in the afternoon, and were addressed by Mr.
\‘i". M. Hall, Secretary of the State Sunday
School Association, and Rev. S. Scovillc of
Stamford. Neither of the pastors of the two
churches were able to attend on account of
sickness.
Last Wednesday, Capt. Hezekiah Davis
died, being nearly eighty-eight years of age.
He was born in Green's Farms, and lived
during the most 'of his active business life in
'Scutlipcrt, whence he removed about twenty
three years ago to Cambridge, Mass, and
about six years thereafter to this place.
Capt. D. in early life followed the sea, and
was engaged in the West India trade. After
he left the vessel’s' deck, he continued in the
shipping business, going to New York often
to uive it' needed attention. While at
Cambridge he attended to the business on
that end of the line between New York and
Boston. He became a christian in early
life, so that for about seventy years he bore
the honored 'nameéof Christ. He was one of
the main pillars of the Methodist church in
Southport, and was greatly instrumental of
the erection of the present Methodist house
of worship in that place many years ago.
For some six years he had been in declining
and feeble health, and at last passed away as
a little child falls to sleep.
Sleigh bells jingled merrily on last Wed-
nesday and Thursday.

WEST STRATFORD.
The lecture by Rev. A. McNicholl, last
Friday evening, was well attended, and fi.
nancially it was a success.
Much complaint is made in regard to
Sunday liquor selling in this place, and it
would not be surprising if the violators of
the law should be brought up with a sudden
twist ere long.
A number of cases of diphtheria are rc—
ported. Some of them are very severe.
One case terminated fatally last week.
Rev. Father Synnott who preached the
funeral sermon of Patrick Corcoran, who
was murdered by John Haley in Bridgeport
last week, made use in the sermon of the
- following language which should be consid-
/
cred carefully by every one who reads it, as
it contains more truth than many a lecture
on the subject of temperance.
“This community has seldom been startled
by a greater grief and sorrow and distress
than at. the present instance, where a good
man, a sober and industrious inan.in his own
little home, has perished by the hand of an
assassin. I can find but one cause for it—
that is the evil which is working So much
crime and misery all over the world. 1 be-
lieve Mr. Corcoran was a good Christian man.
He was a good neighbor. He never had any
trouble on his own account, It was in the
exercise of that charity, which iscommendcd
to us all, that be exposed himself to that.
great Calamity, which has left his family so
hopeless and his little home so deeply in
debt. Inteinperaucc is a great evil and any
one who is'iu any way engaged in any busi-
ness that encourages it, is in a business that
cannot. bring him much pleasurein this world
nor do him much good in the next.”
And yet the cry is raised that the rum
business is a “legitimate” one,—that too
msny restrictions are now placed upon it.
Our prominent church workers—many of
them fear to speak their mind on the subject
lest they offend some one. A Christian who
will not lift up his or her voice against
this great National curse which is
sending so many to the gravc,—tbat is
filling our jails, insane asylums, and aims-
houses,—that causes so many mothers and
children to go without proper means of
sustenance—that is the cause of nine-tenths.
of the misery seen in the world, is unworthy
the name of Christian becausc' by shutting
their eyes to this great evil they violate the
teaching of God’s own holy word.
In the City of Bridgeport there is a license
to eVery 27:1.- inhabitants. Is it any wonder
that crime is on the increase there? Is it
any wonder that boys not yet out of their
teens, with the example set before them by
fathers who frequent these haunts of vice,
become hardened at an early age, and by the
time they are men are wrecks mentally and
physically.
Too mamy restrictions on the liquor busi-
ness? The fact may not be generally known
that a movement is now on foot. in different
part of the State to make the business of
Sunday rum selling more easy. Not content
with working ruin six days of the week, the
vultures who feed and fatten on the hard
earned wages of the mechanic, seek to
destr'oy every vestige of the Sabbath and
have it given up to drunken orgies. It is
time for action on the part of respectable
people; time to cry halt! W.

The Curtain Concert was rendered at the
Opera House Friday night. The curtain
feature was a novelty. On the face of a
curtain were painted neVeral figures, varying
in height from iliirty inches to eight feet,
the short figures being very fat. and the long
figures very lean. When the lips of IIICSI‘
figures moved with the flow of the song and
their eye lids fell and rose some of the nu—
dicnce at first thought it was an ingenious
mechanical performance, Shortly it dawned
upon them that the printed figures. were
supplied with natural features belonged to
some of the townspeoph'. Still the delusion
was can ied on to a more or less extent through
the evening.
The situation of the batters has changed
but little. A number of men have been

WESTPORT‘.
The 150th anniversary of Washington’s
birth was a holiday here, and Fastday as
well, being Ash Wednesday. In the churches

regards weather, to look, as it were, into the
merits of expiring winter. '

National Hall was the scene of. festive
gayety Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
evenings of last week, the occasion being a
fair held by the ladies of the Congregational
church, of which Rev. Mr. Hart is pastor,
fd'r the benefit of the church. An object so
worthy drew together each evening crowds
of people who invested liberally in the use-
ful‘aud fancy articles offered by the ladies.
Those who patronized the refreshment tables,
(and the result after counting the ducats is
flattering.) shows that the “New ‘England
Supper” idea as presented on these occasions
helped vastly to secure the success of the
enterprise. Filled with bright faces, its
walls hung with decorations, National Hall
never looked finer, and the light from its
windows beamed forth reproviugly into the
darkness of February’s last nights. For three
entertainment: of such pleasant nature the
people gratefiply thank the ladies, and. await
their next announcement.
Mr. George S. Adams has sold for $1,100

Prominent citizens and lawyers of West!
port are opposed to the bill to be introduced
to the legislature providing that all sessions

Wednesday evening an apron and neck tie
festival (oysters on the bill of fare) was held
at Cross Highway. A fair sum was realized
thereby for the lodge room in that place. ‘
Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Rogers of Saugatuck
received and entertained a company of mas-
qucraders at their home Monday evening of
last week, and Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Allen
were “surprised” at their house Wednesday
following.

