Tire Reef of the Casting Room Dis
covered on Fire at an Early Hour
This q IOrniDg-A Second Alarm
Sounde d-The Loss Will Amount to
About 1850.
An alarI of fire at 1:15 this morning
from pri' rate box 514, located at Win
chester's asrmory, which was soon followed
by q seco nd alarm aroused considerable
exoiteme Mt in the central part of the city,
and employees Of the shop could be seen
I hurrying to tho scene from every direc-
ton.
About O'Clock Charles Merwin, one of
| the cupola above the casting room. he
tried to put it out with line of hose, but
without avail, and then rung in the alarm
The fire department hastened to the ar
mory. but upon their arrival found the
gates and approaches fastened. They quick
" beat these down with axes and began to
fight the fro that was by this time blaz-
ing up fi,srcely from the roof Of the build
necessary and it was not until after
O'Clock that the fire was extinguished.
The fire is supposed to have originated
from one of the large furnaces in the cast
ing room, a spark from which ignited 9
wooden shed OF one side of the room and
the flames thus started spread quickly te
the cupola above. The damage will be in
| the main to tine machinery. The
sides of the furnaces may have
to be torn down and rebuilt. The
cupola is entirely destroyed and the roo
is considerably damaged. The loss will
probably reach $1,000, though later inves
legations may make the figures larger
There were many crucibles IN the casting
room that will be largely damaged BY
| water.
While the casting room is coNsiderabl.
| damaged by both fire and water, it Is ex
peeted that the repairs in this department
| will be made 80 that work can be resumed
by Monday morning.

Daniel Sabeps company will produce the
American comedy drama "The Old, Old
Story" at the Hyperion theater Monday
evening, September 10. It is society
comedy drama with strong situations
pathos- with bright and
witty comedy, treating, as the title sug-
gests, of ''The Old, Old Story"-love,
speculation, poverty, human interest,
human feelings and passions. 1t is q
purely American play.
The cycling comedy, "Cupid's Chariot"
in which a realistic bicycle race is intro
duced in the second act, was presented at
the Hyperion last evening. The racing
scene was quite novelty. It is after the
idea of the race in the County Fair" The
scene is a good one; very much like the
real thing. The play itself is mediocre.
The songs and dances which abound were
clever. Incidental to the second act Pro-
lessor Barber gives q very clever exhibit
ton of fancy and trick bicycle riding. The
whirlwind dance by Miss Evans was an
other feature which was loudly spplauded.
The piece will be again presented this
evening.
NEW HAVEN OPERA HOUSE.
To-day closes the successful engagement

The new musical comedy entitled 1.-THE
Kid" with some twenty fun makers, sing
ing and dancing people, will open at this
house for three days on Monday. The ele-
CANT costumes and scenery are all carried
by the company.

From the NOrmannIa.

A letter received at the National Trades
mems bank yesterday from President
George A. Butler of tho bank from the
the deep indignation of the cabin pas
sanoers at being kept i,rriannad tho
boat with cases of sickness on board
Even the strongest men among them began
to show that they felt the intense strain
they are under, and all are deeply longing
to get away from the ship. Our tele-
graphic dispatches this morning in
dictate that the Stonington will re-
lieve the Normannia of its pas sengers to-
day.
J. h. Hawley of Bridgeport wrote home
yesterday to that city in the course of
lengthy epistle: we are really isolated
from the world, being guarded by two po-
We have had much excitement and have
been in truly dangerous position, but
thank God the danger is about over. In
fact can truthfully say that there is not
one case of sickness on the ship. We
amuse ourselves playing cards, singing and
playing games of all kind not excepting
baseball.
'Inspector Byrnes and the health board
/ were here to-day and after a consultation
with doctors decided to let US off in five
days provided there are no more cases of
| sickness. How is the grand old rep ublican
party getting along in Bridgeport"
| RETURNED FROM NEW YORK LAST NIGHT.
The condition of the quarantined tray
elers in New York bay is fully as pitiable
| as has been described. Last evening
Judge S. A. York and N. q. Osborn, ed
itor of the Register, returned from New
York, where they went to investigate the
matter. They stated that they had found
affairs about as reported, but it was ex-
pected that within few hours the condi-
tons would be materially changed for the
| better.
To-day the steamer Stonington of the
Stonington line will be put into service
and the cabin passengers of the various
steamships now in quarantine will be
transferred to her. Among the parsengers
who will thus be transferred are S. A,
York, jr., and George A. Butler, president
of the Tradesmen's National bank, and
family, all of this city. Cabin passengers
of the various steamers, who are thus to
be transferred to the Stonington, will be
kept in quarantine for at least ten days
yet, after which they will probably be lib
Grated.
PASSENGERS APPEAL FOR RELIEF,
A committee representing the first and
second cabin passengers of the steamship
Normannia sent in an appeal yesterday to
Governor Flower for immediate relief from
their present unenviable condition. The
appeal is signed by Senator ]. R. Nc
Pherson and seven others.

