Gus Williams will appear in “April Fool” at Music Hall next Monday night. Rev. Oscar Lindegren, of East Nor- walk, will preach to the Swedes of Dan- bury to-night. Councilman Volk will leave for the World’s fair on Saturday and Landlord Walz on Monday next. Lanlerd‘ Hall and daughter of the City Hotel, are expected home to-day from the World’s fair. A sufficient number not appearing at the wharf this morning the steamer Stevens did not go down to the yacht race. Captain James K. Crofut has been granted leave of absence from October 20th to December 25, with permission to leave the state. 5 Constable Ireland yesterday'attached an organ belonging J . Wilson, of 'Bell Island, to satisfy a claim of $75 held by Mead Bros. ,of Five Mile River. The controlling cable of trolley car No. 1 broke last night, and as No. 3 car was undergoing repairs, only two cars were in service during the evening. The draw on the new railroad bridge over the Harlem river could not be closed this morning, and trains on the Consolidated road were delayed about three hours in consequence thereof. Special policeman Dan McIntire will array himself in his best suit this even- ing and jOurney down to Butler Lodge room and make his first attempt at rid- ing an Odd Fellows goat. We’ll wager a pint of peanuts that Dan sticks to the goat. An advertisement appeared in yes- terday’s - GAZETTE for an overcdat which had been exchanged on the arrival of the 3:06 train from New York ‘ on Saturday last. The ink had scarcely dried on the paper before the overcoat had been presented at the City Hotel in this. city. The guilty party proved to be none other than Mayor Lockwood. The Mayor explained his taking the wrong coat by saying that he had been so “broken up” over the defeat of Councilman Volk for Mayor, that he hardly knew where he was at since election. The coats were exchanged and reached their rightful owners, the Mayor’s conscience was clear and the fact was again demonstrated that the place to advertise is in the GAZETTE.

Deck and Nothing So Exasper- atlng as an .Inexpe- rlenced Crew. One commonly thinks of yachting as the most delightful of summer pasé times, says the Boston Transcript, and the very word calls up visions of a :“wet sheet, and a flowing sea, and a- wind that follows fast,” smells of salt things, and whistlings through the rigging, blue sky, white caps, driving clouds and all that sort of thing, to say nothing of the possibilities of delight- ful companionship and the delicious unconventionality of meeting one’s fellow men and women with all the formality and restraints of on-shore life thrown off; no making talk or any- thing of that kind, but knocking about carelessly and easily in flannel suits and having “a real good time.” Or, again, racing, With all its excitements, and cruising, with all of its possibili- ties of adventure, to Bar Harbor. Such is the popular and accepted view of yachting, but there is another and gloomy side to the picture which the writer, who is sometimes inclined to growl, can set forth clearly in three distinct statements, with an open chal- lenge to contradiction—first, that to “go and take a sail” in a small boat aimlessly about on the open sea. is “an awful bore;” secondly, that to go as “amateur crew” on a rowing yacht under sixty feet long is not only a bore, but a hardship, and on yachts ever sixty feet in length it is not cus- tomary to have an “amateur crew,” unless an occasional 3310. almost always useless passenger can be considered such; and, lastly, that cruising is a. lottery absolutely dependent on the weather. Fogs, calms, storms and head winds are quite as usual as free winds and sunshine. Observe that nothing has been said about seasickness, which makes yacht— ing impossible to so many. There is no place on earth where the sun can strike down out of the sky and bleach and blister and sizzle as it can upon a yacht’s deck. There is no place that can be hotter "or more stuffy or more uncomfortable than a yacht’s cabin on a. hot day, when there is no wind or when the wind is dead aft, and when it is rough, and the water is driv- ing across the yacht’s deck in a sheet of White foam, and the crew are all liud- dled behind the shrouds, intonvhich old oil skins have been stuffed to make a screen and the man at the wheel has life lines running from the main sheet to the main shrouds on either side of him to keep. him from being washed overboard, and the oil bags are hung to windward to keep the water from breaking, and the fire is out in the galley, and the cook has been scalded by the soup stock jumping out of the boiler, and the barometer is dropping like mad, and the skylight leaks sp that every wave which comes aboar sends bucketfuls of. swash down into the cabin, and when every now and then a. wave comes aboard and pounds down on her deck like a. load of pig iron, and those below are shaken about like corn in a popper, and those on deck simply hold on and duck their heads—when such is the condition of cred a pastime. The delights of being “amateur crew” can be briefly summed up. They consist in lying flat on your face either in a. hot sun or a. pouring rain, and if you turn over having the owner shout that you’re a wild elephant? You jarred her all over that time.” Further- more, all yachts are not rigged alike, and if the amateur crew is told at a critical point in the race—say just be- fore rounding the leeward mark—to let go the spinnaker halyards and let the balloon jib lialyards go instead, so that the whole sail goes over to lee- ward, the remarks which will be made to him will be “unfit for pulfiication.” Accidents on Chicago Day. CHICAGO, Oct. 11.——The list of accidents on Chicago day as reported to the pol cc, show five persons killed and a dozen in- jured. Most of the accidents were caused by grip cars. The Mid-Winter Fair.
