For many years after he came here the

swamp or the bed of the river. DR..
David Day will be given an opportu nifty
today to tell what he remembers of the

Mr.. Dana did not lose his presence of
mind, but directed the men to resume
their seats. This they did, and the

was no attempt to break for liberty, as
stated in an evening paper, but the

EXCITING RUNAWAY.
A Horse Plunges Through the
Windows Of Field, Mahler & Co.


a runaway horse attached to cutter
on st. Peter street yesterday made a
leap that put in the shade the historical
leaps of the horses of Gen. McCulloch or
Gen. Mcpherson. The leap yesterday
was through two heavy plate glass win
dows in the store of Field, Mailer & Co.
The horse belongs to Charles Cowling,
of 36S East Winifred street. 1t became
frightened near the Grand opera house
and started to run. Mr.. Cowling was
thrown out of the cutter. The horse
ran towards the river and was fright
ened by hackmen and boys in front of
the Windsor hotel, who thought it
would stop at their waving of whips.
Reaching the entrance to the store of
Field, Mailer & Co. on st. Peter street,
the horse swerved into the doorway
and sprang through heavy plate glass
into a show window. Another lung e
was made past the second plate glass
and through the third of the heavy
plate windows to the pavement. The
sleigh stuck in the show window, but
the shafts chung to the horse, which fell
upon the pavement. The horse was
severely cut by the glass, especially OH
the back, but it is thought the animal
will recover. The cuts were scwed up
and the horse was taken home. The
damage to the windows amounts to
about $500, and the damage to the lacs
curtains in the show window Will be
about $50. Ali day long people viewed
the scene of the unusual act The clerks
of the store were importuned for infor-
nation to such al extent that business
WAS interfered with until come one
posted on the Intervening window that
was not broken, the following epigra-
matte story: "Horse did Invent clear
through window-Don't know whose
horse it was-lt was gray horse
When he came out he was the worse for
wear-Noboby was hurt-The horse will
live"

TREMBLING ON The VERGE.
WILL THE ALDERMEN INVESTIGATE
THE cHARGSS AGAINST FRANK Ms
OF QUIETLY DODGE IssUEe

The City Attorney Asked to De-
eide if Franklin Is Not an
Alderman Until His Successor
Is Elected and Qualified-Th
So Desire-They May Not Do
So for Fear They Will Find
"S15 in His Inside Pocket"
On the opinion of the city attorney
which will be given today, as to whether
Aid. Franklin is still member of the
board of aldermen depends the question
of an investigation of the charges made
against the Sixth ward reformer by his
associates in the council.
President Hickman, of the board of
aldermen, brought the question of
Franklin'S membership TO the notice of
the city attorney. President Hickman
is said to be much in earnest in the mat
ter, and if the city attorney gives his
opinion that Franklin is still member
of the board, committee will be APP
pointed at tOnight'S session to inveSti-
gate the charges made against him.
City Attorney Chamberlain, asked for
his opinion last evening, said he had
not given the matter the consideration
he desired to before giving an answer.
Without giving the matter any con-
sideration Mr.. Chamberlain was of the
opinion that Franklin was still menu
Der of the council, and would be until
his successor was elected and qualified.
As far as could be learned, Franklin
is not making any effort to have an in
veStigatiOn by the council, and several
of his friends are of the opinion the
better course to pursue for all hands,
at least all Republican hands, would be
TO accept the resignation as soon as the
board of aldermen convene this even
ing, and Immediately proceed to elect
Paul Quehl as the member from the
Sixth ward. This action. it is claimed,
would relieve the board OF aldermen
from all blame in the matter. and also
save the integrity of the refOrmerS as a
body from any asperSionS which a
searching investigation would cast OH
them. as one of the reform aldermen
expressed it yesterday afternoon, the
more you stir up the eXcrement the
nearer it smells to heaven.
Friends of Franklin who are anxious
that there be no investigation by the
council claim that the opinion of the
city attorney will be that Franklin is
not a member Of the council. His being
elected as secretary of the fire board
and his refusing TO vote at a recent
meeting of the board of aldermen they
ain prove that his resignation took
effect at the time it was offered rs tar as
he was concerned. The statement was
made by several of his supporters last
evening that in day or so Franklin
would have an explanation ready for
publication which would deny the
charges.

