Mrs. Peter Fletcher, who died Sunday,
July 8th, aged 50 years, is the first person

circumstance in~ connection with this death
was the attempt of Henry, aged 14 years, son
of deceased, who was so affected in mind by
the loss of his mother, to commit suicide by
taking arsenic. Fortunately forhim the dose
was too powerful for his stomach, and by an-
tidotes promptly administered his life was

There was a time in the local history of
Westport when Capt. Joe. N ash’s sail boat
“Spy,” Edwin \Vlrceler's sloop “Creole,” Ur:-
cle Uriah Taylor’s schooner “ angle,” and
Uncle Dennis Nash's schooner “Fly,” Were
almost weekly, in summer time, called on to
carry parties for pleasure to Goose and Cau-
kccn’s Islands. It can be said that then there
was pleasure in the strict sense of the word.
To be one of a party on either of those boats
gave a satisfaction which could not be ap-
proached by expensive tours iii other direc-
tions. All these boats, and each of the own-
ncrs save one have long since passed away,
and with them, seemingly, all desire to sail
and pic-nic as in the years gone by. At. this
moment there is not one heat for carrying
parties worthy the name, in the Saugatuck
river, and the question may be asked, why is
this so.

out it had forty years ago, will gaze upon it
no more except through the eyes of memory.
All is changed, and even the members of the
committee, save one, are new men with no
associations to foster, and no memories of this
good old school house to cherish. PAI'L.

Tact.
Love swings on little hinges. It keeps an
active little servant to do a good deal of fine
work. The name of the little servant is tact.
Tact is grumble-footed and quick-fingered;
tact sccs without looking; tact has always a
good deal of small change on hand ; tact car-
ries no heavy weapons, but can do wonders
with a sling and stone ; tact never runs his
head against a stone wall; tact always spies
a sycamore tree up which to climb when
things are becoming crowded and unmanage-
able on the level ground ; fact has a cunning
way of availing itself of a word, or a. smile,
r a gracious wave of the hand; tact carries
a bunch of curious-fashioned keys which can
turn all sorts of locks; tact plants its mono-
syllables wisely, for being a monosyllablc it-
self, it arranges its own order with all the
familiarity of friendship; tact—sly, versatile,
diving, running, flying taetflgoverns the
great. world, yet touches the big baby
under the imprchiori that it has not been
toucircd at all. '

John II. Keyscr’s Wealth Gone.
Troubles and misfortunes have followed
Jolnill. Kcyser, ,tlie Ring plumber, ever
since the Ring disclcsares in the Fall of 1871,
culminating in his voluntary bankruptcy.
Six years ago Kcyscr had a handsome for-
tniieand a thriving business. To-day his
sworn statement shows assets nothing, and
liabilities nearly $200,000. ~ «
A very few persons have had knowledge of
his many lzsses. A series of misfortunes
have been steadily pushing him on toward
bankruptcy since 1874.. 111 September 1871,
Iic obtained a loan upon his house on Second
avenue, of $10,000 from the West Side
Savings Bank, and subsequently another loan.
It also appears from the records that from
year to year mortgages were placed upon all
his real estate. These mortgages have re—
suited iii foreclosures and the sacrifice of his
property. Following immediately upon the
Ring troubles came the Chicago fire, in which
the stock in his branch house on Lake street,
Chicago, which was valued at $65,000, was
destroyed, with an almost entire loss of insur—
ance. Another branch house in St. Louis
failed and involved him in heavy losses. In
1875, the extensive foundry and works be-
longingtohim at Grecnpoint, L. I., which
\\'_’cre insured, were burned, with a loss of
$90,000 in buildings, machinery, and stock.
These-mishaps, with the general depression
of busmess and depreciation in values of real
estate, have overwhelmed him financially,
and brought him to the bankruptcy proceed-
ings by which he hopes to get relieved from
- his embarrassments
Much of Mr. Kcyscr‘s indebtedness con-
sists of deficiencies in the foreclosure of
mortgag<s on his real estate. Property which
cost him nearlya quarter of a million has
been sold within the past year ata great
sacrifice on account of his inability to pay
the interest on the liens. In suits recently
brought against the bank, Mr. Keyser testi-
fied that the property coat, him $86,000.
This was the Sirangers’ Hospital, at Avenue
D. and 10th street, which was carried on for
several years as a free hospital, at a cost to
its founder of $25,000 yearly. Another
foreclosure was on mortgages to the United
States Life Insurance Company and Ella
Shook, on the property known as the
“Strangers’ Rest,” at No. 508 Pearl street,
which cost Mr. Kcyser $26,000, and was sold
under the hammer for $10,200, leaving a de—
ficiency of $6,500, besides the loss of the fee.
The Strangers’ Rest was a practical charity,
and its reports for eight years show an
average of 1,000 homeless persons annually
who received its benefits without charge.
The schedule of debts appears as follows:
William J. Keyser, $4 77,207 52
James II. Ingcrsoll, 21,972 00
Keyser Stove Works, 15,000 00
William Huston, 12,225 00
Dry Dock Savings Bank, 12,000 00
Eliza A. D. Tweed and Richard
Tweed, wife and son of Wil-
liam M. Tweed, 6,500 00
John Reagan, 5,078 00
Ella Shook, 4,626 00
W illiam Frazier, 4,500 00
J ames Gregory, 3,500 00
Van Brunt Estate, 3,500 00
Thomas M. Hooker, 3,245 00
Frederick Michel, 2,500 00
Miscellaneous, 8,198 00
Total $180,051 52
To these must be added interest and costs,
and a few claims the amounts of which are
unknown. These additions will swell the
total to $200,000.
William J. Keyscr, who is the largest
creditor, is a brother of the petitioner, and
has made many advances of cash during the
past six years to relieve his relative. The
indebtedness to Mrs. Tweed and her son
Richard is a deficiency on leasehold property
at No. 100 East Ninth street, adjoining Mr.
Keyser’s store. Keyser Was compelled by
Tweed, in Ring times, to lease the property
at exhorbitant figures for a term of ten years,
and at the expiration of the term was in debt
$6,500. The claim of the Van Brunt estate
is also for a deficiency on leasehold property.
The Keyser Stove Works, of which Mr.
Keyscr is now a salaried officer, are carried
on by a. manufacturing company, and are not
effected by the bankruptcy proceedings.
Mr. Keyser is about fifty-six years of age,
and has been in the business for thirty years.
A conversation with some of his creditors
indicates a kindly feeling towards him, with
no desire to oppose his petition. 110 has
been connected with many charitable move-
ments in this city, and was well known, in
former_ years, as aman fond of extending a
generous hospitality and liberal in his bene-
factions to the poor. He'supported two or
three benevolent institutions out of his own
private funds at an annual expense of many
thousand dollars. It is asserted by those
familiar with his habits, and his many chari-
table, acts, that the‘ large amounts received by
him in the prosperous days of the Ring were
freely spent, and did not remain in his pos-
session for any considerable length of time.

