 BRIDGEPORT WOMAN ON BAT.
 A drunken woman in New York with her little daughter 10 years old, whom she held by the hand, staggered Monday morning and fell on the sidewalk, hurting her head. She was arrested and in court said she was Agnes Maroney, 45 years old, of Bridgeport. The child was committed to the care of the Chil- dren's society.
 JUST HEARD FROM.
 Fred H. Woolworth, who left Waterbury twenty-one years ago, has just been heard from for the first time in this long period from his home in Australia. He was 23 years old when he disappeared, and had an honorable record in the army. In the Au- stralian home he has been successful, both in mining and agriculture.
 THE sLUGaKR. The papers in Bridgeport yesterday stated that John L. Sullivan, the great slugger, had started on tearing spree in that city Sun day. The report was not strictly true. Sul- livan arrived there Sunday morning for the purpose of visiting his friend Dick Moran, of the ''Drum." During the day he got to drinking to certain extent, but was re- ported all right this morning. TWENTY YEARS OF SERVICE. Yesterday in Middletown was the twen- tieth anniversary of the installation of Dr. A. W. Hszen of the North Congregational church. This twenty years psstorate makes Dr. Hagen the oldest in rank of the Congre- gational pastors in the country, and twelfth oldest of those in the State. Dr. Perrin, who WIS killed in the Park Central Hotel disaster, was moderator of the council which in stalled Dr. Hazen. Dr. Thompson, who died last week in Hartford, delivered the charge. THE COLOR QUESTION. The color line question arose in one of the school districts at Franklin this winter and ended in the discharge of Q teacher and the vindication of little colored child who was distasteful to her. When the child first ap- peared she was sent home with the informa. tion that she belonged in another district. When this scheme failed the teacher boldly drew the color line issue. The agent of the State board of education finally came to the rescue and discharged the teacher. REACHING THE PEOPLE. A new manner of reaching the people has
 been adopted by Rev. W. E. Johnson of Plain vile, an Episcopal rector. After his Sunday services he dons his surplice and goes to the country store, where he has 8 choice and
 unique audience. They gather about the stove, smoking their cigars and pipes, while the preacher speaks in 8 free and easy way on various religious subjects. He urges them not to stop smoking or in any way to incon- venienoe themselves, and the innovation has proved very satisfactory so far.

The coal stocks, grangers and Union Pa ciic showed the most weakness in the early deal ings. but in none of these were the first decline supplemented for more than fraction. Michigan Central, however, dropped over point. The losses in the rest of the list confined to small frac- tions and by the end of the first half hour the de- cline was checked and prices rapidly recovered, a majority of the stocks showing gain over first prices by the end of the hour. The rise, however, continued without check until nearly noon, with Lackawanna and Chicago Gas Trusts most con spicuous in the rise. Comparative dullness then overspread the list, but prices slowly advanced without any special feature until the close, which was active and strong at the best prices.

POSTAL INSURANCE.
A Scheme to Afford Greater Security In
 the Mails.

Scheme to Afford Greater Security In the Mails.
 From the Philadelphia Record.1
 A scheme of postal insurance has been perfected whereby the safe delivery of regist . cred letters and of parcels, whether the latter be registered or not, is guaranteed on an open policy insurance plan. It is to be entirely separate from the management of the pos- tai service. The scheme is controlled by a well known fire insurance company of New York, with capital of $3,00O,000. It is under the supervision of William A. West, who resigned on Jan. 1 as Chief Post Office Inspector preparatory to taking up his new duties.
 The plan covers two felds, ,one for negotia- ble and the other non-negotiable articles. Under the negotiables are classed paper money, bonds ond commercial paper ir- dorsed in blank, on all of which when regis- tered an insurance will be given for their safe delivery to any point either in this or foreign countries. Rates of premium on this negotiable paper will vary according to the distance it is sent.
 The company will deposit policies in the banks of all the principal cities of the coun- tries, which will empower the company to Ao6AStoAOSA points and will hold it responsible for safe delivery to the addresses. Should they be lost, stolen or destroyed while on the road after they have been properly registered at the Post Office, the postal company offers to pay the full value thereof.
 It is required, however, by the company as precaution against fraud, that the regis tering and mailing shall be witnessed by two employees of the bank which sends the matter, and that the name of the person who has mailed it, together with the names of the two witnesses, be affixed to proper slips in the policy books. Statements of the money sent are also required to be forward- ed to the postal insurance company as evi- dence that the matter was mailed in sccor- dance with all the requirements.
 h the other class of posta. insurance the new company guarantee the safe delivery of articles of merchandise, whether registered or not. The cost of insurance of unreeis- tered parcels valued at $5 or less is 5 cents: $5 to $10, 10 cents. For registered parcels valued at from $10 to $25 it IS cents, and from $25 to $100 the rate is only 10 cents.
 The whole system of insuring registered and unregistered articles of merchandise. it is claimed by the company, will be bene- fcial not only to the large business houses who have occasion to ship many small par cells to distant localities, but also to the DOS tal service. The only interests injurious.y affected will be the express companies, whose business will be curtailed.

Tho Directory fop Nurses,

Now well advanced in the third year of its existence, has received the confidence and patronage of the public far beyond we had any reason to expect for 8 new enterprise
 Hundreds of Nurses have been sent to as many sick rooms, and the fact that, with rare exceptions, entire satisfaction has been given all parties, is sufficient proof that the selections have been judicious. Generally the calls for Nurses have been answered promptly, but in sickly seasons the demand has been greater than the Directory could supply. Upwards of 8 hundred names are on our register, representing the majority of the best nurses in this city and vicinity, both graduates of the Training School and others.
 When the calls are for Trained Nurses, only those are sent who are graduates of recognized schools and have had experience in the private sick room since leaving the Hospital.
 But, bearing in mind the fact that many cannot afford the expense and not every in- valid requires the special skill of the Trained Nurse, we have on our books the names of many desirable nurses who have devoted their lives to the care of the sick, and who are in every respect competent to perform the duties they undertake and for a compen- sation below what the services of the Grad- uated Nurses will generally command. It is the object of the Directory to supply promptly competent nurses, both male and female, for any case which may present, and one within the means of the applicant. The fee for furnishing Nurse is small and much valuable time and expense will be saved by consulting the Directory when 8 nurse ia needed, either in emergency or for future service.
 Any information in regard to nurses will l be furnished and all calls by telegraph mail I or telephone will receive prompt attention by
