MERIDEN ROAD ACCIDENT.
One of the Witnesses Given Pri-
 yate Hearing by Coroner Pond.

One of the Witnesses Given q Pri-
 vate Hearing by Coroner Pond.
 There was excitement in Meriden yester day afternoon when Andrew Dalton, one of the witnesses examined by Coroner Pond in his investigation of the Meriden, Waterbury & Connecticut River railroad accident, asked to be examined in private Dalton has wood yard near where the accident occurred. He was the man who had the broken point of the switch in hand when Superintendent Crawford ar rived on the scene. Coroner Pond will not state what his testimony was, All that could be learned from Dalton was that Pond had failed to make an expert of him.
 Car Inspector Gilbert of the road, who was passenger upon the wrecked train, told of the sensations produced, about the condition of the switch and how he found the men under the wreck. 0. F. Linsley and w. Irving Wilcox, both passengers | bound for Westfeld, told their experience, which was nothing remarkable for such an ucoasien,
 Superintendent Crawford was called into the room and he was examined pri- vately. That closed the investigation MT Pond said that he would not hand in his report for several days. It is believed that the deputy coroner knows about as much now ds whea he began the investi. gation.

RARBFD WIRE FENCES.
There Will be Great Tearing Do
 in

There Will be q Great Tearing Down
 in That Line.
 A law which passed the last legislature without much discussion and goes into effect August is likely to make heap of trouble i'll the near byandby. It reads as follows
 Section 1. No person or corporation shall make use of any barbed wire upon existing fences between their own premises and those of any adjoinins preptietoI with in twenty-five rods of any house or barn belonging to such proprietor, without first obtaining his written consent thereto.
 Sec }. Any person or corporation who shall violate the provision of this act shall be fined not more than one hundred dot lars.
 Twenty-Five rods means over four hun dred feet and is considerable stretch of distance. Under the law any farmer or other resident whose house or barn is passed by railroad can compel the com. pany to take up its barbed wire fence if il comes within four hundred feet of his buildings. If the company cannot get hil written consent the barbed wire fence must go. It certainly gives the real estate holders most ample opportunity te worry the railroads if they wish The railroads have used miles upon miles Gl barbed wire for fencing, and now sud denly it is made unlawful except by writ ten permission. Probably in many cases things will go on as before, but if anybody wants to worry the roads or to blackm ai them, here is a chanos

SURVEY oF 'tHE STATE.
The Sclectmen Re ceiSe u Letter Frol
 the Comm issioners.

The Selectmen Re ceiVe u Letter From
 the Comm issioners.
 DrJ. H. Chapin of Meriden, Professor Brewer of New Haven and John w. Ba- con of Middletown, the commissioners of the typographical survey of the state, have sent to the selectmen of towns throughout the state the following letter, which ex- plains itself:
 The act passed by the last legislature (a copy of which is enclosed) calling for a typographical survey and map of this state provides that town and county boundary lines be indicated thereon
 This assumes that the aforesaid lines are established and so marked that they can readily be found.
 The survey and map will be made by the United States geological survey at the joint expense of the state and the United States, and the survey has now actua lily been commenced.
 The representatives of the general gov ernment very properly decline ta locate and settle town lines whars they are not established by the local authorities. Where there Is any unsettled question as to local boundaries, neither the United States engineers nor the state commis- sioners have any authority whatever to settle it, nor have they the authority to designate Garna}a or ansles not already properly marked
 Will you please advise us at your earliest convenience whether all the born lary | lines of your town are so establishtd, in apcordahce with the provisions of Sc. t ons 1 1S2, 183 and 1894 of the general statutes of | Connecticut, and whether the corners and angles are so marked that they can readily be found by the engineers2 ] if not will you take immediate measures | to have the corners and angles so establish ed and marked? Otherwise the lines cannot be put upon the map.
 It is to be understood that the entire line need not be run if all the corners and angles are plainly marked. Where a stream or public highway separates two towns the points where boundary leaves the stream or road needs to be plainly in l dicated

