C.ptain Frank W. r1esIng.

Captain Frank W. T1esfnE,
 At his residence on Bishop street yesterday afternoon Captain Frank ". Tiesing died after long illness. Although he had been ill since the first week of last September, yet his condition was thought to be improving up to within few days by most of his many friends. His first illness was caused by a severe attack of malarial fever. After pass ing through 6 hard struggle with the disease lasting several weeks he passed through its critical stage safely and gave his friends the cheering hope that he would soon recover. But relapse came and his ssecond illness assumed typhoid form. Then as if that was not enough he was attacked with a severe liver complaint. Yesterday morning he was delirious. and was unconscious when he he died. A consultation of physicians was held, but they saw that his naturally strong constitution had been so shattered by the ravages of the fever that there was no chance of his recovery. He died surrounded by his family and few intimate friends.
 The deceased was just forty-four years old. He came to this country from Germany near ly thirty years ago and lived in New York for three years When he came to New Haven in 1859 he obtained work at spot known as "Ootton Hollow" few miles above Whit neville. Later on he was employed by Ell Whitney, of the Whitney Arms company. He was making pistols then. His close ap- plication to business commanded the atten- ton of his employers. They promoted him to the foremanship of |. the shop. He afterward took contract to do some of the concerns big jobs. When he was made su- perintendent of ths tool makers department he had much responsibility placed on him. bad aIo 7f nj Tan66IG and drawings of the large establishment, and was intrusted with other responsible matters. He possessed an extraordinary degree of me- chanical skill of an inventive order, which was brought out by his position. He invent ed several improvements on some Of the guns manufactured there.
 About three years ago he left the Whitney Arms company and became partner in the firm of Schollhorn $ Tiesing Manufacturing company, whose building is on State street corner of Wall street.
 He was an intimate friend of MT. Scholl- horn before he joined tho firm and retained his position as junior partner until the time of his death. The firm has built up thriv- ing business. Mir. TiesiDg had a direct supervision over about eighty men.
 Mr. Tesiag was elected captain of the City Guard to succeed Captain EDgel, and under his command the company prospered. It now has sixty-one members. Captain Tiesipg was well known among military men as being an especially able commander.
 The deceased leaves a wife and three chil- dren, all boys, the eldest beirg young man about nineteen and the youngest being a boy about two years old. He was 8 member of Connecticut Rock lodge, F. A. M, and Ger mania lodge, l. O. o. F. The funeral will probably be on Sunday.

The quality of the goods kept by Mir. Reynolds is absolutely pure. Our physicians use them and prescribe them in their practice. Among the best of our cit izens hundreds ara finding their way to Mir.

 MIR. MARsHALLS LECTURE.
 Those who were present at the First Meth odist church last evening-and large num- Der were present-passed a very pleasant hour among the beauties and glories of the Yellowstone National Park. The views pres- ented were very good and some of the more highly colored ones eIicited applause The beautiful Yellowstone lake and river, the geysers, boiling springs, cstaracts, rocks, hills, valleys and the elks that abound in the region, with many other Interesting things were presented and described in an accurate and graphic manner. Mir. MarshalI's talk was very good, and he worked in enough jokes to keep everybody thoroughly awake.
 DAvY CROCKETT.
 The large audience present at Carll's Opera House last evening attests the fact that ''Davy Crockett" is appropriately termed the ttevergreen play" Mir. Mayo's presentation of the rugged, noble. hearted backwoodsman proved, as usual, delightful treat to the audience. Whatever weaknesses there were in the support were overlooked, his pleasant and artistic performance being enough to make the entertainment very gratifying. Miss Charlotte Behrens, who sustained the character of Eleanor Vaughn, has the fault common to-young actresses of over acting When she can become more natural and make her attempts to do the part just right less noticeable, she will doubtless become very popular. as she is pretty, of nice figure and has undonbted talent. Other members of the company were about up to the usual standard and the entertainment as whole was one much enjoyed.
