EVILS OF GAMBLING.

Ex-Professionals Apply for a License
to Show Up Evils OF Gambling
Mayor Refers Them to DR.. Smyth.
Mayor Farnsworth had a brace of
novel professional men calling on him
yesterday. They wanted to obtain a
license to open a show in New Haven
to expose the evils and devices of gam
blers Already the men, one of whom
said he was an x-professional, had
called on Superintendent of Police
Smith to obtain such license, but not
obtaining much encouragement they
took the matter to the mayor.
Mayor Farnsworth gave the matter
due consideration, especially to their
statements about being endorsed by
DR.. Parkhurst, and partly in jest the
mayor referred them to his friend, Rev.
DIR. Newman Smyth, saying that DR..
Smyth was the Parkhurst of New Ha-
ven. AS for the license, the mayor
says he will consult with the superin-
tendent of police before he decides
whether or not to issue it. He says he
does not think that with all the effort
that has been made to reform New
Haven that there is any need of outside
teaching TO keep the city's citizens
away from the ways that are dark and
the tricks that are vain.

Charles Van Lue Has a Tough Time
Walks Four Miles With a Bad Foot
Wound-Sinks Down Exhausted in
Sight of Home.
Charles Van Lue, residing at 3S Hud-
son street. this city, d laborer employ
ed in Allingtown, had hard time of 1t
recently. While engaged in cutting
wood with a gang hired by Mr.. Farm
ham, in some mysterious way he cut
his foot, 1t was bad wound, the axe
cutting between the toes clear to the
instep. To make a bad matter worse,
there was no means of carrying him
home, and Van Lue had to walk four
miles to his residence. When almost
there he fell down in a dead faint Dr.
Jackson was called and dressed the
wound. Doubtless Mr.. Van Lue will
be all right in few days, if blood pois-
oning does not set in, which is very
much feared to be possible, owing to
the long exposure of the wound to the
cold and dirt of the long journey home.
Van Lue says some of the other men
cut him. accidentally of course There
were several working on the same log,
but the men insist that he did it him
self.
Van Lue was married only week
ago Tuesday.

Grand Opera House.

Another triumph for the cinemato-
graphic, that wonderful machine for
producing moving figures, which stands
alone to-day as the champion and the
most expensive apparatus and best of
its kind. There are only two of these
machines now running in the United
States. Mr.. Keith recognizing it's SUI
perior powers, has one now running in
his finest theater in Boston, and the
other Is now at the Grand opera house,
where it is seen by crowded houses
daily, everybody remarking upon the
excellence Of It's pictures, which have
been produced at an expense that puts
local pictures In the shade. There is
fascination about the exhibition of the
cinematographe that makes one 10th
to go after the close, and also excites
a desire to again see the pictures.
To-day an entire new set of views
will be exhibited, but at the urgent re-
quest of many patrons some of those
which proved popular during the first
part Of the week will be retained in adj
dition to the new ones, making the
greatest display yet seen here.
Katie Rooney's Greater New Workers
is the other great attraction that forms
the double bill, presented this week at
the Grand opera house. 1.-The Million
aires Reception" which opens the per-
Torrance, introduces the whole COM
pany. During the operetta specialties
are introduced by Katie Rooney; oper-
attic selection by Adelina Roaffino, the
beautiful Italian prima donna, support
ed by Bryant and Cleaver and Wilbur
and Warrell. The second part Is the
Rehearsal at West Lawn" when Muir
ply and Gilbert, Bryant and Cleaver,
the Checkers, Clarence Wilbur, the boy
baritone; little Katie Rooney in her
wonderful songs, dances and limitations
and Whitelaw and Stewart appear. The
third part is the laughing burletta,
1.-THE Dandy Mascot, or the Race in the
Moonlight during which Kelly and st.
Clair appear in soft-shoe buck and
wing dancing. Katie Rooney appears
in her lightning change from girl to
boy, and Newell and Shevette do the
most daring act ever witnessed on the
triple horizontal bars.
The performance closes with the ex-
hibition of the wonderful cinemato-
graphe. The box office is open daily
for the advance sale of seats.
BLACK CROOK.
The BLACK Crook in all its splen-
dor will begin an engagement of three
nights at the Grand Opera house, open
ing next Monday night. There are
many new features introduced this
season and the production will be given
with a carload of scenery and effects
and a company Of over thirty people.
There will be no advance in prices for
this attraction.

