sequel of n Fair victory.

Saturday evening select Earty of friends
assembled at the residence of DIR. Doherty on
Sylvan avenue, being invited by the Doctor
to banquet in recognition of their valuable
services in aiding his canvass for the case of
surgical instruments given TO the physician
polling the highest number of votes at st.
Mary's church fair. Most of those present
had been active in his interest at the fair,
and their efforts resulted in placing him far
in advance of his closest competitor. The
company were welcomed by Doctor Doherty
and his hospitable wife, who served fine
banquet after singing and dancing had been
INDUCED in for several hours. Mr.. Gildea,
in presenting the instruments, made a very
happy address, and as POSTMASTER called out
several of the gentlemen present, appro-
pirate remarks being made by Mr.. Moore,
Mr.. Byrne and Mr.. Mccormack. Miss
O'Donnell, Miss Mccain and Miss Bohan
rendered some excellent vocal music, their
singing being an especially pleasing feature
of the occasion. Miss Julia Cassidy, to
whose personal exertions the canvass largely
owed its success, gave some choice selections
on the piano, as well as vocal music, also
playing Accomplishments for Mr.. Gildea with
his violin and flute. The party broke up
shortly before midnight, carrying with them
pleasant memories of the hospitality of DIR.
Doherty and his estimable wife.

book, "a Tramp Abroad, $4,000, and out

Just now discovered that he had printed his
books on false basis that he ought to
have published the books himself, and
paid his publishers percentage for selling
them, instead of letting them pay him per-
centage for writing them. He said he had
written novel, and was preparing the
plates himself, and meant to put 1t out by
hiring the publishers. instead of being hired !;
and that all writers ought to take that position
that the book publisher was the hireling,
and not the author-and thus many of our
young men who have written well and hard
would have been in independent circum-
stances long ago.

A Slight Alarm over smallpox.

Young Marinan of Meriden, who was
seized with smallpox, died Friday and was
buried privately at midnight in the Catholic
cemetery in that city. His sad death created
much sorrow. There is considerable alarm
in Meriden over the presence of this dread
disease in the town, but the sanitary authori-
ties are on the alert, and only one case out of
over 10000 people now exists as far as is
known, and there is some doubt about that.
The wife of an employee of the Meriden Silver
Plate co., was reported taken down with it but
a prompt examination did not confirm it.
The Mayor of Meriden has ordered police
man stationed near the Marinan house to
prevent the inmates from coming out for
twelve days, by which time if any of them
has the disease it should make its appear
ance.
In New Britain everybody is getting vac
cinated, high and low, rich and poor, there
having been slight scare in that city.

Reformed Episcopal Church.


A Movement i'm this City for such an
Organization What an Interested
Party says About Tt.
For some time past there has been move
ment on foot to form new branch OF the
s'Church of Zion'' in this city, to be known
as the Reformed Episcopal church" This
movement, which started in New York city,
has spread to some extent south and west,
until the denomination includes within its
folds several bishops, a number of prominent
clergymen and several hourishing churches.
Learning that a movement was on foot to
establish a church of this order in New
Haven, COURIER representative called upon
gentleman interested in the movement,
when the following facts were brought out
understand that you know something of
the movement on foot to organize RE
formed Episcopal church in this city. Are
you willing I'd give me any facts for publica-
ton respecting it?
Certainly. There is no secret about it ex-
cept In this, that no definite action has been
taken which guarantees that the movement
will at present pass beyond the line of in
quiry as to its feasibility, and until that line
is passed those most interested prefer to avoid
the publicity that is temporarily given to
whoever starts new religious movement.
Moreover the matter NAV be deferred for
awhile, in which case they prefer not to lose
standing in the churches to which they now
belong.
Am to understand that this move eman-
ates from the Episcopal churches here
Not at all Connecticut churchmen are
very conservative. Their clergy as rule
have abstained from participation in those
practices which have prevailed to some ex-
tent in other dioceses and they are usually
men of broad and liberal views. Rectors
like Drs. HARDWOOD and Beardsley hold fast
to the sound doctrines received from the
fathers, and the younger clergy follow their
example Connecticut, too, is blessed with a
bishop of rare wisdom one who rules with
q gentle though firm hand, and the church
consequently prospers.
Who are they, then, who are interested in
this new departure?
They represent various sects, but chiefly
the Congregational, the Methodist and Epis-
copal. The movement was in contemplation
some five years ago, and but for the sudden
and untimely death of a gentleman of large
means and generous iberaity it
would have been started long before this.
There was no one to make his place good
the times were hard, and 1t was not deemed
wise to go ahead. But it has never been out
of mind People hav6thought about it and
discussed it, and many persons have been
found in sympathy with the tenets and sys-
tenn of organization of this church Final
ly number met together and canvassed the
matter Since then few representative
men have had a consultation with Rev. DIR.
Nicholson, the presiding Bishop, and prob
ably public service will be held here some
Sabbath before long, which all who wish
will have an opportunity to attend.
There seem to be number of feeble
