Information was received in Norwalk
shortly before noon today that a hearing
will take place this afternoon before the
Judiciary Committee. in Hartford, for
the purpose of considering an act to re-
peal the not giving the old soldiers and
sailors authority to collect their unpaid
bounty claims by salt. The object of
the proposition before the committee is,
it is understood. to prevent these who
claim a right to collect bounty from doe
ing so. The result of the hearing will
be awaited with deep interest by a large
number of old soldiers in the Norwalks
who hold claims for bounty. They are
largely represented by Attorneys Joseph
A. Gray and George A. Honnecker.
When questioned regarding the amount
of the claims in the town of Norwalk by
a Sentinel reporter this afternoon Select.
mun Selleck said that he. could not say
at this time just what the sum is. H('
said that he was under the impression
that the town had paid claims amount-
ing to about $270,000.

To admirers pf fine Hamburg Edgings and iusertiugs we es-
pecially address ourselves. The success of previous seasons in
the embroidery business has induced us to make an extra effort
this season, and we can safely say that the lines which we are
now showing are far superior to anything we have ever shown
before, or has ever been shown in town. The assortment is
larger, the goods are finer and the patterns are handsomer than
ever before. The edgings and insertings are in Cambric, Nain-
sook and Swiss; also matched sets in the same'qualilitics, linen
effects in edgiugs and insertiugs and all-overs. Novelty braids,
the newest thing in trimmings. All—overs in Cambric, Naili-
