FAIRFIELD COUNTY ITEMS.
_ ROWETON.

' No clue has yet been obtained to the origin
of the fire which resulted in the destruction
of Col. Raymond’s store. There are some
reasons for suspecting that the store was
robbed before the torch was applied. Nothing
danuted, the Colonel will speedily erect an-
other building on the same site. A Bridge-
port firm expressed its sympathy in the
shape of a check for $50.

Mr. Charles H. Guider, late of the U. S.
Navy, has opened a new grocery store near
the Landing. Mr. G. is a Son of Temper-
ance, and of course will conduct his business
on temperance principles.

The cargo of the propeller “Liberty,”
wrecked 01f Norwalk Light House, has been
brought into Five Mile River by the oyster-
mcn' and landed upon the docks. She had
190 inns of coal on board, and was bound
for Hartford. She also had a loaded barge
in tow, which was taken on by a tug. The
propeller was full of water, and had to be
lightened ofher boiler preparatory to getting
her off the reef.

The four o’clock freight train from New
York now stops at Rowayton Depot every
Monday and Thursday, thus accommodating
the oyster shippers, whose principal trade is
with Eastern parties. Their oysters, this
season, have the genuine original plumpness
and ilavor which formerly made them the
best in the market. The oysters about City
Island and other parts of the East River are
far behind Norwalk oysters in quality this
year.

Mr. Le Grand Lockwood has honored him-
self and helped a worthy cause by presenting
a check fOr $200 to the 3d M. E. Church. It

- is not long since he gave the same amount to
the Union Chapel in West Norwalk.

The District School at Rowayton already
enumerates about ninety scholars in daily
attendance. Miss Emily Lockwood has
charge of the primary department, and given ,
excellent satisfaction. The new school law
is working wonders in this as well as in
other districts. Anew school-building seems
imperatively demanded to accommodate the
increased attendance.

A large class of young people has been
organized to learn the elements of vocal
music, and meets weekly in the Methodist
Church. They have adopted the new church
music book published by Mason Brothers,
entitled “The Temple Choir.” The ultimate
object aimed at is to promote congregation-
al singing in both the churches by giving all
an Opportunity to learn the “divine art” and
familiarizing them with the tunes best adapt-
ed t‘or general use.

 

REDDING.

Thanksgiving day is celebrated, here, in
the good old Connecticut style, by the meet-
ing and greetings of relatives,and the eating
of sumptuous dinners. All seem to adopt
the epicurcan motto: “Dum vivimus, viva-
mus,” while we live, letus live. The poorest
family in town has a good dinner on this
day.

A grand wedding occurred here 3) day, in
the M. E. Church. Mr. John Nickcrson a3]
llfiss Helen M. Davis were married at noon,
and shortly after took the cars for parts un-
known. The bride, arrayed in steel colored
poplin, lace 8:. white flowers, appeared, as a
matter of course, lovelicr than ever before;
but it is useless to attempt a description for

“Who hath not proved how feebly words essay
To 11: one spark of Beauty’s heavenly ray?”

The ceremony,though brief passed off to the
satisfaction of the spectators and all concern-
ed, and “allwent merry as a marriage bell.”

The Congregational Church is about to lose
the services of that excellent man, Rev. Mr“
Gliddon. It has been suggested, that the
Gong. and M. E. churches now become con—
solidated, under the pastorate of one clergy-
man. This should be done; then they could
raise a respectable salary, and command the
services of some of the best talent. The
two societies united, would fill either church
and form a fine country congregation. The
Episcopal church has at length secured an-
other pastor, the Rev. Mr. Hoffman.

The ladies of this society are to have an
Oyster Festival next Wednesday evening for
the purpose of raising funds to paint the
church, &c. Success to their efforts!

 

BETHEL.

ment for the town.

