struck by a Bullet.
AMt. Carmel nIIikman wounded.

NIt, Carmel N1illman Wounded.
 Henry Galligan is respectable and well known man residing in Mt. Carmel He has milk route in this city and comes here early each morning to serve his patrons, and re- turns to his home a few hours later when his work is accomplished. On Monday morning on his homeward trip, when about two miles and half from this city, in the vicinity of, Hamden Plains, bullet fired from some un- known quarter perforated the top of the milk wagon and struck MT. Galigan on the head, inficting painful but not dangerous wound MT. Galligan was stunned for few moments, and was attended to by the driver of the Cheshire express, who fortu- nately happened to be near. MT. Blake, brother-iR-law of the wounded man, who lives near the scene of the occurrence, was this city to the office of Dr. Dibble, who dressed the wound. No information has been obtained of the one who fired the shot. The theory at present is that some one on one of the many hills near by was out prac- tieing shooting, and stray shot from this source occasioned the accident. MT. Galli- gan, although suffering from the effects of the wound, attends to his business, coming to and going from the city daily.

Barnum,s 1881 Exhibition.


 Fully 1000 persons witnessed the first per formance of Barnum's great aggregation for 1881 at the Madison Square Garden, New York, Monday evening, and a surging throng of 3, GOO could not get in. Electric lights brilliantly illuminated the gay scene, and the vast building was flooded with light. The combined shows of Barnum, Bailey and Hutchinson are all shown in one, and there are three ring performances going on simul- taneously. Mir. Barnum may well take pride in the great exhibition. The prince of show men seems to outdo in this effort all previous successes. The evenings entertainment was opened with glittering procession, in which mounted knights and danes, bespangled Turks borne in palanquins strapped on the backs of elephants and camels, Chinese man darins and other persons figured. When these had withdrawn the ringmaster introduced the most notable curiosities, including the baby eliphant. Six Ukraine and Trakene stallions, splendid specimens of the equine race, were drilled by MT. Dockrin in one ring, while in another Mir. Charles White persuaded several common oxen to do things that oxen of con servative habits could not be induced to at tempt. A remarkably clever double horizon tai bar act was performed by the Boisset Brothers in the middle ring, while other feats were done by Geyer and Ashtin and two Hungarian jugglers in the other circles. Frank Melville, t' Don'' Gerinemo Bell, Mme Elise Dockrin and Mime. Cordona were seen in bare back riding. The doings of troupe of Japanese jugglers elicited a fair share of applause. One of the most in- teresting and certainly most amusing incl dents was the drilling of 20 trained elephants in military evolutions The animals acted with astonishing docility. Among the many other features of the long programme were intrepid trapeze acts by Hawley and Baisley and three young women, Heap for life, 2 by Lottis Baldwin, and leaping by we'll trained corps of tumblers.

Interesting Occasion |.

correspondent (G. S.) says: At the morning service in the North church Sunday, on the occasion of its annual contrib ution to the Western Education and College society, Dr. Hawes introduced Rev. Wm. M. Brooks, president of Tabor College, Iowa, to set forth the claims of the society and of Tabor Col lege as an illustration of the good and i'm portant work done in the vast field of our western country. The families of the early settlers were large. The children of those families are the young men and young wom- en who there compose the present generation. On their Christian character and education rest the hopes and the destiny of this new and larger part of our common country. To preserve the good already done, we must not only sustain but increase our offerings and our efforts. Full return for the outlay comes back in the better cultivation of the land and the preservation of peace and good or der, without which happiness would come to an end. He held the attention of the aud fence closely till past the usual time of clos ing. The contribution baskets, both by the money put in and the slips of paper for the speaker to call at persons houses for more, showed de D interest in the society's work and a still deeper interest in Tabor College It's president appears the right man to secure the $5O, 900 endowment called for.
 ART00dD10 bO uOLAC0 gwen III the pastor in the afternoon preached from the words in the thirty-seventh psalm ''In Gods light we shall see light" Enlighten- ment obtained by study and differing modes of education is of high and enduring impor- tance. This light in no way conflicts with or intercepts the dawning of Gods light into the soul and mind of man. The purity ard power of Gods light furnishes the needed foundation and support of all human goodness and truth Effort to in struct and the thirst for truth has Omnipo- tence on it's side. With such power opposing darkness is turned to shadow or entirely dis appears, and wrong dies without hope or possibility of resurrection.
 The claims of Christianity and full power to free us from sins galling yoke, to give in it's stead peace and happiness to our world, were illustrated in 8 way most instructive and interesting Our weeks work will be easier and better done for such light shed upon our path, and a new supply be gained on each returning Sabbath.

 The Orange case of Aimes vs. Hovey is still pending before Judge Hovey in this court.

The case has been on for seV- eral days and bids fair to occupy the courts attention for week more.

Reported Prize Fight.

A Norwich dispatch says: A seemingly well-founded report comes from Mystic Island summer resort on the Sound about ten miles east of New London, that prize fight was fought there few days ago between Billy Edwards and Mike Donovan. The pu- gilists. accompanied by sixty or seventy-fve of their sporting friends from New York and Boston, arrived at the island in a large tug boat from the former city. They went at once to business, evidently fearing pursuit and detection by officers. A ring was formed in the garden of the Mystic Island Hotel The party were on the island not over four and half hours, and in that time, it is said sixteen rounds were fought. Edwards had the best of the fight from the start. Dono- van was badly punished and threw up the sponge Mystic Island has been the scene of several prize fights in past years. The island is about fifteen acres in extent, and is less than half mile from the mainland. In the center, on rocky knoll, is a fashionable hotel. There is no other house on the island. The fight the othereday was watched by people from the mainland, who, however, were unable to tell what was going on.

As an extra freight train of sixteen freight cars and a caboose up on the Air Line road was going on to the bridge at Rock Fall, four miles from Middletown, about II o'clock Monday night, the car next to the tender jumped the track. The engine went over safely, but seven cars were precipitated into the river, fifty feet below the bridge, and eight others were derailed, leaving only one car and the caboose on the track. No person was injured Two wrecking trains were at work yesterday. aRd it was expected the track would be cleared by last evening Meantime the passengers and baggage were transferred around to cars that bring them to MiddIetown, thus causing only slight delay.
