Humor in the stomacn.

Much of the distress and sickness attribu- ted to dyspepsia chronic diarrhoea and other causes is occasioned by humor in the stomach. Several cases, with all the charac- teristics of these complaints, have been cured by Hoods Sarsaparilla. Other cures effected by this medicine are so wonderful that the simplest statement of them affords the best proof that it combines rare curative agents and when once used secures the confidence of the people.

Winchesters vS. Peeks.


 The game of base ball between the hines from the Winchester Armory and Peck Brothers factory, Franklin street, at Hamil- ton Park yesterday was very finely played for amateurs. Neither nine scored run until the seventh inning, and at the end of the ninth inning the score stood tie, to 3. At the beginning of the tenth inning the catcher for the Peck nine, their captain. James Lillie, demoralized his forefnger and proposition to substitute Keenan from the Pecks in his stead was declined, Keenan hay ing formerly been professional. The game was then postponed. There were 300 or 400 spectators. George B. Card, captain of the Winchesters made three base hit in the seventh inning. The Pecks made. several double plays. Altogether the game was of an interesting character.

A gentleman in this city has undoubtedly guessed the secret of the innumerable postal cards asking information about persons who lived thirty or forty years ago or their heirs. The Legislature recently passed law re- quiring return to be made of all deposits in savings banks which had remained uncalled for or unnoticed for twenty years. These returns are probably all in the hands of the Controller of the State, and an entsrprising New York lawyer has conceived the idea of helping hunt up the missing persons or their heirs, rightly believing that if he succeeds in finding only few the gratitude of the heirs will make it a profitable venture. It is per. tectly legitimate business and, in fact, quite desirable thing to do.-From the Harttord COttrGnt

A Barn Belonging to James Andrews
 Burned.
 There was quite brilliant illumination in West Haven last evening, giving rise to rious reports in the city as to it's location. It proved to be frame barn on fire. It be- longed to Mir. James Andrews, cigar manu- facturer, and was located forty or fifty feet in the rear of his residence on the first cross street below the West Haven Horse Railroad company's stable, and the fire was believed to be of inoendiary origin. It broke out in the upper part of the structure. Connected with it was 8 shed which was pulled down by the neighbors to check the progress of the fire. About 300 people gathered and few pails of water were thrown on the fire, which, however, had such headway that efforts were confined to stopping it's progress. Mr. An drews' horse and carriage were saved. About ton and 8 half of hay was consumed with the barn. There was no insurance. There was policy on the barn which expired 8 few days ago and had not been renewed. Many people came up from the shore cottages to view the flames. The sparks at one time flew about lively.
