Brick Pomeroy's Atlantic an,

Brick Pomeroy's Atlantic and
Psclfic Tunnel Go. has removed
its headquarters from New York
to Denver. 1t has fine rooms in
the Mining Exchange building,
and it will have gorgeous Offices.
Bricks tunnel project goes on like
the brook that flows forever, no
matter what may be said about it,
or what it's local reputation may be.
1t is altogether possible that its
local reputation may not be entirely
just. At any rate there appears
to be a difference in opinion about
its merits among mining men who
profess to have investigated 1t.

In the January Great Divide,
Hon. ii. A. w. Tabor of Colorado,
relates the story of his life as a
miner, from his arrival In Cali
fornia gulch in 1860 to the dis
covery of the Little Pittsburg in
1878. For the first two years he
worked placer claims, and cleared
$4,000. After that he kept a
general merchandise store and
postofiice, but always had pros
pectors out whom he "grubstaked," "
though for many years they found
nothing for him. Finally, April
Is, 1878, he grubstaked August
Rische and George f. Hook, who
at once began to dig the ptufing
out of Fryer Hill. The whole
camp laughed derisively, for the
opinion had for years prevailed
that one might as we'll expect to
gather figs from thistles as TO find
mineral in Fryer Hill. But they
were getting three meals a day,
and they kept digging. AT a depth
of only 27 feet they struck corbi-
mates running 200 ounces of silver
to the ton--and IN that moment
was born the Leadville of history,
the greatest mining camp the world
has ever known. Tabor and
Rische bought Hooks one third
interest for $4,000 cash; in No
vember of the same year Tabor
and others formed a syndicate and
bt ught Rische ont for S262,500,
which was dirt cheap; and the
camp had in these few months
bv that strike. grown
to city OF 10000. And. BY the
way, the postofiice business had
grown so that Mr.. Tabor had to
hire more clerks than Uncle Sam
allowed him, a luxury which he
paid for out Of his own wad.

FIRES FROM LEAVES.

Policemen and Firemen Kept Busy
Brush Fires in the County.
The firemen and policemen are kept on
the alert by fires among the dead leaves.
Boys take advantage of the infamable piles
of leaves and keep either the policemen or
iremen in motion. Eugine No. was
called to put out fire in a lot at 1876
COTE street Saturday where pile of leaves
had been set afire. The fire had caught q
fence, and a barn near by was in danger
when the firemen were called. The timely
arrival of the firemen saved the barn.
There are several fires in the woods
around, probably caused by hunters,
tramps or foolish boys.
A few days ago some boys set fire to- a
pile of leaves and brush in the Annex near
the quarries of Conner Brothers. The fire
got good start and is now burning fierce
ly. 1t has consumed several acres of
valuable woodland. No effort has been
made to check it.
Many forest fires have been raging about
Waterbury, and from all parts Of the state
come similar reports.

An Exclamation.

Sufferers from nervous and chronic dis.
eases often wonder why their family ply
sioian cannot cure them. Yet it is only
what might be expected when it is con
sidered that the family doctor sees very
few such cases. He spends his time
riding about among his fever patients
1t is the physician who makes specially
of your particular disease to whom suffer
ers should apply. This is what makes
of go much value to the sick tho gener-
GUS offer of the eminent DR.. Greene of 81
w. 18th Street, New York, the great
specialist in curing all forms of nervous
and chronic diseases, to give consultation
aud advice free. This wellknown physi.
clan, the discoverer of the wonderful Dr.
Greene's nervura blood and nerve remedy,
uses only harmless vegetable remedies In
curing the sick. You who have failed tc
be cured by your family doctor, write i'm.
mediately to DR.. Greene a description Of
your case, or send for symptom blank te
fill out, and he will return you lette,
fully explaining your disease, giving
advice, ETC., free of charge. Do not hest
tate to write, for he has cured thousands
of cases like yours and will surely make
you well.

by Mr.Sherman the children of the Sunday
school read selections from the scriptures.
Miss Helen Conklin sang fine selection
entitled 'sThe Rose of Sharon" the choir
joining in the chorus. Judge Blyden-
burgh's address on the topic Liberty"
was an able and eloquent one and the large
and appreciative audience gave it their
closest attention. Rev. L. Fl. Squires read
selection appropriate to the subject from
Cowper's poems. After singing by the
choir and congregation and the benediction
by the pastor the meeting was brought to a
close.
1t is the purpose of the church to con-
tinue the peoples meetings during the fall

Have q Field Day - other Bush
ness.
A meeting of the delegates to the central
union of the T. A. and B. societies was held
at the Office of James P. Bree, on Chapel
street, last evening.
The much discussed question of a field
day was settled by fixing upon April 30,
1893, for such an occasion. John Doughan
OF st. Patrick's was elected secretary, Vice
Joseph Patten Of st. Patriok's resigned.
Frank Reilly of st. Dominic's was elected
treasurer, vice Thomas F. Clark of the St.
Aloysius resigned.
Thomas Kennedy, James P. Bree, John
Doughan, Thomas r. Flood, Patrick Kent,
Michael Callahan, John ]. Oates and James
J. Brennan were appointed committee to
make arrangements for the field day.
It Is quite probable that this event will
be grand success, as most of the societies
are heartily in favor of 1t.

