A sCOUNDREL CAUGHT.


kH0 Insults Ladies on william StfeeI-
 Clever Work of the Detectives.
 For some days large burly colored man has been in the habit of going to the back doors of peoples residences on William street and rapping for admission. When the lady of the house or servant, the case might be, would open the door the black scoundrel would wantonly expose his person to them and then run away. It was said that he would come up the railroad track, climb up the stone wall and get over the fence and through the garden to the door. The police authorities were notified and the detectives were set to work to catch the rascal Detectives Reilly and Brewer started out yes terday afternoon with no idea of catching the fellow, as he had been threatened with shoot ing if he came around the neighborhood again. The detectives went down to William street and obtained full description of the man from a number of ladies whom he had insulted. While they were talking with one of the ladies in her yard female voice from a window in the upper story sang out, 'EThere he comes down the track" The off cers started on a Iun, one going to the Osborne street bridge and the other to Olive street. Detective Reilly reached Olive street bridge and partly concealed him. self and waited for the man to come along. After a short time the fellow hove in sight and MT. Reilly, hastily descending to the track, walked up until he met the man and took him into custody. Detective Brewer came up shortly after and the two marched their prisoner to the police station. As they passed along up the track several ladies said to the officers, F'That's the man; how glad we are that you have caught him." At the station the man gave his name Taylor Parker, and said he was from New York He will probably be tried in the City court chambers this morning.

The Handsome Reception And Ger
 man Given At The Residence Of
 David L.- Gardiner.
 There has rarely been in this city more charming and refined entertainment than that given at the old Foote mansion on Whitney avenue on Tuesday evening, the account of which reached us too late for pub lication In yesterdays issue. The large house was brilliantly illuminated and handsomely decorated for reception given by the pres ent occupants, MT. and Mrs. David L. Gar diner, and german by their son, MT. Rob ert Gardiner. The Gardiners are descend ants of the famous Gardiners of Gardiner's Island, and their residence in this city is filled with rare paintings and antique furni- ture of great beauty and value. Among their heirlooms is a piece of gold cloth which Captain Kidd left to the original David Gar diner when he landed on the island.
 Shortly after g o'clock the guests began to arrive and from then until midnight ths spacious drawing rooms were thronged with elegantly dressed representatives of New Haven's culture and refinement. Immediately following the VI all the refreshments which a good caterer can furnish, was served in the handsome dining room. Following the supper came the ger man given by MT. Robert Gardiner. This was held in an octagonal room in the eastern wing, Robinson's orchestra being stationed in the passageway leading to it. The floor was all that could be desired for dancing. On the north side of the room a table con- taining the german favors was presided over by Miss Gardiner, who distributed the vari- ous articles to the dancers as they completed their dances. MT. s. Mason Hoppin with Miss White gracefully led the cetillion and carried out to perfection the figures. The favors were elaborate and notable for the display of excellent taste in their selection. One round consisted of canary birds and goIdfinches for the ladies and sill yer coin scarf pins for the gentlemen. Countless articles of bric-a-brac and an abundance of flowers made up the remaining rounds. It was nearly 3 a. m. before the strains of the last waltz closed the evenings entertainment. The dresses of some of the ladies were exquisite. The acknowledged favorites of the german were Miss McAllis- ter of California, and Miss Collins of New port, R. I.
 Among those present at the reception and german were: Dr. and Mrs. Chapman, Pro- lessor Simeon E. Baldwin, Hon. Colin M Ingersoll, Miss Trowbridge, the Misses White, Miss Fisher, Miss Gardner, Miss Hayden, Miss Whitney, Miss Hotehkiss, Mir. George D. Watrous, MT. Thompson, Mir. G. P. In gersol1, Mir. John K. Beach, MT. F. G. Beach, and Mir Ripley There were over twenty couples in the cotillion.
