 George Gilbert, of Salem, had had some disputes with his wife about selling pig. He (Gilbert) said he would shoot the pig, and got his double barreled gun and went out to the pen and concluded not to shoot it, and went back to the house with his gun and threw it inside, butt first, and it was dis charged.

It is good because it gives univer- sal satisfaction. The hippodrome races, etc., are among the novel features which make the show so attractive to lovers of racing and other genuine sports. Coup is very popular with the amusement public, and he knows | how to cater to their taste.

Mr. Albert Nourse, 8 prominent citizen of New Britain, suddenly fell dead in the depot at Thompsonville, few minutes past 8 o'clock Monday evening. MT. Nourse, as vice president of T.

He arrived there at about o'clock Monday afternoon, and after doing his business he was anxious to catch the S:15 down train, and fearing that he would be late ran about half mile. After buying his ticket he turned to get a drink of water, and falling to the floor ex- pired almost instantly living only about two minutes. coroner's inquest was summoned, with L. H. Pease as foreman, and a verdict was rendered that death was caused by heart disease. MT.

A Question of Interest to Oystermen

At the October term of the Supreme Court of Errors of this State case will come up which will attract much attention from those who are interested in the oyster business
 Under the law the Fish Commissioners have the right to apportion to individuals certain sections in the waters of the State for oyster cultivation. The praties then stake off the section designated, and the law protects them from depredations. MT. James Elphick pro- cured large section in Greenwich harbor through several parties. Afterward he sold his rights to Mir. George w. Hoffman for several thousand dollars, Mir. Hoffman giving cash and notes secured by mortgage in pay ment. The property was sold in fee simple and MT. Elphick gave warrantee deed. MT. Elphick sued Hoffman to foreclose the mort gage, and the legal question was brought up that MT. Elphick could not convey grounds which had been assigned him by the State in fee simple; that he did not own the property, but only had a right to use it for the purpose of cultivating oysters, and that he could con vey only that right. AS there are probably thousands of acres apportioned by the Fish Commissioners in various waters of the State, the decision will be awaited with interest.

West Haven

Last Monday evening the dwellers in Ori- ental Park had gala time and turned out en masse. Vishno's orchestra from this city discoursed enlivening strains during the even ing on the lawn near the residences of Messrs. Hoggson and Paine. The grounds were bril- liantly illuminated with Chinese lanterns, and flags were suspended from the trees. In the meantime Mir. O. Howes, who is a.veteran at the business, had prepared clambake for the party, which numbered one hundred, and the bake turned out to be an excellent one, which the party soon demolished, doing am- pie justice to it. The festivities were kept up by adjourning to the pavilion on the beach, which consisted of music by the or chestra, singing and tripping the light fan tastic toe, both young and old joining in, un- til near midnight. The residents of the park are famous for getting up out-of-door even ing entertainments during their sojourn at the shore, and are always successful in car- rying them out.
 The sunken Steamer State of New York
 The body of Baggage Master Sellew, who was drowned at the time of the sinking of the State of New York Sunday evening has not been recovered. On Monday one of the deck hands went to the baggage room, where it was supposed the body was, but he could not find it. It is now thought that it may be in the ladies' cabin, where Mir. Sellew's wife was at the time of the accident.
 The freight on the sunken steamer is being removed to Goodspeed's Landing as fast as possible Most of it is ruined and all more or less damaged. It is believed that the loss to the company is fully covered by the ma- is oo fo1Iouvo.
