After the Destructive Raccoons.

Farmers in Sharon complain of frequent raids on their hen-roosts Fully $200 worth of poultry has recently been lost It has been learned that 'coons are doing the mis- chief and one was shot recently As other poultry has disappeared since the death of this one marauder, it is wisely held that other 'coons must exist hereabouts with a fondness for poultry. So a grand hunt by moonlight or torchlight is projected by the farmers and summer boarders. Much sport is anticipated, as well as good bag of game and toothsome 'coon supper.

cnA1rP1oN1Ne THE ARMY.

An Outsider Interferes With the Crowd
 That Was HOOting at tt1aeArmy-Three
 Members Suspended Until Their
 Characters Can be Examined.
 A tall, muscular gentleman wearing tall white hat shook his brawny fists violently at a pack of boys on the Green last evening and calling them rather undignified epithets told them they ought to be ashamed of themselves and threatened to beat them all unless they desisted from their attempts to mob the six intrepid men who compose the New Haven delegation of the Salvation Army The tall gentleman rushed headlong into the crowd His white hat could be seen bobbing about, diving down in the darkness and then bob ping up serenely again in another place, and all the time the mob was venting it's spite in cries from hundred throats, frantic pushes and rushes The mob, however, was not organ ized, and the white hat was soon crowned with victory The muscular efforts of it's stalwart owner had made room for the flag and it's owners to pass. The crowd fell back and the Army's valiant champion had earned the hatred of New Haven's young hoodlum element. The champion shook hands with a friend and remarked that he was interested in the Army and had come up from New York to see that they were fairly treated. ''I was in the Army three years and I am ready to go through the fight again" he remarked ener- geticaIly. "These young rufians here who have been hooting at the Army on the steps, oagging them, insulting them, and joining hands, boys and girls, in the effort to make trouble, ought to be severely punished"
 The crowd was more orderly last evening at the Army's meetings than on Sunday evening, but they were not quiet by any means It is certain that they were pretty peaceable and did not beat their drums or tambourines or attempt to sing until they were safely in the middle of the street and protected by the policemen. At the Union street resort the police did effective work in clearing the street of disorderly elements.
 Three members of the Army were suspend ed last night owing to rumors that their moral characters were not what they should be- One of the three is young colored man and the others are women. Captain Hunter is determined to make full investigation of the scandalous reports and says the offending ones will not be allowed to participate in the meetings until the charges have been proven false, or in the event of their being sustained they will be expelled from the ranks.

That Boulevard Sewer.

The plan formed by Mayor Lewis and the selectmen for the much talked of boulevard sewer along West river is to build the sewer in sections, commencing at Oyster Point and working up the river. The remaining sec tions can then be completed as funds are available. It is thought that work may be begun before long. Of the sewerage bonds which the legislature authorized the city to issue, $10O, ,OOO were set apart for the boule- yard project. This sum therefore is practi eally at the disposition of the city now, and, although only about one-third of the esti mated cost of the whole improvement, will enable very respectable beginning to be made
