MONEY FOR THE HOSPITALS
GIVEN BY CONGREGATIONS OF "A RI0US CITY CHURCHES SUNDAY.

RIOUS CITY CHURCHES SUNDAY. The Annual Special CoIiections-Amounts Received in Several Larger Than Last Years Collections-Trinity Episcopal Collection Not Counted-Center Church Gave SsO6.64, United Church SasO.
 In nearly all the churches of the city yesterday the annual collections for the benefit of the General hospital and of Grace hospital were taken up. The col lections were in general somewhat larg- CT than those last year. In some of the churches the envelope plan, whereby the collections are handed in all during the month of January. is followed, and in these churches it will be impossible to know the total amounts donated un- til about February 1. This plan is fol- lowed at St. Pauls church. At the First Baptist church the custom is to benevolence, and from the sum received therefore an. appropriation is made to the hospitals. The amount to be thus given has not yet been decided upon.
 Trinity Episcopal church usually makes large contributions to the hospi- tals on the occasion of the annual col lections for that purpose, but the amounts given yesterday could not be ascertained last night, as Judge A. Hea- ton Robertson, who took charge of the collections, stated that he had not yet counted them.
 Of the amounts reported last night as having been collected at various church es the largest was given by Center church. The total amount given at this church was sSO6.64, of which $730.89 was for the General hospital and $75.75 to Grace hospital.
 At the Church of the Redeemer the total sum collected was $306, and of this about two-thirds will go to the New Haven hospital and the remaining one third to Grace hospital
 At United church $2SO in all was con- tributed. Of this $25O was for the Gen eral hospital and $50 for Grace hospi- tai.
 At Davenport church $1S.96 was given, $9.48 for each hospital.
 At Calvary Baptist church $33.17 was contributed, of which $28.38 goes to the New Haven hospital and $13.39 to Grace hospital.
 Plymouth Congregational church has the envelope system. Each member of the church has an envelope and they are permitted to send them in at any time during the month, and the amount contributed by the members will not be known until the last Sunday in the month
 At Dwight Place church, yesterday morning, $41S9 was contributed for the New Haven hospital and $4474 for Grace hospital. These amounts, how ever, do not represent the total sum given by the members of this church, as many have sent their contributions direct to the hospitals.
 At the Howard avenue Congregational church $9.91 was collected, all of which will be given to the New Haven hos pital.
 The usual contributions at Grace M B. church will not be made until later in the month, probably on the last Sun- day.
 At St. Johns Episcopal church $1431 was given to Grace hospital and $13.01 to the New Haven hospital.
 At Trinity M. B. church total of s10s was collected.
 The amounts collected at St. Thomas Episcopal and Christ churches had not yet been counted last night.

A PRISONER TRIES SUICIDE
JAMES BUELL, AGED FIFTY YEARS,
 OF uIDDLETOWN.
Made Moose of Scarf and Attached One End to the Top Crossbar of His Cell Discovered by Another Prisoner and His Life saved-A Prisoner on Parole Commits Murder.

Commits Murder.
 Middletown. Conn, Jan. 9.-James Buell., aged fifty. attempted suicide by hanging to the bars of cell door In the police station tonight, but was dis covered in time to be cut down before life was wholly extinct.
 Buell. was employed at Hotel Chaffee, and had always borne good reputa- tion. This afternoon he was arrested for drunkenness, and as it was the first time he had ever been arrested, he felt the disgrace very keenly, when he had sobered up somewhat.
 A long scarf which he wore proved a convenient means for his attempt at self destruction. and after making a moose. which he adjusted around his neck. he tied the other end to the top cross bar on his cell door and then sus- pended himself.
 A prisoner who was allowed the privi- lege of the corridor discovered the man hanging and gave the alarm. Officer Chapman was just reports for duty and hastened to the scene In time to save Buelrs life. He was then removed to another cell and everything taken from him that might contribute to another attempt at self-destruction.
 Middletown, N. r., Jan. 9.-Frank Beckwith, a watchman In the employ of the Ontario and Western railroad, while in the performance of his duties last night about g o'clock, noticed a man acting suspiciously in the freight yard near the station. He ran up be- hind the man and grasped him about the arms, but the man broke loose and immediately drawing a revolver shot Beckwith twice through the lungs. The murderer was Edward Simpson, a for mer inmate of the Elmira reformatory, but now out on parole. He had no sooner committed the act than he be- came penitent and told the whole story to the persons who came up to him at the sound of the revolver shots. Simp- son helped to carry the wounded man to his home.
 Beckwith died this morning. He was formerly an engineer on the road, but because of an injury was retired and made watchman. He leaves widow and a child.

