was playing in Howe’s grove, he was asked
to ride by a man in a wagon. He refused,
but the stranger finally succeeded in getting
him into the wagon. He then drove west

boy like gypsies. Watching his opportunity
when they halted the boy ran away while
the men were in the woods, and during the

J ellif’fe, Saugatuck; Miss Elsie Lees, and Dr.

Counting receipts they found $75 had been
taken, and they concluded to repeat the pro-
gramme Thursday evening. The play of
Cinderella was given, the old time charlie.
ters by new and very young . faces pleasing
the audience. The sisters were as haughty
as ever, the some devices to catch the prince
employed, Cinderella was as sorrowful at
first and as happy at last as she ever was,
aud finally, true to the fairytale, she was the
only one who could wear the slipper, and
the prince did just as the story said he would

ceedingly well. With the fall of the‘ curtain
there was a dance to music by Offcn’s band.
The church ladies are satisfied, pecuniarily,

Tuesday. 4th, resembled the event of 37
years ago. when we celebrated, and W. H.
Richards read the Declaration, Tom Fields
made an ovation, there was a street parade
and a big time in the Congregational church,
“Hez” Nichols howled because the brass
band he had engaged did not arrive in time,
big dinner, speeches and fireworks in the
evening. But we forgot? It rained all day,
and that is why last Tuesday with half a day
of rain was like it. The celebration differed ‘
from its famed predecessor, the people
avoiding noise and tumult seeking the more
sensible parts of quiet. Let’s see? during
a walk about town we saw 23 persons
plowing, 18 with mowing machines, 16 with
scythes, 138 weeding onions, 67 picking
strawberries, 28 in cherry trees, 22 haying,
12 fence laying, 14 planting, 658 seated on
verandas, 109 at croquet, 21 at what looked
like Lawn Tennis, 3 painting, 427 driving,60
sailing, 280 small boys, same number of girls
snapping crackers. 260 with no crackers
looking on, 29 lounging around village
stores, 10 in same, 25 hurrying to Roton, 28
to take Adelphi, 3 to Danbury & Norwalk
extension trip, 45 base ball, 1 garden
hedging, 188 doing nothing, 427 at Catholic
pic-nic; total 3,196. The balance of 804,
which the writer couldn't see were engaged
preparing Independence dinners. Nearly
all returned early to virtuous couches and
were happy.
Last week there were seen in the fields a
large number of buggers, bugging bugs from
potato tops.
A Greens‘ Farms man and a man from
Brooklyn. met in the village Monday even-
ing, July 3. The liquor they drank caused
them to disagree and a row followed but, it
beingfithe night before the Fourth Enobody
thought it strange. One had a good sized
streak cut from his check with a knife, and
the gothcr got a sort of a cleaver gash in the
shoulder. Two quarts of gore or more were
spilled before the wounded wound up the
fight; no arrests.
Boys couldn’t get into Christ Church in
the regular way 4th of July a. m., so they
pawcd up the _ great :oakl tree to reach the
roof, following the lightning rod to the bel-
fry. Passing a strong cord through the
window blind they made fast to the bell
tongue, descended, jand, at a safe distance
from the church banged away t 0 their hearts
content.
Two Cross Highway men shot at each
other with revolvers Wednesday, and one of'

Mr. P. S. Sanford in, company with his
father-iu-law Dr. Keys, and two or three
others drew a seine west of Cedar Point at 2
o’clock Thursday morning and captured 17
bass, the largest of which weighed 37 pounds.
The presence of such fish in our river is en-
couraging to those who hold that our waters
are equal to any in New England as afford-
ing sport for piscators. The weight of the
catch exceeded 100 pounds. The fish were
forwarded to Fulton Market, New York.
Apropos of the above, Mr. Sanford has
drawn on paper a profile of the 7% pound
black fish caught at Billy's Point Rocks re-
cently by Mr. Converse, of New Haven, and
will mace it in a frame.
Mr. James R. Nichols, writing from Ocean
Beach, N. J., to his mother, Mrs. R. .
Nichols, of this place, than describes _ his
experience at the Long Branch railroad acci-
dent. “One week ago to-day I left here for
my usual trip to the city feeling bright and
well, and in two hours time was brought back
more dead than alive, bruised all over my
body and limbs, head cut open and battered
as if it had been taken for a football. I was
put to bed and here I have been ever since.
I lost about a pint of blood from the cut in
my head. When the car went overthe bridge,
Mr. Bollcs and I were sitting together, I was
next to the window. He held on to the back
of a seat in front, an held the arm of my
own seat. , Both seats gave way and we went
into the water with alterrific crash. We
went entirely under water and when I came
up I couldn’t tell how it happened. Two
men opposite us were killed. When we got
on our feet, I looked up and found the win-
dow over our heads closed, I managed to get
on the back of a broken seat and raise it.
When I crawled to the side of the car, I was
a sight to behold, face. shirt. collar and un-
der-clothes saturated with blood. One Of the
iirstflmcn I saw was General Grant being
helped out of the smoking car. I shall come
out all right but shall probably be confined
here a week or ten days longer. The sur-
geon of the N. J. Central R. R. was here to
see me Monday. accompanied by the attorney
of the road. I presume they are anxious to
settle damages and came for. that purpose.
I declined to see them. I Wish first to as-
certain in am in any way permanently. in-
jurcd. I have had many visitors, letters
and telegrams congratulating the on getting
off alive."
The late William A. Lee. drowned Monday
July 3d in the Hudson river near Nyack,

