A call has been issued by the Eastern bicyclists including the Connecticut and New York divisions Of the League of American Wheelmen for a special assembly meeting of that organization. The call has been forwarded to Presi- dent Dunn, and the President has de- cided to call the meeting. It was re- quested that the meeting be held at Hartford. The request has been ac- ceded tO, and the meeting will convene at that place on Sept. 9 and 10. It will be held at the time Of the Hartford race meet. . The purpose of the meeting is to dis- cuss the racing troubles and the alli ance with the Amateur Athletic Union. A number of other questions will also come up for adjustment. The Western delegates were desirous of having the meeting held at Detroit in August, but on account of the inability of many to get to Detroit a more central location has been chosen. The meeting will be one of the most important ever held in the history of the League. I Don’t Be Deceived by dealers who “cut” prices. “Cut. ting prices leads to “cutting” goods.

The following are the details of the water pipe burstin the Queen’s palace, Tuesday night, to which reference was made in Wednesidayls DAILY GAZETTE: It did not become generally known until this morning that there was a most strange and exciting scene at the royal banquet given at“ Windsor Castle last night in honor of the Queen’s imperial grandson. It appears that a large wa~ ter pipe burst in the banquet hall while the Queen was entertaining the Empe- ror and party of, distinguished guests, a majority of whom? Were members of the royal and imperial. families. The ' result was that the hall ‘was , almost, Finding that the flooded with water. combined efforts of the Queen’s attend- ants and of the castle servants were powerless to check the flow of water from the broken pipe it was found nec- essary to summon the fire department, who eventually succeeded in turning the water Off. Some time elapsed before order was restored and before the Queen‘s guests were able to resume their seats at the table and managed to continue. the ban- quet in the much dampened hall. A state banquet was given in St. George’s hall last night. The guests sat ata table 150 feet long,uponwhich were displayed gold candelabras and the whole of the royal plate, valued at £1,- 800,000. Golden Wedding. We have been furnished with the fol- lowing additional particulars Of the very interesting golden wedding anni- versary of the parents Of Mr. O. E- Wilson, of Norwalk, which occurred on the 30th ult. . Just fifty years that day Norman A. Wilson, of Harwinton, and 'Harriet L. Griswold, of Torrington, were married by the Rev. Samuel Day. The couple have resided in Harwinton ever since. Ex-Senator Lewis Catlin and his sister, Mrs. Webster, who were present, are the only persons now liv- ing who were also present at their mar- riage. NO man has done more for his native town than Mr. Wilson and so it was not surprising that a. hundred and 'more of his fellow towns people assem- bled to do him honor, and also to pre- sent him an easy chair. The Torring- ton Register for which paper Mr. Wil- son has: been a valued contributor for years, sent him a large rattan rocker, and his son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. O. E. Wilson, gave their par- ents abright golden eagle each. Six children, foursons and two daughters, survive to bless and make happy the declining years Of their aged and wor- thy parents.

Luckenbach arrived in Dutch Island harbor at 7 o’clock this morning with their big Leary raft of logs in tow. They left Cape Pogue, Vineyard Sound, yesterday morning and last night found the wind and sea so high that it was deemed best to put in here for a harbor. The raft is all right, but severe. wrenching and possi- ble breaking was feared from the rough water. The wind has subsided and the tugs and tow will proceed toward New York as soon asthe sea becomes calmer. Dying of Lockjaw. NEW HAVEN, July 9.—Josephene Wallace, the woman who by jumping from a carriage at the shore about ten days ago, broke her ankle, is at the hospital suffering from lockjaw and her cOndition is serious. The woman sus- tained a compound fracture of the ankle and the case was a very serious one when she. reached the hospital. The physicians there did all they could to save the limb, but Sunday lockjaw set in, and in hopes of saving her life the limb was amputated. The amputation seemed to have the effect of improving her condition, but she is still in danger. Her home is at 147 State street in this city. Av 7‘ Wreck on the New England. WATnnnunY, July 9.——A serious acci- dent occurred yesterday morning on the New England road which may re- sult in the death of one engineer, who was badly injured. Two freighttrains collided near Graystone, and Engineer Havens’ engine and seven carswere de-- railed and badly smashed. A Traveling Salesman Missing. MERIDEN, July 9.—George H. Tuttle of this city, a traveling salesman for Warner Jr 00., tailors, Of Hartford, has been missing from his home since last Thursday. .He ran two clothing clubs here, and had taken in about $3,000. He had $1,400 of this sum in the bank but drew it out some time ago. If you had taken two of Carter’s Lit- tle Pills before retiring you would not have had that. coated tongue or bad taste in the mouth this morning.

