which Preparations Have Been Well
Begun In New Haven's Elite society
Circles-Is IL Proposed to Give IL In
the Hyperion In December unoer
the Auspices OF tho United workers.
A very brilliant and notable event in New
Ravens elite society circles is booked to
occur In December at the Hyperion. The
preliminary steps have already been taken
and already much interest has been awakened
In society circles. The event will be given
under the auspices of the United Workers,
and the net proceeds will 60 to the society
to promote its benevolent work. The general
plan for the event is already taking shape
and color. 1t Is proposed to give an exact
reproduction on the Hyperion's large stage
of the old fashioned and stately minuet of
colonial days. The participants will repre-
sent New Ravens elite society circles. This
feature of the occasion will be gotten up In
the most elaborate manner and will be very
beautiful and brilliant spectacle in itself. In
addition to this the dances of many nations
will be represented, all in appropriate cos
tune. All these dances will be represented
by ladies' and gentlemen identified with the
interests Of the United Workers and will be
presented in the most complete and
attractive manner, no expense being
spared as to costumes and set
tings. No pains will be spared to
make Ii q truly brilliant affair, equaling or
SURPRISING in splendor and beauty any previ-
GUS efforts of the kind in New Haven. The
Officers who will have general charge of the
among whom are: President, Mrs. Professor
Blake; vice presidents, Mrs. Thomas g. Ben
nett, Miss Mary Scranton, Miss Walker. 1t
was intended to hold the affair In November,
but owing to the society's inability to secure
the services of Prof. Warwick, of New York,
at as early date as expected the time of
holding 1t has been postponed until Decem-
Der. Prof. Warwick is to drill the ladies and
gentlemen who are to take part in the respec-
fair have been appointed and have held seve-
raj meetings, but owing to the absence of
some of the members on their summer vaca-
tions the work of organization has not been
fully accomplished and the plans for
the affair are not yet fully
developed; but as stated, the general outline
proclaims that the occasion will equal If not
surpass In interest the great kirmess held at
the armory few years ago, and the noted
terested New Ravens cultured society circles
some years previous to the kirmess. 1t was
learned last evening that mass meeting OF
all the committees connected with the affair
Is to be held on Friday morning ct the resi-
denoe of Mrs. L. Black Newcomb on York
Square Place, when the general plan for the
affair will be outlined more fully, and many
details arranged for. The affair will then be
generally taken up and plan of action de-
cided upon. The plan of the entertainment
meets with much approval, and the object in
view, the benefit of the United Workers
treasury. will commend itself most heartily
to the public.

AssKssORs WANT moREPAY.

The board of selectmen IL on the
Peint of Increasing Their Salaries 20
Two Thousand Dollars when tho
Clerk Informs the Selectmen They
Have No Power 60 DO such an Act.
The assessors want more pay next year.
They sent in petition to the board of select
men last night asking that their salaries be
increased to $4,000. They said that the du-
ties of their Office are becoming more onerous
and that it takes much more time to attend
to the work that 10 acoruing in the Office than
formerly. They also assert that they are now
obliged to do more work than any assessors
in the State on account of the changes in re-
gard to the taxation of weasel property, col
disrs' exemption and the care of the map
System.
The petition was tabled, but was taken up
later on. Selectman Sternberg moved that
the salaries of the assessors be raised from
81, 500 to 81, 900, as asked for. The question
then arose as to whether the board of select
men had any right to take such action, it
being thought that that power rested only
with the legislature. Clerk Charles W. Pickett
was the one who drew the attention of the
board to this fact. He looked up the State
duU IOuuu bAnp, dCcoIuIuS
section "a, neither "the General Assembly,
town, borough or school district" could raise
the salaries of any public officers.
Mr.. Sternberg-I withdraw my motion.
On motion of Selectman White the petition
will be returned to the assessors, and their
attention called to section "a of the constitu-
ton.
1t was recommended that the new aims
house be not formally dedicated until about
November 1, after it has been occupied about
two weeks. Such was the eenee of the
meeting.
The board instructed the town agent to
have the west eide of Springside avenue
curbed.

