BAD FORM OF TETIER.

For three years 1 had letter on my hands,
which caused them to swell to twice their
natural size. Part of the time the disease
was in the form of running sores, very pain
full, and causing ME much discomfort. -Four
doctors said the letter had progressed too
far to be cured, and they could do nothing
for me. Itook only three bottles of S. s. s.
and was completely cured. This was fifteen
years ago, and have never since seen any
sign of my old trouble.

THE BIG SHOW.
Trick Bicycling Great Feature of the

 Trick Bicycling Great Feature of the
 Ringing Circus.
 The possibilities of trick bicycle rid ing have been pushed to the uttermost limit by the accomplishments of the Kaufman family of seven, both featur- ed in the big programme of the. Ring ling Brothers curcus this season. These performers have made wheel riding an art. They have conceived movements, the carrying out of which calls, for the highst daring and skill, as well as the keenest susceptibility to artistic grace and picture effect. They go through all the dainty figures of old fashioned dances, as well as those of the present day vogue, with eccentrlcities thrown in to make the changes morethrilling and amusing. They work singly, in groups and altogether, spinning around on the rear wheel, balancing upright on the handle bar, turning summersaults across wide table, with the wheel high in the. air, and landing safely in the saddle, the entire family forming athletic poses on one wheel, and in a lot of other amazing ways are. the laws of gravitation and physical limitations set at naught. The performance has been praised and honored in European capitals beyond any athletic feature seen in recent years. The big circus will visit this city Wednesday, June '.

STUDENT FIGHTING SUIT.

The most hotly contested case that has occurred before a justice of the peace iii New Haven in twenty y-fiye years is being fought out before Jus tioe Jason P. Thomson for the last few days \ y5itssa
 The case in question is the suit of Morris Kapsinow, an Elm street tailor, against ". $. Weiss, Of 250 York street, for s15, one of the six Yale academic students who are being sued for tailor bills by Kapsinow,@
 On Monday at Il o'clock the case was called for trial and Attorney Driscoli entered a defense for Weiss that the said goods were bought of one William Wallack, a partner of Kapsinow, and paid for to hIm, and therefore the de- fendant was not liable. Attorney Ma her entered 8 denial to the effect that these statements were not correct, and for two days the attorneys have been fighting the cose. Although more time has been spent already on the case than any justice case in many years, the plaintiff has but just rested and the defendant is yet to be heard. The matter has gone over until to-day.

The DemrrnGe Law.

Some weeks ago President c. s. Mel
 len of the New York, New Haven and
 Hartford railroad, in a hearing before ! the state legislature 's committee on
 railroads, presented the reasons why, in
 his opinion, certain privileges not now enjoyed should be given the railroad company which he represents. MT. Nell len, in fact, took the ground that some
 of the things for which the railroad
 asks so intimately concerned the gen.
 eral business of the state, that in. the
 sense that railroad and pubic were in
 reality partners the railroad company
 was justified in asking these grants as right. The fact that the railroad pres ident was to, in this public manner, de- fine the attitude of the company. at the same time courting any questions that any member of the legislature or
 any other individual should deem it
 proper to put to him, was so generally
 known and so far in advance of the hearing, that there was presumably am ple opportunity for every interested
 person to be present. It was in sense
 to be the general public day iii court. In his address, surprisingly frank and admirably direct and complete, Presi- dent Mellen pointed out what from the railroad point of view appeared to be unjust and inconsistent in the opera tion of various statutes and acts, con-
 fining himself principally to those which bore directly or indirectly on the
 railroad situation along. certain speei-
 EnI li,,a nf th.oa r,rty1n 1nir,oJ m r. ters to which he devoted his attention was the law which regulates the charge to be paid by corlsignees for detention of freight cars, known as the demur- rage law. > E.
 Last week in another hearing held for that special purpose, MT. Mellen explained in straightforward, concise manner, how, not the railroad company alone, but its patrons principally, were compelled to suffer heavily in their pockets because of this law. As it ap- peared from the newspaper reports of the hearing, the principal if not the only objection to modification of the law were advanced from few repre- sentatives from the rural districts a few lumber and coal dealers. As against these objections, however, there Were petitions and personal appeals by representatives of practically the com- bined manufacturing interests of the state, A majority of those who heard the statements of bot hsides are sat isfied that MT. Melen made true pres entation of the case. So believing, the railroad committee has reported that in it's judgment the law should be

COLLISION AT SEA. ;.
Between Eagle Wing and Steamer Lu

Between Eagle Wing and Steamer Lu-
 cia-Tragedy Narrowly Averted.
 The big four-masted Fall River schooner Eagle Wing was in collision with the steamer Lucia Monday, as an- nounced by New York press dispatch last evening. The collision occurred about sixty miles southeast of Sandy Hook hghtship. Neither vessel sus- tained fatal damage. A dense fog pre- vailed at the time. Both craft. were damaged The schooner as she sailed away signalled no one was hurt. The Eagle Wing is bound from Boston to coal port.
 The Eagle Wing is the vessel which was in collision with the R. c. Har- graves, of this city, off the Jersey coast on the night of February 19, 1903. The Hargraves, it will be remembered, was total loss as a result of the col- lision, and in the suit brought by At torney James D. Dewell, jr., in behalf of the Hargraves' owners, the court found that the Eagle Wing was abso- lutely at fault, and awarded damages in whatever amount the plaintiff could prove. MT. Deweilt said last evening that his damages in the suit would amount to $24,000, and that the time for an appeal from this decision of the court expires next Saturday.

 rant Engagement of Miss Hills for Remainder of Year-AnnuaI Meeting Postponed. The four months for which Miss Hills, was engaged to serve as visiting nurse are now completed, and as they drew to an end she was most anxiously ques- tioned by those whom she was serving as to whether she was to leave them. She was engaged tentatively until it should be proved whether there was4a real need for such work in New Ha- ven and whether New Haven would support it. In the minds of the board of managers these questions have been answered beyond a doubt. Miss Hills time has been more than full and her calls constantly increae. There will soon be full work for two nurses. Only about one-half of the needed endow-s ment has as yet been given, but the responses in the shape of annual sub- scriptions have been sufficiently gener- ous to warrant the engagement of Miss
 Hills for the remainder of the year.
 The skill and wisdom and devotion with which she has carried on her work show that she is fitted for it here, as she proved herself to be in Middletown. Those who have given money to this
 cause may feel that, through her, they are lessening in some degree the suf-
 fering and heavy burden which illness, brings to the homes of the poor. The place which she has already made for
 herself is shown by the dread which some of her patients felt at the thought of her leaving them. The managers are i very glad that they are able to con- l tinue her services, and they hope to
 make some provision by which the work can go on while she takes her months Vacation-a vacation well earned. b& s,32.l ts@E f sssa ss .z.. | A year has passed since the incorpor-
 atlon of the Visiting Nurse association,
 but in view of the fact that the first
 eight months were given up to collect ing money. and that there have been
