While at an Entertainments.
A sudden death occurred last eve ming
in the Sterling opera house at Birming-
ham, while the theatre was packed with
an immense audience attending the
graduating exercises of the Birming-
ham High school. Shortly before 8
o'clock Mrs William B. Sherwood of
Zoar Bridge, was seized with fainting
spell. She was accompanied by her
daughter, Mrs Brockway of Shelton,
and when she fell over was removed to
the lobby. The woman was placed on
the stairs leading to the upper gallery,
and she lay there attracting. very little
attention outside of those attending her.
and the crowd passed her by going to
to the floor above. DIR Phillips was in the
audience and went out to attend her
and did everything possible to restore
consciousness, but to no result and the
woman died in about ten minutes.

on the baggage car and first passenger
coach were broken, and they were re-
placed by others at the depot.

clean out several places on East Main
street, yesterday, when he was arrested
and landed in the station house by
Officer King. James and John Lunny
appeared against him this morning.
He tried to get in to the barber shop in
Mr. Lunny's building, but was unsuc-
cessful. He then entered John Lunny'
saloon and was thrown out. He entered
the second time with a razor in his
hand, but the sight of a club which the
proprietor seized caused him to beat a
retreat. He created such a disturbance
on the street that over two hundred
people assembled to see the fun. Judge
Bradstreet fined Romer 81 and costs fol

MORTALITY RECORD.
Deaths and Funerals of People Well
Known in This City.
COMMUNICATED.

COMMUNICATED.
The death of John Killoughey calls
for more than a mere passing notice, for
he was man of sterling qualities,
which endeared him not only to his
family, but to large circle of friends
to whom his decease has come as a sud-
den shock, for which they were entirely
unprepared and one which it is hard to
realize as true. Can it be true that
John Is dead, was the question that
passed from one to another of his shop
mates on Tuesday, and the expression of
deep sympathy and sorrow depicted on
each countenance, told more plainly
than words the feeling of each heart.
John had been in the employ of the
Waterbury Buckle company for over
thirty years, and it can be truly said
that employers and employees alike, had
the same feeling of kindly respect and
regard for him. AS an employee he was
faithful and honest, as a shopmate he
was exceedingly pleasant and agreeable.
| The writer, after having been associated
with him so many years, will most
sincerely mourn him, and will greatly
| miss him, for he always had a pleasant
| word of greeting and fund of genuine
Irish wit, which often brought CLEAN
of sunshine. He never seemed to have
even a thought of malice. John was a
pure-minded man, in all his witty say
ings there was nothing gross or vulgar :;
one always felt better and brighter after
a moments talk with him. His sphere
was not an exalted one he simply did
his duty in the place appointed him, but
be did his work faithfully and well.
What richer legacy can a man leave to
his children than that of a life complete
in the sphere of its opportunity Before
| closing, wish to bear testimony to a
phase of his character which in fact
was the one characteristic which domi-
mated and moulded all his life. John
was christian, not a mere religionist
Although faithful to all the obligations
resting upon him in connection with his
church, he looked deeper than the form
and saw the spiritual import which the
form signifed. His religion was 70 him

faith. Who can doubt that he received
