TO bridgeport ON the Fourfh-To
Turn ont in Large Numbers-The
sGsons,, Fully Equipped-The Naval
Parade and Reception.
Next Wednesday, the Fourth of July,
promises to bring one of the grandest gala
days that the Veteran Firemen of this city
have ever enjoyed, it being an excursion to
Bridgeport by invitation of Pacific engine
company of that citaM to attend tho celebra-
ton there, which will undoubtedly be one OF
the finest that Bridgeport has ever seen. The
Vets will go with full ranks, taking with
them their old Volunteer" which has done
good service in days gone by in saving prop
erty in this city. They will also be accom-
panied by the famous Second regiment band,
probably the finest in the State The "Sons"
will also go with their "daddies" 6fty strong,
taking with them their own drum corps and
their beautiful four-wheeled hose carriage
trimmed deliberately for the occasion. The
Pacifcs are sparing no pains or expense in
preparing grand reception for the old Vets,
exceeding anything they have heretofore at
tempted in catering to their guests. The
marine parade on the evening of the Sd will
probably be the finest ever seen in New Eng
land, fully two hundred vessels, both large
and small, including several United States
men-of-war, participating. The fireworks
particularly will be worth many miles Of
trav.l and expense to view. The hotels are
already booked to their fullest capacity to
entertain the visitors who will assemble in
that city on the occasion of the biggest
Fourth Of July celebration ever seen there.
The rooms of the Vets are crowded every
evening making their final arrangements for

pIranta For Entrance to Vale.

A Trying Time For the Noble 3I5 As.
pirants For Entrance to Yale.
About 315 aspirants for admission to Yale
were in town yesterday undergoing the ordeal
of examination. OF this number POS were
trying the examinations for entrance to the
academic department In Alumni and Broth-
ers halls there were 175, and in the presidents
lecture room (Old chapeD 80. Professors
Richards, Seymour, Wright and Dexter were
in charge of those in Alumni hall, and Pro-
feesors Sumner and Newton looked after those
in Old chapel.
The questions yesterday were on the fol-
lowing subjects: Virgil, Latin grammar, ge-
ometry, Xenophon, Roman history, Greek
grammar and composition.
The boys were glad it was cool day and
not last Saturday, but despite the cold snap
they were hopping their brows and looking
intensely weary before the days task was
over.
In Alumni hall each applicant was seated
at little octagonal table-those who pass
win come in contact with these tables eight
times more in their nfe-furnished with q
cork inkwell, pen and any amount of FOOLS
cap. Tutors to the number of six walked
about among the boys seated at the tables to
detect if possible any ''skinning."
Many of the applicants are accompanied
Dy IaSneT OF mObn6r, OF DOLn, anu Cu0 teacH5r
who has prepared them for Yale. These
people sat under the tent near the entrance
to the hall, and as their scions came forth
after each examination they, were questioned
as to how each question had been answered.
Over in North Sheffield hall 107 more boys
were trying to pass papers on Latin exsr-
cises, Cesar English, plain, solid and spher-
ical geometry. geography, algebra and Unit
ed States history.
Examinations were held yesterday at Con-
cord, N. H.; Exeter, N. H.; Andoyer, Mass;
EAsthampton, Mass: Norwich, Conn; New
York city, N. Y; Albany, N. T.; Pittsburg,
Pa; Cincinnati, o.; Chicago, ILL.,; San Fran

are being examined for the Sheffield Scien-
tiic school and about twice that number for
the academic department.
The incoming class will probably number

and Geyser lake. After boring through
solid rock nearly three hundred feet in 1866
this spring was struck and has been largely
uatronized ever since by those troubled with
biliousness, kidney and liver diseases, dys-
pepsia, rheumatism. govt, etc. This water
other spring, and is especially valuable to
those afflicted with sick headaches and indi-
gestion.
The Washington Spring, located on Broad
way just opposite Congress Park, is used as
tsnightcapn by many. 1t is strongly inn
than any other of the Saratoga waters. II also
contains large per cent. carbonic gas and is
soraetines called the Champagne Spring.
This water is especially beneficial to female
complaints and to those requiring more iron
in their system. It is not beneficial to those
subject to headaches or heart diseases and
should be avoided; but for dyspepsia, chron-
ic diarrhoea and general debility this water
cannot be too highly priced. The Saratoga
Vichy Spring is under canopy near Gey-
ser lake It was discovered in 1872. After
drilling $50 feet, 100 of which was solid rock,
this water is conducted from its source
to the surface through glass lined
perfectly pure. This is the only
entire soda or alkai spring in Saratoga, and
for stomach complaints it is highly valuable,
and can be drank in reasonable quantities
with perfect safety.
Many more are the springs in Saratoga,
each having its special value as curatiyes,
and each one must be used with discretion
and at proper times. It would be quite ir-
rational for one to swallow whole box of
pills at once when he had been told that one
Or two was a regular dose for his complaint,
Just so unreasonable and unnatural is it
for one to imbibe any of these mineral wa
ters continually from morning to night or to
take too many glasses at a single sitting with
the expectation of receiving lasting benefit
Very few persons require over from one to
three.
Saratoga presents medley Of attractions,
gilded barrooms, elegant sample rooms, morn
| ing prayer meetings, and as usual is great
place for holding denominational, sanitary
and other conventions.
The Congregational and Baptist annual
| conventions have already occurred here, and
were attended by an unusually large number.
| Much business of special interest to those de-
nominations was accomplished.
| The Continental Hotel had very large
number Of guests attending the conventions,
| and have already quite number on their
| books who are expected in short time to
| tarry at this fayorite hotel for a season.
In visiting Saratoga it Is always the best
| plan to engage accommodations at the hotels
some time in advance otherwise patrons run
great risk of being unpleasantly situated
This year being one of unusual interest to
politicians, and Saratoga always being their
great camping ground, perhaps hint in
that direction might be taken in a kindly
spirit by those contemplating visit here.

