MEANT TO KILL.

Joseph Lombardi Attempted to Shoot
 Ills Boarding Mistress - His Aim
 Was Poor and His Intended Victim
 Was UniDjured.
 Joseph Lomoardi of IF Cain street was arrested about noon yesterday by Officers Connolly and Reilly and locked up charged with assault with intent to kill and carry ing concealed deadly weapons. He will be tried in the city court this morning on both charges
 For some time past Lombardi has been boarding with Josephine Festo, who ksepa boarding house at IF Cain street. For g time he paid his board regularly, but fol the past two weeks he ran behind. Yes terday his boarding mistress, Mrs. Festo told him that he owed her for two weeks board, and unless he paid up at once he would have to get out as she could not afford ! to keep him any longer unlsss he paid his | way.
 This information nettled Lombardi and he proceeded to make an answer more for.
 cible than elegant. Some words ensued between the couple, after which Lombardi pulled 8 loaded revolver out of his hil ! pocket and fired two shots at his boarding | mistress who stood directly in front of him and only about two feet distant. Luckily l Lombardi's aim was bad and neither of the shots hit his intended victim. The shott went on each side of Mrs. Festo, one lodg | ing in the easement of the door and the other in the wall.
 Lombardi was quickly disarmed by some of the other boarders and turned over tc
 the police. Upon his arrival at the pre- cinct he was thoroughly searched and th,
 revolver, with two chambers empty, found
 upon him and he was promptly locked uE ! in default of bonds

PACKAGES IN BAGGAGE CARS,

Two Hundred Car Loads of LehiEh
 Valley Freight Carried Last Week.
 New Round Houses to be Built at
 Southington.
 0. H. Platt, general superintendent of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad, Saturday officially denied that the road had issued an order forbiddipg pat rons of the road to put packages into the baggage car, as was stated. He sail, however, that the privilege of allowing bag gage to be carried free of charge was being abused by the travelling public, and some measures must be taken to protect the com pany. MT. Platt laughed at the story pub hshed recently alleging that he had just given out an order requiring contractors and bosses of construction gangs to dis criminate in favor of Iriehmen whenever the question of nationality was raised. He said he had issued no order of that charas- ter whatever.
 MT. Platt stated that under the terms of the traffic agreement with the Lehigh Val ley road over 200 cars of coal had been car ried over the Consolidated road the past week. He announced that, owing to the large amount of engine service on the Shore Line, new roundhouses will be built at Stonington at once, and many ot the trains will change locomotives there instead of at New London. The change will equalizs the strain upon the resources of the en- zines fin the run from New Haven to Prov idence, as the change Is now made invaria- bly, at New London daily, and nearly half will be moved along ten miles to Stoning- inn

AT GRACE M. K. CHURCH.

Largo Congregations and Hntefest-s Ing Services at This Church Yester-
 day.
 An immense congregation listened to an excellent sermon by Rev. Frank A. Scp- field, pastor of the Grace N. E. church, yesterday morning. His subject was ''The Overcoming Church," and his text was "Him that overcometh will I make pill lar in the temple of my God"; Revelation iii, 12. He said in part:
 "The church of God must adapt iteelf to the present times. The old methods of work must be changed if the church of God is to become an overcoming church. It must find room in itself for all the necessities of mans physical, mental and spiritual nature. Every man should find 6 home in the church. All societies that have for their object the ameliorstion oi the suffering ard distress of mankind and the elevation of the human race should bt fostered by the church; should bs nour | ished inside the church. "There should be no strangers in tn, church of God. Every man, even thougf worshipping for the first time, should b, made to feel that 1t is the church of God | and that thoee whom he finds there are hi | brethren.
 "The church of God, to be conquerint l church, must be working church. Al the members, not few, must do work. | s'She must also be a holy church. Holi ness unto the Lord must be inscribed oi her banners. Not a holiness that sits il idle contemplation, with vacant upward gaze, but strong, manly, hearty holines that reaches out its hand in everything t. all in need of help"
 In the evening MT. Scofield spoke ol "the Way to Mes. Temptations" his tex being tBlessed is the man that enduretl temptation, for when he Is tried he shal receive the crown of life, which the Lor hath promised to them that love Him. James i, 12. He said ia part:
 "Every man who amounts to anythin in this life must have fought his ws through temptation. How to meet thes temptations is sometimes puzzling quei tion, especially to Christian young people By earnest prayer, by a strong relianc upon God, by active cooperation in e Christian work, by keeping out of all dar gerous places and society, many of tn temptations of life may be successful overcome"

