HANDSOME WINDOWS.

That New Haven is an intensely pa
triotic city is shown by the fact that
patriotism is even reflected in the busi-
ness houses of the city. The windows
of the large dry goods stores are evil
dence of this In nearly every one
pieces have been arranged representing
the scenes in commemoration of which
Memorial day is observed. One of the
finest decorations along the street is
that in the windows of the Home Fur
nishing company at 755-l6o Chapel
street. The window is a triumph of the
art of decoration and was designed by
Frank l. Booth, manager of the COM
pany.
The windows of the big dry goods
store of Even Mcintyre & Co. is an
other very fine Memorial day scene, but
of a different order. In one window are
the figures of a widow and her little
girl at the tomb of dead soldier. On
the tomb is the inscription, In MEM
ory of our beloved heroes, 1S61-1S96.''
at NIalley, Neely & Co. s store in the
large window at the corner of Chapel
and Temple streets is represented a
scene which fully bears out the wide
spread reputation of that firm for beau
tiful window decoration. The figure of
woman stands in the center of the
scene with outstretched hands resting
upon two stands of the national colors.
A bank of resebuds is at the woman's
feet, while the background is formed by
stacked rifles. A mass of red, white
and blue forms the floor of the window
and is also draped from the ceiling. 1t
was gazed at and admired by hundreds
CT people last evening.

GOV. COFFIN NO CANDIDATE
HE rs NOT IN THE RACE ZOE THE
RE-ELECTION TaIS YEAR.


The Hartford Courant Comes Out with a
Statement From One who, it is Said,
Knows What He is Talking About on the
Situation.
Hartford, May 29.-The Hartford
Courant will publish tomorrow the fol-
lowing letter from source that it
knows to be trustworthy and respon-
sible:
'To the Editor of the Courant:
AS near friend of Governor Coffin
and with his knowledge and consent
request you publicly to make known
the fact that he is not a candidate for
reelection. Those of US who enjoy his
personal confidence know that he has
not at any time entertained desire for
a second term, but that on general
principals he is hostile to that idea.
'As an excellent business method
and the popular strength of his clean
administration have become more ana
more apparent we have hoped that his
attitude with reference to renomina-
ton might change, and so his friends
have for months past been urging him
not to formally withdraw himself.
"Now, however, in view of the ap-
proach of the time when it will need to
be known definitely who are candidates
and because of the many groundless
reports which are being circulated as
to his motives and purposes he insists
that it is due not only to himself, but to
all parties and interests involved, that
it should be clearly and emphatically
stated that he is not under any cir
cumstances to be considered candi-
date"

YALE BLUE.

Yale students are weary regarding
the outcome of the track games in New
York to-day. Most of the Yale athe-
letes, who are to compete, are in poor
condition. and it is feared that the blue
will not make its usually good showing.
Two of the best men on whom Yale
had been counted most, have been
ruled out and cannot play, because of
low standing in their studies. An eff
fort will be made, however, to win
enough events to give Yale the greater
number of points, though but little
money can be had to back the blue in
the contest.

| Public Buildings Thrown Open for the
Accommodation OF the Destitute and
Were Crowded to Their Fullest Capacity
-Robbing Of the Dead-one of the
3houis Was Killed and Badly Mangled.
st. Louis, May 2s.-Hundreds Of
homeless persons slept I'm the open air
last night. The public buildings were
thrown open for the accommodation Of
the destitute and were crowded to their
full capacity. Food for the hungry was
furnished literally by citizens and by
keepers of restaurants. All night and
thls morning thousands surrounded the
temporary morgues and heartrending
scenes We're enacted as relatives came
TO take away the remains of their loved
ones and parties seeking to Identify
some of the unknown dead made tha
rounds of the silent forms. Hundreds
OF furniture wagons, carts, and in MANY
cases puggles and private vehicles are
being brought into requisition this
morning to move away whatever per-
sonal property could be dug out of the
runs or could be gotten from the lower
rooms of residences.

been held in East st. Louis, the yerdictss
being in similar terms.

trampish looking individual volun-
teered to assist in the search. During
the night four bodies We're taken from
the debris and laid side by side. Then.
according to citizen, the volunteer
proceeded to rifle the clothing Of the
dead. He was caught in the act by one
of the searchers, who felled him with a
brick. Then with cries Of Lynch the
thief" the entire party Of searchers fell
upon him, and with kicks and blows the
ghoul was killed and badly mangled.
The body was conveyed to the morgue
under the supposition that it was that
OF victim of the power house wreck.
There were a number of funerals Of
victims Of the tornado to-day, but rel

to take advantage of the fact that to-
morrow is Decoration day and half
