Nellie Norris is now a Bridgeport
lady of color that once lived in this city
and is well known to the colored pop -
lation of Knight street. She has some
bad habits, one, that of carrying a
razor, which she showed Saturday
night she was proficient in the art of
wielding when she cut Aaron Jamison
deep under his left j uv.
Aaron is a gentleman of color and for
a long time more thanfriendly relations
have existed between ~Nellie and him-
self, but when the two met Saturday
night something had occurred. There
was some hot talk, when suddenly Nel-
lie reaghed down into her stocking and
quick as a flash made a lapse at Aaron’s
throat, but he dodged and caught the
razor with his jaw. Then he ran to
Knowlton street and hid in a barn op-
posite Armstrong’s factory.
Nellie pursued him, declaring she
would cut him until nothing more was
left of him to out. Some one tele-
phoned for the police, and two officers
hurried to the scene of the disturbance
with the patrol wagon.. They found
Nellie at the barn door trying to force
an entrance, and placed her under ar-
rest. Then they released Aaron from
his unpleasant predicament and took
them both to the central police station.
When Nellie was asked why she cut
Aaron, she said he called her a vile
name, and declared she would kill any
man who called her that. At this time
Aaron was standing close by her, and
before any one could divine her inten-
tion, she clenched her right fist, and
'with a straight-out-from-the-shoulder,
landed on Aaron’s uninjured jaw. She
was about to repeat the. proceeding
when she was seized by Officer Goulden
and forced into a cell in the women’s
department, in spite of quite a resist-
ance which she made, and all the time
declaring that she would yet have her
revenge on Aaron.
The usual crowd of sight-sears gath-
ered when the arrest was .made, and
among them were many colored people,
one of whom was “Buck” Taylor. He
appeared to be greatly pleased with the
whole proceeding, and laughed and
and sang: “Carve de coon, carve him
to de fat.”
When Nellie was first placed in the
patrol wagon she was not searched; but
before proceeding far, Officer Taylor
heard something drop, and at once con-
cluded it was a razor. '
The cut on Aaron’s jaw was to the
bone and nearly two inches long. Had
the razor struck a little lower his jugu-
lar would have been severed, and in
that event there would have been an-
other murder case for the next term
of the criminal superior court. Nellie
was arraigned before the city court this
morning to answer to a charge of as-
sault with intent to kill. That the
charge is not murder is no fault of hers.
The bond was fixed at $300.
Chicago’s Big Failure.
The Chicago Stock Exchange was
closed yesterday because of the failure
of Moore Brothers, promoters of the
Diamond Match and New York Biscuit
companies, whose liabilities are placed
it $8,000,000. It is announced to-day
that Chicago banks and capitalists will
bolster up the monster combine to save
its real properties from utter wreck.
‘ Much interest was excited here in
Norwalk because of this failure, as it
was quite generally known that a large
part of the fortune of the late William
G. Thomas of East avenue was invested
in this monster concern, and Mr. John
D. Kimmey is reported a stockholder.

Air Motor Cars A Success.
The use of compressed air as a means
of street car propulsion, has been tested
in New York and is pronounced a com-
plete success. These cars were seen all
day yesterday on the New Work Third

The car ran with remarkable smooth-
ness and stopped and started, with the
greatest case and without jolting pas-
sngers in the least degree.

