HOUSE HUNTING.

Hall, the Real Estate Man, Says, Buy
 c. D. Hall, the real estate man in the Malley building, is renting lots of houses. When he takes the rental of a house in his hands he has every de- tail of it in his mind and his eye, a full description of it and it's surround ings on the tip Of his tongue. It is a pleasure to hear him talk.
 But to-day in his large announce ment he says: Buyi He gives brief details of houses in all parts of the city, houses taking in all ranges of prices, houses to meet all require 'ments of purse and needs.
 It is question if ever in the city's history his advice came with more per- tinency. The task of house hunting to-day is a task that only those that are earnestly seeking have any con- ception Of.
 The city is growing rapidly, trolley lines stretching out, better service be- ing given. All these tend to give more weight to his advice. Property in de
 sirable localities must enhance Tht saving in rent the feeling of security the incentive to economy, all urge home ownership.

Southington, Sept. 27.-The local phy- sicians are trying to account for the epidemic of la grippe and typhoid fever in town. Yesterday there were forty hands out of the P. s. & w. company with the grippe and the other factories in town are suffering likewise. The doctors also report a prevalence of ty- phoid fever and there are now about ten cases in town. For long time mast the health officer has advocated a sewer and yet no attempt at getting one is ever made. The sanitary con- ditions in Southington, especially in the neighborhood of Liberty street and Safety avenue, are in deploraole con- dition and reflects upon the town to a considerable degree. The residents near the Quinnipiac are continually de- manding a sewerage system, as the little sewerage we have runs into that river. and a most repulsive odor is sues from it at times. There is one small sewer pipe on Center street and this was originally placed there to carry off the surface water, but of late all kinds of connections have been made to it and now its capacity is overtaxed, as can be seen in any rain storm when the catch basins refused to take the water. There has been an enormous death rate in town the last six months and most people believe it is on account of poor sanitary eondi- tions.

There is a town in Missouri where English is considered a foreign lan- guage and where German is taught in every grade of public schools.

The cause of death was tuberculosis, from which the child suffered greatly on account of hemorrhages. Funeral will probably be held tomorrow and burial will be in St. Thomas ceme- tery.
 The ten months old daughter of Joseph Kovhardt died yesterday after noon from cholera infantum. Burial was in St Thomas cemetery this morning.
 The petition which is being circu- lated by the business men is receiving wholesale signatures. In less than three hours there were 200 signers at tached to it. The people want a through line to Plainville and if it is not given for the winter there will be very little traffic. The present man ager of the road cannot make correct time now, and when there Is now there will be no end of trouble. It is earnestly hoped that the petition will be honored by the company as the traffic has been greatly lessened.

CONTEST WAS VERY CLOSE

Columbus, O., Sept. 2T.--- Over a slow track Wilkes Heart made the best time of the grand circuit racing to-day when he took the second heat of the Buckeye s5,00O stake from Highball, the favorite. Highball won three other heats, however, and the race. He went into the competition with knee so bad that Geers thought seriously of refusing to start him at all
 The judges took Snap" Mccarthy from behind Jack Leyburn for fourth heat, but Valentine, the substituted driver could finish no better than a good second. Valentine was also put up behind Tax Title in the first divi- sion of the 2:15 pace, which was won by Major Mallow, the favorite, after both Davie K. and McGaig Simmons got heats. The second division of this pace was easy for Edna ", the choice.
 Lillian R, won the one heat of the 2:07 trot in a jog, but Hedge Wood Boy, strong favorite for the 2:07 pace, dropped the heat decided to Leland Onward. The former horse made a bad break just past the first turn. He finally recovered and finished a close second. The meeting ends Saturday.

RESOLUTIONS.

At meeting of the Directors of the Security Insurance company of New Haven held at the officeof the company September 27, 1907, the following res olution was adopted:
 MT. William R, Tyler died September 25, 1907 He became Director of the Security Insurance company October 8, 1885, and served as such until his death.
 Through an intimate acquaintance with some of those engaged fin the man. agement of the company, he quickly be- came closely identified, and familiar, with it's affairs, and always held foremost position in it's counsels.
 During the term of his service as a Director( nearly twenty-two years) he was loyal to the company's interests and one of the leaders in It's growth from the small company at the time of his first association with 1t, to that of to-day.
 He was an active member of the finance committee from the time of It's institution and served faithfully as an auditor for many years
 Naturally conservative, his counsel was on the side of caution, always hav- Ing in pind the welfare of the smaller as well as the larger shareholders. Modest and unassumtng, kind hearted and of generous impulses he endeared himself to his associates on the board, and in his death the company loses a valuable officer and the Directors a friend whose memory will be held in the highest esteem and affection. The secretary is directed to transmit to MT. Tylers family this expression of sympathy in their bereavement and to enter this minute on the records of the company.
