To Take Enect as she End of His
 Present Term-Elght and Half
 Yearss Service as SuperintenAent-
 The crowded High School-NOn-Res.
 idenss Nos to Dc Admitted After This
 Term.
 Meat of the members of the board of educa- ton were taken by surprise at the close of the meeting last evening, when Superintendent Dutton arose and read the following letter of resignation: 's
 To the Board of Education: ton as supsrintendent of schools. to take eiscS t the close ot my present term of ofdce, August Sl, @ tsics, eight % and half years % of which lave been spent In my present position, cannot retire with board in my efforts to raise the standard Of teach front @ raS In the earnest hope that the future stiii more than they have done n the past remain Yours very respectIuiy,
 It Is understood that MT. Dutton has under consideration the offer of similar position in Brookline, Mass. -
 The meeting last night was long and spir- ited. The questions arose over the action taken last week by the committee on schools in granting second examination to certain number who had failed by a narrow margin to pass the examination for the high school. This matter gave rise to an hour or more of sharp interpretation of constitutional points and parliamentary usages. The board did not sustain the action of the committee, by vote of 5 to 4.
 Another matter that caused much discus. sion was the present crowded condition of the high school, and motion was made to obviate this difliculty by having an afternoon session for the fourth class, which was re- fsrred to the committee.
 It was voted that after this term no non resident pupils be admitted to the school until better accommodations are afforded. A petition presented by committee from the Patriotic Sons of America and en- dorsed by the Grand Army and United Or- der of America Mechanics for having the
 national flag on ell puhlio school buildings,
 was referred to the committee on buildings. The salary of $s50 was voted to Charles | Blakeslee, the jsnitor of Lowell school, and the same amount to W. o. Palmer ot Dwight school.
 An increase of fifty dollars was granted to Janitor Case of the Ferry street school In lieu of extra duties, his salary now to be five hundred dollars.
 The resignation of Miss Charity Hyde was accepted.

FOR TwENTY.FIVE YEARS.

Engineer J. N. Toocker's Long Ser.
 vlce-A HandsOne Gift or Frisnd-
 ship.
 Mir. James B. Toocksr. for the past twenty five years engineer of steamer No. 1, was presented with e beautiful antique oak sec- retary with gold plated metal trimmings yesterday afternoon by the members of Company No. 1, the engineers assistant en- gineers, and stokers of the fire department, in recognition of his long services in the de- partmsnt. It was just twenty five years ago yesterday morning, that MT. Toocker became member of the New Haven fro department and the engineer of No. 1. He was not of duty day from sickness until seven years ago, when as his engine was going down Congress avenue on the way to the clock shop fire, he was thrown by Q sudden jolt off the engine between the rear wheel and the boiler. The tire of the wheel cut through his coat and ground the letters of one of tho buttons on his vest, and 1t was only by very great effort that he was able to keep his throat from the wheel. It was very narrow escape from death, but he escaped without any greater injury than severe strains, which kept him off duty for ten days. During his entire twenty five years of service he has lost less than forty days from sickness. He has been at all the large fires that have occurred in the oity during that period, except the one at Sperry & Barnes', five years ago, when he was away on vacation. Before hs came to New Haven he was the engineer of steamer No. in Hartford, and on coming here he became engineer of old No. l, the pioneer steam fire engine in the eastern states.
 Although over fifty years cid, Mir. Toocker does not look over forty and is as hale and hearty as any man in the department.

HARTFORD DEFEATED

By . Score of Nine 10 Four-many
 Brilliant Plays - Five Hundred
 Present-Game Called as the End of
 The Eighth Inning on Account of
 Darkness.
 Hartford was not in the game yesterday afternoon with New Haven at the Howard avenue grounds after the first two innings. The visitors took big lead in the first in- ming, but they got no further, while the To- cal team tied the score, then forged ahead and crossed the Hne an easy victor. As Q game 1t was very exciting, and 1t abounded with brilliant plays throughout. The threat ening weather had the effect of keeping . number away, but nsarly five hundred cranks witnessed the contest, and they made themselves conspicuous on several occasions by yelling at Umpire Kelly. at what they considered his bad dscisions on balls and strikes. Probably Mr. Kelly's judg- ment on balls and strikes yesterday was little rough, but he showed no favoritism or partiality. He took no back talk from the players, and 1t cost Doyle i've dollars and Forster ten dollars for kicking about his decisions. though Doyle's five was little severe.
 Gilliland pitched for the home team and outside-of the first inning did himself proud. He sent them over the plate with smoke on them and kept the visitors guessing about all tine time. Winkleman pitched for the visit- ors and although the home players only got six hits of him tkey woold undoubt- edly have got more had he put them over. He was very wild, giving fourteen men bases op balls and four of them scored.
 When the game started 1t looked like rain every minute and the first half of the first
 tuning had only been played when the rair came down in torrents and the umpire called play. After wait of nearly half an hour the sun came out again and play was resumed and the game continued until the end of the eight inning when Mir. Kelly called the game on'acoount of darkness. Henry made great catch in the fourth inning of fly after @ long hard run, and Lally went him one better in the sixth
 inning by catching fly from Henry's bat over bis shoulder on dead run and with | the bases full. It would have been good for three bases sure if he had not got it. Say made clever play in the first inning by grabbing "Big Lotus" liner of third base and touching the bag and retiring Mckee, making double unassistsd. A sharp play
 occurred in the fourth inning which
 left the Hartford base runners in a
 trance for Q short time. Murray
 one out. Henry popped up fly, which
 Lang got under, but he dropped it. The
 base runners hugQed their bases, thinking
 that "Snap" would hold 1t, not expecting
 him to drop 1t. "Snap" was quick, how- ever, and he picked it up and threw 1t to Doyle, forcing Murray out at second. Doyle threw to Petit, but Pettit dropped it and Annis was safe, but Henry in the meantime had not run and Psttit picked the ball uI | quickly and threw him out at frat, retiring the side.

 Especial to the COURIER
 MEsIDEN, May 16-There was conference here this afternoon between Colonel Doherty of the Second regiment and the condmittee of arrangements who are to entertain the regi- ment on May 2s. the day of the field day maneuvers. The committee propose to raise $500 or more to entertain the visitors. Colonel Deherty told the gentlemen of the committee that they could expect about 1, 200 to be present. He eaid that the governor and staff, the adjutant general and his staff, the colouels of the four regiments with their staffs would surely be present. He also ex- psoted that the adjutant general of the Mas sachusetts militia with his staff would also be present. A number of regular army off, cers will also be present, although 1t Is not yet known just who will come. to send. corps of reporters and ars- ists to this city on the 28sh to take sketches of the scene. After the meeting Colonel Doherty and Captain Bowen went to Broad street and after looking over the ground decided that 1t would ba the best to hold the street riot drill and tho dress parade. It is the widest street in the city and will answer admirably for the drill. Colonel Doherty also had an inter. view with Superintendent Crawford of the Ksriden, Waterbury and Cromwell railroad and 1t was decided to have the troops who are to come over the road from Waterbury and Middletown disembark at South Meriden in order to make the march to Wallingford as short as possible. The committee of arrangements will meet on Monday or Tuesday of next week when the committees will be announced. IL Is in- tended to have @ reception committee to look after the comfort of the governor and staff; another to take care of the regular army officers and visitors and another to wait upon the state officers. The veteran corps of Com- pany will set to work at once to raise the necessary money to properly entertain the distinguished guests, and altogether 1t will be the biggest day of the sort Meriden ever | enjoyed
