will be held. Herr Most and Mrs. Lucy
Parsons, wife of one of the Chicago an
archists, were to speak but Mrs. Parsons
is now in jail at Newark, N. j., for incit-

The Manufacturers Employees to Pa
rade To-NIorrow Night-A Prohibi-
ton Ticket Also Talked of.
There remains about three weeks before
the people Of New Haven viii be called
upon to decide a city election. In the
democratic party there is already going on
vigorous fight for the mayoralty nomina-
ton. J. B. Sargent, 9. T. Driscoll, f. s.
Andrew and James N. States are all out
for the prize, and there is some mention of
the name Of Hon. John 81. Leeds. There
will be q big Sargent demonstration to-
morrow night. At this time 1t is expected
that every man employed at Sargent's fac
tory will turn ont and display themselves
in the parade. A band, red fire and the
usual attendant enthusiasm are expected
to be features Of the event. 1t is generally
considered that the free trader and manu-
facturer will not find it an easy task TO se-
cure the nomination. States is thought to
favor Driscon for the nomination, and the
following Of these two men in the party is
very powerful.
A new feature of the campaign 10 antici
psted In the nomination Of a prohibition
town and city ticket, at which some Of
those In the party are now busily engaged,
it is said.

Haven.
A very delightful praise service was
given last evening in the Second Congre-
gational church of Fair Haven. The music
by the choir was of a high order of merit,
and in the hymns the congregation joined
in with hearty viii. The choir was ably
assisted by Miss Hazlet and Miss Roberts,
the soprano and alto singers of Center
church. Solos rendered by Messrs. Har-
wood and Mead of the choir and Miss Haz-
let were excellent. Mr.. Percy of Center
church presided at the organ. Rev. Mr..
James, the pastor of the church, made 9
brief but interesting discourse.

AT ST. THOMAS.
A LouisviIle Divine Onaciates Yester.

al.
A Louisville Divine Omciates Yester-
day.
Rev. Mr.. Barnwau of Louisville, KY,
preached in st. Thomas church yesterday.
Mr. Barnwan is rector of st. Johns church
in Louisville, the church which was COM
pletely destroyed by the disastrous cyclone
which overlook that city some time since,
and in which the former rector and his
son perished. Mr.. Barnwall, who is a
cousin of the former rector, and was called
to the church as his successor, is engaged
in touring the cities of the north, endeavor-
ing to raise funds with which to rebuild
the old historic church edifce. His dis
cription of the ravages of the cyclone were
very graphic and very interesting to his
auditors. The music at the services was
of the usual high standard. The choir are
very busily engaged rehearsing the music
for Thanksgiving, on which day the music
will be a special feature of the services.
The Finest I'm Hartford County-A
Former New Havenerss Purchase.
The most notable purchase of horsehesh
in these parts that has lately been made is
that Of q pair of thoroughbreds which
Charles P. Merwin, esq.,, of New Britain,
formerly of the firm of Stoddard, Kimber-
ly & Co. of this city, recently brought
from Kentucky. Richmond" and fsRollo''
are q remarkably well matched pair of
geldings and show in every line and fea-
ture their patrician blood, for both were
sired by noted son of the famous Blue
Bull. They stand close up to sixteen
hands high and tip the beam at $500
pounds. Their age is respectively five and
six years. In color they are pefect golden
chestnut--veritable beauties both. This
fine team hooked into Mr. Merwin's swell
English surrey with the proper trappings
make turnout at once q credit to his
good taste and valuable addition to the
none too long list of gentlemen's driving
establishment. New Britain people claim
that this is altogether the finest srigp in
Hartford county, and that is, likely
enough, the modest way the denizens Of
that equine-favored region have Of allow
ing they 'sdo up" the balance Of the whole
state.
Mr.. Merwin's close attention to his ever
prespering business made it necessary for
him to adopt something in the way Of
recreation. and but little encouragement
was needed to revive his boyhood's fancy
for mans noble friend, the horse, and he
has from time to time added to his stud
until now, with this remarkable addition,
his private stable seems complete.
