The Gilbert &. Bennett Mfg. Co. are to take
out their 48 inch turbine wheel, and intro—
duce a new 30 inch Risdon wheel, to do the
same work. John Cotter is engineer.
WILTON.
One of our teachers solicitous for the
welfare of his school has introduced an im—
proved reading book at his own expense.
Mrs. Dr. Bassett is now residing on her
place in South Wilton. '
Mr. Josiah Gilbert has repaired “Pilgrim
Hill" so Called by one of Wilton’s newspaper '
correspondents, and its condition is better
than ever before.
Mr. J. 11. Nichols and family have re—
turned for the summer.
Mr. Wm. Horton of Belden’s Hill has
purchased an extensive domain in Green—
wich, and it is rumored that. his son.George
is to be installed as manager-in chief.
rThe Allen farm has been rejuvinated
under the ownership of Dr. White.
Summer residents are beginning to flock to
NVilton, and surely there could not be a
more pleasant place, and now that we' are to
have good roads womay look for a” still larger
influx. .
Mr. Sylvester Olmstead fell from a tree on
the 23d and striking upon his head inflicted a
severe scalp wound and other injuries which
confined him to the house for several days.
The adjourned town meeting was held on
Wednesday-last. The committee appointed
for sundry purposes were discharged, and a
vote rescinding all acts of all the specia1
meetings was passed. This result restores
the vote of the annual meeting and now
something will be done towards improving
our roads, for when things are at their worst
then they begin to mend.
Nod district is much excited over an
slopement, the parties being both married.
The facts are stated briefly as follows : Two
men married sisters. One of the men, last
\Vednesday, left his wife and three children ;
at the same time his sister-in law left her
husband and four children. The parties have
Since been seen together in New York State.
To make matters worse the man who made
off carried with him the cash proceeds of
two notes which his brother-in-law had
kindly endorsed for‘him to the amount of
$400.
" DARIEN.
Dar ien is once again supplied with a bar—
ber. A gentleman in Stamford finding busi-
ness dull in that little town, located here dur-
ing the past week. A place of so much im-
portance as Dai'ien, could not long be over-
looked by the tonsorial profession. .There
can be no doubt but the new comer will be
well patronized as he shows rare skill and
taste in whatever he has done. His praises
are on all lips. “Chris” will find it difficult
to draw any custom from Darien, though he
may need it to. keep up his establishment.
' Dr. Bohannan was married last Tuesday
in New York, at Trinity Church, and G.
Russell Brown on Wednesday, at the same
place. The Doctor returned the next day to
work after patients, needing his care. Mr.
Brown has gone to Niagara and the West
for a few weeks. The newly wedded couples,
have the congratulations and best wishes of
all for their future prosperity and happiness.
Mrs. M. S. Mather and bar daughter, have
gone on a visit for a few weeks to Warwick,
Orange County, IN. Y. A delightful and
healthy part of the great empire state, and
a good place to go. They will no doubt re~
turn recuperated and strong.
The people from the country did not come
to church on Sunday very largely, because of
the rain. But though thus deprived of a
great privilege, all could give thanks and re-
joicc that the rain had come. Gardens and _
fields, and flowers, seem to have caught new
life, *while the discouraged farmer is now‘
radicnt withnew born hope. The grass crop
may not be as large as usual, and yet it will
be fair. The corn notwithstanding the
drought promises well.
Our fellow townsman, J. B. Mather, has
gone to Winsted to visit his daughter and son
for a few days.
Rev. Mr. Arrighi spent last Sunday in
Mcriden. He and the church he represents,
find favor with all those who love a pure
religion, and liberty to worship God accord—
ing to an enlightened conscience. The free
churches of Italy, are destined to be a power
for good in that priest ridden country. The
blighting influence of Romanism, is demons-
trated in the ignorance, moral degradation of
the masses in Italy, once one of the most
enlightened of nations. We hope every
church in this country will hear Mr. Arrighi.
He is an eloquent speaker, and his expe—
riences in his conflicts with the agents of
Romanism, are thrilling. One must hear
his story to understand it clearly. He makes
no attacks on Rome, but simply states facts
as they have come under his eye and which
are knewable to all who will inform them—
selves rcspecting the present intellectual and'
moral condition of the people.
Because of the rain Mr. Bradford defers
his sermon to Young Ladies “0n the Ele-
ments of true womanly character” for two
' weeks. '
Next Sunday evening being the evening
for the monthly concert, Mr. B. will speak on
the condition of woman in Heathen Lands.
I The contrast between the condition of
woman 'there and in America will clearly
show what the gospel has done for them.
On Wednesday of last week, as Mr. Brad-
ley Hall was leading a cow, the animal be—
came frightened and in its efforts to get free,
Mr. Hall was thrown down and sustained
serious injuries, his shoulder being dislocated
and one of the bones broken. Dr. Rowell
was summoned, but found the member so
badly swollen that he required assistance to
set the broken bone. His brother came to
his aid and the injured man was made as
comfortable as possible.
Mr. F. E. Crissey who has been seriously
ill for some time, is thought to be recover-
ing.
The funeral services of the little child of
Mr. Robert Dix, of Noroton, were held on
Tuesday at the house. The remains were
taken to Cypress Hill Cemetery for inter-
ment.
r. David Watcrbur has disposed of his
mile at Ox Ridge, LII. Wm. Campbell of
Stamford being the purchaser.

