him off. Wednesday night, the 25th, a gang
attacked his house again, and he fired a shot-
gun at them. One Warren Wells received
the charge in his face, and if he eventually

A few days ago we alluded to the fact that
ground had been broken for a new factory
to be located on Railroad avenue between
Myrtle and- Park avenues. The factory is to
be built for the manufacture of the “Thomp-
son’s patent glove fitting corset.” The firm
is an old established one, and they have now
in England at Old Ford Bow, London, a
factory covering three acres of ground. They
are establishing this branch factory in Bridge-
port in’ 'order to supply the American mar-
ket. The new building will be located on
the southwest corner of Myrtle and Railroad

The Woman Question.
The following comes to us from a scholar
and minister at the West, whose name, were
we at liberty to use, would add great weight
to his remarks :
I cannot refrain from" again thanking you
for,the timely words you have spoken on the
relation of the W. B. M. I. to the “Woman
Question.” Your first admonition was need-
ed, and the manner in which you have sus-
tained it, is better than the admonition itself.
Your sentiment that “twenty thousand, or
twenty millions, of dolla-‘s per year would
not compensate the worlc for the loss of the
Puritan woman,” ought to be sounded through
the land in trumpet tones. For I assure you,
that, here at the west at least, the demorali-
zatlon of thou ht and fet‘ing upon thatIsub-
ject, which eXlsts even in the Congregatlonal
churches, is most lamentable and astonishing.
In fact the great danger to the true idea of
womanhoood is now approaching: not from
the direction of free love, free marriage, free
divorce and woman suffrage, that is, not
from these directly, but from the invidious
napping of foundations, of female modesty
through perverted religious conscience. The
Cross of Christ is to-day prostituted to the
unholy work of degrading, coarsenin be
fine tone of female character in our churc es
and in the country. Revivals of religion,
and the temperance reform in particular, have
been made the avenues of this bad work. It
is to me simply astonishing to what an extent
the idea that a different fine-toned modesty
.lmnw tispvnected f men belongs ro -
erly to The character of) wome’n‘, is 1381 Twirl
of. . People seem to suppose trial. if a woman
18 Virtuous, z. e., Wlll not commit Iovnication
or adultery, that is all that is necessary.
What a virtuous man may do, a woman
may do, is the idea of thousands. Muititudes
of excellent Christians, too, think that acts
which would otherwise be immodest for a
woman, are right and modest if done for
Christ, I have heard both these positions
taken by high authorities in public speech, in
the pulpit and in religious prints. The end
sanctifies the means—Congregirtwnalzist.

A Suggestion.
A well to-do citizen of Detroit almost had
the breath knocked out of him by the request
of a ragged sidewalktramp, who stopped him
and asked: “ Say, can't you lend me‘$10,-
000 f” '
“ What! Who are you, sir? No, sir.
can’t, sir i” exclaimed the citizen.
“ Couldn’t possibly do it, ch 2’”
“ No, sir.”
“ Tell you what you might do,” suggested
the tramp. “You might hand me fifteen cents
now and lend me the balance when times get
a little easier.”
“ I can’t lend you a shilling, sir, or a cent,
sir, and I won’t give you a penny, sir."
“Sorry both of us happun to be so hard up
at once,” sighed the tramp, and he continued
his walk—Detroit Free Press.

In six days’ fishing in the Rangley Lakes,
Maine, the members of the Oquassoc Ang-
ling Association havo captured nearly 200
trout. many of them weighing over three
pounds each. Of 23 brook trout, the small-
est weighed three pounds and the largest
eight pounds. They were all taken in fair
play with the artificial fly, the ll htest tackle
and seven ounce bamboo rods. t took an
angler three-quarters of an hour to subdue
and landfills cight-pouuder.

