Mrs. Isabella Beecher Hooker was detained from speaking before the Temperance coin. rnlttee. at HasttoFd on Wednesday, and Judge sheldon, of New Haven, addressed the assembly which was large one, making the principal argument. He said that every effort to extend the suffrage had been met with the same objections that were now made to giving women the right to vote. This point he illustrated at sotne length. He said that wonAeh should have the ballot in order to overcome curruptfoh at the polls. This could only De done by putting in virtue Or taking out vice. The latter waS impossi- bic Ena the former could be done by putting the women on the voting list. At any rate they should have the vote on this license question. Mrs. Collins argaed that women should have the same right ii municipal or general matters that they already have in joint stock corporations, in which they own stock and in which they are no more interested than in these other matters. She also argued that women are not, in fact, represented by theit husbands and t1aie relatives as is sometimes claimed Judge Merrill, of Southington, favored female suffrage at large and especial | ly in this matter of voting on licenses Ad dresses were also made by Mrs. Parsons oi

Actor Bown's Escape.

How One of Ghe WeBber Opera Com
 pany dumped Through Window
 At CarI's Opera House and Was
 Arrested.
 About o'clock last evening Officer Tiernan brought to the police station medium-sized young man, of light complexion, plainly dressed and wearing a black skull cap, which rested lightly on his flowing locks of brown hair. The officer and his charge were closely followed by two young gentlemen finely dressed and unmi5takably students. The officer stated that the young man with him had been arrested upon complaint of Manager Carll for breaking through window at his opera house and thereby injnring bis prop erty. The young man, who said his name was William Paul Bown, was much aggrieved at his arrest. ''You haven't any case against me- he said. He gave his age as thirty and said he was an actor, and that his home was in New York He and his wife are members
 of the Webber Opera company which is now stranded in this city. Bown, or Brown, as his name appeared in the programme for the concert which was given at Carll's Opera
 House in aid of the singers of the
 troupe, is one of the leading singers. Last night he went to the opera house and wbile he was in one of the dressing rooms, making preparations
 for leaving to day, the stage carpenter told him he would have to take his trunk for debt. MT. Bown protested and he found himself locked in the room. Thereat the offended actor proceeded to look about for means of escape. The door was locked firm and fast. He then raised the window, broke open the iron screen that protected it and | threw out his trunk. Officer Tiernan was then summoned. He took the actor in charge and with the trunk both went to the Grand Union hotel Officer Herman says that he then went to MT. Carll with Bown and asked MT. Carll if he desired to have the man ar rested. On being told that he did the officer led the man out followed by quite party. Mrs. Bown appealed to some of those in the crowd whom she knew to go down and bail out her husband.
 Two students, Messrs. Phelps and Hand, the former a son of Professor Phelps, of
 Yale, and the latter senior in the Academic department, promptly responded and &C., companied the officer to the station and pro cured the prisoners release. The two then proceeded to the Opera House where Mir. Bown was advertised to sing, but he did not appear. Miss Gordon expressed herself very freely in commendation of Bown's course in leaping out the window. ':I wish I was a man." she said, q would do the same thing myself'' The concert was but slimIy attended, the proceeds not going much above $50. MT. Carll sent for Judge Blydenburgh and secured him counsel in the case. The manager of the company owes Mr. Carll quite sum of money. It is not likely that they will get out of town to-day.
