 The crops in New London county are looking fine. The prospect for corn is the best ever known. Early SO VII oats are very good, but the late sown are injured by rust.

Bridgeport stabbing Case.

Young Mans Attack Upon Ills Older
 Brother.
 William Haven brought his brother Walter home at o'clock Sunday evening. Walter was under the influence of liquor. A quar- rel followed between them at the house. Soon after William ran out with the blood flowing in torrents from his neck and crying out, ooh, you you will never cut any body again" Then Walter ran out, threw down a knife and disappeared. The wounded man was examined by doctor. It length had been made, extending from point opposite the right eye, and reaching nearly down to the shoulder. The cut on the neck was open so that three fingers could be inserted. Nine stitches were nec- essary to close the gash and the injured man bore the operation without hinching; once he made the remark that he did not care whether he lived or not. He was made as comfortable as possible, and it is thought that there is no danger of serious results unless inflammation sets in Had the cut been half an inch fur ther back on the neck it would have been fatal. The wounded man is. twenty-two years old his assailant is twenty. The weapon used was an old case knife which had recently been sharpened. William re- fuses to talk about the case and the cause of the stabbing is not known. Walter, who has borne a poor reputation, once having been arrested for burglary, cannot be found

Court Notes.

The latest report circulating about the police office is that "Pop" Hemingway has concluded his service as doorman and is to retire on a competent pension-not from the police department from widowed sister (Mrs. Captain Stone) who is in afiuent circumstances, and that the venerable gentleman will be handsomely pro- vided for during the remainder of his natural life. If this be the case the habitues of the City court will no more hear the O, yea O, yes o, yes, of Pop" Hemingway as he is familiarly known. All will unite in wish ing continued health and prosperity to the venerated and respected policeman who has for so many years gone in and out of the police office, diYed into the pockets of crim- inals and turned the key on them which has kept them in safety until the time for open ing of the court.
 It is said that already there are numerous applications for Doorman Hemingwsy's po- sition and that PatroIman Selleck stands the best chance to secure the position. MT Sel- leck has been many years on the force, is an old soldier and is fully competent to fill the position vacated by MT. Hemingway.
 In the City court yesterday morning Fred erick c. Hoffman was arraigned on 8 charge that he did not support his family. The evil dence showed that he had been married twenty three years and had seven children, all but ons of whom were self-supporting Several weeks ago he left his wife, and, as she claimed, had since contributed nothing to her support Hoffman testified that he left her for good cause, and had sent her all of his earnings that he could spare. Further than this he would say nothing. The court ordered that unless he furnished bonds in the sum of $20O to support his wife and infant child he be sent to jail for sixty days. Hoffman is 8 man of respectable appearance and is said to be the owner of some property.

A Justice Hearing.

The Case of MT. OsGOOd-The Sunday LAv. EnfOrcement-Case Put Over.
 MT. James H. Osgood, dealer in confec tionery and soda water in Howes' pavilion or the West Haven shore, was notified last Sat urday by Grand Juror Painter that he would not be allo we'd to dispense his goods on Sum day any longer. MT. Osgood determined to go on as he had been doing and consequently kept up his business last Sunday as usual and on Monday he was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Peck. He promised to appear before Justice Metcalf yesterday morning and was not compelled to give bonds. At the hour appointed few interested persons gathered at the justices residence. Mir. Osgood acci- but he came shortly after with the officers. He conducted his own defense and after court was over received many con- gratulations on his success as non-profes- sional, on the facts becoming known. He re marked as he took survey of the room and the faces present that it would be seen before he got through whether the fruit business was the only business carried on at the shore. Justice Metcaf regarded the accused blandly and everybody else smiled, including MT. Osgood himself as he sank back in 8 chair and called for 8 look at the complaint. The complaint read "James Osgood, where at Mr. Osgood entered an oral plea in abate- ment, stating it was not his name. This caused delay of some time while legal ad- vice was consulted at 8 distance from the court room by MT. Painter, the grand juror. The grand juror soon returned to his rescue, and advised the accused to put in plea of abatement if he so desired. but informed the court that no oral plea could stand in law. He further notified the court that if the ac- cused refused he would proceed with the trial The accused refused to plead. The justice made another survey of the room and then glanced at the audacious fruit dealer. The justice then demand ed the prisoners name time and again and was uniformly refused. Mr. Os- good became tired of the debate after an other half hour and admitted himself the defendant, and asked a continuance until next Thursday at a. m. The case was so continued. The only difficulty with the name on the complaint was that his second initial ''H." was omitted. Deputy Sheriff Peck be- came bondsman in the case. It is reported that most if not all engaged hitherto in Sun day business at the shore have made com mon cause with MT. Osgood to make the case a test case. The late disturbances at the shore, particularly the rowdyism which oc- cured there one night not long since, has
 been the prime cause of the new enforcement of the Sunday law.

NEW YORK. August '. Nearly three hundred thouaand shares of stock changed hAads to-day and at timOs especially during the morning. the eagerness of some holders to get rid of their stock almost threw the into state Of panic As consequences prices declined sharply al- most throughout the list and in there marked decline. The bears had full control in the early dealings and wiih the assistance of reports of strikes of the telegraph operators various roads including the Gould roads. failures and impending failures in New England and the embarrassment of bank in EIrira N. r., had trouble in forcing Ag urss down. As the day wore on and confirmation reports operators strikes received and the other unfavorable reports denied. the mar ket strengthened up again and under good covering by the sh orts toward the close prices rapidly as they had declined in the morning The specialties were irregualr.

The entertainment of Thursday night is a prolific subject for conversation. Every de- tail is arranged and it would seem as if every thing would pass of without confusion, although one thousand are expected to be present. New Haven, Hartford, Meriden, Middletown and Cheshire will all be repre- sented and 1t is safe to predict that the re- fusals of the local invited will be very few. The p. m train from the north and the $40 train from the south will stop within 8 fsw feet of the factory for the convenience of the arriving guests and the owl trains will also stop for those departing Friday morn ing. The factory is being rapidly trimmed and all the other detail is nearly completed. Company K, Second regiment, will escort Gov. Waller about half past eight o'clock to the factory. The music will be very fine. The invitations gave out before the list of names was completed and so some were un- avoidably left out. From the present indi- cations the speeches will be brief and pithy. To avoid a rush supper will be served all the evening.
