HORsR CARS PERIL.

Car No. l Of the shelton Avenue Road
 Barely Escapes . Train.
 Oar No. Il of the Broadway and Shelton avenue horse car road barely escaped demoli- tion by the 9:15 train on the Northampton road at the Shelton avenue crossing yester- day morning. It was half full of passen- gers. The horses were travelling at a rapid rate and before the driver could stop his horses the train was close at hand. The horses had reached the tracks, but on the inc stant jumped to oue eide, while the train dashed by.
 The grip of the air brakes brought the train to a standstill just as the last car had crossed the line of the street, and then, find ing that no damage had been done, the engi neer proceeded. Similar occurrences are said to be very common at the Shelton ave- nue crossing.

 LIVING IN FEAR.
 MIDDLETowN, Conn.,, March 25.-The res idents of Johnnon's Lane, 8 hamlet in the suburbs of this city, have appealed to the selectmen to send an expert to examine the dam at Hollow pond. Last Friday and Sat urdsy nights the people living below the dam sat up all night, fearing the dam would give away. The pond covers 125 acres and the dam is forty feet high. Forty or fifty families live in the hollow below the dam, and they are in constant terror of their lives.

In aquarrel years ago with an- other young man LehingwelD at ball, Greene slightly cut Lefdngweli about the face with jsckknife, but both men have always been friends since. Green had al- ways been favorite with the Briggs family, and the homicide is inexplicable to every- one.
 Mir. Greens brother went to Voluntown on Saturday night, and it is thought to be curious that he stayed at the Briggs house over Sunday. It is odd, too, the Volun- town people think, that Greens body was laid out at the Briggs home until the funer. al at o'clock yesterday afternoon.

WASHINGTON, Jan. "a large number of
congressman are down with the grippe, and
work is seriously retarded by the prevailing
sickness among the clerks in the department..
In fact, there is no business in the city that
Is not more or less affected by it. Two or
three commissioners of the district and a
large percentage of the city policemen are
down with the ailment. Fully three fourths
of the newspaper men are practically inca
paeitated for work.

The Secretary Of the Treasury in letter
to Treasurer Huston says he is advised that
the gold in the vaults of the sub-treasury in
San Francisco is in excess of $41 ,O0o, 00O, and
the total accumulation Of all kinds of money
in that Office is upwards of 500, 900, 900,
which amount is far greater than the re-.
quirements of the government for that local.
ity: In order that there may be better
distribution of assets, he suggests transfer
Of about 81, O0O,0 in gold from the San
Francisco Office to the New York Office on
the best terms, say % cents per thousand,
The details of the transfer is left to the

Catarrhal Deafness---Hay Fever.
4 NEW HOME rRrArnNT.

Sufferers are not generally aware that
these diseases are contagious, or that they
are due to the presence Of living parasites in
the lining membrane of the nose and eu-
stachian tubes. Microscopic research, how
ever, has proved this to be q fact, and the
result of this discovery is that simple
remedy has been formulated whereby Ca
tarrh, catarrhal deafness and hay fever are
permanently cured in from one to three
simple applications made at home by the
patient once in two weeks.
