IT IS A FACT

Now generally known and conceded by
all oculists and educated physicians that
certain sO-called ''eye diseases" of years
gone by, as well as many cases of chronic
headache, neuralgia and nervous prOstra-
tion in children, as well as in adults, are
due to a defective construction of the eye
ball, or to an irregulari1y of one or more
of its 5ocusing powers. These deficien-
cieS many times can only be discovered
and remedied by a careful and thorough
examination at the hands of a competent
optician.

SENATOR BERRY's GOOD WORK

United States Senator j, H. Ber-
ry, is in the city fresh from the
great Northwest, from where he
has been making speeches in behalf
of the Democratic state and local
tickets. He has recently made a
thorough canvass of Madison coun-
ty, and 1t is believed his efficient
work will be seen in the redemption
of that county from its Republican
leaning. Senator Berry believes
Arkansas will go Democratic by a
greatly increased majority on Sep
tember Z. He leaves today for
White county to make several
speeches. Next Friday night he
will speak in Fort Smith.-Arkan-
sas Gazette.

There is more catarrh in this sec
tion of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. Doctors pronounced it a
local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing
to cure with local treatment, pro
nounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be constitutions
al disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by f.
j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally in
doses from ten drops to a teaspoon,
full. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system.

4DNIR4BhY MANAGED
And Scored Brilliant Success-Captain
 Thomas Lecture in Merlden.

a
 Thomas' Lecture in Merlden.
 Meriden, Feb. 26-Captain D. S. Thomas illustrated balloon lecture at the First Congregational church has been the tea-table- talk of Meriden for several weeks. It was to raise funds for the Ladies Benevolent society and proved a financial success. The ladies managed the entire affair and deserve the credit of getting up the only real paying enterprise the church has had for years. The officers of the society visited New Haven in January and were present in the audience when Captain Thomas made his first big hit before the Young Mems Christian asso- citation in Warner hall.
 The audience tonight was composed of the elite of Meriden-men and women who would not think of attending an opera or dramatic entertainment dur ing Lent. When Captain Thomas step- ped out before the curtain in full even ing dress he was greeted with generous applause; that is to say, the handclap- ping was quite as generous as is per- missible in an orthodox church. To our local newspaper men he looked fa- Iniliar, for Captain Thomas made his annual pilgrimage to Meriden for years as press agent for the Great Moral Show, until Mir. Barnum's litigation with our authorities about the amount of damage done by drove of runaway elephants drove Mr. Barnum and his J for
 The speaker does not get well under way before the audience becomes sat isfied that he is thoroughly familiar with his subject. His descriptions are so graphic and yet so plain and intelli- gible that the audience seemed compan- ions in his long voyages. He seems to value dates and circumstances as es- sential as the incident itself, and his many strange adventures are made still more attractive by the names of those who participated in them
 I have no words to describe the ab- sorbing interest of this latest addition to the lecture field. One can lil1en it only to the pathetic episodes of soci- ety drama, where some famous emo- tionaI actress is holding the audience spellbound, or to the Vaccinations of tragedy, where the spectator is held breathless, as it were, until the curtain drops.
 Tonight the silence was so deep that a whisper would have seemed sacri- lege.
 Meriden is quite familiar with stere- opticon exhibitions, but no such calci- nm light effects have been seen here as Captain Thomas produces with his powerful instruments. The thrilling views of ballooning adventures were made still more realistic by the silillful manner in which the operator flashed the pictures upon the screen.

MR. NErrAEroN's PICTURES.
The Private View at Eord's Art Rooms
 Yesterday Afternoon.


 The Private View at Fords Art Rooms
 Yesterday Afternoon.
 MT Walter Nettleton, who is holding an exhibition of some of his work at the art rooms of MT. George H. Ford's store, gave private view Of the col lection from until o'clock yesterday afternoon. This is an unusual experi- ence for New Haven, this exhibition with a private view" to which only the chosen are invited and it savors quite of the metropolis, Many people took advantage of the opportunity of fered them of seeing the pictures and congratulating MT. Nettleton on his success in the art world.
 MT. Nettleton is we'll known in town. He was in college several years ago, graduating in 'SS. He is a brother of Mrs. Professor E. G. Bourne of Mans field street. Professor and Mrs. Bourne assisted in receiving yesterday. The pictures are hung in the middle of the three art rooms and the lighting has been very well managed, although the place is hardly large enough for the best effects. There are thirty pictures in all They are with the exception of two portraits studies of the picturesque Breton coast and it's peasant people. There are several marines, of which No 2, Looking Over the Reef, Moon light" is particularly beautiful. MT Nettleton is pupil of the best French schools and the effect of his training is seen in his work. There is cer- tain qaulity in the brush work which comes from the Paris atelers. MT. Nettleton has been painting in Brittany for the past three years and expects to return again in little while The pictures which he has shown here have all been done in small corners of the Breton coast, the region about F'inis- terre Pontaven and Gr1ix. The same mode appears in several different pie lures and the same interior. Visitors at the worlds fair will remember The Dark Interior which attracted consid- erable attention there. The largest of the group is December Sunshine,' ' which won Mention Honorable in the Salon of 1892. Some of the land scapes have q certain ametrystine qual- ity that we have come to associate with Cazin and his school As for the two portraits visitors to the last portrait show in New York will recall the beau tiful study of Mrs. D. F. Griswoid of New York, which was called "Lilacs.'' , The other is a childs portrait, that lit tie Cecle Thompson, which MT. A. C. Thompson of Brookline, Mass, has loaned. It is impossible to do justice to MT Nettleton's work in this brief no- tice. Every one should see the pie lures for himself. They will be on free view beginning to-day until the seventh of March. Most of the works are on sale although some of them, like the DOT traits, are loaned for this occasion.

