HELP THAT COMES TOO LITE.

HELP TINT COMES TOO LATE.
With its tangles small and great,
Its weeds that smother the springiug flowers
And the hapless strifes with fate;
And the darkest day of its deSOlute days
Sees the help that comes too late.
All. woe for the word that is never said
Till the ear is too deaf to hear,
And woe for the lack to the fainting head
OF the ringing shout of cheer;
All. woe for the lag gard feet that tread
In the mournful wake of the bier.
What bOoteth help when the heart is numb?
What boOtcth II broken spar
OF love thrown out when the lips are dumb
And life's bark drifteth far,
Oh. far and fast from the alien past,
Over the moaning bar?
A pitlful thing the gift to-day
That is droSs and nothing worth,
Though if it had come but yesterday
1t had brmmed with sweet the earth
A fading rose in II death-cold hand,
That persisted in want and dearth.
Who fain would help in this world of ours?
Where sorrowflll steps must tall,
Bring help in time to the waning powers
Ere the bier is spread with the pail,
Nor send reserves when the flags are furlcd
And the dead beyond your call.
For battling most is this weary world,
With its tangleS small and great,
Its lonesome nights and its weary days
And its struggles fororn with fate,
Is that bitterest grief, too deep for tears,
OF the help that comes too late.

WILL PROBABLY DIE.
Danbury Police Officer Terribly Assault

Danbury Police Officer Terribly Assaulted.
 Danbury, Dec. 1.-The notorious tGrowler' gang broke out again to- might and assaulted Police Officer Flor ence B. Sullivan so brutally that he will probably die. This gang Is com- posed of a dozen or more toughs which terrorize their neighborhood. One or more of them Is in jail continually and their outbreaks are frequent. At Il o'clock tonight Officer Sullivan was standing on South street talking to Daniel McNamara, a saloonkeeper, when his attention was attracted by a disturbance down the street. He proceeded to investigate and upon ar irving at point in front of an old barn, used by the ''Growler'' gang as a rendezvous, he found five of the gang drinking from "a jug. He ordered them to move and was defied. The officer at once placed under arrest tShad" Kyle and started for the station house, whereupon the four pals of the arrest- ed tough bounced upon the officer, Knocked him down, beat him, kicking him and maltreated him in a horrible manner. It was found that the off, cer's skull is fractured in two places. Deep holes are gouged into his head with the jug and he is severely injured internally At midnight he was suf- fering from internal hemorrhages and was in very serious condition The members of the gang are all well known and it is expected that they will be arrested before morning. A number of years ago Officer Bradley was compelled to shoot down two of the gang in self defense.
 At 1 o'clock two of Sullivan's assail- ants were captured, "Shad" Kyle and James H. Heating. Kyle is a notorious crook, having served "a term in state prison for burglary and many jail sen tences. Heating is the son of ex-Chief of Police Michael J. Keating The in dured officer was removed to his hGme, where his condition is precarious. It required twenty-six stitches to close the cuts inflicted; the back of the head is pounded to a pulp; his face is bat tered so as to be almost unrecogniza- ble: the nose is broken and a finger was smashed It is barely possible that the man may recover, but his con- dftion is very serious.

AN INTERESTING ADDRESS
By W. H. Spear, the Temperance Evange- list, at Howard Avenue Baptist Church.

Mir w. H. Spear, the temperance evangelist, occupied the pulpit at How ard avenue Baptist church last night by special invitation of the pastor, Rev. George Nichols, and conducted an evangelistic service. This is the first time MT. Spear has been heard in any of the local pulpits in evangelistic work, though he has frequently been heard by large audiences here as a tenn perance speaker.
 The church was well filled, though the audience was not as large as it would undoubtedly have been had the an nouncement that MT. Spear was to con duct such service been more widely known.
 In opening his discussion MT. Spear took his text from Matthew il, 2S: Come unto Me all ye that weary and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" It would be very difficult to give g. report of this address, inter- spersed as 1t was with incidents of mis- sion work and pointed applications. Like many other gospel workers his discourses must be heard to be fully appreciated. He is difficult speaker to report, for in the midst of his argy4 ment he is sure to switch off upon some anecdote that will stir his al- dience or melt it to pathetic tender ness, then when he has accomplished that result he draws the application so closely to the subject in hand that the very incident becomes the culminat- tive point of the thought he desires to force home.
 MT. Spears discourse was interspers- ed with many incidents and anecdotes illustrative of the wonderful power of Gods love upon the human heart. He spoke from the depths of wide exper- fence in gospel mission work, in which his labors have been fruitfully blessed, and his words found responsive chord in the hearts of his auditors.

The Diphtheria Cases.

