 For the past week New York, New Ha- ven and Hartford railroad stock has been steady in price from 25Sa to 28O. The early demand for the "rights" to accrue March 1 having been supplied, the price has dropped from 27 week ago to nomi- nal quotation on Saturday of 24 to %. It is thought that as the last day of Febru- ary approaches both the stock and rights will be in active demand. The Old Colony acquisition is viewed by the larger stock holders ss in the line of good business policy both for to day and for the future. Small lots of leased line stock are in de- mand to even up holders.

REV. MUNGER ON POOL ROOMS
The Pool Room Branded as one of the Great Corrupters of Society and the
 Passage of tho Ant1-POol Room Bill

The Pool Room Branded as one of the
 Great Corrupters of Society and the
 Passage of tho Anti-POol Room Bill
 Urged.
 Yesterday morning, at the United church in this city, the pastor, Rev. T. T. Munger, D. D., in the course of an able discourse from the text Luke xii:2: "There is nothing covered that shall not be re- vealed; neither hid that shall not be known," vigorously alluded to the pool room evils as follows: "There Is 8 bill be- fore our legislature that calls for the sup pression in the state of certain form of gambling known as the pool room There is at least one such room in this city, room where bets are received on horse races in other states. It is well for all Of 1t is conducted, who engage in 1t, why 1t is allowed, and what it leads to. It is one of the great corrupters of society. It is not only feeder of vice, but 1t is essentially illegal. It is proposed to make 1t formally illegal in order to exterminate it. There IS not reason why such rooms should be allowed. They drain the city and the state of money for which there is no return as in le- gitimate commerce. It feeds passion fatal to character and injurious to society. It IS temptation that specially appeals to the young.
 This room has sensibly lowered the moral tone of the young men ot the city and of the college. The city and the uni versity are not so pure in their morality ss they were before this room was established. It renders character impossible by violst- ing the principles out of which character is made. A young man who seeks to gain money by betting is already without char acter Money so won is as badly won as If stolen. The temptation to so win it is immense, and that is the reason why it should bs prevented by law.
 Every good citizen should make it his business, so far as he has influence, to se- cure the passage of this bill. It's passage and the execution of the law thus made would rid our city of the most copspicu- ous evil that just now happens to afact 1t.

wALDRON HERE.

He Will Appear at Police Headquar- ters This Morning-He is in Good
 Health.
 Frederick Fl. Waldron, ex-clerk Of the board of public works, arrived in this city shortly after o'clock last evening and went directly to his home, 105 Howe street, where he spent the night with his family. He was met by friends at his home, and the evening was spent in discussing the situation and devising means which should be adopted in the case.
 This morning promptly at g o'clock he will present himself at police headquarters prepared to answer any charges which may be made against him. He will be &C., companied by friends who will be pre- pared to furnish bonds for any amount, and, as announced exclusively in the JOUR- NAL AND COURIER Saturday morning, he will at once be liberated under bonds of $2, 300. After this he will be at liberty to go when and where he pleases.
 MT. Waldron is in unusually good health, said one of his warmest friends last even- ing, and barring the fatigue of travel le much better than he has been for some months past. He has arrived much sooner than thought he could possibly and am of the opinion has broken the record in point of time and making connections for the distance he has travelled. It was not MT. Waldron's wish in the first place to leave the oity, but as he was not well and continually harassed by people running after him he was advised by his friends to go away and acting on this advice he went. He has at all times been ready and willing to return whenever his friends directed and as soon as he knew definitely that g warrant had been issued at once started for home He is now here and will be at police headquarters without fail to-mor' TOW morning.

 Whose Business is 1t to Attend to
 This Tree?
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER.
 There Is tree right in front of the North church in the green which is in great dan ger of falhog at any moment. It is old and decayed and split from top to bottom. have watched it for two years, and am afraid it will drop and kill some of the many who daily pass beneath it. The au- thorities should take this tree down. Can you not use your influence in the matter and perhaps save one or more valuable Hves2 LEX.
 It is nobody's business until somebody is killed; then it is the city's business to pay heavy damages. March and heavy winds are coming. A tree on Orange street, near southeast corner of Elm, is likely to fall then, and there are many such all over the city.

Dangers of the Season.

The sudden changes in weather in the latter part of the winter and early spring are source of colds and coughs. A slight cold is likely to become a serious one, and the cough that follows is the one great cause of the many deaths from con sumption in the early spring. Never neglect cold or cough. Keep reliable remedy on hand. Kemp's Balssm Is strongly recommended For every form of throat and lung disorder, including the la grippe cough. oroup and oonsum ption in first stages, 1t probably has no equal anywhere.

The Toronto News rays of an entertainment in that city: "The concert was in every respect good. the singing being very fine. The remarks of the Rev. 0. H. Meade, which were inter larded between tho numbers, kept the audi ence in a state of constant good humor, be- ing highly laughsble, while they conveyed advice of sage and serious character" The Silver Lake quartette has sung from Maine to California. This quartette is whole glee club, brass band and musical entertainment in itselt There is but one Silver Lake, Squartette, and rich treat is in store for those who attend. Tickets may be had at the store of Charles E Hart, of the committee, or at the door.

First, the English Duchess Cloth.
 This is a new fabric, soft as the down on a peach, beautiful as a Berkshire sunset and dura- ble as a Milan breast plate.
 It comes mostly in dark grounds, striped, squared, span gled and seeded.
 T1eliotropes.
 Old Blues.
 These are especially nice. The grounds are brocaded- WOVEN brocade-while the fig ures, checks, plaids and stripes are printed.
 Equal in appearance to goods costing four or five times as much.
 Equal in wear, too.
 And the price is
 THIRTY-SEvEN AND A HALF CENTS A YARD.
 The Domestic Duchess Cloths are the next best things.
 These at 25c the yard.
 In French Sateens.
 A gathering of plaids and Scotchy effects, pinks, helio- trope, willow and all the other shades.
 These are particularly suita- ble for waists.
 Then there is the English Duchess in solid black, brocaded or perfectly plain, as you prefer.
 WHIpcoRDs.
 Sturdy stuff that everybody knows about-heaps of it here.
 But not the Whipcords you're used to, except in the matter of QUALITY. That's right of course, but what do you think of nine shades of Whipcords, in seeded effects, specked on the surface with little knots or tiny figures of silk ? Looks almost too beauti- ful to be durable, but the wear is not absent to make room for the design.
 Damascene Armure, in all the shades of tans, willow, helio- trope, navy and serpent. Some of them in seeded effects, too. Then come the Velours, seed ed again-beats all how popular this sprinkling of silk is |! Now, then Here's something we've kept back can't keep it back any longer, though. Three sorts of silk finish Hen rietta Cloths. You'll know them by the red tickets. The first cost 62 Hc at whole sale.
 While this lot lasts 1t will come to you at FIFTY-NINE CENTS THE YARD.
 The second is 46 inches wide. The price
 SEVENTY-NINE CENTS A YARD.
 The third is the same width, but it will cost you $l.oo a yard and it's worth more than the difference.
 Formerly it was the custom every time a nail was driven or shelf moved to inaugurate a "Grand Sale"
 That isn't the big stores way. We've had to move our velvets farther down the aisle because the silks crowded them, but the removal hasn't brought about a bankrupt sacrifice.
 There's a great velvet season coming or we lose our guess. That's why we placed an order with one house last week for 200 shades of velvet. Did you think there were so many2
 At $l.oo yard we can give you every one of the staple shades.
 At SIPS, superb quality in all the staple shades.
 At $l.5o, a special quality |