DEATH OF ELLEN c. COSTELLO.

Mrs Ellen c. Costello, wife of John H. Costello, proprietor of the Glen House in Sandy Hook, died very unexpectedly Saturday afternoon, January 27, 1894, at her late residence, aged B years and few months. She had been ailing few days of the prevailing grip, being con- fined to the house but not to her bed, and nothing was thought of her illness by herself or friends until Wednesday preceding her death, when the attending physician, Dr Cooley, announced that the indisposition had turned into pneumonia. She began to sink rapidly, despite all eff | forts, and the ministrations of religion were sought. Father Lynch, who is wis., iting at the Roman Catholic rectory, was | called in and prepared her for death im- | mediately. She continued to fail, but re- mained tranquil and conscious to her last moments and died peaceful and happy, her only regret being to leave her chil- dren and husband who survive her. The funeral took place from her late home, | Monday morning, to St Roses church, where high mass of requiem was cele- brated by Father Fox. The funeral pro- cession was very large, notwithstanding | f tba
 ter thus far. The interment was in the Catholic cemetery in the Glen. The pail bearers were Judge of Probate M. J. Bradley, a cousin, Michael F. Carmody, James J. Carmody, T. J. Lynch, cousins, and Henry A. Costello and Charles Cos tello, sons of Selectman Timothy Costel- 10, and brothers of the bereaved husband
 The floral offerings were profuse and ele-
 gant; A pillow, with the inscription
 "Wife;" standing cross with ''Mama; ;
 harp with "Sister,' from family, ano a number of bouquets, all testifying tt
 the esteem and affection in which the de ceased was held. The casket and tuner al appointments were among the mos
 elegant ever seen in town and were iron the undertaking firm of Brew & Scanlol of Sandy Hook. The survivors of tn
 deceased, besides the husband and thre
 children, are M. F. Collins, representa-
 tive from Newtown to the General As
 sembly, Mrs Bridget Collins, mother | and several brothers and sisters who re
 side in Bridgeport with their mother.

The entertainment given at the Guild rooms of Trinity church, Bristol, Ct,, Wednesday evening, was great success. In spite of the storm the rooms were we'll filled, and the little ones earned the sum of $20 for mission work. Great credit is due to Miss Peck and Miss Scher- merhorn, under whose management it was given, for the careful finish of the work. The children entered into the spirit of the characters they represented, and the songs and antics of the little Chinese were alone worth the price of admission. The little Shaking Quak- CTS" were equally good, but not as mirth- provoking. The tableaux were artistic and the reading and recitations meritor- ious. The piano solos were we'll render ed. It is hoped the entertainment may be repeated as many were unable to at tend on account of the weather. Bris- tol Press.

BOLD ROBBERY AT BRIDGEPORT
A SAFE BLOWN OPEN AT NOON AND $2500
 WORTH OF DIAMONDS STOLEN.

The safe in the office of the Pacific iron works on Housatonic avenue at Bridge port was broken open Monday noon, while all the men were at dinner and dia- monds valued at between $20OO and $2500 were stolen, the robbers making good their escape. When P. H. Skidmore ,Jr., one of the owners, arrived from dinner he discovered the robbery and found the tracks of two men in the snow. They entered the office by the east window, ,and the outer door of the safe was not closed. With heavy weight they demolished the inner door and easily broke open the drawers. They found no money, but took pair of diamond earrings, and two diamond crosses, one a Maltese. The earrings were the property of Mrs P. H. Skidmore, Jr. The two crosses belonged to r. II. Skidn4ore, ST. There were oth- CT diamonds in the safe that were not taken, being in drawer. As it was pay day at the iron works, the robbers doubt less expected tC realize large sum of money, but it so happened that MT Skid more did not draw the money from the bank until after dinner. The work ap- pears to have been done by men who were familiar with the premises and with the habits of the office force.
