THE LOST BOY.
Found in the River, by Its Grand
father

Found in the River, by Its Grand
father.
The mystery of the past three days
concerning the whereabouts of the
little son of DR.. and Mrs. G.. T.. Fisher
of Austin, Is now cleared up. 1t is
mystery no longer, though the reality
is more sad and tragic than many
supposed it would be-. The child
was evidently drowned by falling
into the river, back of the residence
of its grandfather, Mr.. Sam G..
Bennett, on Dwyer avenue, in
stead of being lost In the colored
peoples procession, as its dead body
was recovered from the river this
morning at 10 o'clock by Mr.. Sam. Z.
Bennett and colored man named
Dudley Harris, who were out in boat
dragging the river. The body was
found in deep hole i'm which an
eddy had formed, in the rear OF
the Bennett residence and at
the foot of what in former times
was known as the 'old cotton
yard" Mr.. Bennett had held to the
belief that the child had fallen
In the river, and all the morn
ing had searched the river at
the point where the body was
finally found.
Immediately on finding the re-
mains Justice McA Ulster was sum-
mOned and began a coroner's inquest.
This he did not finish and says he will
not un til after the uneral. He has how
ever, endorsed the death certificate
that the cause of death was by
"Drowning in the San Antonio
river"
The parents of the child, who are
now supposed to be on their way
home, between st Louis and San An
tonic, were notified last night by
telegram of the disappearance of their
loved one, but have not yet
been notified of the sad finding of the
little corpse. The child was not yet
3 years of age. being only years, 10
and - days old.
Constable Maritime and Mr.. Arson
Bennett went over to New Braunfels
afternoon on Il supposed
clue that some Mexican cotton pick
ers had been seen there with the
child.
Manager Nixon, of Wells Fargo's
office, had furnished all his
on the cOmpany's lines
with descriptions of the child.
Detective ThavOnat had seven of
his detectives also working on the
case.

The l'arnell Defense Fund.

Last nights meeting of the Irish Nat ional league was the largest and most enthusiastic that has taken place in this city ln some time.
 The lecture of Senator EccleSine for Thursday evening was the principal top ic discussed and the following pro gramme of exercises agreed upon:
 The following societies will meet at the armory at seven o'clock. name ly The Waterbury Temperance society. the Y. M. C. l.. A.. the First, Second. Third and Fourth divisions. \. o. II.

Prcliminarics to Legislation to Kc-

 The senate will meet at noon to-mor- TOW and probably the names of senators appointed to the chairmanship of com mittees will be announced immediately thereafter. A statute provides that on the third Tuesday of January the seu- ators and representatives of each county shall meet in rooms designated by the speaker, each meeting to be called tC order by the representative who is senior in years, the object of each meeting being to appoint from their own mum Der two auditors, who will audit the accounts of the county commissioners county treasurer and jailer, and to dc other business proper to be done at said meeting.
 The house adjourned to Wednesday al l2 o'clock: consequently the county meet ings will probably be ad djourned. Tn, senior member from New Haven county is Henry l.. Welch of Waterbury. Prob ably Mir Welch will be in Hartford tt perform his duty, but if he is not some other representative from the county will call the meeting to order
 Immediately after the house convene: Wednesday, Speaker Perry will announce the committees, an, the next thing in order vii be assigning seats, which will occup, the entire afternoon. Very little legisla tive work will be done this week. bu next Tuesday all the lawmakers will b, ready to settle down to business.

Make It a Crime.

Judge Henney decides that a mere nominal fine for snapping pistol in fun at a fellow being will not answer. He must be tried for manslaughter. It is a crime to snap guns and pistols at people. Hundreds have been killed by firearms supposed to have been empty. A young man was killed in this city, Friday morning, in this way. The young man who aimed what he supposed to be an unloaded pistol at his friend sacrificed a life. He had aimed and snapped the pistol at others in fun. This time the fun turned to a fatal result. Muskets and shotguns are frequently found to be loaded, when there is not percussion powder enough on the nipple to explode the charge, and very often guns are discharged in this way, sometimes tear ing out window, or shattering a wall. It may be well for the legislature to make law providing that any person aiming sn unloaded gun or pistol at an other and snapping it shall be sent to jail for six months. A few examples would stop the dangerous practice.- Hartford Times.

DAMAGES FOR ISLANDER.

Brother O'Neiu Knocks Chip From
 Brother Burpce's Shoulder.
 The case of Police Officer John Byrnes against Joseph Corr, an action for slan- der, claiming damages of 5 ,000, occupied the attention of Judge Bradstreet in the district court to-day. The suit was the outcome of charge of intoXication pre- ferred against the officer last May by Corr. After a searching investigation the police commissioners declared the charge to be malicious and wholly with out foundation, and Byrnes immediately instituted proceedings in civil suit for damages.
 Contractor Cram of the Meriden, Wa terbury and Connecticut River railroad was the first witness called. His testi- mony like that of all the other witnesses except the members of the board of police commissionersAwas admitted by the court only for the purpose of showing malice on the part of Corr and not as an action to secure damages. MT Cram said that on the morning of May 17th Corr came to him representing himself to be re- porter of the Examiner, and asked him If he saw Officer Byrnes drunk on Dublin street. The witness said he had not and was told by Corr that he was drunk around the streets. At the police com missioners' meeting week later the wit ness was present and heard Corr testify that Byrnes was intoxicated and unable to get home. On the morning of the day in question Cram hal met and talked with the officer. and he was not under the influence of liquor.
 At this point Lawyers Burpee for the plaintiff and O'Neill for the defendant indulged in wordy war as to whether the former should be allowed to amend his pleadings. After hearing arguments 1t was decided to continue the case Judge Bradstreet limiting that which ever of the counsel was beaten on the question raised would be responsible for the cost of summoning the witnesses another day.

Dangerous Vegetables.

There IS light at last on subject of vast importance to all vegetable eaters It seems that q green vegetable is as surely injurious to health as green fruit But cooking will generally render a fruit harmless, while it will not do so for a vegetable A recent case of wholesale poisoning of French soldiers was traced to the solanine In unripe potatoes This esculent is poisonous more often than is supposed. If dug before maturity the tuber is by no means safe. But far worse is it to use potato for food that has, after being dug, been exposed to the light for any length of time. They should be stored in the dark as soon as dug. If bitter they should never be eaten. The more discoveries are made as to our health and to our sanitary needs the less we seem necs to true knowledge of the best conditions for sustaining health and life.- St Louis Globe-Democrat

The receipts amounted to $217, of which Day received $S6,S0, Sport" S54.25, Golden $43.40, Smith $21.70 and Sullivan $10.S5.
 Little Mickey Hughes, the Brooklyn clubs pitcher, who recently made a de- mand for a greatly increased salary for the coming season, suddenly found that he had made a mistake. No one seemed to think him justified in his demands, and he evidently thought so himself, for Saturday he called on President Byrne and signed contract for next year at the terms first offered him by the club.
 Says Syracuse correspondent of the Sporting Life: The first man to sign a Syracuse contract for 1888 was Joe Battin, the veteran guardian of that most difficult of all infield positions, the third bag. Battin's reputation as ball player is worldwide, and requires nc comment. Suffice it to say that Battin is the best man that ever played the position for Syracuse, and the Syracuse people have no anxiety in regard to the old ''eyesore'' of by-gone days, the third bag
