FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY.

A Preliminary MeetIng-What The
 Young Mems Institute Proposes
 To The City.
 The joint special committee of the Court of Common Council appointed to confer with a committee of the Young Mems Institute re- garding the transfer of the Institutes inter ests to the city for a free public library held their first meeting last evening in room No. 2, City Hall. The committees are composed as follows: On the part of the city, Alder men States, Whitney and Goebel, Council men Watrous, Mansfield, Fitzpatrick and Futile; on the part of the Institute, Henry E. Pardee, P. Arvine, T. Attwster Barnes, c. E. Graves and F. E. Harrison. Alder man States was selected as chairman.
 The proposition of the Institute in sub stance was: To cede to the city their build ing, free from debt, worth about $50, ,000, the books, numbering about F, 900 volumes, and their interest in the .Maret fund amounting to about $80,000. The city to pay the running expenses of the library, keep up the supply of books, &c.,, &c. If the city fails to comply with these conditions then the property is to re- vert back to the original owners. The pres ent income of the Institute is about $1 800, which also is ceded to the city.
 The question of using the State House for a free library was brought up in an informal manner. Ex-Judge Pardee said he was de- cidedly opposed to that proposition. He said the building was not suitable and the location was bad. He was satisfied that if it should be located there for one year that the citizens wonld demand almost unanimously that it should be removed to more conven- tent locality After other informal talk on this subject it was dropped altogether as for eign to the question that the committee had met to consider.
 On motion of Mir. Graves a committee of two, one to be appointed by the chairman of the city committee and one to be appointed by the chairman of the Institute committee, was appointed to investigate as to the cost of running 8 free public library, the question of increasing the circulation, etc., etc, and re- port at a future meeting. Councilman Mans field was appointed the part of the city and T. Attwater Barnes on the part of the In stitute.
 The question of a suitable building was discussed at some length, and it was finally decided that this was an after consideration. The opinion of most of those present seemed to be that the present Institute building was sufficient for present purposes.
 The meeting, which was preliminary one, adjourned subject to the call of the chair man.

 An AbscOnding Chicago Man Arrested.
 Some time ago MT. William Clark, post master at Birmingham, had 8 man arrested who was trying to play little confidence game ill buying stamps. Before Justice Storrs it turned out that the prisoners name was Charles w. Hubert and that he came from New York. He was sent to jail for thirty days In his pockets were found some money, several checks and letters addressed to John s. Palmer. Upon telegraphing par ties in Chicago on whom one of the checks was drawn it was found that Palmer had ab- seconded some time before with some of his employers money. He had worked the game on change and forgery in many places, in cluding New Haven, where, it is said, he swindled merchants out of several hundred dollars Mir. Clark secured mittimus ot Justice Storrs, and the prisoners sentence was shortened to seven days. He thinking this the work of Chief Martin and MT. Clark offered to take them to New York and show them his pals This was accepted and Mar tin accompanied him to the depot, where they were arrested and taken to the Boston authorities. Martin of course proved his in- nocence and Palmer is now in Boston in cell awaiting his trial for forgery. Palmer has been connected with successful conf dence men. The scheme of Postmaster Clark and Chief Martin to get Palmer in Bos- ton was creditable one.

SAVIN ROCK.

It. Appearance Before The Summer
 Season Opens--NeW Rink--NeW Ra1I-
 road Car.
 The West Haven horse cars run only to the Sea View House, and it is very doubtful if they will run as far as the Rock this sea- son. There is a good deal of red tape busl- ness about filling in the land which was washed away by the storms of recent win ters. It is the intention eff several hotel men to run busses to Savin Rock if the road is not improved so as to allow the cars to run to the rock. The cottages are rapidly filling up and from the present outlook there will be 6 tremendous rush for the West Haven shore this summer. MT. Skeeles, who has the res taurant on the Rock. is making extensive improvements on his place. There will be a new floor laid for his rink, his bathing houses will be repaired and those that were washed away will be replaced by new ones. Mir. Howes is making an extension of seventy five feet to his roller skating rink and when finished it will be 190 feet long. A new floor is being laid and when any Improvements are to be made of the floor he will use 8 patent floor scraper made expressly for smoothing skating rink floors. At the farther end of the rink he will have an ice cream stand The West Haven brass band have been engaged by him for the season. When finished the rink will be equal to any shore rink in the country. Entirely new skates will be used, probably the Harvard" MT. Howes will open the rink to the public Me morial day and evening, when he intends to give the people grand time.
 A few feet from Howes' rink an elevated railroad car platform is being built. The car starts from certain height and goes down steep incline; the momentum thus gained is sufficient to make it ascend steep incline, from which the ear descends again and stops at the starting place.
 The horse car company are building new turn at the corner of Beach street, and are otherwise improving the road over which their cars run.
 The finishing touches are being put on MT. John c. Anderson's magnificent residence on Beach street.
 By the middle of June the shore season will be fully open and everything will be running in full blast:
 As yet it is undecided who will run the Sea View House this season. Several parties are negotiating for it.