DENVER, Col, June 16, 1883.
To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
AS a native of your fair city, and being
now at Denver, will send you few lines to
publish in your estimable paper if you wish.
This city reminds me of New Haven in many
ways. There are more churches to the pop
ulation than in any city of the Union except
Brooklyn. They number about sixty-eight.
At the same ti@e not more :han half the
people attend church.
The liquor question is handled in a very
different manner here than in the East, and
7 should say in much better way. Saloons
are licensed in three separate grades-irst,
until 10 o'clock; secord, until 2, and the rest
for all night. Sunday is the same any
other day TO them.
In e week have not seen as much disor-
der as 1 have during the same time at home
The theaters are open on Sunday as on any
week day, and play to full houses. The peo-
pie are very social. A stranger can come
here and make many fms friends in a short
time You can judge how busy place it is
from the fact that it has population of
twenty thousand souls and is only thirty
years old.
All kinds of people are to be seen here on
the streets-the Italian fruitrstand keeper,
the Chinese laundryman with his two baskets
strung on pole over his shoulder, cowboys
and their horses riding like tbs wind and
stopping for no one, not even for the Mayor.
A lady here is shown much more respect
than she is in the East. For instance, if
lady gets into street car, however she may
be dressed, man OF boy occupying q seat
will Immediately get mp and offer it TO her,
and all ''as merry as a marriage BELL" You
can't say that of your so-called eastern gen.
tlemen.
This would be fine place for any number
of your old maids, and for sweet charity's
sake at least send all you can this way.
There are many buildings being erected,
and all of brick made near by. There Is
much fine stone, durable and easy of access,
granite and sandstone in many varieties;
marble and good imitation of Ohio stone.
The brick here are~much softer than the Con-
necticut brick.
A wooden building is rarity. All are
made Of stone or brick. In trade you seldom
see any change less than five cents. haven't
seen q one, two or three cent piece since I
came here. All vegetables are sold by the
pound, and fruit can be bought by the pound
or dozen.
The thermometer stands 90 deg in the
shade to day. One doesn't feel it as much as
70 deg. at home. It is dry air and not a
sultry heat.
If you can get anything out of this sorawl,
very good; if not-good bye. F.

A young Salvadorian, with the dark eyes
and inky hair of his country; talked to a
Mail and Express reporter yesterday about
the Central American banana tree. The
tree ie two and one-half to three feet in cir
conference at Its base. It's tapering fbrous
body, without a branch, ia from ten to fifteen
feet in height. The hbres, separated by q
thin pith, are as long as the body of the tree
These fbres are used in Salvador, just as
they are taken from the tree as shoestrings
and as cords for all purposes. The natives
use them largely for bride reins and lariats.
The raw material costs only transportation
to the rOpe-walks. Each banana tree bears
in the twelve months of its existence only
one bunch OF fruit, but from two to ten
trees spring from the roots of the one that
has fallen. In Salvador the bunch of banan-
as is worth fifteen cents and the dead tree
nothing. A cordage factory, or paper mill
or coffee-sack maker, were not the dead
trees nlmberless, would give for each tree
ten times the value of the fruit it has pro-
duced. Split, dried and packed, the bodies
of the banana trees might be shipped prof.
tably to the United States; but there is no
should not take them in hand and ship to
Salvador the proper machinery for their
manufacture, as labor is fully two-thirds
cheaper there than in New York.
For the accomplishment of this end q
special concession and exemption from GUS
toms charge would be easily obtained. In
Salvador ropewalks are found in unfrequent-
ed streets and suburban roads. The native
machinery consists OF crank attached to an
upright board, with which native boy
twists the fbres of the banana aud cactus.
A man skilled in the ropemaker's art splices
the ibres together, adding to the length and
thickness of the revolving cord.
The stem of each banana leaf consists of
the toughest and finest threads, and these
leaves, two and one half and three feet wide
and ten to fifteen feet long, resting on the
heads of native women, are umbrellas in the
rainy season in roofess market places and
streets of Salvador. These are the carpets
on which the people sit and the beds on
which they sleep. There is fine opportu-
nifty, said the Salvadorisn, for some enterpri-
sing American with small capital to do q
cling western ideas and machinery to the
people of Salvador.
