CITY OF WEST NORWALK.

Public improvements have commenced.
Our seminary of learning, commonly called
a school house, is being thoroughly cleansed,
(it was sadly needed,) and its exterior paint-
ed a lovely color, with brown edges. The.
fence which protects the house from the east
and north blasts of wind, has been thorough-
ly propped up, and it now looks as substantial
as a coal yard. .

We are continually having changes with
city residents. This week we lose by remov-
al to Darien, one of our citizens and a town
officer, W. C. Selleck.

Our community was startled and pained on
Thursday last by the report that Mr. LeGrand
Johnson, one of our oldest and most respect-
ed residents, had been seriously injured, near
the railroad bridge, at Whistlevilleuso called.
Upon repairing to the scene we learned that
while crossing the bridge the oxen took fright
at an approaching train on the N. Y., N. H.
& H. Railroad, and ran across the bridge, up
a steep bank, upsetting the cart on to Mr.

Johnson, and he was dragged and rolled some

10 or 15 feet. 'Mr.Hawley Seymour, who was

working at Palmer 85 Co’s Hat Shop, did not

see the occurrence, but was the first to reach
the scene of the accident, and finding that
Mr. J. was badly hurt, at the‘ wounded man’s
request, placed his head on a sheaf of green

corn stalks, and went immediately for a doc-
tor. 0ther.aids had come and as soon as pos-

sible he was removed to a private house

when he received the kindest attention of the

lady occupants, and the operatives from Pal-

mer & Co's factory.. An examination was

soon made, and he was removed to his home,

where their family physician, Dr. Sands, was

called, and it was found impossible .theu to

make a thorough examination, it being so dif-

ficult to move him. His condition has been

about the same until Sunday, when after an
examination, Dr. Sands gave his opinion that
no bones were broken, but his body was
dreadfully'bruised, and internal injuries are
feared. At this writing, Monday, he seems
as comfortable as could be expected, but the
crises is not passed, and should he recoved,

it will be almost a miracle. ' '
The funeral of the child of .Mr. 65 Mrs.
Frank Hoyt, was attended at the house of
Mr. Chauncey Street, and the remains inter-

red in the old cemetery at Darien.

about our village and noting the features of
its charming landscapes. -

The Tobacco Nuisance.

Upon reading the arTlclo in the Christian
Union of last week, in behalf Of those who,
like myself, do not wished to be smoked. it
occurred to me that there are others who
better deserve your notice than the smokers
of low degree who are met with upon Coney
Island steamers and in street' cars. I am a
graduate of YaleCollego. and in J unc last I
attended the Commencement and reunion of
my class. At the business meeting of my
class a large number of clas'smatos smoked,
The cigars were furnished and distributed
by one of the professors of the college. It
was not asked whether the smoking was
agreeable to all present. The meeting was
in one of its recitation rooms of the college .
At the Alumni dinner, which was presided
over by the President of the college, many
of the recent graduates began smoking while
a large large number of the alumni were
still eating. President Porter nllOwod the
smoking to go on. In last term bill before
graduation l was charged for Commence-
ment dinners a sum which I suppose was
the estimated value of the Commencement
dinners I would be likely to eat to the and
of life. I remember that Mr. Edward C.
Herrick, the treasurer, told me that such
was the case. It seems to me that college,
as an incident to its contract to furnish din-
ners, is bound to furnish a decent place to
eat them in . YALENsis.

O
Crushed in the Ice.

LONDON, Aug. 20.—The steamer Hope,
commanded by Sir Allen Young, C. B.,
which left here in J une last in search of the
crew of the steamer Eira, has arrived at
Peterhead with the entire crew of that- ves-
sel. The Hope picked them up in Matotsh-
kin Straits, Nova Zembla, on August 3, they
having lost their ship off Franz Josef Land
and journeyed in boats to the straits through
the ice. Leigh Smith, commander of the
Eira expedition, gives the following account
of its experiences: , .

“On July 13, 188i. we steamed through
the packed ice, and ten days later sighted
Franz Josef Land. We proceeded toward
Cape Ludlow, which was close to the ck,
to the northward. On August 2, 188 , we
went up to Nightingale Sound,-and thence
to Eira Harbor, and erected a storehouse. 0n
the 16th we started cast to look for the Jean-
nette, but were unable to pass Berent’s Hook.
On An t 21st the Eira got nipped between
a land 0e and pack ice a mile east of Cape
Flora, and sank before we were able to save
many stores.

"We built a but on Ca ‘ Flora of turf and
stones, and covered it w th sails. We win-
tered there, and during the whole time no
signs of scurvy appeared. Twenty-nine wal-
rus and thirty-six bears were killed and eaten.
We left Cape Flora on June 21, 1882, in four
boats, sailed eighty miles without seeing any
ice, and reached Nova,Zembla on August 2d.
When the Eira was nipped the leak gained
so rapidly that in two hours after it had been
discovered it was necessary to abandon the
ship. Hardly had the last man left the ves-
sel when the ice east], and the Eira rapidly
sank. A tent was first erected on the ice
and the house was subsequently built.”

