nirectuIn May Re Barred.

Too much greatness is almost as fatal to horses usefulness-as toolittle. The Horse man says that to bar or not to bar Direc- tum from the free for alls of 1894 is the question at present agitating many secre- taries and other track managers. The sec retary of a leading track recently sent out a circular letter to all the leading drivers asking an expression of opinion on the sub ject of barring the champion stallion from such races.
 Every one of the replies was to the effect that no trotter now in training could cope successfully with the black son of Director. As consequence in one free for all shortly to be advertised the 5-year-old will be bar red. The fashion may be followed by all the principal tracks. and the value of Own CT Greens stallion will be seriously i'm paired. For years Johnston was barred. There was not dollar for him to win on any course in the country.
 Commodore Kittson paid S2O,OO0 for the shapely bay gelding who took his record the next year, and then for four years turf men were confronted with the anomalous condition of horse decreasing in value by virtue of his excellence. The value Of race horse is largely determined by the amount he can win, and therefore if Di- rectum is barred this year from the free for alls his value will be curtailed. Still there should be an ample field T.r the exercise of his powers in giving exhibitions.

Some Amusing Incidents as a Result of
 It's Conditions.
 The annual report of the state board of health just issued says of the medical practice act: It will not show any imme- diate marked results, because the pro- visions of the laws are such that the large number of incompetent medical imposters, which more stringent laws in other states had driven into Connecticut, were not in- terrupted in their career here. It was only necessary for them to make oath that they were engaged in the practice of medi- cine and resident in the state to entitle them to be registered at any time previous to October l, 1893.
 Some of the applicants for registration could not write and had to make their marks on affidavits. One wrote: II taught first when 1 received your notice that your board did not register vetenary surgean, but learnt cence that you do I practic foure years under other Doctors and Three years alone before I came to this state have been Two years in this state did not state that had practised in this state on a blank because I did not have an office here altho have practice l have had at anavrag one case a week cence have been hear.'
 Another ambitious applicant for medical honors sends the following: "I write you to see if can get a permit to put up a Blood medison maid of Herbs this has been my business for years and I intended to have wrote to you befour this but have a sick Lady to see to so l have not had tlme."
 Both of these epistles were received the same day and from residents of the same town.
 The real benefits of the medical practice act will be realized slowly and increasing ly. as the present race of harpies remove or die, and their places are taken by qualified phySiclanS

WORLD OF SPORTS.

The Sun says Lachance has shown up finely in the practice games.
 Baltimore won six straight games in New Orleans
 Not hit was made by the Sioux Cltys in the four innings that they faced Pitcher knell at Pittsburg.
 The New York Times says that Charley Farrell has the height of Corbett and the physique of Santow.
 Joseph c. Theisen, the well known catcher of the Meriden club. has signed with the New Haven team. He is a very strong player and recently refused S125 from the Springfield club
 The Baltimores should have by far the best of it in the early games, and if they do not warm the New Yorks at the start, it will be surprising The management of the club was smart and enterprising enough to take the team down south, and in Macon, Ga, and New Orleans the club has had valuable practice, and got into splendid form. Meanwhile, the outings that the northern clubs have taken have been most harmful.

THE MILLER MURDER CASE
Evidence Damaging to Dr Lee Brought
 Out This Morning.

Out This Morning.
 NEW HAVEN, April 13.-The third day of the Lee murder trial opened this morn ing with Medical Examiner White on, the stand. Mir Goodhardt continued his cross examination briefly, bringing out nothing new, and Dr White was excused to be re- called later. Dr Francis Bacon, the well known surgeon, was called and expressed the opinion that Mrs Miller had diei as a result of a criminal abortion. He was eX- cused after brief examination to be re- called at some future time. The state then introduced Dr Henry Fleischner, of the Yale medical school. His testimony was, in the opinion of the spectators in the crowded court room, of a character most damaging to the accused. He made a good witness, telling straightforward story. He said that Mrs Miller died Of criminal abortion. He was called into the case by the woman's husband; found her suffering from abortion; asked Dr Lee, who admitted being the attending physl- clan, as to her trouble. Dr Lee told him she was suffering from an entirely different trouble and when the witness demanded that Dr Lee report the matter to the au- thorities, the accused refused. In the opinion of the lawyers who were resent the lawyers for the defense will face an awful task to controvert this evidence.

startling Discovery Near Paris.

IAMe, April 13. The police made a startling discovery at Aubervilliers d small town five miles north of this city, this morning.. The police have known that the anarchists have been seeking refuge in the ncighboring towns, inhabited mostly by wOrkingmcn who would not be liable to betray them. It was suspected that some of the anarchists had sought shelter in Aubervilliers. This morning the police found enough dynamite and powder in water way near that town to blow up half of Paris. The explosives were contained in four tin boxes and con- sisted of ten pounds of powder, twenty pounds of dynamite cartridges and scrap steel and a dangerous reversible bomb.

ity in weight between Willie Dare's father and Sandow's three ponies is no more strik ing than that in physique between Willie Dare and Sandow.
 Dr. James F.. Kelly, when asked to ac- count for the ease with which Willie Dare had accomplished such difficult feat, said: 1T saw Sandow perform that feat, and. like most people, thought it his most remark able exhibition of strength until 1 consid- cred the matter and discovered that the forces involved were largely mechanical and not muscular. The measure of the feat is that of the resistance of the perform CTS bones to the superimposed crushing weight. The legs and arms being in yer tical position, the weight is transmitted di- rectly through the bones to the feet and hands, The margin of the platform far thest from the performers head is support ed on the fixed and rigid legs and feet.
 Consequently no weight short of that capable of crushing the sustaining bones would be sufficient to destroy the support afforded by a human being in such pos ture. A man of medium strength could perform similar feat

 There are many people living within a radius of 20 miles of Westport who have never heard of it's beautifully located sanitarium. A recent visit disclosed many interesting facts to us. It is a private institution located A miles from New York City on the New York and
 New Haven railroad and is devoted to the care and treatment of patients hav- ing nervous and mental disease. The grounds comprise 50 acres, beautifully laid out in drives, walks and lawns, hav- ing the grand old shade trees where one
 may repose at leisure and gaze out upon the handsome ornamental and fruit trees. This private institution was in- corporated under the Connecticut State laws in April, 1891, when large four story building with spacious halls and
 commodious rooms, especially arranged for the convenience and comfort of the patients, was erected. The building faces beautiful lawn with large foun- tain in the center. The entire building is heated by steam and lighted by gas, be- ing well ventilated. The ceilings are nine feet high and the rooms and halls are neatly and tastefully carpeted giving it homelike appearance. All rooms have the latest design furniture and are very neat and clean, with every comfort for the patient. The superintenden Dr F. D. Rutland, is man of a most pleas ing and genial nature and answers all questions in gentlemanly and pleasing
 manner. The presiding officers are President, ,. Frank southnaay "a, M; D.;
