A nmeoxLxN spoRrsuAN SHOT.

 Bernard Hotter is Dangerously Wounded while Duck Shooting on tne
 sound.
 GREENWICH, Conn, Nov. 21.-BsrnaEd Hetter, Dennis J. Tracy and Edward smsd- Icy, all of Brooklyn, left that place on Fn- day last in the yacht Sadie May for afew days duck shooting on the Sound.
 Yesterday afternoon they departed from Northport for home. They had just dropped anchor in Greenwich hsrbor when one or them saw flock of ducks near by. He sheuted to Bernard Hotter, who was in the cabin, to bring up the shotgun, and Tracy jumped into tho skiff.
 while Hotter was handing Tracy the gun the hammer struck the gunwale of the boat and 1t flew back discharging the contents of the barrel into tho chest of Bernard Hotter.
 It was at first thought that he was killed: His companions put him in tho rowboat, and he was taken to hotel in this place, whore he lies in critical condition.
 His relatives in Brooklyn have been noti- fed. He is 80 years of age and unmarried' and was foreman of the cooper shop of Dens- low & Bush in Brooklyn.

FOR BACK SALARY.
Suit ef an Ex.Passor Against she A. M.
 K. XloA Church.

Suit ef an Ex.Passor Against she.A M.
 K. ZioA Church.
 Rev. Peter E. Mills, formerly pastor of the Bethel A. N. E. Zion church, has brought suit against that church, claiming back sal- ary to the amount of $211, besides $500 damages. The complaint alleges that when Rev. MT. Mills became pastor of the church in 1888 he was to receive an annual salary of $400. When his year had expired all he had received was $1o9. The trustees refused to pay the balance to him, and he threatened to bring suit. But this didn't seem to arouse the trustees and now, besides the back sal ary, the sx-pastor claims $500 damages for the bother that he has been put to in trying to collect the money.
 A member of the church said last night that the society had good right not to pay hin the balance of the salary. He said that Mr. Mills was delinquent in his duties as pastor, and did not take the spiritual inter- est in his work that he should have taken. Several times he did not attend prayer meet ings. Further, the member said, this iuat- tsntion to pastoral duties had been the cause of running the church down.
 The case will come up at the present term of tho Court of Common Pleas.

stocks opened Steady, but . Down ward Movement, Though Nos Gon- eraI, EAsues ana she Market Closes Heavy and Weak at she Lowest Prices In Many Stocks.
 NEW YORK. Nov. 21.
 Stocks opened steady and there were material advances in Atchison, Texas and Fort Worth, Ten nessee Goal and Sugar. but the last two stocks went down again quickly as they rose, while the rest of the list generally held on to portion of their gains until noon. Pacific Mail showed considerable strength. The drive of the day was then made al the coal stocks, and Reading became specially active though with Lackawanna the impression made was only for small fraction. The raid soon ended, and covering sent prices up again and many stocks recovered at the highest of tho day. The pressure was renewed upon the trusts In the last hour, however, and selling of Denver, Texas and Fort Worth to realize profits took that stock down rapidly, all tho forenoon's improvement being wiped out with something added. Talk of recsiv- CT for Cotton Oil had it's effective upon the trusts and all of them made material concessions. The close was fairly active, but heavy and weak at the lowest prices in many stocks. Railroad bonds were quite active, but the tone of the dealings was irregular and rather heavy in the main. The sales amounted to $1,467,ooo.

 The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Consolidated road will be held at the depot in this city on December 1S. The thirteen directors of the road will be elected, and 1t is probable that other business of i'm. portancs will be transacted.

That Ayers Sarsapari1la ia the best cure for Indigestion, even when complicated with Liver Complaint, is proved by the following testimony from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Broadway Centre, Mich.:-
 "Liver complaint and indigestion ending my existence. For moro than four years I suffered untold agony, was reduced almost to skeleton, and hardly had strength to drag myself about. All kinds of food distressed mo, and only tho most delicate could De digested at physicians treated me without giving re- lief.