That. has almost entirely disappeared and I have not had headache since—J. H. Sommers, Stephney, Conn. Commodore Burritt Wins. The tenth annual regatta of the'New Haven Yacht club was sailed Wednesday , , and everything combined to make it an interesting and exciting one. ’ The _ wind was very favorable to the yachts- men, and the whole race down to the mouth of the Housatonic river and back was close and exciting. The Elm City accompanied the yachts over the course and about 800 spectators wit- nessed the race from the steamer. The start was made shortly after eleven o’clock in the morning. , The wind blew from the northwest and the yachts had no trouble in getting over the imaginary line between the steam- er Messenger, On which were the judges, and Pardee’s buoy. The course was to the mouth of the Housatonic river and return, in all a little over twenty miles. . The Dare Devil was the first to go over the starting line, going aeross un- der full sail only a few seconds after the starting gun had been fired. The Carrie W. was second, the Mariota third and the Champion, Commodore Frank Burritt’s new boat, fourth. Then followed the Stranger, Aria, Wanda and the Rival in the order named. The latter yacht is a speeder and she had not crossed the line ‘long before she caught up with the leaders and commenced to show her speed. The race was a pretty one all the way down to the turning point, but when the yachts had squared away for home the real racing began. The Wanda, carrying as much canvas as she had, came bowling along with Jack Macau- ley’s Stranger keeping her company. The Wanda was clearly outSpeeding a great many of the other yachts when she got too near the shore and lost ’ the breeze and also a great advantage that she had gained. The Champion was the first to cross the finish line, having outstripped all the other yachts. She was closely followed by the Rival, which had been the last to go cut; then the Flora and the Stranger. . The lat- ter yacht was sailed over the course by her owner, Jack Macauley, and there does not seem to be any boat in ,her class, or in some others, fast enough to beat her out. The Stranger was en- tered in class four, twenty-two feet to twenty-eight feet, but there were no other competitors in this class and be- fore the race Macauley entered in class three, for yachts twenty-eight feet to thirty-three feet. She won first money in this race and Captain Waterhouse of the Wanda thought it was an injustice to him in giving the first prize to the Stranger. He claims that he did not know that the Stranger was entered in the class the Wanda was in, and if he had he would not have sailed his boat against her. He further said that he would not sail his boat again in another race. The Stranger won the Warren chal- lenge cup and a special prize for best corrected time in Classes 1, 2, 3 and 4. The Stranger’s corrected time was 3:52:26. The Rival took $80, the first prize, and the Derby challenge cup for win- ning in Class 2. The Flora received the second prize, $10, the Wanda the second prize,.$10, in Class 3, and the Champion, the first prize, 320, in Class 6. '0' A Narrow Escape. When the steamer John H. Starin was off Penfield Reef Tuesday night on her return from Glen Island, asail- boat was] sighted flying the signal Of distress. It proved to be a 19-foot cat- boat containing one man and two boys. They were Robert L. Shepard of South- port, the owner of the boat; George Slosson, of Waterbury, and George McKay of Southport. They had been to'Bridgeport and were on their way home when a squall struck the boat, capsizing it just off Penfield “reef. They drifted at the mercy of the wind .. and waves until the Starin’isighted their ' signal of distress. Aline "was passed them fromthe Starin and they were. towed to New-Haven. Mr. Shepard,- the owner of the boat,- on arrivingin ' p, New Haven, found himself placed'in'a . ' decidedly unpleasant fpositieg. .

NEW YORK, _ July 9.——There was a ively fire at the car stables of the Sixth Avenue Surface Railway Company, at Sixth avenue and Forty~third street, yesterday at noon. It could not be call. ed a very important fire, so far as the damage was concerned, for that will scarcely reach $30,000; the mortality was not large, consisting as it did Of two horses; but the firemen had a live, 1y time for a brief hour, and every one, including the veteran chiefs, breathed 'more freely after it was over. -. About 900 horses were taken out safe- ly, and only two were lost. These two were in the hospital, and they were both badly frightened. One of them jumped through a window to the street injuring itself so badly that it had to be shot. The other broke its leg and ”it: also was shot. - Be Careful! No matter what disease you may have.
