FRIDAY, AUGUST 25, 1899.

GOOD EVENING.

Norwalk is honored to-day. “Brown’sZ

sleepy Stamford.

The excitement portrayed among 01‘ ,

fice holders about towu would indicate 3
that election time is drawing near.

Coxey, who walked on the Capitol
grass as the leader of a tramp army in
’95, is now a boss miner and is not
.allowing any grass to? grow under his
feet in getting rich.

___————-

A hateful man in a red line car the

' other day apologized for stepping on a
woman’s foot by saying: “I really beg
your pardon, madam, but I had to step

somewhere.”

 

The expression, “How would you
like to be the ice man?” evidently
originated with the same idiot who
thought out the interrogation, “Is it
hot enough for you?”

 

A cow in a Texas city was blown 50
feet in the air by a dynamite explosion.
This explains the recent rise in meat.
But like the cow the price of meat is
bound to come down.

Nobody ever sees a procession of
pitchered and tin-kettled men going
, for saloons who does not think if these
are the dog days they are also great
times for the growlers.

It generally happens that there is a
cool spell in August that drives every
one home to swelter in Se tember, and
regret that they had not profited by
the weather example of former years.

There is no lessening of the depth of
the_ war shadow that seems settling
Over South Africa. What a pity it is
that there should be a possibility of
such an unequal conflict at this stage
of cirilization’s progress.

At the present moment there are in
the United States 2,200,000 more unat-
tached males than females similiarly
situated, the exact figures being 5,427,-
767 bachelors against 3,224,494 spinsters
of ages from 20 years. The bachelor
editor of the Palladium should hasten
to get out of this hopeless majority.

The ugly stories being set afloat rel-
ative to the death of John Verlin, who
was found dead under a cart on Tolles’
wharf, are worthy of an investigatiOn
by Medical Examiner Huntington. If
Verlin’s death was caused -by any of
the crew of the Lucy A. Lane it should
be known.

 

Ex-speaker Thomas B. Reed leaves
the public no longer in doubt as to his
retirement from Congress. His resig-
nation, to take eifecton Sept. 4, has al-
ready been received and accepted by
Governor Powers and his successor has
been agreed upon. Neither as Speaker
nor as Republican leader will Mr.Reed

again participate in the proceedings of
the House of Representatives. His
resignation has been accepted, and so
far as the public knows, or present ap-
pearances indicate, his departure from
public life is final. Like others who
have gained prominence and become a
force in the councils of the nation, he
retires toprivate life to put money in
his purse.

 

Interest is naturally deepening in
the coming international yacht race.
The fact that the challenger has
reached this side of the Atlantic has
served to quicken the interest. Hith-
erto our knowledge of the model and
capabilities of the Shamrock has been
entirely confined to the cable accounts,
and these are always apt to be colored
in accordance with the national senti-
‘ments or prejudices of the party send-
ing the dispatch. With the boat in
our’waters, however, the opportunity
will be afforded to get her measure as
soon as she has donned her racing sails

.10 .

 

and began her practice spins for the

" purpose of familiarizing her navigators

with the course over which the cup
contests are tobesailed. That she is
the speediest competitor With WhiCh
an American yacht has yet been called
upon to defend the cup is believed to
be the fact, and the intensity of the
interest felt on the other side of the
ocean in her success is shown by the
fact that .the American captain of the
German emporer”s yacht Meteor, io-

' gether with a picked number of the

crew of that boat, have been secured
to help pilOt her onto victory.
Americans, however, have confidence

,1 in the Columbia .to strengthen our hold

upon the cup and make this visit of the
Shamrock as unproductive, so far as

, securing the prize, as has been the case
. with the other English yachts that have

come here with a Similar object. Ever
since the America, nearly 40 years ago,
brought this trophy here it has re-
mained inour possession in spite of all
the attempts of English or‘Scotch yacht
designers to wrest it from .us, and it is
not believed that it is in danger at this
time of returning to the other side of
the Atlantic. To be sure, there is a. pos-
sibility that in the Shamrock we have
a competitor that may reverse the rule
that has held good for so many years,

but until the fact is demonstrated we .

will pin our faith to the designing skill

of Herreshoif as against Fife 'or any

other yacht draughtsman that Great,

Britain can produce. Should the un-

expected happen and the result of the '
race witness the return of the cup to

the country from whence it originally
came, our acknowledgement of the

logic of victory will be in no narrow ‘

orunsportsmanlike spirit. Americans
are good losers, although they have
had less experience in that line than
their trans-Atlantic friends.

Forg‘ot He Was a General.

One of Funston’s men writes that in
the latest engagement, near San Fer-
nando the general went into battle at
the head of his brigade, composed of
Kansas, Montana and Utah troops.
When the fight started, however, Gen.
Funston forgot that he was in command
of a brigade and, leaving his staff, order-
ly, horse and all. he joined the Kansas
boys on foot and personally gave them
orders as he led them to the charge.

‘A‘

Women Should Know It.

Many w0men suffer untold agony and
misery because, the nature of their dis-
ease is not correctly understood. They
have been led to believe that womb
trouble or female weakness of some
sort is responsible for the many ills
that beset womankind.

Neuralgia, nervousness, headache.
puffy or dark circles under the eyes,
rheumatism, a dragging pain or dull
ache in the back, weakness or hearing,
down sensation, profuse or scanty sup-
ply of urine with strong odor, frequent
desire to pass it with scalding or burn-
ing sensation, sediment in it after
standing in bottle or common glass for
twenty-four hours, are signs of kidney
and bladder trouble.

The abOVe symptoms are often at-
tributed by the patient herself, or by
her physician, to female weakness or
womb trouble. Hence, so many fail to
obtain relief, because they are treating
not the disease itself, but a reflection
of the primary cause, which is kidney
trouble.

In fact, women as well, as men are
made m:serable with kidney and blad-
der trouble and both need the same
remedy.

Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, is the
great discovery of the eminent kidney
and bladder specialist, and is easy 'to
get at any drug store for fifty cents or
one dollar.

To prove its wonderful merits, you
may have a sample bottle and book
telling all about it, both sent absolute-
ly free by mail. Kindly mention THE
NORWALK GAZETTE and send your
address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bing-
hampton, N. Y.
