Thirty-three Years in Reformatory
 Work, Eighteen at State School.

WOfk, ElSHleeu dL cIdIe SCHOOL.
 After thirty-three years service in state reformatory work, eighteen of which were spent at the state school for boys i'll this city, says the Meriden Record, MT and Mrs John Gallagher. supervisor and matron of Cottage A. left that institution Tuesday at the re- quest of Superintendent Charles NJ. Williams, who served official notice on them. August 6, demanding that their resignations be handed in immediate ly, to take effect not later than Sep tember 3.
 MT and Mrs Gallagher have taken up their residence at 242 Cook avenue. Their departure from the state school is regretted by almost the entire staff at the institution, it is said.
 A reporter called upon MT Gallagher last evening for an interview regard ing his dismissal. When asked if he voluntarily resigned, he replied:
 NO, sir, not until forced to do so.''
 What have you to say about your discharge? Were any charges pre- ferred against you?''
 Not to my knowledge" he answer ed.
 While away an your vacation this summer were you called back q week earlier because of mutiny among your boys who were i'll charge of I. c. Weeks ?' M
 "I was called home suddenly but do not care to say any more about this matter" MT Gallagher said.
 Mir Gallagher said MT Weeks is the young man who was assaulted some time ago by two inmates, but he was recently discharged.
 A reporter was informed that no complaint was ever made against Mir Gallagher since he was appointed su- pervisor in 1883, until Superintendent Williams took charge. MT Gallagher served underN Nfessrs Howe, Thatcher Coburn and Perrin.

SIMPSONS HEALTH.
He May Not Be Able To Testify In
 Schley Case

He May Not Be Able To Testify In
 Schley Case.
 Bar Harbor, Sept 5.-The friends of Rear Admiral Sampson do not conceal their fears that the Admiral may be compelled ito abandon his cherished plan to appear as witness against Schley in the court of inquiry, on ac- count of i'll health. The family of the admiral is anxious to prevent de- tails of the admiraTs condition from reaching the public. but Mrs Sampson has admitted to friends outside of the immediate family circle that her hus- bands condition is causing especial un- easiness. in view of the fact that un- certainties are beginning to develop both in his mental and physical pow CTS.
 It has been we'll known here since the admiral's arrival from Boston that he has been unable to attend to his per sonal correspondence. His visits to his neighbors have been rare enough to occasion comment, and he has invariably been accompan- led by one or more members of ilis household whenever he has left the AOuoC, AO uldtleE- lOE HOW SnOTL all HD- sence. The whole atmosphere about his home suggests the solicitude of the family, and implies their conviction that the admirars condition is far more serious than they are willing to admit publicly:
 Washington, eSpt 5.-The navy de- partment has no official information as to the condition of Rear Admiral Sampson. Some private letters have been received, however, rather favor able in tone. One of these came about week ago from Mrs Sampson to judge Advocate General Lemly, the admiraPs wife having at tended to certain correspondence ow- ing to his indisposition. Mrs Sampson said that the admiral was improved.
 Rear Admiral Schley has made a request of the navy department that number of witnesses whom hA ex- poets to call before the court of in- quiry be brought to Washington at this time in order to permit of confer ences between them and counsel. In response to this request. Acting Secre- tary Hackett yesterday advised the admiral that if he will furnish a list of those he desires to come they will be brought here as rapidly as circum- stances permit.

THE MAYORS VETO
Said to Be Ready in Case of the
 Walker Award.
THERE IS 5000 INVOLVED

The Board of Aldermen Voted to
 Award That Amount to Robert and
 Alice Walker-The Heavy Rains
 Damaged Their Goods In The Kelly
 Block They Asked for Damages and
 Got Them So Everybody Supposed
 :. The Veto May Stop It.
 It was stated to-day on good authori- Sty that Mayor Kilduff has vetoed the Action of the board of aldermen ill awarding Robert and Alice Walker sonqething in the neighborhood of 5000 for Nthe flooding of their cellar at the corner of Riverside street and Bank streetN some time ago. The Walkers keep a\ drug store ill the Kelly block and represented that most of the stock in the cellar was destroyed by sur face wateE. They claimed $1,O00 dam- ages. TheN law committee, acting on the advice of City Attorney Ihllogg, so MT Goss informed the aldefmep the night their report was adopted, recom- mended that they be paid the sum of $S95 in lieu of AIl damages, the under standing being that the city could col lect that amount Afrom the Hellmann Brewing companyA the firm being charged with diverting the stream at the south side of it's, plant out of it's natural course and knto the city's sewerage system thus causing the same to overflow during he3vy rains and sending more water down Bank street than wol1Id como that wa 1y if thn hrooL had been allowed to follow the old course. So far no one seems to know what reason the mayor wilk give for vetoing the report. but the public will be made aware of his views on the question at the next meeting of the aldermen. Whether the board will try to pass it over the veto is also a mat ter of conjecture. Anyway, it is pfob- able that it will make little stirA at the next session of the city solons.

Refgn of the Toothpic1x.

