A MODEL HEALTH BOARD.

An Important Meeting That cannot
 be Held for Lack of Quorum.
 For three days the board of heath have tried to meet without success. The only member of the board who has answered every meeting call was Health Office Frost and he has begun to show signs of weairness, The meeting was first called for Wednesday afternoon, but only the mayor and Dr Frost were pres ent at the appointed hour and the meet ing could not be held for lack of a quorum. Thursday forenoon a second at tempt to meet was made and again only two members materialiZed, Mayor Boughton and F. P. Weld being absent. Edward l.. Frisbie and Dr Frost were on hand ready for business. A third at tempt to get the members together was made at f o'clock yesterday afternoon and this time the combination was almost the same as on the former oc- casions, Dr Frost and F. F. Weld being the only members present. Garbage Collector Lawlor was also on hand ready to give an account of his work but nothing could be done except to hold an informal discussion. In the meantime complaints against the gar bage collector are being made to Health Officer Frost and Sanitary Inspector Moses, while on the other hand the col lector maintains that he does the work thoroughly and we'll. The common council should take hand in the mat ter and give the board shaking up.

Child.AIarrlare In India.

A sensational case has recently excited public attention at Bombay, In which Hoikar's son-in-law was charged with cruelty to his child-wife. The facts ad- duced in evidence show that the husband was forty-seven years old and the wife nine. The accused had already been married fourteen times. The father of the child sold her for fourteen rubles 8 month. She was seen on the parapet of house, greatly agitated. and threaten Ing to throw herself down into the street.
 When a policeman entered the house she stated that her husband had beaten her, and threatened to kill her if she failed to undo knot in his hair within five days. Eventually the accused was acquitted as the evidence was deemed in- sufficient to prove habituai cruelty. Tho facts of this case still further illustrate the iniquitous cruelty of the existing practice of child-marriage and show the imperious necessity, in the interests of common humanity, of an early reform of Hindu marriage customs Times.

SHOUT THE GLAD TIDINGs.

The Legislature Has Finished It's
 Work.-Closing Hours In Both Hous-
 es.-A Scene of Hllarity Interspersed
 With Exchanges ot Friendship.
 HARTFORD, June 22.-Both houses of the general assembly were called to or der at 1O:30 this morning. It was the closing day and the members felt in an extremely hilarious mood. In the house they did hardly any business, the time being occupied mostly in throwing beans, torpedoes and books at each other. This has become common source Of amusement during the past five days.
 Shortly after 12 o'clock both houses met in joint session in the hall of repre-. sentatives and the usual closing exer. cises took place.
 Previous to this the members of the house had preser ted Spe ,ktr Perry with a valuable pair of diamond cuff buttons and he had responded in a neat and ap. propriate speech, reviewing the labors o1 the session and complimenting the com. mittees on their good work. The clerks were also remembered. MT Hyde, of Hartford, made the presentation speech, and it was model of neatness. He was loudly applauded and Speaker Perry visibly grew agitated as he arose to re- SpOnu. w nen ne LOOK ms seat the roar was loud and almost deafening, lasting for fully sixty seconds.
 The customary committees were ap. pointed to wait upon the governor and inquire if there were any reason why the assembly should delay it's final adjourn ment and to find out if his excellency had any communication to make, and they reported that he had no further use for the members of 1889.
 When the senate entered the chamber the members were preceded by Lieu tenant Governor Murwin and President Coffin of the senate. After prayer by the chaplain a committee was appointed to wait on the governor and to inform him that the assembly was ready for final adjournment. Sheriff Spaulding appeared and announced the governor and state officers.
 Governor Bulkeley accompanied by his executive, secretary and-state officials, immediately entered and were received by the joint convention rising. The governor delivered an address and Sheriff Spaulding his proclamation. Secretary of State Walsh made solemn invocation and shortly after 3 o'clock the general assembly of 1889 had risen much to the qualification of the people of the com monwealth.

ssSDOtS on the Snns,

For two or three years past, and es- pecially for the last year, there have been very few indications of "sun spots on the solar disc. It is rare, even in the minimum period. that the suns face is so very clear of these unseemly blotches, and for so long time. Now. a pretty good. sized ''spot" is reported-but the reporter failed to find it with a smoked glass, unless one dubious black speck not very near suns equator was the ''spot." And yet that little speck, which bears proportion to the whole solar disc not greater than that of fly on barrel-head, it is said to be nearly as large as our earth. A few active solar magnetic disturbance of that sort now would be apt to bring on hot weather.

