WEST NORWALK.
Notwithstanding the weather prophets we
continue to have unusually mild weather for
this season; no ice has been stored in this
vicinity as yet.
The prospect now is, that there are to be
a few changes with us the coming Spring.
Mr. and Mrs. Fuller arcto leave us, and Mrs.
Fleet has taken a house in Spring street,
South Norwalk, which she is soon _to open
as a boarding house. Miss Ella Street is in
New York studying book keeping.
The weather was so stormy that there
were but few who attended the very inter-
esting' cottage service held by Rev. C. M.
Selleck at the house of Mr. Charles C. Street,
Thursday evening the 26th.
There was a party at the house of Wm.
- Mather, on Friday evening last, the city of
South N orwalk being well represented.
Two men have each had a hand injured
in the machinery at Millards’ factory, since
its establishment here.
Mr. Millard’s business continuing to in-
crease, he has purchased a mill site near the
residence of Roswell Reed, Esq, and will
soon enlarge the pond and‘erect a large fac-
tory, for the preparation of furs. ‘
Messrs. Bates is 00., have lrascd a mill of
~ John “feed, and have commenced the manu-
facturinglof “wire sieves”, on a large scale,
—-so we' progress.
A large delegation from the Reform As-
sociation of South Norwalk, called upon us
on Sunday afternoon, and held a meeting in
the Chapel. Interesting and earnest adresscs
were made by the members.
NEW CANAAN.
Chas. Coinstoek’sbofir‘smen have 'compro—
raised with the town and will pay fifty cents
on the dollar.
The Messenger says that a man recently
entered the residence of Samuel Scofleld, an
old man living alone, and demanded his
money or his life. Mr. Scoficld gave up
$3.00, and while the thief was prowling over
the house for more, Mr. Seofield gave an
alarm and the thief_fied before the neighbors
. arrived.
DARIEN.
The New England Supper, at the Town
Hall, last Tuesday evening, was a great suc-
cess. The young people of the Helping
Hand Society deserve great. credit for furn-
ishing such a pleasant entertainment. They
usually do well but on this occasion they
quite outdid'themselves. The proceeds net-
ted ,in round numbers forty-three dollars.
The 'only thing that detracted from the
cnjoyableness of the evening was the boister-
ousness of some of the boys. 'They ought
to be taught at home, or in Sunday school,
how to conduct themselves when in compa-
ny. On the part of some of the larger boys
or young men there were freaks of rudeness
and much food was wasted at the tables,while
pieces of cake were thrown around the room.
There may be fun in such conduct but it
is certainly of a low order. Gentlemen
never descend to such forms of pleasure.
Next Sunday will be communion at the
Congregational church. Preparatory service
will be held on Saturday at 2:} p. in. Before
the sacrament is adminsitered on Sunday
morning, ten or fifteen will be received into
the fellowship of the church‘on the profes- _
sion of their faith, a number of whom are
to be baptised.
Captain Brady has decidedly improved the
front of his building, part of which is used
for a store. His large, fine house is now
being repainted, which it is hoped may be
the home of some good family soon. The
location is fine and the house commodious
and roomy. It is supplied with all modern
improvements. .
Mr. James Burchard has in part moved his
furniture to the building opposite the store
of M. S. & J. C. Mather. As a show room
this will be a decided success. May he do
a large and paying business. Such an estab-
lishment is essential in Darien.
Mr. A. T. Waterbury has recently p'urchas-
ed the "Brush Place,” near Noroton Depot.
and intends making it his permanent resi—
deuce. _ '
Rev. Mr. Smith, of Norwalk, preached
again in the M. E. Church on Wednesday
evening.
Mrs. Henry Tristram who has been sick
for some. time, is thought to be in a‘ very

day morning by Rev. Mr. Haulenbeck, of
Norwalk, and in the evening by Rev. Mr.
Oliver, 9. young man but recently from Ire-
land.
The funeral of Miss Emma Burtis will be
attended at the Flat Ridge Chapel on Tues—
day (today), at 2 p. m. ’
WILTON.
The young ladies of the Mission Band
cleared about $70 as the result of their fair.
The “apple woman” was somewhat of a de—
parture from the orthodox fair, but never-
theless it was well carried out, and quite a
hit. . .
S.,E. Ogden,Esq.,has returned from a three
week’s business trip to Georgia,
Thomas M. Raymond, Esq, has been vis-
itiug friends on the “southern shore” of
Maryland. . , .
At the mid-week services at St. Matthew’s
during Lent the rector is preaching a series
of sermons on the Bible. '
J. M. Haines, Esq, lost- a;valuablc horse
last week. . ‘
Mr. Eli Kimbley, an agent of the Con-
necticut Bible Society, is now engaged in
making a canvas of Wilton in order to sell
Bibles to those wishing them; to give tli'em
to the needy; and to gather religious statis-
tics whenever feasible. Mr. Kimberlyearue
well recommended, and as his work is un—
denoniinaiional it is hoped he will receive
substantial aid and encouragemeut’from our
citizens. Mr. K. has established depdSitaries
at the Post Office and Mr. T. L.'Rockwell’s.

