 The couple were married in Litch- field. Conn, Feb. 20, 1859 by Rev. Will liam Howard. pastor of the Methodist church of that town. Mrs. Barnum was the daughter of Ira Taylor and Lucinda Beach, both of Cornwall, and came of old Revolutionary stock. MT. Barnun was the son of Curtis Bar mum of Kent, and is cousin of the late P. T.

 They have one grandchild. MT. Bar mum was a travelling salesman, until the infirmities of old age compelled him to give up his business, still he bears his age we'll and expects to cele- hrate more anniversaries. Mrs. Bar mum is a very welll looking woman for her years, one hardly surmising that she has been a wife for fifty years.
 MT Barnum is a veteran of the civil war. having enlisted with Go. D, Sec ond Connecticut Heavy Artillery, un- der Captain William B. Ells of Terry vile, During the war MT. Barnum was stationed mostly at Alexandria. He is member of Elias Howe IT,, Post, G. A. R.

 ADDRESS ON
 TUBERCULOSIS
Especial from United Press.


 l Hartford. Feb. 22.-Dr Stephen J fN1aher made the following address al the hearing before the Tuberculosis Commission this afternoon:
 Governor Lilley has said in his in ang7lral address that if the present sand of the people now alive in Con- necticut will die of tuberculosis. It is because of the general and increasing ly distinct realization of this fact that we have all enlisted for the war against consumption. And we fatte1 ourselves that we have already won so much victory. Wherefor we will like to think ourselves as benefactors of mankind.
 ..And it is of course right when the commission advises the state to ex- pend large sums of money it should. if possible, show to the state that such expenditure is a good business proposi- fion. That we have done in our re- port. But there is another side to the question which I think the committee should consider before deciding all the points involved in the bill.
 "A large proportion of the one hun dred thousand people of Connecticut which Governor Lilley says are sure to die of tuberculosis if present conditions arc not improved. will endure during the last months or years of their lives of misery an anguish that they would not have known if the tubercele bacil- aious had not been discovered and if you lawmakers. editors. clergymen and physicians and all the other mould CTS of public opinion had not organized the present great crusade against tuberculosis.
 Because of our work the poor con- sumptive of Connecticut is dropped from the payroll in the office or factory months before his earning capacity ceases and he receives every year less of that tender attention that he ex- pected in his last sad days. We forbid his wife to kiss him. We warn his children to avoid him. We put him on the public record as a danger to the community. We shrink from them in public houses and gatherings. We ad- wise hotels, hospitals sanitariums and boarding houses to refuse him admis- sion. We make an outcast of him. In simple justice we owe him a place of refuge. If he was a cat or a dog we could kill him. But he is our brother .--our sick brother. To preserve our self-respect we must give him a place of refuge. That the children who will grow up in Connecticut in the coming generation will not grow up utterly selfish and hard of heart we must let this conquest of tuberculosis go no Farther until we have provided a re- fuge for the poor consumptives whom we have made outcasts.

SMITHS.

The OHeflnS TOT this evening is an especially good one for holiday oc-
 casion, for it is a dramatization of
 George Barr McCutcheon's famous and widely read novel of 'Graustark,' ''
 presented by the same identical cast, and with the same splendid stage pro- auction which have been seen in all
 the large cities. Our theatre goers should take note of this fact, and the
 theatre this evening should be filled to it's utmost capacity.
 Mount thy camel, and be early at the gates the evening of tomorrow, oh. brother, for if thou 1ingerest too long at the wayside, there will be for thee no assistance. A long and dreary wait at the outer doors will affront thee. No seat in the place of pleas ure will be thine, until thou hast pass ed the period of probation; thy limbs will be weary with standing, thy >soul will long with yearning for the good things of the inner circle of the cho- sen. In other words, ye people who don't get in in time for the rising of the curtain at the performance of "The Pied Piper," by DeWolf Hopper and his excellent company, under the aus pices of the local Shriners, will be obliged to stand at the rear of the house until the conclusion of the first act of this noted play. The edict has gone forth, or fifth, and there is no re- coming from anyone. The hour is set at 8. Get there, and with both feet, or it is the long and weary wait for yours.
