THE LATE MIR. HOLFORD.
An Aged Veteran Gene-The Hast Sa,
 

An Aged Veteran Gene-The Last Sad Tribute.
 Tuesday at o'clock large number of the relatives and friends of Alexander Holford, who died on Saturday, gathered at the Town send residence to pay their last tribute of re- spect to a gallant soldier, good Christian and an exemplary citizen. Alexander Hol- ford was born in Scotland nearly sixty years ago and came to this country when a small boy. At the outbreak of the rebellion he en- listed in the Thirteenth Connections regi- meut, Company D, and served his term of three years, e-enlisted and was taken prisoner at Winchester, Va, and put in Libby and later in Salisbury prison. It is related of him that while in prison he was invited to play for some of the rebel officers to dance, he being @ skilled musician. Some important privileges were offered him as compensation, but he refused, declaring that he would sooner die in prison than play for the rebels. The deceased was an official member of the East side M. E. church. The funeral service was conducted by his pastor, Rev. s. D. Paine, who feelingly referred to his many good qualities. He leaves two children and five sisters to mourn his loss, besides host of friends and old comrades. Comrade Hol- ford's serious illness was feelingly mentioned at the Thirteenth c. v. reunion last summer and an appropriate tribute of sympathy was adopted by the meeting. His virtues will long be held in memory by his many old comrades in the service and his neighbors and townsnaen.
 For thirty-five years, except during his war service, he has had charge of the hand- some place of James NJ. Townsend, Esq, on Townsend avenue, and was esteemed as a faithful friend. Holford had policy in the Connecticut Mutual Insurance company, the premium of which was due September 30 at noon. MT. Townsend sent his check to MT. Alfred T. Richards, general agent, last Sat- urday, telling him that the beneficiary might die before the premium came due. Death occurred six hours before tho expiration of the policy, and the company returned the check to MT. Townsend for the benefit of the widow.

Davis, who will cut it up frontage of no feet, has been purchased by Mrs. William F. Hansel and Miss Niles. Mir. Pliny Jewell has taken 100 feet adjoining his property and the remaining 87 feet be- tween MT. Jewe1l's portion and the home stead is held by MT. Whiton. This lot Is one of the finest locations for residence in Hart ford and it probably will not be long in the market.

 OFF TO THE BAY STATE FAR-wALLINGFoRD's ENTERPRISE.
 The WallinRford grange shipped their dec- l orated boat, which has attracted so much at- tention at the different fairs where it has been l exhibited, to Springfield, Mass, yesterday | morning, to be shown at the Bay State fair. l With it went two two-horse wagon loads of fruit, vegetables and grain for the purpose of 1 decorating it on it's arrival in Springfield.

CHRYSANTHEMUMs.

Another Show Next November-PIants
 Tn New Haven.
 A meeting of the executive committee in charge of the chrysanthem um show to be given in the Polo rink on November IS, IA, 15 and 16, was held in Trinity church chapel yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Harry P. Nichols is president of the association and Miss F. 8. Ives is the secretary and treasurer.
 Last November about $500 potted plants were exhibited, and it is though there will be 5000 entries this year. Plants have done we'll the past season, and nearly all the cul- tivators have tried to raise prize plants. Be- tween $500 and $700 was netted last year and friends of the movement expect to clear at least $1 1000 from next months show. Last years fund was given to the Ladies' Seamens s Friends society and hospital out in Montana where there are a number of New Haven nurses.
 The idea of giving such show is very pop ular, especially in New York. About 5000 plants are in this city, which are of genus of composite plants mostly perennial and of many different species, and include the sun- flower and marigold. The plants, which in their tiny state can be purchased for $1 8 dozen in the spring, grow in @ season to 8 maximum height of twelve feet and bear beautiful blossoms. It begins blooming late in September and continues up to Thanks giving.

INDIAN PREACHER AT PUTNAm

He Tells Strange Stories of Himself,
 Rut is Endorsed by She Methodist Bishops.
 The Rev. Thomas Sunrise, a full-blooded Indian and once medicine man of the Oneida tribe of Indians of New York, has volun- teered to become the pastor of colored church that has been recently formed at Put nam. Sunrise has been sometime in Worces- ter, Mass, and his eventful life and his con- version make an interesting story. He says his life was shadowed when he was seven years old, and he was possessed with feel ing of sadness which he cou Id no drive away One day, in strange fit of fascination, he dressed himself up in bright colored clothes and ran into the woods, hoping 8 wolf or some other animal would find him appetiz- ing and thus end his wretchedness. The night of the game day found him still alive, and he prepared to sleep in hollow tree. It was here that he received 8 divine visita~ ton and was told to pray and to take off his gay clothes. He returned to the wigwam of his father-the ruler of the tribe-and was at once proclaimed the guardian angel of the tribe. Sunrise says he studied the gospel plan of religion, converted his own tribe and went on pilgrimage to several others, briAg- ing many to his belief. His creed is Metho- dist, and he is warmly commended by the bishops of that sect. He has been in New England only one month and, trusting the generosity of his people, begins without salary

Trinity Chimes.
By Rev. Phebe A. Hanaford.

IBy Rev Phebe A. Hanaford.l sat at my window listening, When the morning sun was high; While the flowers anear me blooming Swung their incense toward the sky. sat again at my window,
 While the shades of eve drew nigh; Ere the glow of Sabbath sunset Had gone from the western sky; And heard the same sweet chiming Of the bells upon the Green. And my prayers, like incense, upward Swung with the bells ween. Oh! the sweet and solemn chiming Ohl the voice of praise and prayeri My heart was filled with comfort As the music filled the air. Oh the bells of the Sabbath morningSi And the bells of the Sabbath eyes! On my heart blessed influence Their chiming sweetness leaves, And bless the unseen ringer; And thank the donor fair Who placed in the tower ancient The bells that call to prayer. Chime on. chime in music
 That speaks of the better land; Chime on till we join the chorus Of the saved and happy band; In Jerusalem, the golden,''
 Singing praises OCT and OCT, Where the shadows all have vanished, Where the flowers fade never more. Where the prayers are changed to praises Wken the work of life Is done, And the joy or joys is given
 With the welcomes one by one. Where the lamb his dear ones gathers, And the flock by him is fed, And through all the land celestial Not a tear of grief is shed. Cease not, oh bells your music; Let the chiming stir each soul, Till the tide of grateful gladness Ger listening hearts shall roll; For the chimes arc speaking truly As they bid us all rejoice, Since love and peace and praising Are the tones of music's voice.

Catarrhal Dangers.

To be freed from the dangers of suffocation while lying down; to hwethe freely, sleep soundly and undisturbed; to rise refreshed, head clear, brain active and free from pain or ache; to know that no poisonous putrid matter defles the breath and rots away the delicate machinery of smell, taste and hearing; to feel that the system does not, through it's veins and arteries, suck up the poison that is sure to undermine and destroy, is indeed blessing beyond all other human enjoy ments. To purchase immunity from such 8 fate should be the object of all afflicted. But those who have tried many remedies and physicians despair of relief cure.
 Sanfords Radical Cure meets every phase of Ca tarrh, from a simple head cold to the most Ioath- some and destructive stages It is local and consti tutiona Instant in relieving, permanent in curing, safe, economical and never failing.
