DRINKING WITH MEALS.

Medical men have pointed out that man Is probably the only animal that drinks while eating, showing how the laws of nature, which are instinctively obeyed by mans inferior, are calmly ignored by him. They recommend dis crimination if one must drink while eat ing, and say that neither flooding the stomach with hydrant water nor ab- sorbing medicinal waters at the table, under the pretense that they are good for this or that ailment, Is very judi cious.
 On the other hand, they remark that a natural effervescent water such as Apollinaris, dietic table water, can ad- vantageously be drunk at meals as 1t promotes digestion, and the danger of diluting the food with an inordinate vol ume of water is avoided, because an ordinary amount of effervescent water is as satisfactory to the thirst as a much larger quantity of still water

HUNGARIAN BOYS BAND.
Organization of Thirty-five Musicians
 Coming to Poli's Theater

Organization of Thirty-f1ve Musicians
 Coming to Polls Theater.
 Manager Poli was interviewed by a Courier reporter at Union station last evening, just as he stepped from New York train, and MT. Poli was particu- larly happy, for in the course of con- versation it transpired that he had just closed contract-quite unexpectedly with the most expensive vaudeville fea- ture in B. F. Keiths forces.
 Some time ago MT. Keith engaged for his theaters the celebrated Hungarian Boys band, thirty-flve members, from seven to sixteen years of age, who are wards of the Austrian government, at whose expense they have been edu- cated.
 These boys play magnificently full line of instruments composing regu- lar military band, and they are under strict military discipline. It was neces- sary to obtain a furlough to permit the American visit, and this furlough ex- pires in six weeks.
 While in New York yesterday MT Poli ascertained that there was chance to get the band for next week, and although he already had full show booked, he determined not to let this chance go by, although it will take the price of an ordinary show to engage the band alone. Negotiations were rapidly completed and the contract was signed, assuring the appearance here next week of the celebrated band.

 DEPRECIATION OF FARM LANDS.
 The way real estate has declined in value in Connecticut towns in the last thirty years is surprising. A case to illustrate this much discussed point oc- cured in Bethlehem the other day, where very desirable farm of sixty acres or more with good buildings on it, was sold under the hammer at less lHdH $IoUV SIpdlieT llBuIe tndH IL would cost to replace the barns. At the same time tract of land which the former farmer bought twenty years ago at $1,000 was knocked down at $S5. All this doesn't go to prove that farming cannot be made to pay. There are many good farmers in Bethlehem to- day and men that are laying aside money, too. But it goes to show that the hustlng, attractive life of the cities is the drawing card which entices the boys, and many of the men also, away from the farms. But it would seem that country real estate had touched the lowest notch. A reaction has already | set in and is being felt in some country places But ten or twenty years hence We look to see the tide turn heavier still toward the farms.-Newtown Bee.

THE CONDITIONS IN CUBA
OBSERVATIONS OF fl FORMER NEW
 HAVEN MINISTER.

I
 Missions in the IsI9nd, Considers tn
 Future Very Optim Is Aic-NOt Yet Safe
 However, to Withdraw the strong
 Arm or the United States.
 The following private letter was re ceived, Wednesday, May 2, in this city from Rev. E. P. Herrick, a former New Hayener, who is superintendent of mis- sions in Cuba:
 Havana, April 2S.
 My Dear MT. LA pressure of duties which has been ceaseless has made il difficult for me to find time to write you upon the subject of ouh talk.
 Indeed, needed a few months of ob- servation in order to be able to give an | intelligible account of the Cubans and my impressions of their gifts and capa- bilities, &c.
 My sphere of vision Is limited, as l deal principally with the "humbler folk" but my experiences of six months confirm the very optimistic impressions had of the future of Cuba.
 Evolution Is always slow process, and Cuba is evoluting not as rapidly as she should but there Is steady progress. | Mrs. Fl. is at Winter Park She goes | north May 26th. | It will not be safe for some time to come to withdraw the strong hand or | theTnited States. The memories Of the | bitter strife are too fresh. Too many would plan to take revenge on former oppressors.
 Life and property would not be safe. The Cuban needs years of patient train ing along political and economic lines His conception of the duties of citi- zen are crude He yet follows the model of the Spanish don and enjoys greatly to show authority. He is as fond of the emoluments of office as the average American politician.
 The cities are full of people who should be at work in the country, and prosperity will never come until agri- cultural interests revive.
 The negro element is restless and self assertive and there Is likely to be much trouble in the future over division of of- fees and mutual social relations. The southern ideas on the race question are more and more prevailing.
 The Cuban is suspicious of the Ameri- can, while on the whole he Is fond Of him and very desirous to learn English. The moneyed men favor annexation. The people shout for liberty and inde- pendence,
 The hope of Cuba lies in her schools and evangelical missions, who are training up new generation to under stand the duties of intelligent citizen ship
 One thousand children are in the Pro- testant schools of Havana. Eighty thousand are enrolled in the public schools of the island.
 The Cuban is capable of receiving moral and religious ideas. Over eighty members are an interesting set and compare we'll with the average Ameri- can audience.
 We have some parasites, many self seekers. but many good, noble, true men and women.
 We have "all sorts and conditions" of men, but give great hopes of Cuba un- der American tutelage and training. Rector McGee called on me. He is good man and very popular here On the whole I like Cuba and the Cu- bans, and enjoy my work, which is by no means a sinecure Klndest regards to your wife and Richard.
 Yours sincerely,
 F. P. HERRICK. Rox 723

THE LATE H. F. NETTLEToN OF

VEST f1A EN. The funeral services over the remains of H. Edward Nettleton were held yes terday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at his late residence, 45 Center street. He was
 deacon in the West Haven Congrega- tional church, and Rev N J. Squires
 the pastor of the church, was the off,
 ciating clergyman. The remains were inferred in the Oak Grove cemetery in West Haven. AS a man of the strictest integrity and uprightness of character, engaged In business there for nearly fifty years, few appropriate words are
 due to his memory.
 Born in the adjoining town of Ml-
 ford the early loss of his father made
 self-support necessary, and he there
 learned the trade of shoemaker in his youth. Later he removed to New York state, temporarily, returning to Milford and afterward came to West Haven In
 the early sos, where, as clerk, he en- tered the only store in the place, then conducted by the late Donaldson s. Thompson.
 Since that time until the last two or three years, he has been actively en- gagged in the grocery business. In 1854 he established himself in the store at the intersection of Elm street and Kim berley avenue, which business has grown to be the largest of It's kind in the place, and Is now conducted by his son, Edward l.. Nettleton.
 In the same year Mir. Nettleton mar ried Emma Smith. daughter of Hubbard Smith of West Haven.
 The deceased leaves to mourn his loss widow and two sons, Edward l.. and Harry E. Nettleton, the latter having been for many years chief clerk in the office of the general superintendent of the New York, New Haven and Hart ford railroad He Is also survived by one brother George w. Nettleton, resid- ing in California. Mrs. Francis F. Clark, wife of Attorney, James Gardner Clark, Mrs Millbank, and c. Williston Goodsell and Edward l.. Goodsell of New York city are nieces and nephews of the deceased. Living in California are also Mrs. T. T. Feichstadt and Charles F. Nettleton, his niece and nephew.
 As a deacon of the First Congrega- tional church and one of the trustees of it's funds, as a man of exemplary and quiet Christian life, generous and char itable always, especially so in judging his fellow men-as an honest, conscien- tious and upright business man, he won | the respect of those who knew him and endeared himself to his family who | have the sympathy of all in their afflic- | ton.
