 ington Yesterday.

The funeral of Captain Lucas Sutliffe, who died at his residence in this city, was held yesterday at the Baptist church in Southing
 ton. The Rev. MT. Stevens, pastor of the church, officiated and made feeling and very appropriate address. A detail from Admiral Foote post, G. A. R., this city, under Commander s. J. Fox, attended the funeral. There were beautiful floral tributes. Tester days Hartford Courant says of the deceased: stCaptain Sutliffe and his brother Frederick, with several others from Southington, enlist
 ed in the summer of 1861 in Company D of the Seventh regiment, which company was mainly enlisted byGeneral Hawley in the old Evening Press office, where the Courant building now stands. Captain Sutliffe went to the front @ sergeant. He was good soldier and for meritorious service he was
 promoted and finally received the rank of captain and was assigned to the
 panies in the regiment. He was at
 one time, while the regiment was in
 the South engaged in the campaign against Charleston detailed for recruiting service and spent time in that work in this city, In the campaign against Richmond and Petersburg ill 1864, he was wounded in
 one of the battles at Bermuda Hundre q. He served through the war with his regi- ment and was mustered out with it in 1885. l He was genial man, and he every way de- l served the high esteem in which he was al- | ways held by the officers and men of his
 regiment. He and his brother Frederick,
 now living in Southington, who was also wounded in the service, were at the reunion ] of the regiment in Winsted last summer"

 toms Birthday.
 The Republican league held an informal social gathering last evening in honor of the birthday of Washington, an event specially appropriate in view of the fact that the league house stands on the site of the old Roger Sherman house, in which General Washing ton had his headquarters during short stay in this city in the days of the Revolution. The old house was then the home of Roger Sherman, one of the signers of the Declara- tion of Independence. and the house next door to the league house, occupied by MT. Charles A. White, also known as the Roger Sherman house, was built and occupied by MT. Sherman at later date. There was nothing revolutionary done at the league social last evening. Everything was in order and enjoyable. A fine collation. was served, MT. Bradley, the caterer, scoring another success. A corps of colored walters assisted.

A Schooner,s PeriIous Trip.

PORTLAND, Me, Feb. 22.-This morning the schooner Valante, Captain Em5er, of this port, from Harbor Grace, made port after passage of twenty days. She seemed as she came in to be an iceberg. Her deck had been swept clear of deck cargo, while aloft everything showed that she had passed through terrible experience. Captain Ember said: "We left Harbor Grace with a fair wind and fine cargo, but had hardly got well out when the storm began. Gale followed gale, storms of snow were succeeded by storms of rain and then of cutting hail. All hands worked day and night, and as she leaded badly we had to keep at the pumps from the time the first storm struck us. To add to our troubles ice formed with great rapidity, making it absolutely necessary to keep cutting and throwing it overheard. We did not suffer for food, but after twenty days and nights of constant work we are all worn out. If the Volante had not been 8 strong vessel she would have gone to the bottom J

Elizabeth Hyatt Gilbert.

Elizabeth Hyatt, wife of Isaac J. Gilbert, died in Derby yesterday morning at 10 o'clock at the advanced age of eighty three years and three months. The deceased was stricken with paralysis few weeks ago, from which she never rallied, although until with in few days she had been able to recline in an easy chair much of the time during the day. Mrs. Gilbert was a remarkable woman in many respects In the discharge of home duties she WAS faithful and untiring, and though her household duties were often pressing yet the even and kind disposition which she possessed never forsook her and under any and all circumstances she met ev eryone with kind-heartedness that made them feel that this life was not altogether a burden. She was kind to the poor and those less favorably circumstanced have often had occasion to remember with gratitude not only her kind words, but the substantial aid re- ceived at her hands. She was model moth CT and in the pressure of family duties found time to teach her children those truths of correct living that were never forgotten and which will make her memory dear to them while life lasts.
 It will be remembered that last fall MT. and Mrs. Gilbert celebrated the sixtieth an niversary of their marriage, full account of which was published in the COURIER. At that time Mrs. Gilbert was in the enjoyment of excellent health and with her own hands prepared the feast for the large number Of relatives and friends that assembled to ex- tend their congratulations on so suspicious an occasion. Among the aged people present at that time, no one would have select ed her as the first of the number to be taken away but such is the fact.
 Mrs. Gilbert had been consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal church for many years, having united with it in her youth. She loved the church and it's privileges and was regular attendant upon the services un- til stricken by disease. She leaves besides a husband to mourn her loss four children, as follows: Mrs. Grace Pegg, wife of Rev. John Pegg of Port Chester, N. Y; Mrs. Hattie Wheeler, widow; NIT. J. Mix Gilbert, of Cincinnati, and MT. A. H. Gilbert, of Derby. The funeral will take place from the family residence in Derby tomorrow Wednesday, at .30 D. m

POACHING IN CANADIAN WATERS. No Quarter to be Given American Tres
 pasSerS.


 ST. JOHN, N. B., Feb. 22.-This morning your correspondent had an interview with Captain Scott, R. N., who has just arrived from Ottawa, whither he had been sum moned by the marine and fisheries depart ment to arrange plan of action for protect ing Canadian fisheries in the event of a re- fusal of Congress to appoint commission. The captain stated that nothing would be done until an answer had been received from the United States authorities. If it is un- favorable cruisers will be put on to drive the American fishermen off our shores. A fleet mounted with guns will be employed for that purpose There will be about ten yes sells required, six schooners and four steam CTS, and they will cruise all the way from Gaspe to Eastport. The schooners will carry twenty three men. One steamer is now on her way to the Magdalen Islands to drive away any American fishermen who may seek to steal Canadian fish there. The captain declares that not a moment will be wasted after the answer is received and no quarter will be given to poachers. If they will not be driven off they will be captured. The policy of the American fishermen he says has been to lie about our fish and then to steal them, and the Canadian government is determined that they shall be allowed no privileges

AN lNJUR FED BRAK EIAN. He Falls Through a Bridge While
 Watching a Hot BOX.


 Last evening an extra freight train left Harlem river for this city and between Port Chester and Greenwich it was discover ed that there was hot box on one of the cars that needed attention. William Rath- burn, one of the train brakemen, left his car with an oil can to cool off and lubricate the box, and after he did so the train was moved along slowly while he walked beside the car with the heated box to apply more oil il necessary. He was watching the box intent ly and did not notice a bridge over the road way as the train passed on to it, and kept on his walk until he reached the open bridge, when he fell through it to the frozen ground below, distance of fifteen feet. He was picked up and brought to this city, where he arrived about midnight, and sent to his home No. 42 George street. While being badly bruised, it was thought no bones were brok- en. Dr. Frank Whittemore was summoned by telephone and went to Rathburn's resi- dence to attend him.

 About 1 o'clock this morning some students started a bonfire on the campus which attracted three policemen to the scene, when the students scattered and made good their escape. Close by the fire the policemen found small box which contained explosive material, arranged in such a way that on be ing disturbed explosion would result. When the policeman who found the box picked it up the contents exploded, but fortu nately he escaped injury, owing to the posi- ton in which he was holding the box. The police are very indignant over the affair as they think the internal machine was placed there deliberately and malicisusly to injure them
