 said the will was drawn up a quarter of century ago when the city was not developed to the extent 1t now is. Then there were not several charitable institutions which have recently come into existence. Philip Marett had made provision in his will for such a state of things. He foresaw this and made a second provision for his benefciaries. do would benefit the poor. think it would tend to encourage pauperism. What the poor need is encouragement more than help of this kind. England, where such funds exist abundantly, is overrun with paupers. I think the government of New Haven perfect ly able to administer this fund, but think the deserving poor would receive little bene- fit from it.
 Ray. E. s. Lines of St. Paul's church said the citizens of New Haven or the common council were not to make MT. Marett's will nor declare how it should have been made. In all equity to MT. Marett the city should endeavor to execute his wishes, provided it can legally do so, and 1t has been clearly shown by the eminent legal gentlemen press ent that 1t can. I think board of men could legally and fairly administer this fund a great mistake to commit this fund to any society or organization. There is s great body of people in New Ha- ven who are near the point of paupers in the land, and think proper ad ministration of this fund would save most of them from absolute paupsrism. Before this fund ia refused think it ought to be seen if 1t cannot be placed in the hands of board. or commission, where it can accomplish the good intended by Philip Marett. I do not think it wise to decline the fund upon the ground that the oity is incompetent to sd- minis CT it. Those who represent the city to day ought to demonstrate that it is possible to wisely and fairly assume the trust.
 M. M. Gower said it was question of jus tiee. Here is Q bequest left by Philip Marett to the poor of the city. Shall the poor be robbed of their inheritancea All ages have seen men ready to rob the poor of their due and ready to advance nnmberless excuses for SD doing. The intent of Philip Marett should be religiously executed.

The Red-headed Girl and the Painter.

famous painter, an enthusiast in his art has
craze for models with red hair, says a New
York letter to the Utica Observer. He was
going through downtown street when he
happened to see young girl with the all
desired locks hurrying along with a pitcher of
beer. She was a striking specimen of animal
beauty, and she did not seem to have very
much to protect her from the breeze besides
the clinging calico wrapper that draped her fine
form. The moment the artist saw her ne
quickened her pace calling out as he ap-
preached:
Hi, there you girl! you with the red hair
Stop" She gave swift look over her shoulder,
and, seeing the strange man making toward
her. she began to run. The artist did likewise
Down the street fled the terrified girl, her face
as white as death and her beer stopping over as
she flew along. The street boys Joined in the
chase and policeman, thinking the girl thief,
intercepted and brought her to a halt, painting
like deer.
Il have done nothing she cried, glazing at
the artist as he came up
Has she stolen anything from you?" asked
the policeman.
20, no. indeed" replied the artist, ''I never
saw her before. l OILY wanted to ask her to
come up to my studio and pose for me. I am an
artist, you know, and need red hair"
The boys set up shout. The policeman
looked at the artist as though he were an es-
capped lunatic and called him a very eloquent
name. The girl in the meantime had recovered
her breath, and when the undaunted artist
asked if she was willing to pose for him she de.
clined in language that made the gamins howl
with delight and gave the artist a shock that he
will never get over.

He Was a StalWart.

member Of the congressional party which
visited Yorktown on Tuesday to celebrate the
anniversary of the surrender of CORVALLIS
tells good story at the expense Of Representa-
tive Baker OF New York, whose geniality is
proverbial. When the steamer Charlotte, of
the York River line, reached West Point,
the captain announced that an opportunity
would be given those who wished to inspect the
town for an hour. So Mr.. Baker invited Repre-
sentative Morrill, of Kansas and Sherman to
join him In a drive, and accordingly chartered
one of the ancient hacks left by CORVALLIS to
drive them about for half an hour. or a
dollars worth"
AS Mr.. Baker never neglects an opportunity
70 play prank on a colleague-especially on
Mr. Morrill, he waited until the venerable
darky, who was doing the 'tjehu act" had
closed glowing description of West Point, and
quietly remarked to Mr. Morrill, Now. Mr..
Blaine, if you could only get President Harrison
70 recommend an appropriation for the building
OF college here it would be the making of West
Point The remark visbly startled the driver.
Approaching the joke, and desiring to turn it
upon Mr.. Baker, Mr.. Morrill, replied:
oh. certainly, Mr.. Morton, l will do that;
but why don't you pass bill through the SEN
ate appropriating the money. and get Speaker
reed here TO put 1t through the House? Rep
resenJative Sherman promptly remarked that
ne would rush it through the House" The
darkey nearly fell off the box in fit. Here
he was driving about in his hack Vice President
Morton, Speaker Reed and Secretary Blaine
whispering TO the boy on the seat with him,
the news was soon scattered among the entire
colored population of West Point
which gathered on the wharf to see
the distinguished trio. With hat ia haud
and bowling and scraping in the most profound
manner as they alighted, the old man remarked
to Mr.. Baker as he banded out the dollar: Look
heah, Mr.. Morton, Use always been stiff repub-
iican, and voted for you and Marse Harrison
two years ago. and, if you has no objection
please 'scuse de old man for axing it, case he s
awful poah-can'I you make dat S2?'
To confess the joke would have disgraced

word the jolly Baker handed over another
dollar, and set up the lemonade and cigars the
balance of the trip whenever he was addressed
as Mr. Morton"

QUEEN VICTORIA.
What She Drinks and Why the Court Phvsi.
clan Recommended Ii.


The London World has been making an in
vestigation of what the Queen drinks and has
ascertained definitely that, upon the advice Of
Sir William Jenner, she drinks whiskey diluted
in water. This is for the purpose of retaining
her vigor. renewing her strength and prolong-
ing her life. The whiskey which she drinks is
obtained from the distillery on her own Raj
moral estate. and of course is perfectly pure
Thus the World offers valuable suggestion in
this fact: Englaud's sovereign drinks whissav
under the recommendation of the court pbysi-
clan and on account of its medical properties
and she drinks it absolutely pure, having it dis
titled upon her own estate. These facts provo
two things: First, that all modern medical
science demonstrates the superior value Of
whiskey for sustaining the health and prolono-
ing the life; and second, that it must be abso-
lutely pure. The leading American physicians
and chemists have Endorsed these views con.
stantly and emphasized the necessity of havin,
whiskey that is absolutely pure. The best
medical and chemical talent in America has
shown conclusively that no whiskey known in
the market is so pure as Dufy's Malt II IL
wholly free from fusl oil it is unlike all other
socalled whistles. and it Is doing great thinSs
for the health of the community So true is
this, that while many temperance people de-
nounce WHISTLES and liquors in general, thew
acknowledge the superior merit of Duffy IS MALI
and use 1t incidentally continually. Great carr
should be exercised, however. to secure No
other, no matter how hard a dealer NAV seek IN
