In no particular section west of the New England states is there a Full crop. but every section in the states l visited. which has sup piled winter fruit heretofore. will sup ply quite largely this year. A close in- spection shows this to be season in which the fruit is found we'll inside the tree. The quality of the fruit is be- low the average, except In Missouri. Kansas. Nebraska and Iowa. The ag- gregate supply will be in excess of the fall of 1891, except as It may be changed within the next few weeks by the ele- ments The crop in the New England states, New York and Michigan Is fully equal to that of last year. In some sections apples have been injured by the severe drought, but late rains are bound to help them." ..

Caught a Big snapring-Turtle.


 Hartford, Sept A.-Edward O'Malley, Frank Olden, Alfred storrs. Daniel sul- livan and Patrick Kelley, five small boys from Russell street and vicinity, created quite sensation around city hall square to-day with a big snapping turtle, which they were carrying about from one restaurant to another trying to sell. His turtleship was ,slung up by the tail, tied to the middle of a long stick. He was a big one and he had a mouth big enough to take in good sized apple. He could thrust out his long ugly neck for 8 distance of six inches, and when he closed those steel trap jaws of his on any object he had a grip on it for keeps, Finally, some one suggested that the boys take the turtle into Ways hardware store to be weighed. They did1so, And--tfie task was accomplished with sofies dflnculty only after turning him 1ens4hts. back. He tipped the beam at exactly thirteen pounds. DftAt
 The boys captured the turtle in the North meadows, and the boys say there is another. even bigger than this one, which they propose to capture next. The turtle attracted no little iRtfention on the street, and wherever, the boys stopped for a moment H rrcrd sur rounded them.

It is probable that the county jail now located in the town Of Litchheld will soon be removed from that place to winsted. where new building. more modern than the present one. will be erected. Several years ago a tract of i've acres of land was purchased in winsted for this purpose. and on this site the new jail will undoubtedly be built. the present jail property in Litch- held being sold for residential purposes. a liberal offer for which has already been made. It is estimated that suitable building can be erected for s65, 900 to 10000.

DR. HOADLEY,S PAPER.

Procs edInSs at the Meeting of the Historl-
 cal society.
 The first meeting Of the New Haven Historical society since the summer va cation was held last evening. The meet ing was called to order by President Baldwin, and an announcement of the donations to the society during the summer was made. Many valuable and interesting relics have been presented to the society, amoung which are a Ja- panese soup plate from MT. saltonstall, and the diary of Rev. MT. Wadsworth, pastor years ago of church in Hart ford. This diary gives graphic descrip- tion of the incidents in the lives of the clergymen of those days. After the secretary's report an exceedingly inter- esting and instructive paper was read by Dr. Frederick H. Hoadley on "A Re- view Of the Epidemic of Yellow Fever in New Haven in the Year 1794." The paper was much enjoyed and was an ex- haustive treatise on the causes which led up to the pestilence, together with daily summery of the new cases and deaths during its prevalence. The doc tor, in his research, has found that the epidemic which at first had the form of scarletina and bilious fever began to develop its malignant form of yellow fever in the month of June, 1794, and continued in its ravages until the lat ter part of October, when it began to abate.: At the same time the terribel scourge was rampant in Philadelphia and Baltimore In New Haven the mortality resulting from the disease was terrible, and is even said to have been nearly one-twentieth of the popu- lation of the city, which at that time was nearly .4,000. At the close of the meting vote of thanks was rendered Dr. Hoadley.
 During the summer the society build ing has been repaired this being neces- sitated by the cracking of the ceilings and walls due to the damp condition of the walls when built. The repairs were done through the generosity of MT. Eng lish. the builder.
 In our next issue will appear com- plete digest of Dr. Hoadley's paper, which will be of interest to all old citi- Zens.
 Dr. Hoadley is the guest of Judge WilliamK. Townsend.
