wHITNEYvILLE NOTES.

The late Mrs. James M. Payne had
been member of Whitneyville Con-
gregational church for nearly forty
nine years and had been the wife of
Deacon Payne for fifty-two years. Her
death is much lamented.
The Whitneyville Tidings says: ''The
Whitneyville parish is one of magnifi-
cent distances. It's people are scatter
ed from Centerville to West Haven and
Westville and from the West Rock
ridge to the Quinnipiac river. Is it any
wonder that the pastor is quite a
stranger wherever he goes to call? In
one afternoon recently he walked nine
miles making parish calls"

SHEFFIELD LECTURE COURSE.

In the Sheffield course last evening
Professor D. Cady Eaton lectured on
Beatrice d'Este and Lodovico il
Moro" The lecture was in large part
devoted to the criticism of the art of
the period in which Beatrice and Lodo-
vico lived the latter part of the fif-
teenth century. Pictures of the duke
and duchess at various periods of their
lives, as represented by the artists of
the period were thrown on the screen
and interesting criticisms made of the
same by the lecturer Lodovico and
Beatrice were married in 1491, he being
over forty years of age, while his bride

ANOTHER DARING BURGLARY.
At Daniels Farms-One of the Rob-
bers Masked.

bers Masked.
Bridgeport, Conn.,, March S.--Daniels
Farms was the scene of another dar-
ing burglary last evening. Fortunate
Iy the crime was not accompanied
with bloodshed.
Two burglars, one of them masked
knocked at the door of G. Wolcott
Beach about o'clock. Mrs. Beach an
swered the knock and was met by q
man with revolver in his hand. He
pushed his way inside and covered Mr..
Beach, while the pal remained outside.
The man who entered was not mask
ed. The other, who stood on the step,
wore a black cloth over his face, with
holes cut for the eyes and mouth. The
man who entered uttered the stereo-
typed hold-up words: "Your money or
your life"
Mrs. Beach replied: "You can have
our money, but do not shoot"
The burglar who remained at the
door then covered Mr.. Beach with his
revolver, while the other accompanied
Mrs. Beach upstairs to get the money.
Mrs. Beach first gave her pocketboot,
which contained only a few dollars.
But the thief demanded more, and she
finally gave him her husbands wallet.
The robber and Mrs. Beach then re-
turned down stairs and after some few
words with the other thief, they left
AS a parting shot, they told Mr.. and
Mrs. Beach not to say a word about
the affair for twentyfour hours OF
they would return and kill them.
The scene of the robbery is within a
shot distance of the house Of George
M. Nichols, who was murdered by
Charles Boinay and David Weeks.
Soon after the robbers left Mr.
Beach went to the house of his broth
err, not far away, and told him what
had occurred. The brother Immediate
ly hitched up his horses and drove to
the city. THE local police were inform
ed and word was sent to all the sur
rounding cities.
There is no other clue to the robbers
except the description grven by Mrs,
Beach.

MR.. FosKETT BADLY INJURED.

A Shocking Runaway Accident Yester-
day.
William A. Foskett, president of the
Foskett & Bishop Plumbing company
was thrown from his carriage at the
corner of Grand avenue and State
street, at noon yesterday, and seriously
injured His head is badly cut, the lit
tie finger of his left hand is nearly
severed and he has, it is feared, suf-
fered internal injuries. Mr.. Foskett
is nearly eighty years old and on this
account his recovery Is made uncer-
tain.
Mr.. Foskett was driving home with
his son, William Foskett, jr. On the
Grand avenue bridge an unknown bicy-
clist ran into the horse. The fright
ened animal backed and cramped one
of the front carriage wheels, which
caught in the tracks and was wrecked,
letting the axle down to the ground.
The team of S. C. Horton of 6S Perkins
street was going along on one side of
the Horton team as he approached Mr..
Foskett's horse. AS he turned his
wheel sheered into Mr.. Foskett's horse.
Young Foskett leaped from the buggy
to catch the horse by the bride, but the
animal wastoo quick for him and with
a headlong plunge started to run.
At the corner of State street. in
front of Kellogg's bicycle store, Mr.
Foskett was thrown heavily against
the electric light and telegraph poles
which stand at the curb. He was pick
ed up and carried into Ford's drug
store in State street. DIR. Linquist
dressed his injuries and sent him to
his home at 1873 Davenprt avenue, in a
carriage.
The horse with the remains of the
carriage tore up Elm street to Church.
He turned toward Chapel street and
ran UP into the carriage of Charles H.
Gidney of North Branford, knocking
Mr.. G1dney's boy out of the carriage,
but not hurting him. The horse was
barely prevented from jumping into a
carriage containing some women when
he was stopped by Mr.. Gidney and Pal
mer l.. Hunt of Guilford and taken to
McDonald's stables on Court street.
The horse was examined by DIR. ]. H.
Kelly, who pronounced it uninjured
Late yesterday afternoon Mr.. Foskett
was still unconscious and owing to his
advanced years fears were entertained
that he would not recover.

Police Yesterday Dropped Upon an
East Street Shop.
Sergeant Hayes and Policemen En-
right and Connolly Of the Grand ave-
nue. police station yesterday afternoon
made a raid on a policy shop conducted
by Henry Dolan at 1873 East street. The

time that tobacco selling was not the
only business conducted there. In yes
terday's raid policy slips and full para
phernalia Of the game were found and
the evidence is thought to be sufficient
to lead to conviction. One man nam
ed Scott, colored man, was arrested,
on his own confession, on the charge of
policy playing. Dolan was arrested on

ranges are practically beyond aid for this
season. The cattle are IN such condition
that they will have TO be moved from
the drouth districts, and the indications
are that most OF the cattle will come east.
Some of the cattle are so weak that il
viii be some time before they can be
