MISSING "BILL" EMMONS.
An Old Man of Unsound Mind Mad
the Victim Of a Practical Joke.

An Old Man of UnsOund Mind Made
the Victim Of Practical Joke.
"BilP' Emmons of Litchfield, poor
and harmless old man of unsound mind,
has lately been made the victim of a
joke that is causing the perpetrators
some little anxiety. For the past few
weeks some of the village wits have
been working upon his disordered brain,
making him believe that Governor
Buckley had extended an invitation to
him to visit the capitol and address an
assembly of 300 ladies on the cause of
woman's rights. The old man was in
weighed into the telephone Office one day
last week and at the other end of the
wire in one of the basement stores, the
part of the governor was played by
local celebrity. "BilP' received the
message in high glee, saying that when
the ladies were concerned he could not
refuse. He was then told that a num-
Der of men did not want him to go, and
that he must get away without their
knowing it. The old man accordingly
walked all the way from his home to
Watertown, where he took the train for
Waterbury. No trace of him whatever
has since been found. The town
authorities have been notified.

WORLD Of SPORTS.

Jim O'Rourke, will again frisk in left
field for the New York ball club next
year. Jim named his terms to the
management some time ago. They
were considerably in advance of what he
has ever before received, but that he is
considered worthy of his hire is evil
denced by the fact that on Wednesday
he received a telegram accepting his
terms. Yesterday he received a con-
tract which he will sign and forward
within day or two. Jim thinks the
league players who are jumping from
that dignificd and responsible organiza-
ton to the American association are
making the mistake of their lives.
First Baseman Taylor and Shortstop
Jennings, late of the Louisville Ameri-
can association club, will play with the
rejuvenated New Yorks next year, de-
spite the fact that they have both
signed contracts with the Louisville
club. In word, these two young men
have deliberately jumped their contracts
with the association,

NAUGATUCK, Nov 28.-The death of
Willard Hopkins last evening removes
another of Naugatuck's most esteemed
citizens. The deceased was born in this
town 81 years ago and with the excep-
ton of some fifteen years has always
resided here, being for many years en-
gagged at the Naugatuck Malleable
works, retiring from the same some few
years since. Owing to the poor health
of Mrs Hopkins they made Florida their
home during the cold months. Mr.
Hopkins had an attack of pneumonia
some two months ago, which left his
lungs in very bad state and he has
fingered along until last night. The de-
ceased leaves a widow, son and an
adopted daughter, besides a number of
brothers and sisters to mourn his loss.
The funeral will take place on Tuesday.
The annual forty hours devotion at
st Francis church begins tomorrow
evening.

Thomas E. Shea's Company.
Thomas E. Shea's repertoire company
will play at the opera house six nights
next week at popular prices. Monday
night Escaped From Sing Sing" will be
the attraction. The Philadelphia Press
says: A packed house greeted the great
sensational play of Escaped from Sing
Sing at the National and the audience
went away immensely delighted. Its
name would suggest blood and thunder,
but it has an exceedingly interesting
plot which holds and interests the most
intelligent. The chances for great dia-
lect and character acting were fully &C
cepted by Shea in the six various dis
guises. The singing and dancing of the
Dutchman, the Irish servant girl and
the Eng ish pickpocket were enthus-
iastically encored, and all the comedy
went with hurrah.

1.-THE County Fair"

BOSTON, Nov 28.-Judge Dewey in
the superior court, has issued an injuuc-
ton against actor Neil Burgess to pre-
vent him from interfering with Charles
B. Jefferson in the production of the
cities of New England. The plaintiff
alleges that on April 81, 1891 he made a
contract with Burgess, by which he
Jefferson was given permission to pre-
sent the County Fair in any town or
city in the United States except New
York city or Boston. The plaintiff says
that he has expended $4,000 equipping
and organizing two companies and
claims that Burgess has interfered with
the production in Worcester and SPRING
field.

ALDERMAN RIFLE RESERVATIONS.
Lieutenants Ryan and Broderick Leave
the Order.


Paymaster P. D. Ryan with the rank
of first lieutenant, and Signal Officer
Patrick Broderick, also with the rank of
first lieutenant, both of Hartford, have
resigned from the Hibernian Rifles, and
thereby hangs tale.
The resignation of these two promi-
nent officers has caused considerable ex-
element among the rifles and their
friends and while the true facts in the
case are difficult to get at, owing to the
reticence of the interested parties, it is
stated on the most reliable authority
that their designations were asked for
by Colonel William Donoghue, COM
mander of the rifles of this state, and
that the trouble partly arose from the
election of P. D. Ryan as chief marshal
of the parade last week in honor of
Bishop Mcmahon.
Colonel Donoghue refuses to state
why he demanded the designations;
Lieutenant Ryan does not wish to
speak, and Lieutenant Broderick is not
communicative.

Stray Leaves From a Reporters Note
Book.
The popular idea that newspaper men |
travel on their shape, and pay for none |
of the good things here below, is Wong.
The press invariably pays one hundred
cents on the dollar-if not more. 1t is
enough to drive an ordinary scribe to
drink to be continually charged
with being deadhead. 1 overheard
fellow who possesses no more brains
than catfish fire off a witticism in the
opera house the other evening, at the
expense of a newspaper man who sat
across the aisle from him. OF course
his theme was deadhead tickets. The
fact is the newspapers pay for their
tickets. The pasteboards may not be
the same color as those sold to the
general public, but they are paid for
just the same, and nobody knows
this better than the theatre manager
who understands the value of adver-a
Using.
A Waterbury man had a talk with
Patrick Flanagan, who is under SEN
tence of death, at the Jail in New Ha-
ven, yesterday afternoon. Flanagan
talked cheerfully despite the fact that
he is suffering from a fatal disease.
His voice is very weak. He says that
| kind to him.
Anyone having occasion to travel
over the New England road nowadays
can not but notice the immense amount
of freight handled by the company. 1
happened to be on a train that was tied
up between Bristol and Forestville the
other day and learned how it was pos
sible for four trains to pass each other
on single track and a short siding,
| without accident. The west bound pas
| senger train stopped mile east of the
| Bristol station near siding. delay
| of ten minutes occurred after which two
long freight trains from the west rolled
down the siding and out upon the main
track. The west bound passenger train
then took the siding and the freights
backed after it, clearing the main track
for an east bound passenger train, which
| was patiently waiting to leave the yard.
The changes killed good half hour, but
the trick was successfully accomplished.
There is great risk involved in this
kind of railroading, however, and it is
to be hoped that the long promised
double track between Waterbury and
New Britain will soon be reality. 1t
would pay.
The Connecticut Catholic in it's issue
to-day, prints the announcement that
Mrs Alexander Troup of New Haven
has formally renowned the Protestant
religion and become a believer in
Catholicism. Mrs Troup was educated
in Catholic convent, and although
since her graduation she has leaned
toward Catholicism, she renamed be-
lever in the Protestant church. Some
time ago Mrs Troup decided to become a
member of the Catholic church and she
made her intentions known to Rev
Father Bray of st Johns (R. c. church
who advised her in the matter. Since
that time Mrs Troup has been receiving
instructions from this priest, perpara
: tory to entering the church. The ser
vices of receiving her into the church
will be held in a short time, but th<
date has not yet been announced.
