HIBERNIAN NUISANCE,

Voted to Abolish That Branch of the
 Order in Connecticut.
 It has been decided by the state board or A. 0: Il. to abolish the insurance branch of the order in this state as if does not receive sufficient support. yhirty-five thousand dollars have been paid out since the insurance was started four years ago, and the number of those taking out policies has gradually dimin- ished until with last year only three assessments were made. Two years ago at the convention in Waterbury a reso- lution was passed by a small majority making the taking of insurance compul- sory. State Delegate Murphy soon found, however, that compulsory insur- ance would hurt the order numerically as we'll as in other ways.
 The great trouble lies in the fact that great many members of the A. o. H. are also members of the Knights of Columbus, in which insur- ance is compulsory.

JOHN F. WALSH'S DEATH.

Found Lying in Bath Room in
 HOIOhan's Block.
 John F. Walsh was found dead in a bath room in Holohan's block last even- ing between 8 and 9 o'clock. He had worked during the day at Blake 6 Lambs shop on Meadow street. He went home about 4:30 and started to take bath. D. J. Brennan went to the bath room about 6 o'clock, but could not get in. He thought he heard a slight moan, but thought that MT Walsh did not want to let him in. Later, Mrs Eurell, who rents the rooms, began to feel uneasy and sent for MT Holohan and asked him to force the door, which he did in company with R. c. Forbes. MT Walsh was found in half sitting posture as if taken with sudden pain, and when Mir Holohan took hold of his arm he was quite warm, although few moments after the door of the bath room was opened he grew quite cold and it could be easily seen that he was dead. Medical Examiner Axtelle was called and gave permission to have the body removed to Mrs w. F. Dillon's morgue. The deceased was about 45 years of age, and prominent member Hancock, A. O. F. of A., and Washing ton conclave, K. S. F. He leaves a brother, Thomas Walsh of Naugatuck,
 Medical Examiner Axtelle deemed an inquest unnecessary, although he could not determine the exact cause of death. The deceased had suffered much from rheumatism for a year past. The fune- ral will take place to the Immaculate Conception church at 3 o'clock to-mor. row afternoon. The body has been re. moved to Mrs Thomas Lannon's, No 1C Adams street, from which place the funeral will be held.

Carter on Connecticut,

Brooks. the Washington correspond ent of the New Haven Register, writes: Chairman Carter said to-day that the party would make a vigorous fight for Connecticut. Vigor with MT Carter means "boodle" and the democrats of the nutmeg" state can rest assured that they will have to bestir themselves in order to give Connecticut's votes in the electoral college to Cleveland. William c. Case, the we'll known re- publican of Granby, Hartford and New Haven, is at the Shoreham and was one of Chairman Carter's callers last even- ing. MT Case is quite hopeful of Con- necticut and it was after he had talked to Mir Carter that the latter spoke so aggressively in regard to republican success in Connecticut.

Dead Fish in the Pennington.

Something is killing off large numbers of fish in the Pennington river, and there IS a loud call for an investigation. Hundreds of dead suckers, bullheads, cells and other fish are found on the banks of the river below Unionville, and several bushels of them have been taken up at the PIatner 6 Porter mill rack, which indicates that the cause of the trouble is above that village. The suckers seem to be dying of faster than any other kind of fish, and the nor tality has been going on two or three weeks.

Praying for Mercy.

CHICAGO, June 2.-In many parts of the
United States the colored element, respond
ing to call recently issued from st. Louis,
observed a day as one of fasting and
praying, with the view of staying the alleged
tide of murder and lynching of colored peo-
pie in the south.
In this city there were services in the morn
ing from 6 to 8 o'clock in Quinn chapel,
which was crowded to the sidewalk. Addi-
6onal services were also held at the same
place In the afternoon from 2 to o'clock.
In the afternoon several members of the
Womens Christian Temperance uoion par
ticipated. At night mass meetings were held,
at which resolutions denouncing the treat
ment of the colored people IN the south were
submitted. At the mornings services special
prayers were offered for the protection of the
colored race, and some of the speakers urged
in their addresses that it was necessary to in
Auence public sentiment against negro lynch
ings in the south, and that if protection
against mob violence was not afforded the
time might come when the race would be
driven to the necessity of doing something
more than pray.