WEST PORT.
Straws tell which _way _the wind blows..
Although there is general complaint of “hard
times,” the Messrs. Staples who IllI'RIlll us
with everything to build a house and very
little in that line is needed here ; within the
last month laid ill more than three-fourths
of amillion feet of lumber from Florida,
Georgia, Maine and Albany. They think if
Tildcn is elected, the article of lumber will
advance double under his and Hendricks
inflated currency and are Sure it cannot be
lower, should that honest man Hayes be
elected.
When Presiding Elder Hubbeil's house at
Saugatuck is finished and painted, it will be
iapt to take the “shine” oil the M. E. church
‘ next door, which is acknowledged to be finer
in design and architecture than the majority
.of country churches in_the State.
Town meeting, Saturday afternoon next,
when the Town Treasurer is expected to re-
port. The condition of Town finances as
taken from figures, have already been pre-
sented in this column.
To accommodate a large number of patrons
residing at the east side, Capt. Isaac Sher-
wood hauled his sloop, the C. H. Phillips,
over to J csups’ (lock last week, where onions
and other market produce could be taken on
board without making a journey to the west
side by way of the “old” bridge.
Mr. J. D. Piunkett of New Haven. and
Mr. F. A. Marden of Stamford, two gentle-
.lnen, and lawyers of rising prominence, ex-
plained at Sturges’ Hall, Thursday hight,
'tWO knotty questions, viz. :—In what respects
the democratic party is to be the balance
wheel regulating the machinery of National
government, and the purity of the democratic
party (not in power for sixteen years and
therefore powerless to steal) ‘19 compared
with the republican party, who, in power
during that time, have squelched a great
rebellion, and knocked the spots out of
much of the debt lnade necessary to carry
on tile war against said rebellion. It was
amusing to hear the applause invariably
called forth at each allusion to office and the
prospective return to power.
Just one month to get turkeys ready for
Thanksgiving, which occurs Thursday,
November 30th.
Mr. Chauncey Taylor ofCalifornia, a native
and former resident bf Westport, reached
here Saturday night for a short visit. His
presence recalls memories of that period in
village history, when, “Sam" Chamberlain
was believed to be the coming man, and
society was accepted as something more than
an empty name.
It may be of interest to know who were
admitted electors of the State of Connecti.
cut in this town in 1836—the first year. after
the town’s incorporation, and how many of
them are living. Lewis N. Nash, Jr., Wil-
liam Sturges, Charles Hurlbutt, Charles
Fairchild,David Whitney, Charles J. Hurl-
butt, Thaddeus Perry, J r., James E. Brown,
Walter Gray, Hezekiah Lockwood, Thomas
B. Bennett,Homer Boardman,W. H. Adams,
W. E. Dikeman, Joseph Sturges, Zalmon
Patcllen, Edward Weed, Edwin Disbrow,
Benjamin Fillow, 2d, IV. H. Davis, James
H. Mallory. Of these the following are
living :—-Charles Fairchild, David Whitney,
Hezekiah Lockwood, W. H. Adams, W. E.
Dikeman, Benjamin Fillow, 2d, W. H.