they have been crowded out of mind by
events still more thrilling, and so as a cor-
respondent we prove a failure. Let “W,”
with his facile pen come to our aid. We
shall appreciate his services. , And then it’s
all in the family. West Stratford beleags to
Bridgeport. This town will very soon, we
expect, put her motherly arm about the
thriving little Borough and claim it as her
own. At least_we hope- so, for there are
good people over the Lake, and they deserve
the best cf treatment from their neighbors.
And what could be done for them that would
so prove our esteeni as our adopting them
en masses and giving them the freedom of the
city ?
“W" alluded last week to a case that has
excited deep intbrest among us. We refer
‘to the apparent conversion of a sick man
from Romanism .to Protestantism, and the
results folllowing therefrom. We personal-
ly made the gentleman’s acquaintance and
were struck with the evidences of his sincer-
ity. But on Tuesday last the Standard
contained a note from him, or at least signed
by his name, in which he asserts that he has
always been a Catholic, is now,and ever shall
be. That is all well enough of course, if
such is his preference. We judge that it
makes very little difference what- a man’s
denominational connection is provided he be
right at heart. But a mystery attends this
case, for after declaring himself the victim
of Catholic persecution and thereby securing
the sympathy and abundant material aid of
those among us who believe in religious
liberty, Mr. Fitzgerald, now coolly and per—
sistently denies all that he previously stated
and claims to have been a good and accepted
Catholic from the first. and the tearssbed
over those abstracted pillows, and the multi‘
tude of words in which Bridgeport has set
forth its opinion of “bigotry” and “persecu —
tion,” seem to have been uncalled for. Their
sweetness was wasted. Well, one thing is
sure. The man and his family were deplora-
ably destitute. Their home was desolation
itself. That is changed now. Protestant
generosity has transformed the surroundings
of the dying. He will henceforth lack noth.
ing. And that in itself is something to rejoice
over, through whatever means it has been
secured. It is amazing the interest that this
little incident has aroused. People have
even arisen from their bed at night, on hear—y
ing that there Was need of help, and have
prepared and sent provisions to those declar-
ed to be suffering because of their faith.
The existence of a mighty undercurrent of
devotion to religious liberty has been proved.
It was not that these people were Protestants
but that they were persecuted, that awaken-
ed such deep and general emotion. The fact
is most significant. Let any body of so-
called Christians but once begin in this land
to suggest the thumb-screw and the dun—
gEon with a view to compel the faith of the
weakest individual, and such a storm 'will
rise about its ears as will smite it prostrate.
The spirit of civil and religious freedom may
seem almost to have become extinct. But
it only sleeps; it is not dead. And even its
slumbers is not profound. The legacy of
the ' grim Fathers is still most dear to
mil _ 3 upon this western continent.
“They left unstained what here they found,
Freedom to Worship God."
After considerable discussion the town has
voted to build a school house for pupils of
the higher grades, on Congress street ; the
street that crosses Center bridge and passes
westward over the hill toward St. Augustine
Church. The building will be placed upon
the eminence overlooking the city and the
Sound. The situation is nightly and in most
respects attractive. It is to be hoped that
the edifice will be architecturally ornamental
as it will be conspicuous afar. The fact that
Bridgeport educates her children will be
impressed upon the stranger that approaches
by sea Or by land. ‘
On Friday evening last Prof. W. S. Wood
of New York, gave select readingf in the
lecture room of the Park street church. He
is a remarkably fine elocutionist. The hu-
morous and the pathetic are alike his “native"
element. Probably it wouldbe impossible to
tell whether he began his earthly career with
a smile or a tear. He gathers human heart-
strings into his hand and plays upon them as
he will. The Wheeler 85 Wilson orchestra
discoursed sweet music as a kind of prelude,
interlude and afterlude to the readings.
By the way, we heard an orchestra of blue
birds the-other morning. Their harmony
was perfect. The wonder is how they have
kept in practice since last Fall. Let a
lady cease to sing for a fortnight and she’s
"out of practice," and the eloquence of a
Demosthenes couldn't induce her to at-
tempt a single note. The blue birds seem to
manage those things more wisely. But we
are not a musician and will not venture to
state just how they do it. Gnnoxn.

