pr. DOrmanss Lectures Before the "
 M. O. A.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 During the week two scientific lectures were given before the Y. M. 0. A. by Dr.. c. A. Dorman of this city. On both oc- casions the hall was filled by intelligent audiences, including men of note and dis tinction, who listened with profound in- terest to man whose moral status as an evangelist and reputation as a medical practitioner for twenty-five years entities him to speak with authority upon the great social evils of the day. Lecture No. 1, tThe Physiological and Pathological Effects of Alcohol" was keen analysis of the destructive influence of strong drink upon the vital organs, the nervous centers and the various functions of the brain. With calm but relentless purpose the doctor pursued the drink fiend to his darkest recesses, piercing the monster at every turn with his keen Damascus blade, and at last held him up to the scorn and contempt of the world
 Lecture No. 9. 'tThe Horrible Effects of Impurity," was masterly exposition of the secret vices through which the "stars of heaven fall and the cedars of Lebanon are laid low" The audience listened with bated breath as the doctor depicted the chamber of horrors with it's trembling idiotic forms futtering between life and death on the verge of the grave. In the spell-bound audience many lip quivered and many cheek turned pale at the ghastly sights behind the scenes of so called Youthful follies." Such lectures are the crying need of the age and the lack of such education is painful vacuum in modern ethics and civilization, but it is hopeful sign of the times when such men as Dr. Dorman step forward and ristian.herofsm enough to fillup that vacuum.
 Both lectures are copiously illustrated by large graphic oil paintings depicting every phase of the subjects. These paintings were taken from nature by the doctor him. self, and constitute in themselves an un- impeachable sermon on the Wages of Sin"

 The board of finance voted last evening to recommend that $5, 900 be transferred from the road roller and crusher appropri- ations to general repairs and $1O0 more from fine same source for street grading, and $8, 900 from the same for paving and hardening of streets, the last amount to apply in hardening Daggett and George streets. The board recommended the hardening of George street because said street was torn up preparatory to harden ing, previous to the passage of the court of common coucil that all orders be exc cuted in order of their passage.
 The board also recommended that the board of public works be empowered after November to expend all the balances of this amount as it deems best for the city's interest The cobbling of Temple street from Grown street to Congress avenue was favorably considered.
 It was recommended that two-thirds of the strip of land in the rear of city hall and the county building owned by the Associatiated Charities and United Work CTS, be purchased at blank sum and the remaining bue.thiyd condsmusd.

No Free Clinic saturday,

< Dr. Damon, who has been creating so much excitement by his marvellous cures at the Atheneum, announces that, owing to the hall being engaged by others on Saturday, he will not be there until the following Monday. During the week sev- eral persons have been cured of ills that have baf1ed the skill of other physicians for years, and it would seem that the doc tor did not care much what sort of case presents itself on the stage for treatment as he is equally successful with all. One who has attended every clinic says that not one failure has been made in any case to give relief Of course no one knows just how these remarkable cures are performed, but the fact remains. They are performed daily, and in rapid succession. There is no de. nying the fact that Dr. Damon is indeed possessed of wonderful power over dis ease and, unlike other physicians, he goes upon the public platform and demonstrates his ability before multitudes of people every afternoon. In different parts of this country and Europe the doctor has been the recipient of elegant testimonials and gifts from persons he has cured. Only recently he was presented with magnifi- cent gold watch and chain with large diamond 1ocket, together with handsome
 tsStimQnial encased in amassivegold frame.
 These beautiful gifts are all from grateful patients and are highly prized by the doc

 His sudden Death at His Home Yes-

 long Isestdent of This city.
 Mir. Charles w. Mott. the faithful and trusted bookkeeper for many years of the B. Shoninger company, fell dead on the threshold between the sitting room and hallway at his residence yesterday morning about 7:80 o'clock. --.ss1-.l----s..s..-.@ss..--.
 Mir. Mott arose in the morning in his usual health and after eating breakfast went into the sitting room, where his wife, who is an invalid, was sitting. He then started to the door leading into the hall, way. He had half opened the door, when hestaggered back, putting ou this hand and catching hold of . bookcase in the endeavor to save himself from falling The effort was in vain, for he fell backward full length upon the floor. ( The servant girl, who was in the next room, was the first to reach his side, as Mrs. Mott in her enfee- bled condition was unable to go as quickly. MT. Nott was still breathing, but was un- conscious, and expired in few moments. A messenger was dispatched to summon Dr. Paul Skiff, who has been Mr. Nott's family physician for many years. MT. Mott was breathing when the messenger was sent, but he died before the doctor ar rived. His death was so sudden and unlocked for that it completely prostrated his wife. The news shocked and pained all who knew and admired him. The cause of death was undoubtedly heart disease, from which he
 had been suffering for some time, and al | though he was probably aware of the | presence of the dread disease, he was so kind and thoughtful of his family that he | carefully kept the truth concealed from | them, and affected cheerfulness among | them in order to better conceal the real | state of his health. MT. Mott was sixty 1 four years of age, and was life
 long resident of New Haven. His father
 was the late Riley Mott. who fo1
 many years kept one of the best known \ stores on Chapel street. MT. Mott was fol
 many years bookkeeper at Cooks carriage factory on State street, where Hooker's
 now is. For the past twentyfour years 1 he was bookkeeper for B. Shoninger & O. l on Chapel street, corner of Chestnut He
 was of quiet, retiring disposition, wal faithful and reliable in all his business life and was respected and liked by all who knew him. For many years MT. Mott re l sided at 65 William street, where he die6 | yesterday. Mr.. Mott was 2 prominent
 member of City lodge, LOOT. .ts-.,1f Mr. Nott's own immediate family con I sisted of his wife, daughter -in-law, Mrs Charles H. R. Mott, and grandson, Wilfrei
