The ”Harp in the Air" by Miss Montague

Charles lleauchamp, the foreman who
had charge of the dynamite cartridges
which exploded near Bedford Park,
Monday morning. almost wrecking a
New York division train, has been dis-
charged by the contractors who have
charge of the work at that place. Beau-
champ says he is blameless for the ex-
plosion, and gives the following account
of the affair: “I llll'll n a ;l..ll lire in a
cut about thirty f vet from lilo truck to
thaw out seven or eight dynsinito cart-
ridges of onsrbalf pound each. I placed
six of them in a wheelbarrow, which
was moved to within three feet of the
firs. [stood by the wheelbarrow and
turned the cartridges round several
times so that the heat would thaw them
thoroughly. I was watching the cart-
ridges, when sparks from the fire settled
on and ignited the paper covering of the
dynamite. There is no particular danger
attached to burning dynamite. except
that iris more likely to explode if moved
about carelessly. l was on the point of
picking up a pail of water to extinguish
the burning dynamite when the train
poured atatcrrific rate of speed. The
rumbling and jirring camel] by the rap-
id motion of the cars jostled the cart-
ridges on the wheelbarrow, causing them
to explode.”

will crime to-day.

The department was called to order at
1.30 p.tn. by [lepaitmcnt Commander F.
B. florist.- of Winsted. :A'ronnd him were
stated all the department oiliccrs. The
proceulmg» were opcncl with prayer by
Rev. J. ll. Twichell of Hartford. The
reports of Commander Home and other
officers were read and referred. The ad-
jutant general's report showed a total
membership. December 31. 1888, of 6321'
a gain of 230 during the year. The wo-
man's relief corps has a membership of
1.8%, a gain of 3:4. At 3.30 the depart-
ment adjourned until 830 this morning.
The election of officers will be held at 9
sun. General W. H. Pierpont of New
Haven will undoubtedly be elected dc.
partmerit commander, and General W.
Kevlar of Bridgeport, will probably be
elected senior vicevcommander. The
election of junior vice-commander is still
in doubt.

' The exercises in the rink were opened
with prayer from Chaplain Twichell.
Au address of welcome was made by
Judge A. 11. Penn and was responded to
by Judge A. Beers of Bridgeport.
Rev. 1. M. Foster, past department com-

The Fish Controls-lion.

Shell Fish Commission, the New Haven
Register says:

Recently there has been talk of asking
the legislature to abolish the Connecticut
board of shell lllli commissioners entire-
ly, or else have its duties performed by
it stain agent of fisheries. Under the
first way there wouulil be no authority
save the legislature in all matters per.
taining to the fisheries, and the business
now done by the commission would go
by default, practically speaking: under
the second the agent would take the
place of the commission and do all that
is now required of it.

This proposed change has caused much

talk among fishermen and oystermen
generally all over the state. as to the ad-
visability of it. and the comparative ad-
vantages of it and against those of the
present system. The generally expressed
opinion was, however. that the working
of the present Commission is satisfactory
to the fishermen and a change is deemed
unnecessary and unadvisable. The oys-
tcrmen particularly have expressed
themselves as in favor of the present rc-
gime and opposed tqanytbing looking
toward achange. The matter will pro-
bably come up before the legislators be-
fore long.
A matter which is of considerable in.
tons! to oystermen is embodied in a bill
which will be introduced: in the legisla-
ture to-morrow or within a few days.
This bill looks to the amending of sec-
tion 21320 of the statutes, which provides
for the return to the state of grounds
that have proved useless and valuelcss
for oyster cultivation. The section reads
that the grantee tiny return such grounds
and “otbvr”—this word is where the
trouble occurs. The new amendment is
to provide for the return rrf such grounds
by the grantee, his heirs. asaiguccs or
legal representatives.

A case in point was one which recent-
ly camsup. A man named Seeley pur-
chased grounds from the state. a Mr.
Barnes furnished the money. Mr. Secley
transferred the grounds to Mr. Barnes,
who now owns them. The grounds
proved useless and under the present
law Mr. Barnes cannot return them to
the state, they having been originally
granted to Mr. Seeley.

pendent way of looking at things, takes
just about the view of the railroad situa-
tion in this state already expressed by
the1Ccurant—that there is too much lobby
that the parallel charter shouldn't be
granted. and that the increase asked for
by the Consolidated road should be de-
finitely fixed before it is granted. If out
of all the contest there comes so satisfac-
tory a resplt it will be well for the state.
