SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA.

The Great Opening of the Ticket Sale at
 the Hyperion Box Office. 1t is a great pleasure to state that the sale of tickets for the concerts of the New Haven Symphony orchestra is be- ing finely patronized. In fact, from the early part of Thursday morning until evening a continuous rush for tickets was made. This is the right spirit in which to encourage production of music in our city and as the concerts of our local orchestra are so delightful to hear those purchasing seats will be amply compensated for the expense they make in this direction, while the orchestra with such financial support will be en- couraged to still improve in it's under takings.
 Following is the programme for the first concert next Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock:
 1. Symphony in A, No. 7..-.. Beethoven Poco Sostenuto.

Care of the Dairy Calf.

Select the most promising heifer
calves for raising at any time of year.
1t will require a little better man
agement for the best success in
cold weather than in warm, but the
conditions in either case should be
made as favorable as possible. The
calves should be kept dry, warm and
comfortable at all seasons of the year.
This is very important where the best
results are expected. As usually,
after q few days or weeks old, skinned
milk is made use of, it will be found
profitable to feed this until several
months old-six or more. 1t should
be fed at the temperature it comes
from the COW and not in too large
quantities at first. A little Cruel made
from wheat middlings or oil meal adj
ded to the milk will help make up for
the fat removed. After the calf gets
old enough to eat ground oats, or oats
and bran, the Cruel can be omitted, as
they should do equally well on the
other, and it will require less labor.
After the first few weeks they will eat
a little hay, and care should be taken
to have supply of fine early cut for
the purpose.-E. r. Towle, in Massa-
chusetts Ploughman.

Drinkers, Contrnct..

Among the new questions in medical
Jurisprudence considered by DIR. T. ID.
Crothers, In the Popular Science Monthly.
Is that concerning the ability of men who
use much alcohol TO make n contract.
Alcohol, says DIR. Crothers, "clearly
predisposes to criminality by lowering aud
paralyzing the higher brain centres which
preside over consciousness Of right and
wrong. The Immediate effect Of spirits Is
TO cause impulsive. petty acts. For the
present moment such acts might material
ize into serious crime, but II would depend
upon favorable conditions and surround
ings. The unstable condition Of the brain.
made so by alcohol, is more or less in
capable OF sustaining proconceived idea
ana carrying II out, especially II time and
continuous drinking follow. This Is the
rule to which there are exceptions, but
these exceptions clearly follow certain cir
eumstances which are easily traced. Often
II is claimed that spirits are given for the
purpose OF obtaining undue influence In
the making OF will or signing contract.
This is contirmedb by clinical study OF cases,
and facts indicate the impulsiveness OF the
act, with absence of deliberation or fore
thought. Delusions and misconceptions of
acts and motives are very common In all IN
ebriates. Faulty reasoning, childish ere

discriminate and adjust himself to the con
ditions aud surroundings must Of necessity

cases the condition is covered up. and only
when the person acts along unusual lines
is 1t apparent.
All contracts and wills written by IN
ebriates should be subjected to careful
scrutiny. Not infrequently such acts dis
play sound judgment, and II is found that
they are the elimination Of previous con-
cepttons. Where they manifest imbecility
and strange motives, 1t is clearly the work.
lngs OF an anRsthetic brain, acting from
suggestions from without or deranged i'm
pulses formed within. While a very large
number OF inebriates act nationally In or
binary affairs of society and business, and
do not conalit overt acts that come under
legal recognition, II is a question IL this Is
not the result of accident and conditions.
There are strong reasons for believing that
slight changing Of surroundings both
mental and physical would explode the de-
generation which exists and bring to light
insanity. crlminality or idiocy. Instances
are not tnfrequent of acts Of lawlessness
and crime in inebriates previously law
abiding and honest citizens. II was not
the last use of spirits which provoked the

had been gathering like a storm before.
The direction and form which this disturb

At Waverley, Ohio, while Tom
Schoonover was crossing the field of a
neighbor, he was pursued by an infur-
lated bull. The chase began about
the middle of the field, and, although
Schoonover put forth superhuman ef-
forts to reach the fence, he was struck
in the rear by the bull and thrown
bodily fifteen feet high, coming down
on his feet in the middle of the pond,
comparatively unhurt.

of Kidding himself of his enemy by
