DAUGHTER OF A COMMODORE

The Wander1ngs of a Women Seventy Three Years old Who Once Lived In Wealth and Was E9eIIcted to she En- glIsh Nobility.
 A particularly interesting and at the same
 time peculiar woman is she who gives her name as Mrs. H. N. Arnott, at present at
 the almshouse. Sue once lived in wealth and
 belonged to high English family. She is 73 years old, and, by her grace and refinement, shows to have been an edu. cated woman. But she has terrible temper,
 and on Tuesday it took several people to handle her when she was taken to the aims house.
 It was in October last that she applied roMr. Sleeman, who runs the Chapel street intelli- gence office, for 8 position as servant in some family. As she seemed possessed of traits of character generally absent in people who act as servants, MT. Sleeman became inter- ested in her and notified MT. Preston, of the Associated Charities.
 MT. Preston tried to find out something of 1 her history, but she refused point blank to | divulge anything.
 Work was secured for her in the family of ! one of New Haven's doctors. She had little ! to do, as there were only the doctor and his ! wife. She stayed there but six or seven i weeks, because she thought she ought to get | ful1swages.
 She returned to the associated charities. 1 and in conversation with Mr. Preston she | stated that her husband was S2 years old, | and that he snd her adopted son and daugh- | ter had abused her SO cruelty and treated her | in such manner that she left her home. She refused to state where they lived. For ! one of her age she seemed wonderfully spry. ! MT. Preston thought that she acted little Y as if she was out of her head but he thought \ her very intelligent for one of her kind. On December 16 she went to Neriden and ! secured work there. On Friday last she re- | turned to New Haven. She said that while | in Meriden she had had an attack of pneu- ! monia. She was more feeble than when she 1 went away.
 Agent Preston tried to have her eat some 1 thing. She refused and seemed provoked be- cause he offered her eatables. He wanted her to have medical aid. She became furious. Finally doctor was called without her consent, and he recommended that she be taken to the almshouse.
 The next day she was so i'll that Dr. Bis- sell was called, and he said she ought to be taken to the hospital.
 When the ambulance arrived she would not stir, and the men had to carry her by main force. At the hospital she was so flu rious that the authorities there said she was insane and that they could not take her in Then she was carried to the almshouse. | When she returned from Meriden Agent Prescott learned further from her that her father was Commodore Williams of the British navy. She had at one time lived in Utica, N. Y., where she was married thirty years ago at No. 30 Broad street.

A HARTFORD MERCHANT
Defrauded Of s5, ,ooO by an Assistant il
 Business.

Defrauded or $5 ,0oO by an Assistant i'm Business.
 HARTFORD, Feb. 6.-Mr. H. J. Case, the well known North Main street grocer, has been defrauded to the amount of some $5, 900 through the dishonesty of Fred G. Perry of the firm of Perry, Heffion & Co.,, corner of Main and TrumbuIl streets, of which firm MT. Case wac partner. Perry was former ly of Winsted, but went into the employ of
 MT. Case when he was in business at 439
 Main street about five years ago. Mir. Case found his business running behind, notwith-
 standing his trade kept up. About year ago he sold out at 43o and went into business on the corner of Trumbull street, giving Perry and Hetf1on an interest in the concern. Still his business kept running behind. MT. Case paid in $1, 200 to float the ship, and still kept running behind. Finally he found that Perry had been collecting money for g long time without turning it into the concern and
 confronted Perry with the facts. Perry fled
 the same night. Nr. Case estimates his loss at nearly if not quite 5000. Perry's wife is
 most estimable lady, and they have three
 children. When MT. Case took Perry into
 partnership he rented him his house on
 Bellevue street at a nominal price, and at the
 time lent him money to pay his debts. Now
 his generosity is repaid by gross ingratitude.

CONSTITUTIONAL cATARRH.
Absolutely Pure.

No single disease has entailed more suffering or hastened the breaking up of the constitution than Satarrh. The of smell, of taste of sight, of hearing, the human voice, the mind-one or more, and sometimes all, yield to its destructive iDfu- ence. The poison 1t distributes throughout the system attacks every vital force and breaks up the most robust of constitutions Ignored, because but little understood, b. most physicians, impotently assailed by quacks and charlatans, those suffering from it have little hope to be relieved this side of the grave. It is time, then that the popular treat ment of this terrible disease by remedies within the reach of all passed into hands at once compe- tent and trustworthy. The new and hitherto un- tried method adopted by Dr. Sanford in the prepar- ation of his Radical Cure has won the hearty ep- proval of thousands It Is instantaneous in afford ing relief in all head colds. sneezing, snufhing and obstructed breathing, and rapidly removes the most oppressive symptoms, clearing the head, sweetenng the breath, restoring the senses of smell, taste and hearing, and neutralizing the con- stitutional tendency of the disease towards the lungs, liver and kidneys.
 Sanfords Radical Cure consists of one bottle of the Radical Cure, one box of Catarrhal Solvent and Improved Inhaler; price $1.00.

The Company Enjoined.

Papers have been served by Prof. Simeon E. Baldwin to restrain the stockholders of the Diamond Match company from removing the plant to Illinois. The injunction was brought by s. H. Stern of New York, one of the stockholders, and granted by Judge San ford Mir. Stern is of the opinion that such a business change would be disastrous for the Diamond Match company. He believes that the promoters and approvers of this change have been influenced by some desire to gain personal profit to themselves. A meeting of stockholders was held in the In- surance building here yesterday. Stern holds fifty shares in the company.
