MILITARY FESTIVITIES.

The members OF Companies and G. First
Infantry N q. c., dedicated their new and
beautiful armory, 815 Ellis street. last Friday
evening by giving a grand bali there. There
were fully 1900 people assembled In the build
ing that evening. some TO dance, some to look
at The merry throng. and others to inspect the
handsome appointments. The commodiou 5
ballroom was inadequate to hold the many
dancers so the large drill hall was also used for
that purpose. Light tinted gowns of rich tex
ture predominated with the fair sex. while the
militia appeared in uniforms. Captain and
Mrs Taylor led the grand march, the latter
being elegantly attired. The ball was grand
success ana reflected much credit upon the
members OF the two companies.

Socialists Take Water.
Nev york T,mas

In Munich recently the socialists hit
upon novel device for furnishing the pro-
prietor of beer cellar who had refused to
let his rooms for a meeting of the social
lists club. For the Sunday after his re-
fusal he had arranged a concert, at which
he expected his takings to be considerable.
But the socialists mustered early and in
large mum bers. They filled up the whole
available space and ordered only water.
The landlord was Mortified to realize what
happened. His expected profit was turned
into a heavy loss. The socialists stood
their ground stcically. depriving them
selves of the thing which is dearest to
them. and which. according to German
proverb, makes a Bavarian "the most ter
rible of all terrors." The landlord sued
the leaders of The socialists for breach of
the peace. but as no such breach could be
proved they were let go without fines.

A small boy in Maine, who brough home
mud turtle from pond quarter of a
mile away, noticed that whenever set free
the turtle set off In bee-line direction TO-
ward the pond.
The boy tried TO confuse the turtle in
every way he could devise, but the turtle
was too smart for him and always started
off in the right direction, as if he knew
where he was going and was bound to get
there in the quickest time possible.
And now the boy has puzzled the whole
township by dem dnding to know how that
turtle knew in what direction his ancestral
pond lay.

Naming Railroad Stations,

WELLINGTON, March 24-The bill re- gently introduced into the legislature, making it compulsory for railroad com panies to have their railroad stations named after the villages in which they are located is of much interest to the res idents of this town. The railroad station for this town has always been Holland, and all efforts of Wilmington citizens have not been able to induce the New London Northern railroad com- pany to change the name. The postoffice just opposite the station is known as West Wilmington. Holland is four miles away and has no interest whatever in this station, as all mail matters and pas sengers for Holland go to Rockville, where stage takes them to Holland. The station in the borough of Stafford Springs is called Stafford, which is the name of large village two miles from the station. The proposed law provides a penalty of $1OO a day for failure to carry out the provisions of the bill.

 Edward Skinner died of quick con- sumption early yesterday morning in the hospital at the prison at Wethers- field. Skinner was a colored man, 22 years old, unmarried, and lived in New Haven. Last December in & squabble he bit a large piece out of one of the ears of a man named John Cornell. He was convicted of mayhem in the Jsnu- arY term of the superior court and sent to Wethersfield for seven years. The officials say he contracted quick con- sumption after manner not unusual in prisons. Skinner was a robust man, naturally, but the disease made very rapid progress. He was sent to the hospital, but did not seem to consider himself very ill for on Wednesday he got up from his bed and walked about. The physician reproved him for his carelessness. He went to bed and died at o'clock yesterday morning. .,
 Dr Alex Wanter. a Russian practi- tioner who has held a good share of public attention during the past three or four months, has left New Haven in an unceremonious fashion. During the cholera scare the doctor created quite a panic by announcing that he had 8 number of cases of Asiatic cholera under his care. Later, he was sued for heavy damages for having administered carbolic acid in heavy doses to a patient, and was a few weeks ago up in the city court for an aggravated assault upon his servant girl. On this point he was also defendant in a civil action, and was required to furnish 8 bond for $1 ,500.
 Mystery still surrounds the sudden disappearance of R. Ensign Abbe, who has not been seen or heard from since last Friday. He went to Hartford and was returning home on the early morn ing train, and conversed with a friend who left him at Windsor and who saw him pay his fare to Enfield. Since then nothing has been heard of him. He was the last person to be thought of as leaving his family without notifying them, and it is supposed that he is temporarily deranged. He was about 50 years old, five feet eight inches tall.
 Joseph Barbour, representing the Hartford and New York Transportation company, and Charles J. Cole, counsel for the parties who ask for authority to construct new bridge between Middle town and Portland, had a conference yesterday morning and came to an agreement by which the Transportation company has withdrawn it's opposition to the bridge. The builders agree that the bridge shall be 1,50O feet north of the Air Line bridge and shall have 400 foot span, leaving free passage of 1855 feet. The draw is to be operated by the latest mechanical devices. ~c
 Samuel Gouter, who stabbed John Donskinki at the Malleable iron shops in Meriden, Wednesday, has been arrested. The case has been continued until Mon- day. It is believed the Donskinki will recover.