How About that Beef?
A few years since while on a down east
excursion with‘a party.of gentlemen, one of
our number, then quite elderly, related many
“musing anecdotes of the olden time, includ-
ing some of the campaign anecdotes _of the
notable“"l‘ippecauoe and Tyler too," craze
of 1840, at which time he said “log cabins."
and “hard cider" were as plentiful as flies in
an empty sugar barrel on the sidewalk in a
hot summer’s day. Our elderly friend had
been a noted amateur singer and still gave
his songs with good effect. Oife of the old
campaign songs he sang for us, had the head-
ing we have given this article and in the song
the working men were promised two dollars
a. day and roast beef" if one of the party can-
didstes were elected, and in the chorus the
words “how about that beef". were repeated
after each verscand our musical friend reu-
dercd them with extreme unctlou. It ital
suggested itself to us that if a presidential
election were now pending, and this old song
revived, and if the voters were promised.
roast beef, that the sum of two dollars per
day would have to be considerably increased
that is, if the laborer had to buy his roast
beef, for any housekeeper will testify that
with only a moderate family, that the two
dollars would all be used up for beef, leav-
ing nothing for trimmings and supper and
breakfast. The question which is now so
often asked, what is the cause of the present
high price in beef? we will endeavor to
answer briefly. .
The causes are three ;. first, our people
consume too much beef; second, they do
not use good judgment in the parts of beef
they purchase, and third, there is a class of
speculators, knoWu as middle men, who buy
from the cattle raisers and control the mar-
kets, at Chicago,BufialO, Albany. That our
people consume too much beef is acknowl-
edged by all competent writers upon the sub-
ject, it being estimated that the increased
consumption for the last thirty years, has
more than four-folded the population. Beef
as a nutrimeut is one of the most expensive
dishes found on our tables, and especially so.
since all seek to buy only tenderloin. or sir-
loin for steaks, and the choicest ribs for
lean parts are seldom touched. ‘
If our readers will try the “Hamburgh
steaks,” thefwill find them more nutritious
and better than sirloin or tenderloin, far
cheaper and more palatable.
Let the people determine to use less beef,
say one half less, for two or three months,
and there can be no doubt but that the price
will come down so that we all can afiord to
use it immoderatiou. The great cause of
the present high prices for meats, is the
speculating middle men who buy up and
control the market, and can get up a corner
whenever they see fit, aided as they are by
the banks in the produce selling cities, and
their corresponding banks in New York.
As an instance of this, reference need only
be made to the recent failure of a Buffalo
Bank, whose oflicers have long been engag-
iu western produce.
There is no western produce of food that is
not bought and sold daily at the various
produce exchange: at the west, and in New
York City, in immense quantities, where the
seller does not own, or the buyer does not
expect ,to receive the article he offered and
bid for, it being simply a bet on the price
at a given future day. That Congress
should pass a stringent law,invalidatiug such
contracts, and imposing a heavy penalty for
parties making them, seems to be generally
asked for; and we feel assured that such a
cOursc wmild cheaper: to the consumer, most
articles of food, from ten tto twenty years.

Mrs. Cramcr, Jennie Cramer's mothers, is

She denies that she was guilty of buy impru-
deuce which could have led to J euuie's death.
and explains that the girl went on the street
so frequently by order of hers physician. If
she were a man, she says, she would horse-

think Jennie died on Thursday night. “She
died on Friday night and the Malleys and

if she wanted to die that way don’t you sup-
dic among her friends. I know J ennie’s na-
ture better than anybody else and I know if
she was going to commit suicide she would
come right home and die here and not. go
