A Confederate Soldier Who Attended
 New Britain High School.
 Tn 18GO, just before the outbreak of the civil war, there were about ten southern students at the high school in New Britain, and they all packed up and left for home. One of these, John S. Bird, of Charleston, s. C., was re- gently a guest of President Meigs H. Whaples, of the Connecticut Trust and Safe Deposit company. and while north he also visited old friends in New Brit ain.
 When Mr. Bird left the New Britain high school and went home he joined the Palmetto Guards. He was mem Der of one of the batteries that shelled Fort Sumter, and his regiment occupied the fort on it's surrender. MT. Bird be- gan writing to MT. Whaples two or three years ago, renewing the old ac- I quaintance. During the visit of the First regiment, c. N. G., to Charleston 1 in 1881 MT. Bird extended many courte- I sies to the officers and men.
 r Pretty much all of the young men who went back to the south with MT. Bird at the beinning of the war-if not i all of them-entered the Confederate i service. One of them was lieutenant colonel of a Georgia regiment, but was captured by General Hawley's regi- ment, the Seventh c. ", at Poctaligo. Another was colonel of a North, Caro- lima cavalry regiment and was Killed. Another was a captain in South Car olina regiment and was mortally wounded in battle. Mr. Bird served with the Palmetto Guards for three years. The northern friends of his boy hood were all glad to see him again. Hartford Courant. - :"

MOTHER VENETIAN NIGHT.
Gorgeous Scene to Be Reproduced cn
 Greater Scale.

Venetian night. having been unusu- ally deiectable to the public and great success in every way, as a special feat ture will again take place at the White City tomorrow night. The wealth of coloring in the electric and decorative effects seems to have fascinated the people of New Haven, and the fine har- mony of the voices of the Dresden La dies and the Bachelor Club quartettes seems to complete the romantic atmos- phere of these Venetian nights that ap- peals so strongly to the old and young of Connecticut.
 It was Manager Cundells intention to reproduce the pretty scene again on Saturday and Sunday nights only. but, noting the popularity of the event, he decided to give the Venetian night again tomorrow. The two quartettes have new song programme arranged, and among the numbers are some ex- cellent new popular songs. Six of the gondolas will be filled with little girls, children of residents of West Haven,
 while the other two are occupied by the
 singers. The grand illumination over and about the lagoon will be augment ed this time by several hundred addi- tional colored lanterns.
 Immediately following the singing the vaudeville bill will be given. This week Singers dog and monkey come dians are giving side-splitting per- formance entitled "A Chinese Laundry and this is followed by McPhee and Hills marvellous gymnastic act. The third number is Dan Nagers jumping
 dog. This intelligent animal has been
 trained in West Haven, and his jump ing feats excite admiration. And the whole evening tomorrow will be topped
 off with a varied and magnificent dis
 play of fireworks.

 American Line.

''Furst Bismarck of the Hamburg

 The Hamburg American line expects their new twin-screw steamship ''Furst Bismarck" to arrive to-day from Ham, burg, Dover, and BouIogne on her first trip across the Atlantic. She was built at the yards of the Fairfield Ship building company at Glasgow. and was launched there last April. Her dimen- sions are, length over all about 800 feet, width 55 feet, depth 8S feet, and her gross register tonnage is about 5000 tons. Two sets of triple expansion en- zines, developing about 5000 horse power, will give the "F'urst Bismarck" speed of about fifteen knots. She will have accommodations for about 200 first class, 50 second class and 1900 steeFage passengers, and her entire equipment is of the most modern type. The first cabin accommodation is sit uated entirely amidships on the upper decks and the furnishing and arrange ment Of the state rooms and saloons have been designed with view to meet the most exacting demands of the travelling public. The steamer has also been provided with a gymnasium, equipped with the latest and most useful apparatus of the Zander system. After her next trip from Hamburg Mediterranean service, between New York, Gibraltar, Naples and Geona. -
 While it was first intended to employ the "Furst Bismarck" as floating sanitarium, this idea was abandoned by the company, as 1t was considered best to employ this modern and luxu- rious vessel on one of the regular pass enger services of the Hamburg-Ameri- can line. The "Furst Bismarck will be open for inspection on September I and September and cards of adnis- sion may be obtained upon application to the company's office at S7 Broadway, New York. r..

It Will be Visible in Eastern States To-
 Morrow.
 Tomorrow the moon will pass across the face of the sun in such a manner that it's shadow will fall upon a portion of the earth, but the total eclipse will not be visible in the United States and the partial eclipse only in about half of the United States. West of line drawn northwest from Gidianola, Tex, to Fort Belknap, Mont, it will not be visible in this country.
 This shadow is only 120 miles wide and the total eclipse lasts but four minutes. The moons direct shadow strikes the earth near the south end of Lake Winnipeg, in Canada, at sunrise on August 30, and travels easterly to the southern coast of Arabia, where it disappears. The shadow is only two and three-quarters hours travelling this distance.
 The partial eclipse begins in this city about 5:42 a. m. The simplest way to observe the phenomenon is through a piece of smoked glass.

DEwoLF HOPPER.
New Haven Thenter.

QUEEN OF THE HIGHBINDERS.
 Queen of the Highhinders, the new four act play which will shortly be seen at the New Haven theater Thursday, August S1. matine and night, for two performances only, can compare favor ably with any show on the road in originality of construction, characteri- zation, scenery, comedy and heart in terest. It is not one of those dramas gotten together to exploit the merit of one particular actor or actress. Every member of the company gets an opportunity to display his or her talent. The theme of the play is drawn, in a measure, from the actual plottings of a notorious Chinese secret society known as the Highbinders. This band is head ed by white woman named Bettina Otis. who is looked upon as the High binders "queen."