WESTPORT.
Continued dry weather is injuring growing
crops to an alarming extent. A Saugatuck
man, pointing to his ruined onion patch, said,‘
in town. _
Hortsn-Wrnrrnu—One day last week ex-
chrcsentalivc “7m. Burr Wright, in the
exercise of his duty as Hog Hayward, to
which office he was appointed at the last an—
nual town meeting, finding a pair of oxen be-
longing to Mr. David Flynn, grazing in the
street, drove them to the public pound. ,To
get them out of the pound the owner was
compelled to pay the usual fee. This pay—
ment, and the act of Mr. Wright, so excited
Mr. Flynn’s indignation that he denounced
the Hayward in terms not very polite, and it
is said, threatened him. Mr. Flynn‘s son
Daniel, sympatliizing with his father, resolv-
with a heavy horse whip met him Thursday
evening while on the way from the village
to his house, and administered a castigatnion
which for violence, witnesses say, has not
often been equalled. Mr. Wright had a
small cane in his hand but, it is said, did not
use it. He sustained serious injuries at
the hands of Flynn, who, knowing that he
had committed a wronghand that he would
be complained of for assault, appeared before
a village justice, plead guilty to the act, paid
a small line with costs and went his way.
Flynn's performance is denounced as a high-
handed outrage, and Mr. Wright has the
sympathy .of, and is sustained by the whole
people. . Report says he will bring action
against Flynn for damages.
Sunday, in the matter of weather, was
finest of the season—it rained all day.
A large number of people. brought from
New York, Saturday, by the steamer Adel—
phi, came to Westport to spend the Sabbath.
Low fares had more to do with it than the
sweltering weather.
The public schools were closed Decoration

children as well as adults to celebrate

The Spool foctory will not remove to Wil-

An item in this column recently regarding
the ten minute rule for opening drawbridges
issued by President Watrous, of the New
Haven road, was not printed as a reflection
on the management, but simply to show the
feeling which the order had induced among
resident captains of vessels.
It is estimated that Sunday’s rain was
worth $500,000 to the town of Westport.
The heat of Wednesday sent the mercury
up to 95 degrees, and prostrated several per-
sons who were chlidged to be exposed to it.
One. man, named Samuel Jonas, in the em—
ploy of J. W. Jennings, Greens Farms, was
overcome while at work in a field, and died
before assistance reached him. Deceased
was a native of Hungary. , ‘ -
Interesting centennial services in honor of
Robert Raikes, the supposed founder of Sun-
day schools, were held at the M. E. Church,
afternoon and evening. A large number of
persons were in attendance.
The census cnumerators for this town,
Messrs. H. P, Burr, John Palmer and Lewis
Bradley, will begin work to-day, and it is to
be hoped that our citizens will afford them
every facility for performing their duties in—
telligently and well. The language. of the
instructions under which they are to act, is
something as follows:
“Each cnumerator is obliged to visit cach
house in his district and to collect his infor-
mation personally, not by, deputy. He has
four chief schedules to fill out _ relating to
population, agriculture, manufactures and
mortality. The schedule population requires
information of each person as to name, age,
color, sex, color, sex, condition, occupation,
and various other statistics.”
During the decade ending 1870, Westport
was found to have stood comparatively still,
the
lation. We all want another fair count.
and hope it will result in a more creditable
advance.
There is at this time a dozen dwelling
houses in the town, the sides of which are
covered with shaved shingles made fifty
years ago in Ithaca, N. Y., by the firm with
which Edwin Jessup, eldest son of the late
Ebenezer Jessup was connected. Those
shingles were furnished by Mr. Horace Sta-
ples about the year 1829, and who has been
uninterruptedly in business here ever since.
Not far from one million of the same grade
of shingles, requiring eleven freight cars to
transport them, have just been received by
the veteran dealer, who claims for them the
same good qualities possessed by those
which he had the honor to offer at the out-
set of his business career. '
The Westportcr man is honoring himself
by searching among old burying grounds and
deciphering ancient tombstones. The oldest
date thus far dug up is Oct. 2, 1738, all of
which tends to show that what is now
known as Westport was civilized and some-
what enlightened 142 years ago. In admon-
ishing Brother Jones not to do too much of
this sort of work, we are reminded of what
his, and our former school teacher,—the late
Wm. H. Richards used to often say during
school hours, “Don’t talk too much about your
ancestors, it shows that the best part of you
is under ground.”
Tm: BLUE AND GRAB—Sunday, in accord-
ance with programme and without pomp or
music, a few patriotic men, most of whom
had been active participants in the war. as—
sembled at the house of Capt. H.'P. Burr,
where flowers had been provided, and at 3
o’clock, despite the rain, proceeded to the
various cemeteries to decorate the graves of
our fallen heroes. It wasthe first formal
decoration made in Westport. and to the
honor of the living and dead it was appropri-
ately and well done. Fourteen graves were
decorated, as follows:

