WORLD OF SPORTS.

In the opinion of many the New York
club got the best of it when it ex-
changed Buckley and Glasscock for
Boyle and Fuller.
The Louisville club management is
the laughing stock of base ball circles at
it's refusal to accept Chicago's offer OF
Pfeffer and Wilmot for Canavan and
Brown. Louisville would get the best
end of the trade.
Pitcher Lovett has apparently deter.
mined to retire from base ball, or else he
is trying big bluff act on Manager
Ward.
President Hart of the Chicago clut
says he does not want Browning. II
will be Pfeffer and Wilmot for Brown
and Canavan or nothing will be done
Pfeffer will not be released.

Spring Dress Fabrics.

How. the seasons crowd each
other! 1t seems but yesterday
that we advertised Autumn
and Winter Dress Goods, and
now our new spring lines of
Imported and Domestic Dress
Fabrics clamor for recognition.
We gladly introduce them
to the people of Waterbury,
for we are proud of our mag
nifcent stock. For general
excellence it is ahead of any
previous offering, and includes
many exquisite novelties that
cannot be found elsewhere.
The various makes and weaves
of Bedford Cords will probably
command first attention with
serges for second choice.

INSURANCE STATISTICS.
Annual Report OF Commissioner Fyle
Issued.

Issued.
Insurance Commissioner Fyler issued
his annual report on fire insurance
yesterday-the first of such reports vet
issued by any state this year. The fire
insurance business done in Connecticut
during the year was profitable, the total
losses being $793, 272 against 500, 3O4 in
1890. But through the country the year
1891 proved very disastrous. One hun
dred and nine companies reporting to
the Connecticut commissioners show
500, 1884 ,016 in losses throughout the
country against $50, 096, O70 in 1890.
Their net surplus has been reduced
about $3.150,O0O. The net profits in
1890 were $11, 100, 152 and in 1891 only
$642, 724, and but for the rise in value of
their assets there would have been loss
of nearly $1,700, 600. The report says:
Connecticut companies earned about
two thirds of the dividends they paid
companies of other states earned less
than one-half and those from foreign
$50 900.

Hlseorac Chnxlesfom nn Seen BY Northern
Eyes.
CHARLESTON, s. c., Feb 90. Charles
ton has many attractions. At first
sight one does not like the place. Its
buildings are old and some of them are
sadly out of repair, but their historical
associations make them interesting.
Last Sunday Z heard for the frat time
the chimes or old st Michael's, and the
story of the burning brand on its steeple
was wildly recalled to me.
Charlestonians point with interest to
their many old buildings. The earth
quake some years since is yividly re-
called. There is shardly building in
the city which does not show some
marks of the CONFUSION. In the ceme-
/ teries can be seen evidences of the great
power of the earthquake. The Magno-
| liza cemetery is visited daily by strangers
| from all parts of tho country, and,
without much doubt, it is the most
beautiful city of the dead in the United
States. / never witnessed any park
laid out in such elegance. 1t is simply
| wonderful. In this cemetery a plot is
enclosed where 900 sinall slabs appro
II priately inscribed are erected to the
memory of the confederate Charleston
soldiers who died in the late war,
Il Another interesting feature is an OAK
tree over one hundred years old. II
would require too much space to de
scribe the many beauties of the place
the lakes, palmettos, flowers and monu
ments. A remarkable freak of the
earthquake is witnessed. here. Large
monuments, many tons in weight, hav'
been turned at right angles ON thei
bases, but were not broken or thrown
} down. They have not been disturbed
SINCE.
As yet the weather has not been yer,
warm. 1t is changeable. To day, TO
instance, it is raining, very warn
rain. Tomorrow it may be coll
enough for an overcoat.

Providence.

Providence.
Miss Annie L. Tennian, formerly of
this city, and Joseph E. McWeeney
were married in the church of the
Assumption, Providence, at o'clock
Wednesday morning. The ceremony
was performed by the Rev j. G..
Tennian, brother of the bride, after
which a solemn high mass was cele-
brated, at which twelve priests assisted.
The bride was attired in white launs-
down and wore a bouquet of orange
blossoms. Miss Nora L. Carroll of this
city was bridesmaid. Her costume was
of tan coloreu Jamestown. John j.
McWeeney, a brother of the groom,
acted as best man. At the conclusion
of the ceremony there was a reception
at the parochial residence and a sumptu-
Gus breakfast was partaken of. The
couple were the recipients of numerous
congratulations and handsome presents.
After a wedding tour Mr. and Mrs
McWeeney will take up their residence
in Providence, on Waldo street.

