EUROPE REVISITED"

Professor William Fl. Brewer delv-
Scientific school course Friday evening
at North Sheffield hall, taking for his
subject the changes which have &C.
Cured in Europe between his first visit
there in 1855 and his last in 1898. He
told of the condition of our own country
in 1855, when Pierce was president and
slavery the topic uppermost in the mind
of every American, and how he and his
American fellow students at Heidelberg
discussed 1t. His woes at the hands of
the American custom officials were in
teresting, and showed how very much
we are behind our continental friends in
the reforming Of this matter. In 1856
Professor Brewer returned to America
in the steerage of the Kangaroo with
a young Englishman as his immediate
companion, who has since risen to an
honored position in a great American
university His recital of their attacks
of ''mal de mer' were highly amusing.
He returned last year in the palatial
'Furst Bismarck" and thought con-
trast could never be so great as between
its magnificent equipment and that (es-
pecially the steerage) of the old Kan
CARGO"
European changes are even greater
than American. When he entered Hell
delberg German cities In government
and sanitation were In deplorable
state but now are the opposite, being
we'll governed, we'll kept and healthy.
He related many humorous anecdotes Of
his student life; his trials and tribula-
lions caused by forgetting his students
pass in the city; described the unlversi-
ty prison, the historic old Heidelberg
castle and the city itself.
The latter half of the lecture was de-
voted to stereoscopic Views of the ga-
ciers of Mont Blanc as they appeared
when he first saw them, and again in
1898, showing their retreat and gradual
and discussing the vari-
Gus theories advanced as to the cause.

Home of Jesse Davis Destroy cd by Fire
Hoard of relief TO Meet.

The home of Jessie Davis, an old col
ored woman, who is at present serving
out sentence in jail, was destroyed by
fire late last Saturday night. The
origin of the fire is a mystery, as Mrs
Davis has not been In the house for
over a month It is thought that
tramps had gone in to sleep. and they
set fire to it, but 1t may have originated
in other ways. Mrs. Davis was arrest
ed some time ago on the charge of har-
boring lewd women, and the place has
been in disrepute for a year or more.
The house was completely destroyed
as the flames We're discovered too late
for the fire department to be of any
service. 1t is situated about a mile
from the West Haven railroad depot.
near the water reservoir.
A number of the young men employ
ed at the West Haven Buckle com
pany's shop will give a masquerade
dance in the town hall on Friday night
of this week.
On next Monday night, March 20, the
board of warden and burgesses Of the
town will meet in special session as
board of relief to consider the appeals
from taxation that have been made by
a number of the residents Of the town.

Its Coming Entertainment Easter w

AsS coming entertain ment Easter w eek
Our people are promised something
entirely unique in the way of stage
entertainment in the comic opera
Prince Ramon" which is to be pre-
sented Easter week under the auspices
or Admiral Foote post, G. A. r. 1t Is
said that nothing approaching 1t has
ever been attempted by local talent
So perfectly are the principals being
trained by Captain C. w. Eddy and
so well have they caught the spirit of
his direction that they execute the diff
ferent roles assigned to them as skill
fully as If they had been playing the
parts all their lives. Indeed, it is said
that one would be puzzled to differen-
tiate between their relative skill and
that of professionals so easily and to
the manner born do they execute the
details allotted to them. Throughout
the entire opera, comedy is exquisitely
blended with song and action, and the
pretty plot Of the opera is interspersed
with fancy drills, dances and special
ties. Over three hundred people will be
used In the production of the opera.

ABOUT YALE'S PRESIDENCY.

Among the numerous rumors of the
day concerning the presidency of Yale
the name of Professor Bernadotte Per-
rim of the Greek department of the uni

nent mention. The members of the cor

A FLUID has been discovered by
two Chicago professors that is said
to prevent decay in the human
body. 1t is the Emphatic fluid OF
young goats hypodermically in
jected, and is claimed to be the
secret of eternal youth. 1t is
stated as fact that a Chicago dog
IA years old was given a dose and
forthwith became Gas lively as a
puppy" The members of the old
Rathdrum ring will now kick them
selves because the discovery was
not made sooner. Had the lynn
phatic fluid of a few young goats
been injected into some of the old
ring horses few years ago they
might now possess life enough to
draw the golden chariot. But they
are dead as Bucephulus, Alexan-
der's famous horse. The lymph
of all the goats in Christendom,
VIII ether used hypodermically or
otherwise, would not cause pull
sation. Yes, they are dead, dead.
Reckless extravaganza caused their
downfall.
