GALORE AGAIN HUNTS PoTEAT.
The Insane Frenchman Still Troubled
 by Hallucinations.

The Insane Frenchman Still Troubled
 by Hallucinations.
 About a year and half ago M. Ca lore, French bookbinder, created con- siderable excitement at Calvary Bap- tist church by threatening to assassi- nate the pastor, Rev E. M. Poteat To restrain him from executing his threats he was sent up to the Middletown asy- lum Last week he was discharged as cured. Whether cured or not, however, he is once again an annoyance to the church people and a danger to MT. Po- teat
 Last Sunday he visited the church. while the morning service was in prog ress, wearing huge pair of felt nit tens. They were about four times the size of a pair of boxing gloves and as he paraded through the audience he created quite scare. Many persons recognized him as the Frenchman who once imagined that he had 10 crucify the Rev Poteat. He passed into the gallery near the pulpit, and a gentle man connected with the church caught up to him just as he was taking off his mits and laying 8 paper-wrapped bun dle on a bench.
 He said he wanted to give MT. Poteat something. The gentleman told him that the minister Is in New Hampshire with his family, and that he could leave whatever he had for him. He refused to do this, and after some con- siderable persuasion was induced to go outside and wander off. He left his name as M. Galore ahd his address as 43 Broad street. It is prob able that he will be put under police surveillance, as he told the gentleman in the church that he intends to make the minister, the mayor of the city and other officials apologize for sending him to Middletown,
 l He talked very incoherently at times and remarked that he and MT. Poteat would run on the presidential ticket to- | gether.
 1 It will be remembered by many that l the Frenchman created considerable | fuss at the time he was sent up, and l he seems to have never been cured oi i the hallucination he possessed at that | time

MISS sIEBKE LEAVES UNCLE SAM,
Has Been an Expsrt oflcial and Her
 Place Not Easily Filled.


 Miss Henrietta Siebke, the popular young lady clerk in the registered let ter department of the postofiice, hand ed her resignation to Postmaster Beach some time ago, but it did not take ef- feet until yesterday.
 She has for ten years been clerk in charge of that department of the post office, and her management of that branch has won for her an enviable rep utation as an expert and painstaking official Many persons with meagre knowledge of English would have had a hard time in securing what was wanted by them put for her patience and lSindliness. Rumor has it that Miss Siebke resigns to become the wife of MT. E. c. Boyd of Hartford who was formerly assist ant postmaster.
 The marriage will take place in Octo- 1 Der.
 Miss Siebke's resigna ton was hand- ed to Postmaster Beach to take effect July l, but the postmaster prevailed upon her to remain until September in order that she might have the benefit I or the fifteen days leave of absence which Uncle Sam annually affords his employees.
 The vacancy occasioned by Miss Sieb- ke's resignation will necessitate some changes in the postoffice clerical force which have not yet been fully decided upon. Walter G. Doolittle, who has been night mailing clerk for the past ten years will in all probability succeed Miss Siebke
 l Michael J. Murphy, who stands high est on the list of male eligibles, will very likely be appointed to fill the ca caney in the stamping department, which will be caused by the transfer of Clerk Doolittle.
