MUCH STIRRED UP.

Branford and Guilford Residents UP in
Arms over General Havens orders.
The residents of Branford and Gull
ford who have the best interests of
Battery A at heart and who have al
ways stood by the organization are
very much worked up over Adiutant
General HaVen's order to the Yale
platoon to enlist enough Yale men to
fill the vacancies in the Branford and
Guilford batteries and fell that they
have been sighted. A friend of the
battery said on the subject last night:
This feeling is not caused for reason of
any aversion for Yale, because they are
always DESTROYS of seeing anything
that represents Yale at the front, but
because the battery has been located in
the two towns for so many years and
has always been known as the Bran
ford and Guilford sections. There are
plenty of able bodied men in the two
towns, who are DESTROYS of joining the
battery and filling the places made
vacant by those who were unable to
pass the examinations. There are
among these men many who have serv-
ed five, six or eight years in the bat
terry and have the advantage of being
well drilled and up in army matters.
1T is claimed that Captain Honce sew
eral days ago visited Adjutant General
Havens and was then assured that he
would be given orders to enlist men as
they were needed and that he has not
gone forward in the work for fear of
disobeying orders 1t is also said that
there is detail list of recruits already
made up from which a sufficient num-
her of men could be taken to fill the
7 vacancies. The country people know
what is right and what is wrong and
they claim that Adjutant General Ha-
ven's orders should have been issued
to those who have had experience and
been known in military circles. Many
Of the old army officers and the older
residents claim that they will take the
matter up to Governor Cooke and also
with Senator Hawley.

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.

Preparations for Fitting Celebration.
The following circular has been mail
ed to the various organizations of the
city:
New Haven, Conn, May 9, 1898.
Dear sir--The executive committee
on Fourth of July celebration most re-
spectfully request that your organiza-
ton send one representative to the gen
eral committee on Fourth of July cele-
bration, which assemblies at Room IL
city hail. on Friday, June 8, at o'clock
p. m.
1t is especially fitting that every pa
triotic citizen should aid in celebrating
the Fourth of July for 1898. The prin-
ciples of government and the over
throw Of tyranny which brought about
the American Revolution in 1776, and
the cause of human liberty which de-
veloped the civil strife in 1861, have
again involved our country in war.
Therefore it is our duty as well as
pleasure to hail the glorious Fourth of
July as synonymous with progress,
civilization and human liberty. Let
the bells chime and the cannons boom.
Let praises be sung by old and young,
and wave the starry emblem more Wig
orously than ever. To aid in this COM
ing celebration your hearty co-opera-
| ton is earnestly solicited.
] General E. e. Bradley, Chairman.
Send name and address to w. w.
| Stow secretary, P. o. Box 1923, City.
| P. S.-Any organizations not receiv-
| ing this circular are requested to send
one delegate to the general committee.

THIRD CONNECTICUT REGIMENT
BOYS BRIGADE.

A large an enthusiastic meeting was
held at Calvary Baptist church on
Monday evening. Every company in

Heavy artillery he was granted an I'M
limited leave of absence and Lieuten-
ant Colonel Beebe will take charge of
the regiment in the meantime.
The acceptance of the Admiral Foote
post, G. A. r., of the services of the

decided to aid them in the morning
and in the afternoon to take part in
the exercises of the Sunday schools on
the green. There will be dress pa
rade, after which the regiment headed
by the Second Regiment band will go
to Calvary Baptist church to assist Co.
A in flag raising. 1t was also de-
cided to hold a mass meeting on Sum
day afternoon, May IS, which will be
a distinctly patriotic service in ac-
cordance with the spirit of the times.
The regular annual field day of the
regiment will be held at Pawson park
on Friday, July l. There will be the
usual features and in addition a cup
has been offered for the company rep

that day. Following are the conditions

consist of one sergeant, one corporal
and seven privates, who must have

Third-The committee shall appoint
three judges, who shall conduct the
drill as they think best, using the regu-
lation United States tactics. Any de-
cision they make shall be final.
Fourth-The company winning the
trophy shall hold it until the succeed
ing competition, when it shall be turn
ed over to the committee, who in turn
shall present it to the company win
ming it at that time.
Fifth-After nine competitions the
trophy shall be awarded to the COM
pany which shall have won it the
| greatest number Of times.
Sixth-The date of drill and names of
winners shall be engraved upon the

| members fully realize that great THINGS
are expected of it.

A Handsome Silver Mounted Sabre
Presented to Him.
Washington, May 10--Mr. Roosevelt
said farewell to-day to the officials and
clerks of the navy department. 1t is
safe to say that not one of the en-
ployes from the highest to the lowest
declined the invitation which was sent
around to all the. bureaus to call at
the assistant secretary's Office and say
goodbye to Mr.. Roosevelt. There were
many expressions of regret at his de-
parture and the whole affair was lack

attaches to ceremonies of the kind

ing to Mr.. Roosevelt very handsome
silver mounted cavalry sabre, which he

will leave Washington for San Antonio
upon Geographic advices from Colonel
Wood commanding the regiment, which
are expected within a day or two at
the latest.