Remarks by Rev. Dr. Willard at
 Westvile Congregational Church.
 At Westville Congregational church yesterday the pastor, Rev. Dr. Willard, delivered a sermon of much power, in the course of which he said:
 The winter is upon us. Long and cold and dreary 1t may be. And in the case of not 8 few there Is danger of swift. coming want. And it would be safe to say that four-ffths of this will be the result of i'm providence and extravaganza. But to discriminate and put all the suffering upon the guilty ones is an impossibility. Moth CTS with innocent little children have worthless husbands. And these mothers and children must be cared for by feeling hearts and generous bands.
 Besides We have widows and orphans, | and some men who are weak and worn and weary, poor and yet worthy. If 1t were given us to take all the chaff and throw il l out of ''the back door of the universe then we should know just what to do. As ! it is, when we think of that growling 1 snarling, threatening crew that are in ou, | cities, one almost despsirs of the republic Show kindness we should, but there Ii | need also of wise discrimination. It was Washington who said in sentiment '1I | sA-A1S S1 PS0So pioPoA0 AoA "et. " A@ prosperity, one should take provident fore thought for diversity. Not by anxious care but by ''careful care" Not by avar lee, nor greed, nor selishness, but by { thoughtful preparation for coming days.
 It is fearful sin against God that ther, is so much poverty and suffering in ou land. As already stated four-ffths of never ought to have been and never neet to have been.
 The men who have been true to churcl and school and all good order are not, as rule, begging for charity and almngivine
 But what of those who frequented saloons Should one say, "It is cruel to make thi distinction" my reply Is, then, "God cruel" for He makes 1t. Read the book c
 Proverbs and there learn where povert,
 roots itself. And, If SO inclined, one ca
 taste the fruit 1t bears. But in the ess
 of many not so inclined, they taste bscaus
 of the sins of others, and these are th
 real objects of sympathy. And to an
 well-regulated call to supply their necet
 sary wants all generous hearts will sladl
 respond.

Prices Were Slightly Lower-Specu1a- tive Attacks on Stocks at the Close. NEW YORK, Dec 16.-The decrease in specie in today's bank statement fairly reflected the weeks gold export movement Meantime the stock of legal tenders has increased, but the in- crease in deposits is more than accounted for by the large expansion in loans, an account which has increased more than 100000 in the three last weeks. The plain indication from the state ment Is that remittances from interior banks have fallen to @ minimum. The statement was taken as alarming news, and in the last half hour e vigorous attack was made on prices. The in- dustrials, which had opened strong, were sold down in several instances below yesterdays prices. But this trading was of little conse- quence.
 Following are the closing prices, reported by PRINCE q wHrrKLY. bankers and brokers, 96 Broadway, N. F., and 15 Center street, New Hs- ven, Conn.,:

Daprerous Preparations.

Allcock's Porous Plaster is composed of purely vegetable ingredients and is abso lutely harmless. It assists nature in her own efforts to heal end invigorate, and imparts strength to the whole system.
 Many preparations contain strong chem ical and mineral substances which produce an injurious effect, not only upon the skin, but upon the whole system, although at first they seem very beneficial, on &C., count of their powerful action and tempo rary effect upon the surface. When purchasing 8 plaster do not only ask for Allcock's, but make sure that you get 1t.
 Brandreth's Pills are purely vegetable.

Fire Caused by an Electric Spark.
 NoRwALK, Dec 16.-A fire which oc- cured yesterday in the residence of Coun- cilman James Southerland on Belden ave- nue had a very peculiar origin. The cleo trio tramway passes the place. and 1t ap- pears that the return current, some of which escapes from the rails into the ground, followed an iron water pips into MT. Sutherland's cellar, then switched off to gas pipe at point where the two came in contact, and followed the latter to the meter, where 1t melted the lead connection and ignited the gas. The flames had com municated to the floor timbers when they were discovered, but thoughtful neigh bor turned off the gas, and the fire was extinguished with but triaing damage. A fireman, who laid his coupling wrench upon the water pipe, received severe shock,
