WILTON.
Mr.’Benjamin Wheeler, of North Wilton,
was found lying dead across the threshold of
his house on the morning of the 12th. It is
supposed he died in a fit.
The Rev. Mr. Palmer, of Bridgewater,
gave a- reading under the auspices of Wilton

The funeral of Miss JOSEphinc Sturges,
daughter of Legrand Sturges Esq, was

WEST STRATFORD.
There seems to be a scarcity of items this.
week ; everything quiet as a grave yard,
scarcely a perceptible rise on the surface.
The weather still continues mild and re.-
minds one of early spring rather than of mid-
winter.
Not long since we met an acquaintance
who wore a sad and dejected look. We be-
gan to condolc with him and asked him what
great sorrow was preying upon his mind, if
he had lost some dear friend, or was about
to get married, etc, etc. “No," said he
(while he drew a dc cp sigh,) “I ma stove
dealer you know and have a large supply on
hand.” . '
During the past week the Bridgeport Gas
Company have extended their pipes to the
works of the Silver Plating Company in this
place,and some of our town's people are elat-

Your Bridgeport correspondent last week,
mentioned the fact that a lady of this place
who had lately, died, had by the terms of her
will had bequeathed kind for 8 Fairfield
County Hospital, and had also left afund
in trust for the furtherance of the plan.
The land referred to is situated on, Old Mill
Hill in this place, and a finer locality could
not have been selected, as one has a fine
view of Bridgeport, Long Island Sound, and
Long Island itself, from the poposed site.
It is hoped that the god work will be further
continued. As usual Barnum. the prince

A peculiar disease has broken out among
the horses belbnging to the Bridgeport Horse
, Railroad Company, which has thus far-baf-
fled the skill of .the most. experienced veteri-
nary surgeons. It seems to be a sort of
spinal disease, which finally results in paral-
asis of the limbs and causes-death. Thus
far three have died andtwo more are afflicted
with the disease. _
We wish to correct a little error in a com-
munication of ours which appeared in the
Sentinel a short time ago. In it we stated
that a certain gentleman of Rowayton, had
been‘school committee. We were mistaken,
he had been school treasurer, and according
to his reply, he could have audited his cum"
accounts. If he likes that phase of the ques-
tion any better we plainly make the correc-
tion. - .

Since Jan. 1st", 1879, Westport has lost by
death eight persons aged eighty years and’
upwards. Their names are, Ebenezer Jen—
nings, Polly Bennett, Daniel Burr,‘ Mary

Morris Ketchum, “and Charles Wakeman..
The total number of deaths in town for the

two per cent, and there have been twenty-six

According to'the agreement made between
the commissioners appomted on the boundar-
ies between New York State and Connecti-
cm, the. dividing line on the South is the
middle of the Sound. Up to that line New
York can protect its men in their right to
catch all the black fish (using our ranges)
and oysters they please, but they have no
warrant in getting War the line as they have
been doing for years. and carrying off our

might save us a good many oysters, and

in about equal proportions. We can stand
it, however, as long as they can.

