Venus, the, evening star that looms up
so bright and beautiful In the wear, must
have been amused last evening to hear
the different opinions that were ex-
pressed regarding it by many who were
attracted by its hrilliancy. The star
shone brighter than ever last night. Our
attention was first called to it by ofiicr-r
Cuigrove, who asked if we had seen the
electric light in the firmament, the re«
sult of Edison's experiment in New Jer-

All along the sidewalk in the vicinity of

ing at the bright planet. One man said
he had been studying up the matter in
the Scientific American and knew it was
an electric light. Those who had done
a little star gazing themselves in their
day enjryed the mistake that some of
the spectators was entertaining. Capt.
Gould linyt said that a man could walk
along distance and he would not get
much nearer to the supposed electric
light than he was at present.
A Pleasant Time at Dorion's l‘olnt.
List evening a party of about twenty
young men from this city went to the

carryali at 830 o'clock. Upon arrival at
the Point several hours were spent in
fun making. Melody was made by
Messrs. Jesse and Chester Toiiee, Horace
Hatch, Frank Nash, Robert Mchbae
and John Davies, and the popular songs
sung by them so inspired all bands that
when supper time arrived everybody was
prepared to do justice to the spread.
which included any number of good
things with which to tickle the palate.
The ”male dazzle" was conspicuous by
its awence. During the evening a prac.
ticai joke was played on “Jack” Davies;
He had taken of! his coat and some of
the boys took it to the dispensary and
"bucked" it for soda water, etc. John
had a ne.‘ bill to settle when he re-
deemed it.
Thus the evening was spent. Tire part y

A Pleasant Gathering.
The fourth reception was given to the
S. C. Club and other guests last evening
by Mrs. R. L. Higgins at her pleasant
home on Elm street, Norwalk. The
highest gifts—progressive whist—were
awarded to W. H. Sword and Mrs. T. B.
Nash. Especial interest was manifested
in the distribution of the points or sen
oud prizes, their being a tie between
Mrs. Watkins of New York, Miss Cora
Barthett of Meriden, and Mrs. H. R.
Fitch. Mrs. Fitch was the successful
contestant. The third reward of merit
was presented to Miss Iva Stillson. An
unusual degree of sociability prevailed,
and many expressions of good will were

A Total Loss to the Owner».
This morning at 1.30 o‘clock the blow-

Will!) from their siumbers. The cause
of the alarm was the burning of Cook k
Hilton's oyster stouncr “Early ilir ."
The boat was drawn out of the water for
the season and contained a largo quan-
tity of tools. The flames soon consumv
ed the boat and all attempts to save it

the fire was the work of on Incendiary.
The loss will probably reach S‘l, 000.

“bu On Its Connecticut?
“Mr. liiil of Stamford, introduced a
bill providing that all railroads shall fur-
nish passes for members of the general
assembly. the same to be sent to the
comptroller, and if charge is made for
the grasses, the comptroller to notify the
general assembly of the same in order
that it may be considered."
What Hill is this E Where does he get
his gall? What clause under the Consti-
tution of the State of Connecticut is it
that compels ’common carriers to trans-
port the people.‘ representatives around
without pay?
The railroads of this state should first
be compelled to do what the charter re—
quires of them, then pass a law to pro-
hibit the free pass system, thereby pre-
serving thc right and dignity of the
stat».
Question: D.) railroad companies own
Connecticut, or do the people through
their representatives?

A TRUE. BILL FOR ”MURDER.
'I'iic Ellsworth” Altair in Ifaddarn.
About Thanksgiving time a daughter
of the wife of Charles U. Ellsworth of
liaddnui was delivered of an illegitimate
child, which was soon after removed by
persons unknown. It was believed that
it had,been killed, and active search was
made for the remains without result. A
pond was drawn off, but nothing found.
Mr. and Mrs. Ellsworth were suspect-
ed and the case was presented on
Friday to‘the grand jury, of which Jos—
eph E. Silliman of Chester was foreman
and Walter S. Clark of Chester clerk.
After a hearing of considerable length a
true bill for murder in the first degree
was found against Ellsworth, and a true
bill for murder in the second degree
against his wife.

Connecticut's Criminal Record.
The returns of the county commission
etc, which have been compiled by the
secretary of the state, will make mighty
interesting reading for people who are
pleased to call Connecticut the land of
steady habits. During the year ending
June 37th last, 7,333 persons were com-
mitted to the eight jails in the stale. Of
those 3,894 were for drunkenness, 908 for
breach of the peace, 454 for larceny, 381
for assault, 169 for burglary, 65 for rob-
bery, 39 for assault with intent to kill, 5
for higamy, 2‘3 for adultery. 86 for em.
bezzlemont, ‘21 for murder, 9 for perjury
and the others for offenses varying in
their enormity. Of all these only 95
were strictly temperate, 2,462 were mod-
erate drinkers and 1,845 were habitually
intemperate. 0f the latter number Fair-
lieid county furnished 1,441. Of the jail
population of the state, 6,462 were males
and 896 were females. The model coun-
ty of New London cared for five persons
charged with murder, Hartford had four
cases, Faitficld seven, Windham one,
Litcbfieid none, Toiland three, and New
Haven only one. But New Haven holds
up its end in the number of liquor li-
censes issued which amounted to 1,007,
bringing in a revenue of $224,656. In
the city of New Haven 455 licenses were
issued, from which $11,255 was derived.
Bridgeport, although smaller than Hart-
ford, has more saloons, the number being
282, while Hartford has 250. In the
whole county of Windham there are on-
ly 68, and in Toiland‘oniy 46. The re-
ceipts from licenses during the year
amounted t0557,938.33, of which 327,-
906.90 went to the counties and $530,041.-
42 to the towns.
