Mr.. ]. T. Dunn of this city takes con-
siderable pleasure behind the handsome
pair of blacks which he recently pur-
chased from Charles E. Cruttenden.
These horses have good action and are
very speedy but have no records. Good
Judges predict that the pair can trot very
much faster if properly trained. They
are northern horses, are six years old and
are well bred. The near side horse was
sired by Knox Boy, he by General Knox.
The other horse of the pair was
sired by the Morgan Blsckhawk stallion st.
Julien, he by Aristos, 2,274, that two
years ago was credited with eight repre-

SANDBAGGING AT CRAWFORD.

James Green Assaulted and Robbed
His -Four Assailants Recognized
and Arrested-One Bound Over to
the Superior Court Under $500
Bonds-The others to be Tried To-
Day.
Saturday night James Green, the keeper
of saloon and general store in Branford,
was sandbagged and robbed of 500. He
was knocked senseless just as he was pass
ing the Congregational church. The mon
ey was then secured by the robbers, who
turned and fled.
Just as the thieves were making their
escape Green began to regain conscious
ness. Although dazed, he recognized his
assailants as four young roughs whose
names were Massey, Jimmy Reynolds and
two brothers named Mike and James
White. AS soon as he had sufficiently re-
covered from the effects of the blow,
Green sought Deputy Sheriff Carney and
told him of the assault. Yesterday morn
ing Sheriff Carney found the four fellows
and placed them under arrest.
The assault Was deliberately planned, as
Green was known to have large sum of
money about his person Saturday night.
At trial before Justice link yesterday
morning Massey was bound over to the su-
derior court under $500 bonds and held in
default of bail.
The trial of the three others implicated
in the crime was set down for 5 o'clock
yesterday afternoon, but at that hour the
court room was so crowded that it was
deemed advisable not to try the case. but
to adjourn until this morning and hold the
trials in the town hall. It is probable that
all the miscreants will be bound over to
the next term of the superior court.

THE HORSE SHOE CRAB.

Excellent as an Article of Food.
Captain G. Fl. Townshend has received
the following letter which explains itself,
from the United States commission of fish
and fisheries:
United States Commission of Fish and
Fisheries, Marshall Mcdonald, Com
sioner.
WASHINGTON, D. G., Jan. %. 1899.
Captain Charles Hervey Townshend, New
Haven, Conn.,:
Dear Sir-While the matter is fresh in
my mind desire to express to you the
obligation feel for your kindness in CIV
ing me a practical illustration of the edi-
BILE qualities of tho horse shoe crab
Uimulus Polyphemns.)
I had previously heard that this species
is edible, but had no conception of its ex-
cellence for food purposes until I had the
privilege of eating it at your house on q
recent occasion.
It is altogether probable that if it were
generally known that the horse shoe crab
is SO rich and delicate in flavor, 1t might
become favorite among our people.
Yours, Etc.,

Continued Until Next Friday.

Hawley and wife for the murder of Mrs.

O'Clock before Judge Tomlinson. The
same counsels were present as on the day
the trial was begun, with the addition of

WIS added to the defense for Mrs. Hawley.
The attendance was considerably smaller
than on the first day.

| resumed at 1:30 this afternoon. After the
recess Mrs. E. G. White, the woman who
| lived in the same house with the late Mrs.
| Munson, was put on the stand and testi-
| fed that she heard Hawley's voice in the
| house during the evening, and that she
heard nothing during the evening to indi-
| cate quarrel between the two. Also that
she heard Mrs. Munson say, after the shots
were fired: 81 won't holler." Then she
heard the word "Down," followed by a
| blow and a woman's scream of "MurderI''
| Then came sec ond and third blow and
| more crying, and then all was still. She
| saw Hawley there at Z o'clock in the morn
| ing as we'll as about the same hour in the
evening.
On the cross-examination she said she
heard voice that sounded like Hawley' 8
voice after she left She heard it for ten
minutes. 1t could not have been Slie's.

WE'RE MARRIED IN NEW YORK.

Alpheus H. verr1ll and Kathryn L.
Mccarthy, Both of This City, are
Married in the Church OF the Holy
Cross, New York-The Grsom's
Parents objected to the Match.
The following notice, in the New York |
Herald of recent date, refers to the mar
rage of two young people of this city:
vERRILL-MoCARTHY- this city, January
the Rev. Charles McCready, Alpheus H. Yerrili
to Kathryn L. Mccarthy, both of New Haven,
Conn.
1t appears that the course of true love
did not run particularly smooth with the
two families connected with the young
people, which occasioned the trip to New
York city, where the young couple were
accompanied by Mr.. and Mrs. Mccarthy
and another daughter.
Mrs. Verrill, is the eldest daughter of
ex-City Auditor Edward Mccarthy; the
wholesale liquor dealer at SO Congress ave-
nue. She is about twenty-three years of
age, beautiful and accomplished. She was
educated at the Washington public school
on Howard avenue, studied at Hickeloga
convent in Montreal for two years, and
where she graduated. She was employed
up to Thursday last as teacher in room 2
in the Davenport avenue school.
Mr.. Verrill is 20 years old, and is the
son of Addison E. Verrill, professor of
zoology at Yale. He is an artist and lived
with his parents at Sc Whalley avenue.
The young people have been making love
| to each other for about a year. but it was
| not expected by the intimate friends of
| either that their acquaintance would 30
| soon result in union of hands and hearts.
Alpheus 81. Verrill, the groom, made the
following explanation of the case yestsr-
day morning at his room at the Tontine:
I must confess that there was objection
to the marriage upon the part of my par
ents principally because my wife is q
Catholic while they, were of the Protest
ant faith, and our marriage in New York
was simply to prevent any trouble and
comment that might arise by having the
ceremony. performed here. So far as am
concerned I am not bound by any denoai-
national ties, and thor, fore the fact of my
wifes being Catholic did not enter into
the question. I have never believed in
arranged marriages, and in taking the
step 1 have merely consulted my OWL
wishes. As a matter of fact, have dur
ing long period spent in South Americs
attended the Catholic church almost
wholly, as there are no other denomina
tons there, and naturally 1, as a Prot
estant, feel less strongly upon the subject
The fact that was Protestant in no way
inte1fered with my marriage. We visited
the Church of the Holy Cross in New Yorl
and explained matters to the pastor, Rev
Charles McCready, and he secured dis
pensation for US and performed the cere
mony. Since our return to New Haven VI
have been living at this hotel and will con
tinue to reside here until next Friday
when we leave for New York, and viii
embark on steamer for Costa RIGA, Cen
trail America, where we reside in the flu
ture. l have secured an official position
in the National museum and 1 expect t
reside there permanently provided the eli
mate agrees with my wife's health.

