The Hartford Mystery.

The Hartford mystery is not yet fully ex- plained, but the men arrested have been re- leased. The dead body of an old man of 76 was found in a house on Asylum street. Considerable excitement prevailed. It was found that he was Hervey Hills, the father of George F. Hills, cashier of the State bank, Hartford. Facts found out by the jur, of inquest showed that the deceased had been out riding and then had taken walk, and the next that was known he was found dead in a room which had just before been rented by a party of gamblers. The jury finally ad- journed to the police station to question the men under arrest as to their knowledge in the matter. After being sworn they, under ad- vice of counsel, said that they could give the names of the two men who first occupied the room on Asylum street, and having given two names were discharged, no evidence appear ing to connect them with the case, nor any sufficient ground for holding them. Deceased did not use alcoholic stimulants and never complained of heart disease. An autopsy will be held, awaiting the result of which the jury adjourned.

Bitten by . Black Spider.

Joseph Hommel, German baker in the employ of Mir. Strung, was bitten on the cheek last Saturday morning about o'clock, while at work in the bakery, as is supposed by black spider. In about a half hour the cheek began to swell, and in a few hours was puffed out like glass-blowers. He went to Q drug store where some ammonia was ap- piled, but this seemed to increase the pain, instead of diminishing it. He then went to a physician, but no remedy seemed immedi- ateIy effective. and he was confined to his bed two or three days. The swelling ex- tended all over the side of the face, over up- per lip and chin, and across the throat so fhat he could breathe only with difficulty. The remedies finally gained the mastery, and on Tuesday he resumed work. He was to have been married Saturday, but the cere- mouy was postponed till yesterday. B'Tstol PFsgss

Good Day and Track-Large Attendance.
 HARTFORD, Aug. 26.
 Especial to the JOURNAL AND CoURuR.1
 The races to-day, the last day, at Charter Oak Park were largely attended. The un- favorable weather prospect in the morning was succeeded by complete change for the better, and at the opening of the races the grand stand was well filled and large crowds were congregated about the grounds. It is not often that such rare good trotting and fast time is seen at any one meeting. As may be imagined gay scene was presented. The slowest time in any one heat was below 2:22. Everybody appeared interested and pleased. The first class to start was the 2:15. This race was hotly contested, Charlie Ford being the favorite in the pools. So So took the first heat with apparent ease, but bad break in the first quarter of the third heat was disastrous, she barely escaping being distanced. Ford won it after 8 sharp race with Hopeful. Ford took fourth heat by So So and Hopeful both breaking, and also fifth and decisive heat after hotly con- tested trial, the three horses coming nearly abreast down to the wire. The entries in the 2:15 race were:

 Of the race four heats were trotted, when | darkness ended the race, and it was under | stood that it would be finished in the morning Josephus won the first two heats in 2:194 and 2:2O. The third heat was won by John S. Clark time 2:214. The fourth was given to Pickard- -2:254-Clark being set back for running. Florence was distanced on the sec- ond heat.
