June 17.-The childrsn's day exercises, Sunday evening, at the Whitneyville Con- gregational church, attracted vast audience. An excellent programme was well rendered by the little folks and young people. The Rev. Mir. Dinsmore, who succeeded the vet eran minister, the late Rev. MT. Putnam, has already won 8 large place in the esteem of his people.

 Several candidates are fin the field for the postofice at Highwood. Whoever obtains the prize, it is the opinion of large majority of prominent citizens that the name of the office should be changed to "Hamden Plains'' and be located on Dixwel avenue, where the mails can be brought by stage each way twice daily. "Highwood" is fancy title that was never heard of six months ago. Hamden Plains is alike historic and the locality def- mite to the mind of everyone.

C0NSOLEDATED ROAD BOOMING. The Old Story Revived About the New
 England.

Last week stock of the Consolidated road sold at 260, 265 and, last sale, 264. These are the highest figures 1t has ever marked, having sold previously at 255. There is an impression that stockholders will not only get some new stock at par but also some treasury assets free. At the same time tha. this stock rose, the New York & New Eng land ran up to 521% on the notion that con- solidation is planned. It is safe to hold that the Consolidated stock could not rise if that company wss to take the sNew Englant d any price that made its stock worth 50. The insiders would be getting out of Conson dated and into New England if any such plan were near and the Consolidated stock would fall, not rise.
 The extent of the speculation in New York & New England stock la shown in the fact that in two days last week there were sold 1S5, 900 shares of stock ($19, ,500, ,000), while the whole amount outstanding is only $19,- 750, 900.
 The Boston Journal reports that there is life in the scheme for building from Danbury to Golden's Bridge on the Harlem road, and thus letting the New England road into the Grand Central depot.

Wires Down-TraIns Tied

 Up.
 FoRT SCoTT, Kan., June MA report was received here last evening to the effect that Uniontown, on the Wichita and Western railroad, had been swept away by storm Saturday night and that two women and four children had been drowned. The re- port of loss of life was not confirmed.
 Uniontown, which is place of 600 inhab- itants, is located in 6 thickly settled country and 1t is feared that the loss of life is even heavier than reported.
 As the wires are down fifteen miles on either side nothing definite can be learned. The storm struck the western part of Bour bon county late at night, coming from the west, where it had played great havoc.
 At Augusta 1t assumed the form of a cloud-burst, and though everything possible has been done to obtain details by the rail roads all is uncertainty at present.
 The part of Fort Scott known as Belltown is entirely under water and the people are being taken out with boats.
 The south bound Missouri, Kansas and Texas passenger train is tied up here, and the north bound St. Louis passenger train is tied up about two miles south of the city.
 The Kansas, Nebraska and Dakota is un- der water for about nine miles south.
 Serious damage to the main line of the Memphis route is confined to one place about 1000 feet in length and about ten miles north of Fort Scott.

A STRANGE OCCURRENCE. Carrying Q Girl Away Against HeI


 Woodmont people are considerably agita- ted over an incident that has occurred there In the last few days. About three months ago Andrew Gilbert, of Woodmont, saw girl walking along the railroad track. He questioned her. She said that her name was Sadie King, that she was fourteen years old, and finally said she had been living in lawyers family in Norwalk and that she was going to Boston. She stayed that night with MT. Gilbsrts family, and finally con- sented to stay. A few days ago two stran- gers drove up to MT. Gilbert's house and asked if girl named Sadie King was staying there. The girl, on seeing the strangers, ran to her room and would not face them. One of the men said the girl had run away from his house, and he threatened Mr. Gil- bert with arrest if he did not give her up. He said Deputy Sheriff Bradley of Milford was in the carriage. This frightened the Gilberts and they surrendered the girl. It has been found out that the man in the car- riage was not Deputy Sheriff Bradley. The girls screams could be heard as she was car ried away. An investigation is being made

ERw YORK. June IT,
 Stocks opened fractionally lower, though outside the grangers only Missouri Pacific showed marked decline. After the first hour however there was 8 check to the decline in the general list, and the market lapsed into dulness except for the few lead ing shares. The signing Of the bill giving the New England terminal facilities in New York started that stock and it moved up rapidly followed by St. Paul. though the improvement in the last named was small and soom came to an end. Later, how ever, Atchison joined in the upward movement, and toward the delivery hour there was a sudden spurt ooaiers which infused strength into the list. Jer sey Central and Delaware and Hudson were most conspicuous for strength, but Reading WAS not far behind, and trading in the last named stocks be- came heavy.
