THE BIG EXCURSION TODAY.

The Veteran Soldiers, With Their
Friends, Visit New York, Bay
Ridge and Coney Island.
The Admiral Foote post excursion to-
day will be an event in the history of the
order in this city. It will be patronized
largely by the representative people of
New Haven-merchsnts, politicians and
professionals. Hundreds will go who have
never been to Coney Island and are
anxious to visit this famous resort. Hun
dreds4will go to enjoy the sail and have
days outing. Many others will go along
simply to spend the day with the veteran
soldiers, the men who fought our battles
and who are very likely to fight them over
again when they assemble on festive occa-
sions. Probably large proportion of the
excursionists will be those who seek to aid
the post in a financial way and know of
no better opportunity than this. The Elm
City is booked to leave Belle dock at 8 a.
m, and to return home about II in the
evening, when 1t is arranged for horse cars

Isn't that so?

fine and as thick as a board.
Handsome blankets, with
blue, pink, red and gold bor-

MOVE TO-DAY.

It is Expected That Engine House
No. 2 Will be Vacated Tonight
Petitions In Circulation Calling
for a Special Meeting OF the Board
Of Aldermen to Provide Temporary
Quarters.
All day yesterday and far into the night
q gang of sixteen men were busily en-
gagged in trying to arrange matters SO that
the edict of the board of fire commits
sioners passed Monday evening ordering
No. 90 engine house on Artisan street to
be vacated at once, 1t having been declared
absolutely unsafe by the commission on
public buildings, could be carried out.
Notwithstanding the fact that the men
worked like beavers it was absolutely i'm
possible to get matters into such shape as
to allow the companies to remove yester-
day and accordingly the men spent last
night in the old building It is expected,
however, that by tonight the new stalls
and additional drainage necessary in rs
house will be completed SO that it will be
possible to move q portion of the men and
apparatus to that house.
In speaking af the matter last evening
Chief Kennedy stated that he had been
obliged to order the men to remain at No.
2's house last evening, as accommodations
had not yet been prepared for them at No.
rs house, owing to the shortness of the
time since the building had been ordered
vacated. He was extremely sorry, he said,
to DO obliged to jeopardize the lives of
nineteen men and about $12, 900 worth of
city property, consisting of engines,
trucks, etc., by allowing them to remain
| in the building even the portion of day
The report of the commission on buildings
was not received by the board until Satur-
day evening and that legal meet
Monday evening, at which the engine house
was ordered vacated. He stated that he
| expected to have the truck and engine,
with the men attached to them, removed
| to-day and would, if possible, have all the
men out and stationed at No. rs house to-
night.
The detail at work at No. rs house, get
| ting it in condition, is composed of three
| men from No. 1, three from No. 2, two
| No. Z, all under the supervision of Chief
| Kennedy. 1t is expected that tonight the
| nineteen men of No. 2's house will sleep in
the telegraph room of No. rs house, which
has been fitted up as dormitory for their
accommodation.
| There is at the present time on the fool
of No. 2's house over fifteen tons dead
weight, consisting of six horses weighing
| !, 300 pounds each, truck weighing $500
pounds, a steamer 1880 pounds, hose car
rage $500 pounds and light wagon fol-
the use of the fire marshal. The truck viii
be removed today and all the other appa
ratus by tomorrow night.

SECOND DAYS
CONCESSIONS.

It's poor economy to buy
something you don't need just
because it happens to be cheap
price-wise.
Whether a thing is cheap or
not depends largely on how
much you want it.
Of course there are many
things here that you'll want a
little later on, if not just at
present. At these concession
prices it will pay you to get
| them now and lay them away.
There are other things you
won't want at all. Poor policy
to buy them, no matter how
low they're marked.

1T WAS A PITCHERS BATTLE
In Which There Was Little Interest-Man
chesters, 8; Portlands, L.

Yesterdays game was a pitchers bat
tie from start to finish and Wheeler had
the best of it. Though Wheeler was hit
a trifle the hardest he was invincible
when a hit was needed, while Tobin
gave five bases on balls, two resulting in
runs, and he was hit when hit was
needed.
The game was devoid of excitement or
interest throughout. The home team
played listless sort of game and as they
do that so seldom it was very noticeable
and in marked contrast to the game of
the day before. The team always play
that way when Tobin pitches and, like
the audience, seem to lack confidence in
his ability. Clymer made a beautiful
running catch, and Farrell couple of
phenomenal assists at second. The
score:
