A Blaze of Fire-TerribIy Burned-
 Death Games s6 His Relief.
 very sad affair occurred Saturday morn ing at about eleven o'clock at J. D. Tyler's drug store on State street, corner of Bradley. Mir. Howard Williams, clerk in the store, had been cleaning one of the large fancy col ored show bottles kept in the window, and in handling it it slipped from him and broke, and some of the liquid ran down upon his clothing, saturating his trowsers to consider able extent The precise way in which the accident happened is not known, but it ap- pears that he went to the stove in the back room and struck match to light some paper in order to dry himself. Instantly his cloth ing was in a blaze. The young man, after 8 vain attempt to beat out the flames with his hands, ran across the street in blaze of fire, seeing some friends across the way. He was wrapped in an old carpet, and Dr. A. E. Winchell, who lives two or three blocks away, was sent for. The doctor arrived in very few minutes and did everything in his power for the unfortunate young man, who, after being stripped and wrapped in cotton and oil, was conveyed to the nearest friends, the home of his aunt, Mrs. Hawkins, on Grove street, opposite the cemetery. The young man was most severely burned on the inside of both legs and the lower part of his body. His sufferings being great, he was placed in the evening under the influence of opiates, but at about midnight Saturday night he died. The sad affair created much sorrow. and many are the kind words spoken of the deceased by patrons at the store and others who knew him. All speak highly of him as a very worthy young gentleman and pleasant com- panion and associate. He was about eighteen years of age. His parents reside on Elliott street, and their sad afaiction comes with heavy weight upon them. The liquid in the bottle is said to have been prepared thirty years ago by the elder Silliman, the bottfe and contents having passed through many hands in the meantime. In preparing the coloring fluid for show bottles more or less alcohol is used by many druggists to prevent the fluid from freezing in winter.

pr. LighthiIl in NOW Haven,

The celebrated Dr. Lighthill has concluded arrangements for making professional visits to New Haven, and will be found at 35 College street on and after Monday, the 17th, where he can be consulted on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. The hours are given in his announcement in another col umn. His great specialties are deafness, ca tarrh and diseases of the throat, lungs and ner- vous system, in which fields he has achieved rare and signal success, having effected many remarkable cures in difficult and obstinate cases, which have won for him the lasting gratitude of those thus benefited, among whom are many gentlemen of high position and standing, who most gladly give their testimo nials. He has been for twenty five years at the head of an extensive metropolitan prac tice, and his system of treatment involves neither pain nor distress to the most timid. The certificates published in his announce ment in another column will speak more fully on the subject a They are from prominent residents in our State.

Thrown open to the Public.

The public have rarely, if ever. been treat ed to finer or more generally attractive dis play than was open to their view on Saturday last in the beautiful new store of H. N. Whittelsey, jr., successor to H. N. Whittelsey $ O., Nos. 291 and 293 Chapel street, the wide and spacious store where T. F. Merwin < Go. conducted the dry goods business for many years past. All pronounce the stock one of rare profusion, elegance and tastefulness, and worthy of metropolitan enterprise. The display was managed and presented to view with the taste which is characteristic of this well known and old established house, and comprises splendid assortment of gems in china and glass ware; such as are fit to adorn the most elegant salons and din- ing rooms and add to the elegance of the most skillfuliy and studiously prepared menu Besides some choice selections in Faienea, Minton, Dresden, Wedgewood and other fine wares, there are some beautiful specimens of the celebrated crockery ware in amber, rose and green, the wares giving new eclat to th
