Affecting One of His Sons.

" ms 1nHW Le1L u OoulCH 10 h1e VIII,
Affecting One of His Sons.
A codicil to the will of William Thaw
has been discovered, which will mar the
prospects of one of the legatees. The codicil
revokes the specified bequest to Harry Ken
dali Thaw of an equal participation in the
estate with the other children. The clause
which thus alters the will reads as follows:
With great regret and reluctance, and solely
from sense of duty, hereby cancel and re-
woke any and all provisions of my said will
directing the payment Of money or property to
my said son.
The codicil subsequently provides that
H. K. Thaw is to be paid 50, 400 annually,
free of assignment or charges, and adds that,
if he should convince the trustees by his
steady and upright habits that he is capable
OF taking care of the original bequest, the
said trustees are empowered to give him the
sum originally devised,

Most people are very particular as to
what kind Of soap they use for toilet pur-
poses, but pay no attention as to what their
linen is washed with; this is all wrong, as
it cannot be healthy to wear clothes washed
with vile mixtures of diseased animals,
rosin and lye. Avoid all danger by having
your linen washed with Walkers wax soap.

TIE ARSENIC ROUTE FAILED.
The Young Woman Who Tried is May Re-
cover-No Cause Asrfrued.

DIR. w. =. Edmundson was seenslast night
with reference to the case of Leonora Del
ayen who took q heavy dose Of alleged pure
arsenic Yesterday. The doctor has been in
attendance on Miss Delayen since the first
symptoms Of pain appeared, and he says
that the chances of recovery are all in her
favor. He doubts very much that the
arsenic sold by the druggist was pure, as
Miss Delaven herself told him she bought
an ounce, and only paid cents for il.
"Five cents" the doctor continued.
"seems to me to be suspiciously cheap for
pure arsenic. I should not wonder If the
poison were adulterated. / examined what
was left over, however, and there was about
half an ounce, and it appeared to be quite
pure. I did all I could for the girl, and
administered several powerful antidotes.
When last saw her she was complaining
of burning in her throat and in the pit Of
her stomach Her tongue was quite moist
This looks as though the pains were caused
by some mustard and salts administered,
and not by the poison. There are no signs
of fever, either, and that Isl a very good SYM
tom. Miss Delaven is Of naturally robust
constitution. I can give no cause for ner
strange act, as in my character of physician
could not ask her for any. 1 know she is
rather headstrong and impetuous young
lady, and apt to DO things which she would
be sorry for afterwards. ! think she will
pull through all right"

4 Social Event on Pearl Street Last
 EvenIng-A Beautiful Testimonial
 From she l.. c. U. Whist Club.
 Mir. and Mrs. B. N. Grifing celebrated the tenth anniversary of their wedding at their residence, 26 Pearl street, last evening by en- tertaining the L. 0. U. whist club, of which they are members. During the evening they were presented with large engraving, hand somely framed, from the club. The present ation was wholly unexpected and complete surprise for the recipients. It was conveyed to MT. and Mrs. Grifing in an ornate, elo- quent and most felicitous speech by Lawyer Wagner in behalf of the club, the advocate doing full justice to the hour and occasion. It was very happy effort. The response, though not as rhetorical nor embellished by as many periods, conveyed the feelings of the recipients admirably. After the speeches the beautiful gift was examined and admired by all. The concluding feature of the even- ing was the presentation of the prizes, which were beautiful and elaborate, not excepting the "booby prize," which was not lacking in intrinsic merit. The happiness of the even- ing was enhanced by the discussion of the very elaborate menu which was served amid great socislity. The members of the club are: MT. and Mrs. Isaac Abramson, Mir. and Mrs. T. T. Wells, Mr.and Mrs. s. Harrison Wag- ner, MT. and Mrs. R. W. Meigs, Miss Lucy Hotchkiss, MT. Frederick Lewis, MT. and Mrs. B. N. GriMng.

 Other Events.
 The fun at the polo rink last night began at 8:30 o'clock before 8 good-sized audi ence, and for two hours Hammonassett tribe of Red Men No. l. of this city, and Monto- wese tribe No. 6, of Meriden, furnished the entertainment.
 The New Haven Red Men won the tug-of- war easily.
 An apple race between six boys came next on the programme, which was won by O. D. Spencer
 Then followed three mile race. John nie Dodds skated fresh man every mile. Those who skated against him were: An- thony and Seery of this city and John Hol- den of New York. Dodds won by two laps. He was presented with handsome silver medal.
 The greatest event, however, was the polo game between those 'little Injuns." But how they did roll around the floor. From 8 scientific view it can never be beaten. There was "Chawlie'' Barnes, looking handsome and dignifed in pair of calico pantalettes, made for this special occasion. He rushed away from the oakland was ably assisted by Theodore Hemlock Macdonald. Kelsey Jones didn't have great deal to do but to look out of the windows and rub flies off himself His suit looked as if it came out of Noah's Ark. Steve champion had on pretty white cap and made several pyro- technic falls.
 The one who created the most fun was W. H. Baker, of the Meriden Journal. In fact, he is real comedian. Savory of the Meri- den Republican was dressed decolette, and he looked very pretty.
 The New Haven won 4 to l.

 Elected for she Coming Year-Naval
 Reserves for Connecticut.
 At the annual meeting of the New Haven Yacht club held at their rooms in the Lyon building last night officers elected for the coming year were: Commodore, c. Cooper Clark; vice commodore, A. H. Sey- mour; secretary. W. s. Cooke; treas urer, Robert Cooke. F. Wayland Fellowes was admitted as member of the club. Dur- ing the year five new yachts had been added to the fleet and the membership had been very slightly increased.
 A committee was appointed to present to the legislature bill for creating force of naval reserves in this State. This had been done in several other States and the hardy yachtsmen think it would be nice to have one in Connecticut.
 After the club meeting meeting of yacht owners was held. The principal business was whether Dr. Zink's boat, which won the fall regatta, should be given the prize or not. A lively discussion which lasted till late hour ended in nothing and the meeting final 1y adjourned with the matter undecided. Dr. Kinks was not present, and when the ques- ton is taken up at the next meeting it is ex- peeted that he will present his defense.

Various Claims Considered and Some
 Disposed or
 At the meeting of the committee on claims held last night the petition of John B. Ward, who asks for $100 damages, was first taken up. The damage claimed was from the washing away of part of the foundations of MT. Wards building at Oak and Factory streets by the overfowing of a sewer during heavy rain about year ago. Fire Marshal Kennedy and Paul Russo were the witnesses. The board in executive session granted Ward leave to withdraw his claim.
 Elizabeth Brennan asked for an abatement of taxes. She had bought building and lot of Wassena Clark. The house shortly after wards burned down and she asked an abate- ment of $50 in taxes assessed The claim was granted.
 Mrs. M. J. Johnson asked for an abatement of $13.60 taxes because of poverty. In exe- cutivs session she was given leave to with- draw her claim.
 The other claims before the committee were continued.
