The Preachers Den"uncc BernhaTdt.
NoRwALK, Conn, March l7-Mmc.
Sarah Bernhard will have to walk over
the Norwalk pulpit to play Fedora in the
Broadway theatre in this city on March
81. She is getting any quantity of ad-
vertlsing from straightlaced Norwich
congregational preachers, and Manager
Noxon, OF the theatcr, wears a three ply
smile all the time. First Rev. DR..
Llellyn Pratt of the fashionable Broad
way Congregational church, gave the
French artist a sermon about two weeks
ago in which he said, though he did not
speak Bernhardt's name, that she was no
better than she should be, and it was ex-
traordinary that moral people would run
after such a woman. At his Thursday
evening meeting in the ancient Cougrega
tional church on the hill, the Rev. Dr..
Leonard Woolsey Bacon, who has fire.
quently upheld the old blue Sabbath laws
of Connecticut, gav Sarah's character a
mild rebuke.

FOR THE AGED AND 1NFIRM.

A POI ton of the Linthicum Estate Pur-
chased Site for tho Home.
Some time ago Mrs. Bessie j. Kibbey do
mated 1000 in cash for the purchase of
ground upon which to erect Home for the
Aged and lnfrm. The selection of the prop
erty was placed in the hands of three expert
zeal estate agents. They viewed many differ
ent locations which were offered for sale, but
could not find a satisfactory one. Last Sun
day they were shown over piece of property
containing $4,000 square feet and when the
examination was completed arrangements
for Its purchase were practically finished.
On Monday the money was deposited, and on
Tuesday the deed recorded. The property
selecte0 IS part of the Linthicum estate in
Georgetown, and fronts 100 feet on Linthicum
Place, running back to dep'h of 300 feet
The purchase was made through Acker t
Gadsby from w. a. Gordon. Upon this will
be built $4,000 building, to be known as
the Home for the Aged and InfirR.
The property chosen will make an excellent
location. 1t is situated on knoll from which
q commanding view Of the surrounding coun-
try can be obtained. The drainage is very
good and the facilities for obtaining water
the same as those in the city. The selection
is considered wise one.
The Linthicum estate is becoming q very
popular location. In the spring a subdivision
of a portion of it was made entitled s'Dent's
subdivision of the Linthicum estate" There
are sixteen lots in it, 50x175 feet. All of these
have been sold and upon each of them the
owners intend to build handsome homes. The
last two lots were purchased by Mr.. Thomas
Hyde, of Riggs Bank, and Mr. James E. De
Jestor. These sales were made through Acker
* Gaosby.

THE LOCAL STOCK MARKET.
The Transactions Still Limited, But the
Outlook is Improving.

The transactions Still Limited, Bub the
Outlook is Improving.
Although the transactions on the local
Stock Exchange continue to be confined to
comparatively few of the leading securities
the number and the aggregate Of sales are on
the increase. Last week there were thirty-five
separate sales, embracing sixteen different
securities.
Washington Gas stock continues to occupy
q leading position, los shares changing hands
at from 433 to 43I The closing bid was at
49,, the lowest offering, at the close, 43s.
The offerings of L. S. Electric Lighting
stock continue very meager. But shares
were sold last week 1t brought 155. The
closing bid was at 1474, ex 81 dividend, the of
fering at l5S.
The directors of the Belt Line Railroad at
the last monthly meeting came to the conclu-
sion that ii would bo to the best interest of
the road that the October dividend should not
be paid. The directors took the view, that as
considerable work on the road remains to be
done and as eventually large portion of the
bonds OF the company will have to be used to
provide Tor more rapid transit, 1t is best to
pay for the current improvements out of earn
ings and hold the unissued bonds in reserve
until a new motor shall have been adopted.
The Improvement in Washington Loan and
Trust stock still goes on, 10 shares selling at
95 and S5 shares at 96, closing bid 951 with
963 the lowest Offering. There is some in
quiry for Pneumatic Gun Carriage stock; 100
sold for 90 cents, 100 at 63, and 100 at SO.
Privately well-known operator who has
given this stock much attention offered to
take 500 shares at so cents.
The sales not specially mentioned above
were three shares Washington and Georgetown
Railroad at 2S7 and ten at 235; twenty Ameri-
can Security and Trust at 93 Of Washington

predictions about the weather, the
other about finances. The st. Jo-
seph Foster has been predicting
storm waves and warmer weather

the financial situation generally, but
says what the final outcome may be

of the Al per cent bonds have been
extended, and applications have been
made for more than two million
more. By this extension the decrease
of bank notes is prevented and the
circulation increased nearly S5,000,-
900. He says, while there is less
money In the national treasury than
ever before it is in a comfortable
condition, with more of it in the
hands of the people, but the present
talk of stringency all over the coun-
try doesn't indicate it. He says we

THEY CAN'T DO 1T.

The proposition of Millionaire
Stanford to import $4,000 negroes
TO California to supplant the
Chinese is the veriest "bosh" He
knows as well as anybody that the
moon-eyed native of the Celestial
Empire could grow rich where ne
groes all around hem would go max
ed and starve. The object, which
he seeks to hide with this kind of a
yarn, lies in the fact that negroes
can vote and Cinnamon cannot, and
$4,000 votes all one way might
change the face of the political sit
uation In California. When it comes
to voting the republican ticket and
routing out the democratic majority
tae negroes would perhaps come up
to Mr.. Stanford's ideal, but working
in competition with frugal, steady
working Chinaman with a small APP
petite, while he had to rest three
days of the week and eat three long
meals a day would be an inglorious
failure and it would be a long time
before he would ever drive out
Chinaman.

terms s'calf>sheep.n 1t is the off
spring of COW and was born about
SIX weeks ago. The right side of
the animal is that of perfectly
formed sheep with skin like that Of
a sheep covered with luxuriant
coat of wool which, when handled,
has the same oily feeling of the
wool from perfect sheep. The
legs and feet of the right side are
also those of a perfect sheep. The
left side of the animal is in every
respect the same as normal calf.
The skin being covered with thick
crop of COW hair, the head resem-
bles that of a sheep more than a
COW, with the characteristic ridge in
the forehead peculiar to the sheep.
The animal is SIX weeks old and the
size of a dog. MIR. Huffman will
