A depression will advance east from
Montana. The storm centre w hicb it
was predicted would form in the south
west, has made its appearance in Texas.
The area of rain and melting snow in
this section will probably move north-
eastwardly to- day, followed by clearing.
Temperature rose in the United States
yesterday; the chief minimum reported
was 4 degrees below zero at St. Vincent,
Minn.; the chief maximum was 7-1 at
Key West. In this district to- day warm~
er, partly cloudy weather will probably
prevail preceded by snow or rain, with
fresh variable winds, mostly south-
easterly to southwesterly, followed
by clearing and fair weather. On
Friday in this section and in New
England warmer, fair to partly cloudy
weather will probably prevail,with fresh
and light variable winds, followed by
rain in the western and southern portions
of this se3tion, extending northeastward-
ly at night; and on Saturday warmer,
partly cloudy to cloudy weather, follow-
ed by general rains. with easterly to
southerly winds, and fog on the coasts.
The Texas depression will move north-
cnatwardly and probably cause danger-
ous winds and weather off the Middle
Atlantic coasts Friday and Saturday.

MIss Edith Julian and her comedy

Womau"willbo given. This is one of
the strongest pieces erer put on the
stage. It is our of Amino Hunter‘s
works, author of Mr. Barnes of New

which is vr-ry interesting. Prices are
10, 130 and 30 cents.

“Little Lord Fauntleroy."

Do not fail to see “Little Lord Faunt-
leroy" at tho Opera House on Monday
evening. (if its merits the Boston Jour-
nal says: . . . The story of “Little
Lord Fauntleroy" has Its strength in its
pathos. There is very little sadness in
it, the pathetic not being obtained by
playing upon the chords of emotion by
pictures of allliction or sorrow; on the
contrary happiness and good cheer shine
forth at every turn, giving comfort to
those who live in the hour being with
the characters and yet at the same time
so touching their hearts that unconsci-
ously the lump rises in their throat and
the tear comes to the eye. It is the
sweetness of character of the little boy-
hero, his tenderness and love, that so
rouses the sympathy and gives pathos to
the story that begins, continues and ends
in almost perfect sunshine.

 

“lose the Eagle Qua-n."

()n the evening of March 5th, “7.020,
The Magic Queen," will be presented at
Music Hall. ZIzo isa spectacle so re-
plots with beauties and attractions that
one does not thoroughly appreciate it
until he has seen it several times. it
grows on you, and seems to present some
new and interesting feature each time it
is seen. The stage management of Sol
Aiken is perfect, there being no hitch.
as is generally the case in plays with
much scenery. The scenery, with the
aid of calcium lights, is perfectly beauti-
ful, and the transformation scene in the
last act seems more like the work of days
than a few minutes.

The company is a strong one, and is
noted especially for the fine looking lad»
ies who take part in it. A better com-
pany to present Zozo could scarcely be
found, 'and they cannot fail to get the
patronage they so richly deserve.

A Terrible Pall. '
At Stamford on Tuesday,whsrs a force

car ran into a stay rope attached to a
pole on the top of which T. Tarbot, a
lineman, was stationed. The stay rope
broke and the pole fell. The spurs
which these men use to climb with were,
in this case, so fastened into the pole that
the unfortunate man was unable to dis-
engage himself and he fell with the pole.
Tarbot struck on the concrete sidewalk.
He was not killed outright, but his re-
covery is considered doubtful.

South Norwalk lint Notes.

January was comparatively dull in
South Nonvalk in the batting line in
comparison to former years, a result no
doubt arising from the fact that all the
manufacturers were in the field early
with their samples. Quite a little busi-
ness was done through the month on
duplicate orders, but towards the last of
the month jobbers and retailers held off
for the advent of the Youmans and lil-
ler hats which were issued on February
lat. Later on will come the Dunlap,
and between the three hats and duplicate
orders on goods already placed things
will be more lively during February.

At Crofut & Knapp‘s two factories
business for the month has turned out
woll. Mr. Phil. Knapp says their busi-
ness for January and February is far
ahead of the same time a ycnrago. Their
line of stiff hate is composed of taking
styles, and their crush hats surpass in
beauty those of previous seasons. it may
be well to add that their sales in crush
hats for 1883 were over 2,100 dozen. This
may not seem a large number, but they
were of the quality used only by first-
class trade, and kept up to their usual
standard of excellence.

