up their ears and eagerly scanned the
faces of all who approached the gate.
They are his dogs.
Luetgert might be cold-hearted, cal
>ulating, demonlike, as the state has
sought to paint him. He might be the
foulest Of mankind, one willing to
commit any crime, no matter how hOr
rible, to gain his ends. But he GER
tainly has the power Of winning the
affections Of the lower animals. No
house in the subdivision was so we'll
guarded as his. No place of business
had as many and as ready sentine!s
as his. No brutes in the knowledge of
the average citizen were ever more
faithful to their master, than these
huge, ferocious and strengthening
hounds, who have lived under his roof
and have fed from his hand since the
days of callow puppydom. No man to
whom they are unknown would dare
enter that gate alone. His life would
probably pay the forfeit of his temer-
ity. Yet to the members of the fam
lily and to friends they are gentle and

less conspicuous part in the famous

Danes, with but slender foundation on

marks Of these animals. They are too

to force him down OH his knees. Blows were
struck, and curses exchanged, when quiet

DR.. Steel hastily led Dorothy out of the

AN OBJECT LESSON.

The present board of county commits
sioners have given an object lesson
and a practical demonstration to our
city fathers on the subject of water
supply in boring the big artesian well
at the new courthouse. This we'll will
prove blessing and a great saving to
the taxpayers and truly illustrates
what could be done by the city in bull
ding its own waterworks. Whenever
the city owns and runs it's own water
works, electric light plant, taxes the
unsjghtly poles used by the wires by
the telegraph, telephone and other
companies, and assesses a franchise
tax upon the earnings Of the various
corporations, enjoying a monopoly Of
our streets, then the poor homestead
taxpayers will enjoy some relief.
Will this happy day ever come?
Strange things sometimes happen. See
what our county commissioners have
done; they are on the right track.

"S4MSON IND DELIL4n."
The Gounod Concert To-night-A Large
and Fashionable Audience Assured,


and Fashionable Audience Assured.
Unquestionably one of the most de-
lightful and interesting concerts ever
given by the Gounod society will come
off tonight in the Hyperion theater.
A very large audience is assured, as
the sale of seats during the last day or
two has been unexpectedly heavy.
Samson and Delilah," the work to
be sung, is called by it's author a Bibli-
cal opera, and the famous story is treat
ed by him in a mastery and altogether
entrancing manner. The score abounds
in unique and thrilling passages, and
there is not dull page in it.
The orchestration alone is marvel
Gus piece of Writing, the Oriental color
ing being full of wierd and sensuous
beauty. The perfect familiarity of the
Boston festival orchestra with the work
will add much to the pleasure of the
evening
The sooists will be Miss Gertrude
May Stein, mezzo- soprano; Mr.. Barron
Berthald, tenor; Mr. Heinrich Meyn,
baritone, and Mr. Herbert Witherspoon,
bass.
Miss Stein is admirably adapted by
temperament to sing the role of De
lilah," and will undoubtedly impart the
necessary fire and passion to it. Her
many friends here will be glad that she
is to be given at last a part which will
call out the full measure of her powers.
The other artists engaged are perfectly
Ill a1 ,iroh hJxr
adapted for the work and sure to make
a success in their parts. Our towns
man, Mr. Witherspoon, will undoubted-
ly be accorded hearty reception by
his many friends and we'll wishers.
A full dress rehearsal will take place
in the Hyperion at 2 p. m. to-day, with
the soloists, chorus and orchestra,
which the management, contrary to
the custom of the last few years, will
be obliged to close to the public.
The requirements off the score in
Samson and Delilah" are so elaborate
that a strictly private rehearsal is nee
essary in order to ensure a good
evening performance
Those who intend to go to the concert
dlt Slstu W SCtulS lIeli SCatS carly
to-day. There will be some excellent
seats available both in the orchestra
circle and in the dress circle Those who
want 81 seats are reminded that the
management will place few in the or
chestra circle on sale at a. m. The
top gallery is actually one of the best
places to listen to a concert in the Hy-
perion. Reserved seats may be had
there for 75c and 81. Admission to-
morrow evening will be SOC, 75c and
81.
Llbrettos can be had at all the music
stores and at the box office.

BOARD OF SELECTNEN.
Michael Dillon Wants the Streets on the
Pardee Lots Graded.


Michael Dillon was before the board
of selectmen last evening requesting
them to grade and open so as they
could be used several streets in a plot
of ground in Westville owned by Henry
c. Pardee, and which was laid ont into
streets and building lots several years
ago by him. Mr.. Dillon told the board
that as Mr.. Pardee was unable to make
these Improvements and inconsequence
of the grand list of the town being in
creased by the work, he thought the
town would be amply repaid for the ex-
penditure. The matter was referred to
Town Counsel Goodhart to inquire
whether the streets in question had
ever been open.
The claim of John L. Rudolph of
Woodbridge for a horse, which, he says,
was killed by the falling of tree on
March IL was referred to the roads and
bridges committee.
The selectmen and those of Wood
bridge have failed to agree as to the
proportion of the expenditure each town
should bear for the cutting down of
Long Hill and the work will be delayed
for sometime. There is a prospect of
its being abandoned.

Mr. Stewart spoke of the commission

Mr.. Hawley admitted that the civil
service law which he had Joined in re-
porting had fallen into a state of con
spicuous Incompetence" and he relatt-
ed an instance of an army engineer
having charge of works on Long Is
land sound having been prevented
from employing as an inspector
thoroughly capable steamboat captain
who knew every rock and sand bar in
the harbor because they had sent to
him "a school master from Rhode Is
land"
Mr.. Lodge having in his remarks rid
iculed some of the statements made by
senators as to logarithms differential
calculus and other abstruse examina-
tions by the civil service commission,
Mr. Gallinger retorted with some sar-
castle illusions to Mr.. Lodges esthet-
icism. He repeated his declaration that
he would vote to blot out the civil SER
vice law and would take his chance
with the people whom he represented,
without regard to how it might strike
the esthetic taste of the people OF Mas
sachusetts.
Mr., German said that he sympathized
with republican senators in their arlx-
iety to pen the doors of office THE
hungry are with them" he said, land
their desire to reform the civil service
law is perfectly natural
The final result was that the resolu-
ton was amended by substituting the
committee on civil service and re-
trenchment for the other committee and
by adding a requirement that the COM
mittee should examine the civil service
law and report whether it should be
continued, amended or repealed. In
this form the resolution was agreed to
without division

Nale's Famous Shortstop May Manage u
New Haven Team in state League.
Those who are interested in organ
izing a baseball nine for New Haven
to play in the state league the coming
season have been for some time cor
responding with William H. Murphy,
eX-captain of the Yale baseball team
in 1892, and one of the best shortstops
on the Yale team, with a view of in
ducing him to manage a New Haven
team this season. Mr. Murphy came
to New Haven yesterday and held a
conference with the gentlemen who are
the prime movers in the forming of a
New Haven club. He was offered a
handsome inducement to manage a
team and has taken the matter under
consideration, but has not given a def1-
mite decision yet.
Mr.. Murphy said yesterday that he
would like to manage a team here,
as he has many friends here and likes
the city, but he has several offers to
manage teams, some of the offers being
from teams in the Eastern league, and
the question as to where he will locate
for the season has developed into a
financial one to him.
1t is said that if Murphy can be Sc
cured to manage q team here the team
would receive the unlimited support
from business men who have great con-
fdence in him, and believe that he can
develope a good team here.
In case Murphy does not come to stay
here, it is probable that evil be no
New Haven team in the state league
this year. Mr. Murphy's decision will
be known in day or two.