A child in Polish family by the name of Helminowski, living in the large tenement house at the corner of South and York streets, owned by Ed ward E. Malley, died yesterday morn ing from diphtheria and was quietly and quickly buried a few hours later. The mother of the deceased child keeps a small grocery store on the ground floor of the tenement and the two hun dred or more children who attend St. Johns parochial school have been in the habit of running into the place for candy and notions Another child and the father are also sick, but diphtheria in their cases has not yet developed. Health Officer Wright was at the house when the first child died He took un- usual precautions in disinfecting the room where the death occurred. There are four other families in the tenement, but he does not believe there is any danger of an epidemic or any cause for the residents becoming uneasy. The store is closed.
 The slight epidemic in the Ninth ward is gradually decreasing and pr. Wright expects soon to stamp it out of exist ence.

A MOST BRUTAL ASSAULT
ITALIAN ATTEMPTS TO OUTRAGE 4
 SIX TEAR OLD CHILD.

Citizens and Italians Connected With the
 Quarries at Stony Creek Are Greatly Ex.
 cited Over the Affair Which is a Most
 Dastardly one-Ths Brute is in the Jail in
 This City.
 Stony Creek. Dec. 1.-The Italians connected with the quarries here, and in ract all the citizens. are greatly excir- ed over dastardly attempt at rapa by an Italian quarryman on Friday night.
 ocliali Luigi, employed at the Brook lyn quarries, attempted to outrage Papina Barbari, the six-year-old daugh- ter of the night watchman at the quar- ries. At 6:30 Friday evening the little girl was in her dooryard near the quar- ries when Liugi happened along. Ha enticed her into a clump of bushes im the rear of her parents house and throwing her to the ground attempted to outrage her. N
 She screamed vehemently and her parents ran to her rescue. As soon as they discovered the situation they be- came almost demoniacal in their raga and quickly overpowered Luigi Bar- bari, held the man while the wifH hastened to the house and secured soma rope With this they tied the terrified Liugi to the fence and started for the house to get knives with which they in- tended to kill their daughters assailant.
 Uiugi screamed in terror. crying murder" so loudly that passers bN came to his assistance. The Barbaria were prevented from killing the man. as they undoubtedly would have dona had assistance not arrived. A con- stable was called and the Italian was arrested and taken to Branford, whera he was locked up.. The girl was over- come from fright and Dr. Townsend was called. She had been only slight- Fly injured, and her assailant had nod accomplished his purpose. It was nec- essary to call the physician again yes- terday. Liugi was arraigned in the Branford court yesterday afternoon and bound over to the superior court under bonds of $1,000 He was taken to tha county jail in New Haven this morn- ing.

THOMAS B. REED FOB SPEAKER.
The Republican Caucus Chooses Him by
 Reclamation

Washington Nov. 30-The scene to- Of representatives, where the republi- can caucus was held, was an animated one. As early as o'clock all the ap- breaches leading to the house were fill ed with crowds of people, and large number of representatives were on the floor full hour before the caucus met. It was apparent that if the number of callers at the several headquarters was an indication of the strength of the va rfous candidates, the combine" had the call. While General Henderson's headquarters, which were in the appro- priations committee room, were we'll filled with members, it was difficult to accommodate the tide of humanity which ebbed and flowed through the wide doorway of the committee room of ways and means, where Mcdowell and Glenn, the so-called combine" can didates for clerk and doorkeeper, were stationed. Among the callers were 142 representatives, and each of these as- sured Mcdowell and Glenn of their sup port. As 12S votes were sufficient to elect, even if the entire 244 republicans were present, 1t was plain that the lead ing members of the McDowell-Glen1 ticket were certain of enough votes to win on the first ballot.
 The caucus settled down to work promptly at o'clock, with Mir. Hooker of New York, the secretary of the eau GUS, in the chair. The first test of the relative strength of the McDowell tick ct and it's opponents was shown in the vote on the election of chairman of the caucus. MT. William A. Stone of Penn sylvanfa, who has been the principal manager for Mcdowell and those asso- ciated with him, nominated the vet eran Ohioian, General Charles H. Gros- venor, while MT. Deliver of Iowa, who represented the Henderson forces, pro- posed the name of MT. Henderson of Iowa. At the conclusion of the roll call the vote stood 155 for Grosvenor and 73 for Henderson. This showed the pres ence of 22S members and it disclosed the fact that the McDowell forces had not overrated their strength.
 MT Hopkins of Illinois placed Mir. El- lis of Oregon in nomination for secre- tary of the caucus for the Fiftyfourth congress Mir. Mercer of Nebraska nominated MT Hooker of New York. MT Ellis was elected by vote of 1Ss to T.
 On motion of MT. Grow of Pennsyl- vania Thomas B. Reed of Maine was nominated for speaker by exclamation.
 On motion of MT. Payne of New York a committee of three was appointed to conduct Mir Reed to the hall The committee consisted of MT. Payne, Gal usha A. Grow of Pennsylvania and MT. Cannon of Illinois.
 MT Reed. on entering the hall, was loudly applauded.
 At the demoratic caucus Mir. Crisp was nominated without dissenting

