 The police commissioners met in execu- tive session for nearly two hours last even- ing discussing the question of Edward Furtman's application for position on the police force. The application was finally, after long discussion, tabled.
 Some time ago Furtman filed an applica- tion and was duly examined by the board of police surgeons. When the surgeons made their report three of them, Drs. Peck, Cahin and Townsend certified that the applicant had symptoms of consump- tion. To this opinion Dr. L. J. Gaynor, the fourth member of the police surgeons, dissented, and stated that after most rigid examination he had failed to discover any traces of pulmonary troubles, and that Furtman was in every way fit candl' date for 6ppOlntmenG. Ino po1lco coiuuls' sioners, however, decided to accept the majority report and returned the applica' tion to MT. Furtman.
 The case, however, did not end here Furtman again submitted to special ex animation by Dr. Gaynor, and also con suited several specialists, all of whom con firmed the report made by Dr. Gaynor Last evening at the meeting of the com missioners the reports from these special ists were read. Among these were Dr | Egbert LeFeore of the New York Colleg' of Physicians and Surgeons, and one of thu most noted specialists in diseases of thu | lungs in the country; Drs. Francis Baco1 and E. L.

 AN INTERESTING DISCOVERY. An old Well Found in Front of War
 ner Hall, Supposed to Date Back to
 Puritan Times.
 While the workmen were digging yester- day for the cellar of the new building which is to be erected by MT. Warner in front of Warner hall for an extension of the Warner hall building, they came upon, ten feet below the surface, an ancient well which is thought to date back to the time of the Puritans. It is on the site of the old Roger Sherman house, which was one of the oldest in New Haven and which was pulled down in 1860. The Messrs. White and Horace Day were consulted, but none remembered having heard of such a we'll. It is about fifteen feet deep and is built of East Haven red sandstone very neatly laid, and is in an excellent state of preservation. It is one of the most inter esting discoveries that has recently been made in this city, as it is rare that such a relic of Puritan times is found.

Professor Helm of Zurich says that
the most agreeable death is by falling.
He has talked with good many peo-
pie who have escaped death by falling
by a hairs breath only, and reports
that those who have experienced such
accidents suffer no pain and no ter
ror.
The National Emancipation Monu-
ment Association of Springfield, ILL.,,
organized in 1889, has raised $4,000
toward erecting monument to COM
memorate the freedom of the slaves.
There is a singular superstition in
Iowa, Illinois and Missouri, accord
ing to which any person who hears a
whippoorwill's call in daytime will
die before the end of the year.
Miss Francis f. Willard states in
an article on "Woman's Cause is
Mans" that there are now 10000
girls now studying in colleges, and
that in the United States alone $3,-
900, 200 women earn their own living.
DIR. f. J. Masters of San Francisco
thinks the right way to deal with the
opium problem is to remove prepared
opium from the tariff list, declare it
contraband and confiscate it wherever
found.
According to recently published
statistics of France, there S3S,059
births during the year 1890, and $780,
SOC deaths, or 1874 more deaths
than births. In the years 1S54-56
there was an excess of deaths. But
the Crimean war and cholera will ex-
plain that. The Franco-Prussian
war will also account for the exces-
sive number of deaths in 1901.
But in 1890 there was no war, and
the influenza epidemic will not
wholly account for the startling fig
ures. 1t is said that this state of
affairs may be accounted for an aver
sion to large families and by the
physical degeneracy OF the peple. The
higher classes have become effemin-
ate by high living; and the lower
classes have become weakened and
dwarfed by the hard work they are
compelled to do. Truly it is said,
''The real kings Eof the present day
are hard and merciless men, who,
with hand of iron, rule an army of
workmen."

Way of Color.

The hue of health Who can mistake it,
The white brow, the deepened tint of the
cheek, these associated with brightness and
animation of the eye, a CHEEKY expression of
the countenance. are infallible indicia that
the liver is performing its function actively,
and that consequently digestion and the
bowels are undisturbed. II, however, the
complexion and eyeballs have a saffron
tint, or the face is drawn and void of spright-
illness and animation, the hillary gland is
almost certain to be out o ( order. Rectify
the difficulty speedily, thoroughly, with the
paramount antibilious specific, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, which promptly remedies
not only the above outward and visible signs
of biliousness, but also the sick headaches,
constipation, vertigo, fur upon the tongue,
nausea, sour breath and pains through the
right side seriously involved in malaria, for
which the Bitters is sovereign specific. This
medicine remedies with equal promptitude
and completeness, kidney complaint, dys-
pepsia, rheumatism and nervousness.
