Henry Clay Work,
The Famous Song Writer Ends His Life
 in Hartford.

The Famous Song Writer Ends His Life
 in Hartford.
 Henry 0. Work, the noted song writer and composer, died suddenly of heart disease at the home of his mother, Nc. 42 Chestnut street, Hartford, last Sunday evening. Our country has produced few song writers whose works have been more widely sung than Mir. Work. Some few of his productions have not only been on the lips of nearly every man, woman and child in America, but have been known and sung. with some few varia- tions, in every part of the world. This can be said of his Marching Through Georgia, ' 8 song which was known to every Union soldier in the war, the music of which has since spread to every cline. Mir. Work ex- celled in war songs. It would be difficult to find a survivor of the rebellion who had not joined in the chorus of "RalIy Round the Flag" and Kingdoms Coming" !" or the old slavery song ''Old Nichodemus. 7" His compositions were of the popular order and touched the popular heart. Who is there who has not heard his temperance song, t'Dear Father Come Home With Me Now,' or his song of few years ago, "Grandfath- CTS Clock?" It has often been said that MT. Works temperance songs have been as great an influence in leading many to abandon the ways of intemperance as the exhortations of the temperance reformers. There is scarcely Grand Army gathering where his songs are not sung and they are sure to be sung at pop ular gatherings for generations to come. MT. Work wrote many revival songs, several of which were brought out especially for the choir of the Brooklyn Plymouth church.
 His gift of song writing was 8 remarkable one. A subject would suggest itself to his mind and oftentimes he would neither cat nor sleep until song was composed and set to music. He always wrote his own accom- paniment.
 MT. Work was the son of the late Alanson Work, of Hartford, and was 52 years old. He had a common school education as 8 youth and became printer. He worked for a considerable time at his trade in Hartford. He had a rowing disposition, and in the course of his life he had visited nearly every section of the country, and while his songs were universally known he only realized tri1ing amounts from them.
 His wife died three or four years ago, and his only child is g married daughter who lives in New York or Brooklyn. He has been in Hartford but short time, visiting his aged mother.

He is the coxswain of the University crew owing to his light weight and enters the race this month at New London.

Talk on the Street.

Admiral FooCe Post and BIadRe-AIso
 II Prominent Citizen Speaks His Mind Views of Other Influential Men.
 An old veteran writes to say that Admiral Foote post, G. A. R., has been accused of be- ing largely against Blaine and says the re- port is very far from correct and that the report emanated from an individual. He wishes the impression that the post has taken any such action or expressed any such prefer ence corrected, and believes the members of the post will with few exceptions, earnestly support Blaine.
 A prominent citizen writes: Put me down, if you please, as 8 Blaine man. l don't wither under it at ali. Blaine represents more than other man the active ener- eies of the Republican party,is man of bril- | liant abilities and will give us brilliant ad- ministration am glad the Republican party has omitted the dark horse' plan of nominating this time. That plan simply adopts a man because his merits, if he has any, have not appeared. We have enough oi the Frank Pierce style of presidents. Such nominations are premium on inoapacity Blaine even, the New York Sun admits, will give us a brilliant administration ano no one can charge him with hay ing engineered his nomination. Hi nomination is the spontaneous gift of th' people through their representatives, if evel there was one, and, is it Democratic, is i Republican to set aside the will of the peo pie believe in Blaine, believe that he Ii capable, eloquent, able and brilliant, and man who will honor the office of Presiden of the United States.''
 A prominent lawyer says: q believe ths the feeling at the bottom in the action of tn New York Times is greatly due to persona 1 reasons. No man can be long in public Tiff without mourning the displeasure more o less of some. The offense came in not onl in the line of public official action, but ii society channels through some real or fancie slight. The New York Times attacke' Arthur not very long time ago and woul have none of him. But Blaine will swee the country and be elected, and he can carr the day without carrying New York"
 Another prominent lawyer says: "I will no vote for Blaine"
 ''Why not?" Because in my opinion he rer resents the worst and most corrupt that is i the Republican party.'' ''Will you vote for Democrat?" ''I have that to think about Perhaps may. will wait and see wha kind of man they nominate"
 s'Do you think the Democratic party as to govern as the Republican," 1T think tha there is but little if any distinC tion between the platforms. What is part | except the principles it representa-"
 Another prominent New Haven citizen, on | of the younger men and active in civil SGT
 vice reform, said: ''I don't want Blaine, bu if the Democrats put up Butler shall vot for James G."

Bold Sneak Thieves.

They Capture the Money Drawer of a
 State Street Saloon i'm Broad Daylight
 and Leave the Empty Till on the Front
 Door.
 Ernest Kuehne and his bartender Paul were out in the yard in the rear of their saloon, 399 State street, yesterday afternoon about half-past five o'clock engaged in put ting up an awning. When they returned they found the money drawer missing and after some search discovered it out on the front door steps, empty. About $16 had been taken and some papers that the owner values very highly. A man standing in front of Bradley's hardware store on the corner of State and Court streets saw two men enter the saloon and in moment go out and walk up the street hastily. The till is kept just inside the door leading from the cigar room to the main saloon, and to reach it the men must have placed themselves in range of the vision of parties in the yard in the rear where the proprietor and his bartender were work ing. It was certainly bold piece of work

MT. Parsons, Pianororta Rasit.I.

Last evening MT. E. A. Parsons gave his third and concluding recital of pianoforte music at the rooms of the New Haven Con servatory of Music to an audience which not only filled the available space to saffocation, but oVerAowed to the passages outside and gave numerous proofs of it's appreciation of the rich musical fare provided. The pro- gramms included music of all periods from that of Mozart to the present time and, it is not too much to say that full justice was done to each and every item by the perform or, who was assisted upon this as upon for mer occasions by Mrs. Parsons, who most ably sustained the primo part in two piano. ferte duets, Spanish Dances (second set) by Moszkowki and sonata in c major by Mozart. Especially gratifying was the rendering of the very difficult and seldom attempted 'Barcarolle' of Chopin and of GottschaIk's imaginative and picturesque "Creole Danse;" and group of three pieces composed by Mir. Parsons himself showed his abilities in the higher departments of his profession in 8 very satisfactory light.
 So much interest has been manifested both by the public and by brother profess sionaIs in these recitals that we believe Mir. Parsons contemplates a further series in a short time, should his engagements permit, upon which occasions he may possibly be as- sisted by his colleagues in the other depart- ments of the conservatory.
