Three cheers for the firemen.

 

East avenue is in dire need of repairs.

 

A big firemen’s parade is now in order.

 

I'Tbe base ball season will nOt be many
laps ahead of the epidemic of illness in
the families of the office boys.

 

A combination of shirt waist and
open car is usually good for a case of
sniflies about this time of the year.

Yesterday’s fir’emen’s dress parade
and inspection drew hundreds of vis-
itors to town. A few similar parades
and Norwalk would Soon wake up.

 

By taking a place in private life,
Tom Reed will be able to enjoy the
glorious privilege of talking back to

the umpire.

 

Bridgeport is enjoying a recount of
the vote recently cast for city officials.
Bridgeport never could get anything

straight anyway.

“A min cannot be a political biga-
mist,” declared Mr. Bryan in one of

his oratorical flights. Yet Mr. Bryan

managed to wed himself to three dif-

ferent nominations in 1896. _

A Thousand Tongues

Could not express the rapture_of
Annie E. Springer, of1123 Howard St.,
Philadelphia, Pa.,. when she found that
Dr. King’s New Discovery for Con-
sumption had completely cured her of
a hacking cough tha for many years
had made life a b rden. All other
medicines and doctors could give her
no help, but she says of this Royal
Cure—"it soon removed the pain in
my chest and I can now sleep soundly,
something I can scarcely remember
doing before. I feel like sounding its
praises throughout the Universe." So

will everyone who tries Dr. King’s New.

Chest or Lungs.

THE OTHER FELLOWS.

We don’t understand the purpose of
a Winsted man going to Bridgeport to
die unless he thought that city nearer
the place he is bound for than our
neighbor up the valley.—-Ansonia Sen-
tinel. ______

One swallow doesn’t make a summer,
but it has nevertheless started a boom
of expansion in the straw hat factory
at Norwalk, which is introducing addi-
tional facilities for production to meet
the increased demand for warm weath-
er head-gear.—New Haven Palladium.

Messrs. Grover Cleveland and David
B. Hill are still left without Jeffersoni-
an dinners suited to their respective
political opinions. It‘s hard work ca-
tering for the dismembered Democratic
party. this year.-—St. Paul Pioneer
Press.

 

The row over the Samoan islands re-
minds one of three big dogs fighting
over a bone with little .or no meet on
it. The dogs get little off the bone
but one or two of them feel pretty sore
when the lighting ends.——Albany Knick-
erbocker.

New York state has setagood ex-
ample by the passage of a law to pre-
vent bicyclists or othe"s from killing
themselves in six-days’ contests. The
recent six-days’ races in the metropo-
lis were sufficient justification for the
framing of this law.—Springfield Union.

It is very hard to see what objections
there are to lanterns on bicycles. We
are aware that wheelinen object to
them but unless their objections are
put in more intelligible language than
h thus far been used, the proposed
bill should be madea lam—New Haven
Register.

As we take it, the unbalanced re-
former, the hobbyist, the crank, is the
man at whom Gov. Roosevelt aims.
The governor is right when he says
that such men do as much.harm to the
cause of reform as machine politicians.
He is also right in his inference that
a man who can keep his independence
while stayinga good party man prac-
tically helps reform along as much as
the man who chooses independence

NO DEFENSE OFFERED.

Quay Casc- Given to the Jury—No
Verdict Reached.

PHILADELPHIA, April 21.—The case
of ex—UnitedSt'ates Senator Quay was
placed in the hands of the jury prompt-
Iy at 3 o’clock yesterday afternoon, and
no verdict being reached by 10 o'clock
at night the jury was locked up until
morning. There was no intimation
other than mere rumor as to the atti-
tude of the jury. The generally ex-
pressed opinion of those who have fol—
lowed the trial since its beginning on
Monday of last week is that the ver—
dict will be an acquittal.

Many, however, look for a disagree-
ment. There are but fewvwho express
the belief that a verdict of guilty will
be given.

Yesterday‘s proceedings were confined
entirely to argument and speeches by
counsel. the defense deciding to present
no testimony. Mr. Watson began the
day by requesting that the case be
withdrawn from the jury and a. verdict
of not guilty rendered. He contended
that the commonwealth had utterly
failed to ‘make out a case against Mr.
Quay. Judge Biddle determined the is-
sues were,‘ those for a jury to decide,
and he ruled that it be gone through
with in the usual way. Mr. Shields here
announced-the defense’s intention to
take no testimony, and under the rules
of the court he thus obtained the priv-
Ilege of making but one, the last. speech
to the jury. District Attorney Bother—
mel Spoke for one hour, Mr. Shields fol-
lowed for one hour and three-quarters,
and Judge Biddle charged the jury in
nine minutes.

 

May Have Been a Man.

CANTON, 0., April 21.—The defense
for Mrs, George yesterday put on the
stand a witness who testified that she
saw a man in a long black mackin-
tosh and cape, wearing a white sailor
hat, passing her home, which is on one
of the routes from the Althouse home
to the center of the city, soon after the
shooting of Saxton. This evidence was
intended to corroborate a witness who
testified on Wednesday that a ”man in
black” was seen approaching the Alt-
house home. The defense has already
nearly concluded its case.

Troops Sail For Mnniin.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 21.—The
transports Newport and Warren sailed
for Manila via Honolulu yesterday. The
Newport carries light Batteries F of
the Fourth and Fifth artillery respect—
ively and 125 marines to re-enforce Ad-
miral Dewey’s fleet and some Red Cl‘OSS
nurses. The Warren carries eight bat—
teries of the Sixth artillery, 200 recruits
and 50 men for the hospital corps. Both
transports are heavily laden with feed,
provisions and ammunition for the ar-
my and navy.

 

 

Insurance Conipnny Sued. .

LITTLE ROCK, April 21.—Attorney
General Davis has instituted in the Pu-
laski county circuit court 36 suits for
$5,000 each against the Connecticut Fire
Insurance company, charging it with
being a member of a combination to
regulate premiums to be paid for insur-
ing property. The suits cover each day

To Boom Hepburn.

CLARINDA, 1a.. April 21.—-Friends of

gation.
