CITY OF WEST NORWALK.
If continual progress is made, the repairs
to our castaway bridge will be completed by
New Year’s day. It is now some fifty days
since teams have crossed it. Two of the
sleepers are on, and another almost ready.
Great attention has been given to the rc-
moval of a large ash tree which supported
one side of the abutment. An effort was
made to blow it up with .powder, but it
failed; then one or two of the smaller roots
were cut, leaving the main one untouched,
and a span of horses-hitched to it to draw it
down. It would not “ down ” worth a cent.
If the work is done by the day the workmen
have a good job.

Tuesday morning a man who rents a
barn in the centre of the village. found the
remams of a tallow candle, which had burned
out, in dangerous proximity to a lot of hay.
Asthe person referred to has no use for
candles, and never took one into the place,
he is thoroughly convinced it was an attempt
to burn the building. If such was the case
and the fiendish act had been successful,
this town would probably have seen one of
the largest fires it ,has yet experienced.

WESTPORT.
The night before election, Mr. Le Roy
Meeker 'was on hisway home from the vil-
lage. He was alone, and when near Mr.
Miller Ketchum’s house. received a blow
behind the right ear fro‘ma heavy stick
wielded'by a man whose face he had not
time to see. The blow produced insensibility
and he fell from his wagon to the—ground,
where he was robbed of some $30 in bills.
Next morning on visiting the scene of attack
a pool of blood was seen, and Mr. Meeker’s
pocketbook found containing a gold piece
which the scoundrel had overlooked. The
club used in this encounter is at Lewis' meat
market. ‘ _
The Standard has the following: "A
Westport gentleman who never votes the
democratic ticket refused to cast a ballot for
J. C. Taylor, republican candidate for repre-
sentative, for the reason that, some years
ago Taylor had bought a tract of salt meadow
of him for a small sum, $45 or $50, and
shortly afterwards sold it ' for $400, and re-
fused to divide up the enormous profit.
This being the case can .it be wondered at
that Westport failed to keep down the demo-
cratic majority ?"
There are about 900 names on Westport’s
voting lists. Of these, by estimate. 534 are
democrats and 360 republicans. Tuesday,
but 540 votes were polled, leaving 851 per-
sons who did not vote at all. .
If Westportis a “no license" town, and

of being adopted. .

take place at the bride’s residence, Mr.
Frank Mead of Norwalk, to cater, at the
conclusion of which the bridal party will
start on their Wedding tour. Their future
residence will be Waterbury. By this mar-
riage a coincidence occurs. The four lead-
ing characters in our ama‘teur“Pinafore,”
Miss Elsie Lees (Josephine,) Mr. J. Taylor
Goodsell (Sir Admiral Porter,) Miss Alice
Lees (Buttercup) and Miss Meeker (Hebe,)

Music hath charms, it is true, and, should

Rev. Nr. Har, who is a brother-in-law of
Secretary Folger, preached his farewell ser-
mon at the Congregational chcrch, Sunday.
From the words he uttered could be deduc-
ed what all who have knowu him will testi-
fy to, that, his acts whether of ministration
in ,sanctuary or household, the performance
of duty has been paramount. He leaves to-
day for Florida.
Organist Goodsell of the Congregational

Four highway robbers dismounted from
horses one night last week, broke into the
lower part of Jeliif’s store opposite the de-
pot, at Saugatuck, and proceeded to ransack
the place. Persons passing saw the horses
and heard noises in the building. They gave
the alarm, but before assistance could arrive
the men rushed out, jumped into their sad-
dles and galloped off in the direction of Nor-
walk. They took away afew bottles of lager
beer only. ’

“And why is this thus ?"
Stratford Republicans have nothing to be
ashamed of. Had the rest of the state done
as well, there would have been a diflcrent
story to relate.
The democrats of Stratford concede that
the republicananade slight gains in the town.
Well, they did. Last year the Republicans
elected a representative by one majorly; this
year they give the state ticket 101 majority,
Gas for Congress 113 majority, and elect
their representatives by 71 majprity. Has
any other ' town done betten? The re-
sult was accomplished by hard work, not
only on election day, but weeks before, and
a thorough canvass was made. Out of a
total registration of 420 in West Stratford,
350 votes were polled. A large majority of
the 76 stay-at-homes were republicans. .

Opposition to Chicago Beef._
ALBANY, N. Y., Nov. 10.—T. C. Eastman
of New York; W.'H. "Monroe; W. H.
Vanderbilt and A. & W. ArnOId of Chicago,
Ill., have formed a company with areported
capital of one million dollars, to oppose the
Chicago dressed beef enterprise of Ham-
mond & Co. and Swift & 00., of Chicago.
They will open depots in every city where
the other firms have agents now, and will
sell the beef brought from Chicago in the
American Refrigerator Company cars at a
price that will just cover expenses. This is
regarded as a move to crowd out the dressed
beef trade in the interests of the live-stock
business of the east.

