The “cold wave” will probably break
up to-day. Temperature was nearly
stationary in the United States yester-
day, but rose slightly In the West. The
chief minima reported were—Sydney,
10 degrees; IhcklIlI-I, Marquette, St.
Vincent, Asstnaboine and Minnedoss, 4
dsgreas;Buford,2 degrees. and Father
Point, Halifax, Lacrome and Comer, 0
degrees. The chief maxima were Key
West, 70 degrees, and Brownsville, 62
degrees. In this district to-day, slightly
warmer, fair to partly cloudy weather
will probably prevail, with fresh, var-
iable winds, becoming easterly and
southerly, increasing in force, sud fol-
’ lowed by snow, winds possibly becom-
ing dangerous of! the coast. In tbshlid-
die States and New England slightlv
warmer, partly cloudy to fair weather
and variable winds wIll prevail, possibly
followed by snow. On Tuesday In this
section and in New England, warmer
partly cloudy to fair weather will prob-
ably prevail, with variable winds, preced

The attendance throughout the week
was good. A great many were present
Saturday night either with a desire to
dance or with the hope of carrying home
one of the grand prizes. Some were
disappointed however, as all could not
very well be tbs lucky ones. Those who
attended with the sole purpose of having
asocial time fully realised their expecta-
tion. The dancing was heartily enjoyed
and the floor was well filled during the
evening. Occasionally there would be a
short Intermission to allow the different
articles of chance to be disposed of.
The net receipts are not yet known,
but it is probable that a large sum will
be realised.
At 11 o‘clock the grand prizes were
drawn. Very few numbers were rep
resented. Those who were not present
can get their prices by calling upon Capt.
Betta. Following are the numbers
drawnz-957, 646, 423, 87, 85, 634, 953,

was performed by the Rev. J. M. Carroll

The attire of the bride was exceedingly
tasteful and becoming. None but im-
mediate relatives and one or two inti-
mate friends witnessed the happy event.
After a trip East Mr. and Mrs. Lowndes
will make Bridgeport their permanent

etc., and now the wife, feeble from rs-
ccnt confinement and overwork, with a
babe lem than three weeks old, and yet
alone to do the work, carry water up
stairs, care for her babe and helpless
husband. There is great need of astrong
person to help them, but no money to
pay them and none to buy food for them.

A Good Cornmlsalun to Abolish.
When a body of men organized by
order of the legislature has done the
work which it was designed to do, then
it is time to dissolve it. If incidentally
that body has proved a source of expense
greater than the revenue it was designed
to divert to the state, there is ended re -
son for its dissolution, and no factilious
mission should be accepted as an nrgu~
msnt for its prolonged existence. This
Is the history of the shell fish commis-
sion of this state and it is hoped that the
legidsturc‘will abolish It this session,
notblng save a curious hesitation on the
part of the senate having prevented its
abolition in 1887.
The arguments “Ly lil‘ mmmisflan
should "go" have often been prisented.
11.1881 lt was created to tell for the
state, and thus secure a revenue, lands
along the coast suitable for oyster culti-
vation. The idea was not bad, but to-
day tbs situation is this: The lands are
practically all disposed of and the ex-
penses of the commission to the store are
three times that of the proceeds of the
sales. Why not abolish such an expen~
sivc luxury ?
The chief reason why the commission-
ers object to being wiped out politically
is that a map of the lands which was
ordered in 1881 is not yet completed. It
was "to cost when completed not ex-
ceeding $2,000." and yet It is chered as
the chief explanation of the big deficit.
The total sales of lands have amounted
to$58.000 but unfortunately ninety per
cent. of this is not profit—as was the
case when the towns sold the lands for
the benefit of their treasuries—for the
expenses of the commission have been
$77,000. In‘othsr words it has cost the
state "$19,000 to enjoy the luxury of a
shell fish commissIon. This deficit must
be increased by $8,000 already returned
land holders, according to law, for lands
surrendered after trial as suitable for
oyster cultivation;" and as there are al-
ready such claim amounting to $16,000
more, the net loss to the state by reason
of the existence of the commission must
be set down as $43,000 and the end is not
yet.
The sales of land for the past two years
have been merely nominal. only about
$1,000 annually. As to the claim of the
ccmmbsion that it should exist to collect
the tax laid on lands, it would not seem
difficult to find an officer glad to collect
the tax for the usual percentage. The
payments are made at the office of the
commission in New Haven; there is no
expensive and inconvenient solicitation
necessary. Again, the commission asserts
that it sfl'ordsa tribunal for the settle-
ment of difficulties. In reply it can be
said that it is not the policy of the state
to maintain special courts, especially
when the cases in question are few and
of competitively minor importance,ou
causes which the regular courts can
dispose of economically and satisfactori-
ly.
There seems to be no good reason why
the shellfish commission should be con-
tinued. If it bad a mission, it is ended;
or if not ended, It is of not enough im-
portance to warrant performance through
the expensive methods of the commis-
siou.--Palladium. ,
-The case is worse against the Fish
Commission than as presented in the
above article, as the pay of the commis-
sioners and their employees has am-
ounted to over $80,000 instead of $77,-
000, and the item for the map should be
$3,500 instead of $2,000
The commission ought to go.

Saturday afternoon Captain (,‘harlca
Lowndee had his steamer "Jessie Clay-
ton" anchored oil Rolon l’oint. He saw
a sail bout a short distance from his
steamer and a few minutes later was sur-
prised to see that it bad capsized
hlr Lowndes pulled up anchor as soon
as possible and started to assist the un-
fortunate than who was in the and boat.
When he reach him the man was nearly
exhausted with the cold. As the boat
upset a kerosene stove set fire to some
bedding, but with much difficulty he
succeeded in putting out the flames He
then gained the bottom of the skill that
ho had in tow and awaited the arrival of " 5
Mr. Lowndes.
The man resided in Sound Beach and
had just purchased the sail boat. The
ballast was not fastened in the boat and
a heavy gust of wind caused it to roll to
one side, which was the cause of the sc-
cident.
In on almost dying condition the man
was taken aboard the steamer. After
his wot clothes were removed he was
thoroughly rubbed. He remained on
he steamer yesterday and when be de-
parted he felt grateful for the kind treat-
ment be had received.

An Important Dsclslon.
The Supreme Court has afiirmedlbc
decision of Judge Torrance in the Sn-
perior Court last February, setting aside
the order of the Railroad Commissioners
in assessing $2,000 upon the town of
Fairfieid for separating several grade
crossings there and closing a highway.
The entire expense was placed by the
court upon the railroad company, and
the highway was kept open. The Con'
solidaled Railroad appeal. d, but the Sn-
preme Court has affirmed the judgment
of the court below. Judge Pardee is to
write the opinion. The decision changes
the policy of the State Board of Railroad
Commissioners in regard to apportioning
the expense of removing grade crossings.
This decision is a most important one.
and, it is believed will settle the grade
