WI NN I PAII K .
Notwithstanding the. unusually severe
storm Monday evening last, a large number
of the members and invited guests of Old
Oaken Bucket Lodge, No. 178 I. 0. of G. T.
assembled at the school house to .celebratc
it's First. Anniversary, and if ”1110. elements
outside contributed to discomfort, within
tbir effects interfered nota whit with the
pleasure and enjoyment of the evening.
The programme as arranged by the Commit-
tee was an excellent one and was fully
carried out.: Andrew R. Wardrop in‘ the
absence of the W. C. T., Edson Ayers, presi-
Ilgll with his usual dignity. A record of tlle
Lodge‘s transaction for the past year was
read by brother Ed. Northrop. An excellent
address \vas delivered by the Rev. Garret
llaulcnbeck, it was an earnest and impas-
sioned appeal ill favor of the work the Lodge
is engaged in and was listencd‘to with mark-
ed attention by the audience. Refreshménts
of which there was plenty and to spare was
served, much to the gratification of all pres-
cut, and all worked earnestly to make this
part of the programme anything but a failure
and from “what I 'c know of Refreshments"
we would say they succeeded admirably.
After refreshments and “under the good of -
the Order" Songs and Recitations followed
each other in quick succession for over an
hour, by the members of the Lodge, and Mr.
Me. Nanghton who contributed a Poem,
which he read, and was encored when he
recited by request in his usual admirable
manner “Tell’s address to his native moun-
Stains."
The singing of Miss Lizzie and ‘Ida Crow-
ther was a specially pleasing part; of the
evenings entertainment, and they, with the
contributors to the refreshments will please
accept the thanks of the Committee.
The Anniversary Meeting was closed by
singing the Doxology, and all went home
satisfied with the evenings entertainment.
August Disbrow and Willie Armstrong
the two youths who ran away from home on
the evening of the 18th inst. returned during
the past. week, no doubt. satisfied from exper-
ience that “there’s no place like home."
Mr. Andrew Hutchinson is adding to the
convenience of his estate by erecting a barn
thereon. .
The M. D‘s. are busy just now.
and sore throats are very prevalent.
The building recently vacated by George
Bracken remains unoccupied, would it not on
account of its size and location answer neatly
the purpose of this village for a Public Hall,
Sabbath School Room, Lodge Room and
Library. We hope something may be done
soon either in this or some other direction to
satisfy the needs of the Socities and the
public.
Mike Melinerny is spoken of- for the posi-
tion of Post Master ill the event of the acces-
sion of Tildcn to the Presidency. J. B. r

Services are to be held in the three church-
es, Thanksgiving day. At the Congregational
Church, Mr. Teller will give an historical
discourse. He delivered it two years ago,
alld now repeats by requests. A good idea
for the Centennial year. »
The Popular Lecture Course, which was
spoken of last week as an experiment, can
now be called a success. It opened Friday
evening with an audienccof one hundred and
ninety-two, thus insuring the financial suc-
cess of the enterprise. The lecture by Prof.
Rice was interesting to nearly all, though
necessarily somewhat dry to those who have
given but little attention to geology. The
new Hall stood the first test well. Fully
lighted, comfortably seated, and finely adap-
ted for public speaking.
The next lecture will he December 9th, by
Col. Spragne, whothe New York Tribune
considers one of the most popular lecturers
in this country.

Ills religious belief, founded upon a thorough

him a “restful peace” in this life and an.
abiding faith in that which is to come. -

The annual meeting of the stockholders of
the Shepaug Valley railroad was held recent-

Selectman James Smibcrtkis in a-Lfair way
of getting himself into notorietyg and-along
with it the horse rgilroad,__f As all know, the
railroad company have proceeded in their
every move with caution, taking care to con-
sult the people, Igud in particular the select-
mcu as to the best method of laying tracks.
The selectmen acquisced in all the company
’did and-the peoplettl'lought they saw prog-
ress: or the town. The track approaches to,
’jthc bridge were'laid by tbelcompany precise-
lyah suggested, the 'selectmen even putting
special timbers into the bridge for the road's
accommodation. Mr. Sessions was the con-
traetor and did his work well, but by reason
of delay in finishing the bridge, he was un-
able, by reason of engagements elsewhere to
finish it. Mr. E. S. Downes took the con-
tract off his hands, and on Tliursday while
at work on the bridge was approached by Mr.
Smibert who found fault with the 3er in
which the work was going on,——therails
were too far from the side of the bridge—
there was too little space for vehicles etc.
Mr. Downes'kcpt on with his work. ' Mr. S.
warming up, in aloud voice ordered Mr. D.
to do thus and so. Mr. D. said he was not
to be deterred by threats, which made Mr.
S. so mad that be filled the air with imprcca-
lions, and even threatened to tear the rails
up. He actually seized one rail with intent
to throw it Into the river but its weight re-i
strained him. He called lllr. D. a liar, other-
wise vilified him, and hinted that he would
have him arrested if he did not cease work
Mr. D. took it all cooly. A crowd of people
heard all that was said. Saturday Mr.‘ D.
reached the drawbridge and was putting the
rails on it when Mr. S. again appeared, and
the scene of Thursday was again repeated,
er. S. this time getting as mad as an August
hornet with its stinger cutbut. Mr. D. paid
little attention to the curses and oaths hurled
at him, and laughed after Smibert had been
before two justices for a writ of arrest and
failed. Smibert left. Downcs, and in the
evening button—holed President Hurlbutt who
refused to shift the tracks from the line es-
tablished. This caused Smibert to boil over
in madness again, and again he threatened to
have the tracks either torn up, or to enjoin
the company from driving their cars across
the bridge. Mr. H. told S. to crack bis whip‘
all be pleased in a. proceeding of that kind.
In this state the matter rested over Sunday,
during the sacred hours of which common
sense people pondered on that old fable of
the frOg which fancied it could become an ox,
and in the effort to swell itself up to that
animals’ proportions, burst. It is believed
Mr. S. will apply to the Superior Court to-
day (Monday) for an injunction, and it is
further believed the company‘s answer will
be the means of sending said injunction, if S.
should really obtain it, higher than a kite.