BASE BALL FOR THE GIRLS.

A Now Game That Promises to Be.
 come Popular With the Fair Sex.
 Bustle base ball, new game intended to give the girls chance at the popular sport, is the alliterative title of q new play which a Waterbury man is trying to have patented. The game is to be played between nine males and nine females, and it is expected that il will become very popular at picnics and school excursions. These are the rules
 1st. When the male nine is in the field the girl who whacks at the ball without shutting her eyes is entitled to first base whether she hits the leather or not.
 End. If she runs to first base without screaming or saying ''Oh my" she is en- titled to take second base; if she screams once the first baseman is entitled to kiss goodness" or goodness gracious" she must kiss three of the nine male players, the captain of the nine being allowed to select the lucky three.
 3d. After reaching first base girl is entitled to take another base every time a female batter hits the ball.
 4th. Girl batters shutting their eyes and striking at the ball shall be declared out. Three outs retire the side.
 9th. A girl shall be given out if after striking the ball she faints.
 9th. When the male nine is at the bat the girls will be allowed to catch the ball in lunch baskets, their hats or their aprons, and one fly catch of this sort retires the side.
 7th. After male player has hit the ball if he shall fail to make circuit of the bases before the ball is fielded to either the pitcher or catcher at the home plate he shall be declared out. Two such outs retire the side.
 Sth. A male player successfully mak- ing the circuit of the bases is allowed to kiss any one of the female players he may select. This, however, does'nt go if he has dye upon his mustache.
 9th. Any girl feeling that she is not getting her just share of the osculation shall be allowed to call time and demand her just portion. The male player who refuses her her rights is no gentleman. Batting, fielding and pitching rules and all other information can only be obs tained at Hirsh's Ten Per Cent Clothing House, 72 Bank street, opposite the postoffice.
 We are the sleepless, restless hustlers and toilers for trade, and we will have it if we must give the clothing away.

WORLD OF SPORTS.

Shoch, recently released by the Wash ingtons, has agreed to give his terms to Worcester before signing elsewhere This man is one the best general players ill the country.
 Brown was the first league player to make 90 hits. In 40 games he stole 37 bases and got 3S bases on balls.
 With the ad> ent of hot weather, the strike-outs increase every day, while the base Int column becomes correspont,- ingly smaller. There will be very few players with an average of 300 at the end of the season, with the batting no heavier than it is at present.
 There will be four days of good trot- ting at Charter Oak park, June 90. 26, 21 and 2S. A purse of S6,0O0 has been subscribed by S6 gentlemen, and the best horses on the turf are entered. On the first day there will be two races. two the second, three the third and two the last.
 Willie Murphy, Hartford's left fielder, IS enjoying vacation without pay, for insubordination.
 Abita, where the Sullivan-Kilrai fight will probably take'place. is thirty three miles from New Orleans, and is reached by the Queen and Crescent and East Louisiana railroads. The owners of the latter line will erect an amphitheatre ac the battle ground to seat 5000 presons in case the town is selected for the fight. It can be reached in an hour from New Orleans, and is a healthy pine tree coun- try where there is not much danger of an Interruption of the fight.
 Sullivan is gradually increasing his work. In his long walk yesterday he succeeded in reducing his weight two pounds. Muldoon does not allow him to receive or entertain any company, all his time being taken up in his work.
 Harris says in the New York Press that the fight is between Boston and New York, and that Boston will 20 to the wall,
 It is not decided yet whether Eastons place in the Atlantic league will be filled. Scranton wanted the place early in the season, but base ball enthusiasm there has died out and it is doubtful whether they will want to go in at this late day.

