A Really Stingy Man.


A Philadelphian said Of Miss Anna
T. Jeanes, who has given 81 1000, 900

thropist. To good cause she is gen.

freely, she has no sympathy with
niggards. / once heard her tell a
story about a niggardly rich man Of
her childhood:
This man visited a school and
made an address. At the end he
called a littl. boy up to him and
said:
my lad, have you a purse ?"
mo sir.
"I'm sorry" said the rich man.
"If you had had purse | should
have given you a dime to put into it. >
This man was scheduled to speak
again at the school the next month,
and when he came the boys were pre-
pared for him. An empty purse lay
hidden in every little pair Of trousers.
And sure enough, at the end Of
his speech, the man called another
boy and said:
"Hsve you purse, SOM"
"Yes, SIR was the eager answer.
"I'm glad Of it, said the other.

PAINFUL ACCIDENT
MRS. IT. H. HULL SERIOUSLY
 BURNED.

oil Lamp Exploded and Burning Fluid
 Descended Upon Her Head and Body
 --Reported Late Last Night to be in
 a PrecariOus Condition.
 A most painful burning accident, oc- cured to Mrs. w. H. Hull, wife of the well-known druggist, at their home, 90 Dwight street, Thursday night, and Mrs. Hull lies in a very precarious condition. She has only been conscious at intervals since the accident happen ed. From what can be- gathered re- garding the occurrence 1t seems that Mrs. Hull was in the act of turning down the wick of lamp, which stood upon a bracket some distance above her head and without any warning the lamp suddenly exploded. A shower of flames poured down upon her and burned her hair, face and chest, and other parts of the bcdy in a frightful manner. The only occupant of the house at the time was her sister, who was in another room. The screams of Mrs. Hull brought the sister to her aid, and she did her best to queneh the flames, and telephoned to Mir Hull, who was in his store at the corner of Chapel and State streets. Medical aid was also promptly secured and every thing possible was done to alleviate her sufferings. Late last night Mrs. Hull was reported as being in a very serious condition, but hopes were yet entertained for her recovery.

ALAsKA's BIG BEARS.
The Largest Flesh Eating Animals in
 the World.


 Very few persons really know that the largest flesh eating animals in the world are found in America. People generally believe that the African lion is the king of beasts. but he is not nearly as large or as powerful an anil nal as Ire large brown bear of sub arctic America.
 The bears are not as feroclous or cumulative as the lions, nor are they nearly as vicious as they are given credit for being; but the largest of them are much larger and more poWer- full than any. of the lions. It is safe to say that the largest of the brown bears of the North would weigh three times as much as the largest speci- men of lion, and is beyond all question greatly superior in strength.
 If brought together in combat, the bear would at first appear very clumsy, says Scribners's Magazine It would not be capable of the quick rush or the catlike spring of the lion.
 It would not attack, but would re- main entirely on the defensive, meet ing it's adversary with blows of such rapidity and terrific force as at once to illustrate it's superiority not only in tsrength but in action. do not believe that there is an animal in the world that can act more quickly or effective ly or can aim it's blows with great certainty than the bear.
 The large brown bears of the Alaska peninsula, south of Boring Sea, are 1 among the largest bears of the world, and it is evident that ti1ere is no part of the world outside of America in which such large flesh eating animals are found, The bears are flesh eaters or carnivorous, yet there are none of them that depend upon flesh for food and with most of them flesh comprises but a very small percentage of theii food.

POLL BUYS FOR sl8o,ooo.
The Bijou Theater of St. Marys
 Church.


 Sylvester 2. Poli, the theatrical man. ager, has purchased the St. Mary $ church property in Church street, where is now located the Bijou theater. The price paid for the property, which has a frontage of ninety-one feet in Chruch street, and is 1S6 feet deep, is believed to be about $13O,OOO This pur- chase by the theater owner makes him one of the heaviest individual taxpay- CTS in the city. MT. Poli confirmed the report of his purchase. He stated that he regarded this building as a good investment, as it is centrally located, and has a large area of land in the rear, which made development of the building possible. He also has some sentiment in making the purchase. It will be remembered that 1t was in this building that MT. Poli achieved much of his success as a manager for fifteen years of a vaudeville theater located where the Bijou is now.

GREAT SUBSCRIPTION TAILORING
Event of The Hirsh Stores Company
 Opens This Morning.


 An event that will be hailed with gladness by many is that of The Hirsh Stores company in this mornings Cour- fer. The first subscription opens this morning and closes on Monday, March Il at p. m. It seems to be altogether unnecessary to more than announce this important event. When in 1900 the Hirsh brothers introuced their subscrip- tion tailoring in this city 1t at once leaped into the most pronounced popu- larity and every succeeding season has only emphasized its success. Thou sands of our people. including men in every walk in life, have gladly availed themselves of these splendid opportu- mites. The one which opens this morn- ing is no exception. Indeed. it might be said of it that in some respects it is bound to eclipse all others. Go and look in at the show windows. The fab rics will demonstrate the quality of goods used at this time. You'll dis cover that there is nothing like it Ut is unique in the history of New Haven-- it is ''unrivaled and alone" For partic- ulars read the Hirsh stores advertise ment on another page
