FOLIO MATTERS.

GussAan Backing tho New Britain
Team and Nos Clark - Lampkin's
Case Brought Up at tho League M eet-
Ing.
The admission of sixth club, New Brit
ain, to the Polo League, will neoessitate each
clubs playing nearly every night In the sea-
son. 1t has been stated in some of the papers
that Manager Clark would put his Boston
team In New Britain, but this IL not 80.
CLARK will have nothing whatever to do with
any team in tais league. Lawyer Gussman
of New Britain, is back of the team, and
has associated with him several mon of
means. Nobody knows who the players are
who will be signed, by Manager Gussman.
Cornell, the old Boston rush will probably
be one of them. There are plenty of players
In Massachusetts.
Lampkin's case was brought mp at the
league meeting Tuesday, but nothing was
done a. 1t had been proven beyond q
doubt that he had sold games. With Dun
ming 1t was different. Things looked rather
against him, but there was considerable
doubt as to the truth of the charges, and as
Dunning stoutly manifested his innocence,
his case was reconsidered and he was condi-
tionally reinstated.
Meriden will have to do considerably bet
ter next year IT its team lasts the season out.
Last season the management lost money, and
just pulled through; but that was after Man
ager Lucas made bad move in being hasty
about having Dunning blacklisted, which
took all the interest out Of the game in that
city. In fact many Meridenites signed pc
tition asking that he DO re.instated, with the
threat that If he was not they would attend
no more games.

COMPLAINT MADE.

WorkinGmen Cannot DO Business
with the Assessors Unless They
Fake Half n Nay or a Reform
Needed.
Just now there is considerable complaint
against the board of assessors. When the
City Hall clock strikes twelve O'Clock all the
assessors depart for home and leave no one
In charge. This is q great Inconvenience to
workingmen. They have no other time to
swear to their tax list, unless thsy get off
such that their wives cannot 20 in their
stead. 1t seems to be the general opinion
that the assessors should arrange It so that
one of them would be in the Office at noon
time.

Bright. Beautiful Easter.

A more perfect Easter day than Sun- day could scarcely have been found, even had any been captious enough to wish for other weather. Special services fit- ting to the occasion were held in all churches and each house of worship was crowded at every service.
 The Congregational church was tastily decorated with potted plants and flow CTS and Rev Mir Herrick of Sherman preached an excellent Easter sermon.
 Plants and flowers, generously fur nished by Mrs Reilly, Mrs M. J. Houli- han, Mrs Coles, Mrs Halpin and Mrs Edward Murray and artistically arrang- ed by Miss Annie McCartan, assisted by Mrs Reilly and Miss Gaffhey, almost hid the altar at St. Rose and rendered it doubly beautiful. The music was unus- ually fine. Farmers Kyrie, Gloria and Agncs Dci, Millard's Credo and Sanctus Regina Coeli by the Sisters of Notre Dame, were we'll rendered by the choir Haec Dies, by Kapp, was acceptably sung by Miss Gaffney at the offertory Father Donohue gave short address and the Easter collection was taken up. It was for the benefit of the ecclesiastical students of the diocese and was one of the largest ever received, amounting to $40.
 Floral decorations at St. Johns church were superior to those for several years, notably the potted plants and ferns which were placed at the windows and banked about the altar. A large congregation was present. The music, both morning and evening, was sweet and well render ed. At the children's Sunday school services, immediately after the morning service, ssThe Roman Soldier was sung as solo by Master Paul Chapman, with chorus by the school.

Patrick Kilbride.

Another victim of cancer, that loath- some and abhorrent disease, has passed away. Mir Patrick Kilbride, who died Wednesday noon, aged 66, was one of Sandy Hooks old residents. He had spent many years in the service of the New York Betting and Packing Co.,, on ly retiring when compelled by i'll health. Some six or eight months ago, he was attacked by simple sore throat, which soon developed into cancer of a malig- nant type. Eminent physicians and sur geons could give no hope. For nearly three months, he was confined to the house and was unable to leave the bed for several weeks before his death. The cancer, which ate its way downward, broke out on each side of the throat and presented a most horrible appearance. Mir Kilbride was unable to eat, but took a liquid nourishment and did not seem to be in great pain.
 He was one of the best known and best liked of the older Irish people and was always quiet and unassuming. He leaves wife and eight sons, Messrs Thomas of Holyoke, Mass, John of Jer- sey City, James, Edward, Michael, Frank, Joseph, all of Newtown, and William also two daughters, Misses Maggie and Mary A. Kilbride. He has three broth CTS here, Messrs John, Edward and Bar ney Kilbride.
 Rev P. Donohue will ofiiciate at the funeral at the house, to-day, (Friday) at 2 D ID.