The mystery connected with night watch—-
man Arthur Rutter’s falling into the river
early Friday morning, is as great as ever,
but his rescue from peril by Mr. B. A. Wil—
liams, and his consciousness restored by the
‘application’ of specifies at the hands of Mr.
Charles LaCroix are plain facts. The vil—
lage public, over whose property and welfare
Rutter is supposed to keep an eye, have
heard of the occurrence, and naturally being
liberal minded, ask how it is possible for a
man who never indulges in strong drink, and
who maintains a level' head, to tumble over
the railing of a bridge like ours P.
The 800 feet of.hosc for Compo and Vigi-.
lant engine companies, 600 to thefirst, and
200 to the second, having been received,
the town. through its purchasing committee
of two thinks it has got its money's worth.
Everybody is not satisfied though, for many
think ‘ Compo" will stand on its extra coil
claiming a large among; of property to pro-
tect on its side of the iver, which the grand
list will not shew. The lawyer and farmer
whose conversation about the town’s need
'of hose 'was printed in this column, met
again the other day,on the village bridge and.
talked the hose matter over.
Lawyer.—'-Did you mean anything when
we last met by saying: “I would like to
buy you at your actual value, and sell you
at what you think you are wort ” .
Formica—No! I only did that as a joke to
get even ‘with you.
Lawyers—4 suppose you have seen the new
hose, and will agree that now the village is
likely to be better protected against fire than
before,
Farmer.—'Nol but I learn that Danbury
bought similar hose, and at the first fire' it
burst. ,
Lawyer.-—Why do you speak disparaging -
1y before ourhose has.been, tested. . .
Farm.-—Bccause Danbury’s opinion is
never given without reasons. _
Lawyer.—I’m sure you must admit that
the water carried throuh 600 feet iwill do
more good than [through 100 feet. , ,
‘ Fawn—By chance it may, but what if
my house should take fire. The nearest
water. outside m well is 2000 feet, Compo
or any other engine would make a poor show
in saving my property through 500 feet of
hose. As for my. well, which is inside my
house, an engine would suck it dry in five
minutes; ’
Lumen—There is philosopy in your rea—
soning, but are you not willing' to concede
something in behalf of the village. '
Faryer.-Yes ! but in this hose matter as
in many others, you have acted hastily.
, Lawyer.—In what way could we have done .
better for the town. ,,
Harman—By advertising for proposals.
As it is, you ., have given the contract to the
first applicant, not waiting to see how much
cheaper and better you could have done else-
where. ,
Latoya—Have you. no confidence in the
judgment 0‘5 “Ch 200d men as McssrsLDowns,
Hurlbutt and Bradley. _
, ForW.—-chl but what do they know
about the virtues of hose. I am told that in
New York, Boston, a _nd other great places
rubber hose is 'almost entirely ignored, and
good leather used instead. -
Lawyer.——Frcqfien.t large fires and plenty
of money to buy :with explain {heir posi—
tions but for us with'only now and then a
fire, second or third rate goods will do.
Format—That remark reminds me of
what a neighbor of mine once did about a
piano. He bought a banged out, second hand
thing for his daughter as a beginner intend-
ing to get a new” one when she had become
a player. To his surprise when he took off
the old and put her on the new she was
entirely at .sea, and worked years to acquire
the now touch. He was ever after sorry he
did'nt by a new piano at first.
‘ Latoya—Do you want me to undchtand
by illustration that pianos like some hose ,arc
likely, under too much pressure to burst?
Farrow—No! but I’favor getting the best
article to be had in market.
Lemma—If you lived in the village you
would think as I do. You’d better move in.
Format—No, thanks. ' I‘m near enough
to corruption, now.
Lawyer.——You prate about economy, but
did you- not favor buying a steamer, .and
much hose at an expense of $5,000 if needed.
Farmer.——I did, and I think it would paY
better in the end than the penny wise and
pound foolish policy, now pursued.
Maiden—Can the town afford it ?
Harmon—Why not? The interest on $5,-
000 at 6 per cent. is only $300 per year, and
you have just laid out $450, which added to
expense of wear and tear on “Compo” and
Vigilant, and incidentals will swell the bill
for somebody to pay to six or seven hundred
dollars. To run a steamer would not cost
that sum.
Lumen—Do 0th or farmers agree with
you ?
Farmer.-—Yes; and if they should get
together and pack a to n meeting with thiSJ
olfiect in view, the air .of you villagers
would stand on end. We hold the balance
of power in Westport. '

gratify the follies of those who think they
are wise, but with Capt. Corcoran in Pinn—

' BRIDGEPORT.
At the county jail, located in this town,
religious services are held with the prisoners
every Sunday noon. As a certain good
deacon was recently on his way to one of
these services, and was commenting upon
Hhe excellence of the spirit usually manifest
in them, ‘he remarked, that he wished all the
Members of his church could be there to
attend them! He seemed to forget for the
moment that perfect justice is seldom done
in this world;
The various collections 'for the Hospital
'fund taken here on Saturdayand , Sunday
Jan. 10th and 11th, amounted to a little less