New Britain Herald (dem. I'VE think
the republicans have done the wisest thing
possible in putting General Merwin at the
head of their ticket. He is the strongest
candidate they have. The democrats will
now have nothing to do but take parallel
action and renominate their old ticket.
All talk of new one is nonsense.
Derby Transcript-The republican con-
vention did what was expected Wednesday
in nominating Samuel E. Merwin for
governor. No one can doubt tho wisdom
of the choice. He not only is near to the
heart of every republican in the state, but
is respected for his integrity by his demo-
cratic opponents.

Dwight Tuttle of East Haven and Rev.
s. J. Bryant of West Haven are out for

RACES THAT WE'RE NOT RACES.


Farcical Gambolings of Trotters-The
Judges Decided That One Heat Was
Fraudulent-The Closing Day.
The card for the closing day at the
Derby driving park yesterday was slim
and the attendance was proportionately at
tended. The day was cool and the track
good, but the races were ludiorous. The
entries for the first race, the $40 class,
were Epim, Golden John and d. S. NJ.
Epim trotted. two good heats, but the others
were struggling along in the rear, al
ternately trotting and running. AS there
were only three horses in the race Epim's
driver walked her down the stretch to pre-
vent the other two from being distanced.
The judges let the farce go on for two
heats and then gave Epim the race and de-
clared the other two distanced.
The next race had smacking of interest
about it, especially in the third heat,
when the judges suspeoting fraud de-
clared "no-heat." In the first heat Ger
man Girl, after keeping the starting back
for some time, was started while on rum
Although distancsd she was permitted to
enter the next heat because of
her poor start. In the third heat Johnny

in the last quarter. On the turn at the
stretch Stone, the driver of Johnny Knott,
to avoid being forced to the outer part of
the track, pulled in between Archie B. and
Shipman, and being in pocket in this
way came in third. The judges, thinking
that Stones driving was an indication Of
fraud, declared a non-heat This caused
considerable excitement, tho hackers of the
two horses-and Johnny Knott and Archie
B. were nearly equal as favorites-con-
demning or approving the decision. Stone
aud the owner of the horse both claimed
that they had bet heavily on their horse
and showed their checks, but the judge
thought that the public ought not to be
cheated by what he thought was a clear
evidence of fraud.
The result of the last heat WAS the same

honest driving. The summaries are:

the above subject refers to his previous re-
port on the crowded condition of the high
school building. He then adds:
The deserved popularity of the school as
indicated by the constantly increasing at
tendance, the rapid growth of the city in
population and its marked advance in
material prosperity, confederation of pub
lie spirit and of future progress, all con-
spire to make more imperative than ever
before the demand for more room and
better facilities for high school instruction.
The utter inadequacy of the present high
school building was next treated of, Super
intendent Curtis saying:
Crowded as it is far beyond its capacity,
lacking as it does proper means for heat
ing and ventilation, disgracefully deficient
in toilet and closet arrangements, decided
ly insufficient in rooms for ordinary reci-
tation purposes. exasperatingly moon
venient In its narrow Railways, preventing
the free and expeditions movement of the
Glasses; with the poorest and most meagre
accommodations for laboratory and sci
ence work; with no place whatever for
library, reading room or geological cabi-
nets; unprovided with even the essential
requisites for good work, and entirely
wanting in many of the modern and i'm
proved appliances which add to the COM
fort of the pupils, and which greatly i'm
prove the efficiency of every department;
the building should be condemned as posi-
lively unfit for the accommodation Of so
large a number of students.
The report continues: The school board
stands face to face with public duty in this
matter aud must place itself in the van of
public sentiment In the case. They have
not only to provide for present exigences

GOING DOWN THE HILL.

Old Age Creeping On shows Itself in Lack
Lustre Eyes and Trembling Hands-Many
Who Are Old In Years Are Vigorous and
HeAithy-HOw Such n Condition May He
Encompassed by All.
How many elderly men and women we see who
plainly show they are "going down the hill"
The trembling hand, the uncertain STEP the lack of
brightness In the eye, the shrunken features all In.
dictate that life Is not at high tide that the strength
and vital forces are not what they once were, and
in fact that they are going down the hill This, Of
course, is to be expected, for when one reaches
later years physical troubles are sure to come, but
how many elderly people we see are healthy, happy
and comparatively vigorous They always seem
cheerful, bright, contented. Why should not all be
equally fortunate: II certainly L. possible Every
elderly man and woman needs TO gently assist
nature, all the while needs to take some pure slim
ulant regularly. Every doctor In the land admits
this, and Its common sense must be manifest TO ALL
1t should not be understood, however, that any
ordinary stimulant would be recommended. II
must be something pure, powerful, heaith.givtng
and strength-mparting. Such stimulant can be
found only in Duffy's Pure Malt whiskey. 1t is the
only medicinal whiskey in the market its wonder
full popularity is due entirely to its power and what
It has accomplished Any elderly man or woman
through Its use may certainly preserve the health
and may reasonably expect to prolong the life. Do
not be Induced however to try any inferior article
OF any which the druggist or grocer may seek to
put In Its place. There is nothing which can &C
complish the same object