WATER FOR THE CAMP.
Col. Louis B. Cheney. assistant quar-
termaster - general, Surgeon - General
George Austin Bowen, Secretary 0. A.
Lindsley of the State Board of Health,
and Prof. Herbert E. Smith, of the
Yale Medical School, have visited the
state ground at Niantic. The object of
the visit was principally to examine the
water supply at camp, test the pumps,
etc. Secretary Lindsley took away
samples of the water for analysis.
Last year there was some typhoid
fever among the members of Company
K, Fourth Regiment, and the band of
the regiment after camp. Some people
thought the disease originated from im-
pure water but it has always been con-
sidered that the water drawn from the
well pumps at the camp was free from
organic matter and of a superior quality.
It has been decided that the wash tubs
at the head of the company streets are
too near the pumps and therefore to
avoid possible pollution of the Water
they are to be removed to a uniform
distance of 15 feet from each pump.
Gov. Cofl‘in and Anjutant-General
Graham visited the camp ground, have
looked over the camp, and expressed
their appreciation of the work already
done under the immediate direction of
Capt. George A. Cornell, state armorer.
All the tents for the collated men have
been pitched and the camp is well ad-
vanced toward completion. The wharf
for the bathers on the east shore of the
camp is well along. It will branch out-
ten feet on each side. The bathing
houses 50 in number, each to accommo
date two men are being built on the
beach under the sea coast battery. The
bathers can wade out from them or run
along the wharf and take a deep water
plunge.
WERE FROM HATTERTOWN.
This morning as the train arrived at
the station from Danbur'y, aparty of
gentlemen stepped from a car and
scaled the flight of stairs leading from
the depot. They were at once identified
as “countrymen,” by reason of their
caput adornments, which consisted of
straw hats similar to those used by the
boys hereabouts in catching bait. But
their shirts covered hearts that thumped
in happy anticipation of a day on the
briny deep, and a chowdergon one of
the islands in the harbor. They had
among their other munitions of war a
pail lettered “for chowder only.” Neat-
ly packed in a basket labeled “bait”
were several “growlers.” To the ques-
tion “where are you going and what do
you propose doing?” put to “Chris.”
Quinn, a portion of the avalanche of
the good-looking and well behaved
party, a GAZETTE reporter was referred
to the “chaplain of the crowd” Rev.
,Mr. Teagarden, who said we are out
for fun, and I guess we will have it;
don’t you think so?” and he pointed
his finger at “Charley” Mason.
The party managed to get themselves
and their hats aboard a car on the
White‘line and rode to South Norwalk,
where it is understood they were to
board Captain Cutbill’s yacht “Nellie”
and take a sail on the Sound and later
enjoy a clambake and chowder.
PREPARINGHHIS REPORT.
Deputy Internal Revenue Collector
Sloan is preparing his report for July
and when he has it completed will com-
pare the list with .the one proceeding it.
The names which do not appear in the
new list will be checked and their
places will be visited for the purpose of
ascertaining if they are still in business.
If such is found to be the case they will
be obliged to settle with their old Uncle
Sam, which will be expensive, for he
will allow no excuse for failure to
comply with the law.
Mr. Sloan says that he does not ap-
prehend that he will find many delin-
quents, for he believed the law had
been pretty thoroughly complied with.
Some names which did not appear in the
new list caused no great surprise, for
the parties had probably gone out of
business.

Long Trip in One Day.
Walter Ferris, the well known rail-
road engineer of this city, is now run-
ning the..Berkshire express. The en-
gine and entire train, without any
change, runs direct from the Grand
Central depot to Pittsfield, Mass, and
returns in a. day. It gbes by the Dan-
bury division route. The distance for
the entire round trip is 322 miles. This
is the longest round trip operated any-
where on the Consolidated divisions.
The entire train crew only work three
days in the week, being relieved on al-
ternate days, as the long distance
makes the work very trying—Bridge-

JAMES" SExron assucns.
The Bridgeport Telegram prints the
following in reference to a business
man well known in Norwalk:
“There was genuine surprise expres-
sed among the business men last even-
ing upon receiving intelligence of the
assignment in insolvency of James Sex-
ton, Jr., and his wife, H. Elizabeth
Sexton, which was filed in the Probate
court late yesterday afternoon. The
assignment in both cases was made to
Ebenezer Burr. Judge Tallmadge has
appointeda hearing on the estate for'
Aug. 10 at 2 p. m.
“Mr. Sexton is the well-known gran-
ite cutter on Crescent avenue. He has
been engaged in the business ever since
he was‘a boy and succeeded James Sex-
ton, Sr., who was proprietor of the
same yard her a quarter of a century.
The exact (standing of the affairs of Mr'
Sexton is ”not known at' the present
writing. The failure is ascribed to the
fact that he has a large amount of-
money invested in finished stone work
now in the yards which he was unable
to dispose of, and also to the fact that
he has a large amount of capital out in
stone work; on which he has been un-
able to collect. It is probable that
when the affairs are settled the liabili-
ties will.not be greatly in excess of the
assets. When an effort was made to
interview r. Sexton last night he was
buisily engpged in looking over his af-
fairs and w'gs not prepared to make a
statement $yet.”

A bird scared up in the face of the sun-—
Oh, but the bird sang gloriously!—
With throb of bosom and flutter of wing,
In the rich, ripe glow of a. day in spring
When the bursting of blossoms had just
begun.
And thence: e: the hillside as fat: t:
see.
A bird soared up in the face of the sun— ’
Oh, but his song was a. thing to hear!
With heart attuned to a wild desire. ~
With the quiver of passion and pulse of fire,
And the bond of a soul that had well-nigh
won
The first of the golden outworka there. . ill
A bird’scared up in the face of the sun-
And I watched his flight with a straining
eye:
But if he descended I cannot tell;
I marked alone how his music fell,
Till the last faint throb of the song was done.
Or lost in the space of the pillarless sky.

