1t is quite scientific arrangement
and works easily. When the penny is
placedsin the box it acts on a spring
which throws open the slide lid, dis
closing the hymn book. The penny
drops down secret slit in the lid and
is hidden from view and secured from
removal. 1t seems almost like reflec-
ton on the worshipers, for the auto
matte beauty of the workmanship is
that the door or lid cannot be shut I'M
til the verger himself takes tine coin
out, when the hymn book is replaced
and the door is fastened. There is also
an Indicator inside the box which shows
how many coins have been put in, so
that even the verger has to be honest.
What the future of the ''SlOt" and

KILLED ON THE TRACK.

John w. O'Connen Meets Death on
 the New England Road.
 John w. O'Connell, aged 9 years, was killed by freight train on the New England road near the gas house about 3:3O o'clock yesterday morning. Ills body was horribly mangled and death must have been instantaneous.
 Just how the unfortunate young man happened upon the track Ill time 10 be struck by the train is not known. The Washington express going north passed the place where the fatality occurred only fifteen minutes ahead of the freight and the track was clear. OConnell and another young man climbed into box car that was standing on siding Ill the New England yards to sleep Saturday night and it is believed that the latter was awakened by the Washington eX- press, and while in a half dazed condl- tion stepped through the open door of the car and fell upon the track where he met his death.
 Engineer Mccarthy, who was in charge of the freight, saw the prostrate form upon the track, but was unable to stop his train in time to avert catastrO- phe. The body was dragged nearly one hundred feet under the engine and was horribly mutilated The remains were taken to the station where they were identified. Medical Examiner AXtelle was notified and gave permission for the removal of the body to the home of the unfortunate mans father, Andrew O'Connell. 45 South Riverside street. The remains were to-day taken to Westerly, k. l. for interment.

Kemarkab ble Cyclone Relic.

E. S. Wilson, a blacksmith of Ozark, Mo, has relic of the Marshfield cyclone, which occurred on Sunday, April IS, 1880, that is very remarkable curiosity. This wit ness of one of the freaks of the great storm is black quart bottle, bent by some mys- terious force into an elliptic circle, without crack or break in the glass that the closest scrutiny can discover. The neck of the bottle actually touches the edge of the bottom, and the fact that the glass was not broken in any way by the strange force of the storm is shown by the test of its hold ing water or any other fluid. By grad ually turning the bottle as the water is poured in 1t can be nearly filled to it's full capacity, so as to show the perfect soundness of the material. This bottle was found by MT. Wilson the day after the Marshfeld disaster and examined by Prof Tice, who soon came to the scene of de- struction to study the phenomena of the cyclone from scientific stand point The famous meteorologist attributed the bend Ing of the bottle to the force of electricity and considered this one of the most won derful results of the mighty agency at work lp the storm-cloud. The bottle was found in the wreck of one of the Marshfield drug stores. MT. Wilson has been offered ex- travagant prices for the curiosity, but de cines to part with the relic.

Tough on the Men,

At the Beers street church, New Haven, last night, Rev MT Wheeler gave sermon for the benefit of young women. Among other things he said Never marry perfect man, for that kind of a man is fraud. The woman who shackles herself to one of this stamp gets magnificent nothing. No man is perfect, and those men who are always claiming to be perfect are dangerous have had dealings with men of this stamp and always got cheated. If they are perfect, then you are imperfect, and will not get along. Don't marry for wealth; nor for beauty. Beauty is only skin deep, and the wealth of man is his integrity. A banks capital may be S5O,OOO and it's deposits S2,OOO,OOO. but the value of the bank is only $50, 1000. A man may have deposits to his credit, but he is worth just what his honor and in- tegrity are based on. A person should marry for love and should marry one who tries to be a Christian. One-half of the men in New Haven are not fit to marry,

HENRY wILTON's DEATH.
An Old Waterbury Resident Killed bl
 tho Cars in BfidGcport.

tho Cars in Bridgeport.
 Henry Wilton, a well known resident of this city, having been employed at Benedict & Burnham's for nearly twenty-five years, was killed by a train on the Consolidated railroad near the Naugatuck junction at Bridgeport yes terday morning. Mir Wilton went to Stratford Saturday to visit relatives, but on arriving there he found that his friends were not at home. Yesterday morning he concluded to return to this city on the first train he could catch. He was informed that the S:15 train out of Bridgeport did not stop until it reach ed the junction. As Wilton was anx- ious to reach home he was driven to the bridge by Liveryman Philo Osborn, of Stratford, and started across the foot path. Before he could reach the east end of the bridge the train came laundering along. He evidently thought he was going to miss it and running out on the west bound track made an attempt to board the train. He missed his footing and was hurled under the wheels. Both legs were broken below the knees and his skull was badly fractured.
 The train stopped at the junction, and word left to have the injured man re- moved to this city. He was alive when picked up, and taken to Bridgeport on the train due at $40 from New Haven. Before the train reached the depot Wilton died. The remains were re. moved to the morgue and lay there the greater part of the day unidentified They were finally recognized by mar who resides in Stratford and knew the deceased. Wilton was apparently about 50 years of age and was we'll dressed The body was not very badly mutilated The remains came to Waterbury to-day and were taken to the family residence | on Carman street

AN IMPROBABLE YARN.

4 Chicago Man Too Bashful to Talk to .
 Pretty Widow.
 "1 know It's the general supposition and the rock bound belief on tho part of the most women that really hashful mon don't exist anywhere off the farm" said South side man to d Chicago Herald reporter, but know one woman who is convinced that bashfulness can flourish and become confirmed right here Tn the city, with the board of trade as a stamping ground.
 '"The lady 1 speak of is q charming young widow who lives With her pal ents ill an el9> gant residence away out south. The bash full gentleman has boou acquainted with this pretty little widow for q good while, and a short time ago asked her to go to the theater. Idon't know how he ever nerved himself up enough to make the request, but he did, and the young woman's father, who is quite friendly with the bashful man, sug gestcd that they use the family carriage. So he rode down to the mansion on the Hi nois Central and the elegant carriage of the widows father rolled up to the front door to take them to the play house. The widow was handed in and settled herself in the back seat. Then the bashful man, to her surprise, took a seat directly opposite her, and the carriage rolled out on tho
 boulevard and toward the city.
 ''The pretty little widow exhausted all the arts of which she was possasked-and, being widow, you may believe they were numerous-to apprise the bashful man of the fact that it would be proper for him to take seat by her side, but he was moro afraid of her than he ever was of panicky wheat market. The widow wanted to laugh, and yet she felt silly, sitting over there alone, with carriages passing, whose occu- pants could see her isolation. All her hints, however, were of no avail, and she finally said:
 Mr., if you arc quite convinced that will not bite, please sit over here. It looks much better. You can snuggle into your own corner if you want to and go to sleep will not bother you
 "He complied, d,stammeringly and crouched into his corner all the way to the theater, re. spending with hesitating monosyllables tc her efforts at conversation. The homo trir was just as bad
 "And this man is one of the brassiest bro kers on the floor of the Board of Trade"