 NASHVILLE, Tenn, July 2.-The state. ment that Mrs Heron. wife of an American missionary, was sentenced to death in Ccfea IS now denied. It can he said on the pest ot authority that Mir. Herou is not a preacher but q doctor; that no nob,enan ha |. been converted, and that Mrs. Heron has not oeen arrested. On the Contrary. she and her husband enjoy the; confidence of the King of Corea,
 W WAsH1NGToS, July e5.-In an interview to-day Dr. H. NJ. Allen, Secretary of the Corea Legation, an American who spent many years In Coretl suid that there could not possibly be any truth lu the story that Mrs. Heron, tho wife of an American mis- sionary to Corea, had been condemned to death for teaching Christianity
 He Said that such thing could not be done there without making big sensation aud that tho American Minister would cer- tainly know of of 1t ard in form his Govern ment
 Mrs. Heron, he said was not missionary or preacher any way. Dr. Allen said that the practice of Christianity was 0 capital crime in Corea but the law was now Q deaG letter. It had been enacted against the Jesuits whom the Coreans thought were trying to control the Government, Ameri- can missionaries are preaching in the country and are net disturbed.

COLONEL DOHERTY UPHELD. Captain Callahan of tho Sarsfields
 Expresses Himself Freely.


 Speaking of the appointments of Col Doherty, the New Haven Register last night said: The criticisms published about the appointments did not meet with uni versal approval, and 1t seemed to be the general opinion that no officer ill the regl ment had offered any such opinion Gap tain Callahan of the Sarsfields conversed freely about the matter. He said:
 ''I do not believe that any man in the regiment would be so unmilitary as to criticise the appointments of the colonel Every military man knows that the col onel makes his own choice of staff. He IS not obliged to consult anybody. It is bet ter thus, for were he to consult Tom, Dick and Harry he would be certain to displease somebody. It is all foolishness to con- plain because New Haven is not better represented on the staff. Col Doherty s home is in Waterbury and it is only prop CT that he should appoint his principal officers from the same city. Did they come | from New Haven or any other city It would necessitate good deal of trouble Ill order to consult them, and the colonel ot a l regiment is freaue "tly obliged to consult | the officers of his staff,
 ''The trouble seems to be that some peo- pie think military offices are to be deai' out as political offices are, but 1t Is not so 1 The appointments are made with the ob ] feet of advancing the interests of the resl ment, and no doubt this is the only object Col Dohetty had in view. He Is too gooc an officer to entettaiR other motives; and if there are any men in the regiment who are not satisfied, am sure they will Set 1 that he has done right when they come tt think the matter over."

During the time that the front of our store is closed for repairs, our customers will find our entrance door in Market Place where Nuhn & Meyers market used to be. Go down the passage between Hawley's hat store and Chase's millinery store from Exchange place or between Rametti's shoe store and Casey's hat store from East Main street and you cannot help finding it.
 As an offset against the lncon- venience to which we are obliged to put you, we have decided to give cash purchasers our entire profits during the time the front is closed.
 Therefore on each and every cash sale made during this time we will give discount of 10 per cent from our regular retail prices.
 This applies to our entire stock of goods in every department, and as our goods are all ticketed in plain figures, you will see that there has not been a mark-up on anything.

Lew Johnson's Colored Minstrels
played one night at the Concordia
to standing room only, every seat
being sold before the doors opened.
Those who witnessed the entertain
ment will remember it as one of
the grandest features in the min
strel art. The end men were the
center of attraction and succeeded
in keeping the house in a constant
uproar. Senator Hamdin created
great deal of amusement with his
comic specialties, and as a dialect
comedian he is a success. S. F.
Jackson, as tenor singer, is hard
to beat. The singing rendered by
the Black Boy Quartette made an
excellent impression, especially the
Ballad Baby is Laughing III Her
Sleep" which took the house by
storm. AS a talented mirth-pro-
voking troupe Lew Johnson's Col
orec Company is a success.-Spo-
