Stole Flowers from a Cemetery.

Ladovico Cianciulli, swarthy son of Italy, was out for "mash" yesterday. He was rigged out in Sunday best," and hoped to captivate some dark-eyed Italian lassie. He thought that 8 buttonhole bouquet would add to his personal appear ance, and accordingly tried to get one from the Grand avenue cemetery. The sexton, however, saw him take flower and com plained to Officer Gates, who arrested poor Ciancinlli. t-.~.--r

YALE LAUNCH DAMAGED.


 Tho Hull Badly Burned Yesterday
 Morning-Loss Estimated at One
 Thousand Dollars.
 The Yale launch lying at anchor in the Quinnipiao river above the drawbridge was on fire yesterday and was badly dam aged. Only prompt efforts of two men saved the valuable vessel from total de- struction.
 The fire was discovered by the watchman at the keg shop on East Pearl street, the steamer lying at anchor in the river oppo- site the shop. The watohman ran to the house of John s. Sanford, 2d, 54 East Pearl street, supposing it to be the home of George Dadman, the captain of the launch. But he went to the right place, for Sanford belongs to Hook and Ladder No. 3, and is an able fireman. MT. Sanford and the watchman put off in a rowboat as soon as possible and just in time, for any delay would have resulted in the destruction of the boat. The flames were burning brightly amidships, and as the craft was approached the fire was pret- ty hot. But the two men managed to get near enough to throw water on the flames
 
 ened their hold. Several minutes were required, however, completely extinguish the fire. Meanwhile an alarm had been turned in at box 73 and steamer prompt ly responded, but when the iremen arr we'd the fire was nearly out. Had the fire proved too stubborn the two men would have lowed the launch ashore so the engine could have thrown water on her.
 The Yale had been used in the afternoon in coaching the Varsity crew, and after the practice was anchored as usual. Cap tain Dadman was on board at 9 p. m. He had suspicion that he smelled smoke, but careful examination revealed no fire He then gave the boat thorough wetting down to make doubly sure. It is believed the fire caught the woodwork around the boiler and had been slumbering seven or eight hours before it broke out.
 The launch is pretty well burned out in the nidship section for distance of six or eight feet The top is burned and the flames ate nearly to the waters edge, burn ing out ceiling. planking and even the ribs. Small holes were made below the wassp ps os 1h 1Hs hs ths hsns ~asr was and it was necessary to pump the craft yesterday to keep it free. The loss is estimated at from $70O to $1,OO0. If the boiler is taken out, as it will probably have to be, the cost of repairs will be con siderably increased. The boat will be lowed over to..Thatcher's yard to-day, and repairs will be pushed ahead. It was thought yesterday that the old launch now at New York could be put in commission at once, but an attempt will be made to get the damaged craft in order within a few days. The fire occurred at a very bad time, when the crew was getting in readi- ness for the regatta. .-..- .
 Much credit is due to the two men who went out in the boat and extinguished the flame, for their prompt action savsd valuable little steamer, nearly new, from being destroyed.

 The Hyperion last night was crowded to it's utmost at an early hour. The stage was decorated with the smblems of the various Grand Army posts and the Naval Veterans and the Sons of Veterans.
 The music was of the finest order After an overture by Mallon's orchestra, Rev. Father Higgins made a prayer. On account of the recent illness of Comrade Brandt, who was to have made the open Ing address, Comrade Schlein presided and welcomed the assemblage.
 Mme. Oertel entered amid applause and sang an aria from Rossini. At the close sine was warmly applauded and presented with beautiful bouquet and aR ostrich feather fan with ivory handle. Mme. Oertel has sung at Memorial day exercises for many years, always refusing any com pensation because her husband was 8 soldier, and the chairman of the commit tee on entertainment, MT. J. F. Branni- gan, and the committee were of the opinion due Mime. Oertel. For an encore Mme. Oertel sang the Marseillaise. Two Grena- diers was sung in very pleasing manner by F. Woehlert.

 MIR. sIMoNDs' ADDRESS,
 The oration, a masterly effort, was de- livered by the Hon. William F. Simonds. commissioner of pensions, Washington, D. c. In the course of his remarks he made the following interesting observa- tions on Connecticut's services in the war of the rebellion: The quota of Connecticut in the civil War was A, ,797 enlistments, but we furnished 55 1864. Of these, 43, ,199 were in regimental organizations and fitted for the examination to which have sub- jected them. Two or three years since onr adjutant general issued very con- plete catalogue of the volunteer forces of Connecticut in the civil war. Among other things, he sought to ascertain and briefly state the whole military record of each volunteer, including his plural enlist separate table of these plural enlist ments in this catalogue, but have examined each one of the 43, 199, as they are set down, taking about two weeks of time for the work, and have found that 5,803 of these were plural enlistments. These plural enlistments were 13 40 per cent. of the whole number, and it is 8 reasonable assumption that what was true of Connecticut troops in this regard was true of the whole body of the Union army. It plural enlistments was somewhat larger than this calculation indicates, for as our adlutant-g general had to find these out by personal inquiry, there are, of course. some that he must have missed, but that error cannot be large enough to materially affect the result. Now, let us apply this

A Potato and Rheum atism.

There is a business man in this city,

scarlet flannel for "A stiff neck and various
other things. But one specimen which
would puzzle even Agassiz himself is a
little black stone which a hammer could
not dent,
One short year ago this was a good
sized healthy potato, which was put in

In the international exhibition of 1891 a
specimen of iron paper was shown. This
led to some competition among ironmasters
as to the thinness to which cold iron could
be rolled. One maker produced a sheet of
paper so thin that l,S00 layers of it piled
upon one another measured only one inch
In thickness. The fneness of the iron foil
referred to may be understood when it is
remembered that 1900 sheets of the thin
nest tissue paper arranged in the same
manner measure a fraction more than one
inch in thickness.
The irou paper was perfectly smooth and
easy to write upon, but when held up to
the light it was porous. We are not aware
of any practical use to which iron paper
could be put, for, owing to its liability to
rust, it would be far inferior to the paper
that we are accustomed to.-Papermaker.