THE CELIBATE CLUB.
"Women.” remarked Jack Forest.
“are the bane of bachelor civilization.”
“Women is woo personified,” re-
marked Arcturus O'Ryan.
”What in thunder are they here for?”
inquired Will King.
“Fellow sufferers,” said I, Thomas
Tommington, by superiority of age and
experience Chief of the Celibate Cm
terio, “permit me to offer the following
resolutions:
“Whereas, Woman, by her continued
actions, shows that she is in favor of
the:i utter extermination of bachelors;
an
“Whereas, Woman, has no use for a
man unless she can lead him around by
the nose; and
"Whereas, Woman thinks she owns
the earth and the men thereof; and
“Whereas, She never was more mis-
taken in her life; therefore, be it
“Resolved, That we whose signatures
are hereto appended do hereby assert
our manhood and hurl defiance in her
teeth; and -
“Resolved, That we entirely ignore
the existence of all womankind; and
“Resolved, That we do solemnly
pledge ourselves to throw off the female
yoke, and that henceforth and forever
we will neither marry any woman nor
be married by her.”
As might have been expected, these
resolutions were received with vocifer-
ous applause, and the meeting of the
Celibate Club became so hilarious that
three babies on the floor below and
seven on the floor above were aroused
from their angel slumbers, and soon
had awakened everybody else in the
building. After which we adjourned,
having been implored to do by a com-
mittee of twelve married men, who as-
sured us that when we had children of
our own we could better understand
their feelings in the matter.
For three months after the resolutions
passed, all went well with me, as with
my resolutions, then Iwas thrown from
a horse and sustained injuries to the
extent of a broken leg and numberless;
bruises. I ordered myself to be taken
to the hospital, where all good bache-
lors go when they are ill, but a. cousin
of mine, a fine fellow, except that he
was married, issued orders to the con-
trary and took me home with him.
There I was fixed up in royal style, and
his wife took charge of me With such
motherly solicitude that I oiased to
growl about not going to the hospital.
Within a week I began to improve,
and about that time my cousin’s wife’s
sister came to the house on a visit, and,
not having much else to do, she used to
amuse herself with me. I objected at
first, and vowed I’d rout myself out and
go to the hospital, but those two women
knew they had me where Iwas defence-
less, and they only laughed at me when
I growled, and fed me on dainties when
I was tactiturn and silent. I didn’t
want to eat their truck, but my appetite
was something astonishing, and it
forced me to overcome any prejudice I
might have formed.
Later my cousin’s wife's. sister took to
reading to me, and she compelled me
to listen to her because she did have ex-
cellent taste in the matter of books.
and could read exceedingly well. As to
nor voice, it was the sweetest I ever
heard, but, of course, she could have no
credit for that. She was born with it.
Occasionally the members of the co-
terie visited me, but. not often, as the
very presence of women was disagree-
able to them. They condoled with me,
however, and together we frowned
upon Providence for thus throwing me
into the hands of the enemy.
As time went by, and my cousin’s ’
wife’s sister continued to read to me, I
unconsciously grew into the habit of
looking at her sitting on the low chair
near me, with her head bending over
the book, and I began to wonder what
she used on her hair to make it so wavy
and glossy, and, when she would look
up occasionally and smile in response to
a laugh or remark of mine at something
she had read, I would have a queer
kind of a feeling“, as if I were threat-
ened with some kind of heart trouble.
One day I asked the doctor- about it
and he actually grinned. I say
“grinned,” because Pmean “grinned.”
It wasn’t the kindly smile of the phy-
sician to a petulant patient, but a grin;
and I would have thrown him out of
the window had I been in my usual
health and strength.
‘ The first day I walked out on my
crutches my cousin’s wife’s. sister ac-
companied me, 'and I think I leaned
more on her than I did on the crutch.
I am sure I did, as far as the crutch on
the side next to her was concerned.
During the first two or three weeks of
my imprisonment I had, longed for the
time when I ould get out once more
and join the coterie; then I began tc
think less about it, and now, when l
was ready to start forth on_my.jgurney
once more, a free man. somehow 17311
that I was losing something. _ _ -
I couldn’t quite understand it, and.
after my lately acquired fashion of re-
lying upon my cousin’s wife’s sister, 1
asked her about it.
Well, if you will believe me, I we:
never more surprised in my life than ‘
was at the result of this simple questior
blushed and stammered- "and said her
sister wanted her right away, and I just
,stood still in my amazement. She hurl
always been such. a help to me, anl
now, in a. little matter like this to g:
all to pieces, almost made me lose 003‘:
fidence in her. Then she looked up at
