MILLER STILL CRITICAL.
Man Who Stepped Backward Of Car
 in Bad Condition.

New Haven, Aug 17.-Getting of a trolley backwards may prove fatal to Ralph Miller, an elderly man from Middlef1eld, who Is now in the New Haven hospital in serious condition suffering from bad confusion of the head. Miller wanted to get off car at the corner of State and Trumbull streets Saturday night, where a woman fell and was killed a few weeks ago. He jumped backwards while the car was in motion, lost his footing and was thrown to the pave ment. He was hurried to the New Haven hospital where when he recov- cred consciousness he was found to be in delirium. Last night 1t was stated at late hour that he was sleeping peacefully but when awake he was still delirious. His condition was considered quite serious. No fracture of the skull has been found and confusion Is believed to be the extent of the injury.
 Miller has brother in Middlefield by the name of Fred Miller. The in- jured man is 60 years of aeg.

CONGRESS ON TUBERCULOSIS.
Membership in This State is Urged
 By State Health Board.

Secretary J. H. Townsend of the | state board of health in the July l bulletin of the board, which has just been issued, has the following to say | regarding the coming international congress on tuberculosis:
 The international congress on tu- berculosis meets in Washington, Sep Itember-October 12 inclusive, and should be of much interest to the people of Connecticut, both from the prevalence of tuberculosis in this state and from the successful work now being done here to control the disease. If this congress is to equal the last one held in Paris in 1905, it is necessary to have 10000 mem bers. This membership has been ap- portioned among the various states according to population and Connec- ticut's quota Is 1S0 members. Colo rado, which has a smaller population than we, says that they will be ashamed if they do not turn in 1000 members, and the health officers of Texas are to charter a special vesti- bule train to take them to the con- gress. Connecticut as yet has only one-third her quota of members. Is 1t not time for us to wake up? This congress will have members and ex- hibits from all over the world, and will be both interesting and instruc- tive to those who can attend. and where attendance is impossible, the published transactions, which will contain all the up-to-date matter on tuberculosis, will be well worth the cost of membership.
 The state committee on organiza- tion urges the people to join the con- gress whether they can attend or not, so that we can make ereditable showing for the state, and we ought to largely exceed our quota. The membership fee is s5, and in joining one does not obligate himself to any further subscription. as each con- gress has an organization and mem- bership of its own, meeting once in three years in different parts of the world. Membership is not limited to physicians, but men and women in all walks of life are desired as members. Some of the most effective anti-tuber- culosis work has been done by those outside the medical profession.
 Any one desiring to join the con- gress can send the membership fee to the undersigned who is chairman of the state committee on organiza- tion, and he will see that they are promptly enrolled.

KILLED BY TROLLEY
Lost Life While Sending on
 Track Wailing for Car.

Joseph Giordano, aged 20 years, or 409 East Main street, was killed Sat urday evening by the trolley at Quassapaug. He was employed by Matthew Schule as farm hand, and changed his clothes before dark and left the house. stating that he was coming to Waterbury. While wait ing for a trolley to come along he stood on the track and failed to hear an approaching car which hit him in the back, knocked him down and the front trucks passed over him be- fore the motorman could stop the car. Acting Medical Examiner Anderson of this city viewed the body after which it was removed to Lunny's morgue from where the funeral took place yesterday afternoon with ser- vice at the church of Our Lady of Lourdes and interment in Calvary cemetery. The deceased leaves wife and one child. His death caused quite sensation in the quiet old town of Middlebury, and reminded all that while the trolley is nice thing it is attended with great risk to life and limb.

SEEKING OWNER OF SHOES.
Mysterious Find on East Rock Still
 Bafies Detectives.

New Haven, Aug IA peculiar mystery still surrounds the finding of a pair of new snoes of fashionable. cut and a pair of expensive silk stockings on one of which was the print of a human hand in blood. When found the articles were neatly placed on a ledge in the wall of Eng fish drive.
 The shoes were made to order at A. Alexander's in Sixth avenue and though they had apparently not been worn more than a couple of times were badly ripped and scratched as though they had been dragged through 4nud and over rocks.
 Detective Henry Donnelly is inves- tigating the case and found a num- Der of foot prints which correspond in size with the shoes at a point little further along the drive.
 No signs of a scufie could be found, however.
 A local physician stated to the po- lice yesterday. but desired that his name be withheld from publication. that a woman called on him at his office wearing shoes and stockings answering the description of those found on the rock and had an injury to her leg dressed which she said she sustained in a trolley accident. She refused to give her name or where she was from and also refused to tell her name to the trolley conduc- tor as she did not wish to have t known that she vas in New Haven. She paid the physician and said she was not going to make any claim against the trolley company. Whether or not there is anything t0 the story h connection with the mys- terious find could not be learned by the detectives yesterday. The prin- cipaI clue which Is being followed is that the shoes were made to order and were numbered 1890 and the manufacturer probably could tell for whom they were made

DEFENsB AN ALIBI.
Judge Peasley Found Cause and Held
 Man Under $500.

till bearing the effects of the | fright she received when she saw Rocco Capodanno with revolver in one hand and a lighted match in the | other in her house on Dover street on the morning of Sunday, August g, Mrs Teresa Padavonna took the stand in the city court to-day to tes- tify in the case against Capodanno for burglary. She said she is poor woman with only her daughter, Anna, and they had retired on Sat- urday night about II o'clock, and few hours after were aroused by noise at the window shutters. Mrs Padavonna got up, struck a match and looked out into the kitchen and then she saw him with the revolver in his hand. Anna, her daughter, followed her to the kitchen and both women screamed. Just about the time the man in the kitchen and Mrs Padavonna struck the matches stone was hurled through the wo- mems bedroom and the upstairs ten- ant came down. Mrs Padavonna fainted and for two days was some- what out of her mind. Next day Anna reported the matter to the po- lice and she was shown the rogues gallery to see if she could see the face there that she had seen in the kitchen. She identified Capadonna, though in the picture his head is in bandages, and in the flesh he has a swarthy face, black eyes and black hair a few inches long. That after noon she saw Capadonna pass along Mill street and she identified him as the original of the picture she had seen in the rogues gallery. His ar rest followed.
 Mrs Padayonna was equally cer- tain the accused was the person she saw in her kitchen. She was still weak from the effects of the fright she received, and though she and her daughter were put through a rigor- ous cross-examination their evidence could not be shaken.
 Capadonna had half a dozen wit nesses to prove an alibi. showing that he ran his barber shop all day and went to bed about midnight. Capa- donna and all his family and board CTS sleep in the same room in two beds with curtain between them. His wife was his strongest witness.
 One of his witnesses was a young fellow who said he had heard of the matter from young French fellow who spoke to him in English, but who he was or where he lived he did not say.
 Judge Peasley found probable cause and held the accused in bail of $500.
