CITY OF WEST NOR WALK.
The copious rain of last week, has been the
chief topic of conversation, and alarm. The
rain of Saturday filled the streams so full,
that at night-fall mill ownersbecame alarm-
ed and some watched their property with a
good deal of soiicitude ~until’after midnight.
Beside washing the roads-especially the
hills, making deep gullies every where, the
flood washed away the abutment of the
bridge near Johnson & Son’s mill, the rocks
and stones being washed down the stream,
like so many. chips. j The bridge on what is
called the “Rock road” is very badly damaged
andmabyofthe smaller bridges, will need to
be taken up and cleared of the stones, rub-
bish and sand which has washed in,_;causing
the water to overflow, ruining the road on
both sides. The most serious damage to in-
dividuals was the distraction of Bates’ Bro's
Mill, caused by the water breaking through
under it, washing away the center foundation
and parts supporting the floor, causing it to
fall in the center, carrying into the stream,
the tools, benches, and a large quantity of
material for sieves, ready for use. Many of
the parts of machinery were washed more
than a mile down stream-where found, much
of it, however did not stop, before it reached
Long Island sound. ' The loss is a very seri-
ous one to the young and enterprising‘firm.
The damage tothe bridges and roads will
necessitate the expenditure of a large amount
of money by the town, but the chronic grum- .
blers will lay it all to the Selectmen.

Rev. B. J. Relyea andhisfrieud President
Horace Staples, of the First National Bank,
left here September 4th for a western trip.
Mr. Staples' outline of the journey is of
interest. He stopped at Niagara Falls which
he had not seen in .55 years, surveyed the
objects on both sides of the river including
the house where Princess Louise was
stopping. Ho did’nt see her though there
was a light in the window and he supposed
she was at home. From Buffalo he took'
the India of the Lake Superior Transit
Company for Duluth touching at Erie,
Cleveland, Detroit, :Port Huron, Sault Ste
Marie, Marquette, Houghton, Hancock and
Ashland, the total distance being 2,000
miles. 0n Lake Superior the weather gen-
erally was beautiful—so was the scenery
everywhere, but one days sea arose mightier
than any ever seen on Long Island Sound.
A dozen or so of the passengers were sick.
He was a little aflected but having some
doctor stuff on hand, was not long troubled.
He visited the copper mines near Duluth,
took specimens, and was impressed with the
general mightiness of everything in that
region.;Duluth he went via Northern Pacific
Railroad to Minneapolis. and saw saw mills
where power is taken from St. Anthony’s
Falls, the greatest utilized power in.the
world, and which are turning out lumber in
quantity which cannot be calculated. From
thence to Milwaukee, thence to Chicago,
where he visited many objects of interest,
chief among them as making an impression
being the cattle yards where a million dol-
lars worth of cattle and hogs are slaughtered
for market daily. From Chicago to New
York by way of Pittsburgh, and home
which he reached during that drenching rain
Saturday night. Mr. Staples desires to say
that throughout the trip he has been under
the special care of Mr. Relyea who has min-
istered to his wants, explained what he
could’nt hear, and much of that he couldn't
see,—thst the character of his company is
sufileient to prove that the trip was one of
observation, and, that, as he did not buy a
dollar's worth of mining stock or resl estate,
it was not one of speculation. The entire
journey covered was not less than 4000 miles.

