vouur vvounenss Christian AssOcfa-
 tfon.Interesting Statement.
 The work of this association has often come before our readers during the now al- most four years of it's existence. In that
 time it has steadily grown in the confidence
 of the community, proving itself not only
 help but a necessity. The pleasant house on
 Wooster Square, where about twenty can
 find true home, under it's wise and efficient
 matron, represents but small though most
 important part of it's work. The last report
 of the association shows that several hundred
 are under instruction in various branees,
 such as bookkeeping, stenography, the use of the typewriter, as well as in more rudimen- tary studies. There are also several classes in needle-work, graded as to age and acquire ments. These last are held in the afternoon, the others in the evening as the pupils are employed through the day. The reading room and library afford enjoyment and profit to many others. The instruction is in gen eral voluntary, only two classes having paid teachers One young lady, who was so train ed in bookkeeping that she can support her ! self, is glad to give her time in the evening | to extend to others the good she has herself received
 This combination of the Home with classes of course increases expense, calling 1 for more gas. more heat, more service than would be needed for the house alone. Yet | the present rent, $400, is less by $100 than was paid for the three rooms in which the l work began. It is evident that the Home l can hardly be self-supporting while it can accommodate so few, and while it is often necessary to remit for time even the mod crate price asked for board. In this very direction lies, however, an important part of this Christian work, to uphold those who might otherwise be discouraged while seek ! ing employment.
 To meet these various outlays the mana gers depend entirely upon annual collections, gathered slowly and wearily by individual effort If only pledges of $25 each could be obtained from one hundred persons, and of $50 from ten more, the ladies might venture to follow out the avenues of usefulness con- stantly opening before them. Their fair in the spring, through the labor and fiber ality of many, enabled them, with some other money in hand, to pay $2, 900 on the debt of the
 house, leaving $9, 900 still due. The interest
 upon this at per cent is the rent alluded to above.
 There has never been so much to encourage
 the managers in the condition of the work as now. Many are seeking to enter classes and
 the girls are learning to prize the friends and question of support is growing to be a seri- ous one. Valuable gifts in furniture and
 other material aid show that the association
 is remembered. Will not friends come for
 ward with the subscriptions indispensable
 to it's existence? Mrs. H. B. Bigelow, the
 president, or Mrs. E. M. Reed, the treasurer,
 will gladly receive all donations.

The Annex Hotel Burned to the
 Ground The Fire Incendiary = A
 Building with . History.
 The old and we'll known hostelry near the Four Corners, in East Haven, was burned at an aarly hour Friday morning. The place has been unoccupied for several weeks. George Mckenzie, son of Captain Mckenzie, who lives near the place, heard 6 cry of fire, saw man running from the building and saw flames bursting from the building. He gave the alarm and ran out of the house and carried out some of the furniture. There was no water handy, and even if there was 6 supply the fire had too much headway when discovered to be subdued by any stream the Fair Haven East fire department could throw on it.
 The building was owned by Frank w Willman of 673 State street, this city, pro prietor of saloon there. He purchased il from Robert Rowe, of East Haven, about eight or nine years ago for $5.000 and gave il out for rent Beers 6 Munson long kept { saloon there, having hired the premises from Mr Willman When Beers moved to the city he sold out his interest to his partner Frank Munson was proprietor of the sstab 1ishment up to the time 1t was hired by David Marshall The latter ran the house for some time, but when he wanted to renew his license early last spring, he found strong sentiment in the neighborhood against grant ing it, and after hearing before the county commissioners his petition was denied. Mar shall immediately surrendered his lease and moved away.
 The house has long history. The origi- nal structure was erected shortly before the Revolutionary war, and was an ordinary farm house. After serving in this capacity for several years it passed into the hands of the famous and wealthy Jeremiah Woodward, who turned the little farm house into what was considered in those days g very elaborate mansion. He and his family lived there for many years. Jeremiah committed suicide by hanging himself in the house.
 Mr. Wil1man, the owner, says that the fire must have been set by somebody, but he has no clue to the criminal. He lays it to the neighbors. The place was insured for $4, 900. MT. Willman does not intend to rebuild.

WallfRgford and the St. John Ticket
 The Perkins Shooting.

WALLINGFoRn, Conn.,, Sept. 26, 1884. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER;
 Notwithstanding the fact that this town, with population of less than six thousand, sup ports over score of saloons, there ie quite a comfortable number of our residents who favor the St. John ticket. A regular prohi- bition club has been formed and would like to occupy the Town Hall by holding one or two public meetings therein, but cannot ob- tain it without paying rent therefor This they have no objection to provided other political parties are also required to pay rent Some time ago the selectmen met and voted the use of the Ilan free to the Democratic and Republican organizations for holding campaign meeti1 ags therein This may be considered right by some people, but if it is wrong 1t may yet be lighted at no distant day.
 The "true inv ardnessH of the alleged shoot in print 1t InAy not be out of place if the facts are submitted to a can did world. A responsible resident recently asserted in the presence of reliable witnesses that he positive ly knows that Talcott did not shoot Perkins; that he knows who did the shooting; that it was not done on the street nor in the caTn age; that he (the citizen afore- said) knows jus where it was done-au of which, he says, is true and that he would 'swear to it on his dying bed The same cit izen also states that he knows that one of the town constable assisted Talcott in his flight from the place which was merely & Efblindp to cover up tn real facts. Many of our citi- zens would ID ke to have this matter inyesti- gated by the ocal authorities. CITIZEN.