The Melville Manufacturing (‘ . can
turn out .50 per cent. more goods now
than they could two years ago, the 1m-
portant changes that have been going
on during the Fall and Winter have
greatly increased their capacity. Not
only havetbe firm enlarged and made
more comfortable the workrooms of
their employee, but they have dealt
wisely and well with themselves, so that
now Messrs. Raymond and Comotock,
who have to look after the manufactur-
ing end. have as handsome an ofllcs and
sample rooms as any manufacturers in
the country. The floors. ceilings and
side walls are of Georgia plus. The
oflice furniture is all now including two
or three handsome cherry desks for the
main cities and a rich showcase for
samples. Old fashioned Venetian blinds
at the windows odd very much to tbs
checrfulness of their quarters, and all in
all it makes a pleasant home for the firm.
and very inviting to buyers.

The \‘olk Hat Company have kept re-
markably busy from early in December
until now. Mr. RobertTrimblc returned!
on February 1st from an extended West-
ern trip South and West, having been on
the road continually since Thanksgiving
day. He has kept rolling In the orders
for goods that will bcsure to warrant
many duplicates during the season. The
company have recently put in one of the
Wing disc fan ventilators. Over each of

ed it to rain on a certain Sunday a few
weeks ago, replied, “Why that's no af-
fair of mine: ask Water Commissioner
Raymond about it."

"tars OI-‘l‘ run TRACK.

An Acclrlout on the New England Causes
Serious "clay.

The locomotive and night loaded freight
cars of the east bound express freight
train ran off the New England track at
Cook's, east of l’lainville, before? o'clock
Wednesday morning. Fortunately the
locomotive and cars remained on the ties
until Lynda Havens, the engineer, sue.
cecded in stopping the train. The dsnt~
age was confined to the injury of the
portion of the track involved and to the
delay of the early passenger trains, both
of which were nearly four hours behind
time. The Washington express which
ran in two sections that morning was
separated by the accident and the last
section did not leave l’lainville until
nearly 11 a. m. The passengers on this
train comprised a special party to whom
the delay was not serious, it is stated.

“A! THERE FOUL PLAY.

Hang-luck People are Talking About the
Death of Henry Harlin-y.

Sunday night. as reported in Monday's
paper, Henry llartney, a dissolutc fel-
low, was found in a drunken condition
near Kelly Hill, in the town of Nouga-
tuck and was brought to the lockup. It
'was found that his death was the result
of drink and exposure. (in Monday
afternoon his remains were buried in
Hillside cemetery and nothing was
thought of the matter until yesterday
when rumors were afloat that the body
was to be disinterred and a post mortem
examination made, as it was thought
that the fellow had been poisoned and
had met with foul play. Constable Ford
says that Hartncy was alive when he
brought him to the station house, while
one or two others insist that the fellow
was dead. Dr. Fitzgerald was called im-
mediately, but when he arrived 1hr? man
had died. Some say that Hartnev had
several ribs broken. The medical exam-
iner gave drink and exposure as the
cause of his death. Th: rumor some-
what agitibl ll. . ii 3.: .nl. v, but
wrth the exciternint rmr thr minder it
was rather forgotten yesterday. A Dem-
ocrat reporter made very urgent inquir-
ies yesterday, but could not trace the
rumor to any authentic source. It is
probable that it is false. and flint the un-
fortunate man’s remains will not be dis-
turbed. His death was probably due to
the cause assigned by Medical Examiner

 

the six kettles hoods of galvanized iron
have been placed, with large pipes lead-i
ing to the fan, carrying off effectually!

every particle of steam, thus makingl
one of the most comfortable plank shops;
in the country. They have a fireproof

vault for the storage of their furs. and!
in fact, in all parts where fires are used
the ceilings are composed of fireproof
filings. For the comfort of their em-
ployee during the Summer ventilators
have been placed over each bench and at
convenient places in the trimming room.

The Bentwood Factory, run by Messrs
John Rowland .5: Sons, is at present tax-
ed to its utmost capacity, the popular.
shape for this season being the "Bonn
wood" derby, illustrated so handsomely
in the Hatter d: Furrier for January.‘
They are making also the Youmans, Mil-
ler and Dunlap shapes, and altogether
have all they can do to fill orders. 1'.
John Rowland, who now resides In South ‘
Norwalk, looks carefully after every de-
tail, not allowing a bat to go out that is
not perfect in every particular. Their
new salesroom at 163 Greene street, New ;
York, is very much of 'an improvement?
over the old one in location and conveni-
ences for showing goods.

John G. Wilson a Co. are also busy
with the rest- on their popular shapes,
and it looks as though they were going
to have a heavier business than astral.

Adams Bros. have been having their
full share of work, but so far on black
goods only. Mr. Adams says it is a re-
markable fact that in December and
January of last year a large proportion
of hats coming through were on light
and fancy colors, but up to the first of
this month the run has been almost on-
tirely on black goods, a few only being
of dark brown.