Stcam Whistling at South Nos--
walk.
A South Norwalk correspondent says :—
"Since my communication last week with
reference to locomotive steam whistling, a
report of the Railroad Commissioners has
been published in our local papers, which
report or finding, if published in full, is cer-
tainly surprising to say the least. The pe-
tition of our City Council to the Commis-
sioners, says: “That numerous complaints
have been made to them by petition and oth-
erwise of the unnecessary whistling of loco-
motives on the railroad tracks of the New
York, New Haven & Hartfordraiiroad and
on the Danbury 85 Norwalk railroad at cer-
tain points within said city limits,” and the
petition asks for relief. In the finding of
the commissioners the only reference to
steam whistling is in the last paragraph of
the finding, which is as follows: “And we
would particularly recommend said Danbury
do Norwalk R. R. Co. to direct the train men
of their night freight from Norwalk to 'dis-
pense with all unnecessary and prolonged
steam' whistling and shouting.” Net a
word about trains on the consolidated road.
Upon inquiring of the Superintendent of the
Danbury St Norwalk road, we find no steam
whistling has been allOwed or practiced .by
their train men for the past four months. It
would seem by this that some curious evi-
dence must have been given before the Com-
missionors, or the recommendmust have been
intended for the consolidated road whose
whistles are blowing long and prolonged
blasts morning, noon and night. The
whistling on this road now commences when
the local 5:50 train has crossed the tracks
after leaving their round house, about 5:40
when two long blasts are blown to call in
fiagmen, on‘e of whom is in plain sight and
the other within hearing of the tsp of the
engine bell. This call was until within the
last two months made by the Harlem freight
which came half an hour before the 5:50
train, but was discontinued by request of
effort seems to be made by the conductor of
this train to do his full average hour's switch-
ing across Main and Washington streets with
the least possible noise. This call for flag-
men is heard often during the. day, and in
the evening the two local passenger, trains
which go into night quarters about 7:30 and
8:30 blow two long and furious blasts which
may be heard miles away. In addition to
this many times each day and often up to
and past midnight the freight. trains on the
road blow furious blasts for switchmen, and
one train due here about 11:00 P . M. switch-
es cars from the siding east of the depot,
crossing Main and Washington streets fre-
quently. with whistle blowing and steam
blowing off, making a perfect bedlam of the
neighborhood. It was with a view of stop-
ping such blasts as these that the petition
was sent to the City Council, and why the
facts were not laid before the Commissioners
is inexplicable. That all such blowing can
be dispensed with, there is ample evidence,
in other places where it has been stopped by
the Commissioners. We do not believe the
ofiicers of the Consolidated road desire to
annoy and distress people living , near the
line of theirer and we are sure that if the
Commissioners were informed as to the true
state of the case, they would abate the uni-
sance without delay. . That this furious
blowing of locomotive whistles is detriment-
alto the sick all of our physicians testify,
and it is to be hoped that the railroad compa-
nies will take further and efiiclent action.”

The‘Danbnry Parade.
The weather,eariy last Thursday morning,
was very stormy, but the firemen decided to
take their chances and go to Danbury. They
were glad they did, for the rain stopped, and
the parade proved the grandest affair of the
kind ever held in the State. The Norwalk and
South Norwalk companies, with the excep-
tion of the Putnam Hose, were all in line,
and their fine appearance and good conduct
honoredjhe town. The procession embraced
19iBands, 13 Drum Corps, 14 Truck Compa-
nies, 4 steamers. and 19 Hose Companies,
numbering by actual count, nearly 2,000
Leading features were Dods-
worth’s Band, the Moodus drum corps, Col.
Huss' boy drum corps, the best bands in the
State, the $6,000 Hose Carriage of Bingham-
ton, etc. The tents bad plates for 2,200 per-
sons, and the collation was well served, and
fully appreciated. Altogether it was a mag-
nificent affair. and Danbury may well be
pleased with tho;succes of the great under-
taking.

Supt. Moody, and it must be said that every
this vicinity last summer, published in 3W8
ey order has remained sixty days in a post-
office without payment being demanded the
postmaster shall send a printed notice to the
payee, if his address is known, informing him
of the fact and giving the name and address
of the remitter. The payee is requested by
the circular to present the corresponding or-
der for payment, if it is inhis possesfion, or,
if it has not been received, to obtain it if prae.
ticable from the remitter, and in the event of
its loss in transit or otherwise to suggest to
duplicate.
This circular is a new departure in the pol-
icy of the Money Order Division, and is one
that ought to have been made years ago.
Had it been adopted on the start, there
it of the money-order system the great sum
of over a million and a quarter of dollars,the
accretion of money orders remaining unpaid.
Not a dollar of this fund belongs to the
Government. It belongs to the people who
paid for orders, which, largely through the
defects of the postal system, did not reach
the persons to whom they were sent. It may
safely be said that nine-tenths of this sum
could have been made to reach the payers,
or could have been returned to the ~remitters,
had not a policy of concealment been adopt-
ed. Instead of seeking earnestly either to
pay the money to the payees or return it to
the remitters, a rule was adopted forbidding
a postmaster, under penalty of dismissal, to
furnish the very information now ordered to
be given by the new circular.

The honorable title of D. D. has been
worthily bestowed on the Rev. B. W. Chid-

faithful teaching of the Divine word entitles

ports: "The retrospect of forty-five years
spent in the missionary service of the Amer-
ican Sunday School Union is suggestive, and
the occasion of thanksgiving to God for
guidance, support and comfort in all my in-
bors. Ihave survived all my early associ-
ates in service and the officers of the society,
and; witnessed the steady growth of the
work into the departments, publication and
missionary, until with devout gratitude, I
can joyously exclaim, ‘ What hath God
wroughti' During the past year I have
preached 110 sermons, made 145 Sunday
school addresses, have written 297 letters,
and have traveled 14,500 miles." Long may
the bow of the veteran abide in strength for

opposition to any one of them has made
itself manifest in their own party, and after

practically certain. The IId District which