Ex-Lieut. Gov. E. H. Hyde, of Stafford,

undiseased animal was introduced into the
herd, and since then has been taken with the
disorder in acute form. It was back in April
that the last death occurred in the herd. The
animals since then have been in quarantine,
the Cattle Commission resolutely insisting on
this course. The wisdom of it has now be—
come apparent, for bad the herd been allowed
to run at large, or come into contact with
other cattle the disease would certainly have
been communicated, and spread rapidly
tslzrctlugh the southwestern portions of the
a e.

The action of the directors of the Con-
solidated road in reducing the rate of pas—

alike to the liberality and wisdom of the

ladium. ~~ '
We don’t look at this forced reduction
down this way, as being in any way credita—
ble. To have received credit for liberality
the reduction should have been a voluntary
one, instead of a forced one, and ought to
have been made long ago. Again, the road
has advanced thekfare from Norwalk to New
York over 50 per cent , that is from 75
cents to $1.15, and now on compulsion makes
abeggarly 10 per cent. reduction, but even
that’was, we hear, strongly opposed at .the

’ The murder case. _
The trial of Bucholz was resumed last,
Tuesday afternoon. Many ladies werein the, ;
audience, manifesting much interest. _“Sam-'
my" Waring continued his testimony, “991,
was followed by John Dingeegheirtestimony
being a repetition of that given in the for—
mer trial. , ,,
On Wednesday morning, Dillazon Allen
testified, and also Samuel Ireland, Thomas
Ireland, Edwin Hoyt, Gustave Hedatrom and.
F. A. Tolles, but no new facts were elicited;
'A pair of apparently new. overalls found near?
the body were shovm to the jury by Dist.
Attorney Olmstead, with the request to ex—
amine the cost mark, and the'folds in. them.
Wednesday afternoon George H. Arnold
testified to finding the axe at the Waring
house, the handle two-thirds covered with
blood, also some on blade, but he noticed no
feathers. Orlando Bartram testified that he
went to Boston at the request of the States
Attorney, leaving here on‘ the 10th ‘of' the
present month, taking with him two pair of;
pantaloons, axe and handle, and rugs. He
delivered them to Dr. J. B. Treadwcll at 338
Tremont street. He left them there a few
' hours and then returned with them. They
have since been in his custody.
George C. Stillson, foreman of the core-
ner’s jury, repeated his former testimony.
~ Mary Downey testified that she knew Bu—
cholz and Schulte, also the Waring family.
‘She was there on the-13th and 20th of Octo-
her previous to the murder. She saw Bu-
cholz give to Mrs. Waring $100 in green—
baeks. She saw him take the amount from
a large roll of bills. He wanted them:to
keep it for himas he was going away that
night. The witness said he had a large roll
of bills left. She should say as large as his
fist. ~
Cross-‘examiued——She said he gave the
money to Mfs. Waring openly and made no
effort to conceal it. ‘
. Charles Bosch testified that he was a gun-
smith at South Norwalk. He had experi—
mented with the cartridges found in Schula
te’s trunk and found that. they fitted the
revolver found in the woods.
, C s. M. Lane testified concerning the
rem val of the body to the house, etc.
On Thursday morning an entirely new
witness was produced .by the State—Dr. J.
Treadwell. of Boston, an expert who testified
in the late Hayden trial. Dr. Treadwell
began by saying that he had been a close
student of blood stains for six years. He
was shown the axe offered in evidence and
testified to its being brought to him for ex-
amination. The defense objected to evidence
of blood on the axe, onthe ground that it
had lain in a barn nine. months after the mur-
der, giving opportunity for a. designing per-
son to manufacture evidence against the ac-
eused. The objection was overruled. The
witness on the, 11th of thepresent month re—
moved portious of material on the axe, and
made several ,tests of, particles from the
blade. :Heffolind both'chicken and human
blood corpuéelea‘. In portions from the head
of the axe, he‘ found nothing but human
blood. Theectiomofrust on the spots de-
monstrated the fact that the human blood
on the axe was more recent than the chicken
blood. The'witness’removed eighteen par-
ticles from apair of pants. On sixteen of
them he found human blood. The spots had
an upward tendencsand were imbedded in
the texture, proving the blood to have been
fresh, not clotted, when it came in contact
with the garment. The witness said the
spots were more numerous on the left leg of
the pants. He found five on the right leg.
The spots could not have been made while
carrying the body as described. The wig—
ness examined ten particles from five spots
on a portion of a shirt. By three tests he
found human blood and no other kind.
State Attorney Olmstead put a number of
hypothetical questions to witness, describing
