born ofChristian parents he was
baptized in his infancy by Rev. Wal
ter, and in his matIrer years he at
tended catechetical lectures and was
received into the Reformed church
by the rite of confirmation. His
life and conduct to his end were in
accordance with Gods wish and COM
mand AS he had been taught, and as
he found it there by his own search
ing. As Il true lsraelite his constant
efforts and struggle were to be
living church member, and thus show
his obedience tohis God and Saviour.
He was married to Susanna Goss,
who thirty years ago last May pre-
ccdcd her husband to the eternal
world. The fruit of this marriage

Last Day for Registration

September 9Th and 9TH are the
last days for registering voters in
order to qualify them to vote at the
next general election. On those
two days the assessors will sit the

duty of every man to vote and to do
this with little trouble to himself
his name ought to be on the registry
list. Ifhe is not registered he can
not pay taxes, and if he has not paid
his tax he cannot vote. Don't for

or 9TH, or at any time between this
and that time most convenient.

SIDE DOORS MUST BE OPEN
At the Second Regiment Armory ON
Junior Promenade Night.

Fire Marshal Fancher yesterday af-
ternoon visited the armory, which has
been put in shape for the Yale Junior
promenade. The marshal made the
visit to see that the fire regulations
concerning exits for places of public
assemblage are complied with. He
found that the regulations had been
disregarded and that the two side en-
by having boxes built in front of them
and that only the one front, main en-
trance had been left open. He informed
the committee that it would be neces-
sary in order to comply with the regu-
lations to open the two side entrances.
The committee protested strongly, say
each side entrance, had been sold and
that considerable trouble would be
caused If the committee was obliged to
tear down the two boxes. Mr.. Fan
cher informed the gentlemen that he
would think the matter over and make
known to them his decision later
Later in the afternoon he again Wis
tied the armory and informed members
of the Prom. committee who were
present that it was imperative that the
Whiting street and the George street
entrances be opened. The committee
then proposed that portion of one box
on each side be torn out, thereby per-
hitting the boxes to be used, although
narrowing up the approaches to the
doors so that they would be somewhat
narrower than the side doors. This
proposition met the approval of the fire
marshal and he will go to the armory
this morning and will superintend the
removal of portion of the two side
boxes opposite the doors so that they
will comply with the fire rules. In
previous years the side boxes have been
built in front of the doors and it is
not until this year that the authorities
have taken cognizance Of the fact that
the regulations We're not being COM
piled with
Fire Marshal Fancher said last eve
ming that he considered it imperative
for public safety in case of fire in the
armory on the night Of the promenade
that both side entrances be left open.
He said that although in case of fire
persons in the armory might climb
over the boxes to the side doors, yet
most of those present will be strangers
and not familiar with the exits of the
armory. Therefore it will be better to
have both side doors in plain sight.
Mr.. Fancher also called attention to the
fact that the decorations of the armory
for the promenade are of flimsy ma
terial and if they once caught fire would
burn quickly and that the necessity of
easy exit was therefore the more i'm
perative. He said that he had no de-
sire to have in New Haven a halocaust
such as that which took place in Paris

THE DAY BEFORE THE PROM
TEAS AND GERMANS BIZ VARIOUS
CLASSES and SOCIETIES.