At the First Baptist church last ev- ering the Rev. George H. Fillian de- livered an interesting address on the Armenian Atrocities He spoke of the historical importance of Armenia as one of the earliest Christian coun- tries, and of the high intelligence and advancement of it's people, Five years ago the Mohammedans decided that the only way to convert the country to their religion was to exterminate the people from it. Twenty years ago there were forty millions of people there; to- day there is only 4,000,O00, and there are 500,00O homeless and destitute people in that once happy and prosperous land

THB REDEMPTION
By the Gounod Society Close to the First Part of tho Musical Season. Sale of Seats,

By the Gounod Society Impressive Close
 to the First Part of tho Musical Season.
 Sale of Seats,
 The first part of the musical season, brief but brilliant, will close with the performance of Gounods magnificent oratorio, "The Redemption" to be giv- en by the Gounod society at the Hy- perion theater on Tuesday afternoon and evening of next week, with the assistance of eminent soloists from abroad, the Boston orchestra and other complete accessories, The sale of seats will begin on Wednesday morn- ing of this week at o'clock at the Hyperion box office.
 The soloists who have been engag ed are all artists of the widest reputa- tion on both sides of the Atlantic and will form one of the most brilliant and satisfactory quartets the society has presented in some time. They are as follows:
 Mrs. Corinne Moore-Lawson, soprano; Miss Gertrude May Stein, contralto; Miss Lily Welch, mezzo-soprano; MT. w. H. Rieger, tenor, and pr. Carl Dufft basso.
 Of Mrs. Lawson, the Baltimore Am erican says: Mrs. Lawson proved her. self a revelation as a soprano. The fame of her beautiful voice had pre- ceded her. but her listeners were hardly prepared for all of it's point of excel lence. Its quality is rich and refined; its compass large; its force even, from the top to the bottom of it's range. Her intonation is perfect, and she sings with the confidence ease, and general correctness that marks the thorough musician. Never before in the history of the Oratorio society has a soprano given such universal satisfaction as did Mrs. Lawson in her glorious rendering of the part of Elsie" in the Golden Legend
 | Of Dr. Dufft the Springfield Republi- can says Dr. c. F. Outfit is unques- | tionably one of the finest baritones on the American stake.
 The Minneapolis Tribune says: To Dr. Dufft fell the Hons share of ap- plause, and at the close of the aria, "Why Do the Nations" audience, chorus and principals burst into a tu- mutt of applause.
 The orchestra for the occasion will be unusually large and will be further augmented by four trumpeters special 1 ly engaged, who will assist in the won derful chorus, Unfold, Ye Portals Ev- ernasting," They will be stationed in one of the top boxes and will render the impressive prelude to the words But Who Is He the King of Glory?" | MT. w. Schneider from Boston will be l the harpist. Gounod introduces the harp in several numbers very beauti- 1 fully.
 1 Preparations for the performance of ''The Redemption" characterized by Gounod as his masterpiece, have been going on for weeks and it is prophesied l that the society will surpass even it's former triumphs.
 l The last of the final rehearsals will take place tonight at Harmonic hall at 7:45 It is imperative that every member be in his or her place. as no excuse save that of sickness can pos sibly be accepted. The general public will not be admitted; only holders of complimentary and escort cards,

MR. PorEAT ON NO LICENSE.
At Calvary Baptist Church Last Night.

At Calvary Baptist Church Last Night
 In view of to-morrow's election, the Rev. MT. Poteat of the Calvary Bap- tist church preached a vigorous ser mon in favor of no license.
 He based his remarks on the fifth chapter of Exodus, where Pharaoh says in answer to Moses request to let the people go, Who is the Lord that should hearken unto Him. Am I not Pharaoh? I know not the Lord and will not let the people go.'
 When I hear kings talking like this I want to tell them to listen for orders from headquarters and when I see sa- loonkeepers flaring their red light in the face of moral reform I want to tell them. too. to listen for orders from headquarters.
 On leading out the children of Israel advice of Pharaoh nor consult what was for the material interest of the peo- pie, but went ahead and did what was right.
 That is what We must do at next Tuesdays election. In some matters it is possible to take half measures and to make compromises, but not in moral matters.
 I shall vote for no license because will not vote to permit saloons to sell liquor, and in voting to close the saloons I mean not only the dives of Oak street, but the club houses as well. In reply to those who favor li- cense because of the income from the tax, I reply if you are going to tax why not tax them in proportion to their burden upon society,"
