\VILTON.
Mrs. Dr. Gardner died on Saturday last,
after a fourteen days‘ struggle with pneu-
monia. The remains will be takenAo Green-
wood for interment.
The Mission Band will meet on Friday
evening next at the house of Mrs. Louise D.
Keeler. ,
The special town meeting on Wednesda ,
was fully attended and an immense flood of
words used for the :1li amount of business
transacted. A committee was appointed to
take counsel abdut the contracts as to their
legality. The same committee was empow—
ered to compromise the matter and also to
aunul the contract. The contractors refuse
to relinquish their contract, and just how
the committee will annul will undoubtedly
furnish an ‘ original plea” for some lawyer.
The meeting ad journcd to the 26th at which
time the committee will report.
ROWAYTON.
The ladies of the Baptist church havc un—
dertaken some much needed repairs on the
interior of their modest church, in repairing
the plastering, kalsomining, painting, carpet-
113:: and covering anew the cushions. As the
suhinier season usually brings some city
folks to our pretty sea shore bathing and
boating place, it is well to be prepared to
attract them. . . ~
The Centennial building on Contentment
Island is rented to Thompson Dean, Esq,
president of the Detroit (Mich) Gas Works.
Mr. Dean is a wealthy western merchant,
formerly a heavy owner in Mississippi steam-
boats. Two of the largest and finest St.
Louis and New Orleans steam packets, the
“Thompson Dean” and the “Alice Dean”
are owned by and named after himself and
wife. A number of work people are put—
ting the Centennial house andgrounds in
order for them.
The 'cottagc near the depot has been rented
hr the season to Mr. Geo. M. Jones for the
gnu-miner. Mr. Jones is a cohimcrcial traveler.‘
The cottage has been undergoing extensive
repairs and additions. It now looks like a
Swiss chalot. Edward and Charles Mills—
paugh, Walter Reed and Gardiner Themes
are the carpenters, Mr. Leason the mason
and Jared Scofield the painters employed.
DARIEN.
Darien has lost her barber, much to her
regret. Fred failing in his payments, the
former proprietor on Saturday dismantled
blie shop of its furniture. The people of
Daricn must now shave themselves or call
Chris at South Norwalk. May Freds place
soon be filled; or better, may he like a good
boy return.
Mr. William Warren, who has been feeble
for ma months, is now very sick. His
ttroublc lS asthma and palpitation of the
heart. ‘
The. country is looking very. beautiful
around Darien at the present time. The
trees and the fields are clad .in their
sweetest and gayest costumes. The driver
are delightful in all directions. Could there
be a refreshing rain the gardens would re-
joice. ‘
Rev. Mr. ,Arrighi spent Sunday in Stam—
ford. In the morning he spoke in the Con-
grcgational church, and in the evening at the
Presbyterian. There can be no doubt but
tho people were interested and generously
responded by bountiful subscriptions to aid
the Free churches in Italy. Their work is
truly christian. ‘
The churches here were well attended
Sunday, and the pastors seemed to feel the
importance of their work. The sermon to
the young at the Congregational church, was
:able, timely and forcibly delivered. All
"listened with undivided attention from the
lbeginning to the end, and went from the
"house apparently impressed and thoughtful.
Such sermons are always timely and never
fail to do good.
The subject for next Sunday evening is:
The Abiding Salutary Influence of a true
Home. May the house he as full as it was
last Sunday evening. There is no place
where the youngr can spend. an hour so
profitably to themselves ofa Sunday. evening.
.Mr. B’s. discourses are all simple and clear
and eminently practical and forcibly de-
livered. - . '
There was a praise meeting Sunday even—
ing before the sermon which was really
inspiring. The choir and organist did them-
selves great credit in rendering the pieces
selected. - The whole audience took part in
the singing. There is to be another praise
meeting next Sunday evening of ahalf an
hour, previous to the sermon to the young.
The Ladies Missionaay Society held an
annual meeting last Wednesday afternoon.
It was throughout the most interesting ever
held on such an occgsion. The church was
full, the speaking was good, and Mrs. Brad—
hm presided with rare dignity and grace.
STAMFORD. .
A barge loaded with coal, for the Stamford
Gas Light Company, was sunk in the Canal
last work Thursday afternoon. .
The new organ for the R. C. Church, it is"
expected will be put up during next week
and first used Sunday, May 23d. .
Thursday afternoon, a spark fro'm a pass-
ing train set fire to the roof of Matt Fagaii’s
house in Dublin. Very 'little damage re—
salted.
All of the Sunday Schools are to unite in a
Rallies Centenary celebration. A parade of

Mr. Orson Daley was at work on Rundle

of iron fell from above him and went through
to the ground floor. In its ppssage it came
so near to Mr. Daley as to clip him on the
back of the hand, shavipg the skin off. If it
had struck him square it would have killed
him.

