New Haveners In the West.


Mr.. T. P. Merwin who, with his wife, re-
turned recently from their western trip,
being called back owing to the death of
Mrs. Merwin's mother, the late Mrs. Gaiue
Warner, spent quite number of days in
Chicago with Mr.. Merwin's son Gaius, who
is Chicago business man of note, in the
iron commission line, and with their
daughter, Miss Merwin, who resides with
her brother Gaius in Chicago. Mr.. and
Mrs. Merwin improved their fine oppor-
tunity to see and admire the worlds fair
buildings. Mr.. Merwin also went to Min
neapolis where he attended, as delegate,
the Triennial National CONGREGATION coun-
Gil. While in Minneapolis he met his old
friend and former New Haven townsman,
President Cyrus Northrop of Minnesota
university, who was moderator of the tri-
ennial council held three years ago. Pres
ident Northrop's university had two hun
dred students when he took hold of It
eight years ago. 1t now has 800 students,
and ts still growing and prospecting. Mr..
Merwin called on President Northrop at his
home, and went all over the Minnesota
university buildings. Mr.. Merwin also
met in Minneapolis Washington Yale, who,
9 great many years ago, was prominent
dry goods merchant on Chapel street, this
city at one time partner in the dry goods
business of our venerable and esteemed citi-
zen, A. @. Wilcox. Mr.. Yale is eighty five
years of age, and his eye is not yet dimmed
nor his natural force abated. Mr.. Merwin
also met in Minneapolis our two well
known townsmen. Messrs. James G. Eng
lish and Wallace B. Fem, who were en-
route west on their trip to the Pacific
coast. Mr.. English is accompanied by his
wife and Mr.. Fem by Mrs. Fem.

NOVEL ELECTION BETS.

One Arranged Between Two Falstaf-
fan Proport1cned Fair Haven Men
Two State Street Business Men
Arrange the other.
Two very novel election bets have been
one in the Eleventh ward. The fulfllment
of each of the bets will attract attention
when the time comes.
John Richal, foreman for the Quinnipiac
Brewing company, bet that Harrison
would be elected. Frank Shuck, who is
also employed by the Quinnipiac Brewing
company, took up the bet, and the follow
ing conditions were agreed upon: In the
event of Cleveland winning, Shuck will
have to wheel Richal in a wheelbarrow
along Ferry street from Grand avenue to
the Quinnipiac drawbridge. In case of
Harrison's election Richal will have to
push the barrow over the same route,
while Shuck takes his ease seated in 1t.
Both men are of Falstsfdan proportions,
each weighing over 300 pounds, and they
are among the jolliest of fellows.
The other bet has probably the most
unique and laughable conditions attached
to it that have ever been imposed.
Joseph Giloh, the well-known agent for
the Turtle Bay brewery on State street
| near the Forsyth laundry is a republican
| and Augustus Kiesels the sign painter is q
| democrat. At least Gilch thinks that Hsr-
rison will win and Kiesele thinks that
Cleveland will be president for the coming
| four years. Each was willing to back his
| opinion with something. These two men
met and agreed upon the following con.
| ditions for bet.
| If Cleveland is elected Gilch will have
to ride horse backwards from the corner
of Elm and State streets to the Basserma1
brewery and return. If Harrison is elected
Kiesele will have to take similar horse
back ride.
The forfeits have been posted and tn,
details all arranged, and the many friend
and acquaintance of all concerned will b.
on hand to witness the ful6llment of tn
conditions of both bsts.

SNEAK THIEVES AT WORK.

They Are Stealing Coats and Cloaks-
A New Scheme to Catch a Store
keeper.
Sneak thieves worked pretty extensively
in this city Saturday afternoon and even
ing, and as result complaints are being
received on all sides by the police authori-
ties. They stole several cloaks and over
coats from Railways in several parts of the
city, and besides this have worked worry
neat game on several storekeepers. Two
men entered store on State street about 4
o'clock Saturday afternoon and one of
them called for package of cigarettes and
presented So bill in payment. When the
change was given the man objected to the
small coins and threw back the package
of cigarettes, saying in very oontemptu-
Gus way, "Give me back the bill
and I'll go some place else." This
naturally made the storekeeper a little
huffy, and he threw back the 50 bill and
took back the change without glanoing at
1t. When he went to count his change
later he found his money dollar short.
This game was worked in several stores in
various sections of the city. The men are
described as fairly well dressed, one about
five feet nine inches in height, dark COM
plexioned, and the other is light complex
Toned, not quite as tall. This is as close
description a. can be given by any. It is
believed that all the thefts can be laid to
these men. ~, .-.......-
