SHEA AND BOARDMAN.
All The Preliminaries For The COmlH
 Race Arranged.

All The Preliminaries For The Coming Race Arranged. w. J. Shea, of Hartford, was in New Lon don Sunday and completed the arrange ments for his race with Albert c. Boardman for purse of $250 and the championship of Connecticut. The race will take place at Osprey Beach on Friday, August 7th, at 1 o'clock in the morning. It will be three mile race with three turns, each turn to be made by holding water with the left oar and pulling with the right. The turning stakes are to be thirty yards apart, thus making a foul at the turn almost impossible. The stakes will be in position two days before the time set for the race, and the toss for choice of course will be fifteen minutes be- fore the race. In case of an interference or obstruction to either contestant the race will be rowed again. Boardman named Dr. William Appleton, of Boston, judge and Shea selected H. W. Hutchinson, of Hart ford, to act for him. It is not known who will be referee, but it is quite probable that this important position will be filled by Rob ert J. Cook, the celebrated college oarsman, or the junior partner of the Hartford law firm of Hyde, Gross & Hyde, former member of the Yale University crew. The result is awaited with interest, as the race will be rowed on it's merits, each of the con testanNs rowing to win,

A Wild Steer Escapes From the
 Slaughter House and Frightens
 Many People.
 August Schroeder and John Pitcher, two butchers, are in the employ of Strong, Barnes, Hart & Co. at their slaughter house on Long Wharf. Yesterday morning the two men started to lead a wild steer into the slaughter pen when the steer suddenly pulled away from the men and started up Long wharf towards the center of the city at mad gallop. The men quickly jumped into a carriage and Schroeder drove while Pitcher carried a Winchester rife in his hands. Af- ter chasing the frightened steer for nearly three miles around the streets in the south western part of the city they finally corralled the steer in an open lot near the corner of Spring and Liberty streets, where Pitcher shot it and then stabbed it several times in the neck During his wild flight the steer jumped over many children and two men, but did not stop to hurt them.

J. G. BARNETT, DIED JULY 25 1885.

This was surrounded with wreath of ivy leaves. The floral pieces included 8 Masonic star from Hiram lodge, harp on standard from Dr. Barnett's scholars and pillow from the Children's Sabbath school, New Haven. The funeral cortege proceeded to Spring Grove cemetery There the Hartford Male chorus sang two selections and burial prayers were offered by Professor Pratt, of the Theological seminary. The whole cere- mony was touching in it's simplicity. Pro lessor Pratt in his remarks referred to the power and influence of music. All nature, he said, was full of music. We only want somo one to develop and direct it. He who, like Dr. Barnett, devotes his life to this beau tiful work, is to be commended. To his good work, and his fine discriminating ob- servation, in selecting and directing musical talent, many a musician, now successful and prominent, owes that success. The professor spoke of his services in bringing out, in Hartford, the great oratorios of the great masters; it had e4erted good and endur- ing effect. He also spoke of Dr. Barnetts magnetic power-it was '.like hooks of steel, drawing people to him"
 He also referred pointedly to the doctors self sacrificing efforts in the promotion of good music. Probably no other more hard working man in that direction ever lived. He did noble work-and "his works do follow him

 THE TAX COLLECTORS ACCOUNTS. Arrangements to Have Them Au-
 dited.
 Alderman Graves and Councilman Law renee, a subcommittee of the Committee on Auditing, met in the Mayors office last evening to consult with the city auditor and tax collector relative to auditing the &C., counts of the latter.
 Tax Collector Futile, who was present, said that while he believed his accounts to be correct, he was anxious that they should be audited as he wished to have them proved correct. He said it was over four years since his department had been investigated. He thought his office should be looked over every six months. The work to be done he thought would require the time of two ac- countants for three months and would cost about $1 200.
 Alderman Graves said the subcommittee would report progress to the full committee tomorrow evening. While he was satisfied that MT. Tuttles books were all right, yet the accounts should be audited.
 Councilman Lawrence concurred in the views of Alderman Graves in regard to the proposed auditing
 City Auditor Lake said that he audited a portion of the accounts each month and found them correct.
 The sub committee will report the facts as they found them to the general committee.