Electric Lights for Hell Gate.

WASHINGTON, Aug. Iii—General Duane,
the ofiicer in charge of lighthouse matters in
New York will be instructed in a few days to
expend the appropriatiOn of 820,000 made by
Congress to erect electric lights at Hell Gate.
It is proposed to erect two skeleton iron
towers from 150 to 200 feet hi b, one at Hal-
lett’s Point undone at Negro cad on Wards
Island, or such place as may be determined
by the Lighthouse Board. be light shown

Annoyed by the criticism to which h
has been subjected because of his vote in
favor of the river and harbor bill, Congress-
man Phelps writes a long letter to the Hart-
ford Tt‘mes defending his course in the mat-
ter, and declaring that he voted forthe hill
“in the conscientious discharge of a public
duty.” The closing paragraph of Judge
Phelps's letter deserves the yreful reading

of the editorial profession : . .
“Pardon me for saying in conclusion,
what upon reflection you will frankly admit,
that it is very easy and far too common for
the correspondents and editors of newspapers
to trifle with the reputation of other men, as
if-ihey were the proper playthings of their
malice, prejudice or caprice, and to denounce
others as log-rollers and corruptionists whose
character for integrity is at least equal to
their own; and it is infamously wicked and
cowardly to causelessly and recklessly cir-
culate such libels among their readers, when
a great part of them might never see the con-

tradiction or retraction."

Messrs. 'C. I. Hood 8:. 00., the Sarsaparilla
men, ,have issued a series of four pretty
chrome placques. The following good story
is told in connection with the same:

A little Maine girl, who was bound to have
one of the placques that were given away in
the drug stores to customers who expended
a quarter of a dollar and upward, after being
driven away for not having the necessary
change, finally walked in and asked and paid
for eight postage stamps, and one postal
card. She got the placque, but the clerk is
not yet reconciled.

A month or two ago the mayor of Polk
City, Iowa, was killed by some person or
persons unknown. Shortly afterward a
mob, which probably contained the .real
murderers, fixed upon one Willis Delaine as
the guilty party, so they hanged him on a
tree until he confessed the crime; a man
with a rope around his neck will generally
confess anything, no matter who is the real
criminal, if by so doing he can escape being
choked Ito death. Mr. Delaine was there-
upon taken to jail; he was afterward brought
to trial and acquitted; he now sues members
of the mob for twenty-five thousand dollars
damages.

The people of Dobbs Ferry, New York,
have suffered much from Sunday excursion
parties of New York radius, and they have
decided not to allow any more such parties to
land there. A brewing company in the vil-
logo was prohibited from entertaining the ex-
cursionlsts, and it brought action to restrain
the authorities from interferring with its b'us-
iness. The Supreme Court of New York
has decided against the company. Judge
Barnard holds that as'the beer makers induce
drunkenness and disorder by inviting to their
premises excursionists and others, it is only
a lawful exercise of police power on the part
of the village authorities that the landing of
parties on Sunday is prevented.

The New York Sun tells the following
shark story and locates it of! Norwalk :—

While William B. Seward, a Roxbury
hotel-keeper, was fishing of! Norwalk harbor
the other day, be hooked a shark, using the
boat’s painter for a line. When the fish
felt the iron he started for the Soundpdrag-
ging the boat and anchor after him. He
soon became exhausted and Mr. Seward
pulled him close to the boat and lodged a
rifle ball in his brain. Then be towed him
tojthe shore—a tough job, for Mr. Seward
weighs nearly 250 pounds, and the shark

 

 

was eighteen feet long.

Missionaries Representing Mel'-
. chants.

F. G. Ensign, Superintendent of the Amer-
ican Sunday School Union in the Northwest,
says: "One of our business men put a‘ mis-
sionary into the field, some four years since,
at an annual expense of $800.. The mission-
ary has established 88 new Sunday schools
‘wiih 289 teachers and 2,374 scholars. From
these schools have been reported 254 con-
versions. .While this business man cannot
leave his business to preach Christ to those
neglected children, he sends a representative
to do the work for him. This example has
been followed by others. Several business
firms now carry a Sunday school missionary
on ‘their pay rolls. To one such firm the
missionary reports 27 new schools formed
with 115 teachers and 626 scholars and 60
conversions the first year.” ' i

A well-known mefchantin New York pays
$1,200 per annum to this work; an equally
known banker in the same city has a mis-
sionary :in Arkansas, and “An Unknown
Friend” has two missionaries working for
him in Virginia, where. he resides.