In the after noon, about 150 children took part in the Sunday school exercises, which included 3 short address by the rector, Rev c. l.. Pardee. The music was under the di- rection of Miss Frances B. Russell.
 At the Congregational church, the Easter services were listened to by large congregations. The church, the services and the music bespoke the joyous Easier tide. Sunday school exercises were also well rendered. At the evening service, Joseph H. Stagg gave cornet solo.
 Local societies of the ". c. T. U. of Fairfield county held an annual conven- tion at the Congregational church, last week Thursday. Mrs Asa s. Curtis read an original poem of welcome. After en- eouraging reports from nine unions, a handsome entertainment and an after noon devoted to reports and elections, about 60 children of the Stratford Loyal Legion gave pleasing exercises, march ing, recitations, singing, etc. In the evening, five young ladies and a gentle man contested for a Demorest silver med al.

Praiseworthy Lenten Work.

Both Trinity and St. Johns parishes have done much creditable work during Lent, of which they may well be proud.
 Trinity's Easter offering was $105 37, of which $30 01 came from the children. During Lent, S2lG 73 in cash was sent away from the parish for different mis- sionary works; $S5 was the balance due from the 45 names enrolled in the mis- sionary enrolment fund, of which $40 was paid last year; $56 P was devoted to domesric missions, $24 21 to foreign missions, S13 45 for the church building anity among the Jews, $20 for diocesan missions, S27 30 for work of the woman's auxiliary. Besides all this in cash, box valued at $64 20 has been sent away to cheer the hearts of the poor.
 At St. Johns church, the Easter offer ing amounted to SIP 2S, S2G 42 coming from the Sunday school. Of this, $25 was sent to Bishop Thomas of Kansas, to furnish a dormitory alcove at the boys boarding school at Salina, Kansas, as memorial of Howard c. Warner. Several volumes, valued at $l0, have also been sent to Bishop Thomas as the nu- cleus of reference library for his school The Bible class also sent volume, ''Brush's Manual of Determinative Min. eralogy." The children have met at tho reetory every week during Lent to pre-, pare a box for St. Mary's home, Balti. more. A barrel of clothing is also being prepared by the ladies for the mountain eers of Carolina.

Popular Mrs Ronalds.

Among all the American ladies of Lon don society, mo one occupies more prom inent and unique position than Mrs Ron- aids, It is twenty years now since she first came to London, determined to make it her home. Several years previous,sh had visited the great metropolis as a bride-and a rarely beautiful one. She received much attention then, at time when Americans were not the favor ed darlings of English aristocracy, as they are to-day. She made many warm friends, who never forgot her, and who, when she returned under altered circum- stances, welcomed her cordially, and by their stanch, unwavering friendship, es- tablishe3 her in a safe position. A beau tiful woman she was then, beautiful woman she is now, although the mother of grown-up sons and daughters. It may be truly said of her that she goes every where, and her presence is besought on every conceivable occasion. "Look at these,n she said the other day, pointing to huge pile of notes and letters. "Half of them are petitions for concerts, hospi- tals, charities of all kinds, in which l am entreated to take an immediate and per sonal interestr' The remainder were in vitations to half the best houses in Lon- don. Mrs Ronalds owes her popularity to her own suitability and to her incom- parable tact.
 She entertains but little. never attempt ing anything more formidable than an afternoon at home. But her house in Cadogan place and her Sunday reunions are among the pleasantest in London, where one is certain to meet some of the best people, the smartest people, the cleverest people; where the music is well chosen and excellently performed, and where conversation is carried on with sprightly animation in several Ian guages. Herself an accomplished lin guist, and singer whose sweet voice time has scarcely touched. Mrs Ronalds gathers about her much that is bright and agreeable, and is never seen to such good advantage as when hostess in hel own home, role she plays to perfection At Marlborough House she is the friend of the Princess, has received many testi. monials of that royal lady's regard, and is often included among the house guests at Sandrigham. When M. and Mime
 Washington entertained the Prince and Princess of Wales the other evening, ant the invitations were limited to forty guests, Mrs Ronalds was one of those
 favored by being asked. And this wa
 no small social triumph, considering
 that there was time when the Frencl
 Minister and his wife were not such ar dent partisans. The late Earl Dudley
 was always staunch friend, however
 he had known Mrs Ronalds in Paris, ant admired her there, so when she came t London she found in him and his beauti ful wife tower of strength and defense : --[ World.