Several Held Yesterday Afternoon and
Last Evening-The Junior German in
Alumni Hall and the Glee Club Concert
We're the Features of this Day--Fresh-
men in Evidence Last Night.
The freshmen had merry time at
the Glee club concert at the Hyperion
last night and they created fun and
amusement for all those present. In
less than ten minutes from the time
that the doors were opened the upper
gallery, which was especially reserved
for the freshmen, was crowded to its
utmost capacity with members OF both
1900S. and 1901. They came prepared to-
have good time, and they had 1t.
They sprung several new and very fun
ny novelties, one especially causing fun
for all. 1t was a brownie" with the
numerals "1901" on it's breast. The
boys were clever enough to swing 1t OH
wires, and thus save it from possible
loss by the breaking of its support.
The little brownie kept up merry
dance right in time with all the songs
and instrumental numbers. Balloons
of both paper and rubber were sus-
pended from many points in the gallery.
Small cards, large cards and medium
sized cards, by hundreds, were thrown
down onto the stage. into the audiences
and everywhere. The large class ban
ners of 19OoS. and 1901 were swung
across the gallery. Yelling and singing
was frequent, but not once was num-
ber of the programme in any way in-a
terfered with by the boisterous fresh
men. The warning of the faculty That
in case they disturbed the peace Of the
audience during the rendition Of any
selection, their athletic teams would be-
taken away had the desired effect
| A better concert has seldom, if ever,
been given by any Yale Organization
| thirty-second annual. The music WAS
bright and catchy, and sung with a VIII
that made it unusually entertaining.
There was not the usual long wait be--s
| tween the numbers as they followed
one another in quick succession. Mr..
Sheehan and his gargling solo work
was an entirely new feature and
caught the audience who would not lets
him cease until he had sung five en-
cores.
Several new songs were sung. The
one entitled bluff by Mr.. Wads
worth and club was very unique and
the words appropriate to the present
passing events in student life at Yale.
The other soloists were Mr.. Van Buren,.
Mr.. Parker and Mr. Butler. A quartet
composed Of Messrs. Schneider, Butler,
| Wadsworth and MCLAUGHLIN amused
the audience with several happily rem
/ dered negro melodies. Both clubs are
we'll balanced, and the results Of their
careful training was very much evi-|
| denced by their work last night.

How New England May Work Out Her

meeting of the New England Free
Trade league took place at the United
States hotel tonight. William H. White

was Freedom in Industry and in Gov

Boston delivered an address on "The
Position of the Workingmen in the Mat

subject Mr.. Bowner said that we should
open to the world our products. New
England is fast losing her original ad-
vantage-water power The develop
ment of her resources is now being sue
ceeded by steam and electricity. New
England cannot compete with the cheap
labor of the south and must apply a
cunning hand to work out her own SAL

Charges of Unministerial Conduct-Ehort

South Norwalll, Conn, Jan. 24.-The
ex-parte council of the Congregational
ministers of the West Fairfield conso-

South Norwalk Congregational church
this afternoon to hear and consider the
report of the committee appointed by
the council January IS, when the alleg-
ed unminsterial conduct of Rev. c. NJ.
Arthur, pastor Of the Norfield Congre-
gational church at Weston was made
the subject of investigation. The coun-
Gil met in executive session and a pro-

but no action was taken on the COM

reached an agreemnt with Mr.. Arthur,

been such as to entitle him to any

can agree to hold such a mutual coun-
ell the date decided upon is Tuesday,
February 8. If they cannot agree, then
the ex-parte council will again meet

of the whole case, but it was deemed
a wiser course by the ministers who
met to-day. in order, if possible, to keep

DUFF BREAKS HIS FAST.
Ate Last Evening for the First Time Since
the Horrible Murder.

Ate Last Evening for the First Time Since
the Horrible Murder.
Murderer Edward A. Duff last night
for the first time broke the fast which
he had kept since the night on which he
brutally shot down his wife and moth
er-in-law at As Greene street, perpetrat-
ing one of the most horrible murders
that ever shocked the state. For five
days Duff had refused to eat, giving
the attendants at the jail to understand
that he feared to eat as he thought that
they were trying to poison him. On one
occasion about two days ago he said,
when asked If he did not want some
thing to eat, Il know you want to make
away with me, and I guess I wont
eat anything"
Last evening, however he could hold
out no longer and requested that he be
given something to eat. A hearty sup
per was taken to him and he ate raven
ously. He would not, however, talk,
and still refuses to answer any ques-
tions or to talk about the murder His
moodiness seems to be wearing off and
be appears watchful and suspicious of
everyone who comes near him. He has
received no visitors since DIR. Bacon Wis
tied him to examine him as to his san