The South Norwalk Hat Co. (coopera-
tive) are having all they can do to keep
up with orders. Mr. E. H. Bush, the
President of, the company, spends most
of his time on the road looking after
Baltimore, Washington and the Hudson
River trade. W. T. Osgood looks after
Eastern and Western territory, and Mr.
John J. Murphy, the vicepresident, at-
tends to home matters. ,

Hubbell & Barthol make a specialty of
bodies in the rough and also finish them
for the trade, ready for curling and trim-
ming. Their factory is complete in
every facility in improved machinery
for turning out perfect work. One of
Wing‘s disc fan ventilators, supplied
with hoods over each kettle, carries off
the steam and not only makes their
plank shop as cheerful as any shop can
be made, but avoids the making of im-
perfect bodies to a large extent. They
have been recently trimming their crush
bats and turning out good work in that
line.

The young firm of E. V. Baker a 00.
have met with success, and if they con-
tinue turning out good work, will rs-
csivs their share of businsm. They stats
that their customers are well pleased and
are gladly giving them a larger share of
their busine- this "sauna.

He Saves an Old Lady at the Perl! of His
Life.

Mrs. Wortben of Bridgeport, eighty
years old and infirm, became dazed by
the approach of a train as she was cross—
ing the track the other evening. The
Bridgeport Farmer says: "For. an instant
she stood paralyzed with fear. Gate
Tender Scarritt left his position and ran
to her assistance. The train was not
more than twenty feet distant when he
reached her side. He did not hesitate a
moment but stepping quickly upon the
track, grasped the old lady firmly in his
arms and lifted her from her perilous
position just as the train dashed by. He
held her firmly just outside the rails un-
til ths danger was over."

The men who are running the telegraph
line through Woodbridge use dynamite
in digging the post limes on account of
the frost, and like everyone else who has
anything to do with that article at this
season of the year,they experience much
trouble from Its freezing, and the con-
slquent danger in thawing it out. They
have tried many ways to do this, hot

water generally, and finally hit upon a "

plan suggested probably by passing so
many farm lioness. that of burying it in
the barn yard manure heap. it worked
toa charm: burying it at night, it was
all right for use in the morning. A few
days ago they brought it to a neighbor-
ing farm yard, covered it up, and
event away. The farmer watched
their proceedings from the house with
much curosity and when they had gone,
“What have those fellows been steal-
ing?" said he, and cautiously he went out
to investigate. He found the bag of
merchandise. but not being able to tell
what it was, took it to the house and up
stairs into the attic and put it down not
far from the chimney. The next day
when the mencame back and discovered
their loss, much alarmed they appealed
to the farmer to know if he had seen any
one carrying off their dynamite. “Dy—
namIte!" shouted the man in bewildered
amazement, and trembling to think of
what risk he had run in capturing those
“goods" so mysteriously hidden. Then
he explained to the men the story, but
would not stir a step to get the innocent
looking “sawdust" and only drew a long
breath when they went away carrying
the stuff with them—Derby Evening

HOW Ill: CAPTl BBB PIRATES.
Captain Pierce Jones—father of S. K
Jones, the New Haven artist—who died
In Clinton, Friday, was born In Septem-
ber. 1793, and during his earlier years
led an exciting life and passed through
many adventures. He served In the war
of 1812 and at the time of his death was
one of the few pensioners of that war.
After the war he engaged in a sea faring
life for about twenty years, being in the
West India trade. During this period
pirates did a flourishing business and
Captain Jones had many encounters
with them. On one occasion he was
conveying some English soldiers to one
of the islands of the West Indies when
he .was attacked by Portugese pirates.
Captain Jones kept the sordisrs out of
sight and when the pirates boarded the
vessel they were surprised and captured
and were subsequently taken on one of
the islands and after a trial were executo
ed. Captain Jones followed the sea un-
til about forty-five years of age when he
purchased a farm in Clinton and there
he had since resided. He had lived un-
der every president of the United States,
five years under the administrations of
Washington, and his stories of the early
political days of the republic. were very
interesting.

The State Agricultural School.

T. 8. Gold of West Cornwall includes
the following in his annual report as sec-
retary of the trustees of the state Agri-
cultural school: “I would recommend
to your careful consideration the mat»
.ter of arranginga shcrt winter course,
extending perhaps from November 1 to
April 1, in addition to our present school
year, for those who cannot be spared
from the farm for along period, yet
who would be glad to spend few winters
in study, preparatory to the life work
upon the farm. A large number of re-
quests for permission to join such class
have been received during the past year,
and that, too, largely from young
men who have got beyond the school age
yet who deeply feel the need of more
education. " The school has forty mem-
bers. The farm and garden products
last year amounted to $2,498.49. The live
stock is estimated at 01,908 and the
farm implements at 8429. The expenses
last year were‘about 816,500. '
