Thursday morning at Il o'clock Walter w. Bstts, of 37 Bradley street, took 8 dose of tincture of aconite and died in less than half an hour. He took it by mistake for some medicine he bad for chronic diarrhoea. Phy- sicians were sent for at once, but the poison did it's work before they arrived. The de- ceased was tbirty-six years old and for four teen years had been subject to chronic diarrhoea. About year ago he lived in An sonia and lost his shop and dwelling house by fire. The loss greatly affected his mind and his insanity became so marked that his wife had him removed to the insane retreat at Middletown. From there he went with his wife to Philadelphia where it was hoped his health would improve. It did for while but then he grew worse and he and his wife removed to this city.

 BOSTON IDEALS.
 When this excellent troupe comes to New Haven it is sure of large audiences and we'll pleased ones, too. Next week they will give two performances at Peck's, Fra Diavolo and The Weathercock. The Weathercock is new piece which was sung for the first time at Providence by the Ideals last Tuesday and made very good impression. The cast includes Messrs. H. c. Barnabee, Tom Karl, W. H. McDonRld, George Rockingham, Misses Marie Stone, Mathilde Phillipps, Liz zis Burton and Mamie Siegfried. The Bos- ton Herald says of the piece: The opera is bound to be success It is waltzy, has 8 dozen or so of catchy airs and in it's ibretto is bright and sparkling, the few ''gags" be- ing well worked in and quick to be discerned. The duet by MT. Mcdonald and Miss Stone in the first act, as well as Miss Stones solo, '"Ssy. why do the flow CTS look so fair?' were received with great favor, an encore being de- manded. From that point the opera WAS frequently applaudsd. Ttere is nothing in ''The Weathercock" which suggests any pre- vious opera; in fact, it's plot is entirely new and original The Providence papers speak favorably of the new opera. The sale of seats opens at 257 Chapel street next Mon day.

The Emauc1patIon rrocIamation.

Since the great proclamation, slavery is not supposed to exist in the United States. Yet it does exist everywhere. We are all slaves, more or less, to our passions. habits, notions. Worst of all, we are slaves to disease, and tyrannical master it is. You want to be free. You ought to be free, if you are going to get any enjoyment out of the summer months You can be free from summer complaints, if you issue an emancipation proclamation in the name and by the authority of Perry Davis Pain Killer. These diseases tremble in the presence of the great remedy, and scamper away as before magicisn's wand.
