Helen A. Kean. the Clairvoyant and Song
 Writer. Found Guilty.

Helen A, Kean, the Clairvoyant and Sung
 Writer. Found Guilty.
 Helen Ashland Kean, the clairvoyant, was in court this morning and pleaded guilty to a charge of practicing medicine without a license, and receiving compensation there for. She said, however, that she actedun- der advice of Prosecuting Attorney O'Neill. Edward P. .Corbett, a resident of New Haven. testified that he went to see Mrs Kean twice to be cured of catarrh. She pre- scribed for him and charged $2 for the consultation and medicine. He did not use the medicine. James Brown of Wat erville said she had prescribed for his wife and had visited his house almost every day for six weeks. She charged $2 for the first visit and various prices afterwards. He could not be shaken in his testimony by the accused, who acted as her own at torney He would not admit that his wife said that she was getting better. She is worse now. Mrs Kean herself said she had practiced for the last seven months. She did so at the advice of the mouth piece of tho law, Attorney O'Neill. As clairvoyant she could use proprietary medicines. She had applied for patent on the medicines she prescribed. The statement made in the papers that she used arsenic was false. Attorney O'Neill said the woman did call at his office and he had read to her the statutes relative to medirine. Her medicines were not pro- prietary and he thought she violated the law. Mrs Kean replied that she had merely to say she acted honestly. ''If have been doing wrong for seven months, |" she said, "why was I not brought up be- fcre. had a permit from Chief Egan to sell" This was found to be a simple peddler's license. Judge Root said he thought Mrs Kean guilty. He would, however, look up the law on the matter and decide Saturday She gave bond of $10o for her appearance.
 Officer Bailey made his first arrest yesterday. While on the North Main street beat, near the junction, he saw 8 man and woman linked arms and trying to cover the whole walk. Passers-by had to take to the gutter. Both were drunk. He ushered them to the station. Both denied having been drunk, this morning. They gave the names of James Sanford and Annie Finch. Each was fined $5.
 New England road officials are bound to put stop to boys and men hanging As consequence they keep in their en- ploy William A. Foley, deputy sheriff of East Hartford, who travels over the line, stopping at various stations on various trains. Yesterday he saw five boys dodg- ing in and out among the cars. As soon as they saw him they started to run. He gave chase and captured Felix Lallier, aged 13, and Thomas Erwin, aged IF. This morning three of the railroad em- ployes testified to seeing the boys hanging around the yard. The boys said they were on their way to ball game. Judge Root gave them a reprimand and let them go.
 Charles Miller explained that he was away fishing the other day, when his law yer asked for a continuance of the case against him. The case will be tried on Saturday.

THE VIGIlANT SOLD.
The Millionaire's Offer of Sa5, 900 For the Fastest s1oop Afoat Accepted by the Sym dicate, Whom She Cost Four Times as

muCn-Mrs BenneCES Ouef :" 1thuraWns NEW YORK, April 19.-Mr. George J. Gould has purchased the Vigilant. The gentlemen who had the yacht built last season to defend the America's s cup against the Valkyrie met and decided to accept the terms offered by MT. Gould. MT. Gould is to pay S25, 900 for the boat. This will be a big surprise to yachtsmen, as MT. Gould's name was never thought of in connection with the famous cup defender.
 MT. James Gordon Bennett's offer for the boat was S30,000, and the members of the syndicate were naturally anxious to get all they could for the yacht that had cost them so much. MT. Bennett's offer, though, was contingent on being able to arrange a series of races satisfactorily with the Prince of Wales cutter Britannia.
 This he has been unable to do. The Prince of Wales and MT. Bennett could not agree as to the courses over which the yachts were to sail, so the offer of 900 for the boat was withdrawn.
 It is probable that MT. Gould agreed to buy the yacht on her passing a survey by naval architect, and as soon as she has been examined and found to be all right she will be formally transferred
 The Vigilant was built by the Heres hoffs for a syndicate composed of Commo- dore E. D. Morgan, MT. c. Oliver Iselin, Mr. Adrian Iselin, MT. Cornelius Wander bilt, Mr. August Belmont, MT. O. H. P. Belmont, MT, Perry Belmont, Mr. Charles R. Flint, Dr. W. Barton Hopkins and three other gentlemen.
 The members of the syndicate subscribed S100,000 when it was formed, and later in the season another $25, 900 was subscribed. The Herreshoffs charged $60000 to build the boat, and several thousand dollars more was spent for new sails, spars and changes that were made in her. It is probable that the boat cost $S5, ,000, and the balance of the money was spent in running her during the season.
 Will Probably Race Her.
 If Mir. Gould wants the boat to race S25, 900 is a cheap price. If she is to be used for cruising, q considerable sum of money will have to be spent to cut down her spars and sails and fit her out comfortably.
 It is probable that MT. Gould intends to race her. He is a member of the New York Yacht club and owns the big schooner Hildegarde, formerly owned by the Prince of Wales, in which he and Mrs. Gould cruise every summer
 He also owns the big steam yacht Ata- lanta, in which he can cruise all over the world if he wants to. MT. Gould and his wife are both very fond of the water, and it is probable that MT. Gould wishes to have some racing and is ambitious to own the fastest sloop afloat, and for that reason he has made the offer for the Vigilant. Some years ago he owned the 46 foot sloop Fanita, which he raced considerably in the regattas near this city, but gave up the sport because he could not devote the time to the sport that yacht racing requires.
