The RTarylanders and the Connecticut

The RTarylanders and the Connecticut
Oyster-They Evtnce an Interest in
Yankee Pie as Well.
The Maryland visitors who were here last
week express themselves in the Baltimore
Sun of last Friday as pleased with all they
saw of the oyster industry here and delight
ed with the marked hospitality and kindness
shown them. They felt that they could not
have been better treated They go away also
satisfied that Maryland is ahead of New Ha-
ven far as natural advantages for raising
oysters are concerned, and are evidently not
afraid to blow their own horn. Senator Hold
son said on this score: "I think that we can
raise oysters of any given size in one-half the
time that will be required here. We have no
such enemies of the oyster as are encounter
ed here, and which these people are power
less to remedy. No capital, no steamboat, no
deep-water planting of shells or dredging is
necessary in Maryland, though we could en-
ploy them all at ten times the profit result
ing from the same kind of work here. A
skiff and pair of oyster tongs, costing not over
800, is all the Maryland oysterman needs to
begin business with, unless it may be good
stout son, which is not difficult to find around
any of the shores of our tide-water counties.
l am amazed at the difficulties to be encoun-
tered here and at the pluck and energy
with which they are met and partially over
COME"
AS to Connecticut hospitality, the visitors
said, after a description given of Mr.. H.
G. Rowe's extensive new warehouse: "Mr.
Rowe's domestic arrangements were found
not less complete than his business surround
ings, and his bountiful hospitality was
thoroughly enjoyed. His residence is on
Fair Haven Heights, overlooking the Quin-
nipiac river, where his business establish
ments are situated. The ladies of Mr.. Rowe's
household made it very pleasant for the visi-
tors, and were as much to home in the dis
cussions about starfsh as about the many
magnificent flowers which adorn the place.
The New England ladies shine as brightly
in their sphere, which is comprehensive, as
the men in their particular departments of
business or other pursuits"
While enjoying the delightful homemade
dessert at Mrs. Rowe's the subject of the New
Englander's fondness for pie came up. It
was stated that pie factories were among the
miscellaneous industries of New Haven, en-
ploying many hands. The pie factory of H.
Fl. Odds alone turns out many thousand pies
| daily. These factories ship pies all over New
England, to New York and to many other
| points. New Haven is a pie center as we'll as
| a local point of learning, refinement and aris-
| tocratic exclusiveness.

The remains of the murdered man found
on Sunday were given in charge of Under
taker Griswold, who brought them to
town and they were deposited in the tool
house at the cemetery. Coroner Mix came
up this morning, and it is probable that a
post-mortem examination will be made of
the body.
The box which contained the remains was
carefully examine, but no clue could be OBJ
tanned from it. The name of the party to
whom the box had been addressed having
been erased, the chances of discovering any
clue to the identity of the remains, or the
crime, are very slight, and it will go down
to add another to Connecticuts mysterious
murder cases.

They are always at the landing at steamer
times to greet their lady friends. The trip
from the city, which we made lately, was a
most exceptionally pleasant one in the fine
weather of the morning. The two hours
sail, or run rather, gives one delicious
taste of ocean air so filled with ozone that
it seems to give a recreation indeed. The
pleasant, genial landlord at Pot Island comes
down from his high, airy hotel to greet any
new guests arriving, to partake of his nice one
o'clock dinners. Mr.. s., from his island
Called the Outer Island), comes over in one
of his boats. His dock he is having strength
ened with timbers so that boats and steamers
can lay at it safely. From one who accepted
his invitation over, we learn that his rocky
summer retreat is a most charming place.

conveniently sheltered on all sides. One

the raspberry, whortle and blackberry bush
es leading to his watering place and to his
two picturesque convenient little cottages.
A fine copse of beech trees is near the land
ing. Rock-sheltered places for bathing are
on all sides of the island. The northern side
having full south exposure and good soil
affords an extensive lawn for moving and
pasture and vegetable garden. The fruit
trees, vines, currant, gooseberry, raspberry
and blackberry bushes flourish finely under
cultivation. The rocks rising behind and
around store up the SUMS heat SO that the
growth is like that in a dollhouse. No mos
quitoes, feas or English sparrows. The old
home birds of Connecticut-robins, cat
birds, yellowheads, chippy birds, larks,
swallows, thrushes-visit the grounds. The
graceful sumach trees lend a tropical look to
the place.

BranfOrd Yesterday.

BranfOrd Yesterday.
BRANFoRD, Aug. Crank McGovern,
aged about 80, of this place, was terribly
injured this morning. While the 7:3O a. m.
freight train from the east was doing some
switching here McGovern, with other shop
hands, jumped on for a ride. McGovern
jumped on the train and was struck in the
back by one of the switched cars. His hold
on the box car on which he was riding was
loosened by the collision and he fell over
backward. His feet caught in the iron step
of the car and he was dragged ten or fifteen
feet before the train stopped. His right foot
was nearly torn from the leg and his back
was injured. Conductor Kane saw him just
before the accident happened and shouted
several times that he was in great danger.
McGovern jumped off once in response to the
conductors orders, but climbed up again on
the car. His foot was amputated by the
doctors just above the ankle. Last night he
was doing as well as could be expected. Drs.
Zinc, of Branford, and Whittemore, of New
Haven, performed the amputation.

advance the price of stocks. The sales to noon
aggregated only 10000 shares. Lackawanna, st.

Northwestern were the strongest stocks During
the afternoon the market was weak, ana prices
sagged steadily to the close except in few cases.
The decline ranged from u to ~ per cent The
weakness of the afternoon was Que mainly to the

Messrs. Lewis & Co.:
Gentlemen-I have suffered with chi1ls
and fever and malaria for the past two years.
residing during that time at 793 Chapel
street, New Haven, Conn. 1 used quinine in
its various forms, and a great deal of it.
While I could prevent the chills, could not
rid my system of the poison. For some time
last summer 1 was SO weak that I could sit
up but very little. My countenance was sal
low and quinine failed to give me an appetite
or to act acceptably as tonic. In this con-
dition began the use of your Lewis Red
Jacket Bitters. Immediately I felt their
effects. In two weeks I was nearly in my
usual health I used two bottles since that
time Whenever I have a recurrence of
malarial symptoms I use few doses of the
bitters, an@I certainly consider them most
valuable remedy. They are my medicine.
Respectfully yours,
