THE CHANGE IN THE WEATHER.

The Somewhat Remark able Character
 of the Late Protraeted Mild Spell
 -Butterfies and Blue birds-A Boom
 for the MasOns.
 The cold snap which set in on Wednesday
 night seemed to 'ffreeAe everybody up" yes-
 terday, the change from spring-like weather
 to freezing weather having been so sharp and sudden. The recent spell of mild weather was notable one, both for it's almost ethe- real mildness and it's long continuance. A prominent citizen residing on Greene street opposite the new Green on the day before Christmas discovered large and fine butter fly Hitting about comfortably on his ample doorstep under the portico, and he brought ''the bird" in and it is now quite domesticat- ed among the house plants. A bluebird on Wednesday last perched upon the Broadway church in Norwich, and the local paper says that Git sent up a spring-like song" The mason builders here and elsewhere in the
 State have had happy time of it, and, as a prominent builder puts 1t, they have just
 laughed with pleasure and satisfaction, for
 seldom, indeed, do they have good weather for laying stone and brick clear up to New Years day, as they nave had thls year. The work on the new rolling mill addition
 to Winchesters was begun long after winter
 had set in and with the open weather and an energetic pushing of the work it is now nearly completed. The excavating of the cellar for the Kelly brothers large block on State street, corner of Pearl, was begun about the middle of December and complet- ed the day before yesterday and the work was not delayed an hour by frost. The boys especially those who became the iubilant possessors of new ice skates or sleds for Christmas have been grumbing somewhat at the mild weather, and the icemen have glanced a little uneasily at the thermometer, but they nightly decide that there's plenty of time for ice and blizzards yet this winter.

Entertainments.

Lester & Aliens minstrels appeared at the New Haven Opera House last evening The programme consisted of two parts-the first an o1io, which was made interesting by the disclosure of several good voices; the secend, notable among other things for the appear ance of the worlds famous pugilist, John L. Sullivan, and the hardly less renowned wrestler, William Muldoon, in series of statuary posings representing Grecian and Roman art. The piece de resistance was en- titled Southern Life," calling into requisi- tion the entire roster of the organization. The performance was adjudged a very fair one. although the interest of the evening was apparently centered in the persons of the champions of the ring.
 At this opera house this and tomorrow evenings and tomorrow afternoon Bart1ey CampbelIs romantic drama 'sSiberia" will be presented by what is said to be frst-class company with scenery which is something grand ''Siberia" made an instantaneous hit here last season.

The London LaHcct, referring to the
death of Mr. Mas, the wel-known tenor,
calls attention to the peril of sleeping in
a damp bed. As a matter Of fact, this
peril is Of the greatest, and it is almost
ever present The experienced traveller
rarely hazards the risks of sleeping be
tween sheets, which are nearly sure to
be damp, until they have been aired un-
der his personal supervision at a fire in
his bed room. If this be impracticablc,
he wraps his rug around him. or pulls
out the sheets and sleeps between the
blankets-a disagrccablc but often pru-
dent cxpcd!ent. The dircSt mischief may
result from the contact of an impcrfectiy
heated body with sheets which retain
moisture The body heat is not sufficient
to raise the temperature Of the sheets to Il
safe point, and the result must be disas-
