Now Being Shown in Mailhouser's Win
 down on Orange Street.
 A fine war picture that Is presently attracting considerable attention is on view in the window of the Pride of New Haven cigar store on Orange street. It represents the famous Black Watch Forty-second Royal Highlanders previ- ous to the charge at the Heights of Alma. It will be remembered that this was the Scottish regiment that received such massacre at the hands of the Boens recently when under the command of it's veteran and gallant colonel, Wauchope.
 The picture Is splendid specimen of the lithographer's art. In the fore ground is shown the Heights of Alma. wlich the Highlanders took at the point of the bayonet. In front of the High flanders Is seen the familiar figure of Lord Colin Campbell giving the word of command, Forward, Forty-second.' while beside him on horseback is the then gallant colonel of the regiment, Cluny MacPherson. In the background are also seen the famous Ninety-third Highlandere and the remainder of the Highland brigade ready to reinforce the Black Watch.

 company, as receiver for the defunct l Connecticut Life Insurance company of | Waterbury, against Lewis A. Pratt and John B. Dohertyt it's former officers, have been returned to the superior court with the cases for the February term. The suits number three in all.
 and ask for damages of over $35,000.
 The first complaint alleges the defend- ants made contract with E. P. Schmidt of New York, to act as general agent of the company for the states of New York and New Jersey; that un- der his contract he was to remit to the company stated balance and did not that in 1895 he owed the com

 The second suit seeks to recover about sS. 900, which it is alleged was wrong fully paid out of the mortuary fund of the company under as many claims un- der life policies. The specific allegation is that there has been returned as paid that much more than was actually paid and that the balances were not return ed to the mortuary fund.
 The third suit is to recover on a promissory note for $10,000 and interest made by S. T. Dutton and endorsed by H. w. Munsell and M. J. Munsell, which was given for four. months time and which was never paid. The note purports to be secured by mortgage on the vessel Jennie B. which secur- ity, 1t is alleged was insufficient, of which fact they ought to have had Knowledge. t

THE GET ONE" CLUB.
Novel Organization Formed at the Y.
 M c. A. Last Night.

ANoNSi VI OiSdAlAdtLOll rOrlleu at tIe l
 M. c. A. Last Night. The first annual meeting of the mem was held last night in the rooms of the association and was largely attended, nearly every church in the city being represented. The committee is compos- ed of representatives of every church in this city and is practically new organ ization
 A new feature of the associat ton was established last night in the formation of what will be known as the Get One" club. The club is made up of the mem bers of the membership committee and the voluntary members of the associa- tion, and the purpose is for each mem- Der of the club to get one new member for the association. Then each new member of the association will make it his object to secure one member, there by keeping steady growth in member ship.
 It is believed by the formation of the Get One' club that the Y. M. c. A. will increase in strength and certainly better way to add new names to the membership list could not have been hit upon. Each new member of the asso- ciation will receive a very handsome badge, the official badge of the interna- tional committee of the Young Mems Christian association.
 An inducement to secure members has been offered by the gymnasium commit tee. They will give each member who secures five new names a ticket to the annual banquet to be held in April. This event is one of the biggest of the year in the Y. M. c. A., and an excel- lent opportunity to partake thereof If given to any member.