WHAT 1T COST.
Mrs Pearsal Had Big Bill to Pay Fol
Legal Advice,

One of the biggest law bills paid by
any individual in this state was that
recently paid by Mrs Laura E. Pearsall,
who was the defendant in a suit OF
alienation of affections brought by Mrs
Sarah NJ. Camp. This suit and the one
brought by Mrs Camp against her hus-
band for divorce are well remembered
as being the most scnndalous that have
developed in the courts for some years
past. Mrs Pearsall paid $4,000 in
settlement of all claims against herself
and Mr. Camp, and the lawyers fees
were nearly the same amount, making
the total bill $50, 1000. The lawyers for
the defense were Kellogg & Kellogg,
Cole, Kendrick and D. F. Webster, OF
Waterbury, and Cole of Hartford.

BRIDGEPORT, Feb GA senation was
created in, this city, yesterday after
noon, by the announcement that the
young and handsome wife of ex-Alder-
man w. B. Bostwick, a prominent
democratic politician and wealthy resi-
dent of this city, had attempted suicide.
She took morphine AMI when found
was unconscious. 1t is thought her life
will be saved. Mrs Bostwick is Bost-
wick's SECOND wife. He was divorced
from his first wife. Domestic troubles
are said to be the cause.

No Pin Holes In the Nc
KlnIey Bill.
KelIY'S Advice to the Democrats

Let the tariff alone because you can &C
complish nothing, and fruitless agitation
will disgust the country. Muzzle the
families and the cranks who want to revo-
lutionize the currency, for a financial
panic will not help you in the election
this year. Attend to business practically
such as making appropriation for the
Waterbury post Office and such other
needed public improvements with not too
much expenditure of time in craftsmanship,
and the country will then have less fear of
another democratic administration. Raise
no disturbance about persons in the PEN
sion bureau, the census bureau and var
ious other branches of public service. As
for investigation, very good; let the light
shine, but it mag be remembered that
when MrsSpringer's committee investi-
gated the electoral fraud of 1877, it found
a great deal more than it wanted. and
when Mr. Rosecrans took off the roof of
the treasury, the supposed discrepancy of
two cents in thirty years, did not help
him much; and when the leading grocers
of Waterbury tried to advance the price
of eggs to 35c per doz, and Kelly ham
mered them down to 22c and they stayed
there, was the time Kelly came out on
top.

TROUBLE OF FOUR MAGICIANS.

Professor Anderson, his party of
four sleight-of-hand male and female
performers and their baggage and
paraphernalia failed to get away yes
terday on tie steamer China for
Yokohama. Expressman Mullaly
arrived on the dock with a wagon
load of boxed mysteries about an
hour before the steamer sailed, but
the magician failed to appear until
the sailing hour of 3 p. m. He
wanted to put his things on board
the steamer bat they were refused.
None of the party had any tickets
for the trip, and it looked very much
as if they were taking French leave,
as they resented inquiries from re-
porters regarding their movements.
The boxed mysteries were stored in
warehouse near the Pacific Mail
docks. +, Chronicle.

JAPANESE IMMIGRANTS.

Thirty-two japanese immigrants
arrived yesterday on the sugar
vessel Irmgard from Honolulu.
Speaking uf this Collector Phelps re-
GREETED greatly that the local authori-
ties are powerless TO stop The whole
sale importation of Japanese labor
which is being carried on at present.
There are now about 250 Japanese
passengers from the Gaelic and Chi
ma in quarantine at Angel Island.
They will be landed, in all probable
ity, on this side of the bay within a
few days, and, although the authori.
ties are quite certain that these men
are coming as contract laborers, no
proof can be found that such is the
case.
A few months ago a young and
very shrewd japanese, who had re-
sided at Biggs in Colusa County,
came to this city and made minute
enquiries into the immigration laws
and how they operate. AS soon as
he had obtained all possible informa-
ton on the subject he left for Japan,
and il is now suspected that it is he
who instructs his countrymen how
they can avoid coming in conflict
with the United States laws upor
landing here, and then ships them in
numbers to San Francisco.

to he in the employ of fruit-raiser'

While the trial trip of the new
yacht yesterday was satisfactory to
her owners, the trip was in no way
test of her sailing qualities. She
has, perhaps. some advantages over
the older yachts in the matter of any
improvements that have been intro
duced in yacht building since the
construction of the Hawaii and Hell
enc. Whether her lead keel added
to her fastness Is a question, but it
is understood that the owners of the
Helene will have lead keel cast i'm
mediately and placed on their yacht.
The owners of the Helene contend
that she outsailed the new yacht in
running on the wind and the wind
quarlering. In the start the three
boats were almost side by side and in
passing the spar buoy there was not
boat-length between them. When
the new yacht turned at Waikiki the
Helene was leading hundred yards
after having made one tack in the
meantime, so that on the re urn the
Helene was that much behind. The
race was practically won in the chan
mel, as the Helene is too long in stays
for short tacks. 49,,
