 FOR THEIR MALADY
Hay Fever Club Sneezes By the Sea At Annual
 Meeting.

New York, July 12-Medfca1 defini- ton of a sneeze:
 4 Convu1sive motion of the expira- tory muscles by which the air is drtv- en rapidly and rushes sonorously through the nasal fossae.
 Dubtless had the waitresses of the Surf Hotel at Ocean Beach known how sonorous1y the air can be driven through the nasal fossae they would have excluded roses from the dining room yesterday, when 100 members of the Hay Fever association arrived for dinner.
 Such forest ght might have saved many explosions and the ratthng of dinner plates. No window glass was broken.
 The dinner was a forerunner of a meeting held in the Casino, near by, and presided over by John A.. Wilbur, Secretary of the Harlem Board of Commerce. P. F. Jerome, Secretary of the United States Hay Fever asso- citation, sat at the Secretary'S table.
 Following the welcoming address. four negro musicians started to sing sing, composed for the occasion, to the tune of Michigan The first two lines rans:
 Ocean beach with ocean breeze
 Never can produce a sneeze.
 "Ac-ca-chooooooo!" came in chorus. from the members and drown ed the singers
 Before we get down to the serious matter of hearing from members who have tried remedies during the year let me introduce Miss Gertrude Eel lows of Blue Point, who will read an original poem,'' said Secretary Jerome Miss Fellows stepped forward and read:
 THE LAND BREEzE
 All flesh is grass; all fever hays
 Soft blows the soft land breeze this
 day,
 Mid golden grain and roses red,
 Indiff're to my aching head. { What gets me when the land breeze
 blows
 Is not the breeze. but my poor nose!

(statement of a Law Case adjudg- ed by LenueI Sanford, Esux. against Ebenezer Starr, Samuel c. Blaciman, him of Newtown, and Eli Hoyt, him of Danbury, in the Year of Our Lord, 1915, fortbDeaoh of the Sabbath.)
 Jonathan Couch, Grand Juryman
 Samuel c. Blackman. esq. him of Newtown was complained Of at the same time as was Ebenezer D. Starr, of. Danbury, but on writing to LepnueI Sanford, esq, that his wife was in g delicate condition. his name was eras- ed. Elf Hoyt. him of Danbury, was also complained of. but they very ju- dicious7y put junior when it should have been Eli Hoyt, 3rd- We were all that was complained of out of 4 persons which were on Lae stage at the time, and the only one prose cuted; how Justly will appear from the following facts.
 Whilst In New ork, s. B1ackman, esq. assisted me in my law case, and l conversed with him about coming home. he said he did not know which way to go, for if he went to Bridge port he had no sure way of getting from there to home; told him l thought he had better go to Norwalk and then take the stagei ne saio ne understood if the boat arrived in seq son that the stage went on Sunday informed him that the stage had run on Sunday most of the. time, but had not heard of it's being stopped in two or three years, ana presumed 1T he,went after church 1t would not give any offanse. We arrived in Norwalk betweens one and two o'clock, P M, and we remained there until after church. Mr. Whitlock kept urging the driver all the time to start, for fear wea should not get up till in the night; T told him thought best not to hurry. flor fear the people would not like to. have the stage run a1. thah time ofFt1ne day; but he assured me the people were perfectly satfs- fled with having the stage run on Sunday: but he did not know we visiting or he might have known we should have been complained of. The stage continued through the season on the Sabbath, and mo other person com. plained of, and run by the grand. 1t7rxraan's door-b5At it seems he did not happen to be out 8 visiting or undol1btedIy there would have been.
 After complaint was entered, and before prosecution, T saw l.. Sanford and informed him thought had sufficient excuse, but he said he could not do anything about 1t, only what was done in formal way. knew Esquire BIackn1an had written to him, so I wished him to stay the prosecu- tton few days and he did. During this time I saw Esquire BIackman and he told me he had written Esquire Sanford (no appeal to the grand jury man as far as can 1earn) the deli cate condition of his wife, and pre- sumed that there would not be any more done, and knowing that had the same excuse thought to let the matter work; but I was compelled to go to Bedding and take witness to prove the delicate condition of my wife and was fined besides after hear ing the gFand-jurynan acknowledge to the Court that all he wanted was my. money, or to complain of me; this I thought was a very moral case.

