Friday and Saturday nights, with matt
nee Saturday, is one of the greatest fire
scenes that has ever been produced
upon the stage. 1t is the destruction of
a big cotton mill located near the
gloomy and dismal swamps which
abound in the locality where the action
of the piece is laid. The audience sees
the big building consumed by the fierce
and unchecked flames hears the crack
ling of the burning timbers and watches
the immense waves of thick black
smoke ashley encircle and envelope the
doomed structuer. IT presents a mag
nificent tableau. In addition to this the
audience is not subjected to the usual
discomforts following the old time
method of picturing a building on fire

At one end of the kitchen there was
large cupboard, and over the cupboard
there hung a relic of the Revolutionary
war, that, to my eyes, had all the sa-
credness of household god. 1t was a
fintlock musket that was called Old

borne upon my shoulder when playing
soldier with my schoolmates upon the
turnpike in front of the district school
house.
So much for the kitchen itself. A

that is living in modern houses. The

MY GRANDMoTHER's KITCHEN
An Old Mans Memories of Fireplace
DAVIS

An Old Mans Memories of Fireplace
Days.
The parlor is the grandest room IN
most modern houses. But my grand
mother did not live in modern house
She lived in a very old-fashioned farm
house, and in that house the kitchen
was. in my boyish estimation, by far
+ the grandest room The parlors were
usually closed and Garkened, for only
on great occasions were they used.
But the kitchen was in use every day
in the wear, and it was always pleas
ant room to be in. Everybody, even to
the dog, enjoyed being in it.
How many delightful memories clus-
ter around that old farmhouse kitchen,
for was the Oldest grandchild and L
spent good deal of time there as a
petted guest. The most striking fea-
ture of the room--the one that now
remember with the liveliest pleasure
was the great fireplace. The wood that
was burned in it was drawn into the
room on a strong hand sled. The back
log was often two feet in diameter and
sometimes it would last whole week.
The forestc1 was a large one, and 1t
rested on two large iron fire dogs, or,
as they are now called, andirons.
When this vast fireplace was well filled
and burning brightly, as it always was
upon a cold day in winter, it was a
donderful sight. 1t was in all its glo-
w, however, at night, when the refiec
ton Of it's flames could be seen clearly
through the windows opposite, dancing
weirdly upon the snow banks, where,
as the poets tell us, the witches were
making their tea.
On each side of the fireplace there
was always to be seen an easy-chair.
One of these was occupied by gray
haired old man, who walked with
long staff: the other was rocked easily
to and fro by his aged wife, and they
were the grandparents who made my
boyhood very happy. These good old
people both smoked pipes, and while 1
heartily disapprove of the habit it
really was a picturesque and pleasing
sight to see them so comfortably en-
joying themselves and to watch the
smoke as it passed from their pipes
into the ample fireplace and up the
chimney The fireplace had an old
fashioned neghbor, now never seen in
a modern house. 1t was brick oven,
which used to make me think of the
fiery furnace into which Shadrach, Me-
schech and Abednego were cast. Out
of this oven, so like the fiery furnace,
there came many delicious things.
Most delicious of all, perhaps, We're the

DAIRY BACTERIA CLASSIFIED.

Interesting Feature Set Forth in Report of
Storrs Agricultural Station.
The report Of the Storrs agricultural eN-
pertinent station for 1899 has just been re-
ceived. In addition to the report of the
director Prof. w. 0. Atwater, which gives
brief review of the work of the station
for the year, it contains several articles
by the director and his associates discuss
ing certain departments Of the work In de-
tail. Prof. Fl. w. Conn shows the impor
lance of bringing the dairy bacteria under
distinct classification, as is done in the
case of water bacteria, and describes n
method of classification Of dairy bacteria
which he has developed and found of con-
siderable convenience in his own labora-
tory In the experiments on the action of
bacteria in milk, cream and butter, carried
on by him in behalf Of the station. This
classification is proposed In the hope that it
may supply what is exceedingly necessary
a means whereby dairy bacteriologlsts may
compare species of bacteria in one locality
with those of another-and thus be of aid
in simplifying the study of dairy bacteria.
The report will be sent free on applca-
ton to the agricultural experiment station,
Storrs, Conn.

the river bank, like hermit The fall
was his busy season. AT other times
he could be found at the village stores
swapping stories of his experiences. He
was entertaining in relating narratives
of his experiences, and he was known
to every one in the vicinity of the Quin-
nipiac river north of Grand avenue. 1t
is believed that Davis has left COM

OBITUARY NOTES.
Death of j. p. Baldwin, Well Known
State Street Business Man.

The many friends of Joseph p. Bald
win, proprietor of the cafe and billiard
establishment at 1902 State street, I'M
der the Sparks hotel, were grieved and
surprised to hear of his death. which
took place at his home, 10 Lyon street.
at 10 O'Clock yesterday morning. He
died of apoplexy. He was about forty
six years Of age. TIE report that he was
as well as usual of late is erroneous, as
he had not been feeling we'll for a num-
Der of days, and one of his friends said
last evening that he had not been at his
place of business since last Friday. A
week ago, however, he was apparently
in excellent health.
Yesterday morning shortly after eight
o'clock his wife found that he was very
Ill and in critical condition Drs.
Fleischner and Klenke were at once
summoned. Before they came he said
to his wife: II shall never get over this.
1t will be my DEATH These were the
last words he spoke.
When the physicians arrived shortly
after they at once pronounced the case
a hopeless one. He failed rapidly and
shortly after ten o'clock he breathed his
last. Mr.. Baldwin leaves a wife and
two daughters, Susie, aged nineteen
years, and Frances, aged four years.
He also leaves one brother, Nelson c.
Baldwin, of $50 State street, and two
sisters, Mrs. E. M. Leonard and Mrs.
Robert Manock, both of Pittsfield,
Mass. The arrangements for the funer-
al have not yet been perfected, but it
will probably be held tomorrow after
noon and the interment will be in Ever
green cemetery.
The deceased was born in Windsor
Locks and was a son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Luther Baldwin. He attended school
in Tolland and then went to Windsor
Locks, where he learned the machinist's
trade. He was married to Miss Carrie
Perkins of Suffield, Mass, and about
twenty years ago he came to New Ha-
ven and obtained employment in the
Sweetland Drill and Chuck company.
About twelve years ago he gave up the
machinist's trade and became the pro-
prietor of 1.-THE Welcome" on State
street. He was years ago in business
for some time with c. L. Clark, now
doing business on Church street. He
was a democrat, but did not take any |
very active part in politics. He was
and had been a members of the Elks |
for the past fifteen years, but belonged |
to no other fraternial society.

Hampshire farm, the play being from
the pen of Lotte Blair Parker, elab-
grated by Joseph r. Grismer and the
entire production under the direction of
William A. Brady. The piece is made
up of series of happenings, designed
to portray the simplicity, comedy and
tragedy Of community, the purity and
sweetness of which might run uninter-
rupted forever but for the casting across
of the shadows of the wicked city. This
comes in the form Of the cultivated city

her sweetness of character follows her
out, rescues her from death In the win

repentant remorse, forgives and blesses,
There are variations of refreshing and

of a sombre setting and makes the
spectator feel the lesson is being adj
ministered in pleasing homeopathic

an uninterrupted prosperous career at