PetrfIIO.

The stories to the effect that Angelo Pc
trillo, the murderer who is to be hanged
November IA, may be reprieved until the
legislature meets are groundless. 1t was
thought that Petrillo should be granted a
reprieve in view of the fact that the legis-
lature had not met and he had no chance
to apply to it as last resort. In 1889,
after the famous Swift murder case, the
legislature, by special act, made the board
of pardons the last resort in murder cases.
The board sat last June, so that Petrillo
has had the full advantage of the law. No
steps were taken to procure stay of pro-
ceedings or pardon at that time, because
there was nothing to ask for such a stay
upon. Petrillo will therefore hang on
November IA, if he does not kill himself.

HOW THE VOTE STOOD.

Umnortaut M ee ting at the Court Street
Temple-It Decides 81 to 1 Not to
Re-elect Mr.. Kleeberg to the Pastor
ate OF the Church.
Yesterday was day of notable interest
at the Court Street temple. 1t was the
day for the annual church meeting, snd
the pending issue whether or not Rabbi
Kleeberg should be retained as pastor
drew together one of the largest church
meetings of the kind ever held at the
church. The interest was absorbing. 1t
was felt that test vote and one fraught
with much importance to the church was
impending. The meeting was private and
great secresy as to the result was main
tanned after the meeting was over. The
result, however, was a vote not to retain
Rev. DR.. Kleeberg. The vote stood "a
against retaining the doctor and 81 for
continuing him as pastor. The result,
therefore, signifies the close of DR.. Klee-
berg's passionate at the termination of the
church year, July next, and the choice
of successor at no distant day, probably
| in April next. For several years past the
|
ject of retaining DR.. Kleeberg, and last
year this was the burning issue strongly
defined at the annual meeting. This year
both sides were out in force and the result
| is as stated.
| 1t is learned that the result of yester-
days voting disposes of the idea of any
| pending division of the church, the form
| ing of new congregation and the erection
of new Hebrew temple. Such an ides
has been preached and discussed.
DR.. Kleeberg will retire with the bes
wishes Of sll his congregation for hi
future. He has been pastor of the Court
Street temple for thirteen years and formed
many ties in this city and many established
and staunch friendships. He has been al
ardent worker, devoted to his duties,
Jealous scholar and active. Many of tn,
more progressive element in the oongre
cation are ready for a change which Il
much talked of in Hebrew church circle
all over the country nowadays, viz. tn
abandonment of Saturday services and tn
holding of them instead on Sunday.

together, and on the basis Of the masters
words, eye ought also to love one an
other" Such love as he referred to means |
cooperation as we'll as affection.
This common interest goes deeper with |
us than mere church planting and help
among us all shall be made free and equal,
aud strong and useful. "The stature of
man" we desire for ourselves and for all
We can reach.
For this we have one inheritance from
the past. Even the hard puritan temper
is good for our tools, while the electrical
genius and skill of this age is better for
their use.
| Dr. Gunsauless recently said that "We
are trustees of Gods love and bounty"
add truth also. Saving and helping truth!
These we are to pass on from hand to
hand, through all our churches, and our
environment. What we can do individu-
ally we are so to do. What we can better
do together we are to do together, that 1t
may all be done and well done.
This gathering is unique enough to pro-
woke suggestion. Why not federation
of New Haven Congregationalists for the
development of all that we have in COM
mon, and for the doing of all We can find
to do that we ought to do? And why not,
then, federation of all New Haven evan
4
common interests, opinions and purposes,
for the freer and better doing of our rec
ognized duty? And why not, then, last
and best of all, federation of all New
Haven Christians on the broad and firm
basis of our common salvation and spiritual
life, to show the world that Christian unity
and fellowship are not the force they have
to take possession of the whole of our
masters mighty inheritance, long his by
right, but long withheld from him chiefly
because his disciples have been too
busy with their squabbles to attend
to his matters. If an impetus
toward real Christian unity shall
come from this meeting it will have
served the purpose for which it was called
and yet longer and better purpose, which
may God grant.

offering for the Congregational union was
! taken, and handsome sum was realized
for this most worthy object.

A Special Train Run from This City
to the Funeral Yesterday.
A very large circle of friends and &C.
quaintances will lament the death of Con-
duotor Frederick Lockwood of the Consoli-
dated road. His long service on the Con-
solidated, covering between thirty and

was placed on the next train west bound,
but expired before reaching his home in
New Rochelle. He was born in Green

ried children.

1866, and four years later became a con-
ductor. He was very popular official
and genial man. The funeral services of
Mr.. Lockwood took place yesterday after
noon at the late residence OF deceased In
New Rochelle. By the courtesy of Vice
President Tuttle special train was run to
New Rochelle from this city for the &C.
commodation of friends who wished to
attend. Nearly every man connected with
the Consolidated railroad who could pos
sibly attend was present. The train con-
sisted of three cars, all of which were
nearly full. All who went down passed
through the house and took q last look at
the deceased.
The floral offerings were so profuse that
only the face could be SEEN. Every piece
was very beautiful in design and execu-
ton and the room seemed completely filled
with these beautiful offerings of friend
ship. The special train left at 3:O1 yes
terday afternoon. 1t was in charge of
Conductor Frank Hermance. It took two
hours in going each way.
