HAVEN MORNING JOURNAL AND COURIER, THE BOXING SHOW TO-NIGHT. A Good Exhibition of Scientific Work is Exected. . To-night the much talked of boxing carnival, given under the auspices of the Franklin Athletic club, will be held at the Hyperion theater. Last night a large force of men were engaged in putting the ring side seats in position, and erecting the ring. The managers, boxers, trainers and backers of all the participants have arrived hero, Martin Flaherty, who is to .meet Tommy Shor tell, is in the pink of condition, and is willing to waser his all that he will win the decision. 'When he arrived here he va3 accom panied by the game little boxer Aus tin Rice, of New London, and Fred Mc Gin, both of whom will bei his corner during his bout. Tommy Shorten, like Flaherty, is also in the best of condi tion and is willing to make the fight of his life. Matty Matthews, who has been training him, states that Shorten will put up a splendid exhibition, and if Flaherty wants the decision he will have to work for it very hard. Mat thews and Tommy West of New York will act as his seconds. Shorten will be cheered to victory by a big delega tion of New York sports. The pro gramme will be opened by Sammy Myers and Jack Hannlgan, who meet for ten rounds at 110 pounds. Both boys are looking for the decision, and will nut up a clever exhibition. Myers Is well known here and all through the Naugntuck valley, and a large num ber of Waterbury people will be pres ent to cheer him on.

It is the desire of Matchmaker "Al" Woods of the Franklin Athletic club to give the peo ple of New Haven good, clean boxing and if the bouts to-night are a success it is his intention to give boxing shows at least once a month. Milford, Dec. 6. Following is a list of advertised letters remaining in the Mil ford postoffice December 6: Miss Olive E. Mix and Miss L. E. Wells. The members of St. Peter's church have decided to erect a parish house at a cost of $2,100. Work will be com menced to-morrow. D. E. Smith & Co. has the contract and is to finish the building by April 1. Five large pine trees will be removed, as the building is to be erected on the north side of the church. Mrs. E. P. Smith is making extensive improvements about the old Miles prop erty, adjoining her residence, which she recently purchased. The roadway, which has always been very narrow near this property, has been widened and otherwise improved, and in addi tion to this an excellent concrete walk is being laid by Contractor Elbert N. Clark. The appropriation for concrete walks made at the town meeting in Oc tober will not be encroached upon, Mrs. Smith bearing all expenses. Ladies' night at the Milford WheeJ club will occur on Friday evening, De cember 10. The lady members will offer an unusually fine programme for that night.

It seems that therp Ir snmo nmonoot of a change in the Plans wherebv tVm celebration of the fiftieth anniversary or the organization of the New York East conference of the Methodist Epis copal church was to have been held in the First M. E. church in Middletown, Conn. This change is due to the fact that Rev. Dr. Johnson, pastor of this church, was also pastor of St. John's church in Brooklyn, in which last year's conference was held, and it is not con sidered fair to ask the same clergyman to entertain for two years in succession three hundred or four hundred men for a week.

The fish dealers and vesesl owners of this city put into effect their new policy of hand ling at this port all fresh fish caught by Gloucester vessels, this morning. Many of the vessels in port displayed flags .and the city in general took upon itself a holiday appearance. The ves sels began to unload their cargoes ear ly in the forenoon and the crow.d of several hundred assembled at the Ben jamin Low wharf where most of the business was done.

Glouces ter will celebrate to-night on an elabo rate scale. The celebration will be al together informal and will consist of a torchlight procession, band concerts and fireworks. Boston, Dec. 0 At T wharf to-day the fleet of Gloucester vessels compris ed the Lottie Gardner, High Ram Lowell and James Steele. It was stat ed among dealers on the wharf this morning that it was possible that the supply might run a little short in this city for a few weeks, but they felt sure that (he course of events would regu late the supply and demand without any increase in the cost of fish to the consumers. ' BOYS STONED THE TRAIN. One Seven Years Old and One Six Lec tured at Grand Avenue Police Sta tion. It -was reported to the police of the Grand avenue station yesterday after noon that a passenger train had been Etoned from what is known as the East street lot, near the East street railroad bridge. It was reported that the stone crashed through a car win dow. Sergeant Hayes , sent Officer Wrinn out to Investigate. The officer found two boys on the East street lot, wi o, on b ing questioned, admitted that they had thrown stones at a train. They were taken to the police station, where they gave the names of John McGlnty, seven years old. of 26 Milt River street, and John Malone, six years old, who lives at the corver of Mill River and Humpl-rey streets.. The little fellows very innocently told of throwing stones at the train, and evidently had no idea that they had done anything wrong. Sergeant Hayes talked to them and ex plained that trey"'.' must, not throw stones at the trains. Both boys were very much scared. Their parents came to the police station and promised to keep them out of the lot on East street and to stop them throwing stones. The little fellows were then allowed to go.
