The Naval- Parade.

The naval parade in New York was
one of the finest pageants that this
country has ever seen. And itslsignifi-
cance at New York was different from
its meaning at Hampton Roads. At the
latter place it was chiefly remarkable
as a gathering of warships of all pow-
ers at a great naval port. In New York
it was as-a representation of the mari-
time powers _in the ' harbor of the
mightiest commercial port of this hem-
isphere, destined to be the richest port
in the world. .

At Hampton Roads the review was
purely naval ; at New York it was more
strictly maritime. At Hamilton Roads
we looked at the ships as engines of

' war ; in New Yerk we looked at them
as the friendly representatives of great
powers whose relations are those of
peace and who rejoice in our well-be-
ing. America is proud to welcome
them to our shores and to invite them
to share our hospitality.

It is the hope of the civilized world
that before many years these mighty
warships of to—day may be needless ;
that warfare may be abandoned. for
wiser methods of settling disputes ; that
great nations may abstain from on-
larging their possessions by seizing dis-
tant territory, and allow the doctrine
of universal home rule to have sway.
But until then warships and coast de-
fenses will be necessary.

The United States has made wonder-
ful strides in the building up of _a pow-
erful Navy. Our coast defenses are
still weak, and one of the suggestions
of the naval phrade is the wisdom of
supplying ourselves with adequate

‘ means of defense, as well as with
weapons of attack. We are more like-
ly to need the former than the latter,
and our peace-loving sentiments should
find expression in the acquisition of
both alike. ' '

Watchman James McManus, of the
New Haven jail, was arrested last night
in that city, and will be held on the
charge of being responsible for the
death of George Hall, who was clubbed
by the watchman Saturday night last.
Hall was staggeringup a street in New
Haven late that night under the influ-
ence of liquor when he was met by the
watchman.

The latter told him to brace up and
get along home or he would arrest him.
Hall made some disrespectful remarks
to the officer and the latter immediate-
ly took hold of him and drawing his
club beat him about the head and bac

 

 

until the man dropped. The watch-
man then left him. »

Some time after an officer stumbled

across Hall lying in the gutter half un-

consolous and bleeding. vHe took him

to the station house and a warrant was

issued for the arrest of McManus for

assault and carrying concealed wea-

pons. Hall was later allowed to go

home. McManus did not appear in

It now looks as if the rising of the
General Assembly mlght be expected
about J une 1. Mr. Green of the coni-
mittee on Cities and Boroughs said to
your correspondent that they had some
70 matters on hand, but the moreim-
portant ones [were out of the way.
They had already reported some 30
bills, and if the_Assembly did not ad-
journ by June it Would not be their
fault. The'chairman of the Incorpora-
tions committee said they had remain-
ing onlyfiQ bills out of 500. Chairman
Hotchkiss, of the committee onEduca—
'tion,‘ said they could prbbably report
matters and et them out of" the way
next week. he spokesmen for the
other committees expressed themselves
likewise, and thespecml inquiry com-
mittee, appointed to report next Tues-
day, will probably report a state of
affairs cheering to the legislators in
beth branches.

Only 58 members assembled in the
House yesterday and 11 in the Senate.
Nevertheless, business went on. The
Senatetabled the bill increasing the
salary of the Governor’s chief clerk
from $1,400 to $1,800. In concurrence
with the House there was rejected the
act incorporating the Telephone, 'l‘ele-
graph and Illuminating company of
Bridgeport. The ~bill had been ad-
versely reported by the‘committee at
the request of the projectors.

The House, in concurrence, rejected
the bill incorporating the Aluminum
company of Bridgeport. The Medical
Practice act, as amended, was made
the special order of the, day for next
Thursday. The Senate passed the bill
incorporating the Hebrew Mutual Aid
society, of Bridgeport. On an unfav-
orable report the bill incorporating the
Electric Light and vaer company, of
Westport, and the Electric Light and
Gas company of the same town were
rejected.

