\ KNOWING PRISONER
0flcer Walsh Compllmented By Ills
 Chief For Making the Anest.

The police feel that in Maik Sains- Ofhcer Walsh, and whose case will be aired in the police court to-mor- Tow, they have got hold of the slick est chap that has turned up here in years. He had couple of bottles Of whiskey in his possession when the officer collared him and when he was searched at the police station three skeleton keys were discovered ln his pockets, which would enable him to enter almost any house in the city without breaking window or rapping to be admitted. He is n very clever appearing young fellow, speaks good enough for all practie al purposes and is the most frank pris- oner the officials ever had to deal With. He admitted that the liquor was taken from the store of Maxima- viczlus X Venckunas, 900 Bank street. This will make it an easy matter to bind him over to the su- perior court. but the police are not quite satisfied with connecting him with the stolen whiskey and are hunt ing around to see if evidence can be secured to enable them to convict him of other things of that sort, but So far they have not been very sue cessful. His boarding house at 9 Branch street was search to-day, but nothing which is of any value was unearthed. He worked for the Chase Rolling Mili Co and although the au- thorities are suspicious of him. mo- body knows aught against him ex- cept the case with which he is now charged. masmuch as he appears sharper than the ordinary run of such prisoners it is likely that the police will make an effort to communicate with the authorities in the old country and see if he has q criminal record over there. In any case they are very much pleased to have him for q guest at the police station and Su- perintendent Beach says Officer Walsh deserves great credit for get ting hold of him.

Warships at League Island Are
 Bearded Nightly by Mosquitoes.

Philadelphia, Aug 13.-A deep fo'- c's'le growl is going up from the berth decks of the warships stationed at League Island. Uncle Sam. while liberal enough with nickel steel. has not properly armored the cruisers and battleships against the mosqui- toes from the swamps of The Neck. 1" Myriads of the pests form boarding parties and attack the warships ev- cry evening as soon as the sun goes down.
 Grizzled old officers. some of whom have proved that they are not afraid of fort with a hundred cannon spit ting fire. are ready to retreat in the face of them, while below decks the ''men behind the gun" are prepared to run up the white flag.
 On the cruiser Brooklyn a vain ef- fort has been made to repei the boarders by mosquito nettings rigged over the hatches and ports Aft on the upper deck Is a large cage of net ting for the officers. But the Schuyl- kill mosquito. small and sassy" gets through the guard by thousands and finds abundant opportunity to bring his rapid-fire stfnger into action.
 But bad as is the situation Inside the nettings. it is worse outside. where the enemy gathers In strength Billy, the Brookiyn's mascot. a goat of wonderful intelligence. has orisi- mated anew game.

JOAQUIN MILLER AT SARATOGA
Writes in Bed and Wears Boots Out.
 side His Trousers.

Saratoga, Aug 13.-Joaquin Mill Ter, the poet of the Sierras. joined his family at their cottage here three days ago.
 A friend who asked the poet to go to the races Saturday received this reply: Piano, piano." meaning, "Softly,l softly" a, 2''- 4
 Most of the men here wear shining patent-leather shoes. The poet wears boots, some dark brown, some black, but all reaching to the knee. During the day he tucks his trousers into the boots; during the evening he wears his trousers outside of his boots.
 The poets wears gauntlets instead of gloves. They are of chamois, fringed and slashed, and reach to the elbows.
 Joaquin Miller, who writes in bed, did so long before Mark Twain. He begins to weave romance and write poetry after breakfast in bed at 8 a. m. and does not dress until noon, when. dinner is served with his fam fly. During the afternoon he goes driving. Supper time is and the great poet retires at 10. He sees mucn of his beautiful little daughter. Juanita. throughout the day. from the time she carries him a dainty breakfast and fresh flowers until her sweet Scotch ballads just before bed- time.

WEATHER JUST RIGHT.
First Trial Race for Competitors in
 the German Race.

Marblehead. Mass, Aug 13.-Dawn to-day brought to the seventeen little yachts. eager aspirants to be defen- ders of the Roosevelt cup, the finest kind of weather for the first of the trial races for the selection of three American boats to sail against the German challengers.
 The air was cool and crisp, while the high barometer yesterday brought a breeze from the north that was still blowing fresh at o'clock this morn- Ing.
 For the first time in many weeks the fog had completely disappeared. Mingled among the tall schooners. the stately steam yachts the racers of other days and several old coasters, lay the latest creations in the small boat line.
 Each had a stubby little bowsprit, twenty foot mast and a cockpit barely sufficient to hold the three men to which each boat is limited.
 Several of the yachts had been liberally coated with black lead to decrease what little friction might have remained on the paint or nat ural wood of their hulls. Others were vanished and rubbed down until one could see one's fact in their glassy sides. While they all resembied each other. close inspection by the trained eye disclosed many different ideas in design. for eight of the highest paid and most accomplished creators in this country are responsible for their lines.
 They are all of the jib and main sail rig. Iva of them started the season as eatboats. but they have re- gently been changed to the prevail ing type. All ars equipped with light spinnakers. but the rules regarding the carrying of these sails restrict their use except when the boat is dead before the wind. and the booms are snug to the foot Of the mast. Nearly all the crevs were early sstir this morning. although most of the boats received their finishing yesterday.
 sffrl the iishtness of their rig made almost imperative that a careful Inspection should be made of each rope and cord before starting ont for the days .yoFk

WAS DEDICATED YESTERDAY
St Agnes Chapel at Woodn0atil Which
 Waterbury People Are Interested.

The picturesque little gray shin gled church of St Agnes at Woodmont was dedicated yesterday by the Rt Rev Bishop Miechael Tierney of the Catholic diocese of Hartford. Wealth. CT conditions were ideal and the lit- tie chapel was crowded to the doors with worshippers who saw in the dedication the continuation of two years of hard work and sacrifice. The dedication began at 10 o'clock when the cornerstone was formerly sealed by the bishop. In 1t was placed 8 copy of the paroch!al paper, local paper and coins of the year. The ser- vice was exceedingly simple, follow ing the wishes of the majority of the congregation. It began with the sol- emn dedicatory professional about the church and followed by the chanting, in procession, of the litany of the saints. A low mass was cele- brated by Father McClean of Milford, who has charge of the church. The sermon was by the Rev Edward Downes of Milford and his text was, My eyes also Shall be opened and my ears attentive to the prayers of him who prays in this place"
 bishop addressed the congregation, congratulating them on the sacrifices they had made to secure place of worship for the few weeks of the summer vacation. He said that he hoped the example of the Woodmont summer colony would be followed by other summer settlements along both the east and west shores of the sound where churches are needed. He said they would be blessed for their initia- tive as well as for their piety in es- tablishing the church.
 Among the priests present were the Rev James J. Smith of Norwich and the Rev Fathers McClean, Downes, Nay, Sullivan and Flynn of Milford, the Rev Father Flannery of Hartford, the Rev Father McGivney of Westville and Father Mitchell of Ridgefield.
 Francis Carroll of Waterbury acted as crozier and altar boy of the mass. |. The church was designed by Arch itect J. A. Jackson, and is an exceed ingly pretty building. The interior Is of white pine and the altar is white marble. The paintings comprising the Stations of the Cross are framed in gray Flemis oak. The altar and shrines were decorated yesterday with many beautiful flowers.