Mr. D. A. Salmon in Betts’ store Friday—am
asked him “how about fraud in Southern Re-
turning boards 7*” Salmon replied that the
cry of fraud would, with better grace, come
from another quarter. The rejoinder was,
that, if similar language was repeated the‘
person using it might get knocked down.
Salmon invited the reformer (1’) to try it just
once, adding that the game would cost the
reformer (?) all he could earn in one year.
The reformer, with characteristic agility
wilted. .
Two horses in charge of a peddler of kind-

it their highest pleasure to partake of savory
dishes the like of which can only be enjoyed
in Connecticut—~uuder the roofs of old home-

the day bring as many pleasant memories
as have its yearly predecessors.

Everybody knew W'm. Jesup, for he had
passed his long life with the exception of a
brief interval, in this town, and for nearly
half a century was identified, in a business
way, with affairs in the village. A sad
thought suggested by his demise is'that Mr.
Jessup was almost the last one of those whose
names are so familiar to us all as representing
the early progress of the place. He had been
in failing health for many months and to-
wards the last was so feeble that he could
barely sustain himself in his short journeys
to and fronl the village, and his decease as

TWEED.
William M. Tweed was ylzsterday return-
ed to the custody of the Sherifi of New
York County, from which he escaped on
Dec. 4, 1875. The reason which impelled
Tweed to flight was the discovery that 26
criminal indictments had been found against
him, that James H. Ingersoll had turned
State’s evidence and been released from
State Prison to testify against him, and that
his conviction on various indictments was
certain. He escaped in a yacht, which
landed him in an unfrequented port of the
coast of Cuba, whence he made his way to
Havana. There for some time he was under
the surveillance of the American Consul and
as he asserts, the protection of the Captain-
Gencral, Jovellar, who demanded and ob-
mined large sums of money, amounting to
$300,000, from him. The pursuit of the
United States officials became so close that
Tweed was forced to hasty flight to Spain,
where he was recognized, arrested, and de-
livered to the commander of the United
States frigate Franklin for transportation to
this country.
He was surrendered to the Sheriff of New
York yesterday afternoon, and is now under
clOse confinement in Ludlow street jail, pend-
ing trial on the criminal indictments found
against him. The capture of Woodward
greatly complicates Tweed’s defense and ren-
ders his case all the more hopeless.

DEAR GAZETTE :
Although there has been no official count
of the votes in Louisiana and Florida; still
the feeling that Hayes has a majority, on.an
honest count in both . States, seems to have
been strengthened by unofficial information
received here during the week passed.
Private letters and dispatches place the re-
sult beyond influence of democratic corrup-
tion or the interference of state courts. The
belief seems to be general here thatthe action
taken by the Florida. Courts is entirely ille-
gal, and undoubtedly whichever party is de-
feate‘d by the decision, they will carry it to
the United States Supreme Court:
A few members of Congress have arrived
here, and preparations are actively going on
at the Capitol for the convening of Congress
on Monday,December 4th. In the Senate
Chamber, several alterations have been made,
chiefly to secure a better ventilation. The
seats have been re arranged in order to pro-
vide for the. two new Senators from Colorado.
The end seats on each row have been remov-
ed and an additional .‘ow placed in the rear,
on both sides. ‘
The election for Speaker is the all absorb-
ing topic of conversation among the demo-
cratic members and in the hotel lobbies. It.
looks as if “Sun'Set” Cox,would be distanced,
as Sayler and Randall are the prominent can-
didates named. But there is no telling what
the “Solid South" will demand when they
arrive . Morrison, of Illinois, is also a candi-
date, but as yet,llas shown no great strength.
