Stretching across the broad hall at the
foot of the stairs was a massive arch of
laurel, from the centre of which hung a
large horse choc wrought of dark red
carnations, while at the has of the arch
was moored palms of rare varitles. In

around the depot this morning who
could tell just how the young hroketnan

in that locality between three and five
o'clock. and it is supposed young Wil-

to couple two can when they came to-

or between the side of one of the cars
and the platform and fatally crushed.

After the accident he was taken vuto the‘

found that the brakeman's left side had
been crushed and his left arm broken.

Golden Wedding.

Last night Mr. and Mrs. William H
Parsons, at the home of Ifilo B. Parsons.
Brookaide stock farm, received congratu-
lations and substantial tokens of esteem
and love from a host of relatives and
friends, who gathered there to celebrate
the fiftieth anniversary of their wedding.
The spacious residence was well adapted
for the occasion and the guestst-njoyed
its ample accommodations and the gen-
erous hospitality of its owners. The
friends present were from New York,
Brooklyn, Danbury, Norwalk and rur-
rcunding towns.

Many were the sincere and tender ex-
pressions of best wishes received by the
venerable couple. Exquisite floral ofler—
iogs, valuable articles of gold, and a con
siderable amount in coin were among
the substantial tokens which lore and
friendship bestowed.

The whole affair was one of those real-
Iy social occasions which brightwn and
widen the pleasures of life. and becom-
ingly express parental affection. The
following poem was written for the oc-
casion by Edward Rider:

ENTERTAINMENTS.

Adams Stock Dramatic Co.

"2 ops,” at Bugle Hall. last evening,
gave our people a great show. From the
time the curtin went up until the end of
the find act. it was almost a continuous
laugh. Mr. Adams, as Judge Lovetoddy,
a close adherent of the “statootsa” and
whiskey, was at his best. Hrs makeup
and general character were finbclaas.
The court scans in the third act, with
Judge Lovctoddy presiding. was ludic-
rous in the extreme. Bias Buraham, as
“ Zappa,” had a chance to display her
abilities hat evening, and improved them
to the delight of the audience. Ber
dancing in the fourth act was very grace-
ful and pretty. Ilsa Bumbam is with-
out doubt one of the moat winning and
entertaining coubrettsa ever seen here.
The rest of the company all did them-
selves justice. »

A recall-v "Issuance" Bur-ail 41cc-

The following special dispatch from
Daubury was printed in the New Britain
Herald yesterday:

Damn, Oct. 88.—-A story isnow go-
log the rounds that David Warren' a real
dance was burned here Sunday night
and that David is raining. About the
state this apparent reappearance of tits
bugs hers is regarded as serious, but by
the people here as a joke. As a matter
of fact Warren is a scheming hermit,
and for years has curated in a hole, once
allrnc kiln, located just on the line of
Brookfleld and Daobury. The interior
of the residence is about six feet square,
completely smoked by fire being built
by Warren inside. The save, as it is
called, la composed entirely bf earth and
slot! that will not burn. Sunday night
mischievous boys set bro to some leaves
and they burnt around the "residence.”
Their purpose was to frighten David and
they did it. He hates mankind and
consequently took his departure for the
time. Just now no one knows where he
in. but no one believes him dead. as just
this thing has happened many timese be-
fore. Warren is one of the most ec-
centric characters ever known in
Dunhury. A repulsive looking man
who might easily be taken as a half
brother to the late “leather man. Yet
he is particularly shrewd, and learn-
ing that his “residence” was located just
on the line of Brookfield and Danbury
he was supplied from the poor fund of
both towns, and had double charity
meted out to him for years before it was
found out. Edorts have been made
many times to induce the hermit to quit
town but he won’t go. He Iii now pro-
bably roaming around Bethel, and some
morning namengers on the Dinbury
branch railroad will see him smoking by
his care as usual. As for fir-3 bugs they
have not troubled the town much of late
and the smoking out the hernia: got, can
in no way be attributed to that source.

TO VOTE FOR NO LICENSE.
New Haven Saloon Icopsru to Array

Thamaclvcc on the Temperance Side.

The well-defined purpose of the county
commissioners to raise the license fee in
New Haven to $400 and perhaps {.500
has aroused the saloon men of that city,
says the Union, and they will use all
their efforts to prevent it. Being unable
to do this they will turn out almoet to a
man and vote for no license. There is a
combination among them to this end,
and each one of the guild will contributeI
from $5 to $25 to a fund to be used to
carry the election. The city votes on
lineme or no license in December. The
Union says:

" The effect of no license to other cities
it l8 demonstrated seven! facts. The
first. that ignore can he sold outwit: a
license; second, that it takes from the
treasury a big sum of money; the third.
that It increases the taxes in the prosecu—
tion of illegal selling; and fourth, that it
fills up the courts beyond their capabili-
ties and practically amounts to nothing.
With this view of the case the saloon

now on trial before Judge Phelps in the
superior court. The petitioner is Mrs.
Thomas C. Benedict, aged sixty. The
respondent is three years her senior and
is said to be worth $60, 000. The co-re-
spondent is Mrs. Carrie Sarles, a pretty
widow, who came to Dauhury in 1885,

stand the date of every visit she had
noted. Once, she said. he had crawled
under a barbed wire fence from the rear
of the house. so as to get in unobserved,
and he tore a dreadful hole in his coat in
doing it, which hole the widow neatly
darned for him. Mrs. Benedict demands
$20, 000 alimony. : ‘
