LONG DISTANCE SIGNALLING.

Local Corps Signals to Mt. Tom, Sixty
 Miles Distant Experiment Not
 Wholly Successful Owing to the
 Haze
 The second section. brigade signal corps, of this city, made an interesting trial of signalling with the heliograph yesterday in conjunction with the Hartford signal corps.
 The signaling was for a greater dis tance than has been accomplished and in this instance was only partially suc- cessful
 The New Haven corps was stationed at Mt. Sanford near Mt. Carmel, and the Hartford corps on Mt. Tom in Mas sachusetts, a distance of over sixty miles.
 Lieut.. James Kingsley Blake conl- manded the corps and was accompan- jed by Corporals Mcfarland and Ed ward Uhl and several others, the whole party numbering ten.
 The corps left the armory about 3 clock Saturday afternoon on bcy- cles and proceeded to Mt. Sanford, where their equipment and instrument for signalling had been conveyed before them.
 The party proceeded half way up the mountain where they pitched their tents and encamped for the night. In the morning they proceeded to the top of the mountain, where they ex- perienced considerable difficulty in finding a place free enough from woods so that the flashes from the heliograph could be seen at Mt. Tom
 It was about 12 o'clock before they saw any signals from Mt. Tom They were unable to make out the meaning of these owing to the haze and the great distance but ot was evident that the corps on Mt. Tom saw their signals and were answering them.
 The party returned to the city yes terday afternoon.
 The signalling was good practice for the corps. although not as successful as they had wished. The greatest dis tance ever signalled by the corps was thirty miles.

AN FNOTrIRY

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 An invitation has been extended to certain dwellers of your beautiful city to participate with others in the pro- posed memorial exercises of May 31.
 Did it occur to those giving the in vitation that these people are denied the right of citizenship? That their wives and children may not enter our gates (though all other nationalities are free to do so) thereby being depriv- ed of home influence and all of the benefits that result from home life? Is it not true that other unjust acts might also be cited?
 With what emotions could they join in such a gathering or salute" the dear old flag that to them does not rep- resent Justice and liberty to all?" A DAUGHTER OF THE REVOLJT-
 TON.

YALE WON TIRE BOAT RACE.
The Badgers Rowed a P1ucky Race. B,
 Were Not Fast Enougl-11:B4 Was Yale

The Badgers Rowed Pfucky Race. But
 Were Not Fast Enough-11:54 Was Yale's
 Official Time-Witnessed by Many Thou
 sands.
 Yales varsity crew won from the Wisconsin crew at Lake SaltonstalI on Saturday afternoon by about three boat lengths.
 The race was scheduled to take place at 4:30, but owing to a delay of the Yale crew in getting their new launch ready it was o'clock before the start was made. The shores at the lower part of the lake were lined with thou sands of spectators, and when shortly after 5 o'clock the launch steamed up the lake with the two crews aboard and towing the shells the old long cheer of Yale was saluted by the Wis consiners and the blues defenders
 The start was a good one, and both crews got off without any splashing. For one hundred yards they rowed along abreast at a forty clip, but soon Yale began to forge ahead and took a good lead. Yale's stroke was then low cred to 32, this stroke being kept through the remainder of the race after the quarter was passed. During the entire race, except a short distance af- ter passing the half mile, the lake was smooth as glass, and there was none of the roughness with which the Badgers were obliged to contend when they rowed against Yale's freshmen last year.
 The time as given out by the officials of the race was: For Yale, ten minutes and fifty-four seconds; for Wisconsin, eleven minutes and six seconds
 The officials of the race were: Ref cree. Guy Richards of New York; judges, O. T. Waite of Wisconsin and Julian W. Curtis of New York; timers, Robert J. Cook for Yale and Andrew O'Dea for Wisconsin.
 The Wisconsin boys started for home yesterday morning and expect to reach Madison Wednesday after short stop in Chicago.

ENTERTAINMENTS. '
poli,s Wonderland rhenter.

Another fine attraction has been se- cured for this week in the Bison City Quartet, generally regarded as Ameri- cas foremost vocal comedy organiza- tion. Try as Manager Poli would dur ing the past two years to secure them, he has been unable to do so until now, for the reason that they have been en- gagged almost uninterruptedly with leading dramatic and farce comedy companies. During the nine years that they have been associated together they have been at various times con- Thompson, Frank Mayo, the Brownies, Hoyt's companies and many other ways meeting with the most pronounce ed success. The New Haven public, at least that portion of it which keeps abreast of theatrical news, is familiar with the fame and success of the Bl- sons, and a very general desire exists to see and hear them. In conjunction with the quartet a very good vaudeville company will also appear. Among the artists engaged are John c. Fox, for nerly of Conroy and Fox, and Miss Kitty Allen, Webb and Hassan, Fran cilli and Lewis, Bryant and Darville, the Prentice Trio Miss Clarice Vance, and the Brownings.
 Bicycles checked free always at this theater on application to the doortend- CT.

When mans stomach is out of order, and his digestion don't work; when his liver gets to be sluggish and won't clear the bile out of his blood, it Is time for him to look out for himself. He gets no nourishment out of his food. His blood gets thicker and thicker with impurities. His nerves get irri- tated. He loses energy and fighting force.
 He may say, II can stand it, will feel better tomorrow" but the chances are he will feel worse tomorrow and worse still next day. He ought to put himself right at once He needs Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery It is made for just this condition. It rouses up the digestive and nutritive organs, and gives them power to extract from the food all the nutritious elements and transform them Into rich, nourishing blood. It enables the liver to cleanse out all bilious impurities and pour into the circula- ton an abundance of highly vitalized blood, full of the life-g giving red corpuscles which build up healthy flesh, muscular strength and nerve-energy. It does not make habby flesh It is the only suitable tonic and strength builder for corpulent people.