THE HARD CIDER TRAGED1

THE HAKED CIDER TRAGEDY
 One of a party of four occupying wagon which stopped in front of the City hall about 10:30 o'clock last evening was a dead man. No man would have suspected it except upon q close view as the figure was in an erect attitude and, as the saying is, looked as natural as life.
 The dead man was William Butler n young fellow belonging to the North Bridgeport Kelly tribe who had been killed in self defense by a blow upon xhe head delivered by Peter Winter, his employer. Winter had prompt 1y driven into town with the body of his victim from the Chopsy Hill road An Trumbu1I When upon leaving the team he entered the police sta-

 Secretary Jerome told how the United States Hay Fever association was formed in 1878 by Henry Ward Beecher, Frank B. Fay, former Mayor of Chelsea, and himself, of it's pur poses, and then ran through a list of sixty ''certain cures,'' asking for ex- pressions from those who had tried them. Two men present had tried all to Christian Science. Henry Altman and L. M. Jones sneezfly admitted having tried nfty-seven varieties of cures.
 ''Frieds, Dr. GoBdwaher has ordered that ragweed be enbidated frob all public parks i'd Dew York" said Dr. Paul 'F'ranzel, property clerk Of Bel levue Hospital. ''I have here a. res luttod." He read his resolution as follows:
 Resolved, that the Fire 1slad beedg of the hay fever v1ctbs geratedy ap- preciates the actiod of the Dew York City Board of Health, udder the lead ersf1ip of Dr. Goldwater, i'd adopt1g regulatiods lookig toward the eradi- catiod of rasweed frob the parks i'd all the boroug1s.
 The resolution was adopted with a unanimous chorus of sneezes.
 Perhaps the most interesting --cure'' exploited by manufacturers was one which provides a germ which IS Sas friendly with the hay fever germ as the Kaiser is with King George. This germ, or whole bunch of 'er1, one snuffs up the nose. Then begins a. fight beside which a European battle field is an old maids tea- ending in an explosion which elects all the con- tending germs "soronously through the nasal fossae," as the medical definition might say.
 Another absolutely certain remedy was described thus: Thrust the fling CTS down the throat ,grasping the soft palate firmly Pull 1t well out of the mouth and let it snap back sharply. Repeat until an explosion results, which will expeI the active germs.
 'sI hope to see you all at Bethle- hem, N. H., next September, at the annual meeting," said Secretary Jerome at the close.

A correspondent residing in the up- per part of the city sends us the fol- lowing which explains itself:
 Messrs- Edftorsc--T11e lower part fPark-tTle Eastern District it's i'm proved Park-why should not the up- ped portion of the City be looked af- ter? Less than a quarter of Q mile from the corner of Main and Pequon- mock streets is one of the most beau tffu11y wooded tracts of land to be foundsin the State.
 seBeachss Woods'' lis too well known fo our citizens to need even de- scrfptfon. Visited every summer by picnic and pleasure parties, and by thousands of individuals during that season and for into the autumn, ev- cry avenue and walk throughout it's length and breadth is familiar to the lovers of beauty and nature unadorn- ed The claims of this district, ft seems to me should not be overlooked; i; the city is fast pushing to the very they will pass away before the rapid march of Improvements. and the growth Of our thriving city. Now is the time to move in the matter, while our citizens are thoroughly awake to the importance of possessing breath ing places for the populace.
 The citizens of the Second District are taxed to pay for City improve ments, police, lamps, etc. and enjoy a less number of the benefits of a corporate city than any other portion of it. Why is this? Who will move Tn t11is matter, and set on foot meas ures for the acquisition of s'Beach's g Woods more suitable for a public park not only on account of size and location. but for the many natural advantages it possesses over both the other parks already secured.

BUILDING INSPECTOR


 The Building Commissioners met yesterday and reelected Isaac w. Day building inspector for the next three years. Only one ballot was taken and this resulted in two votes for MT. Day and one for John Barr, who is a member of the commission. Mr. Day was immediately apprised of his reelection.
 All the commissioners were on hand at the meeting. Commission CT Flames who succeeds H. M. Purdy was first sworns,9fn. Commissioner Barr. who acted as clerk, suggested that the first ballot be informal. It was expected that the first vote would stand one each for Day, Moff- man and Barr, as it was, understood last evening that MT. Flames had agreed to vote for him. If Flames had done so it is probable that MT. Barr would have followed his exam pie and MT. Rowland would have been elected

 The old fashioned custom of liberal l 1y supplying hay field workers with a1- coholic drinks still survives to some extent and such supply was made part of the agreement between Butler and Winter. The beverage in this
 case was cider. Butler had been well supplied with the beverage dur ing working hours and after his day s work was completed he asked Winter for more of. the juice of the apple. Winter told him there was none but promised to get some the first thing in the morning.