Rye, and S. Edwards .Todd, agricultural
editor of the N. Y. Times, visited Rowayton,
a few weeks since, to witness the operation
of a hay and grain loader invented by Dr.
A. W. Lozier, of New York City. Th!
loader is a novelty in its way,- and lifts 100
or 200 weight of hay or unhusked corn in
the stalk from the ground and places it upon
the load by the application of one wheel of

in the same manner they picked it up.

The plan for the new ball, to be put up on
the corner of Mainand West Streets’ is al-
ready completed. The building is to be of

incidentally invented a. fork to be used with
the loader, which 'is said to surpass any
horse hay-fork yet in use. The committee
aforesaid have published a highly compli-
mentary article of the two inventions in the
reports of the Farmers’ Club,rccommending
the loader as a great lubor‘as well as time-
saving machine much needed by farmers.
The Doctor is perfecting arrangements with
a prominent agricultural house in New York
to bring out the loader and fork and furnish
them to the market in season for next year’s
harvest. The price of the machine will
probably. not exceed $25 or $30, and that of '
the fork will be about $12. The inventor is
the son of a distinguished female physician
in New York, whose practice is said to be
worth at least $15,000 a year.

 

DARIEN.

The Darien Temperance Union has been
making very gratiiymg headway, constant-
increasing in numbers, influence and public
confidence. At its last meeting, which was
addressed in an able and interesting style
by Mr G. I-Ia'ulenbeek of So. Norwalk, an
election for officers was held which resulted
in the choice of Mr. C. W. Lounsberry for

rest. J. C. Mather for Vice P., Geo. Clock,
Sec’y. and M. E. Mead,'Treas.

The Union perceiving the want. of recrea-
tion for the young men and others of the vil-
lage, has decided to established a reading
room and library that they may have a ‘
pleasant place and employment for long
evenings. Already, liberal offers have been
made of books and news papers. (The Nor-
walk Gazette may be counted among, them)
and all are solicited without respect to creed
or politics, to do what they can for this no-
ble object. -

To assist this cause, a festival will be held
at the residence lately completed on the
South Side of Prospect Ave. the 5th from
Mansfield Ave, on‘ Tuesday eve Dec. lst.,
(see advertisement) to which all should go
even if it requires an effort to do so.

School matters are still producing consid-
erable excitement which will no doubt re-
sult in much good to the public.

The people of Daricn did not forget the
widow, the father-less and the poor on
Thanksgiving day,—among the liberal do-
nations may be mentioned those of Mr. Benj.
Fitch and W. A Cummings.

The union Thanksgiving services of the
three churches Presbyterian, Methodist,and
Congregational, were held in the Congrega-
tional church, but the morning proved very
stormy which kept many at home.

Schooner Nelson, Capt. Harvey Weed for
some time running between Daricn & N. Y.
is about making trips to a. southei‘n port;
and her late business will be carried on by
the Sloop J ulia, late of Five Mile river.

 

NEW CANAAN.

Mr. W allacc Dann continues running the
stage between New Canaan and Norwalk
The line is a great convenience to many pas-
sengers and we trust the public will contin-
ue to give it a good support.

Capt. R. W. Shufeldt, U. S. N., (formerly
U. S. Consul at Havana,) is to deliver his
lecture on Cuba, before the Lyceum, in the
Town Hall, on Tuesday evening, the 8th
inst. A rich treat may be expected.

We learn from the Era that the “attempt:
to organize a Lyceum, “like all other at-
tempt: for the good of the community in
New Canaan,was successful.” A room is
to be engaged and weekly meetings will soon
commence. The following named gentle-
men are the officers: Solomon Lockwood,
Pres; R. W. Rockwell, Sec.; Francis E-
Weed, Treas. .

A Supper is to be given at the residence
of Stephen E. Keeler, Smith’s Ridge, on
Thursday evening. Mrs. Keeler, who thor'
oughly understands engineering an enter
taiumentof this kind, provide: the oatables’
for the benefit of the Sunday School of St_
Mark’s Church. ,

The Era says that Capt. Purdy’s house
was taken by storm, one evening recently
and the family “surprised.” The loquacious
Captain, however was fully equal to the
emergency, and the party passed off very
pleasantly.

