ITALIAN nrAsaUERaDEns

pressed as woman One Parades the Streets Speaking te Young Ladies.
 Gianno Fario of Minor street, together with some of his associates, concocted scheme last night whereby he should parade the streets as a woman. He got all the necessary apparel, from hustle to a hairpin and veil to conceal his fierce moustache, and started out with one of his associates who acted the part of an escort. Gianno made very good looking female. On State street he spoke to several young ladies, and complaint was made to the police. AS soon as they found that Roundsman Mcbride and Officer Done- gan were on their track they started on run. They went in roundabout way to Minor street and were there caught in Gianno's house, but he only was arrested as his part ner could not be singled out from the group of Italians there assembled. Later he gave bonds for his appearance before the City court this morning. He was taken to the station house in the police wagon When the wagon started from Columbus avenue crowd of two hundred people was assembled to view the prisoner and witness his depart ure.

At the First methodist Church.

At this church yesterday morning the pas- tor, Rev. N. B. Chapman, D. D., took his text from the gospel of St. Luke, xxiv, 49: s'And behold, send the promise of my Father upon you; but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem until ye be imbued with power from on high" The main point brought out by the speaker was that Christians must be filled with power from on high, must have less of self-reliance and rely more completely on God if they wish to accomplish anything in his service, showing that when the power of the Holy Ghost falls on the heart, the meekest of his children become strong, and those from whom little is expected often achieve signal triumphs in the service of the master. As an illustration of this point the pastor spoke of the timidity of Peter when he cowed before the serving woman at the time of his denial of Christ, and then after the crucifxion and ascension of Christ how this same apostle became power for good and three thousand souls were converted un- der his preaching in one day. The sermon was very carefully prepared and eloquent discourse, and was listened to with deep at- tention by his hearers.

SPORTING MATTERS.

The New Haven's Have a Fair Chance 10 Beat Meriden out of Fourth Place win Hackeft or Spence Manage the New Haven Ease Ball Teams- How Bates Game to Leave Harvard Other Notes.
 The thirteenth week of polo ended last Saturday night. During the week the New Haven's made spurt and did the best work they have done during the whole season. They won three games out of the four, which record was also attained by the Springfelds. Hartford won two and lost two. Bridgeport won one and lost three, while Meriden took but one and lost three. Jake Morse is needed to strengthen the Mer- idens. The New Ravens now have an ex- cellent chance to catch up with the Meri- dens, for they are now only three games be- hind the Silver Cities in games won. They will play two games with the Meridens, one tonight, and the other, (the one that was not counted) Wednesday night. In order to get out of last place the New Ravens should win both. And they can do it, if they work hard enough.
 At Hartford the New Ravens were de- feated Saturday night by the score to 3,
 
 8ridgeports 2 to 3. Turnbull played his first game with Hartford in place of George Smith at center.
 The directors of the New Haven Amuse- ment association will this afternoon sign either Hackett or Spence manager of the New Ravens. Grounds have not yet been secured. Supt. Ward, of the West Haven horse car road, has an eye to the future if the game in this city is rightly handled and will try to get the directors of the road to erect fence and grandstand on the Hull lot on Howard avenue
 "Diok" Phillips writes as follows to the COURIER:

If he looks over the record of the Turf Field and Farm, and then speaks the the truth he will find that have lowered Walton's record which 16:3 made in the diamond belt seriers at the Brooklyn rink, Brooklyn, N. Y, in which race Dodds claims to have finished second, but was present to witness the final heat and l.. Sanders finished second in 16:2i. will not only cover Dodds Ss5, but will wager S103 more on the race, and the same that Dodds never defeated Wal ton. Now if Dodds means business let him come to terms.

KLEIN ARRIVES FROM SAMOA.

 He States That He Did Not Lead
 Natives Against the Germans and
 Was Merely a Passive Spectator.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 17.-John O. Klein, the American newspaper correspondent who arrived from Samoa on the steamer Mariposa yesterday, says that he left the island be- cause he was aware that he would have to remain on the American man-of-war contin- ually in order to avoid being seized by the Germans, who were evidently under instruc- tions to arrest him, although it was well understood on the islands that he took no part whatever in the attack upon the Ger mans. He says he left his sick-bed to go out to watch the attempt of the Germans to land for the attack on Mataafa's forces, but that instead of firing @ shot or leading the natives he was a passive spectator, beyond warning the Germans not to land, as he was requested to do by the natives. Klein has affidavits of Vice Consul Blacklock and oth- CT residents as to the proper character of his conduct on the night of the battle with the Germans on December IS. Klein declares the situation of all American residents and especially merchants, is intolerable owing to insolence of German officials and soldiery.

Visiting the Reform School.

The reform school boys were on their good
 behavior Friday when the legislature solons
 visited the school. The law breakers behaved 80 well that the law makers were quite charmed, and eomplimented for Supt. Howe for his magnetic power over the unruly youth. After the dinner which was an extra fine one, the law makers felt like pardoning out all but the incorrigible. Out of respect for ex-Gov. Lounsbury's treatise on the in cerrigible element in cur refor- matories they made this mental proviso. There were 275 law makers at the dinner. After the banquet the party went to the chapel, where the boys of the school sang and where speeches were made by Superintendent Howe, Chairman Houston, Representative Castlelow, o. B. Arnold and others.

 NEW YORK, Feb. 17.-An Atlanta, Ga. |,
 special to the Herald says: North Carolina is on the verge of terrible race war, growing out of the negro exodus. All railroad emil grant agents have been driven out of the State The local military companies have been called out in Wayne county to aid the farmers in preventing assertion of their la borers. The whites have asked the legisla- tHre for a law covering the case, and the blacks have retaliated by calling public meetings at which resolutions are adopted declaring that their treatment by the whites makes life in the State unbesrable. The resolutions at 8 monster meeting in Greens boro contained this clause: "God is at the head of this move, and not the Richmond and Danville railroad. The voice of John | Brown is sounding in the ears of the sons of Ham, and the great Southwest says, come, | we have lands,' and the oppressed conscience | of the negro says 'go,' and we are going" Both whites and blacks are heavily armed. | Governor Scales has issued secret orders to the militia to be ready to quell possible out ! breaks.
