The Employees of William Nicely & Co.
Are Fooled in their Attempt to go to
Faulkner's Island, but Are Not De-
prived of their Fun.
About 200 employees of William Nicely &
Go. left Belle dock at 1915 pm. yesterday
on the steamer Sunshine to go on an ex-
cursion to Faulkner's Island. On account
of the rough weather, however, they were
obliged to put in at Pawson park. Russo's
band was in attendance and furnished mu-
sic for dancing on the boat and in the pa
vilion on shore. After they landed they
amused themselves with dancing and sing
ing for q while and then went on board
the boat for dinner, which was served up
by Mr.. Pickett and all voted 1t most ex-
cellent repast. After dinner they returned
to the park, having in all about three
hours there. Ice cream and candy for the
ladies, and cigars for the lords of creation
were plenty. F..
AL were loud in their praises of Mr..
Neely's iberality in giving them such q
pleasant outing. Mr.. Nicely was there him
self, foregoing even attending the Charter
Oak races to go with his employees on this
trip. Colonel John G.. Healey's genial su-
perintendence of the affair as master of
ceremonies was of the best. Mr.. W. s.
Hackett was idefatigable1 in his efforts
TO entertain. George q. Kimberly and Mr..
McGran also did all in their power to make
things pleasant.
The boat returning left the park about
O'Clock, arriving at Belle dock at 7:2O. All
reported q most enjoyable time.

New Haven's Prominent Physcians.
DR.. Henry Pierpont of 264 York street,
one of the well-known prominent physi-
clans in this city, died last evening about
z O'Clock at his cottage at Savin Rock. He
had been very busy among his patients for
some time previous to his being taken Ill,

to take to his bed on account of severe
attack of Inflammation of the bowels, and
DR.. W. L. Bradley was called to attend
him. For week previous he had been
more or less confined to his bed and those
who know him say that the attack has been
coming on gradually all summer and that
his overworking aggravated the system and
brought on the sickness which resulted in
his death. .-a,... =. .
But nothing alarming was noted in his
condition until four days ago when he had
q severe hemorrhage from the bowels. he
had had slight hemorrhages before, but
this was much more severe and he has failed
rapidly ever since.
DR.. Pierpont was sixty one years of age
and was born in Litohfeld. He graduated
from the Yale medical scool in the class of
"a, and began the practice of his profess
sion in Naugatuck. He soon, however, re-
moved to this city where he has spent the
greater part of his active professional life.
He married a daughter of the late WHY'S
Warner, formerly for forty years treasurer
Of Yale college. He leaves to deeply
mourn his death three children, two
daughters and one son. He was mem
Dor OF Center church and Q respected men,
Der Of the Connecticut Medical society and
the New Haven Medical association. he
was brother Of Cornelius Pierpont, pres-
ident Of the Dixweu Avenue Horse Car

We took in the bridge opening
at Memphis last Thursday and if
it were possible would give to
our readers q word picture of
what we saw, but as that is impos-
sible you must be content without
it.
Work was begun on this bridge
Nov. Z. 1888, and its completion
is considered a triumph of mod
ern engineering skill. 1t is q
steel and iron truss bridge on the
cantilever principal. Its length
across the river proper is 2,GS2
feet. aud including approaches
three and one-ffth miles. BE-
sides The railroad tracks it has a
wagon track and footway. 1t is
calculated to carry 1000 pounds
ner lincal foot aud cost SO, 100000.
of course we saw the war ship
Concord, but was disappointed IN
its size, it being much smaller
than we had pictured it.

There isn't any picture prettier,
so says our piquant and spicy ST..
Louis exchange,-As You Like
It,-than d charming girl un-
der a parasol. The parasol is
such an adjunct of coquetry and
grace, and when properly manag-
ed, with the gentle toss back,
when it frames the head pictur-
esquely, or with swift or slow
movement, as the case demands,
when eyes can glance demurely
from beneath its silken or lace
protection, the effect is disas-
trous. Therefore the pretty girl
is never without "a parasol when
she can find an opportunity to
carry one.
