Accident at Gu1lfOrd.
A Freight Train DerafIed-A Mfspla

Freight Train DeraiIed-A Misplaced Switch.
 The express freight train on the Shore Line railroad, leaving New London at 3:15 a. m., went off the track at 9:3O yesterday forenoon short distance from the Guilford depot. No one was dangerously hurt. The switohman threw the switch for the wrong train He supposed, as it approached, that it was the night freight and opened the switch to let it run on the siding where the night freight usually stops till the early passenger train from New Haven passes. But it was the express freight delayed, which he supposed had gone along and which does not stop at Guilford. The latter was going at a rapid rate. The consequence was this train, Conductor Beach of Fair Haven, ran on the siding, and reaching the end of the side track, plunged of upon the ground, and thus the accident happened
 The locomotive left it's forward trucks and ran along for some distance. The freight cars were piled up behind in indeseribable confusion, Five or six of them were wholly urecked. The main track was blocked. To bring to this city the passengers on the train due here at 9:20, 8 special train was sent out and the passengers were transferred. They did not get here till about II o'clock. A wrecking train was sent out from here. The damage done is estimated at from $1, to $2,OOO. The east bound forenoon express train messengers from this city were sent to MiddIetovn over the Air Line road and from there down on the Valley road to it's junction with the Shore Line road at Saybrook, thus enabling them to get around the wreck at Guilford. The engineer of the wrecked train i5 named Knowles. He belongs Tn New London. Neither the engineer nor fireman left the locomotive Both were severely shaken up. A brakeman was injured but not seriously.

A Delightful Entertainment at the
 Rooms Of the Stationary Engineers As-
 sOclatiOn No. 2, of New Haven.
 At the cosy and cheerful rooms of the sta tionary engineers of this city g number of la dies and gentlemen gathered last evening. The occasion was the first honorary members' night, and the exercises were highly enjoy able. W. H. Wakeman, jr., made few in troductory remarks in which he extended 8 hearty welcome to those who were present. The Glee club consisting of Frank King, leader, James Parsons, James McLough- lin and E. P. Root gave 8 very fine rendering of 8 four part glee. Mir. Thomas P. Pemberton, of Brooklyn, l.. l., was introduced as the reader of the evening. He chose for his first selection Mark Twain's "Our Guide in Genoa and Rome,'' and his droll and pleasant rendering of the piece called forth great laughter and applause. MT. Parsons, of the Glee club, gave German comic song in good style. He was warmly appIauded. Then followed a programme of comfortable length, embracing selections by Mir. Pemberton, songs by the Glee club and MT. Parsons, MT. E. A. Foster bringing the exercises to close by few pleasant re- marks. Mir Pemberton gave ''Fhe Lost Heir,'' by Hood, and "The Gridiron," by Samuel Lover and "Perkins' visit to the dentist,' by Mir. Bailey of the Danbury News. This latter piece gave full scope to the fine elocutionary powers of the reader. He introduced several characters and convulsed the audience with laughter. Altogether the entertainment gave eminent satisfaction to all who were present and the engineers are to be congratulated upon having disposition to get up such entertainments and such fine rooms to have them in.

Board of Education.

Increase Of Tuition for Non Residents Pro- pOsed-The Sanitary Condition of SchOOI Buildings Consfdered-Other matters of Interest.
 meeting of the Board of Education was held last evening; present, Messrs. Welch (preslding), zunder, Strong, O'Brien, Plun- kett, Parmelee and Pond.
 MT. zunder proposed to increase the tuition fee from $40 per year to $6o per year for non-residents.
 The matter was laid on the table until the next meeting.
 It was reported that the census in the school districts showed 16, 800 scholars be- tween the ages of six and fourteen years, a gain of 22O over last year.
 TheEe was complaint made that there was disease apparent in the German-English and Fair street schools. and the matter was dis cussed at considerable length. The state ment was that the janitor's child was sick from scarlet fever.
 MT. Parmelee suggested and moved that the Committee on School Buildings examine the German-American and other buildings in regard to the sanitary condition of the same. This subject came up from 8 case of  American school building or Germania hall, in the family of the janitor.
 Mr. Parmelee thought it wrong to keep a school in this building and that the rooms should be kept differently.
 Mr Zunder said he had never before heard any complaints in regard to the sanitary con- ditions of this building
 Mir Parmelee suggested thorough inspec- tion of the building. He said that in an ln- vestigation made by himself he was dissatis. fled with the condition of furnaces, closets, etc.
 Mr. Zunder suggested that new district be created to include the Cedar, HalIock and Welch schools, and 8 portion of Washington and Webster schools by this arrangement the Washington basement and double sessions in the Webster school could be dis pensed with. The Committee on Schools with the superintendent were instructed to prepare plan for new district.
 Some fine specimens of penmanship and composition by pupils in the various schools were exhibited by President Welch, and the exhibits were by scholars not over twelve years of age.
 Mr. O'Brien, from the Committee on School Buildings, reported that the compile tion of woodwork in the new training school building had been contracted for, which in- cluded bookcase.
 Mr. Zundsr said that when the training school was ready for occupancy it would be proper to hold some exercises at which the Board of Education and prominent citizens could be present.
 President Welch stated that loan to meet the monthly payments falling due next Tues day, amounting to $20, 900, had been provided for. Adjourned.

How a 'Rnt BaitiDG' was Given In
 This City Yesterday Under Difficulties.
 Under the auspices of William mauder. the Congress avenue liquor dealer, rat bait ing was given in this city by Dick Toner agent for Harry Jennings, New York, pro- fessional rat catcher, dog -fancier and sport ing man in general. The rats and pits were imported from New York. A number of tickets were sold to students and others. The management of the enterprise en- deavored to 'fhire hall'' without Success. Detective Brewer got on the scent and Dr. Adams for the society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and Judge Deming protested against having the exhibition given. From Lamar block the caravan of rats went to Daggett street. near the frog shop, but that place had to be abandoned. After roaming about for about two hours, followed by lot of boys and 8 few hungry dogs, the New York sportsman pitched his pit in the meadows on Kimberly avenue near the bridge. At about 4:45 p. m. the show began. Nearly 500 were present. George W. Fletcher's dog killed rats in 35 seconds, W. J. Doberty's dog 10 rats in 59 seconds, John Clancey's dog rats in 29 seconds, and Hemingway & Bradley's dog g rats in 10 seconds. The last dog won. Ths curtain fell on lot of dead rats. and the re-thirsty crowd went away satisfied
