Hall of Justice.

In the the police court to-day Orion
Curry, aged 10, was charged with
vagrancy. Complaint was made that
some person was sleeping in j. Cough
lan's barn on Baldwin street. Last
night the police went there and found
young Curry. This morning he said
that he had no home, his father and
mother being dead. He had worked for
Mr. Coughlan for a time. Judge Brad
street sent him to Jail for twenty days.
Edward Cleary was charged with
drunkenness and vagrancy. He was
found asleep in barn by Officer
Blakeley. He said his home was in
the Brooklyn district and that he had
strayed into the barn by mistake. He
was fined S. and costs for drunkenness
and found not guilty on the other
charge.
For the past week the residents of
Simonsville have been troubled and
rounds begging for food and money.
His appearance was described by one of
the women in the neighborhood to her
husband and last night a man answer
ing his description was caught and
| turned over to Officer John Sullivan.
| He gave his name as John McCabe. He
denied having begged any money OF
food. This morning several women
who had seen the vagrant failed to re-
cognize McCabe. Judge Bradstreet
fined him $40 and costs for drunkenness
and found him not guilty of vagrancy.
Michael Culliton was charged with as
sault on Patrick Burns. Culliton keeps
boarding house and Burns is one of his
boarders. Sunday afternoon the latter
went to the house intoxicated. He used
some very vile language and attempted
to strike Culliton. The latter seized a
ball pat and chasing Burns into the
front yard, struck him on the head,
making SCALP wound. DIR O'Hara at
tended the man and it required five
stitches to close the cut. Culliton did
not deny hitting Burns but claimed that
he had provocation. Judge Bradstreet
fined him $40 and costs. Anappeal was
| taken.

Mystery Surrounding the Death of a New
Haven Man.

maven NIdns
Concerning the death of Patrick
Leonard of New Haven, who was
burned to death in a shanty at West
ing to foul play in the origin of the fire
which ended his life. Leonard's rela-
tions with his family have been Of an
unpleasant nature for some years and it
is suspected that his son locked him in
the building that was later set on fire.
The origin of the fire has not been def
nately traced, but the medical examiner
has ordered an inquest and the matter
will be sifted to the bottom.
R. L. Roys of Meriden, who, while
standing on the step of Klock & Mix's
drug store last Fourth of July, was
deafened by the explosion of cannon
or cannon firecracker close to him
will probably never fully recover his
hearing.
At South Norwalk last evening an un-
known young man was struck by the
engine of the train leaving Bridgeport
at 6 o'clock. For time he lay stunned
by the track and it was thought he was
dangerously injured, if not killed. An
examination revealed that his right arm
| was broken.

On Monday while DIR G. w. Fitch OF
Bridgeport was engaged in removing
from the chest of aged Huntington
lady tumor three and one-half inches
long and two and one-quarter inches in
diameter, and just as a few more
strokes of the knife would have com
pleted the operation, the patient ceased
breathing and to all appearance was
dead. The doctor had the strongest
restoratives at hand and without losing
a moments time they were applied
Shortly after he was overjoyed to see
the patient rally. Color commenced to
appear in her face and her respiration
was resumed. AS soon as she had
rallied sufficiently the operation was
completed. Yesterday DIR Fitch said
''It was the most delicate case of surg.
cry 1 have undertaken in some time.
The patient was very old and through
her intense sufferings caused by the
tumor and the worriment of the opera
ton, was completely unnerved. Hel
ply steal condition made the operation 6
most dangerous one to perform.

The Cricket Match.

The long talked of cricket match
between teams representing San An
tonic and Boerne, took place yester-
day at the government post, permits
sion being kindly granted by General
Stanley to use the grounds.
The game was called at ii q, m.
sharp, with San Antonio at the bat.
The first innings finished San An
tonic So, Boerne 50, after which the
teams adjourned to Muth's pavilion,
where an excellent lunch was served.
accompanied by some choice musical
selections, rendered by the genial
professor.
When the game r~estarted it was
soon evident that the superior train
ing of the Boerne men vas going to
win the day, and SO it turned OUT, the
game finishing San Antonio 81 runs,
BOerne 90 runs and s wiCkets to go.
The principle points of the game, in
the opinion of the un-initiated, were
a magnificent catch by "Gummy,"
the San Antonio wicket keeper, he
almost picking the ball from the bat,
in a hit to leg. the bowling of Mills,
and two catches in the field by +.
craig.
The game Will be repeated at an
early date, when San Antonio hopes
to retrieve their lost laurels.
A number of ladies graced the game
with their presence.
The following gentlemen represent
ed San Antonio: G. Shovel, II. G.
Mitchell, T. ClarksOn, J. RIsden, e.
T. Craig, Z. G.. Hutchinson, E w.
Mills, w. L. Patterson, r. Corner, w.
Hamilton, J. S. Lang. We may add
in justice to the San Antonio team,
that they stepped on the field without
any previous practice together, while
the Boerne'men have been in harness
for several months, and have several
victories to their credit.
w. Hamilton, the celebrated catch
er of the San Antonio B b. nine, made
his debut on the cricket field Tues
day, playing w~icket-keeper for the
san AntonIOs, and he got there, too.

Robbery-HIs Mouth is Sealed.
Express Messenger ]. Earnest
Smith, who was in charge of Wells,
Fargo & Co.'s business on the South
ern Pacific train which was held up
by train robbers Wednesday morn
ing, arrived in this city this morning
and made his report to Superinten-
dent A. Christesen, of the Wells
Fargo company, about the occurrence.
His superintendent gave him posi-
tive orders not to be interviewed by
reporters or to say anything about
the affair, therefore a statement
coming from him first hand could not
be secured.
In conversation with him early this
morning, however, Mr.. Smith said
the company's loss was not greatly
over ST, 900. The robbers had masks
made of flour sacks over their heads,
with holes made for their eyes. They
blew open the car door with dy-
Mantle, and had a quantity on the
roof which they threatened to ex-
plode.
Mr.. Smith has sent in his resigna-
ton on account of the affair, but it
has not yet been acted on.