Fortunately for the good people who had
been encouraged to hope for an abundance
of fruit this year, no frost came with the
' extreme cold following last wee ’s 1163th

never were fuller with bIOSsoms than now;
and that in the narrow escape experienced
"an inch is as good as a mile.”

officers and the transaction of general busi- ‘
ness. Our towns people, all of whom are in-
terested in educational work, have respond—
ed satisfactorily to the invitations to the vis—
iting teachers, who will have reason to de—
cide that Westpoet ranks high socially, and
remembering how well some of her sister
towns have treated her in the past, will seek
to repay with compound interest. .In this
view of thecase she desires it full attendance
of teachers who may come to us during the
two days by rail at reduced rates. Under-
standing the equation of Qiayments, which is
to be discussed during the sessions, we desire
to give out that visitors will have no expenses

Something happening to the new gates
caused Mr. E, H. Nash to let the water out

is sparkling and running over full once more.
. Grass growing in the meadows is obscur—
ing the stakes driven by engineers who were

ground for a Parallel Railroad would be

that grass will keep on growing, and June
get here before that long expected movement
begins, and then it may be, we shall have to
wait till autumn. The prospect of fresh de—
lay after so many years of waiting for “a
consummation devoutly, etc.” forces the

open even if vessels are approaching and-
reedy to pass, was discussed. One Captain
declared his open disapprobation of the or-
der, and said that,should he reach our bridge
and give due notice by blowing the horn of
his desire to have the bridge open and the
draw—tender didn’t comply, .even though a
train was waiting, he would tack ship,
get under swift headvvay, dash into the
bridge and do what he could to demolish,
it. He claimed the law would sustain the
act, and that he could collect damages from
the company. Mr. Allen, the tender, says
the order places him between two fires—He
is bound to obey his superior oficer, and
being friendly with all the captains, he wants
to accommodate each and all of them.

Among all the disagreeable consequences
that follow the decay of the teeth, an impure
breath must be the most morti'fyipg and un-

inexcusable and offensive in society; and yet
the cause of it may easily be removed by
cleansing your teeth daily with that justly
popular dentrifrice, Fragrant SOZODONI‘.
It purifies and sweetens the breath, cools and
refreshes the mouth, and gives a pearl-like
appearance to the teeth. Gentlemen who

