Death of Charles Ives.

The people of this city and vicinity will
 regret to learn of the death of Charles Ives,
 which occurred at West Haven last even- ing about o'clock. The deceased was a son of the late Charles Ives, Esq, who will be remembered as lawyer of much ability and who filled many positions in city and State. The father of the deceased died about three years ago, regretted by all who knew him. After the fathers death the son as- sumed the legal business which had been so successfully carried on by the senior Charles Ives for so many years, and his knowledge of legal methods gained under the tuition of an excellent teacher enabled him to continue a successful law business following as he did in the footsteps of worthy predecessor. He graduated from Yale college in the academic department, class of "A, and later from the Yale law school. After graduation he entered the law office of his father at 153 Church street and continued in the same place of business after his fathers death. During the summer months MT. Ives has passed his leisure time at the West Haven shore and 1t was here that he was stricken with the disease which proved to be typhoid fever in one of it's worst forms. He was attended by Dr. F. J. Whiktemore and other prominent physicians in council,
 but their efforts were unavaihng to stay the hand of disease which had taken such 8 deep hold upon it's victim. The deceased was gentleman of quiet, unassuming man ners and his death will be deeply regretted by large circle of friends. It is presumed that meeting of the bar will be called to take suitable action regarding his death. The time of the funeral will be noticed hereafter.

Prof. Moses Stuart Phelps.

 His Accidental Death While summerIng at MoOsehead Lake in Company With
 Rev. Dr. Newman Smyth and Prof. Hen
 ry w. FRrnam-His Life and History
 A Grandson of a Former Center Church
 Pastor.
 The sad intelligence wass telegraphed yes- terday that Professor Moses Stuart Phelps, of Andover Seminary, had been accidentally killed at Chamberlain Lake, Maine, on We'd nesday afternoon. Owing to the distance of the scene from telegraph station some delay was occasioned in sending news of the terrible event. Profess sor Phelps was summering in the Moosehead Lake country with Dr. Newman Smyth, pas tor of the Center church of New Haven. Professor Phelps was putting shotgun into a canoe when it was discharged, sending a heavy charge of buckshot into his head. He fell back dead.
 Professor Phelps and Dr. Smyth had been associated together at Andover Seminary and they had spent previovs vacations together Professor Henry W. Farnam, of Yale, had joined them to remain week with them in hunting and fishing. Afterwards Professor Farnam was to be joined by Messrs. Thomas Hooker, of this city, and Eli Whitney, jr., and the three young men were then to set out for trip to the lakes further north. Professor Phelps was graduate of Yale, class of '69, and sub sequently was a tutor at Yale and took a course of study in mental and moral philoso phy under President Porter. He distin guished himself in his class at Yale in con- position and took Townsend. His theolog- ical studies were completed at Andover where he graduated with distinction He afterward became an instructor in logic and mental science at Middlebury college, Vt. Later he went to Germany, and after pursuing 8 course of study there accepted 8 call to 8 chair in Smith college at Northampton, with which institution he has been connected as professor for about ten years. He contribut- theca Sacra, Princeton Review and other like publications. He was 8 man of varied attainments, an excel lent preacher and fine scholar. He had preached in New Haven in the last few years and was specially interested in Center church as g church, from the fact that his grand father, Moses Stuart, one of Andover's noted professors, was pastor of Center church. He had many friends in New Haven at large and at Yale. His age was about 36. His father is Professor Austin, n,,Phelps of Andover, and he was brother of the gifted writer Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, author of 'Gates Aiar." The above facts are obtained from Rev. s. H. Dana, now stopping in this city, who was fitted for college in the same class and was in the same class at Yale and at Andover with the ! deceased. Rev. Mir Dana breaches at Center church to morrow. Also among the classmates of deceased at Yale was Pro-
 
 ! and Hooker, of this city, left the city last Monday to join Professor FarnRm. They are reported to have arrived at Mt. Kinec House shortly before the accident occurred

OhiIdren's Excursion.

The Little Folks Go by Thousands to Pot
 IsIand TO-Day-Every Prospect for
 Fine Time.
 All the tickets have been given away and 1t was poor street corner, corner unworthy of the name, that did not have at least half 8 dozen little urchins hanging around it talk ing with great gusto about the great sail to Pot Island The inherent desire that buman beings have for becoming monopolists was very evident at these gatherings. for she tall est and brightest and sharpest of them got their fists full of tickets and every available resource was called forth to be used in trade for tickets. The boy who hadn't three was 2 boy of no enterprise. q perfect young Mi cawber. What the children expect to do with the surplus will be seen today. One boy said every ticket was good for dinner. He hoped to sat six dinners.
 About the time when the children were be- ing packed of to bed in their homes scattered all over the city, the wise and benevolent committee were seated upon the stage of the Grand Opera House perfecting the arrange ments for their holiday. Alexander Troup was chairman. The reports from the various sub-committees were heard. Everything seemed to have been provided. Messrs. Troup, Daley and Reynolds were appointed committee on finance to audit and pay bills. It was voted that MT. Troup be general man. ager of the excursion. There will be 5000 sandwiches, 10000 peaches, barrels of crackers, 900 cakes, 400 gallons of lemonade, 12 bushels of peanuts and 150 pounds of candy. The barge will leave Starin's dock at o'clock. A squad of police will be de- tailed by Chief Webster at the boat to keep off objectionable persons,
 The committee passed unanimous vote of l thanks to Clark Peck for his assistance and his generous donation of the stage of his opera house for the use of the committee to hold their meetings. The committee will hold another meeting at the town agents office next Monday evening at o'clock, l when bills will be presented and arrange | ments for next year made. The barge ar. | rived at the Starin dock at o'clock last \ evening. =
