ON BOARD A STEAMER.
A Letter From a New Haven MAJ
on the Steamship Teutonia.

Letter From q New Haven Man
ON the Steamship Teutonia.
The following letter was received from
New Haven business man, Mr.. Hurle of
Center street, who is now in Europe, by a
friend of his in this city:
STEAMSHIP TEUToNIA,
July 7, 1891.
My Dear Friend:-I made no mistake
when decided on this ship as being the
best one on which to take passage. It is
the most comfortable one in which I have
ever crossed the ocean and this is my
seventh trip. The cabins are clean, light
and roomy and they are also finely ventil-
ated. Ali accommodations are in fact
equal to those which are to be had at the
best hotels in the country.
We have on board $40 souls all told,
three hundred of them being saloon
passengers. AS to the saloon passengers
almost every profession is represented.
Theology, law, medicine, theatrical, mill
tary, and men of leisure. There are 202
cabin passengers and their accommoda-
tions are perfect, being better than first
class accomm odations on some other steam
ers.
We left the dock few minutes after 2
p. NJ, went through the narrows at 3, put
off the pilot at 345, and started off at
SOOu Speeu. 4uo SlCy VI oAoStCI euai uCo
at the same time, but we soon left her be-
hind. Thursday evening we passed a large
steamer burning red and blue light.
Friday morning little rough weather
sent some of the voyagers to their cabins
with blue lines around their gills, but in
the afternoon all was smooth again. The
same day we passed the steamer Etruria.
On the Fourth of July the ship was
decorated with flags and several patriotic
speeches were made. On Sunday we had
Episcopal service in the saloon with
short sermon and the steerage passengers
on the deck below exercised their lungs
on "Swect Bye and Bye" Saturday and
Sunday we made 900 miles.
The weather has been simply fine and
the sea as smooth as Lake Whitney on a
summer day.
It is very amusing to look over onto the
deck below and see the preparations of
cooking for the steerage passengers. I
counted ten people busy Smelling peas all
one forenoon and peeling barrels of po-
tatoes. We do not get the slightest smell
of cooking. We expect to reach Queens
town Tuesday afternoon, when I shall send
this ashore. We hope to reach tomorrow
noon.
With regards, am as ever your friend.

NEELY,s HORSES.

Two New York Gentlemen Looking
mt Them-Estimated Value Of the
Pair.
Two gentlemen named Findley and Ed
Cernea, both of New York, recently came
to this city to look at William Neely's
black pair Rocket and Gerold. John B.
Judd, who has the horses in training,
showed them to the gentlemen, who were
looking at them with the idea of buying.
Mr.. Judd showed the pair at 40 gait,
which was all the speed that the visitors
cared to see, as they were well posted re-
garding the time made by the pair in their
recent public performances. The pair
trotted mile on half-mile ring in 2:304
at the time of the recent Norwalk meeting.
At the June meeting at Hartford the pair
trotted a mile at the following rate by
quarters: First quarter 36a, half 1:13,
three-quarters 1911, mile 2:30a. This
performance was at fast rate to the
three-quarter pole, where one of the pair
made break, which prevented much
lower record. ~
As Mr. Nicely was out of the city on his
vacation the gentlemen had no converse
ton regarding purchase.
A gentleman who is familiar with the
pail, and is we'll posted regarding the value
of fast pairs, made the remark yesterday
that he doubted if he could purchase the
equal of this pair for $4,000, as these
horses are remarkably kind and docile and
are very fast.

Agent Hart Resigns.

John J. Hart, the popular and genial
agent for the United States Express COM
pany in Bridgeport, has resigned his po-
sitiou with the above company. Mr.. Hart
is widely known in New Haven, his home
for many years. he was for some time
agent of the line of steamboats, that pre-
coded the Starin line. Yesterdays Bridge
port Standard says: ''Mr. Hart has been
identified with the express business for the
past twenty years, understands it thor
oughly in all its branches, and the
Estates" will lose valuable and faithful
employee. He is arranging to engage in
other business which he thinks will be of
more benefit 10 himself personally, and his
friends certainly hope he will be success
full. Mr.. Hart has been connected with
the United States Express company ever
since they opened an Office in this city, and
is exceedingly popular among the shippers
and patrons of the company. His resig-
nation took effect to-day"

In the family of Mr.. Thomas G. Kersle-
ter of Milton, Pa, is a child whose expert
ence is striking verifcation of the value
of lactated food. It is best told in Mr..
Kersleter's own words: "Milk did not
agree with him, and he grew thin and
poor-almost skeleton. From the time
we commenced to give him lactated food
he gained rapidly in strength, and never
saw child grow faster than he did. He
is now six months old and compares ia
vorably with children of nine months. We
attribute his health to lactated food"
Summer, with it's fearful death-rate
among the children, is here. Yet, by the
use of Lactated Food, parents can give
their little ones the health. and strength
that will keep them well and happy when
cholera infantum is claiming its victims
by the thousands. Those who, knowing
of this pure food, allow their children to
waste away without its use are certainly
responsible.

About 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon an
unknown man aged about sixty years was
taken suddenly i'll on the steps Of Buffers

fused to give his name, but said he had
tramped from Brooklyn to this city and

attack when he was found. He pleaded
piteously for minister, as he felt that he

DANBURY, July 17.-Fire this morning
was discovered shortly after 4 o'clock in
Elliott's hat factory on Sheridan street, on
the outskirts of the town. By the time
the fremen reached the scene the bnilding
was almost entirely consumed. The loss
on the building and stock is 100000 The
factory has but recently been completed
and the firm had not really begun opera
tions, although they manufactured on a
small scale. If the shop had been in full
operation the loss on stock and buildings
would have reached $4,000. The origin
is unknown.

Stocks opened fairly steady, but intensely dull,

downward tendency in prices was not Of long du-
ration, absolute stagnation soon settling down
upon everything in the market. The changes in
the meantime were insignificant in all cases, but
after noon pressure upon North American was
brought to bear and toward O'Clock the taking
of $500, 900 gold for export being announced, the
best work of the bears was done. The announce

Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1891-07-16

Herls, having tempted us, made our
fall sure by volunteering to superin-
tend our degradation. When this point
was reached, one day, it was decided
that Sim and should meet Herk when
we went to drive up the cows. toward
the close of the following afternoon,
at which time we were to take our first
lesson in smoking. He promised gen
erously to supply the materials and
give us the benefit of his experience.
That night, in bed alone with my
sober senses, heartily wished that I
had refused to have any thing to do
with Herk and his temptation, and I
resolved to rebel upon the morrow, or
at least keep out of his reach and per-
suade Sim to do likewise.
Sim must have made the same noe
turnal resolve, for, when we met, next
day, he preached the subject of rebel
lion in just about the same cautious
fashion that had intended to open to
him. And this very coincidence de-
feated the good purposes of us both.
There seemed a vast difference between
a fellows declaring for the right of his
own choice and having it thrust upon
him by another fellow as if he was a
baby who didn't know anything for
