WESTPORT. '
The Democrats of this district, last Wed-
nesday, pitted a pretty good man, Mr. J. E.
Wheeler of Saugatuck, for Senator, as op-
posed to our popular candidate for the same
position—Mr. Tallmadge Baker. Some of
t‘he outspoken democrats highly compliment
Mr. Baker as a fair man and worthy of sup-
port even by political enemies. Republicans
who know Mr. Baker, allude to him in the
highest terms. There is little doubt that
each candidate will receive support from the
ranks of his opponents. So far as .Weéfport
is concerned, she will feel easy should either
candidate succeed. What troubles Republicans
is how they can wield the political butcher
knife so as to kill off John W. Hurlbutt for
Representative. _
Dry weather causes the Lees’ Mfg. Com-

Vennor, as likely to occur between the dates
of October 23 and 26, reach us on time, the
company will be willing to help fete the ven-

Westport ladies who attended the session
of the Indian Aid Society, in Stamford, last
week, are loud in praises of hospitality with
which they were favored by the ladies of
that enterprising place. Dignity, as Well as
interest was added to the occasion by the
presence of Bishop Williams and clergyman
from New York and Connecticut. The la-
dies assert that an institution which bestows
'so many good things upon those at home,
working in its behalf, cannot fail abroad in
accomplishing much. The list of “Ready
Workers” for the Indians, so the ladies say,
is daily growing larger.
Mr. A. S. Hurlbutt is able to ride out every
day, and Mr. A. C. Nash hopes for bene-
fits from the bracing air of Indian summer.
By this time the two young Westport men
who went to Bridgeport last week, visited a
certain institution about seven miles north of
it, got into a dispute with the occupants as
to the hiding place of a pocket-book contain—

ed up in the city prison, must feel that such

bushels. But then who ever heard of a local

We call the attention of our readers to the
card of Mr. Walter J. Hall in to-day’s issue
Our music-loving citizens will not fail to
appreciate this opportunity for first-class
instruction upon the piano. We clip the
following from the Bridgeport Standard:
“The matinee piano recital given by Mr.
Walter J. Hall at St.John’s Hall, Saturday
afternoon, drew out a large, select and cul-
tured audience, comprised mostly of ladies
with a fair sprinkling of the sterner sex. Of
Mr. Hall’s wonderful execution and graceful
movements upon the piano, it is hardly nec-
essary to speak. Those who witnessed his
playing at the Opera House a few months
ago were still more impressed by his case of
manner, and entire command of his instru-
ment at this recital. While executing the
most intricite music with the greatest appar-
ent case, and without a note before him, he
bore himself very modestly, seeming to be
entirely unconscious of self and wholly wrap-
ped up in the sweet sounds he was evoking.
The programme comprised selections from
the great composers, commencing with Back
and including Beethoven, Schuman, Schu-
bert, Silas, Lcschitzki, Chopin and Liszt.
Playing these entirely from memory, with
sympathetic touch and tone, it is no wonder
he was repeatedly cncored, and that the au-
dience was at times most heartily enthusias-
tic. In the celebrated spinning song from
“The Flying Dutchman” of Wagner-Liszt in
which finely developed tecnigue are required
to properly interpret the music. Mr. Hall
evinced his skill and mastery of the instru-
ment, and in responding to the numerous en-
cores showed the most obliging disposition
proceeding at once to the piano, by the way,
a Steinway Grand, and in the most unobtru-
sive manner again and again playing the most
intricate pieces. Mr. Hall continued thus to
charm his audience for upwards of two hours
with scarcely a pause, and showed scarcely
any signs of fatigue at the close.

The saluting of the British flag at York,
town created, according to Mr. Smalley, a
deep feeling of grateful sympathy in Eng-

naturally watched the centennial celebrations
and have been struck by the fact with which
Americans have avoided ,olIense and the
good taste and heartiness of their allusions to
the mother country. American sympathy is
peculiarly acceptable at the present crisis.”

NORWALk, CONN., Fall seaSon of ’31.
To the Farmers of Fairfield and Litchfield
Counties .' -
GENTLIMEN; I desire to call your atten- .
tion to the fact that I shall have this Fall the
largest stock of dry lumber ever offered in
this vicinity. 0f barn covering I have now
on the Erie canal, and due here by the 20th
of this month, 250 thousand feet of 10-inch
boards, dressed and matched in the finest mill
in the world.
I am also shipping from Bay City, Michi-
gan, 225 thousand feet of narrow barn cover-
ing. This will be planed two sides, matched
in the middle of the edge so as to turn either
side out, and for onion and tobacco barns
Will be unsurpassed. This lumber is all of
the cut of 1880, is dry, sound knotted, and
with little or no sap, being manufactured.
from stock boards. ,I am receiving and sell;-
ing as they arrive the shingles‘from two mills
to wit : ,The T. H. McGraw ’& Co. and] E.
J. Hill brands. 0f each of these I have sold
during the past few years several millions,
am thoroughly acquainted with them, and
can guarantee them as unexcelled by any
shingle in the state of'Michigan. The lum
her is soft, free from shake, the shingles are
honestly made, and I will warrant them to
cover 140 feet to the thousand‘ when laid 5
1-2 inches to the weather. I have not known
a case where they have not exceeded this.
I have also arranged for a full line of clear
dry 1 and 1 1-4 inch Spruce, 14 feet long, as
well as the ordinary length of 13 feet. In
all grades of lumber used in storing and car-
ing Onions I aim to keep fully supplied. Am
prepared to make special figures for car load
lots of lumber for tobacco cases, either cut up
or simply surfaced two sides. In Spruce
timber, I keep a fall assortment of all usual
sizes, from 2x3 to 8x8 and 6x10 up to about
40 feet in length.
Gentlemen, There is no doubt about the
fact that a person can sometimes go into the
wholesale market and buy dr-y lumber, but
as a general rule the way to get it is to buy it,
take good care of it, and season it. However
unpleasant it may be to carry a years , stock,
it is the only way I can find to give my cus-
tomers what they want. It is what I have
done for three years, and what I shall con—
tinue to do so long as my trade will justify it.
In all grades of finishing lumber I cffer
stock of Pine, Spruce, Hemlock, Ash, Black
Walnut, Cherry, Whitewood, and Southern
Pine, from one to three years old.
I will deliver lumber promptly anywhere
that customers will pay for taking it, by rail,
team or vessel, and my facilities for so doing
are as perfect as I desire. ‘ Nine-tenths of my
lumber I buy from the man who cuts down
the tree. I get as near the producer as it is
possible to get, and deliver the production to
my customers as low as is consistent with a
fair, reasonable profit to myself, to which I
am entitled. In this way I am enabled to
offer to the public every advantage of the
wholesale market as well as to reap some
benefit for myself , which I am free to say is
the primary object. '
Inquiries in person or by correspondence
will be promptly attended to. Soliciting a
continuance of thepntrdnage so liberally ex—
tended heretofore, I am respectfully yours,
113-er-
