A NEW CLUB.

The Young Republicans Will Have a
 Fine Club House-The Committee
 Have Decided 50 Raise the Annual
 Fees.
 The Young Mems Republican club have another scheme on foot for bettering the so- cial part of the club. At a meeting held last week it was decided to raise the annual dues from s to $5 and to charge $5 as an initia- tion fee This was done so that the club might secure better accommodations. The committee appointed for the purpose have been looking up all the available buildings, and what they want is a good large house centrally located. If they can secure suit able one they will lay out about $2.O00 in furnishing it. They will have pool and bil- Hard tables, smoking rooms, toilet rooms and
 card rooms on the upper floors. They want
 house with good large drawing rooms for
 receptions, etc, and also geod basement
 for club cafe. The club has 8 membership
 of between 700 and 800 and it is estimated that fully 600 will enter into this plan and 8 number who are not now members have agreed to join. There will probably be $50 members in the new club, and, charging $5 each, it makes $3,2 ,250 and taking $2,000 for furnishing the house it leaves $1 ,25O for the rent and incidentals. It seems as though this plan would be good one and with the proper management the young men would have club to be proud of. It 1s well to state that club will have no intoxicating li- quers on the premises.

 The game at the rink last night was withal, 8 pretty one, but it was devoid of any excite ment and interest except the way the New Ravens played all around the Springfelds Canayan is greatly needed by the visitors. His wife is at the point of death, and for over week he has not left her bedside.
 The score was 6 to in favor the home team. Riley did the best work for Spring. field. He was pretty well bombarded by the home rushers. Stamford played his first game in this city and he did well, although he did not have much to do. He was cool
 and collected, and showed, if played right along, that he will make good blocker.
 Both Connors and Hill did splendid individ-
 ual work, but very little passing. Connors
 at one time had the whole Springfield team
 chasing after him, but they couldn't get the
 ball. Phelan was remarkably strong at half-
 back, and his stops and blocks accounts for
 Reed not having more work. Reed did some
 of the best playing he has done this season.

 One of the most scientific plays of the game
 was by Hill, who, while standing in the center of the rink turned com pletely around and made a back-hsnded
 drive on Connor's pase, the ball going into
 the cage, but coming out again. Phelan dis tinguised himself in the second inning. He
 made nice run, passed to Conno1s. who fell as he drove. The ball struck the side of the rink and bounded back. All the players were looking for the ball but Phelan, who had made an accurate drive from the side before the Springfield players realized where the ball was. The seventh goal was short and sweet. Connors, in taking the rush. passed back to Hill, who sent 1t to Connors. Tho latter went around Spring6eld's cage with it and caged it from the side in four- teen seconds. The goal made by Hill was g peculiar one. It struck Rogers skate and bounded from the side of the rink into the cage. New Haven lost two goals by the ball
 not staying in the cage. If Roberts had been rushing and Csnavan in his place, the game would have been hustler: The score:

AN oRJECTION RAIsED

To the Electric System Applied For
 the Winchester Avenue Railroad
 Company.
 A communication in opposition 10 the use of overhead electric wires by the company which proposes to build and operate a rail- road to run from Union depot, out Winches- ter avenue, or Prospect street to the foot of Mill Rock, was gent to the General Assem- bly, yesterday by Professor Daniel O.. Eaton of Yale Scientific school, residing on sachem street, adjoining Prospect. Objection is made on the ground that the use of overhead electric wires will endanger both life and property. In his communication the pro- lessor specifically relates the reasons of his objections at length. Professor Eaton will probably appear before the legislature as an opponent to the petition for the incorpora- tion of the railroad company, as far as oper' ating it's road by the overhead electric sys- tenn is concerned.
