N. \‘T‘l'lernld Weather Forecasts.

The Colorado depression has moved
very slowly, but will probably continue
lta northeasterly advance to—day, caus-
lng rain in the western and northwestern
parts of this section to-niorrow. The
“cold wave" extends over the northern
part of the lake region. Temperature
rose slightly in the United States yester-

degrees, at Bismark. Dali. T.; the chief

maximum, hi, at Fort Elliott, Texas.

In this district to-day fair, warmer
weather and fresh to light southeasterly
and southerly winds will probably pre.
vall. In the Middle States and New Eng-

land, fair to partly cloudy weather will
prevail, with fresh southerly to south-
easterly winds and higher temperature,
preceded by nearly stationary tempera
ture near the coast line. On Friday, in
this section and in New England, fair to
partly cloudy, slightly warmer, more
sultry weather will probably prevail

This morning the 11.31 east bound train
fronl this city struck and killeda man
between the East Norwalk crossing and
the east end of the railroad budge.

An eye witness to the accident rays
that the man was walking eastward and
h:- saw a freight train uppronchinu and
steppe-I to the opposito track to avoid it.
Just as he got on the track the newspa-
per trsln came along and he was struck
and thrown halfway down the embank-
lnent. The trilln was stopped and the
body was taken to the East Norwallt
di pol. -

The body presented a ghastly appear-
ance. The left foot wse completely
severed from the leg and the left hand
was frlgbtfully crushed. The back of
the man's skull was also crushed to
llllt'lt an extent that all he lay on the
stretcher awaiting the arrival of Medical
Examiner Burke, a large pool of blood
was formed. It wuss repulsive sight
ntld made faint hearted men and women

A FINE GAME YESTERDAY AFI'EB-
NOON.

A small crowd witnessed a first-class
game of ball at the Baxter Grounds yes
terday afternoon. The opposing clubs
were the Norwulks and Senators of New
York. The second inning was the criti-
cal moment for the Norwsllrs and but
for the errors of Rogers and Donnelly
the Senators would not have scored four
runs. Donnelly, however, redeemed
himself during the remainder of the
game and caught two flies and did some
good baiting. lo the eighth inning Sul~
livan and Gilbert each made some good
slid: s and by timely batting were enabl-
ed to cross home plate. Lorett was in
the box for the Norwalks and he kept
the visitors down ton few bits. Capt.
Jack played on first base and, as ever,
no balls were allowed to pass him.

The only feature about the game that
wa-n't right was the small attendance.

tiest events that has occurred in this city
for a long time. The contracting parties
were Arthur H. Heroes, of New Haven.

church was tastefully decorated with
tropical plants and made a very pretty
appearance. Previous to the arrival of
the bridal party Stephen 3. Batch rend-
ered several selections on the organ. At
3.80 o'clock the bride and groom, pre-
ceded by the ushers. marl-lied up the
center aisle. They were "It-I. ill the altar

who performed the ceremony. The
bride was prettily attired in a goblln
grey traveling suit. The ushers were
Louis Bradley and Charles lelnlb of New
Haven, and George Hoyt, brother of the
bride, and E. E. Crowe, of this city. At
the conclusion of the ceremony Mr. and
Mrs. Barnes were driven to the station
where they took the 4.22 train for Bos-
ton. They will be absent several weeks
and upon their arrival from an extend-
ed wedding tour they will locate on
Thompson Ave., East Haven.

Guests were present at the wedding
from New Haven and other places. The

Mr. I’ierre Inrillurd for many years, is
apparent. The car is handsomely fur-

of the room are a bath tub. marble wash

Profemor Morris begins to train his

best training they can receive. he says.
is to are the others perform. Great pati-
ence and klndnell are required, but too
much fondling is not a good thing, as it
is likely to destroy the respect which the
animal should always have for his mus-
ter. After the animals are trained, re-
hearsals are unnecessary. They enjoy
no other part of the day as well as that
occupied by the performance.

Dotta Dimple, a native of East India,
is the pet of the family, being the small-
est horse in the world, weighing only
9i pounds, and will be five years of age
in June next. Dimple and her partner,
Banner, do a school act that is clever.
The ponies, 11 in number, are finely bred
and beautifully marked. There are 32
dogs, running in variety from the bull
terrier to an English grey bound, A fine
looking specimen of a bull dog is Cute,
who is the clown. the admiration of the
other canines. One of the acts of the
show is taken by four dogs, who do a
comedy entitled "The Visit of Mr. and
Mrs. Franklin," in which two of them
appear in male and female attire wheel-
ing a baby carriage, and present them-
selves at the house of their friends. We
also noticed Robson and Crane, two
sturdy specimens of the Rocky Mountain
gosh.

The bill giving the Housttonic power
to increase its capital stock came up be-
fore tlic House yesterday. There was
a lively debate, but a vote was not reach-
ed and probably will not be to-dsy.

The bill reported by the majority of
the committee is as follows:

Sze'nos 1.--Any railroad company in
thisstute may build branches from its
main line or from any of its leased lines,
providedtbattheboardofrailroud eornr
miseioners shall udjudge that the echo
struction of such branch is required by
public convenience and necessity.

Sac. 2—For the purpose of paying the

road company may issue bonds secured
by mortgage to the amount of one-half
of said cost, to be verified in the manner
now provided by law for verifying the
cost of a railroad for the purpose of issu-
ing bonds.

Szc. 3—80 much of section 2,472 of the
general statutes as relates to the cou—
strnctioli of branches by railroad com-
panics is hereby repealed.

NEW I.O(_'Ollfl'l‘l\'ES.

S x new locomotives are building for
the Consolidated railroad at the shops of
the Rhode Island Locomotive works in
Providence, and are nearly completed.
Theseengines are to have cylinders 18x24
inches. big drivers, and are built espec-
ially for speed. The latest appointments
in engine building are to be supplied,
and it is expected that they will be as
fine as any motor on this road. The
Baldwin engines did not fulfill all the
expectations, and they are running mosh
ly on the accommodations. They are
apparently too heavy for speed. A rail—
road man in speaking of them last night
said the working of the big connecting
rods reminded him of the walking beam
of a steamer.

The read Island engines when coaled
are expected to weigh a little ever 80
tons each. They are intended to run on
the big express trains, and to be ready
in season for the early summer business.
They will undoubtedly run considerably
faster than the Baldwins.
