People Enjoyed Yesterdays Fine Day
 mt Home-The Margaret's Sunday Trlps
 Excursionists were not numerous yesterday and everyone seemed to rather enjoy the fine day in the city than go off to the near resorts. It was one of the pleasantest summer days that we have had in long time, and every body appreciated it. About two hundred people, however, sailed to Pot Island on the Margaret and passed delightful day. This steamer will make another of it's Sunday trips tomorrow. A fine sail on the Sound will be had and an excellent chance given to hear the grand sacred concert on Pot Island between 3:S0 and o'clock in the afternoon. The meeting of the New Haven Yacht club at the Thimbles can also be witnessed by those on the steamer.

 Charles L. Noble of 137 Olive street takes two weeks' vacation this month in the beautiful village of Newington near Hart ford.
 The country owes him 8 large debt oi gratitude for four years faithful service in the war for our loved Union. As g Chris. tian soldier, as chairman of the Y. N. c. A. devotional committee, he for years sustained the regular monday prayer meetings, ready and efficient in all Christian work in and out of his church.
 To the devoted constant help of his diIi- gent Christian wife he owes, he says, his conversion and abiding Christian character. His health has suffered terribly from his long service in the army.
 Both himself and wife after years of worh without intermission, have richly earned this little summer vacation. In the army he was soldier brave and true, and a pattern in neatness and punctuality. This distinc ton was publicly accorded to him at ths grand review in Washington

No Reduced Fares on Governors Day.
 Applications have been made to General Passenger Agent Hempstead of the Consoli- dated road from people in Hartford, New Haven, Bridgeport and other cities for reduc- ed fares to Niantic and return on Friday, August "A, e'Governor's day." MT. Hemp stead has declined to sccede to these requests and gives these reasons:
 With the limited number of side tracks and the failure so far of the road to reserve land necessary for increased sidings it would be impossible to side-track the cars necessary to accommodate all who would take advantage of the reduced fares. The road with its pres ent depot accommodations at East Lyme found all they wanted to do to transport these who visited the camp and paid full fare. With the facilities at the depot it would not be possible to convey the people to their homes till long after midnight, which would be very unsatIsfactory. The officials of the road were in hopes that before another year additional accommodations would be had at East Lyme and excursion rates could be ar- ranged. The State encampment was a draw ing card and but for the lack of depot faciIi- ties the road would be willing to give the public reduced rates, when doubtless double the number who now visit the camp would avail themselves of the opportunity.

 From Paris Letter to London News.1
 The suicide in the Rue La Gurere bears the marks of genius. In 6 room whose windows were all closed a headless body was found lying upon rude guillotins. A note held in one hand of the dead man said it was useless to attempt to discover his iden- tity, for he had made arrangements which would prevent the head from ever being found. Sure enough tne body lay headless in closed room and the head could no- where be found. The man was buried as one unknown and the case bade fair to grow dusty in the pigeon-holes of the curator of mysteries. A few days after this event a peasant in Q department distant some two hundred miles away was attracted by pec- uliar object in the branches of tree. I'm pelled by curiousity he examined more close ly and found human head attached by 2 cord to small silken balloon. He reported the affair to the nearest sergeant of gendar- merle, and mysteries No. 2 was given due prominence. By combination of the two mysteries it became clear how the suicide disposed of the head, which being restored, served to identify him. But how the balloon, with the head attached, escaped from clos ed room none have ever been able to ex. plain.