Why don’t: the people sprinkle the streets.
There’s lots of water in the reservoirs, and
it isn‘t good for much else but to keep down
the dust. Speaking of the condition of the
water brings to our mind the fact that there
is a great deal of grumbling about it. 1V6
would be sorry to deprive people of the
pleasure of grumbling, but as we like pure
rater, we can't help wishing they might find
a subject that would not be annoying to us.
Some fellows, who don’t understand the
science of the thing, want to know why in
the name of common s'cnsc the pipes are not
occasionally blown out. We hear every few
days that the water is drawn out of the reser-
voirs, but that don’t improve that which is in
the pipes. Let’s have one grand blow out
from this end of the water works, and see if
the stuff won’t taste better after it. We’ve
got to have better water, or we’ll take to
-lager.——So. Noricallc Sentinel. ‘

The President seems to understand the sit-
uation pretty well. He said to a correspon-
dent of the Cincinnati Commercial: “ There
are men who are making a great fuss about
the Southern policy, when they don’t care
two cents what the Southern policy is, so
they get some oflices'to distribute. A Con:
gressman, for instance, will promise a lot of
local offices in his district in repayment for
setting up :1 Convention and giving him a re-
nomination. Under this vicious system we
are likely to have indifferent. Congressmen
and bad Civil Service. » The system works an
evil both ways. Because I want to try to do
somethi‘ng toward reformation in this partic-
ular, to divorce local politics from Federal
office-holding, there is-an out cry against the
Southern policy from men who are really
ashamed to give the true grounds of opposi-
tion to my Administration,for I am trying to
carry out the Civil Service Reforms that we
as Republicans have beenpromising so long.
The Southern policy is afixed fact, and every
day demonstrates that it was the wisest
course, all things considered, that could have
been taken. But it is really amusing to find
this assailed-by those who don’t: really care
anything about it, using it simply as a cloak
to cover up their disgust for Civil Service
Reform.” '

It is the right of every American citizen to
exert all legitimate influence on the politics

publican platform of 1876, approved hearti—
ly the action of the President.

The Temperance movement in Middle-
town, N.Y., has been a most remarkable one.

joined, with quite as‘much quickness, “Well,
we read of - only one such a 'mau, and from
the fuss that’s made about him it’s plain they
are scarce.” - - .
'As early as 1805 Bates College opened its
doors to women. At the head of the class
which was graduated last Wednesday stood
Jane Rich North, the daughter of a physi-
cian living in Bristol. She entered the class
at the age of seventeen, and carried off the
valedictory in spite of the exertions of a large
number of classmates who were unwilling to
be outstripped by “the little girl of ’77.” She
intends to teach school for a- few years, but is
very anxious to study medicine. 1
