JAMES M'EvoY's LOSS.
House Burned Yesterday With All It's
 Contents, Including Money.

The store and residence of James McEvoy Of Sylvan avenue were total- ly destroyedby fire yesterday afternoon, the building being reduced to ashes in presence of a large crowd of people who had focked around but could do nothing to stay the ravages of the flames. This is the third house wiped out in that neighborhood this season, the Dillane's losing their house ill a similar manner snort time ago.
 The fire was discovered about 5 o'clock and a messenger was dispatch ed to the nearest box, 5S2, corner of Baldwin and Rye streets, about half mile distant. Mrs McEvoy was busy with her household duties and knew nothing of the trouble until somebody called her attention to 1t. The fire started in the chimney near the roof. No 2's truck responded, but nothing could be done to save the building, but the men got out some of the furniture. Before the firemen arrived Martin Keefe, the grocer and Officer John Cava1laugh ventured in and rescued four or five handsome rabbit dogs. Among those who rushed to the scene were Officers Hickey and Halpin, and the officers found something to do keeping the army of youngsters out of harms way.
 The building was worth between $2, 800 to $3,OOO
 Mir McEvoy works at Scovill's shop and arrived home just in time 10 see the remnants of the building fall into the cellar with crash. He has eight small children and when the excited little ones and their mother. gathered about him, he first looked at the mass of ruins, then at his homeless family and wept. The little he had saved from the earnings of years of hard labor had gone up in smoke and he was left without a dollar or q dollars worth in the world. He had $l4O in the house, but the fire fiend gos away with this the same as it did with every thing else. 1t was sad sight.
 At the present time the board of public works Is extending .he water main in that street close up to the old city line and if the safety board would now order fire alarm box there tbe few houses that are left might stand some show of being saved in case an- other fire should break out, something which Is likely to happen any time.

HARTFORD MAN KILLED
Edward H. Dorsey Lost His Life at
 Southford Yesterday.


 Hartford, Aug 1.-Edward H. Dorsey of No 21 Talcott street was killed by the cars at Southford, eight miles be- yond Waterbury, at 4:15 o'clock yester- day afternoon. He went to work Tues day as a fireman on freight train or the Highland division. The train ran from this city to Fishkill and he was on his second return trip yesterday. The train left Fishkill at 9 a. m. ana was due here at p. m.
 At Southford the train broke in two and when the brakes were put on the sudden jar threw Dorsey from his posi- ton on the tender and he fell under the cars. The cars passed over his body and he was dead when picked up.
 The first news of the accident to reach this city was "a telephone mes- sage to the police station, the railroad men asking that Dorsey's brother, Su- pernumerary Policeman J. l.. Dorsey, be notified. MT Dorsey was 21 years old. For several years he was em- ployed at the office of the Hartford Life Insurance Go. He was offered 1n- ducements to remain with the com pany, but he was anxious to have out door work. He was powerful young man of good size and skilled in ath- letics. He played on the base ball team of the insurance company and took much interest in the gymnasiums of the Y, M. 0. A. and the Hartford Turnerbund.

STUDENTS AND A BULL.
Said to Be from Yale, but Names Not

Said to Be from Yale, but Names Not
 in Catalogue.
 The New York Times of yesterday contains the following special dispatch under the date of July 30, from Pitts burg, Pa:
 One of three Yale students, who are camping on Neville island, hung red sweater on tent to dry today A bull in an adjoining pasture spied the sweater and charged, Jumping the fence One of the campers, George Ap- plegarth, who was swinging in a ham, mock ran for tree, as did his com panions, Everett Relbin of Montreal and Frederick Stafford of Hartford, Conn. From the tree they watched the bull den,olish their summer home. Cha lie, w. Stilwell, the owner of the bull, said he would pay the damage and invited the young men to stay with him during their vacation.
 The names of none of the three "Yale students" who figure in the hair raising tale appears in the current cat alogue of Yale university, says the Hartford Courant. It possibly pre- sents the .anamolous case of cock and-bull story all right, so far as the bull is concerned. Further, would bna fide Yale students have been in possession of red sweater? This rather suggests Harvard.

Real Estate and Rents
O'NEILL'S BULLETIN.

suppose you occasionally take out your handbook and look at it. 1t shows you have $500 to the good, and at the end of the year it increases $20, thus you have $52O. Now suppose you take that $500 and buy a tenement house I have on West Farm street, which you can get for $500 down, the balance to remain on mortgage. Which would you rather have, that $2O in the bank on top of your $500, or would you rather have house and rent free for year instead? The question is, $20 profit with your money in the bank, or $180 with your money in a house. Fifteen dollars month for twelve months equals $1S0. $2O or $1SO. It is up to you to choose. These figures are plain and cannot be disputed.
