‘Truth above all things.’ Entered in the Post Office as a. Newspaper FRIDAY, JUNE 4, 1897 Sunday. The Chicago Tribune observes that, In continental Europe the Roman Cath- olics, the Lutherans, and the Greek Christians, numbering over 300,000,000, attend church on Sunday forenoon, and then devote the rest of the day to rec- reation and pleasure, so that they keep holy only about one-half of Sunday. This obtains everywhere in Europe ex- cept in England, Scotland, and North- ern Ireland, where, owing to the influ- ences of Puritanism, Sunday is kept very much as it used to be kept in this country. Since the great influx of con- tinental Europeans here, however, the practice has materially changed, and people have begun to observe Sunday as the only holiday they have and to devote it largely to recreation as well as rest. ‘ The Cycle Nearly Completed. The Minneapolis Tribune indulges in these hopeful observations:— The history of this country appears to show that panics and recoveries run in about twenty-year periods. There was the panic of 18I3, followed by five years of depression: the beginning of recovery in 1877; the full tide of re- covery in 1879, followed by a period of prosperity lasting until 1892. Then came the panic Of 1893, followed by the period of depression which we are now experiencing. To some there are as yet no signs of improvement discerni- ble, while to others there is already a faint glimmer of dawn. Many are lfooking forward to‘the passage of the tariff bill as the starting point of a new period of prosperity. But whether from that or some other cause or causes, it is quite probably that history will repeat itself, and in the fall of the present year, or the beginning Of 1898, we shall witness a notable improve- ment, followed by perhaps ten or a rlozen years of great prosperity. The cycle is nearly completed. Perfect Military Training. The Seventh New York Regiment, which for a generation, at least, has been the model military organization of the country, has just delighted Bos- ton by its perfect and soldierly work, and the Boston Journal takes occasion to call the attention of the national .‘ guardsmen of Massachusetts to the fact . that while it costs each member as much money to belong to the regiment as it would to be a member of the ,Met- ropolitan club, that it is not money that makes the regiment superior, but work. The excellence of the regiments work is maintained because drill meetings are held as often as four evenings in a week, and every man takes pride in be- ing there and is heavily fined if he misses a drill meeting without a satis- factory excuse. . “The average military company,” says The Journal, “has no knowledge of what drills, military courtesy, disci- pline and general soldierly duties are when their work is contrasted with what the thousand men of the Seventh do. full 103 men at ten~ successive annual One company has turned out its inspections, and last year a man with appendicitis fell in with his company that he might be counted to keep up lthe record. In camp duties their work is less exacting, except for the early reveille, than that of our First Corps. Every man has to qualify as a marks- man, both in the armory and at Creed- moor, each year. To have a button un- buttoned or a knapsack strap unrolled is to disobey orders and hence is unsol- dierly. Other details are watched with just such care, which explains the effi- ciency of the regiment. ' "Most military commands cannot hope to match the Seventh with its long history, its alumni as numerous as those of most colleges, fine club houses in several cities and its enthu- its siastic personnel, but all can try to carry out its practices so far as possible and desirable. Our Bay state militia: has some strong points which we be- lieve the New York National Guard lacks, but the Seventh is strong where many of our cornpanies are weak, and we hope its visit here will help to cor- rect our volunteers’ ,minor‘ deficien- _ cies. WEEKLY - NORWALK -'oA7..E'r'rn.~ i FUDA’S' TALE OF CRIME. [CONTINUED rnon PAGE 1.] will be resumed and it is expected that Attorney Fessenden will prove by Fuda’s own words that crazed with jealously at his wife’s actions, he read- ily agreed to the plan to lead his wife off to a secluded spot and with Imapas- sino murder her and that when he sharp- ened the axe in the morning he had fully settled his mind as to what course he would follow. ' Even if the story which Fuda asserts is true, that he held his wife thinking that a train was approaching and that when Imapassino struck the fatal blow he ran away, showed him an arrant coward; but the attorney for the state declared yesterday that he would show from Fuda that he said the “job would be done together” and that he was not therefore drawn into it as an unwilling tool. It is likely that there will be some in- teresting developments in the case to- day, before the state’s attorney gets through with the cross—examination of the accused. It is believed that something yet un- locked for in the case will be disclosed and that Fuda will be caught. in the trap that he laid for Imapassino by the course he has taken in his confession. Imapassino has made many admis- sions