the agency of one Of their children,
they answered all questions readily. In
several cases only young girls were
found at home, and they answered the
questions of the enumeration in bold
manner and joked with him about his
work one asked him if he would mar
nv her or procure her a nice-looking
husband if she would tell her age truly.
One woman who was in charge OF
small grocery store in the basement OF
a Bayard street tenement said in reply
to the request of the enumeration for
her name, 81 don't know my name nor
nv husbands name" The threat OF
the enumerator TO call in an officer and
arrest her, however, had the effect Of
stirring up her memory. and she gave
all the information desired. On the
upper floor of the same house family
OF Polish Jews were found. Here, in
room measuring about twelve feet
square, four grown persons and six chill
dren were sitting about table eating
their dinner. A pan of fish was cook

covered with dirt, and child about a
year and half old sat on bundle OF
dirty rags in cradle gnawing piece
of .;schwartz brod." The chlld's face
was covered with dirt and sores. and
the whole appearance of the room indl-
Gated the most abject poverty. The
enumeration received the names OF
Abraham and Sarah his wife. their
seven children and boarder and left
the room.
On one lot about eighteen feet in

found three houses "a wretched dllap-

modated. In two of them the reporter
saw the motto ..God Bless our Home

room were Hebrew pictures, symbols
and placards. In one room a middle
AGED man was found ON his knees with
his face to the east and a Hebrew Bible
spread out on q chair before him.
Without changing his position he al

the enumerator, and was again engaged

What New York Census Enumeration
Sees.

A REPORTER of the Ereninq Post re-
Gently accompanied one of the census
enumerators in his tour through num-
Der of houses in Baxter and Bayard
streets. As an illustration of the dense
population in this part of the city, it
may ne said that al noon yesterday the
ennmerator had completed his work in
twenty-three houses, and had secured
eleven hundred and twenty-seven
names, an average of forty-nine names
in each house, and even this is not a
fair estimate, As in two or three of the
houses families who could not speak
word of English. and who had recently
moved in. were found who could not
give any information concerning them
selves, nor could any of the neighbors
give il for them. In Baxter street, be-
tween Leonard street and Bottle Al
lew number of dilapidated wooden
and bric.. hoyeis were found, inhabited
by the very poorest and most degraded
class of Italians and negroes. In the
basement of one of these novels

Maltese were found who could not
speak a word of English, and no inter-

Haydn's Toy symphony.

HAYDN, as has often been said. loved
children. and TO please them was per-
fectlv in accordance with his gentle and
childlike disposition. Likely enough
the Prince, mis- patron, pined for nov
city, and the court musician took this
means of gratifying the ROYAL desire:
Or it is possible that the Little Moor,
as Prince Esterhazy dubbed him, dimly
recalled the days of his childhood, when
in the seclusion of his home he used to
accompany the simple melodies OF his
mother with pieces OF wood IN his
hands, one for Il violin and the other
for bow. These days Haydn never
forgot, and often in after-life the musi-
clan. covered with glory. delighted to
recall the family trios of which he was
a member in the bright hours OF his
youth.
On the title page we learn that the
children's symphony was written at
Berchtolds-gaden, a small Bavarian
town situated near Salzburg-Mozart's
home-in a part of Germany where peO-
pie make many toys and musical in
struments for children. 1t requires no
great strength of Imagination to see the
good-natured composer in attendance
at some ueighboring fair, trudging
about with basket, collecting such
playthings as would be of use in his
symphony, or to picture him going
from shop to shop trying the little toys,
and selecting those available for his
unique purpose. Having secured his
mimic orchestra and studied the COM
pass and character of the instruments
he had bought, Haydn sat down and
composed the amusing symphony. One
peculiar feature of the composition is
the absence of slow movement.
Father Haydn knew well that the little
performers for whom he probably wrote
would be too restless for an adagio, and
therefore omitted it.
To perform either of the toy symphO-
MES with proper effect, the parts ought
to be undertaken by children, and, as
sometimes in Germany, by grown per-
sons gaudily dressed up as CHILDREN.
The great difficulty in the way Of an
adequate performance is to secure
BOYS and girls who are not ''gigglers."
Musical skill is not absolutely neces-
sary, although, of course. experienced
musicians learn the piece quicker and
play it safer Performances of toy
symph onies, as is easily imagined. give
untold pleasure to the children and to
all true lovers OF children. When intro
duced at festivals and parties they never
fail to please. Globe.

The Parrot as q Teaze.

laxative parrot. Occasionally Polly

Bile shrieks and endeavors to be as
bad as she possibly can. When she
takes these spells the dog. knowing
that a reprimand is needed, goes to the
cage and administers several severe re-
Dukes in the shape of a savage little
bark. YESTERDAY afternoon Poll sat
upon her perch with all the dignity pos
sible. The dog was taking nap in an
adjoining room. Suddenly, without q
moments notice, Poll let loose two or
three unearthly screeches. The dog
was awakened. of course, and imme-
diately started toward the cage at a
full run, barking as he went. After
he had scolded. as he thought enough.
he adjourned to the other room and
Struggled himself for another snooze.
He had no more than closed his eyes
before Poll shrieked again, longer and
louder than before. Up jumped the
dog. and out he went barking furious

who had stopped her noise to give the
dog a chance, began to bark just as
loud as her four-legged associate, PEN

The Deatb of uvatt Miner

The death of young Hyatt Miner was the result of an accident In the evening after the close of business at the store, in a play full encounter, he was hit on the side of the head by some article. Nothing was thought of it at the time, and he went home and re- tired early. His roommate at 10 o'clock found that he had been vomiting, but was apparently fast asleep. Toward morning he was taken with convulsions, and despite all that medical aid could do death was the re- suit. A post mortem examination was held, resulting in the finding that death had result ed from the compression of the brain and the rupture of a blood vessel. The deceased was in business in this city with brother, Mr. w A. Miner, and afterward was engaged with wholesale grocery house.

A Timely Warning.

Persons suffering from catarrh, or throat affections, should exercise the greatest cau- ton at this season of the year, especially since certain atmospheric tendency is shown to develop such ailments into dangerous activ- ity. In Boston great number of the horses are down with the epizootic and a general spread of the disease is apprehended among horses, while with mankind there is increased danger from the same dangerous atmospheric sources of disease. Our people are to be congratulated in having at their command the services of a physician of such acknowledged skill and experience in the treatment of dis eases of this nature as Dr. Lighthil1, of New York city. His office in New Haven is crowd ed on his reception days with patients from every part of the State, anxious to obtain 1s3 lief.
