THE WORLD OF SPORT.

Hogriever is. 8 long way of from giving Hamilton anything like chase for the tsolen base record. The Philadelphian leads the Cincinnati man by over 40 bases.
 Sporting Life's St Louis correspondent writes: With Connor's retirement the game will lose one of its greatest expo nents. He was as much a character in the sport as "King" Kelly. Anson and other great players His individuality was more pronounced in New York, the scene of his greatest successes. He was the most popular player with the masses who ever wore New York uniform. He was always popular also in this city with the rahk and file of the patrons and particularly with the management. A more honest, con- scientious player than Roger Connor never wore a uniform. He always took the best care of himself and saved his money. He has much valuable real estate in Water bury and is considered to be worth nearly $5O,000, which he. has made entirely through base ball. Connor is not far from forty years of age. He has earned an honorable retirement from the ball field.
 Roger Connor and Jack Glasscock, the leagues oldest veterans, next to Anson. re- tired within twosweeks of each other. Klobedanz made two home runs and single in yesterdays Fall River-Brockton game.

SHELBY ARRESTED.

A We'll Known Insurance Agent Of
 Waterbury and Naugatuck Charged
 With Granting Rebates.
 Insurance Commissioner Betts has caused the arrest of E. o. Seeley of this city, agent in this state of the Fidelity Mu- tual Life Insurance company of Philadel- phia, an assessment company. The charge against him is violation of the anti-rebate law, and tae insurance commissioner thinks he has ample evidence to convict him.
 Seeley has an office at No 6S Bank street and lives in Naugatuck. For q month past he has been operating in New Britain, forming what is called s'local board. ]" These ''local boards" are formed by this and other companies to give the com- panies local standing among those who are solicited to buy insurance, but they have nothing whatever to do with the management of the brsin ss. Seeley was making arfange1nents with number of we'll known New Britain people to act on his local board and the agreement was that they should receive rebate of twenty five per cent on all the premiums on their own insurance and the same on new busi- ness obtained through use of their names
 MT Betts put the matter in the hands of Mitchell, Hungerford < Bartlett. his attor- neys. and City Attorney Gussman issued writ Saturday for Seeley's arrest. Chief of Police Johnson came to Waterbury Sat urday evening. but got here too late to find Seeley in his office. He went to Nau- gatuck and found Seeley at his home. He was taken to the police station in Water bury and brought to New Britain early Sunday morning. He was afterwards re- leased on bonds furnished by Willis Cor bin of New Britain, who was to be 8 mem- ber of the local board of that city. The case was called this morning. but was continued for one week, bonds beH placed at $1 ,000.

ST JOSEPH'S SOCIETY.

A Membership of 267 and Over $500
 iM the Treasury.
 St Joseph's T A. society held an enthu- siastic meeting yesterday afternoon and passed upon several matters of intert st to the organiz 4tion. Very few societies can boast of such a steady growth as has at- tened this body. The present member ship is 267, making net gain of 200 since August 1894 The finances must have been we'll handled. After fitting up their suit of rooms with furnishings of the most modern design, including two pool tables and plano, there is an unexpended bal ance of $500 in the treasury. and this. no doubt, will be increased from receipts of the excursion which the society has arranged for Saturday, August 10. Tickets are Sell ing rapidly for the affair and to add to the crowd which will undoubtedly leave from this city, 200 members from St Francis T. A, B's of Torrington have chartered specia! train for the occasion and will join their fellow workers at the 6:3O a. m. train at the Naugatuck depot.
 What lends additional charm to St Jo- seph's society and draws tte young blood into it's ranks, is the interest taken in base ball At yesterdays meeting it was decided to push this feature for all it was worth and use every effort to put nine in the field that can whip anything in the state. With this end in view the following were appointed to have absolute control over the ball team: John c. Altman. Michael Car ney, Patrick Shields. Charles Dalton and Dennis Lahey. William J. Bowen. John J. Shields, Thomas Luddy and Jas Mcknight were elected to fill vacancies on the stand ing and entertainment committees.
 The members of the society attribut, mach of it's success to the influence of the local Catholic clergy aud especially to the chaplain, Rev Father Lynch, who has been untiriug in his efforts to place it on l 8 solid foundation The public, too, and the different ladies and gentlemen of the city who have the ability to entertain an audience have done much to place the so- ciety where it is to-day, the open meetings I in St Patrick's hall being source of rev. enue which could not be obtained in any other manner. These exercises will be confirmed ss soon as the weather will permit, and the entertainment committee expects to make them more interesting and instructive than ever

WITH A DULL KNIFE.