cations placed on file. They were Michael
J. Cusick, Edward Wagner, George L. Row
Icy and John Crowl.
A. L. w. Kittredge, assistant electrician
of the department, requested that an increase
in his salary be made the coming year. The
matter was referred to the committee on
estimates, to be raised.
The following was passed:
Resolved. That a committee Of three be ap,
pointed investigate in connection with the police
surgeon and report as to what claims, IL any, the

ers Benton, Andrew and Gallagher an shis
committee. The rules of the department say
that the widow or family of any policeman
who shall have been Killed in the perform
anoe OF his duties, or who shall have died
from the effects of injuries received while in

ascertain is whether Officer Helget died from
the effects of injuries which were received
while on duty In the police department.
John a. Evans, of Howe street, asked the
board for its sanction for him to publish q
book containing "reminiscences of the police
department, and to print the. photographs of
the police commissioners, the chief, clerk
and others. He would distribute the book
to all members of the police department free

the oT e.
The committee on new precincts, composed of
Commissioners Hart and Andrew, made their
report. They recommended that two report
ing stations be established, one in the south
westerly portion and the other in the north
erly part of the city, at an outlay for land
and buildings Of not exceeding $4,000. It
was also recommended by the committee that
as soon as said buildings are ready for occu-
pancy the offices of lieutenant and rounds
man be abolished; that the number of CAP
tains be increased to four and the number Of
sergeants to sixteen, including three detec-
tives, and that twelve additional men be ap-
pointed for regular patrol duty. In the opin.
ion Of the committee thsae changes would

BOARD OF AEALTH.

Can DR.. DOoltttle Get HIS Pay From
she City for Attending a Case OF Con.
tagiOus Disease.
The board of health had considerable dis.
question last night as to whether the bill rem
dsred by DR.. Doolittle could be paid by the
city. He was called upon by Health Officer
Wright to attend Edward Olson, of Grand
avenue, who had scarlet fever. DIR. Doolit-
ties bill amounted to about 500, but the
board last night did not audit it. The city
charter says that no commissioner of the
fire or police departments or branch of pub
lie works can do work for the city and re-
ceive pay for 1t. Certain members of the
board of health thought that this rule was
intended to apply to the health department,
although it was not mentioned in the char
ter. The matter was referred to the Corpor-
alton Counsel for an opinion.
The inspectors reported that out of 561
nuisances ordered abolished all had been
carried out but eleven.
Health Officer Wright reported that dur
ing the month of September there had been
eight cases of typhoid fever as against forty
seven cases of the corresponding month last
year.

nKGELmAN BEATS GUERRERO.

A sharp Twcnty-Mile Running sRace
at tho Polo Rink - Guerrero Leads
for the First Fifteen Miles but Hegel-
man wins by Half a Lap.
Hegelman and Guerrero, the winners of
Arst and second money in the seventy
two hour walking match at the Polo rink
last week, ran spirited twenty-mile race
last evening. Guerrero's friends had in
sisted that he had been in good condition at
the beginning of 1t and the race last night
was ostensibly to show which was the better
runner of the two. They were to run twenty
miles. Hegelman took the lead at the start,
slowly followed by Guerrero, keeping it up
for nearly an hour, when Guerrero made a
squirt and passed Hegelman. He kept the
lead of lap until the seventeenth mile when
he slipped and fell several times. This gave
Hegelman chance to take the lead, and at
the finish he was half lap behind. The
time was two hours and ten minutes, not as
good as was expected. Guerrero seemed to
be troubled with q lame hip. His admirers
are still confident that he could have won
had he been in condition.

STATE CORRESPONDENTS
SOuth1n GtOn.


Oct. 1.-The democratic CAUCUS for nomi-
nation of town officers did not call out the
usual attendance or awaken much interest.
Solomon Finch and Thomas Scanlon were
nominated for selectmen. The fun began
when q candidate was sought for the Office
of town clerk, and more earnestness was
evinced in nominees declining to permit
their names to be used than at any other
time during the evening. The trouble is
owing to the fact that the present republic
can incumbent, Mr.. G. D. Barnes, has rem
dered such satisfactory service to all voters
for long term of years that there was no
chance whatever for the election of an op-
ponsnt, and few can be found who desire the
empty honor of serving as q target.
The Southington ball team has practically
closed a very successful season. They have
been remarkably well supported by the
public.
Mr.. J. 8. Oauldwell will soon 60 to X ear
ney, Neb., and his residence will be used as q
