Generosity OF a CelOred MaR who
Won 81 700 in the Louisiana state
Lottery.
Amos Marsh, the Orange IN. j. African
who won SO, 900 in the Louisiana State lot
terry the other day, doth not behave himself
at all unseemly, When he got the cash in
his hsnds-it came to him by the Adams Ex-
press company, and the freight was $60-hs
found the man who sold him the half of the
winning ticket and gave him $50. Having
relieved himself of this gift, the most fortu-
nate darkey Of his time proceeded to give his
son, a rather happy-go~lucky youth, who
does odd jobs about, something like 81, 200 or
81, 500, merely 80 a nest-sgg, as it were, to
future brood of as many thousands. Then
the delighted Amos the next day-he had
probably not slept wink In the night, with
all the money in the house-hired hack,
though the distance to the savings banks was
only two blocks away, and rode, with Mrs.
Marsh on the seat by his side, to make de-
posit. It had been the original idea of Amos
to buy two houses, not that he was not salts
fed with his present accommodations, but
because he thought that would be good in
vestnent to begin with; but his dusky mis-
that one of the bank officers, whom all the
people of the place knew as a kind and wise
man, should decide for them at their leisure
what should be done with the money.-New

The Contest for Congress.

From the West Haven Budget
The Republican congressional convention
of the Second district, which meets in the
Young Mems Republican club room in Mid
dletown Wednesday, Sept. 20, at noon, will
have a very important duty to perform. There
never has been time when the chances of
the Republicans in this district were bright
er. Dissatisfaction reisns in the Democratic
party over its candidate and the way he was
nominated. An obscure man, put up by
the worst ring in the party merely to defeat
a man who was the openly avowed enemy Of
the great wire-puller, Alexander Troup, Mr..
Wilcox will fall far below the party vote.
It behoOves the Republican party to noni-
nate man of irroproachable character, o
man who is not the tool of any clique or ring,
man who commands the highest respect of
the entire district, a man who il popular
with all classes of people, man for whom
cans should nominate candidate who will
draw to his side large share of the best
Democrats of the city of New Haven, and 30
throughout the district. His opponent may
be well enough personally, but his political
associations are bad. needs strong, clean
man to oppose him successfully.
In the crisis of the hour, the party can
find no better candidate than Senator James
Graham. He will unite the votes al no other
man can. He will poll hundreds of Demo-
cratic votes all through the district. He will
carry the party on to victory.
The delegates will go to the convention
unpledgsd. They will make calm, dsliber-
ate choice. We believe the result will be
favorable to the man whom the town of Or
ange presents. If 1t is, the party will surely
be successful. II it is not, the result will be
in grave doubt.

oHARnrr NEVER FA1LErH.

New Haven orphan Asylum Donation
Nay.
Thursday, October II, will be donation
day for the New Haven Orphan asylum. The
committee having the matter In charge have
issued the following appeal:
This distinctly home charity again makes
it's appeal to the sympathies of the people of
New Haven.
Each succeeding year its benifcent work is
enlarged in our rapidly growing city and its
financial needs correspondingly increase.
Although managed with the utmost care
and economy it requires the most liberal con-
sidsration on the part of our citizens in order
to keep pace with its increasing growth and
expenses.
The managers have never in the past asked
aid from our citizens in vain, and this year
again confidently appeal for a generous. re-
Spouse on donation day.
Members of the annual committee will
canvass the business places in the city as
usual, but any persons willing to contribute
and not likely to be called upon or expecting
to be absent on that day are earnestly re-
quested to hand in their offerings at any of
the banks, the postofice, or to any member
of the committee, or to remit the same by
mail to the president of the committee.

Surveys Being Mado-OPpositiOn to the
New Plan.
Surveys are being made of the western
breakwater by which it is proposed to fence
the outer harbor SO that vessels Of any draught
of water can safely lie at anchor behind II.
1t is proposed to construct the west breakwa-
ter in the shape of a right angle extending first
westerly two miles from LudinRton rock
buoy, thence norEherly over the Savin Rock
shoals one and Q quarter miles, close to the
vicinity of Oyster river. In the southwest
angle will be an opening ave hundred feet in
width for the entrance of vessels and this
with the passage between Southwest ledge
and Ludington rock will be the only means
of entrance and exit, excepting perhaps q
narrow rocky channel to the eastward.
The water where it is proposed to lay the
new breakwater has been carefully sounded
and the average depth found to be about Eve
fathems. The bottom Ia variable.
Some opposition among seamen Is already
noticed to this new move. The opponents
insist that the tides run at such a rapid rate
that 1t is extremely difficult to navigate sail
ing craft against them and If more break
waters are constructed with only the narrow
entrance proposed there will be absolutely
nothing left for the sailing craft to do when
approaching New Haven but to anchor and
patronize the towboats, for the tide viii run
as rapidly as a mlll race.
On the other hand, arguments coRent and
plentiful are cited to the contrary effect.

Mental Derangement the Cause.

As to the case of Miss Messuer, of New
York, who was supposed to have committed
suicide at No. 1 Sylvan avenue few days
ago, it is now about certain that she took
paris green while under mental arrangement.
Dr.. @. Purdy Lindsey was passing at the
time the woman was discovered in her dying
condition, and this is his opinion. Coroner
Mix said yesterday: The body was embalmed
this morning. To embalm body in one of
these doubtful cases before the medical ex-
aminer views It is gross violation of the
law. Who sthe guilty one cannot say
yet, for am not sure.
