THE SEASHORE.

Grand Picnic of the Humphrey Street
Church-Good Times Enjoyed by a
Large New Haven Party-Notes by
the Way.
A large party went on the steamer Phila-
delphia, Captain Human, yesterday to Paw
son Park on the Humphrey street church
picnic, and the park was voted by all to be
one of the incest places for a picnic. The
rocks here and there, the view of the water,
the sweet, woodsy smell of the pine and hem
lock trees, with clear sky above, combine
to make the place delightful one and the
accommodations for picnic parties are very
good. There were about three hundred and
fifty on the boat and the various amusements,
roller skating, croquet playing, etc., were en-
gagged in. Some of the party strolled through
the fields about three-quarters of a mile to
see the cottages and hotels. The cottages
are occupied, among them the Thomas R.
Trowbridge cottage and the cottage belonging
to Mr.. Gallaudet, of the deaf and dumb asy-
lum at Hartford. The hotels are pretty well
filed, although the cold weather has been a
great drawback One of the pleasantest
of the shore houses at this place is the Indi-
dian Neck House kept by Mrs Mary Good
rich, who with her husband, now deceased,
has kept the house for fifteen years. Among
the guests at this house from New Haven are:
Mr.. and Mrs. E. B. Taylor, Mrs. NJ. Lyons
and family; and from Hartford, Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Billings, Miss Mamie Billings, Mrs.
DR.. Irving Lyons, beside many others, while
the house containing thirty-two rooms is
wholly engaged for August list, mostly by
Hartford people. Mr.. Thomas R. Trow-
bridge drove to the park in the afternoon.
Among those at Pawson Park were Rev. Mr..
Bray and family, William Atwater and wife,
Horace Atwater and sons from Cedar Hill, G.
P. Merwin and wife, Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson,
Mr.. Shares, superintendent of Sabbath
school, Mrs. Matthews, w. Smith and wife,
Detective Brewer and wife, Mr.. and Mrs. G.
B. Matthewman, Frank Newton, Mr.. and
Mrs. Lewis Chidsey, Mr.. Bushnell, of Bush
nell & Dewen and Mr.. James Davis, of the
Whitneyville horse railroad, marched to the
boat headed by the Eighth ward Zouaves
and many persons drove to the Neck in their
teams. The boat reached home early after a
pleasant sail all well satisfied with their ex-
cursion. Many expressions of appreciation
for courtesies by Captain Human are made
by excursionists.

Boat Found.
The skiff has been found in which
Lewellyn Davis, Bridgeport's missing man,
was last seen going out rowing. 1t was seen
Tuesday morning adrift in the harbor near
Cooks Point by Mrs. Frank G. Grabber, of
Seaview avenue, and in the afternoon she
sent her son to pick it up. It was then one
half or two-thirds full of water. One of the
oars was in the row-lock and the other was
laid lengthwise across the thwarts. The
sponge and bailing dish were also in the
boat. Tt is supposed Mr.. Davis fell over
board. His family relations were pleasant
and it is not believed that he committed sui
eide. His brother-in-law, Mr.. G. Cook, of
Seymour, is making every exertion to find
the missing man. Oystermen were dragging
the harbor yesterday in hopes to find the

Humor i'm the stomach.

Much of the distress and sickness attribu-

causes is occasioned by humor in the stom-

BY Hoods Sarsaparilla. Other cures effect
ed by this medicine are SO wonderful that the

craft were principally yachts.
The above is from William NJ. Merwin, the
noted oyster grower and shipper of Milford.
Mr.. Merwin also in private letter, in an
swer to Mr.. Beers, says regarding Milford's
commercial interests: 'SSipce the improve
ments have ceased the channel remains about
the same except slight filling at the outer
bar, which is apt to be the case at the mouths
of all rivers. We should greatly desire that
our engineer in charge would recommend q
small appropriation to deepen the outer bar,
and to make basin behind the breakwater
to accommodate the sailing crafts that make
our harbor during storms which now anchor

of steamers which pass in and out every day,