A horse belonging to Mr. E. H. Nash
which had observed boys enjoying them-'
selves on the ice, took auction to do the
same thing, fancying that his iron shoes
would serve as good a purpose as skates.
He chose a day after the late thaw when the
ice locked thick and smooth, but was really
thin, and when, as instinct told him, none
were nigh to reprove him for his folly, he
approached the pond: At first he shrank in
fear, but the ponds fair covering reassured,
and with a horse laugh, he dashed forward,
The ice proved too frail for so greats. weight,
and with a splash down he went. Held as if
in a pair of stocks, he could move neither
forward or back till assistance came. A
half hour’s bath in water at the freezing
point taughifirhe animal a lesson.
The judgment of Judge Beers at the March
term (1881) of the Court of Common Pleas,
in the case of McCauu v.9. Sanford, that the
plaintiff recover land in dispute, $108 dama-
ges and his cost, has been afiirmed by the
Supreme Court. The case has been in court
since May, 1879, and the cost, it is said,
amounts to three times more than the value
of the land.

-Men employed by the N. Y. N. H. & H.
iailroad were sent to Saugatuck Fridaylo
take additional surveys of the land west of
the depot where it is proposed to straighten
the Great Marsh road by carrying it; east of
Mr. Harry Smith's house, across the salt
meadows, thus bringing it almost in line with
the road'lcading to Westport. This chabge,
as anybody can see, is demanded by the
traveling public as a. means to avoid danger
from passing railroad trains, the existing
roadway being within afew feet. of the tracks,
and very crooked. Already sev/eral accidents
have occurred at that point, and in one in-
stance a man came near losing his life. The
railroad company, so it. is said, will pay the
cost ,of excavating to carry the road under
their tracks, and there is no doubt that they
will be liberal in whatever else may fall to
iliem by way of assisting in bringing this
retill y good work about. Mr.Landon Ketch-
um, owner of a portion of the salt marsh,
who is now in France will donate the right;
of way, and other marsh owners should do
as well. It is believed the dirt to be taken
from the railroad embankment will nearly or
quite grade the roadway over the marsh,aud
the expense which the town' may be called
on to pay, cannot be heavy. The proposi-
tion is one of such importance that citizens
owning horses and having occasion to drive
them over the road as it now is, should give
the matter attention, and favor the improve~
merit. .
News was received at Saugatuck Friday,
by cable, of the death in Belfast, Ireland. of

Fun with a Llnchpln.
Three boys of our acquaintance are good,
kind hearted, generous fellows, who would
not intentionally do any mean not. They
are also active, fun-loving. They have just
the talent and abilities to make excellent men
and we have considered them among the
best. and most promising boys we know of.
Recently they saw a farmer selling potatoes
from his wagon, and made some jocose rc-
mark about one of his horses. He rather
grnflly told them to “go away.” No déubt
he was weary and no one enjoys having
sport made of what he may not be able to
help. A few, minutes later he carried a
basket of potatoes to the cellar of a customer,
and the boys noticed that the linchpiu which
held one of the wheel: on, was loose and
partly out. Had they acted upon the im-
pulse'of their heart’s bent and real feelings,
they would have pushed it back into its
place, or have told him about it. But,
prompted by their fun-loving natures, in a
thoughtless moment they pulled the pin out
and dropped it on the ground, halt wishing
or hoping, perhaps, he would see it, but. yet
thinking what fun it would be to see the
wheel come off, and the potatoes dumped
into the street. So they went off a little dis-
tance, putting on an unconcerned look, but
watched for the result. On starting the team
the wheel left the axle, the potatoes did
tumble and spread out. in amusing style, and
the boys had a hearty laugh. But the crash
frightened the apparently dull team; they
started on a jump which threw the farmer
off his balance; he fell in front, and a wheel
crushed the bones of his right arm,'and
barely escaped crushing his head also. He
is now confined to his bed, and will never
be able to uk his arm at hard work. The
horses ran against a tree, not only scattering
the potatoes widely, but smashing the wagon
and the broken tongue maimed one of the
horses so that he had to be killed Had these
boys stopped to look ahead and see the
possible result of what. at the first impulse,
seemed so small a matter as pulling out a
bit of iron, would they have done it? We
like to see our young friends cheerful,
happy, we had almost said frolicsome, and
will say it in the best sense of the word—
but, clear boys, whenever you are planning
any enterprise, or sport, remember the
“Linchpin,” and stop long enough to think
what may be the outcome, ,and don’t run
risks, hoping that chance may bring all out
well. Chance isa fickle thing, not to be
trusted.—Agrz‘culturz‘st.

Old Maids.
If we knew the heart-histories ‘of many
old maids we should find them character-
ized by the purest pathos and life’s most
elevating disciplines. Often does a woman
remain single because she is faithful to an
idea. Perhaps some happy dream af girl-
hood was broken by death or estrangemeut
—herbaps she has never met the man who
fully realized her aspiration and whom, in
perfect faulty, she could fe herself able to
love, honor and ablei‘. Whatever men may
think on the subject, the last word “obey,’
has a grave meaning to thoughtful women
who, conscious of a “soul of their own,” are
a little terrified at all obedience might in-
’volve. Other women there are of gentle
and more yielding natures who have formed
an ideal, whichiu real life is never approx.
imately reached, though this class only de-
sire to find the idol worthy of their adora-
tion and obedience. At any rate, the we-
men who remains single rather than make a
“half-hearted marriage" is worthy of all
home—Selected. '
