Pretty Goods, A supper and Worthy
Object Draw a Large Crowd.
The fair in behalf of the Young Women's
Christian association opened yesterday after
noon at the parlors of Trinity church with
fine display of pretty articles for sale. The
objsct of the fair is to aid in paying off the
debt on the home and is under the manage
ment of committee of ladies connected with
the association: The sale was continued
during the evening and supper was served
from $3.50 to $50. The large crowd of peo-
pie who thronged the halls during the even
ing showed appreciative interest in the
good work of the association. Festoons of
flags hung round the walls of the room down
stairs and flowers and Chinese lanterns helped
to complete the decorations and add to the
prettiness of the counters. Everything
usually to be found at fairs was on SALE
fancy articles innumerable, candy, stationery,
flowers pictures and various articles of
utility. Lemonade was served at the door
and supper in the small room adjoining the
hail. The square of flowers in the center of
the large room down stairs was especially
pretty and tastefully arranged. The head
dresses of the young ladies who served as
saleswomen were very picturesque, and the
many pretty faces of those connected with
the fair helped much to make the sales large.
The managers deserve credit for marking all
articles at honest prices, thus departing from
the usual vicious custom at church fairs of
putting on fictitious values. The sale will be
continued to-day and concert will be
given in the evening

all present. Reynolds Bridge is

of Plymouth on the Naugatuck road
and those members attending the session
yesterday had aside from the enjoyable meet
ing, view of pleasing scenery which added
much to the enjoyment. 1t was noticeable
also that at the afternoon session many were
absent and when next seen had hands full
of trailing arbutus. Those present were
served in a most sumptuous manner. most
substantial dinner being served and an equally
substantial supper, both meals being a credit
to the ladies serving them.

Suit Against General Ford.

MIR. Crosby Wants Ten Thousand
Dollars Damages-The Case to be
Heard in Hartford.
Yesterday papers were served on General
George 81. Ford by Sheriff Byxbee in the
interest of William W. Crosby, who claims
80, 900 damages. The case grows out of
the Dart-Spaulding thefts, Mr.. Crosby hav-
ing been arrested for the alleged theft of a
diamond valued at 1925. The complainant
through his counsel, Lynde Harrison,
charges that be has been greatly damaged in
character. He says the statements made by
Mr. Ford were false and malicious. In con-
sequence of these statements Mr.. Crosby
says that he was arrested and the story of his
alleged theft published not only in the
papers of Connecticut, but in all the large
cities of the United States, and he was there
by damaged in character and reputation and
charged with being thief under arrest. Mr..
Crosby has had the case returnable in Hart
ford where his friends reside. He is at
present at the wholesale liquor store of

still Missing.

The Bridgeport Girl Not Yet Heard From.
The theory is now entertained that Annie
Tops, the. missing ffteen-year-old girl of
Bridgeport, was abducted. She disappeared
from home last Tuesday and when last seen
left her fathers store to take package of
plants to Highland avenue, promising to re-
turn at once and assist her mother in the
ironing. The Tops family think that Annie
was abducted by a man who had tried to in
duce ffteen-year-ol girl named Secor to
take ride with him. This occurred at about
the time and place where he would have been
likely to have encountered Annie Tops
when she was on the road to perform the
errand spoken of. Her mother is inconsola-
BILE and is impressed with the idea that Annie
has met with the fate of Rose Amber.

Her Hundreth Birthday.

Mrs. Elsie ChfttendeD, of GuiIfOrd,
Reaches Her Centenary-Rer Excellent
Health and Habits of Life.
Mrs. Elsie Chittenden, of Guilford, at
tanned her one hundredth birthday yesterday.
She was born in Durham, Conn Her early
education was completed in that place. Her
maiden name was Reave. The Bridgeport
Standard says Of her: About the year 1900,
or soon after, she married Mr.. Joy Meigs,
who had been conspicuous in all good mat
ters in the village of Durham, and she be-
came the mother of six children, four of
whom. q son and three daughters, are living.
and with the eldest of them, Mrs. Ebenezer
Evarts, herself an octogenarian, she is now
residing. From this devoted daughter she
receives the best OF care, and her every
want is anticipated. Her first husband died
more than half a century ago, and
marrying Mr.. Charles Ohittenden she re-
moved to Guilford, which has ever since
been her home. Mr. Chittenden died many
years since. OF late the centenarian has
kept her bed, receiving her food and talking
with her friends white In recCmbent pos
ture. For more than sixty years she has
been a snuff taker, and although no DISPOSE
ton to relinquish the habit has ever mani
tested itself, she wishes it to be under
stood that she is not slave to snuff.
Through life under all circumstan-
ces she has persistently refused to
partake of spurious liquors in any form. To
this, by many, is attributed her tendency to
longevity. Persons and things of her early
childhood she remembers and talks of very
but events of the present time she
does not retain. This is the case to great
extent with most of those of advanced age.
She has her second sight, and is able to read
without glasses.
Mr. Chittenden has excellent health, and
has never taken medicine. She received q
few friends yesterday, who extended their
hearty congratulations Otherwise there was
no demonstration.

Monarch.
Captain Duncan, who was commander Of
the steamer Norman Monarch, which took q
cargo of arms from this port to Constantine
pie few years ago, is commander of the
large four masted steamer Persian Monarch
of the same line (the Monarch ine), which
is now at the port of New York. The Per
sian Monarch is a powerful steamer of 4, 500
tons and sails tomorrow for London, taking
general cargo which includes many hun
bred live cattle. The steamer proceeds from
London to Eavre, where it takes on board a
cargo of French horses for this country. The
Monarch line has six steamers, each of over
1000 tons burthen. The Norman Monarch,
which was at this port, is now lying in

The young lad goes for the Improvement of
his health. Captain Duncan's daughter,

ladies formed acquaintance during the stay
of the Norman Monarch in this port, was
married few weeks ago in London.

His Ninetieth Birthday.

The Veteran New Haven Teacher John
e. Lowell.
Mr. John e. Lowell, New Haven's veteran
schoolmaster, came in town yesterday from
Waterbury where he is residing with his
daughter. Mrs. F. L. White. Mr.. Lowell at
tanned his ninetieth birthday on Wednesday.
He is not in quite as firm health as last sum-
mer, and his eyesight is somewhat weakened,
on which account his work upon the new
school books which he is preparing for the
press has been somewhat retarded. He was
on visit to this city yesterday chiefly to
consult DR.. Hotchkiss, the oculist, in refer
ence to his eyes. He is very cheerful and
active and was warmly greeted by some of
our most prominent citizens who CHANGED to
meet him and who have most pleasant recol-
lections of him as their preceptor in their
school days.