The visiting stranger standing at the cen-
ter of the village bridge at this time, looks
westward over the men at work joining ‘the
iron parts of the new bridge,and sees a mag-
nificent specimen of the “stars and stripes”
bearing the names of Hayes & Wheeler
(words spelled right) suspended across the
street in front of the Bank. He feels that
those names mean the honor and defence of .
that flag. Looking eastward, from whence
light should come, he sees the dark, begrim-
med out-line of a. banner upon which appear
misspelled names as if the artist had had an
attack of etymological colic while doing the
painting. The check of Tilden’s life-size
face exhibits a blush as if a spasmodic,
scrawny old maid had embraced and kissed
it. Hendricks countenance is all aglow as if
just slapped by the paw of that “rag baby,”
he is trying to spank into submission. The
stranger sees the not supporting the two
faces and fancies it is emblematic of the
meshes which, after next Tuesday may land
them high and dry on the banks of “Salt
River.” The rope holding the banner ex-
tends from the Hotel to the [hickory pole
opposite. Tildcn is on the side nearest the
bar-room.
Rev. David Nash of South Norwalk, of-
ficiated Sunday, at the M. E. church for Rev.
Mr. Stebbins who is at the Centennial.
Mrs. Andrew C. Nash’s illness is of the
most serious character. Hope is entertained
however of her recovery.
People make this remark about the iron end
of the bridge now going up :—It will when
done, he so handsome as compared with 'the
old end, that there will ere long be a clamor
for a complete reconstruction of the bridge,
regardless of the expense.
A Hayes and Wheeler club, with Capt.
James E. Hubbell, president, twenty-five
vice presidents, A. T. Burr, Secretary, F. B.
Morehouse, Treasurer, Geo. S. Adams,‘F. B.
Morehouse, D. B. Bradley, Executive Com-
mittee, and upwards of sixty members, was
organized last Monday evening. Mr. Haulcn-
beck of Norwalk addressed the meeting.
Uniforms and torches for the “Boys in Blue”
have been obtained and 'it is proposed to
make the balance of the time between this
and election day “red hot” for the Republi-
can candidates, and literally red hot for the
reformer ?)
About one hundred names have been sent
in to the Selectmen and town clerk “to be
made.” Democracy crawls over the list and
characteristically claims eighty-five per cent.
of them for its side
Grand Republican rally at National Rail
next Thursday night. The friends of good
government, invite such of the unterrified as
are deceiving themselves and the truth is not
in them, to come and hear of something to
their advantage.
The rector of Memorial church issued last
week the first number of a new Monthly
paper called the “Parish Record.” It treats
mostly of religious subjects.
It looks now as though the rush from
Westport to the Centennial’had just begun.
The SpogI Company at Saugatuck are run-
ning full" time, and turning out piles of
work.
Mrs. Edson Adams, accompanied by her
two sons, in behalf of her husband who is in
California and cannot at present come east,
last week visited his birth-place, the site of
the old saw mill, and the grist mill, all of
which are, to him, full of pleasant memories.
Mrs. A. also visited “Silercrow” school house,
and was shown by one who was there and
saw it, the window from whence thirty—six
years ago, a notorious pupil threw a fish line
and soon after pulled in to the amazement of
teacher and scholars, a flopping, squawking
gander which, in its greed for something
nice, had swallowed the apple-baited hook.
Mrs. A will soon leave for the West.
So many prowlers around, it may be well
for farmers having barrels full of cider :at the
north side of their houses, to drive the taps
firmly in Saturday nights. There is‘ no
knowing what may happen over Sunday.
The horse cars are doing a. good business.
and have settled down into instigations
which the town cannot do without.
Mr. John Gorilaln is having a dwelling
house built.
One of the best sermons of the season was
preached Sunday at Christ Church by Rev.
John R. Williams, from the text, “The wise

The political situation here suggests curious
thoughts, and as this is the last chance before
election, it may not be amiss to express some
of them. Of course Westport will go demo-
cratic though every man in the Republican
ranks votes. There are those here so full of
confidence in view of the local result that
they loudly announce the belief that the
country is sure for democracy also, while
such a thing is p0 ' some of these expec-
tants-may find, after ection day, that they

Capt. Fr'ed. Sherwood, while working at

The advantage of a meat pie is its cheap-
ness. Meat which is too tough tobc eaten in
any other form is made into a pie. The
crust should be light and flaky, and the pie
baked until the crust is done. Some people
like plenty of seasoning, but the chief requis-
ite for a'gooll pie is a broad and elastic throat
and a stomach with pronounced views:—

A widowers’ club has been formed in Mil-
ford, Mass. The platform declares (1) that
tobacco smoke is the best known preventive
of ennui, mosquitoes, and kindred afiiictions;
(2) that real comfort in this life is to have
things handy; (3) that washerwomen are
man’s greatest evil. Membership in the wid-
owers’ club is limited to gentlemen of aver-
age moral character whose wives arc out of
town.

A guest of Gov. Hayes this past Summer
says that duringa long visit he heard the
Governor mentlon his Presidential candidacy
but once, which was upon the receipt of a
letter of congratulation from the poet Whit-

to his famil , turned to Mrs. Hayes with the
rcmar , “ ell, wife, if we are not elected
we shall have the satisfaction of, knowing
that a great many good men voted for us.”

