» WESTPORT.
A school visitor is supposed to be a very
serious person,——one not given to indulgence
in any of those things for which funny
school boys have reputation. He takes a
‘business view of all matters and discourages
acts which lower the standard of teaching, or
which may tend to impair the. good effects
0f example. But it sometimes happens these
solemn men step aside from rules, because
they cannot help it, do that which they
most strenuously oppose in others. ' This
was the case one day last week when a
member'of the School Board after examining
a certain school, went out and slid down hill
with the boys on their “double rippersi'
The hill was a glade of ice andthe 513‘?Ed
made by th’e'rippers was great. The skill of
the boys pleased the visitor who was, at his
request allowed to steer one of the new
faugled things. He went down the'hill and
helped draw the ripper 'up several times, and
departed at last with the acknowledgment
that even wise men may relish "a little non-
sense now and then.
Hens are laying eggs over here worth four

Messrs. E. B. Adams and James B. Peffers

Superior Court. " ,
Tuesday afternoon last a strange looking man
alighted at the depot from one of the eastern
bound trains. He came from New York and
proved to be David Jones, a relative of Dan—
iel Kirk,'to whose house he proceeded, and
is the same Jones who, three years ago, with
a man named Leslie, sold a horse to Rev.
Father Keatiug for $175 which proved to
have been stolen by them from parties resid-
ing in Philadelphia. As will be remembered
Father Keating thought at the time he" had
made a good purchase, for the horse was a
fine animal. He enjoyed possession but a
short time though, for the real owners came
from the city of Brotherly Love to claim
their propert valuing it at $210. They
gave such strong proofs of ownership that
the reverend buyer reluctantly conceded their
prior claims and gavc'up the property. Short-
ly after the transaction Leslie was taken into
custody in Philadelphia for bursa-stealing and
was sent to prison for three years. This gave
a bad look to the character of Jones who, af-
ter his companions’ incarceration, had all he
could do to keep out of the authorities way.
He succeeded very well till last Tuesday
when, thinking his performance here forgot—
ten, he ventured to make Westport a visit.
Father Keating heard ‘of his arrival and dis— '
patched Deputy Sheriff Burns and Constable
Kemper to arrest him. They fOnnd him in a
coal bin at the rear of Mrs. Daniel Kirk’s
house whither he had fled to conceal himself.
Afierahard-fought battle, in which Jones
displayed much of the desperado but very
little fight, he was brought from the dust of
his hiding place to the light of day, and plac-
ed in the village lock-up. Henceforth that
institution will be called “Davy J oncs’ Lock-
er.” Wednesday, Jones was taken before
Justica Finch who, finding probable cause,
bound him over for trial to the Superior
Court, fixing bonds at $500; Jones failed to
obtain the same and went that day to Bridge;
port.
' Mr. Andrew C. Nash, speaking of cold
winters of which the present is a fair spec—
imen, says the cold we now experience bears
no comparison to that of half a century ago
and earlier. In proof thereof he says his
grandfather, Daniel Nash, whose remains are
buried in the church yard north of St. Paul’s
Church, Norwalk, walked across Long Island
Sound from Huntington harbor to Norwalk,
on the ice, which had formed thick enough
to hold him. The feat was accomplished
near the close of the Revolutionary War, as
Mr. Nash thinks, about the year 1782. The
hero of this adventure resided 86 years on
property owned by him near Patchogue, L.
1., and also owned largely on the Connecticut
side of the Sound, and was obliged to pass
frequently from one estate to the other. In
the absence of railroads which at the time
had scarcely been: dreamed of, he availed
himself of means at hand, even furnished by
Mr. J. Frost, to transact his business.
Being a bold, enterprising man he set out to
do what few mortals would, and succeeded.
Of late years, despite claims to the contrary,
it is believed ice thick enough to warrant
a man walking across ' the sound has not
formed between the two points named. '
Messrs. Hubbell & W akcman are unload-

consumers out. The piers of four bridges
will hold the ice firmly in the Saugatuck
river till the middle of March, when cargoes
may again be received. ‘

It is suggested that the New Haven rail—

of the 'tracks east of the bridge where all
trains stop, for the benefit of those Who wish
to take express trains, and who,have to wait
frequently a long time in the cold. By law,
trains are obliged to stop before crossing the
draw, and people will takezthe train from
choice. A good shed would increasePtravel.

