BAD FALL WHILE AT PLAY.
Six Year-Old Boy Found Unconscious on the Street by Rev. MT. Mossman.

Six-Year-Old Boy Found Unconscious on the Street by Rev. MT. Mossman. Little Richard Smith of 182 Brewery street, about six years of age, fell down the stone steps of an area way facing on Greene street, near the cor
 ner of Wooster place yesterday after
 noon, and was found by Rev Mr. Moss- man of the City Missions lying uncon-f soious on the f1agstones with the blood
 pouring from a large gash over his
 right eyebrow, and covering his face.
 MT. Mossman removed the child to the
 nearby office of Dr. Louis M Gom-
 pertz. corner of Wooster place and Greene street. It was some time be-
 fore the blood could be stopped, and several stitches had to be taken to close the wound. After recovering consciousness the little fellow was in dazed condition and could not tell where he lived. It was found, howl ever, from some children who knew him, that his home was at 1S2 Brewery street, where he lived with his uncle, his father being dead. Word was sent there and his uncle soon came for him, and will see that the little boy is well taken care of until he fully recovers.

LIQUOR RAIDS YESTERDAY.
Several Made by Policemen of Grand
 Avenue Precinct

Several Made by Policemen of Grand
 Avenue Precinct
 The police of the Grand avenue pre-
 cinct kept vigilant lookout yesterday
 for violators of the liquor law, and as a
 result three arrests were made. Pa
 trolmen Connolly and Nettleton saw j evidence that liquor was being sold at ' the apartments of Hannah Donohue over her saloon at the corner of Chapel and East streets. The policemen en- tered the place, and on the floor over the saloon they found a number of per- sons drinking. Mrs. Donohue said that they were some of her New York friends, and that she was treating them This story did not go, however and the facts will be laid before the prosecuting attorney to-day.
 Patrolmen McAllen and Flynn ar rested Edward Ford, who keeps sa- loon at No. 250 East street, on the charge of selling liquor without a H. cense Patrolmen McDermott and J. Roche arrested Daniel McNamara, of No. 1855 Chapel street, and Patrolmen P. McKeon and Egan arrested Otto Huber, of No. 969 State street, on this same charge. It is charged that these, three men, who had liquor licenses last year, sold last month after their li- censes expired and without securing new license They were released on bonds.
 About 5:45 o'clock Patrolmen Connol- ly and Nettletori made raid at sa- loon at No. 224 Wallace street, conduct ed in the name of a man named Culli- nan, hut said to be owned by Hugh Christy. who has been arrested many times for liquor law violation. The po- licemen yesterday saw some men com ing from the rear of the saloon, and, walking around there, they saw Christy at the back door with a glass of beer in his hand. When he saw the police men he emptied the beer on the ground. Going into the building the policemen found some men drinking in a room upstairs. The evidence will be laid before the prosecuting attorney to- day.

INTERNATIONAL TRACK GAMES

The American Athletes Will be in
 Charge of Captains Sheldon and Will
 lis.
 It was authoritatively announced last night that Captain Sheldon, of the Yale track team, and Captain Willis, of the Harvard team for 1902, will have charge of the American team which will compete with the combined Oxford and Cambridge teams in New York in September, regardless of the former statements that the team would be un- der the leadership of Captain Fincke and Captain Hallowell, the present cap tains Of the Yale and Harvard teams, respectively.
 The members of the Yale and Har- yard track teams for this year will, of course, compete, but it was deemed best to have the men who will be in college another year take charge of the inter- ests of the American athletes.

The whole was one that gladdened the hearts of the children and reflects much credit on those who had the arrangements in charge

AT THE CHURCH OF THE MES
 SIAH

Beautiful flowers in profusion were tastefully arranged within the chancel of the Church of the Messiah yester- day morning at the childrens service. The exercises were interesting and edi- flying and consisted of recitations and songs by the children of the Sunday school, remarks by the superintendent, Mrs. Mary Babb, an address to the children by Charles Gay and brief talk by R. M Sheridan. The choir sang several choice selections, adding to the enjoyment of the occasion.
 AT CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH,
 WEST HAVEN, YESTERDAY AF-
 TERNOON.
 The annual children's day exercises of the West Haven Congregational church were held yesterday afternoon at the vesper service and every class of the Sunday school was represented by it's full number. The different classes took part in the exercises by recitations, singing, etc., and all made excellent showings.
 Rev. MT. Squires, the pastor of the church, made a brief address to the members of the Sunday school and told them how glad he was to be able to announce that there had been no deaths of members of the school since the exercises of a year ago. When a member of the school dies it is the GUS tom to present the family with large wreath of flowers as a gift of renem- brance from the other members, but this year it was unnecessary. It is also the custom to give each little boy or girl whose seventh birthday came since the last annual children's service, handsome Bible. This year Rev. MT. Squires distributed twenty eight of these Bibles among the scholars, this number being the largest since the GUS tom was introduced a number of years ago.