Entertainments.
HYPERION rHKATER.

The second lecture in course A of the
Stoddard lectures was delivered last even
to crowded house. The subject was,
"Mexico, that country of all countries
the most interesting to the student of pre-
historic America. The scenes by which
the lecture was illustrated brought back
the old Aztecs, those stirring days of Cor
tez' conquest and Montezuma's fall, with
pictures of that beautiful and semi tropical
country lying between the Rio Grande and
the city of Mexico. One seems to see
again that progressive and enterprising
people who dwelt so long ago in the lovely
valley of the chihuahua and patiently
awaited the coming of the "Fair God"
The illustrations are the best that can be
produced by the stereopticon, and with
Mr.. Stoddard's interesting delivery a most
instructive and interesting lecture is given.
The same lecture will be given Wednesday
evening, the 9th.
Rudolph Aronson's company will present
"Uncle Celestin," a comedy with music,
next Friday and Saturday evenings. 1t is
now approaching its thirty-f fifth perform
ance in Paris. The music is by Edmond
Audran, the author of the "Mascot" and
"Olivette," which insures that it will be
bright, tunefu1 and full of sparkle.
GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

the first performance of their engagement
last evening to crowded house. The COM
pany contains some of the leading specially
artists on the vaudeville stage, among
whom are Emerson, Cool, the sisters Coul-
son and many others of well known re-
pute. It is safe to be said that this is one
of the best variety shows on the road
The crowds which nightly flock to this
popular place Of amusement attest to the
peoples appreciation of the efforts of
Manager Bunnell to place high class of
attractions on the stage here. The COM
pany will be here this and tomorrow eve
nings and at a matinee tomorrow.

A large audience attended the dramatic
production Of Mr.. Gunter's famous novel,

presented with a magnificent bouquet.
The company is first-class ono in every
respect. -sr.s-
birds of a Feather" a powerful comedy
drama, will be the attraction Wednesday
and Thursday, the 9th and 28th. The
plot is strong, with thrilling sensational
scenes, while the fun is fast and furious.

MAKING THINGS READY.

Execution to Takc Place
Friday-The Death Watch Begun
Last Saturday-His Counsel Has
Two Ways of Getting a Stay, De-
claring Him Insane or by a Writ of
Errors.
L1rcHF1ELD, Jan. 25.-There now seems
to be no doubt that Alexander /Borjessen
will hang on Friday for the brutal murder
of his sweetheart, Mary Andersen. Prepa-
rations for the hanging have been nearly
all completed. The building in the rear of
the Jail has been completed and the high
board fence at the rear to keep out the
gaze of curious sightseers has been erected.
On top of this a large piece of canvas has
been stretched, twenty-five feet high. The
gallows have not yet been brought here
but are expected to arrive from New Ha-
ven to-day when they will at once be put
in position.
Saturday morning the death watch was
set and it will remain with him until he is
led forth to execution on the fatal morn
ing. Borjessen has spoken little about his
coming fate except to ask the guards, yes
terday afternoon, if hanging was quick
and painless death. Rev. DR.. Erickson,
pastor of Swedish church at Washing
ton, Conn, hiss spent great deal of time
| with the condemned man and is Installing
| into his mind, assisted by Rev. Mr.. Nc
Laughlin, some knowledgeof Christianity.
Judge J. 81. Mcmahon, counsel for Bor-
jessen, said to-day that he had nothing to
say about any effort which might be made
to save his clients neck, but that he prob
ably would have something new tonight
Several lawyers, when interviewed, said
that the condemned man'a counsel had
two ways of staying the execution. HI
may claim that Borjessen has become in
sane since his conviction, and the stat,
law provides that no man can be hanged
under such circumstances. The othel
alternative is to get writ of error, tn
hearing on which could not be heard unit
next May. It is unlikely, however, tina
any judge of the superior court would sigl
writ Of error at this late day. Still i
may be tried. Up to the present tim
Borjessen has displayed more courage thai
the Jail officials expected.

Not Necessarily Fatal.

A party of passengers accompanied by
her son then walked back a short distance
along the track in search of her. Abou,
