THE ‘ ANNUAL OUTING OF THE
WOMAN’S CLUB, OF NORWALK.
“Aleutian! flowers and tanned by
Dal-y, Brenna, the Ila-there or this
lunatic Society Have a least and
a Story-Telling Italic at The Knob.
The annual lunch of the Woman’s club,
of smut, took place yesterday. As a
number of its members also belong to
The Knob club, it is possible each year to
give the entertainment at this charming
place. ,
The catering Was in the bands of The
Knobcook, and he served a delightful
and dainty lunch, which, from the clam
.broth at the beginning to the great fra—
grant strawberries, served an naturel,
andthe blackest of black coffee at the
end, was perfectly prepared, and, what
is a most important item, quickly and
smoothly served by efficient and watch-
ful waiters. Ladies accustomed to enter-
tain in their own pretty homes always
make critical guests, and when these are
all delighted, it is safe to say that things
are pretty nice.
The long board was beautiful with
flowers, great clusters of rhododendron
and sweet peas, in small, odd-shaped
baskets, and at each place, as a cor-sage
bouquet, was laid a bunch of bachelor’s
buttons, the club flower. tied with
the club colors. The menu cards were
literally works of art, the careful handi-
work of the club artist. They were in
black and white, the mottoes from
Shakespeare, chosen especially for each
person, and the pictures exquisite draw-
ings of various fish.
At the close of the feast was inaugurat-
ed what is to be known as the “club
pow-wow," where each member tells an
episode of the past year. Each member
is at liberty to invite one guest,and these
ladies also participate in the story-tel-
ling. This was carried out with great
spirit, the anecdotes being most interest-
ing. There are no set speeches, no re-
sponse to toasts. «
The work done by this organization
during the year, is earnest and thought-
ful, and this is especially intended as a
time of relaxation. The nearest ap-
proach of anything especially prepared.
for the occasion, was a dialect story, and
amost amusing' account in rhyme, by
the club poet, of the confederation of
women‘s clubs at Philadelphia.
ST. PETERS FESTIVAL.
The Members of the German Evangelical

members of the Alien Singing society,
however, carried off the honors of the
evening, and the selections given by
them were unquestionably the moat ar-
tistic male choruses r-vcr heard in town.

IMPORTANT POSTAL DECISION.
Railway Postal Film. Nina: Accept All
Prepaid Mail Matter.
An item has been going the rounds of
the papers in all parts of the United
States to the effect that postal clerks on
railroad trains have been forbidden to
receive mail matter for posting on the
trains. Where the item originated is not
known. It is supposed to have been
started by some railway postal clerk in
the west who took that method of shirk-
ing a part of his duty. General Superin-
tendent James E. White has issued an or-
der calling attention to section 687 of the
postal laws and regulationsmhich makes
it Obllgn'nry upon postal clerks to accept
all matter offered them at their cars,
upon which postage has been prepaid
and forward some to destination. The
section further provides that a postal

company Discussed. ,
A meeting of the stockholders of the
Norwalk and South Norwalk Electric»
Light company was held at Middleman. I ,
yesterday. to discuss the slabs of the 4
company and the application made to
the courts for a receiver. , g
The general impression was theta "a.

help matters. The stockholdelam not ,
willing to stand an usessmentnnd «SF:
new power machinery will have to be
put in to run the Norwalk StreetRall-
road company’s electric system, this
matter can b: more readily adjumd,
through a receiver’s hands. The
company's trouble arose through
a dispute over the propriety of
the charges made by the General EM!)
tric company, when the plant Was re-
built after the fire. The Norwalk'com-
pony have an ample income andthe rev
ceiversbip will only be temporary. It in
probable that both sides will agree upon
a receiver before the case comes into
court, Friday. The General Electric
company are willing to compromise in
the matter, and also to deduct a sum-
cient amount from their claim tomato
it proper and acceptable to the Electric
Light company.
These from Norwalk who attended
the meeting, yesterday, were John S.
Seymour, E. O. Keefer, Charles Olms-
tead and James E. Ells. It is probable
that Edward T. Jackson, treasurer of the
company, will be the receiver chosen.