As indicating how workers cleave to the
work while contributors cleave to the cause
of the American Sunday School Union, it
may be mentioned that an individual giver in
the city of New York has provided over
$22,000 for the support of one missionary,
who has been spared to serve for an extra-
ordinary term of years.

Other contributors are providing individ-
ually for the support of their respective
missionaries; and with all the pressing claims
of the different church boards ' upon‘ them,
leading churches of the city make a place in
their schedule of benevolence for an annual
collection in the behalf of the American
Sunday School Union. So says the Fifi -
cighthannuatreport,Naw York Department.

A pretty story about the Princess Eugenie,
sister of the king of Sweden: She recently
sold her diamonds to raise funds to complete
a hospital in which she is interested. When
visiting this hospital, after its completion, a
sufioring inmate wept tears of ratitude as
she stood by his side, and the rincess ex-
‘claimed: “Ah! now I- see my diamonds
again.” ’

Coriolanus, noble Roman,

Wouldn’t tell ’em they were brilliant ;
Wouldn’t tell ’em they were valiant;
Wouldn’t. kiss the Roman babies:
Said he’d see their dads in Hades
Ere he'd buss the dirty youngsters
Of a horde of swilling bungsters:
Said no ofilce he would fawn for:
No! his toga he’d first pawn for '
What he needed: no he wouldn’t
Give 'em tafiy; no, he wouldn’t 1
Thus it was the noble Roman,
Fearless, peerless Coriolanus ;
Just as might have been expected,
Never came to bevelected.

AN‘AET Taxman—An aged New York
artist named Seymour claims to have dis-
covered a genuine portrait of Peter Stuy-
vesant, supposed to have been painted in
Holland in 1643, when the future director-
general of the Colony of New Netherlands
was a handsome young 'man of thirty years.
The picture is on a walnut panel found

building in which the artist has his studio.
He was about to split the board to make
picture wedges, when be detected the Out-
lines of a portrait'through the coat of paint,
under which it was concealed. He removed
the paint and brought out a beautiful por-
trait. In thsru per right-hand corner of the
panel is a '3 old with the inscription,

theory is that the portr‘ait was covered in
this way to evade the excessive customs
duties which were at this time imposed on
works of art, and that it was thrown aside
when received, and has been dealt with as a
useless piece of rubbish ever since. He values
the “find" at $5,000. '

Hay Fever.

For twenty-five years I have been
seveme afflicted with Hay Fever. While
suflering intensely I was induced through
Mr. Tiehenor’s testimonial, to try Ely’s
Cream Balm. The immediate eflect was
marvelous. I have been enabled to perform
my pastoral duties without the slightest in-
convenience. Have been exposed tO heat,
droughts and dust, and have escapeda return
attack. I pronounce Eln’s Cream Balm a
cure for Hay Fever. WILLIAM T. CARR,

relief from its use, I most cordially recom-
mend it as the best of all the many remedies

THE CQURSE 0F INSTRUCTION

Includes all branches usually taught in Semina-
rics and Schools of the first rank. The "Common
Branches,” however are given prominence, as
forming the “essentials” of a sound education,
and the too rapid pomotlon into advanced studies
is carefully guarded against as seriously marring
the pupil’s true pro rcss. It will be the conscien-
tions endeavor or t a teacher to secure to the
pupils the advanta cool a thorough practical and
ornamental educa on, and no opportunity will be
neglected to inspire in the sohoo .an earnestldesire
for knowledge. During the ensuin your, accr-
tain and liberal portion of time will a devoted to
Mocutronary Lessons, neadin gs and Becitntions;
and each pupil drilled in correct pronunciation,
distinct utterance and natural expression as bein

necessary to the accomplished reader. Lambert s
Anatomical Plates will be used in the Physiology
classes. To. Mathematics, English Composition.
and Rhetorical excreises, special attention is
given as the discipline and practical benefits of
these branches are important in all spheres oflife.

PRIMARY DEPARTMENT.

A large, well-lighted room supplied with black-
boards, and handsome new maps, is set apart for
the smaller pn ils. Children from four to ten
years of a e wi I be received in this department
and caret ly and lovingly taught such fundamen-
tal knowcdge as their minds can grasp. In addi-
tion to this, they will receive dni instruction in
singing; and as such drills have can found es-
gecially attractive and roiltable t9 the little ones,

oncert Exercises in x. Authentic, Geog-
raphy and Callsthcnics will form part of the every
day work. Three recesses in the open air will be
given daily— two in the morning and one in the
pftcrnoon—and. at such times a teacher will be
in constant attendance.

MUSIC. '

Faithful care is bestowed upon pu ils in Music.
A taste for Classical Compositions w: lbe cultiva-
ted, and regular and careful practice required.
None but excellent instruments are used. so that

paired. A limited number of pupils who wish to
study this branchglono wil be received, and
cheerful music roomsand fine pianos are devoted
to the use of such as desire the advantage of
practice at the school. .