Edward Bowling Almost Killed In a
 Saloon Flight on Railroad EIill Street.
 A stabbing affray which fortunately may not result fatally took place in John Shan nahan's saloon on Railroad Hill street on Saturday evening about six o'clock. Ed ward Bowling, who lives with his wife and two small children on Wagner alley. and of being sthobo." were in the saloon. Shannahan asked Bowling to tend bar for him while he went home for his supper.
 Two stories are told of what followed. Bowling says he asked Lynch to have g drink and Lynch replied that he did not drink with Turks. This brought on an ar gument and the two mSu came to blows. Lynch drew knife and stabbed Bowling in the breast. Bowling knocked Lynch down and began to kick him.
 In the meantime the Shannahans. father and son, ran in and tried to have Bowling stop his kicking. Bowling said: "He has stabbed me-" '.Then kill him. " said James Shannahan. Lynch again brought his knife into play and cut deep wound in Dowling's right leg Bowling then let up and Lynch made his escape. He was pur- sued by the Shannahans, who captured him and turned him over to Special Officer Fitzgerald. 4@..s
 Bowling fell to, the floor from loss of blood Medical Examiner Axtelle was sent for. Dr Dubuc arrived before him and stopped the flow of blood. When DI Axtelle arrived cursory examination was made of the wounds. The man had bled profuse1y and the floor of the saloon was slippery with blood The first wound was on the right breast. three inches long. Tie weapon had struck the ribs, but had moi
 entered the pleural cavity. The wound on | the leg was an ugly one. It was five inches long and three deep, and the femoral ar- tery had just been mlssed. The man was
 covered with blood from head to foot, and
 presented ghastly sight. He was placed on door and carried to lis home. Dl Axtelle has seldom attended a more sick. ening case. The wounds were sewed uI
 and the man made as comfortable as was ! possible under the circumstances. Tester
 day morning he was removed to the hospi
 tale on the advice of Dr Axtalle.
 ! A common jack knife was found or
 Lynch when taken to the station. Thit morning Dr Axtelle said that the wounds
 were not fatal, that in all probability tn,
 wound on the thigh, which was the mos dangerous, would have to be re-opened
 The cuts were more of rip than a clear
 cut and the knife must have been yer,
 dull. The man might be out in week O
 ten days.
 Lynch showed the wounds he had re
 ceived to the court this morning. Hi face was marked and there were bumps ol his head, and one of his hands was badl,
 swollen. Dr Axtelle said 1t was the gen
 eral opinion that Bowling was the offend CT. The case was adjourned until Mon
 day under bonds of $500.

Glad to See Him.


 An American politician, commenting on the fact that ill America we always expect a man to get up and say some thing on a public occasion, adds, "But the silent men win." That is not al ways the case, but it is a fact that many man of worth and mettle hates to be ''evermore talking"
 It is said that Won Moltke was ''si- lent ill seven languages. Before the opening of a striking campaign he was walking the streets with head depressed when some busybody approached him, determined to extort from him word in regard to current events.
 ''How are matters coming on, gener- a1?' he asked
 "Well," said the general, "my cab bages are coming on very we'll, but my potatoes want rain.
 It is Q popular mistake that famous men like no topic of conversation so well as that of their own renown. Not long ago celebrated novelist was the guest of honor at brilliant reception.

Finally timid man was presented to him, who said, with an apologetic air:
 'I'm ashamed to confess it, but haven't read one of your books. ''
 The novelist bent forward, look oi relief and joy irradiating his face. He placed both hands on the newcomer < shoulders.
