ways of living and doing things were | little superior to any others. He let his wife conduct the home and dress and edu- cate the girls as she saw fit, but he took charge of the boy. Albert, and for long time, while the sisters were garbed and
 trained after the American fashion, ne
 had his head shaved, wore queue and affected flowing silken garments like those
 of his father.
 Proud of Origin.
 Indeed. he and his sisters have never been ashamed of their origin. and With their accomplishments they need not be. All the girls have the tropical love for music and several are excellent singers. Personally, seven of them are noticeably pretty, with black eyes and hair. One, Mrs. Arthur Johnstone, wife of proml- ninet Honolulu merchant, is a dem-blonde
 and the combination of her blue eyes and
 dark lashes and hair and her pink and
 white complexion make her the accepted
 beauty of the family. Several of the sis
 ters have their fathers tall stature, but
 the rest are of petite figure. Three have
 almond shaped eyes and nearly every one
 of them has the mothers olive complexion
 and soft easy mode of speech
 Wing An Fong was reputed to be worth SIC, 900, 900 in 1890. Two years later hs left Honolulu and went to China. He has never returned, and the reason for his strange act has always been mystery to the outside world
 He spent months getting his enormous business in shape and then sailed away. When months passed and he was still ab-
 sent rumors began to spread and there
 was a story that he had narrowly escaped
 a wife in China Mrs. An Fong and her daughters kept closely to their home for a long time and never spoke of the sub ject to outsiders. After this period, how
 ever the hospitality of the house was resumed and it never waned until the last of the daughters was married.

The Independent Farmer.

From the Troy kan.) Chief.
 Buy farm, young man. No matter how small it may be. buy farm and prepare it so that you land will provide you living. Twenty years from now the man who owns his own farm will be independent and will have at his command the means of a livelihood. ne expansion of manufactures cannot go on forever and there will come a day in this country. as there has Tn others. when the supply will exceed the demand. and the only absolutely sure occupation will be farming. Buy a farm while one may be had!

 uap.anl ,Luzerne Ludington, of Quin~ nipiac avenue, who resigned as chair man of the New Haven civil service board yesterday, has been a member several years and now retires because his business interferes with his holding the position longer
 There is some little discussion about baseball, but very little definite work has been accomplished yet. The friends of the East Side team would like to see all those players organized again, but it is said there is little prospect that Honce can be secured for pitcher, as his services are in demand on other hines. It was stated yesterday that most of the other players would be again avail able for the East Side team. This ag- gregation accomplished such good re- suits last year and won in so many en- counters that it's friends would like to see them playing this season. Prob ably there will be some East Side team in the field by Fast day, with several hines from the west side of the Quin- nipiac.

This is one of the last works of the master, written after the Ninth Sym phony and the great Mass in D, and expressing all the tumult of his career of suffering,On account of the almost insurmountable technical difficulties this quartette is not often performed, It will be rare privil ge to hear one of the grandest compositions of the greatest of all masters.

SEWER PETITIONS.
Sparsely Attended Hearing Before Al.
 dermanic Committee.

Sparsely Attended Hearing Before AL
 dermanlc Committee.
 A public hearing was held last even- ing in the city hall by the aldermanie committee on bridges and sewers. But one of the petitioners appeared in favor of the Pine street sewer There were, however, several in opposition, who claimed that the sewer was impractical ble, on account of the low water, as an obstruction to navigation and as being detrimental to the oyster beds. Prob ably the only way the sewer can be constructed will be to build one in Front street to connect it with.
 There was scant opposition to the petition for a sewer in Winthrop ave- nue and Goffe street. There seems to be a need for sewer in these streets, and it will probably be ordered con- structed.
 No other business was transacted by the committee.

The ball game between Leland & Gray

team, which was played on Reeds field
Wednesday, proved to be very interesting
In the first two innings Vermont acad-
envy put UP a rather poor exhibition,
making nine errors and allowing the SEM
mary boys to stow away seven runs
From then on through the game the
visitors got together and played good
ball making only one error and giving
the seminary boys six goose eggs In the
start the seminary team retired the first
eight men that came to the bat; then
Welch found a single. Heath failed to
get his ball beyond the Admirable, and
was thrown out at first. In the fourth
King drew a free pass, Hodges singled
and King scored. In the sixth Thayer
famed. Day found a single which even
tually ment a run. In the seventh
Seaver and Deyatt drew walking tickets,
which with n general combination OF
errors, were responsible for two runs
With the exception OF the seventh ODER
pitched good steady game and was well
backed by Togo Sparks. who can always
be depended on for good work. no matter
what position he plays. The battery
