CITY OF WEST NORWALK. -
Mr. Joseph H. Raymond,wa was thought
to be much better in health, has suffered a
slight relapse.
Messrs. Raymond Johnson & Son, have.
completed a very neat and large letter box
for the Daricn post office, ordered by post-
master Clock. It will be placed in position
as soon as the other repairs to the post office
are completed, and will add much to the
beauty and convenience of the oilice.
For a number of years, there has seemed
to be no system or plans for working the
roads of the town, but patching up mud holes
and slightly covering rocks and stones have

Mr. J. E. Wheeler of Saugatuck, took pas-
Sflge by the steam yacht Ibis last week for
Boston. The craft was set out in gay attire,
and as shepassed down the harbor for ‘her
new home, her guns spoke a seeming regret-
ful good bye. Captain Fairchild expected to
stop at New London, Newport and other ports
on hisway to the “Hub."
On Tuesday last .while engaged cleaning
an apartment in his house, Mr. Edward H.
Nash had the misfortune to run against an
iron hook in the wall and injured one of his
eyes. It was promptly attended to by Dr.
Phinney of Norwalk, and the patient is now
doing well. .
_ The funeral of the late Charles Nash, who

For the first time Decoration Day was
observed in this town. The citizens gather-
is Mr. John Bunnell—24 acres. The next
largest, Mr. T. B. Wakeman,—20 acres.
Several men have from eight to ten acres, a
large number from one to three, and as to
those who cultivate a patch. their number is
legion. A careful estimate gives the onion
acreage this year at 600. The indications
now are that the average crop will be equal-
ed which will give to the market not far
from 100,000 barrels. Should $5.00 per
barrel,—the hope of every grower, be reg.
lized, the aggregate from this particular
vegetable will be a creditable sum.
The first capsize of the season falls to the
lot of the yacht Julia. >
Stakes have been driven in Green’s Farms
for a depot to be built by the New York &
New Haven road, a few rods east of the
present station. The railroad company have
long been aware of the growing importance
of this thriving place, and their decision to
build as above not only pleases those whom
it will most accommodate but shovvs a dispo-
sition to do the thing that is right on the part
of those managing this great road. .

An immense strike has taken place among
the iron workers of the west, by which it is
estimated that at least 125,000 workmen are
'out of employment. The effect of it is al-

which have discharged large numbers of men
-on account of decrease of freight shipments;
it has also affected the stock market. It is
thought there will be along and bitter strife,
lasting throughout the summer.

this news was untrue. The prophet is not
only alive, but he has placed himself at the
head of a large army and has carried forward
anextensive and vigorous campaign. He has
captured the towns of Dongola, Take, Kond-

he massacred 1,100 persons and forced all the

success which has marked the introduction
of Cream Balm, a Catarrh remedy, prepared

results. Alady down town is recovering
the sense of smell, which she had not en-
joyed for fifteen years, through the use of
the Balm. She had given up her case as
incurable. Mr. Barber, the Druggist, has
used it in his family and commends it very
highly. 'In another column a young Tunk-