a wound similar to that upon Schulte’s head
and inquiring whether such a Wound might ,
have been made to a man lying down from
the effects of another wound by an axe. The
witness replied in the affirmative. The wit-
ness was severely cross-examined by General
Smith, to such an extent that the expert got
out of patience, and when asked to compute
the number of eorpuseles in a drop of blood
one-eighth of an inchin diameter, refused
point blank to do it. He said the authori-
ties differed as to the size of the corpuseles.
General Smith asked whether scientific ex-,
perts did not make frequent mistakes in their
examinations of corpuseles; whether he, did
not know of a case in particular where an
expert had mistaken the vegetable growth
upon a stone for blood corpuscles ? Dr.
Treadwell got rid of answering by claiming
that he did not know of his own knowledge.
Dr. Sanford, of New Haven, testified as
to his knowledge of blood eorpuscles. He
knew that it was sometimes a difficult matter
to distinguish between human blood and dog
blood corpuscles, but there was no diflculty
with chicken blood. A competent micro:
scopist would know when he had restored
dried blood to its original shape it not to its
original size. ' _ ‘-
Mistakcs are sometimes made by microscop-
ists, but there was no reason for a mistake to
be made in trying to decide whether the
stains on Bucholz’s trousers were of blood or
of algze; from his cursory examination the
witness assumed that they were blood stains.
Dr. Sanford also thought it possible that such
a wound as that back of Schultc’s ear might
have been made with an axe like the one in
court. .
Dr. M. B. Par'dee, of South Norwalk,testi-
dad that he was at the body when the coro—
ner’s jury arrived where it lay on the night
He was with it all the while
and did not see any one touch it. When the
body was carried to the house, it was not
bleeding, to his knowledge, neither did the
blood trickle from it. Witness described the
wounds on thelhead and stated that,although
he had at first thought they could not have
been made by the axe in court, he now
thought they could. " ’
Paul Hirscber, of East Norwalk,teslified
that he knew Bucholz well. Bucholz had
often told him that 'Sehulte had lots of
mono . The witness was telling about $600
that ucbolz claimed to have in the bank,
when he was seized with a fainting fit and
was carried out. .
On Friday morning Paul Herscher resum—
ed his testimony, telling about the $200
which he says Bucholz gave him the do;
after the murder to keepfor him, etc. Chas.
LaCroix identified a $50 bill paid to him by
Bucholz the Sunday after the murder. Chas.
W. Smith, one of the administrators of the
Schulte estate identified two $50 bills, and
W. A. Curtis identified one of the bills.
Horace L. Hubbell testified to receiving ‘a
$50 bill from C. F. Tolles, but could not
identify it. D. P. Ely identified a $50 bill
which he had. received from : Herscher. W.
A. Benedict identifieda $50 bill paid to him
lliy Bucholz.,and which he- gave ’to C. F.
oles. ' Other witnesses were called to trace
Schulte’s money to Bucholz. '
Dr. Byron W. Manson was next called. He
was shown a piece of bone which he said was
a partof the external’and internal portion of
the skull. He then demonstrated to the jury
the position in the skull that the bone lay.
He was shown another piece of bone and
after describing its location he said he dis-
covered marks a: the bone which in his
judgment were made by a blunt instrpment.
It may have been an axe head, hammer or
lever. The mark was made by an instrument
with an irregular ed e.
Cross—examined— e was unable to desig-
nate the marks on the bone. He saw them
in the morning but did not see them then.-
Thc sensation of the afternoon was caused
by the reappearance on the witness stand of
George Graft, the prisoner, who had so many
conscientious scruples about testifying
against a friend. He had been kept in soli—
tary confinement in the jail since his“ refusal
to testify, not even being allowed to talk
with his counsel. It was expected that his
testimony would be very'damaging to Bar:
cholz, but it was merely. as follows: “I am a
German, born in Venezuela. I became ac-
quainted with Bucholz in jail, about three
and a half months ago. One day I asked
Bucholz if he would like to get out, and if
he would help me out. Bucholz told me
that he could not help me, as his counsel
would not let him talk with anyone. I want—
ed him to help me out on bail, and toldliim I
could get out if I had money. Bucholz of-
fered me his watch‘ to get saws. 'I told him
Leonid get saws if I could get some money.
Bucholz told me he thought he would get
clear on his trial, and did not care to get out
of jail until after that. Bucholz told me he.
could pay my bail, and after I got out I could
comeback and get him out.” -
The court adjourned to 10 a. in. Tuesday,
March 2d.