BRIDGEPORT.
Several of the Churches in this city have
continued their extra services since the week
of prayer with excellent results. The at-
mosphere seems fuller of spiritual influences
that it has been for some .time past. No
doubt the tragical death of two Of 0111‘
citizens has led many of their acquaintances
to serious thought respecting the highest
themes, “After the fire, the still small voice”
is heard, urging to higher and purer life.
The many friends in Norwalkand vicinity
of the Wilton bay, George Comstock, will
be pleased to learn that he has been pro-
moted to a partnership in the firm for which
for several years he has been laboring. This
is a deserved advancement, as Mr. Comstock
has been devoted to his employers and has
developed fine business qualities while in
their service. Three of the former members
of the firm retire and two new men are
admitted and the firms name is changed from
“Morford dz; Trubee” to David Trubee & Co.
Mr. Trubee, Senior, so well-known in
Norwalk. as the Seperintendent of the
LeGrand Lockwood place, during the erec-
tion of its fine mansion, died this last week,
of a paralytic stroke. He attended church
Sunday evening, Jan. 30, and at 2 o’clock on
the following morning was stricken with
paralysis that soon terminated his life. He
was a respected and esteemed citizen, and is
sincerely mourned. '
The Standard says of him:—
“Hcleavesa wife and three sons. The
deceased was a building contractor and has
followed that business most of his life. He
has s'uperintended the erection of a great
many buildings, the most important of which
of Norwalk, which was several years build-
ing and cost $1,000,000. He was also Mr.
Barnum’s right hand man in the erection of
Iranistan. ,He was a native of Fairficld
and came to Bridgeport from Long Island
with his brother Samuel C. Trubcc in,1844.
Several well known buildings in town were
built under his supervision. He was a re-
publican in politics but never took active part
in political contests and never sought oflice.
Personally lie was universally esteemed and
respected, and was known as an energetic
business man.”
How balmy the atmosphere is of late!
A Bridgeport lady suggests that Vennor’s
“thaw." has been realized, in the universal
thawing out of water pip'cs. etc. Mr. L. W.
Leavenworth of this city, while attempting
to bring a congealed water main into right
condition, on Wednesday last, was severely
ifjured by the explosion of a boiler employed
in the process. Why is it that the explosive
these days?

Steam fi re engines were engaged last week
in. thawing out hydrants. Some were found
badly frozen, requiring an hour or more to

few minutes.
The Bridgeport boats gave up all attempts
to make trips last week. _

by the death of Samuel Moyle.
The coal ofi'ice of Wheeler & Howes, in
East Bridgeport, was entered by thieves on
Friday night last: The safe was blown open
and about $600 taken therefrom. There is a
suspicion that the same parties who have
been operating in Stratford during the‘ last
year, are 'the guilty Ones. I

went out and rescued them from their peril-
ous position. They were nearly exhausted
when rescued. ‘

leveled, and a new sea wall of heavy stone
erected at considerable expense, which will
improve still further the already excellent
bathing facilities. The building is expected
to be ready for occupancy early in April.

TnE WHIPPING POST FOR WIFE BEATERS.—-
The grand jury of Essex county, N. J ., sit-
ting in Newark, closed the presentment
Thursdayby recommending the whipping
post as a mode of punishment for wife beat-
ing. They claim that the crime of wife
heating is on the increase; that imprisonment
is a punishment which results often to the
spending reformation on his part, and that,
on the whole, the whipping post should be
set up. Sheriff Van Reneelner said he be—
lieved whipping. would be afgood thing for
wife heaters, and ex-Sheriff James Peckwcll,
who is a member of the grand jury, is heart-
ily in favor of it. J u'dge John M. Meeker,
of the Court of Quarter Sessions, said that
It was a problem what to do with wife beat-
ers. Wives withdraw complaints, fearing
that their husbands will be sent to jail and
their families left destitute.
Mr. P. T. Barnum, in talking the other
day of his feelings during his recent severe
illness,said : “I looked back and could hardly
recall a benefit I had rendered to my fellow
men all- my life. ' The folly, the stupidity of
childish strifes, bickerings and differences
occurred to me so strongly that I resolved
that the sun would never go down on me
cherishing malice in my heart against asingle
fellow being. This feeling led me to write
to men inBridgeport and elsewhere with
whom I had diflerenccs—trivial perhaps, but
still sufficient to keep us apart—and they all
returned replies in the most kindly and cou—
siderate spirit. This was Very gratifying to
me then, and is no less so now when I feel
that I will remain upon earth a little longer,
to do.”

A Georgia mule dealer remarks: “I have

years, and neyer saw the people in such a

Georgia farmer carries $100 or so in his
breeches pocket all the time. A few years
ago when 1 sold a mule to a farmer, he inva—
riably took me to his factbry and borrowed
the mOney to pay ‘for it with. Now he runs
his hands into his pocket, draws out a wallet
and counts me down the bills. There is no
.longer any sale for cheap mules. Even the
“98m“ WOD’t buy anything but the best, and
they always have the moneyto'pay with.”
