The subcommittee of the Board of Public Works, consisting of Messrs. Pond, Feldman and Engineer Hill, met last evening, MT. Feldman presiding, for the purpose of con- sidering the petition of the CenterVille horse railroad to place cent CT rails instead of side bearing rails on their Elm street extension. Cornelius Pierpont was heard in favor of the proposed rail, and on his statement it was voted unanimously t o grant the petition, the height of the tread not to exceed seyen- eighths of an inch.
 It is said that this rail is easier for car riages crossing it than the side bearing rail at present in use. The fact will be demonstrat- ed when the new track is laid.

The Committee on Water held meeting in the Mayors office last. evening to consider the petition for public well and pump at the junction of Congress avenue and Washington street. Aldermen Coffee and Kelley and Councilman Perkins were the only members of the committee present out of nine, al- though Councilman Brown came in af- ter the committee had transacted their bus. mess and retired and being informed that the committee had voted to purchase the land and part of the building belonging to John Starr for the purpose of a public well and pump which will include small park, de- clared that he should protest against such ae- tion on account of the absence of a quorum of the committee. The iand proposed to purchase is about 18x12 feet and takes in a part of what was No. engine house under the old volunteer fire system. What the re- suit of the action of the committee will be remains to be seen It is evident that there will be parliamentary tilt over the matter when it reaches the Court of Common Coun-

Il was that of Miss Lizzie Gaffney, a New Ha ven girl, who sang several numbers on tht programme with wonderful power and feel | ing. The concert throughout was excellent l and did infinite credit to Mir. Bristol, t' whose admirable method so many profes s1Dnnls owe much of their success.

Disease of various kinds is often only the sign that nature is trying to remove the disturbing cause. A remedy that gives life and vigor to the blood, eradicates scrofula and other impurities from it as Hoods Sarsaparilla undoubtedly does, must be the means of preventing many diseases that would occur without it's use.

He took with him the Saturday sales amounting to from $50 to $60. His friends suspect foul play, but the firm think very differently. The last seen of him in the city was at the City Hotel on Monday morning, between 12 and o'clock, in an intoxicated condition. He treated several parties and said he was going to Texas.

The Parade of the Great Ferepaugh show
 Tomorrow,

The Parade of the Great Forepaugh Show
 To-morrow,
 The beautiful pageant Illustrating the 'De- parture of Lalla Rookh from Delhi' will be seen upon our streets, in connection with the parade of the Great Forepaugh Show. The story it illustrates is that of the young King of Bucharia, who courts the Princess Lalla Rookh in disguise, on journey. Of course, all our readers know the story of the lovely Maid of India, as told in the beautiful poems of Moore, viz. ''The Yelled Prophet, Paradise and the Peril D "The Fire Worship ers' and ''The Light of the Hare1n." The lovely Princess gets in love, her old attend ant, Fadladeen, growls, and the Prince is re- vealed at last in the palace, at the close of the journey. To get all this into circus pa geaut, to secure girls to fit the poetry and dresses beautiful enough to fit the girls, and to secure the sshandsomest woman in Ameri- ca" te personify the lovely Princess-even by the tempting offer of $1O,OOO for her ser- vices-has required the expenditure of a great deal of time and money. In addition to the appearance of the famous ten thousand dollar beauty who represents 'Lsl1a, and is the ideal of an East India Princess, there is also to be seen ''Hindee, the lovely 'tZelika, the 'HPeri" and the charming ''Nourmahal,' ? resplendent in Oriental garb and who, as the 1 poet tells us, is
 Happier now, for all her sighs, As on his arm her head reposes,
 She whispers him, with laughing eyes, Remember, love, the Feast of Roses. ," Twenty-Five royal elephants appear in this princely pageant, and all the ladies of the court of the Delhi, accompanied by Tartari- an and Cashmerean maids of honor.
 'sThe valleys loveliest all assembled, All the bright creatures, that like dreams Glide through it's foliage and drink beams Of beauty from it's founts and streams, And all those wandering minstrel maids Who lsave-how can they leave ?-the shades
 Of that dear valley, and are found To be singing in gardens of the South. There is also to be seen in this magnificent spectacle the guards of the Great Kedar Kahn and goodly delegation of Rajahs, Mogul the parade of the exhibition, with it's massive l and ornate chariots, it's musical bands, Cleo patra pageant, handsome horses, droves of
 camels, living lions loose in the street, and l all the adjuncts of the Great Forepaugh Show,

The New Court Bui1ding.

Considering PIans-A Gallery Proposed.
 The committee of the New Haven county bar and county commissioners held a meet ing in Clerk Ingersoll's office yesterday af- ternoon to consider plans for the additions to the court building to be erected on the lot recently purchased from the. Hoadley estate. No definite plans were agreed upon, although Commissioners Jacobs presented 8 rough draft of plan which proposes room for the Superior court with galleries for the cenven- fence of spectators, giving them more than double the capacity now provided in the old court room. It is also proposed to have the room well lighted and ventilated, making it in fact model court room and adapted to all the purposes for which it is intended. The law building on the front of the lot will re- main as 1t is for the present, and a considers ble revenue will be received by the county therefrom. In course of time should the needs of the county require it that building will also be removed and an additional build ing will be added, which will be in conformi. ty to the front of the present court building.

FoRTY-NINE.
 | On Saturday afternoon and evening of this
 week Lizzie May Ulmer will appear at the New Haven Opera House supported by the l Palmer Miner company. The play to be
 presented is Mckee Rankin's latest and great
 est success entitled s"49" The plsv is colorod with sunshine and darkened by gloom
 but altogether is one of the most enioyable
 ever given on the American stage.
 FAUST.
 This evening the second presentation of ''Gounod's Faust" will be given in CarIps 1 Opera House for the benefit of the Yale Boat club. While the play on Monday evening was excellently rendered it is certain that on the second rendition the few rough parts in the opera that appeared on the first even ing will be so far smoethed over and toned down that the company will appear more in the light of professionals than as amateurs It IS really meritorious performance and should receive the unqualified support of the friends of the Yale navy and all others inter
 ested in home talent and frst-class opera.
