No Place for Banco Men,

i Several days ago two New York banco players appeared in this city. They went in to Cooks wagon shop, on Fair street, and said that they had piece of hair cloth, and know. ing him to be judge of such goods desired that he should go and look at it. MT. Cook in the kindness of his heart agreed to go, and the parties ''steered" up George street until they reached Petrie's bakery, when they went to the rear and under shed, where they commenced to manipulate cards. trying to induce Mir. Cook to bet. The steerers finding that MT. Cook had no money "shook him" without delay. MT. 0. gave Chiei Webster description of the men, and the detectives were directed to look for them. Yesterday they discovered the parties or Chapel street and took them before the chief, who told the parties that he would send officers to the train with them who would see them of, and if they appeared in New Haven again they would at once be arrested and sent of. They seemed glad to get of SC easy. One gave his name as Bill Jones and the other as John smith, both of which were undoubtedly fictitious.

The universality of applying Electro Mag netism as a curative of alI forms of chronic diseases is only 8 question of time, and req son for this assertion can be given from scientific standpoint, through logical reason ing. The only hindrance to the universal adoption of Wilsonia is that all who apply it expect to be affected by the magnetic cur rents in similar manner and with the ssme prompsness which can never be. Suscept- bilities to the magnetic influences are varied, and one of the most remarkable features of this treatment in our experience IS the marked difference exhibited by individuals in this respect, hence the greater rapidity of cure in some than in others. If the susceptibility to the magnetic influence is slow, yet by con- stant, persistent infusion of magnetic cur rents disease must eventually yield the case Is cur able Wilsonia Magnetic Appliances have been last fuI in curing all forms Of disease. We do earnestly invite all chronic sufferers from the country, as well as those in our city, to visit our ofice we have seldom known person who was nos 1aToEaply mp ressed after full investigation and explanation re- garding the Wilsonia.

Lecture at North Church Chapel.


 The lecture by the Rev. Dr. Hawes last evening was of the same interesting charac ter as the five preceding ones. His familiar talk" took his hearers from the city and Lake Lucerne to Lake Zee, Lake Zurich and city to the ancient town and city of Nice. Lucerne Lake he described as shaped like 8 cross, each arm of wonderfully picturesque beauty and all the enclosing shores dotted with places of much historic interest. The chapel of William Tell and it's surroundings were briefly told of, the wonderful paintings inside the covered bridges also, and the great "Thorwaldsen Lion' cut in solid rock, 8 monument of the bravery of the famed Swiss Guard" At Nice are seen traces of the occupation of the place 3S B. c. The crooked, castle guarded river Rhine, it's high cliffs and mountain vine-clad shores, fair Bingen, famous Heidelberg, Johannis- berg and their history were all graphically pointed out and made into delightful story. The last place reached was the city of Co., lOQne,

To be Repeated.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 In reply to the very complimentary re- quest that appeared in your columns the other day that would at an early day repeat my recent lecture on the Luray Caverns, let me say that it will give me pleasure to meet the wishes of my friends. In few days I shall probably receive new series of re- markable views just taken in that wonderful grotto. An exhibition of these, together with those already thrown on the screen at the Sheffield Hall, and also a number of views of Mammoth, Wyandot and other noted caves, might prove attractive to those who are interested in subterranean scenery. If suitable arrangements can be madeI shall be happy to exhibit them to the public.

Cnrfoua Aceident-A A Horse's Plunge

"A
 Early last evening as horse car had just turned from Grand street into State street one of the horses caught it's foot between the paving stones and commenced kicking, and finally raised the trace chain from the pole
 and broke away from the car and running a short distance plunged down the cellar stairs at Enscoe's auction rooms on State street near the Madison House. He struck the railing and went head over heels down. A crowd of people soon gathered at the spot.
 The other horse ran with the other to the
 railing where it got loose, but it was seized and held. The animal which pitched down into the area was supposed to be badly hurt. It was penned in and kicked violently. MT. Enscoe going down the inside way opened the cellar door, which gave the imprisoned horse more freedom, and man named John Carlsen, living at 13 Clay street, Fair Haven, in trying to hold the animal was kicked iu the thigh. He was taken to Dr. Tyler's office in the Tontine, where his wound was at- tended to. No bones were broken and he was sent home in a hack. Superintendent Graham and MT. Hart of the horse railroad were on the ground assisting in the case. A rope was hitched to the horse to pull it up 1 to the sidewalk, and ashes were scattered OF the steps to give the animal foothold. All | hands took hold of the rope and the horse I walked up the steps and was found to be but little hurt. It was sent back to the stable.

Alleged FalsehOod.

The New York Tribune yesterday pub lished dispatch dated New Haven, Feb. 15, reading as follows: s'Yale College students have written letter to William M. Evarts, urging him to come to New Haven to combat the free trade utterances of Professor Sum. ner. Yale is in ferment over the recent at- tack of Professor Sumner on MT. Evarts, and it is probable that demand will be made upon the college authorities to provide more liberal instruction in political economy. At present only free trade is taught. Protec- tionist documents are being eagerly sought and read by the students. There is some thing like little rebellion not improbable" {"
 It is said by those qualified to know that there is nothing in it, and the students have not written to Mir. Evarts. On the contrary, it is asserted that the college is displeased at the underhand methods employed by parties unknown to influence the students against Professor Sumner. The entire Tribune statement is spoken of as without reasonable foundation, and the students in fact feel az grieved at the attacks upon Prof. Sumner.