"THE PERSIAN GARDEN"
Mrs. Ford's Success,

Mrs. Seabury Ford, who is the So
prano of the quartette that win rem
der 1.-THE Persian Garden" in this city
on Saturday, the 21st, is one of the
most successful singers in her own line
of work in the country. Mrs. Ford is a
Cleveland singer and her reputation as
soprano of unusual ability was made
by her singing in the principal Presby-
terrain church of that city. Her fame
spread and she took up oratorio work
She is one of the best known artists in
the west and she has done splendid
work in Cincinnati Chicago, and the
other musical centers of the west.
few years ago she was one Of the solo,
lists at the Worcester festival she
was especially chosen for this Per
sian Garden" production by Victor
Harris. The work was given for the
first time in New York at private
musicale given by Thomas I'll. Kelley,
the very wealthy bachelor OF New
York. 1t was so successful that IL
was repeated few days later for the
benefit of a swell charity at the, Wal
dorf- Astoria. Here it had enormous
success and 1.-THE Persian Garden" I'M
mediately became the particular sue
cess of the season. 1t has been given
many times privately and more times
in public Victor Harris made 1T the
piece de resistance at his Astoria con-
cert. Marguerite Hall chose 1t for her
annual concert at the Mendelssohn
Glee club hall. Because Of the dra-
matte possibilities of the score 1T SEEM
ed to lend itself to orchestral treat
ment. A week ago Sunday it was sung
at the Metropolitan Opera house under
Victor Harris direction, with the
American Symphony orchestra. 1t
was successful, but the general opin-
ion seemed to be that the piano score
! was more idiomatic and more satisfac-
tory. The work to be enjoyed best
should be heard in a small hall. For
| this reason it will be heard to especial
advantage In the Historical society
hall, where the acoustics are unusually
good.
The affair has double interest here,
because besides the musical Importance
of the occasion, there is the charitable
| object for which it is given. The SPLEEN
did work which the Church Army is
doing here has enlisted the sympathies
/! of the public to an unusual degree.

COLONEL HORNE'S COMPANY.
Winsted, May 10.-Colonel Samuel B.
Horne has been notified by the war de-
partment that sixty-five men constitute
a cavalry company. Therefore, the
colonel says, when his company has
been recruited to that number formal
organization will be effected.
Colonel Horne is confident that should
the president issue another call for men
his company, which numbers fifty, will
go to the front. This belief is formed
partially from the fact that cavalrymen
will be in demand.

WHEAT REPORTS.
May Returns to Department of Agri-
culture


culture.
Washington, May 10.-The May re-
turns to the statisticsian of the depart
ment of agriculture show the acreage
in winter wheat to be SIG per cent.
greater than the acreage last year.
While there is an increase of rs per
cent in Kansas, more or less marked
increase in eastern and southern
states, the large expansion thus indi-
Gated is to some extent offset by de-
crease of per cent. in Indiana, OF q
per cent. in Ohio, IL per cent. in Iowa.
II per cent. in Illinois. The average
condition of winter wheat is $50
against S02 in May last year. In the
United States with one million acres
or upwards in this product the average
is as follows: Kansas, 105; Pennsylva-
mia, So; Michigan and Tennessee, 95;
! Missouri, So; Indiana, 81; Illinois, So;
Ohio, 50, and California rs.
Correspondents agree in reporting
the crop of California to be one of the
smallest ever raised in the state,
| while the crop of Kansas bids fair to
| be the largest in it's history.
| The average condition of winter rye
| is 94.5 as compared with IS on May !
| of last year, the averages in the states
of principal production are as follows:
Kansas, SO; Pennsylvania, 81; New
York and Michigan, each 96; New Jer-
sey, 95; Illinois, SO.
! With few exceptions the reports on
the condition of winter rye are ex-
| ceedingly favorable.
| The average condition Of meadows is
929, against 1914 on May of last year.
In the fourteen principal hay growing
| states the averages are as follows:
Nebraska, 1902; New York, 81; Wiscon-
sin, 90; Michigan, 95; Iowa and Kansas
"a; Pennsylvania, SO; Minnesota, 50; H.
linois and Missouri, 81; Ohio, SO; South
| Dakota, 81; California, SIS.
| The average condition of spring pas
ture is 912 against 1914 at the CORE
spending date in 1897.
Among the more important averages
are the following: Nebraska, 9S; New
York, 81; Indiana, 96; Wisconsin and
Iowa, "a; Pennsylvania and Michigan
each 92; Illinois, Minnesota and Kan
sas, each 80; Ohio, SO; Missouri, 81.
The proportion of spring blowing
usually done by May is 75.S per cent
of the whole amount. The proportion
| done this year by this date is 57.s
| against 62.3 last year.
In Kansas the proportion done up tc
May 1 was IL per cent. below the aver
age. In Missouri it was 16 per cent
and in Illinois, 10 per cent.

Announcement of the death Of Harry
L. May brings a sense of loss to many
newspaper workers throughout New
England. Though young in years, Mr..
May had enjoyed valuable and inter-
esting experience and had accomplished
much that was worth doing AS news
editor and, for a brief period, as man
aging editor of the Springfield Union in
the days before that newspaper pub
lished a morning edition, and later as
an editorial writer on the Boston Ad-
vertiser, his work was admirable. He
was an excellent judge of news, and his
writing was characterized by force and
elegance. Socially, he was genial and
companionable, and his loyal nature
won and retained many warm friends.