AN APPEAL FOR THE BALL AND Bat
Get together, boys! 1t looks like lsziness
when our town cannot have an occasional
game OF baseball. You don't want to be
called lazy, do you? Tone yourselves up.
The game is the proper tonic. 1t invigorates
sud arouses the senses, made sluggish by the
enforced inactivity of bleak winter. 1t puts
life in the people. 1t gives what we need
here, a bit of wholesome interest in some
thing besides our daily worries and takes our
minds for the time being off our peighbor's
business. Give US something else To talk
about. You have 1t In your power TO be
public benefactors. Youth requires pleasure,
old age does too. Sameness loses attractive
ness. Clean baseball is a noble stimulant to
players and spectators. You will have the
best people in town, l truly believe, giving
you lift. You need not lack support Shown
. manly disposition on the ball field, the
people will be at your back. Come, then,
awake US all. We are in need Of shaking
up as we'll rs you. Bring out the bats, twirl
WIG u"i', no'uuoi away, pun ophN IA aAo
game, root, yell, and make merry in clean
language. You need balls and bats, hear.
Don't you think you can get these things if
you make an cfforts Appoint some respon-
sible party to manage for you-be guided by
him. Don't let swell headedness attack you,
for you make yourself ridiculous before the
people. Let that manager solicit funds. If
he comes to me have dollar without o
feather Of the eagle missing to give towards
your interests. Let that manager announce
the sum of money realized in every game
through the medium of THE CLARION. He
must handle the money and not the captain.
The captain must obey the manager. Make
up your minds that you will square up old
accounts. Look around for field. Don't
be afraid to work it into condition for the
game. lfa field is worth having it'e worth
care and you must give it. Now put your
heads together. Show that the games still
alive, and then-at 'em.
Yours for the grand old game,
BASEBALL.

division, while the record in the second di-
vision lacks quite a number to make II
complete 1t is not expected that the games
of the third division will be entirely finish
ed before the close of the present week.
The game deciding je championship of
the first division was prayed Saturday night
by W. II. Wahly and Sackett Duryea. Dur
yea Won out after one of the prettiest con-
tests ever seen in this city, thereby going to
the front with a clean record of nine games
won and none lost The game lasted an un-
usually long time and ended with both of
Wahly'e balls for the center wicket return
ing. Wahly had n slight advantage at the
first. but Duryea secured the balls by a
fine stroke and carried them along until he
reached the center. Then the play reached
a stage where Wahly was forced to make
half a dozen long shots in succession SO
well did his opponent place his playing bali

three games and the latter four games yet
to play the result is still in doubt. In the
third division first honors will go, beyond
all doubt, to Baker, who has record of
seven Won and none lost.
The games in the series for the Van
Wickle badge stand, Duryea, 2; Strong, 2.
If the weather permits two games in this
series will be played late this afternoon,
and should each player win one, the decid-
ing game-the series consists OF the best
four out of seveu-will be played this eyen-
ing at o'clock on the courts at Rhode ISL
and avenue and 9th street. Should the two
games this afternoon decide the match.
however Strong and Duryea will play an
exhibition game this evening at the same
hour and place for the edification of those
who desire to witness a game of modern
croquet played by these experts. Should
Duryea retain the raedal it is more than
likely That he will be challenged immediate
Evening star., 1898-09-26

He finally secured them, however, on a
mastery stroke and managed by splendid
close playing to bring both balls to the CEN
ter wicket. Duryea made a fine shot at this
juncture, and when he had finished one of
his balls was a rover. At the next shot
he carried his other ball around and sent
both out. The game was replete with bril-
liant loHg shots, many of them being car
oms against the wooden edge of the court,
and good close play around the wickets.
Wahly congratulated his youthful oppo-
nent at the conclusion of the game, while
the large crowd OF spectators present gave
him an ovation.
Duryea now has Williams to play. Will
liams and Bean have also yet to meet.
The Other Divisions.
In the second division Coleman seems to
have the best chance of first honors, with
Hall a close second, but as the former has