me and all of'a sudden I felt that oil
heart trouble come back and—and--
and— ‘ ‘ , .
I hope it is not necessary for me to go
into particulars. Sumce it to say that
between my cousin’s wife’s sister and
myself we managed to have the matter
satisfactorily explained.
But there was the Coterie and there
were those infernal resolutions! What
a fool a man can make of himself when
he is left to his own devices, passes
finite comprehension, as i almost crowds
the infinite to the Vvad. 1, Thomas
Tommington, the Chief. had basely be-
trayed my trust, and concealment for
long was impossible. But I quickly do» -
termined that concealment was my
only hope, and with this hope in my
bosom I attended the Coterie’s banquet
in honor of my restoration to the
charmed circle.
What a hollow mockerythat restora‘
tion was! ,
I was there and at the head of the
table, as befitted my relation to the
Coterie, but my spirits were elsewhere.
Still, I put a bold face on myself, and
applauded to the echo every anti. female
sentiment that was uttered. I even
proposed a toast myself to the utter ob
literation of women. -
I thought it best to draw it strong.
and I did. However, at 9 o’clock I
pleaded that I was not yet strong
enough to join in the late festivities, so
I withdrew, and, shameless wretch that
I was, I hurried to my cousin’s house
and sat up till 12 o’clock with my cous-
in's wife’s sister.
At the next meeting of the Coterieél
began to feel that I was under suspicion.
Perhaps it was merely a guilty con-
science, but I thought my bachelor
friends cooled when I appeared among
them.
I know that when John Temple pro-
posed the toast, “Earth would be heav- ..
on without women,” and I did not
empty my glass, every member present
looked directly at me and thgn at each
other. Any person of the most ordinary
sensitiveness knows how he feels under
such circumstances.
As time went by and suspicion grew
space, it became evident to me that I
must get out of the Coterie. There
was no other honorable course left me.
I could see that there was no longer
harmony, and when I read our resolu-
tions, as I did religiously at every meet-
ing, they were greeted with silence.
At the next meeting, therefore, when
the time had come to open the exercises
with the resolutions, I ruse in my place
and held up my hand for attention.
“Men and brethren,” I said solemn- .
ly, “I shall not read the resolutions this
evening, nor shall I read them again. I
have betrayed the trust you reposed in
me. I amno longerworthy to be your
Chief [great excitement]; I—I—I—
brethren, all I can say is that I am to
be married three months from next
Monday.” [V ociferous applause]
I was astonished at the reception of
my speech and explanation, and could
form no idea what action the Coterie
would take.
Jack Forrest, as Vice-Chief, slowly
came to his feet, and, instead of look
ing at me, as I feared he would: gazed
about on the other members.
“Gentlemen,” he said, "you have
heard the statement made by our
worthy Chief, and I cannot lead you in
action in the matter, in view of the
fact that I am to be married myself ten
weeks from next Tuesday.”
John Temple, next in authority, then
took the floor, and I could see that For-
rest was even worse rattled than '1
was.
“Fellow citizens,” said Temple—ho
was a stump speaker in campaign times
—“I haven’t a word to say. I’m to be
married a month from tomorrow morn-
ing at 10 o’clock.”
Park, King, and O’Ryan seemed to be ,.
dazed by this revelation, added to the
two that preceded. it, and King rose in
response.
“Gentlemen and brothers,” he said,
“I might be able to say what I thought
of the disclosures which have been
made here this evening, but really it
would be unbecoming for me to say
anything. My wedding is set for Wed-
nesday two weeks.” '
When King'ceased Parke spoke up.
“ I can only say, gentlemen,” he said,
“that I can ofier no censure, for - day
after tomorrow I am to be married to
the one woman in the world for me.”
This was rubbing it in. We who
had preceded Park felt that it was
enough to have confessed our crime
without glorying in it, and when Arc-
turus O'Ryan arose, I almost hoped
that he would scathe Park with scorn.
O’Ryan was the handsomest man in
the Coterie. and looked first at me, then
in turn at each of the others. I felt
that the lightniugs of his wrath would
strike us all and strike hard, but I had
less fear than if I had had to stand the
blow alone. However, I unconsciously
braced myself as he began speaking.
“Mr. Chief and fellow members of
the Coterie,” he said, “I am proud be-
yond all expression at what I’ve heard
here this evening. I had hoped that
you would set me, the youngest mem-
ber of the Coterie, a better example.
You are all to be married within three
months, while I. gentlemen—I, to whom
you have stood as exemplars—I, the
youngest man of you all, shall not
marry.
“No, gentlemen,” he‘ fairly thun-
dered, “no, I shall not marry. It is not
necessary for me to marry. I was mar-
ried ten years ago. Congratulate me;
she’s the finest woman in the whole
world.”
And those remarkable resolutions had
been adopted less than a year pre~