since he was so grossly betrayed by Fuda, who to save himself, endeav- ored to throw the blame on his com- panion and it is believed the state has in its possession, certain facts from Im- apassino that Will upset the foundation of Fuda’s story of the crime. Vvv r FEMININE CHAT. Spinach is fine for the complexion. It is said that the Sedan chair is to be once again the fashionable equipage. People who enjoy reading are making out lists of books for summer perusal. Gold and steel embroidery are seen on some of the smartest summer crea- tions. Lawn tennis will be played more this summer than for several seasons past. Theman who is good to his mother won't go far wrong in his treatment of other women. The strawberry festival is now the great church function by means of which many debts are dissipated. It is a great blow to the lover of strawberries to discover that they are positively poisonous to the blood. A rainy Monday tries. the souls of ting the washing out of the way. , The woman who is ashamed to tell that she is earning her own living is not very apt to make a howling success of it. “Then a woman bicyclist learns to brake with her foot she thinks there isn’t anything more about wheeling for her to know. _ ‘ And now the people who have rented a seven by nine cottage for the summer talk with effrontery of their “country house.” It is all very well to talk of our close-l ness to Europe, but when one’s most intimate friend is on the other side and letters are about three weeks apart, it doesn’t seem so near as talk would make it appear. Brides do not as of yore stick closely to gray for the “going away” toilette. It is too much like an advertisement of their newly acquired dignity to be pop- ular with those who do not care to be conspicuous. Women ought not to be expected to train husbands and children too, but many of them undertake the task, nev- ertheless. The opera crook cane is now the lat- est thing used by the “ chappies,” it being the style adopted by the Prince of Wales. Some little frocks for baby daughters of modish women have at least a dozen very fluffy flounces on the very short skirts. V v‘ 7‘ FRATERNAL NEWS.

I], Montana Authorities Still Believe 1111 Blood May Be Shed. Miles City, Mon., June 4.-—Sheriff Gibb has returned from the Cheyenne agency. The Indian situation. he says, is very grave indeed. He reports that 200 or more Indians are off the reservation and scattered in the hills. Their war whoops can be heard frequently, and fie dancing continues. Old settlers look for trouble. The sheriff's posse, 300 strong, is now stationed in detach- ments in and about the settlements near the reservation to protect the re- maining settlers. ' Indian Agent Stouch would not dev liver the prisoner, Badger, up to the sheriff, but said he would escort Badger off the reservation with troops and de- liver him to the authorities. placed Captain Stouch under arrest. but left him at liberty until summoned by County Attorney Porter. The sheriff also has a warrant for Captain Reid. who has charge of the troops from Fort Custer located at the reservation. It is not known among the Indians in the hills that Badger is in the guardhouse. When this becomes known and he is removed from the reservation, it 'is feared the Indians will make an at-’ tempt to recover him if possible. If this is done, there will be 1055 of life on both sides. Governor Smith has directed the sheriff to take a posse of all citizens who can be obtained and exhaust all means to secure a sufficient posse to enforce the service of warrants on the Indian murderers and Indian Agent Stouch. FIVE DEAD IN THE RUINS. Fatal Collapse of a Big Soap Factory In: New York. New York, June 4.——The third floor of a new soap factory building nearly fin- ished. at Fifty-first street and Twelfth avenue, collapsed with an iron tank containing 20,000 gallons Of water 'just It, fell upon the sec— ond floor, where there was another tank of the same capacity, and likewise filled. That drove through the second floor to the first, where a third tank stood. All three went into the base- ment, with most of the three floors above. ' Five men are supposed to be buried in the ruins of the building, which is owned by David S. Brown & Co., soap manufacturers. The building was just about com- pleted, and occupied about 200 by 150 feet on made ground. Foreman Jackson, who was on the third floor at the time of the accident. says that immediately before the tanks fell he saw three or four men working on the floor beneath him. He thinks they were carpenters. It is also said that a millwright and an elevator man were in that part of the building at the time of the cpllapse, and they have not been seen since. " The police arrested the watchman, whose name is Doyle; Foreman John Jackson, and Superintendent Macy, all the men they could find about the building who were not ordinary work- lngmen. .

He was 53 years old and quite wealthy. hIodel Like Valkyrie III. ‘ Glasgow, June 4.—The 85 ton cutter yacht Bona', built for the Duke Of Ab- ruzzi, nephew of the king of Italy, who is now in the United States at the head of an expedition which will attempt to ascend Mount St. Elias, was launched here.