The last named was visited at the sugges—
tion of one who felt that it was high time
hostile feelings between North and South had
ceased, that the hatchet be buried. It was a
touching act, and one that will wield an in-
fluence in the future. At Memorial church
in the evening, many soldiers and a large
congregation listened to Rev. A. N. Lewis,
who spoke for and in behalf of the fallen.
The chief sentiment expressed by him was
that, “However men North and South may
differ, on one point all are united, viz.: ‘Who-
ever loses his life in the cause of his country
is worthy to be held in everlasting remem—
brance.’ ” He gave the history of “Deco—-
ration day,” presented the names of West-
port mcn who had fallen during the war, and
at times was very eloquent. He read some
original poetry, and closed by reciting “The
Blue and the Gray." PAUL.

On Tuesday last, as Mrs. W. E. Lobdell
of this place was passing through East Bridge-
port, she was stopped by a young thief,Jamcs
Rooney by name, who wrenched a pocket—
book from her, which she was carrying by
a chain attached to her wrist. The assault
was seen by two young men who started in
pursuit of the thief. He ran up above the
Poor House, and escaped into the woods,and
the pursucrs returned to town. In the
meantime Mrs. Lobdell reported her loss at
the Frary Cutlery Company, and atelephonc
dispatch was sent to Police Station. Officers
Fallon and Hearty were sent to look up the
thief, and about half past—six p. m. found
him in Moriarity’s saloon on the corner of
East Main and Walter streets. In his pocket
was found the pocket-book stolen from Mrs.
Lobdell, with about two dollars remaining of
the four dollars and eighty-two cents, which
it originally contained; the remainder had
had on when arrested. In reply to questions
he admitted that he was the thief who
snatched a pocket-book from Miss Kate
Sheppard a few days before, near Arm.-
., strongls shop, and who robbed another lady
the same evening in the same manner on the
Corner of Broad street and Fairfield Avenue.
In the former case be secured fifty-two
cents and in the latter case ninety cents.
Rooney is only sixteen years old and already
has an uncnviable record as a criminal. He
has served four years in the State Reform
School and his father was once in the State
Priso He has been bound over on three
countsjn the sum of $2,100. The penalty
for larceny from the person, is not less than
two yearsin State’s Prison and not more
than five.
A horse belonging to Mr. E. E. Price of
this place, met with a singular accident a
few days ago. It was turned into a lot, and
the morning after was found with a piece of
wood several feet long thrust between the
skin and the ribs. No one can account for
it, but it is supposed that while running
about the lot the horse must have jumped
upon the fence or apost, andthus injured
itself. As yet the extent of the injuries is
not known. -
We have noticed in several papers lately,
an article in regard to a sorry looking horse
which was driven into Norwalk bya man
(P) named Stratton. “By their fruits ye shall
know them.” We know him, and while
reading the item we were reminded of a
little verse of a poem called "‘Lot Skinners
Elegy. ,
“When he was in the grocery line,
And turning fruit to gold,
He‘d bite a raisin straight in two
To make the weight he sold.”
Some men are too mean to live ; they are

Ever since Prof. Green wrote to the Medi-

to use the Safe Kidney and Liver Cure in
their practise, it has been gaining in favor
with the profession. They 'can find nothing
which- is a substitute for it. R. Caulkins,

What Dir. Plus Might Have Saved
lllmgelf.—MI‘. Henry Pitts, of Kingston,N.

of Rondout, N. Y.,removed the foreign body
by the knife. Had Mr. Pitts, and others sim-
ilarly afflicted, used Kennedy's “Favorite
Remedy” in the earlier stages of the disease,
the medicine would have prevented the forma-
tion of the Calculus or stone, rendering a
dangerous surgical operation unnecessary.
Dr. Kennedy gave “Favorite Remedy” to
prevent the return of the disease, and Mr.
Pitts remains in perfect health to this day.

lmpurc Breath.
Among all the disagreeable consequences
that follow the decay of the teeth, an impure
breath must be the most mortifying and un-
pleasant to its possessor, and it is the most
inexcusable and offensive in society; and yet
the cause of it may easily be removed by
cleansing your teeth daily with that justly
popular dentrifricc, Fragrant SOZODON'I‘.
It purifies and sweetens the breath, cools and
refreshes the mouth, and gives a pearl-like
appearance to the teeth. Gentlemen'who
indulge in smoking should cleanse their teeth
with SOZODON'I‘, as it removes all unpleas—
ant odors of the weed. Ask your druggist
for it. 4420

I had employed some of the most noted (loc-

and for u. long time my case was regarded as
