DEEsTRICT sKULE.
Very Successfully Presented-Gfana Avenue Baptist Church and the Ctty Mission.

Very Successfully Presented-Gfan4 Avenue Baptist Church and she City
 Mission.
 There was a large audience at the Athene- um last evening at the entertainment given by the Grand avenue Baptist church. It wss representation of the "Old Deestrict Skule" for the benefit of the City mission. Much amusement was caused by the different speeches, songs and recitations. The stage was by far too small and it made the "schol- ars" huddle together pretty closely.
 The programme was unique and was car ried along just as though the "skuis" WAS fifty years ago in reality: l. Street scene Children going to school. 2. Roll called and school opened.
 g. Rectations, etc etc.,
 5. oid. .fasSionea Friday iGdg afternoon session. 6. Close with singing. Thirty-eight ''scholars" took part in the exercises and their costumes were quite l comical. The "high water pants" of the men and the "pantalettes" of the ladies | seemed to be the occasion of much merri. | ment.
 Some of those who enacted their parts very cleverly were s. W. Hammond as Simon Willowgad, the Pedagogue. Miss Louise Goodrich IS Bridget O'Shaugnessy, an Irish girl (who was twice encored). W. Fl. Shep' ard as Obadiah Cleaveland Measles a colored boy. Mrs. J. H. Price al Gretchen Van Botka, Dutch girl Frank Summers as Jonathan W. Slowcom' the dunce, Miss Jennie Brooks as Prudenc Ann Plunkett, Mrs. Charles French as Patt, Perrywinkle, o. J. Hull as Zsbulun Horati' Peterkin, N. A. Beebe as Michael Angelo Mre. Kay as Methusa Smartweed and MT Lantry as Peterkin. About $150 was real ized, half of which will go to the church ant the other half towards helping the city mis sions. Miss Anna B. Way very acceptabl
 rendered piano selections.

DIED FROM OPIUM POISONING.
Mrs. Ann Jones of East Street Die
 Unexpectedly.

Mrs. Ann Jones Of East Street Dies
 Unexpectedly.
 Mrs. Ann Jones, mother of William E. Jones of 3l2 East street, was taken to the hospital Monday night under the direction of Dr. Park. There she was treated for cere- bral hemorrhsge, but without avail, and she died Tuesday morning. It was supposed that she had died of cerebral hemorrhage, but the symptoms did not denote that such was the case. Coroner Mix was notified and he saw Dr. Park. The physician said that the indications at the time he saw the wo- man were of opium poisoning. He said that he had told Wardmaster Young his suspi cions and had cautioned him to tell at the hospital what he suspected. The doctor was very certain on these points. The coroner learned that Young had not told the hospi- tai physicians nything. On learning this Dr. Park stated that if Young had given the in- formation as he told him to the woman's life could undoubtedly have been saved. Coroner Mix said yesterday that 1t appeared like a case of gross carelessness on the part of Ward master Young, Tuesday night Medical Ex' sminer White made post mortem examina- ton and ascertained beyond all question that death was due to opium poisoning. She had probably obtained the drug unbeknown to her family and taken 1t.

NEWS OF THE RAILROADS.

Changes at tho Grand Central - A
 Pointer From MT. B0stWick - The
 HOusatOnic,s New Plans for Changes
 In Bridgeport.
 Says President Webb of the New York Central: Plans have been prepared for im- portant changes in the arrangement of the waiting rooms in the Grand Central station. The most important change will be the re- moval of the Hudson River and Harlem River waiting rooms from the Vanderbilt avenue side of the station to the Forty. second street end of the building. To do this the interior of the station will be re. modelled and one immense waiting room will be constructed on Forty second street. This room will extend from tho roadway opposite Fourth avenue to Vanderbilt avenue. When finished it will be the largest waiting room in the world. The reasons that led up to the change were principally connected with the complaints of strangers that trains were frequently missed because of the delay in finding out where the ticket offices of the different railroads were located.
 To a reporter who interviewed him in Dsn- yer President J. A. Bostwick of the New York and New England road said recently that he thought there was little immediate need for the construction of more railroads, as the east and south were already supplied. Commenting on this the Hartford Courant save: "This doesn't read like an argument for parallel road, and it is worth saving for reference.
 The Housstonic has changed it's plans re- garding Improvements at Bridgeport, upon it's property above the depot and the ad join ing water front, and new plans have been virtually adopted which look to the retention of the present location with great enlarge ment of the facilities. The present Housa. tonic freight house just above the Naugatuck pier is 242 feet, 8 inches in length. Join- tention one hundred and forty feet in length, bringing the stretch of buildings along the wharf front up to total of 382 feet. From the upper end of this structure line of new wharf will be run disgonally across to the Naugatuck pier, striking it sixty feet from it's outer point and 15O fee. east of the lower end of the present freight house. This tri- angular space will be filled in for wharf room, and will afford convenient access and room for discharging facilities for all kinds of vessels. Upon the wharf is to be con- structed an immense bin between two and three hundred feet long in which coal laden vessels will discharge their cargoes. On the water front side of this line will be laid tracks for the use of cars taking on coal for transportation up the road. On the opposite side are tracks to enable engines to coal up expeditiously, and at least another line of track running down to the Housatonic freight house. The plan is big one and will much increase the roads terminal accommodations at this city. It is expected that work on the improvement will be- commenced very soon.

A TRANSACTION IN
 DECORATIVE THINGS

Last week an importer of Tor toise Shell Hair Ornaments re- tired from that business. Our ready money took all he had at 90 per cent, off his cost. We have divided them into four lots, soc, 75c, 98c and $1.25. Ordinarily soc doesn't buy much of thing in real shell. Just look at these and see how unordinary the beau ty and the price. We've been selling a pretty
 little White Metal Bangle Brace
 let at 7c; we might tell you, like less scrupulous people, that it was solid silver-it looks so much like it. but it's not our way to use your confidence.
 The solid silver article costs
 little enough-25c.
 Among other things of beauty
 that we buy enough of to sell be-
 low others we might mention: Rolled Plate Eyeglass Hooks 15c each. Solid Silver Thimbles. all sizes 19c. Sterling Silver Bead Necklaces 9sc Solid Gold Tie Pins 59c. | Real Tortoise She'll Hair Pins Sc each. | Solid Silver Hair Pins 25c each. Lovers Knot" Rings. in solid gold, 75c each.

Lawn Fertilizer.

A well kept lawn is the richest adornmsnt any house can have. In fact, house with- cut lawn is like picture without a frame. In that form of home adornment the middle and poorer classes of Connecticut are behind their rich neighbors only in the extent of ground thus bsautifed. Everywhere is seen the same neat, well kept lawns, displaying the industry and neatness so characteristic of the Connecticut people. The beautiful dark green appearance of our handsomest lawns last season was due to the liberal use of Stur- tevant's Tobacco and Sulphur Fertilizer, a scientific preparation used last season with such excellent results that the coming sea- sons demand promises to be enormous. Be- sides giving the grass that beautiful dark green color so much admired, it ia absolutely odorless, becomes invisible on application and contains no weed seed.
