in a letter to
Mr. Burnham says that Andrews is one of
the greatest first basemen in the country,
an excellent base runner, a heavy hitter
and a dead sure catcher at first base.catch
ing a ball with either hand equally well.
For the outfield he as the terms of
"Joe" Sommers of last year's Baltimores,
and Mansell of Newark under considera
tion. Sommers was second in the Atlan
tic league last season in fielding with an
average of .956 and first in batting, his
average being .347. Mansell was also sec
ond in fielding and had an average of .241
in batting. Either of these two men would
make a valuable acquisition to the team,
and would give New Haven the strongest
outfield in the league. "Wally" Andrews
played great ball for Omaha last season,
having a batting average of .279, made in
eighty-five games, and a fielding average
of .977, fourth in the Western league.
Speaking of Newark's failure to stay in
the International Manager Burnham says:
"It doesn't bother me very much as we
shall probably take in Harrisburg imme
diately. If "not, we can play with seven
clubs. The league will be as strong as
ever and New Haven will have a strong
team notwithstanding her many trials and
tribulations." Manager Burnham further
said: "I have not as yet been advised
officially of Newark's withdrawal, but it is
no more than I expected. Since Newark's
admittance to the league no efforts
have been made by the Newark
management to select a team,
Mr. Shoemaker, who has been the
mainstay of the team, withdrawing almost
entirely. Its whole attitude has been
lukewarm, and I have known for some
time that the club's withdrawal was only a
matter of time, the only thing that has
worried us being that the club would hang
on until the season had advanced, the
schedule perfected and all arrangements
made, when it would drop and compel us
to make other arrangements and interfere
with the series of games. As it is now,
we shall have no trouble and will fill New
ark's place at once. A meeting of the
league will be held in Albany next Mon
day, when all pending matters of the
league will be settled. I do not know,
but in all probability the Harrisburg,
Penn., team will be admitted in Newark's
place. This club has been anxious to
come in, and I do not doubt but that it
will prove as drawing a card as .Newark.
So far as the New Haven team is con
cerned, it will be a strong one if the ne
gotiations for players now under way are
completed. I hope to be able to put up a
good strong team against x ale on Satur
day." In conclusion Manager Barnham said:
"You can rest assured that this city will
have base ball this season, that the present
International league will be kept up by
the admission of another city, and that the
New Haven team will be as strong or
stronger than any in the league. All this
cannot be accomplished in a day, but the
opening of the championship season April
25 will find us in good condition and in a
position to cope with any of the clubs in
the league.

Judge Thompson's Bill for One
month's Salary Other Bills Ap
proved. -.
Among the bills for the month of March
which came np last evening for the ap
proval of the board of finance was that of
Judge Thompson, for $75, a month's sal
ary. The bill was tabled in order to as
certain whether it ought to be paid, seeing
that the judge has left the state and taken
np his residence in another.
The MoEvoy bill for $100 was also tabled
because there was not a full board present,
Alderman Cunningham said that at the
next meeting he would make a motion to
reconsider the action taken . at a former
meeting to the effect that no action would
be taken on this bill unless every member
were present.
A Mr. Bussman appeared before the
board in the interest ot a Herman
semi-weeklv newspaper called "The Con
necticut Free Press." He desired the
board to recommend that city advertising
be inserted in that paper. He affirmed
that its circulation was twice that of any
two other local German papers. The
board suggested that he present his peti
tion to the court of common council.
The following bills for the month of
March were approved:

Sale of Dwight Street Property Yes
terday. Yesterday Mr. T. P. Merwin sold the
Dwight street property which has been ad
vertised in the Courier for some time past
to Mr. Charles E. P. Sanford of this city,
who will soon occupy it as his family resi
dence. The price paid was about $15,000.
This property is well known, having been
the residence of the late Smith Merwin,
who built the house and resided there un
til his death eighteen years ago, his widow
continuing to occupy it until her death in
March last year. It is one of the most de
sirable pieces of property on this pleasant
thoroughfare. The lot is 106 feet front

other dam in the town of Bethany, to form
another reservoir, which will be on the
west bank of West river, near the Wood

The new reservoir will have a capacity of
about 160,000,000 gallons and will cost

The Opening Higher Improvements
of a Fractional Nature at the Open

New York, April 2.
Railroad bonds were doH and without marked
tendency in either direction, but Louisville, New
Albany and Chicago consols were weak and re
tiring. Other changes among active issues weie
in all cases insignificant. The trading reached
$185,000, without special animation anywhere in
me use anu wim a largrer numoer oc issues trad
ed in than for tbe last few days.
Stocks opened higher and the market disnlav-
ing a firm undertone, further improvements of a
iruuuuuui nature was uioue m tne early trauing.
The apathy of speculators, however, soon be
came apparent in the dwindling transactions
ana tne most intense dullness marked the trad
ing after the first hour with a slight yielding In
quotations. The bears in the afternoon attack
ed the list on the assumption that the hardening
tendency in exchange meant further exports of
goia on saturaay, wnue assertions tnat tne gov
ernor of Nebrasl-A had signed the maximum
t reight and that the Italian minister would sail
on Saturday were used with effect. 8t. Paul,
Rock Island and Burlington yielded nearly one
per cent., but other losses were insignificant.
