[FROM THE NEW HAVEN REGIsTER.l

Newtown, July 24.-Every body took a
half holiday in this village yestel day at
ternoon and turned out to witness the
corner stone laying of the new public Ii
! the principal sites on NewGown street.
The weather was just right for such q
proceeding and long before o'clock, the
hour for che ceremonies to commence,
people swarmed the street aid grounds
surrounding the foundation for the new
building. All were in good humor and
hand shaking was in order.
A large company looked upon the
building which was being erected to the
memory of an old and respected citizen
and rector of the first Episcopal chul Oh
in Newtown during the time Of the Revo-
lutionary war.
The gentleman in question was Rev
John Beach, who has long since. died and is
restil & in the Epicospal burying ground
in Newtown. The building which will
cost $4,000 or more, was donated to the
Newtown Library association by Miss
Rebecca Beach Of New Haven, direct
descendant of john Beach, formerly of
New Haven.
John Beach, a son of Francis G.. Beach,
the ex-postmaster in New Haven, and a
nephew to Miss Beach, the donator, was
present and assisted in the services. He

NEWS OF THE WORLD.

The mangled and mutilated re-
mains of Alexander Main, chief Of
policeof steveston, B. C,gerefound
last night in a partly made grave
nearea cluster of Chinese shacks,
two miles from Steveston.
Main has been missing since
Saturday, when he went to one Of
the Chinese cabins to search for
some missing tools, believed to
have been stolen. Mains head
had been severed from the body;
his arms and legs broken in sew
eral places, and the trunk hacked
into small bits. Two Chinese are
under arrest, charged with the
murder.
Steveston is a fishing village
where are located canneries, and
during the canning season has a
floating population of five or six
thousand Chinese, Italians and
japanese.
1t is learned that no instructions
were sent from Washington to Mr..
Stornr the limited States minister
at Madrid, relative to the presen-
tation Of regrets for the extention
to the Due d'Arcos, the Spanish
minister here, of an invitation to

words, Mr.. Storer acted according
to his own judgment and upon his
own responsibility III any represen-
tations he may have made to the
Spanish foreign Office on this sub
ject.
1t is not to be inferred from this
statement that his action, even it
it is as reported, is disapproved
here. On the contrary, it is de-
clared that his course was in thor
ough accord with the proprieties
Of official etiquette and that he
showed excellent judgment in an

have been disagreeab1e to meet.

AN OLD HOUSE.

"How easy it is to forget his
tory" remarked the man who
keeps posted on the events of early
New York days, as well as upon
the things of the present. stProb-
ably not one in a thousand citizens
recognized in the recent sale of
the house at 63 Prince street, the
old residence of President Monroe
when he retired from the White
house after his eight years of ser
vice as President. He died there
on July 4, 1881. The house is just
a block east Of Broadway, and
looks much the same as it did
when it was the residence Of Presi-
dent Monroe, only more dilapidat-
ed. One still sees the Colonial
columns and fnted arch over the
doorway, looking now like soiled
bits of cast off finery. Part Of the
house is the headquarters of a fur
rier, and / am told that a few years
ago it was a billiard table factory,
and later a Viennese and then a
Hungarian restaurant. The house
has suffered badly through its
changes, and before another year
has closed every yestige of it will
be gone. 1t is somewhat pathetic
to think of the last years of Presi-
dent Monroe as being spent prac-
tically upon the bounty of his
friends, his fortune having gone at
the end of his active political life.
He lived in the Prince street house
with his daughter, Mrs. Samuel L.
Gouvenelr, whose husband, man
| of wealth and high standing in the
social life of the city, was post
master when Monroe came to live
with them. President Monroe was
buried in the old cemetery on Sec
ond street, but in 1863, his body
was removed to the Hollywood
cemetery, in Richmond, Anew

HENRY DEMAS DEAD.

Henry Demas, the negro who
played such a prominent part in
the politics of Louisiana died on
Thursday last in New Orleans,
from heart trouble.
Demas' political life practically
ended by the adoption Of the con
stitution Of 1898, which disfran-
chlsed the colored population OF
the State. Up to that time he was
power in the State.
Demas last figured prominently
in connection with the naval office
to which lie was appointed by the
president. No matter what else
may have been sad against The
negro leader, he was certainly a
shrewd and far seeing politician.
AS a matter Of fact the present
collector Of the port, Mr.. A. l..
Wmberly, owes his political prom
inence to Demas, who picked him
up when he was but an obscure
element in politics and placed him
in the chair of leadership. Politl-
cally, Wimberly was very small
potato until Demas nodded him
into shape.
The death of Demas removes the
last of the great negro political
leaders who tlourished in various
sections Of Louisiana prior to the
adoption of the Constitution OF
1898. In life he was principally
noted for his unfiinching courage,
which it has often been asserted,
was the secret of all his success.

Passenger boats propelled ex,

These novel boats, the trial trips
of which have proved wonderful

French engineer, Mr.. ri ca, for the
company of Suburban Omnibus
Boats, which will employ them,
Notwithstanding their luxurious
equipment, for the transportation
of ordinary travellers at a reduced
rate. They will run at great speed,
without recharglng, managed by

These boats will be charged by

ly became addicted to the habit of
"taking his'n straight" be it either
whiskey or beer. A few drinks
would make him feel good and he
would try to crow, but could only
Hap his wings, for being to young
the voice was not there.
After the result was known this

wanted to be happier, so he defisd
the law concerning liquors for

He could not stand; he could not

At Democratic Headquarters
which took quite
A Prominent part in the
Iberia Election,
Taking his Whiskey and
Beer regularity and Got
On a Blind Jag when the
result was Announced.

No rooster that we ever knew
of. ever had the peculiar experience
of certain Patriotic young chan
ticler which came IN from the coun-
try with a democratic delegation
ard took up his residence at Dem
ocratic Headquarters, where he
quickly developed propensi.ies nev-
er before heard of in rooster, es-
peciallY one from the country, and
he became ONE OF THE BOYS.
This especial rooster, it is sad to
say, Is very young, and while he
has never given anyone a clew TO
his reasons for his early act in
throwing his life to the dogs, 1t is
believed to be slther a case Of dis
appointed love, or that he wants to
be the next candidate for Sheriff
at the regular Democratic party in
four years. Whatever his reasons
are, he is a RED HOT CHICKEN.
This rooster, though apparently
not SIX months old, became tired
of country life, and came to. town
