 There was another sleighing carnival on Whalley avenue yesterday afternoon. AL though the sleighing was not remarkably good, many horsemen were out making the most of it on Whalley avenue The sleighing was fairly good on other broad streets of the city, but far more people were at the former thoroughfare than on the other avenues.

Honesty, whose record is | 2:22, has been entered in seventeen races and has won 8 part of every race in which he has contested. He has taken either first or second money in majority of the races. Trixy is quite fast and has won many road contests. Her owner, George Ives of North Haven, has refused $1,70C for her.

Counterfeit TWos.

The cleverest counterfeit known to the officers of the United States secret ser vice, Washington dispatch says, is now circulating throughout the country. It is a $2 silver note. The quality of the paper, the ink and the engraving are all excellent in their way, whae the minor matter of detail are absolutely perfect.
 The original notes were commercials of issue ssB." After careful study their identity was established by the formation of the letter ''J' in Conrad N. Jordan's name in the lower right hand corner. The loop of the "J'' was brought down with considerable amplitude into the scroll work which constitutes the border and in which respect it differed slightly from the genuine. Within a short time what was apparently new and equally clever two dollar counterfeit made it's appearance. It bore the stamp of issue e'C."
 The shrewd, secret service men soon discovered that the note was not now, but that it was stricken from the issue 'sB' plate, and that the letter "Js had been so changed as to conform entirely to the genuine. This made it more danger ous, but the erasure can be seen if one studies the ssC' issue carefully. The wide sweep of the letter "Jn in MT. Jordan's name could not be wholly eradicated with ont injuring the border and thus exciting suspicion.

New Cattle Disease-Birds Seeking the
 Cfties-A Tobacco.Ohewing Horse.
 E: H. Hyde, chairman of the commits sion on diseases of domestic animals, has been to Monroe, Conn.,, at summons of the town authorities, to examine new and peculiar disease of worms in the lungs, which was discovered by New York in- spector of animals through a post-mortem examination of diseased animals, supposed to have been introduced by calves brought thither last fall.
 The only contagion feared is by the ani- nal coughing them up and depositing them on the ground. Scientific examination proves these parasites to be remarkably tenacious of life,. even living through frost, and are gathered by cattle while feeding.
 George Olmstead, the feed dealer in An sonia, owns horse that has only one bad habit, and that is habit it has learned from men. It chews tobacco with an appetite and relish that is not exceeded in genu- l inc Connecticut Yankee. Franklin Pearce i (not the dead president) taught the horse | to chew when he was MT. Olmstead's team ! ster in Danbury. There were a pair of l horses then and Pearce taught them both l to chew. The one in Shelton now seems to crave tobacco. for he never sees person pull out paper of the weed without show ing that he wants chew. MT. Olmstead also has cat that came from Danbury. It's bob-tailed cat, but what it lacks in tail it makes' up in body. It weighs 164 l pounds and answers to the name of "Pie dy." MT. Olmstead says anyone coming to his place after grain can see his horse chew tobacco by simply making the re- quest.
 Great snows and frigid weather in the north have driven thousands of northern birds into Connecticut, and there isn'1 food enough lying about loose in the state to support them. The big Arctic snowy owl has immigrated in great mum bers, and scores of them have been sho by local hunters. Every winter the crows of the northern New England states come, south and spends the winter in Connecti cut, Rhode Island, Long Island and New Jersey. They seldom go farther south
 The crows even in Massachusetts migrat'
 as soon as cold weather sets in. I'm
 snows of the old Bay state are too deep fo
 them Immense focks of crows are see,
 daily in Connecticut. In one foc]
 which a hunter saw near Norwich on
 morning recently there were more tha,
 2,000 birds.

 Around Again as We'll as Usual.
 The many friends of Deacon Merrill Loomis of the Calvary Baptist church will be pleased to learn that he is steadily inn proving in health and, it is believed, will eventually recover from the effects of the serious injuries sustained several weeks ago by being caught in blaming machine at Halstead, Harmount & Co., sawmill on Water street. It is now expected that he will be able to be out again in a few weeks unless something unforeseen should occur in the meantime. He is at present able to move around from one room to another. Besides the severe shock which he sus- tained several of his ribs were fractured, and his escape from death was almost miraculous.

The Opening Strong-Gains Scored fin Almost Everything Marked Strength fin Sugar Refinertes.

 Railroad bonds were less active, the sales reaching $2, ,197 ,OOO. but they were strong and most of the final changes are in the direction of higher prices. The actives were again Atchison incomes with S256, 900, and Northern Pacific fives with $153,OOO.
 Stocks opened stronger and further gains were scored in almost everything, but the operations of the bears kept them at feverish points and to a large extent unsettled. Louis vile and Nashville had spurt of activity and strength in the early trading but was followed later by Pacific Mail, which rose on the vote yes terday in the house on the shipping bill Sugar Refineries also displayed marked strength, which was found to be due to the covering of large short line in the stock: Jersey Central made a sharp upward spurt in the later dealings but lost a portion of the improvement. The afternoon showed little animation, but the best prices were reached be- fore 2 o'clock, and while some reaction was seen from the highest points, the close was quiet and firmer.

The boys mother cried to those near by to put stop to the brutal work. Titus stepped up to inter fere when both men turned on him, and, Hayden whipping out sharp steel instrument of some kind, cut him over the left ear. Titus still bears scar four inches long. He was very positive in his identification of Hayden. Hayden lives at Hill and Silver streets. His defense was mis- an attendant.at the picnic, who was named Ed ward Leroy, dressed much similar to himself. He saw Leroy strike at Titus with a small penknife.