THE sOUDER MURDER TRIAL.
A Witness for the Defense Says Calvin
 Had Keen Drinklnu

Had Been Drinking.
 At the request of Lawyer Cole the black Derby hat worn by John Calvin on the night he was murdered was pro- duced by State Attorney Eggleston yes terday.l Dr Knight, the states witness, said the thickness of Galvin's skull was about one-quarter of an inch. The hair was thick. The roof of the left lateral ventrical is about one-inch below the inner table of the skull. A search was made in the brain fer the broken blade, but it was not found there or anywhere else. In the opinion of witness the assailant struck Calvin on the head with the knife and then withdrew the blade.
 A knife blade similar to the original blade in Souders knife fitted the notch in the piece of Galvin's skull, with the point just through the bone, was shown to the witness who said the blade cer- tainly went deeper into the skull, as shown by the crack in the bone. The knife and portion of the skull were exhibited to the jurors for their inspec- tion.
 Dr o. c. Smith was called as the first witness for the defence. For the past five years he has acted as physician for both the Consolidated and the New Eng land roads. The night of the murder he uGhIu HOOSS anu lOuu CTleS ADOuC ullu- night. He was on his way to attend d patient, going up Asylum street where he camc upon two sausage vendors talk ing loudly together. After attending his patient near by, he came down out of the room and found crowd of men gathered about one of the sausage ven ders. They said the other man was stabbed. Going down the street, wit ness came upon a crowd gathered about Calvin near the Park church. Asked Calvin if he wanted help and the reply was, "1 want the man who struck me" Calvin was insulting to witness and so witness left him, after placing his finger into the wound to see the extent of it. Thought it only a scalp wound. Thought Calvin had been drinking. When wit ness left him Calvin was standing. His clothes were bloody. Witness thought the skull was not fractured.

Salmon P. Chase.

The tribute paid to Mr. Chase by McCul-
loch in his Men and Measures OF Half a
Century is Of peculiar interest ''He was

servative and cautious, would have failed.

be proper for me TO remark here that the
personal relations between Mr. Lincoln and
Mr.. Chase were never cordial They were
about as unlike in appearance, in education,
in manners, in taste and in temperament as
two eminent men could be. Mr. Chase had
received a classical education, and until he

Frederick III.

Frederick II was far more than a mer,
soldier. On one side of his nature he was il
warm sympathy with the military patriotism
Of his people; on the other he was in clos
touch with the varied activities of their intel
lectual culture and industrial enterprises
Excluded as he was, by his position, from pub
lic Intervention in party politics, he never
sank into inactivity. His wide sympathie:
found many fields Of congenial energy. On
every side he carefully prepared himself to
fill the great position to which he would one
day be called The official director of the
state museums, the patron of arts and sciences
the promoter Of educational and philanthrop-
ical institutions, he labored heart and soul to
popularize the results of aesthetic and scien-
titic culture, and to advance the well being of
his people. Among the many educational
movements in which he was interested
may be specially mentioned the Fortbil-
dungschulen, which supply instruction to
persons of every class or age after
they have left school In later life his chief
recreatiOns were music and literature, His
favorite composers were Gluck and Mozart
Wagnerism as a social cult, he particularly
disliked; but he greatly admired Tam
hauser," "LOhengrin,r "Fliegende Hol.
lander" '!Meistersinger" and "Parsifal u
Tristan und Isolde" he could not bear; and
the "Irilogie," in spite Of fine and stirring
passages, was, as a whole, to him almost un-
endurable. With the history Of his own
country he made himself intimately familiar.
and the great national work upon the reign of
Frederick the Great was continued under his
especial patronage. To psrticularize his ia
vorite books would be difficult task But
those Of which he never wearied were
Faust, Nathan der Weisen and, as many
viii learn with special interest, because it de
notes the hidden source Of strength upon
which he relied throughout his last illness.
