STUDENTS AND SPOONS.

An Incident Connected With the
 Christmas Bazar at the First Com
 gregational Church in Fair Haven.
 There are two weaknesses in the charac- ter of the Yale student which are particu- larly marked and strong. One of these is a weakness for the attractions of pretty girl and the other an itching desire to take spoons as souvenir remembrances of hap py events. The bazaar recently held at the First church in Fair Haven demonstrated The charms of the Fair Haven bellies were of so pleasing nature that Yale student patrons were numerous, but it was to the chocolate booth that they did mostly con gregate. The business done here was re- markable and the fair managers indulged in divers feelings of satisfaction as they saw the coins and bills come in with a rush. They were SO preoccupied by this perhaps that they did not notice their spoon supply was about as rapidly de- creasing, and of course the peculations were laid at the doors of the students. Rev. MT. Mitchell, the pastor, in one of his talks before his people recently. alluded facetiously to this fact, alleging that the doughty Yalensians might have the same skill in capturing spoons as faces. MT. Mitchell is Harvard graduate of not so many years ago. .
 The best part of it all is that for the past few days, to the young woman who was in charge of the booth, packagss of all sizes and description, by mail or messenger boy or left surrepi itiously, hays cosne, each containing : single spoon. The 1atest ac sconnt, t is belieyed shoWed that only one sposn MS yet tc be hsasd from

DIR. DAMON,
The Cause of Wonder,


 The grand work of healing the ills of human flesh goes merrily on by the new vitapathic process. Patients in all stages of disease are taken to Dr. Damon at 92s Chapel street, and right royalty are they repaid, for rarely indeed does one come away without being relieved of his or her suffering. ThisGs She same specialist who treated upward of 200 poor sufferers with out hope of fee or reward at the Atheneum for so many weeks. This he did that he might fully demonstrate to the people of New Haven his ability to cure after all other systems had failed
 One visit to this remarkable specialist will convince the most skeptical that he is well versed in the healing art. No invalid should fail to secure at least an interview with Dr. Damon if they would know what their chances were for relief or cure.

IT IS JANITOR KELLY.

Major w. A. Lincoln Withdraws From the Contest for Janitor of City Hall.
 The joint special committee of the com- mon council met last evening, and before it adjourned Alderman Terrence V. Kelly was appointed janitor of the city's portion of city hall.
 When the committee was called to order by Mayor Peck the following from Major Lincoln was read:
 NEW HAVEN, CONN.,,
 December 31, 1890. To Hon. H. F. Peck, mayor, and the mem bers of the janitorial committee:
 Gentlemen-For the last year have, to the best of my ability, filled the position of janitor for the city's portion of the city hall. Unusual circumstances in conneo- tien with that position have demanded an amount of time which could not well afford to take from my regular business. Although with reluctance, feel compelled to say that must begin the new year by devoting myself entirely to the affairs of the William A. Lincoln Building company, This say with full appreciation of many courtesies extended to me by the occupantl of the city hall and regret that in conse. quence of my withdrawal at this time an additional duty is imposed upon your com mittee. With thanks for the kindness you have shown me, remain
 Yours respectfully,
 w. A. LINCOLN. l The committee then made unanimous choice of Alderman Kelly for janitor. MT, Kelly is we'll known local politician and has been for some time a blacksmith at the l Holcomb carriage factory.
 l Major Lincoln stated last night to re- porter that his cole reason for withdraw. l ing from the contest was the want of time to attend to the duties of janitor. His other business cares called for his whole attention. At the last meeting of the conamittee Major Lincoln was appointed janitor by . vote of 4 to 3. The legality of the choice was questioned by the denocrats, but last nighfs action will put m end, 1t II sup- posed, to al controyersy over tho appoint. ment.