That wmry step, languid eye and feeling of

BRIDGEPORT. ‘
Capt. S. C. ‘Kingman, so wcl known in
this |county as inspector of rifle practice for
the Fourth Regiment, has lost two daughters
within five months, both by marriage. The
second was united on Tuesday morning, May
11th, to Frank S. Buckingham of this city.
The twain this made one started off in a
carriage for a bridal tour through Connecti-
cut and Massachusetts. The method of travel
commends itself to all the sensibly inclined.
What could bemorc delightful for a newly-
wedding pair, than a drive through country
roads, paved with alternate sunshine and
shadow, the apple trees flinging their bloom
in the path of the travelers,and the bluebirds
' singing love-songs for their delectation?
That, this romantic bridal tour may be 11
WW 0f the life journey awaiting Mr. and ‘
Mrs. Buckingham, is the fervent desire of
their many friends.
Thursday of last week, was somewhat a
gloomy day in Bridgeport. The shadow of
the gallows was felt throughout our city.
While the general opinion was that the ex—
ecution was just, and on the whole desirable,
‘yet such a tragedy. could not occpr in the
midst of us without exciting deep emotion.
The precise time at which the criminal
would be hurled into etbrnity was not. an-
nounced and sea strain of "uncertainty was
u, , the hearts of all. If the guillotine had
be) lthe instrument~ of justice all Bridge-
port wuuld have listened in painful suspense
for the fall of the knife. While there was
no sympathy for the parricide there was
deep sympathy for the man. And every one
breathed more freely when the information
came that all was over. When we last saw
Edwin Hoyt, something like a year ago, there
was nothing murderous in his appear-
ance. He looked like an ordinary farm
laborer ; a little dull perhaps, but by no
means ugly, or in any way repulsive. It is
said that since that time he had grown thin
and gray. No doubt the year has been to
him one of great mental suffering, although
in manner he has been somewhat indifferent
and atolid. He has amused himself with
writing hi9 auto-biography .which the Stand-
ard published on Friday. Who can“ explain
the attraction that a scene of execution has
for the masses? It is estimated that at least
three thousafid people gathered about the jail
grounds on Thursday. At one time the
pressure war so great thatit was feared that
the wall of the enclosure in which the gal—
lows stood might be broken down. There
is certainly something morbid in human na-
ture when it so eagerly covets the privilege
.of whitening the infliction of the extreme
penalty of the luv. No doubt the moral at-
mosphere of the county and the State is more
salubriour becaure of the exhibition J ustice
bar made of its majesty. We will expect
fewer murderers, to disgrace our civilization.
A new map of the town of Bridgeport is
about to be published under ,the direction of
H. G. Scofield, Erq., city surveyor. It is to
show all property lines, to give the name of
every owner,and the area of every piece of
land. “The water courses, ponds, Woods,
and other interesting details will be found
upon the map, and all of the above mention—
ed details are the product of direct transit
and steeltape surveys." If this map shall
prove to be all that it promises, it will be a
most valuable thing. Among the innumer-
ablcitemr mentionedin the surveyors cir-
cular we are surprised that he does riot agree
to give us the number of persons occupying
every rod of land, together with their pho~
tographsl Nothing else seems to be omit—
ted.
Memorial Day is to be observed in Bridge-
port in about the usual manner. Rev. Mr.
Pogson will this year preachthe sermon be—
fore the Grand Army. Public exercises are
to beheld on Monday, the 31st. The day
claims the attention of every patriot.No man
who loves his country can be willing to for-
get those who gave their life for the mainte-
nance of national integrity.
The great question in Bridgeport, overtop-
ping in importance even the inquiries that
have arisen regarding the execution, respects
the comparative excellence of Barnum's cir-
cus and the ”London” ditto. Our people
took the matter so deeply to heart that:
good share'of them felt compelled to seek a
decision of the matter through personal ob-
servation. This course seemed to produce
only a bitter partisanship and the questidn is
as yet undecided. One thing is sure, how-
ever, Barnum’r was honored by a somewhat
larger attendance than the other. He took
$7,000 away from Bridgeport and the other
man but $6,000! Many of those who joy-
ously help to round out this snug little sum
of $13,000, are among the class that com-'
plain of the great expense attendant upon
our churches and schools! Well, it 1'8
something worth money to see a woman shot
out of a gun! And a baby elephant afio rda
an edifying spectacle! While the clowns are
so funny i Norwalk has this year suffered |
great loss in being passed by. We really
pity you, Borough, City and Town 1 but try
not to feel proud over our superior advan-
"tages. GAYL 0121).
WEST STRAF‘ORD. _
News items are-scarce, and we find our—
self wishing that something stirring would
transpire so that we might chronicle it, but
alas! it seems that we are to be doomed to
disappointment, for every thing pursues the
even tenor of its way; no burglaries, no
drunks, as fights, no elopemrnts;—none of
the thOusand and one things that go towards
making up items, and we are kideed a happy
and prosperous people. ’
We have received from some unknown
friend, a Copy of the Park street Chronicle, a‘
little paper published yearly by the Park
street Congregational church of Bridgeport.
The paper is finely gotten up, and is full of
good things. It is in perfect keeping with
the society it represents, for the Park street
church never does anything by halves.
Last Thursday evening we were startled
by the sound of a horse car bell , on Barnum.
meet, and on investigation the bell proved
to be attached to a horse belonging to the
Bridgeport Horse Railroad Company, which
had broken loose from the car near Nobles’
bridge in East Bridgeport. On turning the
corner of Lake and Barnum streets, the horse
was thrown, when he was caught by some
of the bystanders. The 'd‘rstanco from
Nobles’ bridge to where the horse was caught
is nearly one and one half miles, and strange
to say‘the horse was not in the least injured.
We have heretofore called attention to a
practice which we think ought to be stop-
ped, and if there is no other way to stop it,
then invoke the law. No lady can pass by
the Frary Cutlery shop in East Bridgeport
but what she must be subjected to annoying
and insulting remarks bysome of the men
who work there. .Several cases of such
doings have been witnessed by ur, and we
have thought if manufacturing companies
must employ such brutea as help, thenteacb
them to behave with at least half the decency
of a brute.
Despite the cold weather which we have
lately bad, vegetation looks Very promising-
We take no stock in old .croalcrs who are
continually raging “ we .won’t have any
summer and we can't raise anything. ” We
believe in: the promise of Him who said,
long years ago: “While the earth remaineih
seed ‘time and harvest, and cold and heat,
and summer and wintor, and day and night
shall not cease. Stop crackers, stop lament-
ing and go to work. ' . W.
