>Oh, strike the Tyre" Thompson roared.
And into tales poetic scared,
OF wild adventures, weird and rare;
The snake toned down by grizzly bear,
The buffalocs that tossed and gOred.
The alligators at the ford
These hunters always hunt abroad,
At home they blow loud fanfare,
And strike the Tyre.
So Thompson told, and maids adored;
But men the stale old lies abhorred.
Each manly eye betrayed glare,
Each manly lip held back a swear.
They rose, and then with one accord
They struck the la.

An Evening Skating Party.


Having been participant in very en-
joyable skating party which matured
Wednesday evening of this week, am de-
sirous of penning few lines for your
newsy columns in remembrance of the
affair, trusting you will have space and
time to devote to it.
The aforesaid evening found the lake in
the ice kings domain and under the en-
bryotic Cynthia's rays, which were far
down. on the western horizon, and soon
disappeared. Had the lunar orb more age
the skating territory would have been
greatly benefited, but as this was not a
barrier to the evenings enjoyment the
affair passed away very pleasantly, as the
ty was made up of young ladies and gen
tlemen from the city and adjacent towns.
Two cars on the Whitney avenue line car
ried the skaters to the region Of Lake
Whitney, where the CONCEALED water was
of sufficient thickness to allow the runners
to glide over with safety and ease, though
not so smooth as at other times during the
skating season. However, the time passed
pleasantly along, no accident happening
except the loss of a number of rubbers be-
longing to the lady wearers in the mud
and an involuntary squat by lady
skater, who, after little dizziness
and star-seeing, assumed her proper
position and struck out again, none
the worse for the sudden interference of
her propulsion. At a seasonable hour the
party returned to the city, feeling satisfied
with the evenings indulgence and desiring
many merry returns of the same. Among
those present were Mr.. William Gilmore
of Waterbury, Mr.. J. Dunn of Ansonia,
Mr.. George Dunn of New Britain, Miss
Armstrong of Brooklyn, Misses Kate,
Josie and May Collins, Nellie Dolan Of
this city, and others who were too modest
to hArs thatx names b print, Z.

repair were that the entire roadbed of the
causeway from the upland to the bridge,
ITO rods in length and 20 feet in width,
should be raised "a inches, q stupendous
undertaking for that time, and involving
the handling of over 1900 cubic yards Of
earth.
None of the towns Ainched. The old
contracts are before the writer and did
space admit it would be instructive to
quote the names of these horny handed
old farmers who SO pledged themselves by
money and by labor.
Work was begun in the summer of 1871.
The commissioners were:
New Haven-James HiIlhouse esq.,, David At
East Haven-captain Stephen Smith, Captain
North Haven-Thomas Cooper esq, Captain
Joshua Barns, Edada Sanford.
Northford-Anson Cook, Ehhu Foote.
Durham-Eliphaz Parmalee.
Wallingford-Esq. Eliakim Hall, jr. o.
They gave themselves fifteen months to
complete this undertaking in, and at the
expiration of this period had it finished.
The roadbed was raised above the action OF
the tides, and there was probably never q
time before or since when it was in as good
condition, but the drain on its promoters
was almost ruinous.
The general assembly, sensible of this
burden, and seeing what frst-class high
| way had been made and that constantly
| increasing traffic was passing over it, gen
erously allowed toll gate to be erected al
the bridge end and appointed Joseph Pier
pont, Levi Ray and Joshua Barnes Of
North Haven and Isaac Foote of North
| ford commissioners to receive and disburst
the toll monies.

Tho limited Workers.
SHELDON B. THORPE.

The executive committee of the society
of United Workers desire to inform their
friends who are annual subscribers, that
the young ladies who collect the subscrip-
tons, are about to set forth upon their
rounds. It will be great accommoda-
ton, if subscribers will be prepared to
make their payments and thus relieve
the collectors of the necessity Of calling a
second time. The treasury of the society
is nearly empty and the committee feel
that they must make a special call upon
the benevolence of the charitable. The
work has been supported hitherto chiefly
by ladies-only a few gentlemen having
been regular contributors the society
is very DESTROYS to have the financial as
well as the moral support of the gentle
men of New Haven. The committee
therefore take this opportunity TO ask
most earnestly for subscriptions from
gentlemen as we'll as ladies, for the sup
port of the regular work of the society
viz: the care of the sick poor, giving
work to needy women and sustaining the
Boys club. The latter, while a very
valuable and successful work, is a grea
expense and it is upon the gifts of the
benevolent public that the society mus
depend to meet their running expenses
All subscriptions will be most gratefully
received and may be sent to Mrs. Mary
Rowland, treasurer, 148 College street

ORGANIZED CHARITIES.

Notes from the Annual Meeting Tues
day-Favorable Reports.
At the annual meeting of the Organized
Charities association held yesterday after
noon the interesting fact appeared that for
the first time in the history of the associa-
ton the reports showed that the wood
yard and laundry had earned enough to
clear the expenses of the same. In fact,
there was balance of $70.26 on the right
side Of the sheet for the year ending Feb
ruary 1.
The report of the treasurer, Charles A.
Sheldon, showed that during the year con-
tributions amounting to $3,069.22 were re-
ceived, besides 1924. 80 from the profits of
the charity ball, and $5,3161S for work
done at the associations building, max
ing total of SO, 926.63. The expenses for
the year were $8,922.11, leaving balance
of 1908. SO in the treasury.
The very efficient agent, Mr.. S. o. Pres
ton, said that during the year 2, 90S people
had been cared for, Of which number 457
had been aided by the association in pre-
vious years, while of the 2,451 new cases
only 500 were residents of this city. The
causes of distress in these cases were

| ton by husband 81, while 81 confessed
that idleness was the real cause of their
| need, and 81 admitted that their troubles
| were due to extravaganza or mismanage-
ment of the money they once possessed.
Every nationality except China and
Japan was represented Of the Irish
| there were ,047, American 1,1S6, English
| 1S1, German 146, Negroes 1876, Scotch Sc
and Swedish A.
During the year work was given to or
situations secured for ZOO persons; 314
we're given monetary relief, 80 were aided
to enter the almshouse, 10 the Home for
the Friendless, 81 were taken before the
city court and fined or sent to Jail, nine
| girls were sent to the Industrial school and
| two boys to the Reform school, and So
children were sent to the county home,
New Haven Orphan asylum, or ST. Francis
Orphan asylum.
| Lodgings were provided for 2, 143 men
and 415 women, and meals to 1876 men
and 1872 women. The cost of this enter
tainment was $411.29, of which 1851. 80
was worked out by the temporary guests
in the laundry or wood yard, where 1854
cords of wood were sawed and split.
| Agent Preston also reported that the
Penny Provident fund, established about
eleven months ago, had received in de-
posits and sales to sub-stations $134.94, on
which interest to the amount of 70 cents
had accumulated. The Withdrawals amount
| ed to $68. go, leaving a balance of $67 10
deposited in the New Haven Savings bank.
