 Yesterday was the second and last of the tournament of the Connecticut brigade at Quinnipiac range. A strong southeast wind was blowing across the range, which had a tendency to keep down the scores. The shooting, however, was good, and the mem bers of the different teams may well feel proud of the record made.

10th Hands Blown or.

The roar of the cannon that Ethundered yesterday at Stamford in honor of the visit of General Grant is not likely soon to fade from the memory of one unfortunate man, who will bear during life the marks of the sad accident by which he was overtaken. Through some unlucky mishap both hands were blown of clean at the wrist. The sad accident excited profound sympathy among the numerous spectators for the unfortunate sufferer

The Union City Railroad Accident

The cause of the accident to the train at Union City on Wednesday night, when the Hancock clubs were on their way from Waterbury to this city, was occasioned through a misunderstanding between the train dispatcher and switchman, which left an open switch for the passing train. No lives were lost, but the engine was badly damaged.

Important Arrests.

Two young men were arrested in Hartford yesterday on suspicion that they were en- gagged in the Middletown bank robbery. They went to the Allyn House and asked to see the register for July last, which was shown them. While the clerk was engaged they cut from the book two names that were registered in that month. It is thought their identity will be proven today.

A Wonderful Discovery.

Prince De Leon died of lung disease, and the fountain of perpetual youth of which he was in search never giaddened his eyes. Could he have had few bottles of Dr. Rob- Cherry, he would have been able to prolong his life, and he might have reached the longed- for goal. This syrup itself is almost aswon- derful discovery as De Leon's fountain would have been as the thousands whose lives it has saved will bear witness. Small bottles ten cents, large bottles fifty cents.

 The First had two men with uncompleted scores of six shots each. At 200 yards the score was All points The ten completed scores at 500 yards were: Total, 331. The uncompleted scores of 8 shots were 32 points; total, 834 ,as it stood at the close.
 The Second had won 458, their eleven completed scores were 43O, their uncompleted score of s shots was 28. Total 916.
 The Fourth at POO yards stood AS points. Their nine completed scores at 800 yards were 343. Their three uncompleted scores of twenty-one shots were 34 points, making the total S25 points.
 There seemed to be @ feeling among the officers of the Second regiment that the gun to stop firing was ordered by some officer of the First regiment who was unauthorized and that it was a game, knowing that they were beaten even though they should make bulls-eyes at every remaining shot, to break up the shoot and prevent defeat. The facts will no doubt come out on the hearing which is to follow

There are seven other prizes aggre- gating in value $1OO. Company F, Hartford, First regiment, takes fourth prize and Com pany G, South Manchester, First regiment, fifth prize.
 The above score also counts in the compe- htion between company teams of the Second regiment. Under this rule Company K, of Wallingford, again wins the regimental silver cup, valued at $50. The next (third) time the company wins this cup, it becomes their property. The second prize, fine clock, presented by Captain Allen, regimental in- spector of target practice, goes to Company I, of Meriden.