BERLIN DEPOT BURNED.

Totally Destroyed Last Eisht-Loss Sl0,-
 OO0-Erected Only Three Years Ago-No
 Insurance.
 Berlin. Feb. 2e.--The handsome press ed brick passenger depot of the Con solidated road at this station was com- pletely gutted by fire tonight. Noth- ing but the four walls remain stand ing. The spacious platforms surround ing the depot were slowly consumed and at 10 o'clock were still burn ing. The fire started at 7,15 in the bag gage room and made rapid headWay, which foretold the utter destruction of the building from the start There is no water service here and the flames were allowed to take their course. The employees of the company were only able to save the few packages of the Adams Express company stored inside. Passenger traffic was delayed for some time by the contlagration. The limited express bound for New York was de- layed nearly an hour and the mail train about half an hour They were finally enabled to proceed by making the cir
  The first thing that Yardmaster Me- Keon did when he arrived on the scene was to give orders to have all the freight cars standing near the burn ing building hauled to Q place of safety The station was in charge of Ticket Agent Phillips at the time and two night watchmen were also about the building. Depot Master N. $. Thrasher was not on duty. The telegraph opera tor who was in the building says that the fire originated in the furnace room underneath the baggage room. Several automatic tanks, from which kerosene lamps were supplied, were in the bag gage room and when the heat caused them to explode the fire was given fresh impetus Superintendent Platt stated that he did not think that the building was insured, as but few of the isolated stations are. The'loss will be from $10,- 900 to $12,0o0. The depot was built three years ago.

LGNrNN SERVICES.

The United Services uL trinity Largey At
 tended Last Night-Ths Rev. G, R. Van
 Do Water, D. D., of New York, Preached
 Powerful sermon.
 The second of the course of United Lenten services at Trinity church was largely attended last night. The preacher was the Rev. George R. Van De Water, D. D., rector of the Church of the Incarnation, New York city. The reverend gentleman's text was part of Certain Man Went Down, and Ger tain Samaritan Came to Him." From this theme he preached an eloquent and impressive sermon in the first part of which he showed how the devil treat ed a sinner and in the second how the Saviour saved men. In the course of his remarks, he said: 'All sin was a descent. Man was happy until he went down into S!u. Had the man in the text never left Jerusalem and gone down to Jericho he would not have been robbed. When a man sins he loses something. He cannot sin with out being robbed. The devil is the robber, and after robbing him he strips him, then wounds him and leaves him half dead" Speaking of how Christ saves a sinner, he said: Close proxim- ity to priest and Levite would not save him. He must come of himself to Christ. Eternal life could only be ob- tained by coming In contact with one that was divine. The great secret of salvation was letting the Saviour save you.' The speaker had yet to find the one who had tried this method and failed 'The strength of Christian" he said, Hay in his love, and the most he could offer was a sober, righteous and Godly life"

LAWRENCE WH1TyEY,s DEPTH.

A Member of the Shelf. Senior Class and
 Well Known in New Haven-OnIy Short
 Illness.
 The sudden death of Lawrence Whit ney of the senior class of the Sheffield Scientific school, and a resident of this city, occurred at the home of his fath- CT, Stephen Whitney, 4O5 Whitney ave- nue, early yesterday morning. He had been ill only few days, having been taken down with the measles. He was, however, getting along nicely until Tuesday, when he suffered 8 relapse and pneumonia set in. He then grew rapidly worse until the end.
 Young MT. Whitney was a member of the Yale fraternity familiarly known as the "T Company and lived at the society house, at the corner of Wall and College streets. He was well known in college and was exceedingly popular, not only in his own class, but with all students by whom he was known.
 Before entering Yale Mir. Whitney was we'll known as one of the most prominent young men of the Hopkins grammar school. He was a member of lilt AuOlbctll CicNSh Ol LiidL TUT two years, managing it during his sen- for year in the school. He was a mem Der of the Pi Sigma Tau society of the Hopkins grammar school.
 Besides his parents he leaves a sister, Miss Hannah Whitney, and a brother. Harry, who has just returned from a trip to Australia.
 4 meeting of the senior class of the scientific department was held yester- day afternoon and appropriate resolu- tions of sympathy and condolence were passed,
