New York on the fourth of last March. His
mode of living makes him tramp, but he is
a more than ordinarily intelligent specimen of
that class Since coming to Black Rock he
has slept in barn near the Acid works.
The barn and the locality is favorite rem
devious for tramps, and Carlin is sure that
he caught the disease from some of the va
grants who sought lodgings in the barn. AS
far as he knew, however, none of his tran
sient companion dodgers had the disease. He
began to be sick about the first of last week,
but the eruptions did not appear until Thurs
day. Since then he has been in condition
to convey the infection to anyone who came
near enough to get the faint of the contagion.
Never having been vaccinated SO that it took
effect, he has the most malignant type of the
disease and yesterday the eruption was in

The changes on the Consolidated railroad
for the summer are nearly completed and are
as follows The steamboat train will be put
on to run in connection with the New York
boats that land at Belle Dock The Nara
gansett Pier train arrives here at $40 and
leaves New York at 2 O'Clock and leaves New
port at 415 The Hartford express train
leaves New York at 4:3O arrives here at
GAO. Leaves here at 6:45 and arrives in
from Hartford in the morning leaving Hart
ford at 9:15 a. m. !; leaves here at 1915 and
gets to New York at lis.
The Adams express train, with passenger
car attached, leaves New York at $50 p. m. !;
leaves here at 1918 and gets to Springfield at
2:3O. This train leaves Springfield at 1857 !;
leaves here at 4:2S and gets to New York at
6:57.
The sos a. m. train for New York leaves
here after June five minutes earlier than
heretofore.
On the Air Line road the only change

leave at and connect here with the o'clock

put on June 6. It is contemplated that the

be an hour earlier. This will necessitate
running the train out of New Haven for

Gerritt s. Miller of Peterboro, N. Y,

cent record of one of his animals to the
Country Gentleman: I selected her in Hol-
land during my visit to that country in 1879;
as three-years old she won the first prize at
the Rotterdam fair, and at five years old won
the first prize at our State fair last fall. She
began her milk record March Goth, and soon
ran up to 60 pounds with two milkings. per
day, when we began milking her three times
daily, and feeding an extra allowance of
grain. During the past seven days she has
given 81, SO IL, 50 1-2, So 3-4, 81, IS and 81
pounds of milk, which equals 591 3-4 pounds,
or trifie over 81 IA pounds per day for
seven days. Fifteen of the consecutive milk
ings did not vary over two pounds, one from
another, ranging from % to 80 pounds. This
has been done on dry feed; the COW had not
mouthful of slop or wet feed during the
week.
Another COW of the same breed owned and
imported by an association at West Edmes-

End of EX-COngressman KenOgg's Law
suit.
The case of LIE Fevre against ex-Congress-
man Kellogg, which has been on trial at New
York in the United States Court before
Judge Shipman and jury, for week past,
was ended last evening by verdict of the
jury in Mr.. Kellogg's favor. The suit has
been in the New York courts for about
nine years, and was brought by one LIE
Fevre, of the former firm of Whittal, LIE
Fevre Co., to recover about $4,000
which Mr.. Kellogg had collected in sundry
suits against him, and paid over to his clients.
There were certain other suits against him,
on Great Brook county claims SO called, in
which Mr.. Kellogg's clients authorized him to
pay portion of the money collected to LIE
Fevre. Under this authority, Mr.. Kellogg
pa him 10, 400 and odd dollars, about $500
more than LIE Fevre had any claim
for. After Mr.. Kellogg had paid his clients
and had paid the above sum to LIE Fevre by
their authority, LIE Fevre then set up claim
that one-half of the claims already paid to
the clients should be paid to him, and sued
Mr.. Kellogg for it in New York nearly nine
years ago. The suit has been tried several
times, and though Mr.. KeIogg's clients ap-
peared in court and testified, Mr. KELLOGG
paid their claims in full, and he produced
their receipts, and though LIE Fevre's own
counsel IN the suits In this State testified that
Mr.. Kellogg paid all that was agreed to be
done and more too, New York city Jury
once found a verdict of $1,000 against him.
MIR. Kellogg appealed the case to the general
term, and the court unanimously set aside
the verdict The case was then taken to the
Court of Appeals, and that court dismissed
the appeal. The case then came up for |
new trial last year, and Mr.. Kellogg becom-
ing satisfied that he could not get Justice in |
the New York City Court, removed the case |
last December to the United States Circuit |
Court, John O'Neill, Esq, of this city, acting |
as counsel in that proceeding. It has-now |
been tried in that court with the above re- |
suit. Mr.. Kellogg may well be congratulated I
on the end of this long, vexatious litigation.
