 Enth usiasm.
 There was a small attendance and very lit- tie of the old time enthusiasm at the Polo rink last evening over the game between the New Haven and Meriden polo teams. Polo is evidently on the wane as far as this city is concerned. The game started in a listless fashion and Meriden succeeded in making the first two goals before the New Ravens fairly woke up. After this the New Ravens bracsd and won the game with ease The playing of Lampkin at goal for the Meridens was the feature of the game, he making no less than twenty-three stops at goal, some of them be- ing difficult ones. Newcomb and Connors played good passing game and Valiant at center blocked we'll. The spectators expected to see rough game, but in this they were disapnointed

Fire over Jeacott,. PaInt Store

Yesterday morning little after o'clock fire was discovered in the second story of the wooden building on the northeast cor ner of York and Elm streets. The second floor is occupied by Samuel Harper, who first discovered the fire in small room adjoining the chimney, which was full of clothes. The
 fire department quickly responded to the alarm. The fire caught from defective chimney and lasted about half an hour. E. R. Jeffcott's paint store and Wing Sings Chi- nese laundry, which occupy the lower floor, were badly damaged by water. One side of the building had to be cut away in order to get at the chimney. The building belongs to Capt. James Baldwin of Woodbridge. The damage will probably not exceed s75 and is wholly covered by insurance held by John G. North, Gardner Morse and Weld & Son.
 The losses by the fire were appraised and adjusted most promptly by the insurance agents, John G. 6 John O.. North. William R. HubbeIl ot Hubbell 6 Merwin, builders, and Kenney & Phelps, builders, were the ap- praisers on the building and fixed the loss at about $360. Messrs. Jeremiah Wolcott and John H. Platt were the appraisers on Jeff eott's stock The amount fixed was not learn ed, but was satisfactory, and one policy was paid yesterday afternoon.

met his eye which filed him with delight
and amszement. Delight to witness
William Penn. Jr., his i've -year-old- boy,
standing in the path of q homemade
Itsendbsg, striking out vigorously from
the shoulder, now right, now left, now
ducking to avoid blow, then squsring
himself and delivering with immense eff
feet the celebrated round blow of Sulli-
van with the right and following it with
the upper cut most scientifically exc
cuted. Amusement at the spectacle Of
the pacific wife Of his bosom coaching

Fine employment, this, for one. who
wishes every knife and pistol was at the
bottom of the Sea, and who thinks sits 8
shame that men don't settle their disputes
by arbitration instead of going to war;"
"Are you through" mildly inquired Mrs
Cooley, when her husband paused to
catch his breath, ''for il you are will
take pleasure in explaining my seeming
inconsistency. While would suffer
death rather than kill another, 1t is plain
to me that our boy is of different nature,
quite different; in fact, as he is very i'm
pulsive and hot tempered and quick to
resent an injury. Now, my dear,
while am southern woman, and have
heard all my life that "gentlemen do not
fight with their fists" am certain it is
high time they fought just that way, If
they can't settle their differences in some
other manner; and 1t does seem as ii they
were going to fight and war to the end OF
the chapter"
"Penn is now boy, and If he lives,
will one dav come in conflict with other
boys, and ultimately with men, and I In
tend, by the grace of God, that he shall
have such home training that when he
goes out into the world he will not only
be too brave and manly to use deadly
weapons upon his fellows, but by the means
of defense which nature has provided
Ehim, be superior to the cowardly preteXt
which is so often made use of to justify