TROY, N. Y., October 24.-—A novel Hayes
and ‘Wheeler procession took place on the
Hudson river last night. The tugboats of
this city and Albany, about thirty in number,
formed in line at Albany and came up to this
city firing skyrockets and roman candles,
blowing whistles, etc. The scene from the
bridges, where several thousand people were
assembled, was beautiful. The utmost en-
thusiasm prevailed along the shore.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 25.—-The Swedish
commissioner received information to-day
that Professor Nordens Kialld, an eminent
mineralogist and explorer, 9. member of the
jury of award at the exhibition, and who
sailed the 29th of~Junc for Sweden, has al-
most accomplished a Siberian trip which he
had projected for this year. He sailed from
Sweden .iast August and succeeded in de—
monstrating the correctness of his theory in
regard to an open way to the Arctic sea. He
reports having found no obstacles, and con-
siders the way now quite open from Europe
to China via. the northern passage and the
valled of the Tensei river, by which river
communication is obtained across Siberia
and nearly to the frontier of China. All
immense area of fertile soil was found to
exist in this region, all of which is open to
immediate cultivation.

Indian Summer.
This halcyon period of our summer will al-
ways in some way be associated with the In-
dian. It is red and yellow and dusky like
him. The smoke of his camp-fire seems again
in the air. The memory of him pervades the
woods. His plumes and mocassins and blan-
ket of skins form just the costume the season
demands. It was doubtless the chosen period.
The gods smiled upon him then if ever. The
time of the chase, the season of the buck and
doe, and of the ripening of all forest fruit ;
the time when all men are incipient hunters,
when the first frosts have given pungcncy to
the air, when to ~be abroad on the bills or in
the woods is a delight that both old and young
feel,—if the red aborigino ever had his sum-
mer of fullness and contentment, it must have
beenat this season, and it fifly bears his name.

The Niagara Falls Gazette says: “Some
strangers, actuated by curiosity, threw a
goose into the river from the‘ bridge leading
from the main land to Bath Island, a few
days ago, to test if it could survive a trip
over the American fall. The goose made the
voyage in safety, and was subsequently se-
cured uninjured by a ferryman below the
cataract." .

A four-year-old boy, son of Mason Sage,of
West Wardsborough, Vt., was lost in the
woods last week, and had a play spell with
two black bears. They came up to him as
he sat on the grassin an open giade and smelt
of him. He patted them on their heads,
thinking they were dogs, and they then
walked away into the forest. Their foot-
prints disclosed that they were the “degs”
the boy‘told about encountering.

To Shake, or no! to Shake '1
Aye, that is the question. Is it better to quiver
from head to foot in the paroxysms of fever and
agne, or to banish the atrocious disease by a
course of that standard anti-febrile remedy, Hos-
tetter’s Bitters. There cannot be much doubt as
to the response of the malaria-stricken to this in-
quiry. From every locality on this continent whose
inhabitants are tormented with the shivering
plague comes an increasing demand for the only
genuine preventative and eradicant of malaria pro-
vided by science. The denizens of fever and sguc
districts know how utterly inadequate to do more
than give a brief respite are the so-called reme-
dies of the faculty. Quinine, arsenic, bismuth——
what are these but poisonous palliatives, which
cease after a time to produce any beneficial effect
whatever, and if persisted in wreak irreparable
mischief up in the system ? Everywhere they are
being abandoned by intelligent persons, and that
genuine vegetable specific for intermittent and re-
mittent disease, Iiostetter’s Bitters, substituted in
their place. lmlO
A tall \Vestem man standing six feet three

Cross, sickly babies and children, may enjoy
health, and mothers have rcst.il‘1hey will use Can-
toria. Worms, feverishness, teething, wind colic,
sour stomach and undigested food make children
cross. and produces sickness.
Castoria will assimilate the food. expel worms,
and correct all these thlngs. For twenty years
Dr. Pitcher experimented in his private practice
to produce an efl‘ective Cathartic and stomach reg-
ulator which would be effective as Castor Oil,
without its unpleasant taste or recoil.
Th‘e reputation of his experiment extended. Phy-
sicians and,nnrses rapidly adopted his remedy, to
which he gave the name of Castor-la.
Cnstoria is as pleasant to take as honey, regu-
lates the stoma bowels. and does not gripe.
It is adapted tags, contains no alcohol. and
is absolutely bar as to the most tender infant.
Try Castoria once, and you will never be without
it.
