Death of the Pastor Of the Methodist
 Church ar PlaInvIlle.
 The Rev. Joseph Vinton, pastor of the Methodist church at Plainville, died Sunday. The announcement of his death will be a shock to his many friends in the State. He graduated at Wesleyan in 1854, and joined the New York East conference in 1885. His first appointment was at Westbrook. He afterward accepted pastorates at Deep River, Simsbury, Litoh6eld, Wolcottville, Vest port King Street, stratford, Woodbury, Seymour, Windsor Locks and Southington. in all of these appointments he remained the full time allotted. His last appointment was at Plainville, here he was serving his fourth year, being the only pastor on the New Ha- ven district who was on his fourth consecu- tive year. During his last passorate he suc- ceeded in freeing the church from debt, and had many accessions to the church. Mir. Vinton was one of the most prominent and useful preachers at the Plainville camp meet ing. He was good singer, ready speaker, and often conducted the prayer services at the stand. At the Late meeting he was very active. Friday afternoon as Presiding Elder Beach was unable to stay to the close of the meeting he delegated MT. Vinton to act in his place, which he did most satisfactorily on Friday evening and at the love feast on Sat- urday morning. The funeral will be at- tended from the Methodist church this morn ing

The Door Was Opened.

The police are little amused over the re- ported attempt at burglary at the residence of MT. w. J. Atwater on Trumbull street, and are disposed to think the burglar must have been very conscientious to retire and leave valuables undisturbed after getting into the premises. The police made an examination and saw no evidences that the windows had been molested. The hired man ayers, how ever, that the back door which he had locked had been opened after he retired for the night

Entertainments.

MT. Tom Rioketts appeared to quite . large audience at Proctor's Opera House last evening in the eccentric musical drama, "Duvar." Neither the play nor the com- pany have much that is praiseworthy, but there are some first rate specialties introduo- ed and the audience seemed pleased with the performance. The Majilton family were very clever, as usual, and the singing by the Litta quartette received several encores. One of the best features of the entertainment was the London Gaiety dance by Miss Lotta Rodriguez. The chorus of eight young la dies sang and danced admirably and added much to the pleasure of the evening. "Du- var" will be repeated tonight and to-mor- TOW afternoon and evening.
