Burdock's leg was not broken as was
supposed, and he expects to play in q

Glasscock had 10 chances on Wednes

President Won der Abe is having more

refused to report yesterday, and said
that he was going to jump the club and
didn't care whether he would be black
listed or not. Earle wanted some more
advance under his contract of $4,000, and

is in debt to him, and refuses to play
until he is paid.

DodRinR Census Questions.

Says the Bridgeport Farmer: "As a
rule the members of the medical profess
sion strongly object to filling out the
census blanks sent them by the supervi-
sor, because answers to some of the
questions would constitute breach of that
confidence and secrecy which are sup
posed to be maintained between the
patient and his doctor. The writer to
day inquired of a physician of this city
if he had filed out the blanks and made
the returns as complete as was
called for. With sly expression of
humor, he replied: 'Oh, yes, that was
easy enough to do, and without dis
closing professional secrets either. The
way l managed it was to take a brief
vacation and go out of town The yacs.
ton lasted only one day, but before
starting I turned over my patients to
the care of other doctors. Then during
my absence I filled out my blank with
the report that I had no patients suffer
ing with the diseases or infirmities that
the profession object to making disclo-
sures about. They were not at that
time my patients and so I complied
with the law sufficiently for all pur-
poses, and at the same time got around
the other difficulty"

Charges Preferred Against Those
Who Control the Stratford Home.
BRIDGEPORT, June 13.-The Catholic
portion Of the population Of this city are
greatly stirred up lat the present time
over the manner in which Catholic
children are being treated at the county
home In Stratford, and the matrons at
sioners are being severely scored by
prominent Catholics about town. HUI
name Agent Middlebrook is the only
one, they claim, who has acted with
any degree of fairness and decency in
the matter, and legal proceedings have
been instituted against those who con-
troll the county home. A Catholic law
yer, who visited the institution few
days ago was told by the matron that
ali children in the home were taught the
Protestant religion. The lawyer report
ed the fact to the Catholic clergy and
legal step will be taken against the
| managers.
The most serious case which has ever
been brought to the attention of Father
Nihill in relation to the Stratford home,
is that of Mamie Keefe, little girl who
was turned over to the matron at the
county home in March 1887. The child
has been given out to some family and
neither the matron nor the county com
missioners would tell her parents OF
Father Nihin where the little one is. The
priest invoked the aid of Humane Agent
Middlebrook, and the latter was in q
very indignant frame of mind when hi
called upon the commissioners. Although
he told the commissioners that be
would give them but "a hours in which
to furnish the desired in formation, they
did not become alarmed, and the child'i
whereabouts is still unknown to the
the parents, Father Nihin and the hu
name agent.

DUpED BY "sPIRIT LETTERS"
How Mrs Smith Lost Property She Is
Irving to Recover.


Trying to Recover.
A very peculiar case is now on the
docket of the superior court at New
Haven. Mrs Charlotte Smith, an aged
widow, received by deed from her hus-
band, real estate in West Haven worth
about $4,000. Her son, Leverett Smith,
Represented to his mother that Hanford
Smith, an elder brother, was about to
have conservator appointed over her
estate. To defeat this plan Leverett sug-
gested that his mother convey the pro-
perty to him, which she did, reserving
to herself life estate. Difficulties
arose, and Mrs Smith demanded that her
son deed back the property. He refused
but offered to buy her life interest on a
mortgage. His mother refused the
offer. but was prevailed upon subse-
quently to agree to it by letter pur-
porting to be from her deceased hus-
band, and written through Mrs Lucy E.
Hitchcock of Prospect, a trance medium.
Some other letters of similar character
came through the same source. Mrs
Smith is a splritualist. She had faith in
the letters and consequently agreed to
her sons proposition. She now sues
through Attorney c. K. Bush, to have
the deeds and agreement set aside on the
ground of fraud.

Amelia Glave, the young girl who has
been missing since May IL, returned
from New York this morning after
another unsuccessful search for his

made two trips to New York for the
purpose of looking up his daughter and
he made the last one on Monday. MI

trace Of the girl. Amelia was about IA
years old, of light complexion with blue
eyes and flaxen hair and when she left
home wore a red dress with light yellow
trimmings. Mr. Glave traced the girl a.
far as the Grand Central depot but there
lost all trace of her.
Mr. Glave when seen by Connecticut
Associated Press representative to-day
said he had succeeded in finding the
man who formerly worked for him and
had him arrested. Having no proof
that the fellow knew of the whereabouts
Of his daughter, he was discharged. MI
Glave will Immediately close out his
business here and return to New Yorl

A shore Line Freight Train in Great
Peril.
NEW HAVEN, June 13.-The local
freight train which reaches New London
about 6 o'clock from New Haven ran
into an open draw at East River yester-
day afternoon. The engine was cap
sized and. partially wrecked, and three
cars were badly smashed. Strange to
relate no one was injured. Station
Agent Tourtellotte had just previously
hoisted the red ball and opened the draw
to permit the passage of a sloop up the
river. The vessel had passed, and he
was attempting to shut the draw when
the freight train in charge of Conductor
Lynch appeared. The engine was No
III and in charge of Engineer Rogers.
He says he did not see the danger signal.
The train was going at a slow rate Of
speed. Both the firemen and engineer
stuck to their posts as the engine went
over on its side against the side of the
bridge. Their escape was miraculous.
A wrecking train was made up at New
Haven. The road was cleared before
midnight.

Murderer Scheele a. Vet Makes no
Attempt at Suicide.
BRIDGEPORT, June 13.-Jacob Scheele,
the condemned murderer of Louis
Drucker, now in Jail under sentence of
death for the second time, has as yet
made no attempt to carry out his threat
of suicide made in court before receiving
sentence. He eats and sleeps well and
displays no signs of narrowing mental
anxiety. The Jail officials, recalling his
despair and desperation and his attempt
to kill himself as the first date set for
hanging drew near, can only account
for his present tranquility on the theory
that he yet retains faith in the power OF
his counsel to save him second time.
A close watch is kept upon him not.
withstanding his resignation and appar.
ent cheerfulness, and when the time fol
his execution approaches this vigilance
will be materially increased.
