Inherited
 Diseases.

In the realm of disease the factS of 1n- heritance are most numerous and are daily accommodating. Here, alas, they become ter rible, Hateful and overwhelming. No fact of nature is more pregnant with awful mean ing than the fact of the inheritance of disease. It meets the physician on his daily rounds, paralyz;nG his art and filling him with dlsmay. The legend of the ancient Greeks pictures the Furies as pursuing families from generation to generation. rendering them deSplate. The Furies still ply their work of terror and death, but they are not now clothed in the garb of supersti- tfon; but appear id Me more intelligible but no less awful form ofhereditary disease.
 Modern science. whioh has illuminated SO many dark corners of nature has shed Q new light on the ominous words of the Scriptures, ''The sins of the fathers shall be visited upon the children unto the third and fourth generation" Instances of hereditary disease abound. Fifty per cent. of cases of consumption, that fearfGl destroyer of fami- lies, of cancer and scrofula, run in families through inheritance. Insanity is hereditary in 8 marked degrco, but, fortunately, like many other hereditary diseases. tends te wear itself out, the stock becoming extinct. A distinguished scientist truly says: "No organ or texture of the body is exempt from the chance of being tho subject of hereditary disease" Probably more chronic diseases, which permanently modify the structure and functions of the body, are more or less liable to be inherited. The important and far-reachIng practical deductions from such facts-affecting so powerfully the happiness of individuals an families and the collective welfare of the nAtion-6re obvious to refec- ting minds, and the best means for prevent. ing or curing theso diseases is subject of intense interest to all Fortunately nature has provided remedy, which experience has attestcd as iafaliible and the remedy Is the ldfamous 3wift's Specific, pure vegetable corlpoRnd-nature's antidote for all blood poisons. To the afflicted 1t Is 0 blessing of incstimab!e value. An interest ing treatise on Blood and Skin Diseases" will be mailed fires by addressing

BASE BALL.

The. Prime etons 10 Play the Yales To.
 Day-COnsiderable Anxiety for Yale.
 The first college championship game to be played in this city, and the second in the series, will be played at the Yale Field this afternoon between the Yales and Princetons. Which will win7 There seems to be great deal of anxiety on the part of some of Yale's supporters that she will not be victorious They have not forgotten that Princeton won the first game, and this will spur them on to make double efforts to win. But they for- get that the Yale boys will also make greater efforts than if they had won the game at Princeton last Saturday. They realize that should the game to-day be lost their chances for winning the flag will have vanished.
 Yale will not die without struggle. The team is still weak, as Moves is not able to play. The Yales cannot afford to be with out his services against such team as Princeton will present. There is little choice between the teams as to which will win. It seems to be an even thing. If the Yale boys win they will have to play good ball.

THE HEN AND EGG PROBLEM.
several Ways Of Reaching the Core

Several Ways Of Reaching the Correct
 Answer.
 The hen and egg problem which is going the rounds is proving 8 puzzle for 8 good many people. It is this
 If hen and a.hsls lay an egg and a-half in a day and a-half how many eggs will six hens lay in seven days
 There are several ways of figuring this. Try it by compound proportion, thus: 1E 1 dags: hsRs: 2 2 dsHs ds1s -11 eggs: eggs. ..
 ax'x7'
 
 2a
 Or this more simple method: "116 hens lay 116 eggs in 1h days. hen lays egg in ;16 days of.edays hen lays..eggs in..1Sdays or days. 6 hens lay exooeggs in days, i. e, hens lay 2s eggs in oays.'
 Here's another short and easy way to fig ure it. hens will lay egg, and 1 hen will lay in 1 day ---ef an egg Therefore heni in 2 days at the game rate of laying will lay 7x6x9S-2s eggs.'' This is another easy solution: In 11k days, 1L$ hens lay IS eggs In 11 days every hen lays egg. In day every hen lays twothirds of an egg. In day hens lay 4 egg.
 In days hens lay 28 eggs.
 Here's still another way of getting at it: If 116 bens lay 116 eggs in 156 days, 14 hen will lay 1 of 11S eggs fn the same time. which is 15 an egg, and whole hen would lay twice as much, or egg in 118 days If linen lays egg in 1h days, in K day she would lay # of an egg, and in one day of egg in one day, six hens would lay six times 25, equal to eggs, and in days hens would lay ines eggs, which is 26 eggs.-Hertford Times.

NEAR WEST HAVEN DEPOT.

Struck by a Br1dge-Death Of Brake
 man Byrnes.
 Yesterday morning Brakeman J. J. Byrnes met his death just beyond West Haven de- pot. Byrnes was the head brakeman on Con- ductor Searles' Harlem River freight train, which left this city on it's west bound trip about 1:35 yesterday morning. When the train reached Milford the absence of Byrnes was noticed by the other train hands and search was instituted, which ended in the finding of the body. The face was covered with ceagulated blood, which had flown from the extensive bruises and cuts on the head, and the features were so battered as to render recognition almost impossible. Between five and six hundred feet from the curve where the body was found, the lan- tern, broken to pieces, and the cap of the dead man were found. A heavy stringer on the east side of the bridge near by was cov- cred with blood, which showed the cause of death. The roof of box-car near the front of the train was also covered with blood, a fact which caused the train hands to think that after being struck by the bridge, the body was knocked back upon the roof and then rooled off. The coroner was summoned and upon investigation found that death had resulted from a fracture of the skull, caused by striking bridge. Deceased was about twenty-four years of age, unmarried, and Is thought to have belonged in Tomp- kinsville, Staten Island. He had been in the employ of the Consolidated road for some time and was very popular with his fellow brakemen. The body was removed to Lewis & Maycock's undertaking establish ment
 Another Brakeman Injured.
 Brakeman Mack of the Boston express freight which left this city for Harlem river about 9:45 o'clock Thursday night was crushed badly while coupling cars at Milford. It is feared that smputation will be neees- sary. After the injured man had his wounds dressed he was taken to his home at Harlem river.

AN INDUSTRY THAT WOULD PAY.
CORNER STONE TO BE LAID.

Bishop McMahon win Lay Tt To
 Morrow at the Sacred Heart
 Church.
 Tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock the cor ner stone of the addition at the Church of the Sacred Heart will be laid, Bishop Mo Mahon officiating. There will be large at tendance of clergymen from various parts of the diocese, and the societies connected with the church as well as the parishioners and Catholics generally throughout the city will be out in force. Rev. Father Mulcahy of the Church of the Immaculate Conception of Waterbury, the last pastor of the church, will deliver the address. The addition to the church is in the rear on the Liberty street side, and when it is completed will give much needed additional room and will permit of general alterations that will make the edifce one of the handsomest and most substantial religious structures in the State. The congregation is prospering handsomely under the ministrations of Rev. Father Mo Keon and Father Gibbons, and is receiving it's share of the large increase of population that has taken place in the Fourth ward in the past few years.

Sutton has been training under Gus Fills. The fight was for $500 a side and the gate receipts. Sutton was seconded by Bob Turnbul1 and Gus Zills of this city. Burns seconds were Johnny Files and Ike Williams. Joe Lannon of Bos- ton was referee. It was the most brutal prize fight in which two Connecticut men ever took part. Burns was whipped. At the finish both men were blind and their faces bruised past recognition. All who saw the fight pronounced it horrible sight. Many, including some New Haven men who went to see the fight, went on tug to the island from Bridgeport.
