come his wife. They will take with them

If not mumps, what was it. The son of a

bad feeling in the region of the throat. . The

hung about him. The doctor who was called

mumps, as .1 number of cases were reported
in his neighborhood. The young man was.
willing to have the-matter so stated and he
was at once filled with hot catnip tea and
put to bed. In a day or two he beganto
mend and then what really ailed him crop.

taken, unassisted to yoke 11 pair of young
bulls which his fatlier'desired to break in for
the spring weik. He. did not succeed well
in the task as one of the bulls- went for
him, not liking the idea of being tied to
another bull. He finally got ’em yoked
thohgh . the process subjected ‘him to a
terrible .jyanking such as bulls alone know
how to inflict. 'Now only think. to make the
business of breaking {sure, he had yoked a
pair of stage to go ahead of the bulls and a
pair of steers to go behind to help steady
them, and to keep those bulls in place be-
tween other cattle in connection with the
strain of bull yoking alluded to, tested to the
full, and about used up the physical as well
as the young man's mental energy. When

CARPET BAGS. '
In these days of rapid travel everybody
carriesacarpet bag. This can be demon-
strated by trips on railroads and steamboats.
These bags are of all colors, yellow, browu,
drab, green and even white ; black as a color
predominating. They are of all sizes too,
from the overgrown contrivsnce of the mer-
chant drumm to that of the tiny Miss and
rollicki scho boy. The character of per-
sons cfie formed from the bags they carry
and to some extent everybody is a carpet.-
bagger. As, according to General Grant,
carpet-baggers have done more to develop
our. vast country than any other class, it
might be well enough here to _note_some_ of
their characteristics. Our task, however, is
not with men, but with bags, and the.
mysteries of makingthem. A visit to J. D.
Wood’s establishment near River street above
the Old Bridge, enables the writer ‘to speak
intelligently on the subject. Mr. Wood
founded his shop about one year ago, staking
his financial venture on original ideas, every
detail of the business from the buying of
material to the shipment of the finished
commodity, accounts, correspOndence, ete.,
being in his own hands. He has not Only
Caused a structure to rise from the ruins of
a factory owned by his uncle, WilliamWood,
which was once a place of great activity, but
has introduced novel and expensive machin-
ery, the motive power fer driving which
being from a never failing stream. At this
time he employs about 40 persons who are
capable of turning out daily 50. dozen bags.
Tons of strawboard' and leather, cases of
calico and linen, and large quantities ‘of glue
and all that appertains. thereto are monthly
required. While much of the fine work on
bags is done by hand, the sewing machine
plays an important part, and great skill in
their use is attained. - The numerous parts Of
each bag pass into the hands of persons, who
have a special duty to perform, and to fol-
low the work from~the first stroke of the
knife in the leather from which a bag is
formed, till it falls into the hands of the
packer and is made ready for shipment,would
be almost an impossibility. The scene in
Mr. Wood’s place on an average day is lively
mam-boys and girls flying about attending'
to the duties assigned them, each working
with that system and purpose denoting the
well laid plans of a master mind. The vs-
ricties of bags turned out are so many in
number as to defy classification here, and
the prices at which they are sold ranging as
they do from 256210 $25, make it apparent
that, no matter how poor in purse the cus-
tomer, he need never travel without his.
bag. Mr. Wood’s patrons arein nearly every
State in the Union, and he is continually
filling orders. The fixtures‘of bags, such as
handles, guards, fastenings, lock. steel frames
and decorations are countless in their number
and variety. They are made elsewhere and
purchased as wanted, the cameras nails, a
carpenter uses for the house which he bgilds
with his own hands. Mr. Wood laid the
first stone for his building in April, 1880,
and made his first shipment of-bags in August
following. Since that time he has had all
creasing. He is satisfied with the situation
and confident of achieving permanent suc-
cess.

A few days, ago word was brought ,to
Bridgeport, that a Woman who had been

the Housatonic track, in the northern part
of that city. Shortly after, ‘a solemn proces-

servedgwending its way to the scene-of the
shpposed fatal accident: It must not be
supposed, that flees were any incentive ‘0

supposed corpse, and with uncovered head

ing the body laying exposed to the wintry
weather, for so long a time. At last one of
the procession, ventured to make the query
of the corpse, “what are you doing here ?"

him that the woman was dead—drunk. A

National hospital met Wednesday, and elect-
Marion Sims of New York ; vice—presidents,
Drs. Frank H. Hamilton of New York,
George B. Hawley of Hartford; secretary
Dr. T. D.'Crothers of Hartford. This is the
first hospital for inebriste women and opium
caters ever projected. The charter provides 1
that no appropriation shall be received from
the state of Connecticut, so that its national
character can be preserved, and that no
state can claim it. The board f trustees
represents the subscribers to the und from
ten different states, including. men who have
a national reputation. .
The hospital building will be erected in
some town ofConnecticut.(probably Wilton,)
as to which the final determination is not
at reached. Plans have been prepared by
Ir. Jackson of Néw York, a well-known
architect, and. have been accepted by the
trustees. They prov'de for a granite build-
ing which will accommodate three hundred
patients, and the charter requires that “evei y
tenth bed shall be free for poor patients
forever." It is intended that the institution
shall combine all the comforts of chemo
with the best hospital appliances. Any
person giving two hundred dollars to finish
and furnish a room in this hospital will be
entitled to name.tho room. Work on the
building will begin'in May next. Several
large endowments are promised, and the
widespread interest already manifested is a
strong proof of the necessity of such a work.

Dismission of Rev S. B. Hershey;
The Consociation of Fairfield East held a
special meeting in the Second Congregational
church, of Danbury, last Wednesday. The
following minute was the result of the meet-
ing :
Whereas, Rev. S. .B. Hershey has re-
gntional Church in Danbury, and his resig-
nation has been accccpted by both church
and society, subject to the approval of this
council, therefore . .
_ Resolved, That the pastoral relation sub-
sisting between Rev. S. B. Hershey and the
Second Congregational Church and Society
of Danbury, be, and hereby is dissolved. In
terminating this relation we wishfto express
our gratification in view of the hearty una-
nimity which has ever appeared to charac-
terize it, and of the good work done by our
brother in advancing the general interests of
the church and community. It is With re-
luctance that we part with a brother, ,who
has by his ability and social qualities warmly.
endeared himself to our hearts. And in
leaving us, we bear testimony to his ability,
and usefulness as a preacher, and especially
tohis emmiuent success ip pastoral work.. '
To the church bereft of a postdr we ten-
der our :heartfelt sympathy, and cOmmend
it to Him, who loved the church and gave
himself for it. May He speedily sehd ' them
one, who shall be a faithful teacher and pas-'
,tor, and shall take‘ up the work '.,thus laid
down, that His cause he not hindered.

Theaecident chapter is always full. One
copy of the Chicago Times tells of a fellow
at Bloomington, Ills , who pointed an empty
pistol at his sister and pulled the trigger.
She fell dead. A fellow at Grand Haven,
Mich, fired a rifle at some ducks and killed
himself. A man in Jackson, Mich, choked
to death at the'tablc with a piece of beef
steak. Alady at Racine, Wis, went to a
party and had a grand time. On the way
home she fell and broke her leg. A driver
of a stage at Logansport, Ind, tried to hold
his frightened horses. They ran under a
bridge that was too low for the stage and tho.
driverwas crushed to death. At Maquoke‘ta,
Iowa, the oldest house in the place was
struck by lightning and destroyed on'the
- 27thuof February.