HALIFAX, Nov. 7.—Abont 12 o’clock last
night, while all were asleep, a fire broke out
in the basement of the Poor Asylum. The
origin of the fire is not known. Smoke from
smouldering wood spread throughout the
building, causing the utmost terror among
the 400 or 500 inmates. As there was no
immediate danger, no haste was made to re-
move the inmates; but an alarm was sounded
and the reels were run out of the engine . ~
house. A few firemen and citizens rushed
to the building, and found smoke issuing
from all the windows, but saw no flames.
In the west wing old women and children
were seen at the windows crying for rescue,
and it was feared they would throw them-
selves out. A-sturdy axeman with a few
vigorous blows knocked the door in. The
stair-ways were crowded, and out cameo
procession of men women and children. .
But the persons in the upper wards of that
wing were almost helpless. The firemen
hastened up stairs and willing hands were
soon getting the blind, the bait and the lame,
down the winding stairs. Thus that wing
was emptied. 1n the mean time the flames
in the basement spread to .the base of the
long elevator shaft, which reaches to the top
of the main building. The draught here
swept the flames upward with tremendous
force, and ma few seconds the heaviest part
of the confiagration was in the top of the
‘ main building. The story just under the
caves in this building was used as a hospital,
and in it were about seventy'patients most
of them perfectly helpless. The fire was
now burning fiercely in the hospital, and
above it the heat cracked the roof till the
lead poured down in streams of brilliant fire,
and the slates flew in every direction in
deadly showers, rendering any near approach
to the building almost certain death. Not-
withstanding this, there were hundreds who
would willingly have entered, as indeed
several did, but without guidance they could
do nothing in the immense building. Lad-
ders roved to short. Far abo e the roar of
the ames and the crack of e bursting
slates were heard the cries of the patients,
who were roasting to- death. Some were
seen to dash themselves against the windows
and cling to the sashes till their strength was
exhausted or their hands were burnt off, and
they fell back into the cauldron of flames.
As day dawned the fire had exhausted it-
self, snd nothing but the bare walls and tall
turrets remained. Later in the day the old
provincial penitentiary was secured, and is
being fitted with stoves, bedding, &c., to
accommodate as many as possible. The old
skating rink in the public gardens is also
being fitted up to receive some of them.
The poorhouse was erected in 1868. _ It was
owned by the province and city in the pro-
portion of two-thirds and one-third respec-
tively. It cost $83,000 and was insured for
50,000. Some fragments of charred bodies
were recovered, but no extensive search has
been or can with safety yet be made among
the ruins; So far as ascertained, thirty-one
persons were burned to death—eight men
and twenty-three women.

FIRE IN BREWSTER.
On Monday night, February 23rd, 1880, a
serious fire in the business portion of Brew-
'ster destroyed the town hall, the Standard
office, L. H. Roberts’ building and other
structures, burning everything in its way
along the street on the west side, until it
reached an old hat factory building where it
was stayed and the factory saved.
The flames were seen from here at 10
o’clock, when a dispatch for help was re-
ceived. Warden Fry sent Washington Hook
and Ladder Co. and Kohanza Hose Com-
pany, No. 2. The machines were loaded on
two flat cars and were sent over by one of
the freight trains running west, which arriv-
edlinkBrewster at 20 minutes past eleven
o’c oc . ‘
As the factory-building was the, utmost .
western structure the fire spread eastward.
The next building was a two story frame
house owned byiJOhn Little, tailor. This
quickly caught. and was soon enveloped in
flames. Adjoining was the pretty town hall,
a two-story brick structure. It was hoped
to save the hall, but the fire was too fierce
for the obstacles put in its way and it was
soon afire.
The fire was brought under control short-
ly after eleven o’clock, Or about the time of
the arrival of the Danbury boys.
The total loss by the fire is $40,000; total
insurance is $30,000. ‘
0f the sufferers at the present fire several
were losers at the other fire. These were
Mr. Addis, Of the Standard, whose office
was totally destroyed in 1880; John Little
whose loss was $7,000; Nathan Hancock,
loss $2,000, and A. F. Lobdell, loss $4,000.
The cause of the fire is not known, but is
believed to have been incendiary.
There have been four fires in the village in
as many weeks. A reward of $1,500, was
offered last week for the detection of the
evident fire-bug. _

tions, and in their homes and places of wor-
ship, and in such ways as may best accord
with their habits and preferences, to express
their gladness and gratitude, and offer to
Almighty God the incense and sacrifice of
praise. Especially let us rejoice in the homes
of New England, in which we live; let us
deepen our sense of their sanctity,~and con-
template with pride and gratitude the na-
tional character which they have formed,
and the spirit which has come forth from
them to walk abroad.
Gathered” in these homes, bright with
festal joys, let us recount the heroic deeds,
patient sacrifices and lofty aims of our fath-
ers, and from their story catch new inspira-
tions of patriotism and piety softened by
the remembrance of the dead, let us cherish
for the living a more tender charity. Seated
around our well-filled tables, let us not
forget to share with the solitary and the
poor.
From these family scenes, and experiences
let us derive new conceptions and brighter
hopes of our heavenly home, and at the pure
and holy altar of home life and love let us
kindle anew our devotion to our duty, our
county and our God. _
