TO GLEN ISLAND.
The Steamer John H. Starin's Extra
 Trip on Saturday.

The Steamer John H. Starin's Extra
 Trip on Saturday.
 The steamer John H. Starin on Sat- urday made a special trip to Glen Isl- and and took some 300 Meridenites and others. They came to New Haven on an extra train which stopped at the end of Canal dock, from which place the steamer started, so that the excursion ists had but a very short distance to walk. This perfect arrangement was made by Mir. Fisher, the Starin agent in this city, and the excursionists were very thankful. Saturday was an ideal day for trip to the Eden of the sound. It was delightfully."- cool on the water and the arrangements on the boat for the comfort of the people were all that could be desired. In the matter of re- treatments the boat gives an extra fine service which is this season under the management of MT. Goodenough, who now has care of the business of Fran els, the caterer. Captain McAlister, as the chief official of the boat, was as ever, solicitous for the welfare of the excursionists and the ready courtesy of the employees under him added to the pleasure of the occasion. At the island were several hundred excursionists from other points, among them 130 from Bridgeport, including the Sunday school of the Church of the Redeemer of that city, the members of which went on the Starin steamer Mohawk Yesterday the Starin took 150 excur- sionists to Roton Point.

The Outdoor Meetings of the Y. M. c.
 A. Well Attended
 The outdoor meetings conducted un- der the auspices of the Central and Railroad branches of the Young Mems Christian association held on Sunday afternoons, continues to grow in inter est. Yesterday afternoons meeting held on the steps In front of Center church on the green commencing at 4:30 was we'll attended. These meet ings last for about an hour. The speak ing is helpful, the music bright sung in an inspiring manner, and doubtless there are many who are brought face to face with the fact that they must change their manner of living. The ap- parent interest which those present take in the words of the speaker and the desire to catch everything he says must certainly be helpful to him and assist him in presenting the truth much more clearly than he otherwise could.
 For the past three Sundays the at tendance at these meetings has increas- ed each Sunday and yesterdays meet ing was the largest yet. The principal speaker was H. G. Gibbud, the we'll known evangelist of Springfield Mass, who thoroughly aroused the large au- dience to keen sense of their duty to God and their fellow men. His talk abounded in interesting stories which truthfully pictured the life one is com pelled to lead when he Is without God, and walking in the broad way which leads to destruction. He held the clos est attention of his hearers for about half hour. The remainder of the hour was devoted to singing and prayer. The Y. P. S. c. Els of the First Metho- dist and Trinity Methodist churches led in the singing, and their services were much appreciated. At the close of the meeting a short after meeting was conducted in the church and was fairly attended.
 A meeting was also held in the park at Savin Rock.

DEATH OF THOMAS HURLE.
We'll Known Tailor Found Dead in His
 Store Yesterday Afternoon.

We'll Known Tailor Found Dead in His
 Store Yesterday Afternoon.
 Thomas Hurle, the we'll known Gen. ter street tailor, was found lying on the floor of his tailoring establishment, dead, about 1:30 yesterday afternoon. Mr. Hurle started out just before din- ner to take walk, but did not return at dinner time and his son-in-law, w. V. Lindon, started out to find him. MT. Lindon walked down to the tailor shop and, entering, was met by an overpow- ering odor of escaping gas. Going on in he found MT. Hurle lying on the floor dead, and on investigation found that the gas-jets in the store were turned on. Medical Examiner White was at once notified and after investigation de- cided that death was due to asphyxia- tion. The remains were removed to the residence, 339 York street.
 MT. Hurle was born in England and was in his seventy-fourth year. He came to this country in 1S49 and re- mained for two years in Brooklyn. In 1851 he came to New Haven and had since lived here. For thirteen years af- ter he came to New Haven he was cut ter for w. D. Bryan, prominent tailor at that time. Early in the eos he en- tered business for himself at the corner of College and Chapel streets. He had been in business at the Center street store for number of years. He was a member of Wooster lodge, F. and A. NJ, of City lodge, I. O. O. F., and of the Veteran Grays' association. MT. Hurle had been in poor health for a number of years and had suffered from pain in the head. About year and a half ago he took a trip around the world, think ing that this would benefit his health. During the trip he wrote several inter- esting letters to the Journal and Cour- fer. While in New Zealand he visited sixty relatives living on that island. He

RETURNS TO HIS STUDIES.
A Hoy Soldier, Twice Wounded Mt
Santiago. Resumes His Schooling.

Santiago Resumes His Schooling.
New York, Sept. 16-Thomas ]. Dixon,
jr.. a school boy, who cast aside his books
TO enlist in the Seventy-first Regiment,
and went through the hottest fighting of
the war, returning home with two
wounds has resumed his studies among
his schoolfellows. AS he is merely on
furlough he attends school every day In
his uniform, and goes through his reel
tations as calmly as if he had never
heard the singing of Mausers or felt the
stunning blow of bullets.
Young Dixon is a bright youth of nine
teen. The outbreak of the war reused his
ardor, and he gained his parents con-
sent TO enlist, joining Company A, Of the
Seventy-first, Capt. Townsend, on April
80 last.
His company, he said, advanced on San
Juan Hill on July l, on the left of the
Sixteenth Infantry, forded the creek and
finally occupied a small house on the
slope. They moved toward the right then
and lay down to sleep.
They were awakened about ! o'clock in
the morning to dig trenches, which Com
pdllIeS "A, I, ~ OCCupleu DS
Dixon was one of detail of twelve men
who went TO the rear TO get packs which
had been left behind. They returned at
dusk.
when we got back he said, I'VE were
tired and wet, having forded the creek
twice i dried myself at a campfire and
lay down. Firing woke us up about 10
O'Clock, and Major Whittle ordered Com
pany A to the firing line. We started for
the trenches. and 1 felt a blow just be-
hind my right ear. 1t stunned me for a
moment and 1 staggered. Putting my
hand to my head, found that the bullet
had only graZed me, but it bled pretty
freely"
There is a white scar on Dixons head
to show how narrow was his escape
THE bullets We're coming thick when
We reached the TRENCH he said. For
some of us there was no room, and we
lay down on the ground. l had hardly
stretched myself when 1 felt a sharp
blow on the right shoulder. The bullet
entered at the top and came out at the
back
Il got up and walked back short dis
lance and met one of the hospital corps.
He tied up my head and my shoulder
pretty WELL but banded them so tightly
that 1 was dizzy. 1 stayed near the
trenches until 10 o'clock in the morning
of Sunday. July 3when Major White
ordered me to the rear Two men helped
me to walk to the emergency hospital,
and later l went in ambulance to the
division hospital, where my wounds were
dressed for the first time.
They started me for Sibnoey, then, in
an army wagon, but l couldn't stand it.
1 got out and walked. and finally reached
Siboney."
When school opened last Monday young
Dixon gathered his books together and
went back as a matter of course. The
presence of a wounded soldier among the
pupils would have caused enough sensa-
ton, but when he was one of themselves.
the studies were almost demoralized. Had
he had a thousand buttons and bullets,
he could not have satisfied the demands
for souvenirs. and the number of times
he has been asked how it felt to be shot
would not bear calculation.
