An Sorts of Stories.

Concerning Carl Dreyer, the melancholy Swede who committed suicide Wednesday by throwing himself in front of train, says the Meriden Republican, Gall sorts of romantic stories have been invented by imaginative correspondents. One says that he was ex- pelled from Norway for having taken prominent part in socialistio plots; another prints a story about his father having refus- ed to allow him to marry girl of inferior station, for which he left home and came to this country to make home for her, and as no one knows the facts of the case it is very easy to work up romance. It appears to be true that he had received money at differ ent times to pay his passage home and refused to accept it. Also that he had been out of work great deal and often had very little to eat. He also found great difficulty in paying the few small debts he contracted and evidently was united to make hand to hand struggle with life in strange country and among strange people, and his troubles affected his mind to such an extent that he was hardly responsible for his acts. His fate was certainly hard one and is made more pathetic by being revealed just at this Christmas season."

WAS TIT STRIKERS9

Two SWedes Employed At The Wire
 MiII Assaulted-Was It The Work of
 The Strikers2
 Yesterday Detectives Brewer and Reilly spent most of the day in trying to discover the nosplta1, came by his injuries and who it was that inflicted them Swensen was, as near as can be ascertained, with Le1en during the evening, and whether the two men fell to fighting among themselves, drunk as they both were, or whether they were assaulted by some of the wire mill strikers whose places they are filling at the mill, remains to be seen. The detectives were unable to find out much about the matter as Swensen was unable to talk and Lexen could not speak much English They, however, are of the opinion that the men were assaulted in Grand street saloon, and that some of the wire mill strikers were among the assaulting party. George Bergan, Swede living at 757 State street, was with Lexen during the evening and when he was with the party, but he could not be found at his home last evening as the Swedes were celebrating Christmas by get ting drunk. Swensen is getting along nice ly at the hospital
Morning journal and courier., 1885-12-26

The matron is sometimes awakened eight or ten times in the course of night by the chill dren getting uncovered and crying for cold, while at other times her rest is un- broken. The sanitary arrangements of the Home are poor and always have been. and there has not been an ample supply of water, so necessary in an institution of this kind. Last summer it was necessary
 to bring water in pails for long distance
 and the quantity required in so large fami-
 ly made the task an arduous one. It would
 seem that little money expended in the
 way of furniture for the institution would
 not be ground of complaint by the taxpay-
 CTS, and an early removal to some more con
 venlent locality would seem to be still more
 desirable.
 The children seem to be, as rule, healthy
 and happy. During the six months that
 Miss Frances Gleason has been in charge as
 matron it has not been found necessary to call in physician to prescribe for any of the
 members. Children who came there puny and emaciatsd from neglect and disease have under careful nursing become strong and healthy. There are some very bright chil- dren at the Home at present, and the man agers are desirous of finding good homes for them elsewhere as rapidly as possible The youngest child is eighteen months old and the eldest thirteen years.
 The amount expended by the county since the opening of the Home two years ago has peen $S, 4OU, Wnlch, added to the $1, 900 ap- propriated by the State on the opening of the l same, makes $3, 100 expended from these two sources. To these receipts are to be added the amount received for board of the chil- l dren, which with the expenses have not vet | been made up for the year now closing. That | ths small amount expended has been more | than saved to the taxpayers by finding per homes for about eighty children that would otherwise have been a burden to the several towns no one will doubt, to say noth- ing of the moral side of the question in re- moving these children from the evil inhu- en es under which they would grow up to man and wonanhood but for the watchfuI care of the State.
 It is not out of place, perhaps, to say that he managers have been very fortunate in se- turing so excellent matron as now presides 'ver the Home. She takes great interest 1