On an unfavorable report the bill
making bakeries subject to the super-
vision of the State Factory Insllector
was defeated. There was passed the
game law amendment making the kill-
ing of each bird out of season a sepa-
rate ofi'ence. -

A hearing by the committee on For-
feited Rights in the case of Smith and
Loughlin of Bridgeport, was fixed for
next Tuesday. In the House the com-
mittee on Judicial Nominations report-
ed unfavorably on the nomination of
George D. Stanton, Jr., for judge, and
Simeon Gallup for deputy judge of the
town court of Stonington. The, reso-
lutions of appointment were rejected.
In the Senate several bills providing
for the election of representatiVes to
fill vacancies were repolgted unfavora-
bly and rejected.

The J udiciary committee will report
a bill amending the statutes in that re-
spect. Under the present law a vacan-
cy inthe office of representatives oc-
curring after the first Monday of Feb!
ruary cannot be filled by special elec-
tion. The Senate assigned the discus-
sion of the important Medical Practice
act for Thursday, May 4, at noon and
adjourned to Tuesday at 1 o’clock.

The Bridgeport waiters union held a

Wanted to See the Circus.
George Lake, a twelve year old boy,
was sent to the county home-in Nor-
walk this morning by Judge Walsh.‘
The youngster’s mother is in destitute
circumstances and he has not been sent
to school.

When the boy was taken down stairs
after court he burst into tears and be-
tween his sobs declared that he did not
want to go to the home.
“Why not,” one of the officers in-
quired, “You will have a nice home.”
' “Don’t care” shouted the boy, “I
wanter see the circus.”
The policeman tried to comfort him
with the assurance that the circus
would be in Norwalk, too.
“There won’t be no fun there,” re-
plied the boy. “I don’t know any fel-
lows there.”
‘ The boy was arrested several weeks
ago for stealing coal. He told the
judge that there was no coal in the
house and no money to buy any. The
selectmen investigated the case and
found that he told the truth. The town

OPERA HOUSE. ‘ .
Lee’s All-Star company appeared at
the Opera House last night. The audi-

the entertainment would warrant. Pro!
fessor Williams in his feats of legerde-
ma1n_was very fine and he succeeded in
mystifying and pleasingall. Miss Ade-
ligl‘l Mitchtell, the soprano vocalist and
. so 0.15.! sang very sWeetly. Miss
Edith_\Vllllams proved herself to be a
musical wonder ” and delighted the
audience With her playing of the man-
dolln and violin. Gus Nicol, the sing-
ing comedian, gave excellent satisfac-
ti‘on with his songs and witticisms. R.
l. ,Willlams sang comic and sentiment-
al songs in a manner that won for him.
an encore. All the numbers on the
programme were presented in a first-
class manner. The show is clean, bright

pears at the same place to-night and

1ng a ladies’ gold watch. The enter-
tainment concludes each evening with
a mirth provoking farce. A leading
feature ‘18 the Swiss bellringing by the

B. Mackle, will be seen in the great
laughing comedy “Grimes’ Cellar
Door,” which is said to be gay, merry
fun from-first to last, relieved only by
bright musical numbers, original songs,

strewn throughout the performance.
Much-is expected of this «attraction as
Mackie’s work as “Grimesy Me Boy”
in “A Bunch of Keys,” while excellent,
gave promise of his doing even better
work in a better comedy. His support-
ing company is large and strong. This
Wlll be the attraction at the Opera
House on Tuesday evening May, 2d,
and no one should miss being present.

MUSIC HALL.

At Music Hall, Wednesday afternoon,
May 3d. Will occur the grand Columbian
musmal festival by Sousa’s concert
band assmted by six eminent vocal
artists and Miss Leonora Von Stisch,
v1011n_v1rtu_oso. Mr. Sousa was born in
Washington, D. 70., in 1854, of Spanish
father and German mother. His early
musical training was of the best. At
26 years he was appointed, under the
Hayes administration, musical director
of _the United States Marine band,
which position he filled with great
erodit and honor for twelve years, dur-
ing which time the National band was
developed into one of the best drilled
bands in existence, and drew world-
w1de attention to Mr. Sousa as a band
master of unprecedented,if not unequal-
led, ability. Mr. Sousa remained with
the Marine band until he received an
offer to take up the baton of the pres-
ent unparalleled organization. ~
