 Service.

A regular meeting of the board of park commissioners was held last evening in city hall The matter of the sale of West Rock park land for blasting purposes was not taken up by the board as the matter Is held up in the aldermanic chamber, and it was stated last evening that nothing would be done by the park board without the consent of the aldermen MT. Blake, head of the board when ask ed last evening whether it was ar ranged with MT. Blakeslee that he was to have the land if permission to sell was obtained, stated that the board was under no obligation to the Blakeslees in the matter and that bids from any other person would be ac- cepted. He said that the Blakeslees appeared to be the only firm to do it, but any others that appeared would have their bids attended to-
 A letter was received from William S. Wells stating that there was a sum of $45 remaining as a balance from the sum in the hands of his commit tee for the erection of tablets on the monument on East Rock and the money was rendered to the commis- sion for the care of the tablets.
 The estimates were gone over and approved and will be submitted to the board of finance to-day. The com mission is planning to make a request to the public parks department that an extra civil engineer should be ob- tained by that department for the ser vice of the parks. The park super intendent complains that the force at present is inadequate and that many necessary pieces of work in the parks must be let go because there are more important requirements in the de- partment for the engineers.

GOVERNOR SPEAKS
 AT IRISH FAIR Tells of Fighting Bob's Commentator of Lieut.. Cronan of New
 Haven. MAYOR OPENS BIG
 HIBERNIAN EVENT Blarney Stone Among the Exhibits at the Trans
 formed Music
 Hall.

Like a scene near the Lakes of Kill larney in the middle ages is the picture of the big Hibernian fair which will continue for the next nine days. Cas- ties, fortresses shrines and everything in which the people of Erin were in- terested iii years ago was represented And moving from attraction to attrac- ton were the hundreds of people who attended the fair on the first night
 Mayor John P. Studley, with a few words in which he touched upon the great work which the Irish people have done in this country opened the fair. His address was received with great enthusiasm by the members of the crowd which already spread out over the dance floor rendering almost inn possible for the people to move about from booth to booth Just as the may or had finished speaking Governor Rol- lin S. Woodruff, just back from visit ing the battleship Connecticut at New London, entered the hall escorted by J, r. Devine, chairman of the general committee in charge of the fair The crowd parted as the states chief of fclal came down the floor and as he was led to the platform he was greet cd with cheers.
 Governor Woodruff spoke briefly of his visit to the battleship named after the Nutmeg State and spoke particu- larly of his conversation with Fight ing Bob" Evans, commander of the battleship, in which Admiral Evans said among, the best officers under him was Lieutenant Cronan of New Ha- ven.
 After the governor had ceased speak ing the orchestra played several selec- tions and the attendants at the fair visited the varied attractions. At every fair there should be horse race, and the Hibernian fair is no exception Each time that a heat is pulled off there are, over twenty races entered and the speed with which they fly past the post is remarkable.
 There are refreshment booths, candy booths, soda fountains, tents for for tune tellers, Irish huts and everything else to make the fair success. And best of all is a piece of the real origi- nal Blarney stone, borrowed for the occasion from Captain Courtney of Bridgeport, which occupies place of honor sn a representation of the Blar- ney castle at the front of the hall.
 The local branches of the Hibernians are giving the fair to raise $SOOo with which to entertain the members of the Hibernians from all over the state next August. It is expected that in August there will be over 4000 IIiber- nians in line in the big parade.

TOBACCO HARVEST So Thought Three Men With $100 Box of the
 w ed. CAUGHT IN FAIR STREET Belief That Booty Was Stolen From Derby
 Express.
CAUGHT IN FAIR STREET

X Because Detective McAvoy happened to be patWling about in the vicinity of Fair street, last evening three men with a big box of tobacco that 1t is thought they must have stolen from one of the express wagons of Sloans Derby express failed to dispose of 1t according to their hearts desre. The box was huge one that fully required three persons to conveniently handle and was full of tobacco in various forms, some in paper packages, some in boxes of cigars and in other conditions. The detective noticed the three men making with the box into an alleyway that leads off from Fair street and he investigated. As result thereof he landed the three with a fourth man who seemed in some way connected with them in the lookup. The three with the box are charged with theft while the fourth is held for the pres ent at least on charge of drunken ness.
 The box which was stolen was ad- dressed to c. w. Canheld in Shelton and was probably taken from one of the express teams that was taking it to that town. It Is estimated that it's contents were worth about $1oO. The men who were taken for the theft have records with the local police, Frederick c. Mcfarland gave an ad- dress of 161 West street and said that he was thirty-three years of age. Hen ry of the same name says he lives at 22 Putnam street and Is twenty seven. Thomas DeBowes is the third in the triumvirate and is forty-two His ad- dress is confined to New Haven. The fourth man is Patrick Burke, forty four years of age and claiming no res- idence at all.