The Edwin Weed place has been sold for
$10,000.

the use of their church edifice for the occa-

BRIDGEPORT.

There was a little excitement created at
the depot Tuesday afternoon by a fuss be-
tween a newly married couple and some
outsiders. The couple were waiting to take
the 5 p. m., train down the road, and the 01;-
position, lead by an elderly female, seemed
inclined to dispute their right to do so.—
Thcre were some sharp passages between
the bridegroom and the woman' aforesaid
and doubts were cast by the latter upon the
validity of the marrriage,but the opportune
presence of the clergyman who had perform-
ed the ceremony, and the presence of a po-
liceman seemed to settle the trouble, and the
happy couple departed on their tour unmo-
lested.

We learn that the choir of Christ Church,
has been recently reorganized and has re-
ceived several very important additions.
This choir is under the leadership of H. H.
Blish, well known in this State as a musician
and conductor, and he has succeeded in plac~
ing it on a very satisfactory footing. Miss
Fanny Bixbcc, formerly of Dr.Mead’sChurch,
Norwalk, is engaged as Soprano. Miss
Mary Hobbs. of this city, an accomplished
vocalist and musician, will sing Alto; Mr.
E. Spinning, Tenor, and Mr. Doty, formerly
of Dr. Mead’s Church, Norwalk, Bass. The
rendering of Church music by this Quartfie
is very fine, and altogether they form a very
excellent and efficient choir. " .

The race: at the Park on Saturday after.
noon, between Honest John and Brown
George, single to harness, was won by the
former horse in three straight hearts.

The property on State St, next north of
the post ofiiee, known as the “ad City drug
store,” has been purchased of S. H. Wales,
by Mr. Samuel B. Beardsley, of Monroe, for
about $4,000.

An Irishman named James Kavanaugh
was run over in East Bridgeport, Wednes-
day evening, by the 0.30 train for New Hu-
vcn. Both his feet were run over, crushing
them so badly that they were amputated.
The man died Thursday afternoon from the
effects of his injuries.

Wood Brothers have commenced the man-
ufactory of velocipedes—the new two wheel-
ed vehicles that am destined soon to become
all the rage.

A company has been formed in New York
for'thc purpose of manufacturing and intro-
ducing McNeil &Caldwell’s patent Car Heat-
ing apparatus.

At a meeting of the Directors of the Li-
brary Association, the old board of oflicers
was rc-clccted for the ensuing year. It was
voted unanimously to change the location of
the Library from its present position to the
rear room (fronting on Beaver street) in the

second story of Mr. Wheeler‘s new building
on the corner of Main and Beaver streets.

Charles C. Dudley, lately principal in the
East Bridgeport Public School, has we learn

their future home.

Five cars of the up freight train on the
N augatuck Railroad were smashed up Tucs-
day, afternoon, by the breaking of an axlé

Patent Fruit Jar.

 

The Most Complete Jar Made ,

[to Superior Advantages.
Finer—Its completeness In its arrangements and
combinations as Ii per/cctfruit praserror.

SnooND—It is provided with a divided Ring. which
is easily attached to or detached from the Neck of the
Jar. and secured by a Bail.

Tomb—When the band and hail are applied, its
combinations form a complete handle, thereby dis-
pensing with all lifters or other appliances, which
have hitherto been in use for removing the Jar from
boiling water.

Founm—It is cdnstructed with a Glass Cover, which
sets 0ch the neck of the Jar, resting on an elastic
band on the outer surface of the shoulder, thus pre-
venting any flavor being imparted to the fruit by me-
talic or poisonous substances. This advantage alone
coders its superiority such as to bring it into immo-

iatc and general use with the public.

Full diroctions for cooking with each Jar.

For sale by the Case or Dozen.