county is still to be heard from.
Gen. Franz Siege], whose name has in it
a suggestion of dashing heroism for all those
familiar with the circumstances of the late
. misunderstanding, visited Bridgeport last
week, and on Monday evening. addressed our
German citizens. The General, who is now
fifty-six years old, is in somewhat feeble
health. He is said, however, to have spoken
with excellent effect. On Tuesday he visited
various points of interest in the city; among
them the Union Metallic Cartridge factory,
where they provide the munitions of war,
and where the General thought perhaps he
might “smell powder,” and the Bridgeport
Standard ofiice, that issues shot and shell of
another scrt, but which sometimes are quite
as" effective. Much attention was paid him
by prominent Germans and (others of our
citizens. He bore his honors with modest
dignity. , . '
It is now stated that the old Steamboat
Company will ask the inspectors to in‘vesti-
gate' the threatened collision on Friday even-
ing, Jan. 9th, and that they will probably
give their attention to it in a few days. It
would no doubt be decidedly better to em«
ploy the aforesaid Inspectors for a little,
than the coroner and his jury. Some of our
people are 'greatly opposed to having their
“remains'fibrought up from the depths and
“sot upon" by these last mentioned ofi‘lcials-
Their cgnclusions are so apt to be unsatisfac-
.tory, especially to than: most immediately
concerned. Meanwhile the Arrowsmith and
the Rosedale are skipping along in the ordi-
nary fashion, seldom using'all theirsteam, of
course, but carefully reporting the number
of inches that each has gained over the other
in a given time. It is very pleasant now to
.make the trip upon either of them; something
like attending a “regatta." ‘
The Board of Education have adopted
plans for a new school building, which‘ is
imperatively demanded for the accommoda—
soon to be asked for an appropriation, and it
is hoped that the building can speedily be
erected. Since the school districts of the
town were consolidated and placed under the
management of asinglc Board, great advances
have been made among us in the educational
line. Many of us feel that it would have
been wisdom in our brain, if not money in
into this world until somewhere near the
present time, when so much is done for the
children. The' youth of our cities and larger
towns, will never know anything of the
deficiencies and the discomforts, to say
nothing of the enjoyments associated in the
mind of so many of their parents, with “the
little red school house" at which they gradu—
ated. And, perhaps the fact is something to
be grateful for. But how much more will be
expected of the children of this generation,
who have received so much more than their
predecessors.
A strange malady has appeared among the
horses of the Horse Railroad Company. The
afieeted animal suddenly, and without provo-
cation, loses his strength, appears “kind 0’
gin out” as the boy said of his sick calf, lies
down .and in a few days dies. The oldest
veterinarysurgeon in this region never saw
anything like it. A post-mortem examina-
tion has failed to throw much light on the
nature of the disease. It is to be hoped that
the days of 'the cpizootic are not to return
with their 2:40 or teams. The stables ret-
fcrred to, are kept with the greatest care.
It is stated that the Wheeler and Wilson
Company have orders ahead fqr'tcn thousand
sewing machines. It would seem that ,by
this time every family on earth must be sup—
plied with one of' these swift sewers of one
variety or another. The prospect, however,
is still good for the machinists. .
. Many of the churches in the city have
continued their special meetings since the
week of prayer; in some~cases with marked
interest. The Faith Missio’n on Water steet,
has gathered in of late a large number of
drinking men, many of whom have apparent-
l'y been converted ‘ . G.

Clark did buy—a gold brick - worth $14,000,
for $10,000 in cash. Mr. Clark left for

A Fragrant Breath and Pearly
‘ Teeth
Are easily obtained by cleansing your teeth
daily with that justly popular dcntrificc,
SOZODON’T. Composed of rare antiseptic
herbs,-it imparts whiteness to the teeth, a
delicious aroma to the breath. and preserves
intact, from youth and old age, the teeth.
Acidity of the stomach will destroy the
strongest teeth unless its effects are counter-
acted with SOZODONT, and this pure tooth
wash protects the dental surfaces by remov-
ing every impurity that adheres to them.
Ask your druggist-for SOZODONT. 4t1

Mrs. Schooumalrer, of Creel: 'Locks, .Ulstcr
_Co., N. Y., had the misfortune to, entirely
lose the sight of one of her eyes, through an
accident, and endured painful inflammatory
action therein for two long years :—the other
eye finally Becoming sympathetically affected,
her general health seriously suffering; indeed,
she was a mere wreck, a walking skeleton.
In this terrible strait, she consulted Dr. David
Kennedy, of Rondout, New York, who told
her at once that the injured oyc must be re-
moved. Sho quietly but firmly said: “All
right, Doctor, but don’t give me chloroform.
Let my husband sit by my side during the
operation, and I will neither cry out or stir."
The work was done, and the poor woman
kept 1101‘ word. Talk of soldicrly courage!
This showed greater pluck than it takes to
face a hundred guns. To restore her general
health Dr. Kennedy then gave the “Favorite
Remedy,” which cleansed the blood, regulated
the Kidneys, Liver and Bowels, and thus im-
parted new life to tho long-sufl’ering woman.
She rapidly gained health and strength, and.
is now well. The “Favorite Remedy” isa
priceless blessing to woman. No family
should be without it. Youudruggist has it.