YALE-HARvARp ATHLETICS.
The Harvard View of the Prospect of
an Agreement.


The Harvard View of the Prospect Of
an Agreement.
Boston, Jan. 6.--At the meeting of
the Harvard athletic committee last
night DR.. Brooks, in whose hands the
Yale matter was left, is understood to
have reported that negotiations with
Yale have not been broken off, and
that, while there is little prospect of
an athletic meeting between the two
colleges, everything at present Is be-
ing held in allegiance, so far as Har-
ward is concerned, In order to see
whether Yale will take any further
steps or not. Professor Beale, chair
man Of the athletic committee, says
that no statement will be given out at
present. He will not talk of the meet
ing last night which is considered as
an indication that the Harvard men
have not given up all hope of an ath-
letlc reconciliation.
A member of the committee said to-
day that 1t was amusing to hear of
Yale's "ultimatum" to Harvard in re-
gard to the boat race, as Harvard has
race this spring while Yale has none
and is not likely to row any American
crew unless she meets Harvard; this
hardly leaves Yale in a position to is
sue an "ultlmatum." The Harvard
men are anxious to meet Yale and the
Yale undergraduates have already ex-
pressed their sentiment. Rowing mat
tiers may yet be arranged so that the
colleges may meet, but under no cir
cumstances will Harvard forgo its Cor
nell race.

The Death of Mrs Sperry-Burial In
Thomaston To-day.

Meriden, Jan. 6.--At the meeting of
Arcolas council, D. Of p, last evening,
the officers for this year were installed
by Mrs. Nellie Tyler of New Haven.
Mrs. Lloyd of Hartford, the Great
Pocahontas of Connecticut, said to the

business of the evening the council
adjourned to the banquet hall and all
had very jolly time.

why Attempt to Cure

Catarrh by the use of so-called blood
remedies? That catarrh is not caused
by blood troubles is self-evident when
you reflect that attacks are always due
to sudden climatic changes or exposure
and occur most frequently during the
winter and spring, though the blood is
as pure then as in summer or fall. A
remedy which quickly relieves and
cures the catarrhal attacks has been
found in Ely's Cream Balm.

A NAUGHTY BIRD.

Mystic, Jan. ga shrike is in the
village. He is picking UP English
sparroWs in great numbers. There are
no thorn bushes where he can spike
them. Hence he hangs them in the
limbs of trees. If he is not disturbed
he will finish our sparrows before warm
weather comes. The bird is smaller
than robin and darts like flash.

A Short
SAUTERNE Story.

About four years ago we by
chance obtained some forty cases of a
Sauterne Wine, so good that every Gus
toner to whom we sold it came back and
asked for more. After it was sold we
found that money couldn't buy any more
of it because no more of that particular
vintage and bottng was in exstencel.
Next inquiries began to come in,
"What have you like it?' Our answer
was, "Nothng-nothing just like it, at
any price"
Now it's different
In the summer of 1895 the head of
one of the best wine houses in France was
in America, and we told him the story of
that Sauterne."
He took our order for a sample lot,
to match in every characteristic the orig
inal Wine-body, color, flavor, bouquet,
and that Undesirable "sWeet-sour" taste.
A sample lot 30 cases) arrived,
and were pretty thoroughly tested. We
sent it in small lots to different customers
who were still looking for that Sauterne,
and as a result of their universally favor
able verdict, we sent an order to Bordeaux
and ordered out stock of the Wine.
It's now here, direct Importation
through the New Haven Custom House.
Do you like good Sauterne?
