CHILDREN'S CHRISTMAS FUND.
 Charity is evidently one of the attrib- utes of New Haven's citizens; and the plan to give the children of New Ha- ven's poor an afternoon at the Hyperi- on, so generously given over for their pleasure by MT. Bunnell is well on it's way to success.
 When Mayor Farnsworth arrived at his office in the city hall yesterday morning an envelope containing $17 in contributions was in his mail Three days more still remain in which to swell the fund, and in that time enough will undoubtedly be contributed to make the requisite amount.

A SUGGESTION TO THE CHARITA- BLE
Store Open Evenings

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 In an evening paper of last week was a call to the public asking for donations of food to feed vast number of New Haven's poor, or, in other words, to give Christmas dinner to hundreds of people. It came to my mind as a close observer that there are few in this city who fully understand the worthy poor and one of the few is Miss s. J. Hume of the City Missions, who goes about doing her work, not for praise, but in a quiet way, to make others happy and relieve the needs of the worthy poor.
 am sure good, charitable people who wish to help others that are needy and worthy will this year aid her in her work among poor women and children, in whose homes she is like sunshine

 DIR. MONsON ESTATE.
 The estate of the late Dr. Monson of
 Elm street may be reopened in case
 an important legal suit is settled favor-
 ably to the heirs. Dr. Mcnson, one of
 the best known physicians of this city, | died about twenty years ago. It was believed at the time that all the proper ty had been turned over to the estate, but such was not the case. It was
 learned yesterday through one of the friends of Attorney c. B. Whitcomb,
 that large suit is now pending in the west, which is likely to bring consid- erable money to the Monson heirs. Ac-
 cording to the story, Dr. Monson was induced, through the agent in this city
 of western law firm, to trade some of his property in the Ninth ward for lands in Minnesota. The western prop
 erty was not worth much at that time, but it has since increased greatly in value.
 Just how much the property is worth is not exactly known, but the value Is
 estimated at $15O,O0O0. The plaintiffs in the case are representing that the prop l erty was secured of Dr. Monson by fraud, and on that ground they will
 attempt to overthrow the present title City Court-Criminal Stde-Judge Dow. In the city court yesterday morning | before Judge Dow Antonio Milano was | fined $2 and costs of $S for failure to send his child to school. A similar 1 charge against August Eiserbart of 6O5 East street was continued until Janu- ary nisi.

 of the peace, was allowed to go upon

 | In the case of Stephen Lille, charged | with non-support of his wife, the court gave him a warning and continued the l case until January 21.