Just why the average excursion party should top off at 5O-cent ma chine-made dinner with dessert of toothpicks is another of those mys- teries which belong to the genius of the future to explain. But watch the crowd wind its way out of the din ing-room, where it has gone all the way from soup to the foot note with out skipping single dish, and see how it grasps the toothpicks. It seems to be sign that each one has eaten, proof that the meal has been paid for, and that the toothpick is final triumph of advanced civ ilization and high society. - What to

MANY SOLDIERS ILL.

Atlanta, Ga, Sept 1.-Two hundred and twenty-six men of the Twenty seventh infantry stationed at Fort Me Pherson, are i'll in the post hosiptal to-day. The doctors attribute the ill- ness to ptomaine poisoning, which is believed to have been in the food serv- ed on Tuesday evening The cooks say that it came from the ice as no canned goods have been used in six months and cooking in copper vessels has not been done since last March. Colonel w. J. French of the Eleventh infantry the post commander. is making an ip- yestigation.

CANTERBURY. ARCHBISHOP
Failed to Get His Letter Before
 the Ecumenical Council.


 Tn It He Expressed the Hope That the
 Methodists Would Unite With tine
 Episcopalians Some Day-Dr Leon
 ard, New Yorker, Thanked God
 For England's Work in South Afri-
 ca.
 London, Sept 5.-The Ecumenical Methodist conference to-day unani- mously declined to hear the secretary read the message of the archbishop of Canter bury in which he expressed ! hope that some day the MethodistS would be united with the Episcopal ians, and on similar import the mes sage of the bishop of London, on the ground that they had been addressed to the editor of religious newspaper and not to the conference.
 The Rev I. Bowman Stephenson of England, in moving that the messages should not be received, said that the conference would not have had cause to complain had the prelates been ap- preached in a proper manner.
 Discussing the present position of Methodism, the Rev T. F. Buckles of King Williams Town, Cape Colony, went into the relations between the South African natives and the Eu- repeans. He said he believed the war would purify the administration of the natives.
 Bishop Hartzell, missionary bishop of the Methodist Episcopal church in Africa, said the present time was the of another empire of Anglo Saxon civilization. The war was merely an incident
 Dr Leonard of New York thanked God for what Great Britain was doing in South Africa and expressed the hope that the war would soon end with the Union Jack fioating.

Hewara. ,or .n.n.-s soldiers.

Rewards are seldom given for prow- ess on the battlefield in China, but when they are the most acceptable of them all, from the private soldiers point of view, is sack of rice, valued at three taels (about Is shillings). The commanding officer of each regi- ment has power to give as many sacks as are deserved, and at the con clusion of every campaign he sends in formidable t-L to the govern ment for rice. No inquiries are made, nor are the names of the recipients asked for, so in nine cases out of ten the officer sells the grain and puts the money into his own pocket, while the deserving soldier, to whom the rice would have meant great deal, has to go without.-N.

 Eye on the Wreck and His Shoulder
 To The Wheel and Had It Right
 Side Up In Short Order.
 Manager Lawson who furnished electric light for the baseball game on the grounds last night came near being put out of the business tempor- arily to-day. While loading his plant at the depot this morning the plank which he carries about with him for loading and unloading broke and inn mediately the wagon turned a somer- sault and came near demolishing the fence at Randolph & Gloves factory. It lay there in a heap and in all prob ability would be there still if Water bury did not happen to be blessed with such man as R. N. Blakeslee, who. as Phelan, the tea merchant, says in his advertisement in the papers, can move anything from the weight of 8 feather to ten ton safe.' MT Blakes- lee demonstrated this afternoon, as he has often done before. that he can not only move feather or a ten ton safe, but that he can swing an electric lighting plant from one place to an- other with as little trouble as if it 4I.s 4I.s. l~z matches or tooth picks. If Blakeslee can move the hearts of men as easily as he can other things then there is no further need of guessing who'll be our next mayor.

COLUMBIA 10 DEFEND CUP.
Challenge Committee Has So Decided After Conference.

A Two Hours Session Was Held This
 Morning, When All the Points Were
 Carefully Considered-Sir Thomas
 Lipton, When Informed. Said He
 Wanted the Best Yacht Put Against
 Him.
 Newport, Sept 5.-The yacht Colum- bia, champion of 1899, has been chosen to race against Shamrock H., in tie fense of the America-s cup. The de cision was reached at noon to-day after a conference of two hours be- tween the members of the challenge committee, on board the schooner yacht Corona, the flagship of the New York Yacht club. All the members of the committee were present. The de- cision was reached after a long dis cUssion on the performances of the Go lumbia and the Constitution in their trial heats. It was the general belief that the Columbia had shown the best points in those heats and therefore the decision was rendered.
 New York, Sept 5.-When informed that the Columbia had been officially selected to race his yacht, Sir Thomas Lipton said: ''I thank you for the in formation. All have to say is that shall abide by the decision of the com mittee. I am sure they have selected the best boat, and the best boat is the one I want to sail against" Shortly after noon Sir Thomas announced that the Shamrock would not go out to-day on account of the light winds. She will be out tomorrow, though, ready for another trial.
