From the United Workers Society to Those
 Who Have Not Contributed to Its Support
 This Year.
 The usual work of this well known society, the United Workers, viz, caring for the sick poor preparing sewing for poor women and maintaining a boys club, has been carried on this year with greater caution and stricter economy than ever before The ladies of the ex- ecutive committee have given liberaily not only their time and abilities, but also of their means, and as far as possi- ble of the means of their personal friends. Nevertheless, the funds are so nearly exhausted, that without support from the public the work cannot go on The boys club, an institution which benefits the entire community by the care it extends over depraved boys, will have to be closed unless help Is immediately Forthcoming The boys club Is not merely resort where. boys are kept away from vicious haunts during the evening, and taught the value of cleanliness and industry, but the superintendent during the day is active at the city court trying to pre- vent boys who have started on a career of crime from sinking any deeper in in- fanny and rescuing boys who are not guilty, but are in danger of being pun ished for others misdoings. Only last with three young runaways. all dirty, tattered and torn, arrested for tres pass on cars" were taken by our super intendent from the court room to the Charities building, given a breakfast, for which they paid by saving wood, and were then returned to their homes in Sprinxfeld, Mass, but for his timely services they would have been sent to jail, and would now belong to the crim- inal class Every boy in trouble has his case investigated, and needed as- sistance given.
 Will the public help to carry on this work or must the club be closed and the superintendent dismissed during the vacation months when, more than at any other time, his services are needed? For three years the United Workers society has not given any large enter tainment to get money from the public It has tried to rely upon annual sub scriptions for the necessary whereWith- al. but new subscribers do not take the places of those who have passed away, and it has relied in vain. Money is the one thing needful in the pres- ent emergency. Games and boys cloth ing are always acceptable. Contribu- tions may be sent to the chairman of the boys club committee, Miss Adelaide Morse 237 York street.

 "There never was Trilby, and never could be. There are no such good women as our wives and mothers in the modern novel, The surer test of a really good novelist is the power to bring our acquaintance a large and varied company of real living men and women. The book that is wholesome for the man of forty may not be at all wholesome for the girl of fourteen, I should say that the surest test of nor ality in a novel is It's truth. Does it render the facts of life faithfully? find fault with most of our recent fic- tion that is either unable or unwilling to give Us broad, truthful pictures of life in normal and healthy conditions. :"

THE NEW ENGLAND ROAD
ACQUIRES THE PROVIDENCE AND
 SPRING FIELD RAILROAD.

But the New England Has Been Operating
 This Line for ouite While and the
 Transfer Is no Great Deal.
 Concerning the appended dispatch Consolidated railroad authorities here say that undoubtedly the Providence and Springfield railroad has been ac- quired in the interest of the New Eng land road and that the said acquire ment is further step toward the full completion of the reorganization of that road. The New England road has for some time past operated this Provi- dence and Springfield road, under a lease, and circulars in reference to the consummation of this transfer have been in circulation for two or three weeks past, The dispatch referred to Is as follows;
 Boston, June 10.-The Boston News Bureau says of the reported acquisi- tfon of the Providence and Springfield road by the New York, New Haven and Hartford;
 The Providence and Springfield stock holders have until the close of business June 12 to accept 800 per share from the Union Trust company of Providence, to whom the large stockholders have sold at this price.
 President Vaughan, who is in Boston to-day, says this stock has in no way been bought in the interest of the New Haven Railroad company. It was bought by parties close to the New England reorganization committee and will be turned over. probably at a reduced rate, to the New England when that road has been fully reOrgan- ized.
 Interest on the $750,O0O first mort gage bonds have never been in default, although such statement has been published. There are 517, ,45O shares of stock outstanding, out of an author ized issue of 600,000 shares.
 President Vaughan recently resigned from the New England road because as president of the Providence and Springfield he could not conscientiously act as director ofsthe New England and do justice to the Providence and Springfield when the time came for readjustn1ent of rentals of leased lines.

A State Summer Home on the Banks of the
 Housatonic.
 A party of ladies seeing the necessity of establishing and maintaining a state summer home where female employees of stores, shops, offices, etc., can obtain board at a nominal cost, have secured and rented a beautiful spot, two miles and a half from shelton, Conn, on the Housatonic river. The honest wage earners appreciate the recuperation of fered and are looking forward to July f, when, if the assistance required is forthcoming, they surely can be grat- flied. Therefore, we ask the space in your columns for this notice feeling sure that it may reach the hearts of many generous people, who will send either subscriptions or cash or furnish ings for the home-immed
 While those who contribute to this worthy charity are spending their sum mers in restful places, they can have the great pleasure of knowing that they have helped to provide, perhaps, an equally restful spot for many weary working girls whose homes are in hot, dusty city, and their short vacations are anything but recuperative.
 Contributions of cash or notifications of furnishings can be sent to the presi- dent, Mrs. William Fl. Thomson, 121 Grand avenue, or to Mrs. Samuel A. York, New Haven, Conn. All contribu- tions will be gratefully received.

A Sad Fate.


 The Waterbury American gives the following particulars of the death of Mrs. Jonas J. Taylor, aged twenty three, of No. 68 East Clay street Waterbury, who met with a sudden death Saturday night at the home of her father, Eugene M Gully, in Win sted, where she was visiting.
 The American In May 1894, published an account of Mrs. Taylor's disease which, in a measure. baffled the skill of physicians and surgeons. Although it had been growing in severity for some time, 1t was suddenly aggravated by fit of violent laughter, which produced paralysis of the throat. While tenn porary relief was secured for time the dreaded disease rapidly grew. Her throat has at times been in such con dition that she has almost starved to death twice. She was under treatment at a hospital for some time. but very little could be done to help her. Mrs. Taylor was about Winsted Saturday af- ternoon and as happy as could be ex- pected under the circumstances. Since her misfortune she had been obliged to take nourishment in a liquid form and with her head thrown back. She was doing this Saturday, when the food caught in her throat and strangled her almost instantly.
 Mrs. Taylor was of sweet, quiet, gentle disposition, and loved by all who knew her. The blow is sad one to her husband, to whom she had been married four years.
 The funeral services will be held at Trinity church, this city, Wednesday, at 3:45 D. m.
