long Time he went TO San Francisco, where
he was neated by specialist, but without
benrhi, and was sent 10 Hot Springs IN that
State, hoping that the baths would effect
cure; hut he got 20 better aud returned 10 the
hospital there and submitted TO an operation.
The operation WAS IN measure successful,
but owing TO severe vomiting spell soon
after recovering from the effects Of the
anaes'heiic, the wound was ruptured and
the cure was not complete

A GOLD HEADED CANE.
Presented to Rev w. J. Slocum by A.
 O. H. Members.

O. Ii. MemDefS.
 Congress hall was crowded last night, the occasion being the installa- ton of the officers of the different di- visions of the A. o. H. It was the largest meeting of the order held in Waterbury in many years. A feature of the session was the presentation Of gold-headed cane, suitably inscribed, to Father Slocum as g. mark of es- teem from the Hibernians in Water bury Professor M. o. Donovan made the presentation speech, to which the recipient suitably responded. The cane is very handsome one and Father Slocum appeared very proud to own it and promised to keep it among his cherished possessions as long as he lives.
 The installation ceremony was per- formed by County President Timothy Luddy of this city, who performed the work in a most satisfactory manner. Father Slocum gave a half-hour talk, in the course of which he expressed the hope that the fair which the Hi bernians of Waterbury are about to open for the purpose of raising funds to erect monument in, the Hibernian DlOU .dI cL JOSCpl . CCluClCIy WILL bO well patronized and that enough will be raised to make the memorial worthy of the purpose in view. He hoped to see the order prosper and it's members show by word and deed that the diff ferent divisions are composed of God fearing men, ready and willing at all times and on all occasions to stand for law and order and to uphold legally constituted authority in church and state. He paid a glowing tribute to the memory of the late James Meagher, whose conduct he conalGered worthy of emulation whether as Hibernian or private citizen and wanted to see ev- cry member of the order live up to the standard of good citizenship set by MT Meagher and others of his class.
 Addresses were also made by pr Martin, Father McGuane and the pres idents of the several divisions, Messrs Talbot, Calvin. McMahon,> Whitney, Sheehan and Birney. There were songs and recitations by members of the Ladies' auxiliary, A. o. H., and others.

The Freight Handlers union met last night and passed resolutions in favor of the striking trolleymen.

 Everything was quiet on the South Main street line during the noon hour to-day. Crowds of men lined the side. walk from the Benedict & Burnham concern down to Washington street, but there was no disturbance. A num- Der of policemen were doing duty in that vicinity.
 City Clerk Ryan and K. O. Peabody called upon Colonel Burpee last even ing. not to present the case of the strikers, as has been reported, but merely as friends to both sides of the controversy, and if possible to find some way out of the difficulty. MT Peabody thinks he has been misrepre- sented by the report that he went as a committee from the strikers He is a member of the business mems commit tee and it was coincident thought with him and MT Ryan to call upon Colonel Burpee.
 Commissioners Beach of the board of public safety was asked this noon if the board had taken measures to com
