When the excellent weather of yester-
day is taken into consideration. the
butchers of Norwalk acted wisely and
well in postponing their barbecue from
last week. This was in evidence in the
largo number who attended the festivi-
ties at the Fair Grounds. It is estima-
tsd that nearly 3.000 people were pres-
ent. and the affair resembled very much
the old~thne county fair.
Those who snd'ered from . parched
throats found no trouble in quenching
their thirst; those who hungered had the
requirements of their nature satisfied.
and there was no complaint heard from
any source.
_ The City of Norwalk baud furnished
music on, the grand stand between the
events. and there was dancing in 'the
pavilion during the afternoon and even-
lug.
Thomas F. Henebry. of Daubury, who
did the barbecuing. said the crowd con-
sumed 6,300 pounds of beef, sixty-eight
lambs. 1,500 loaves of broad. and a bar-
rel of salt. The meat was roasted in
two fifty- foot trenches, about four feet
in width and as many in depth. over on
the south side of the grounds. where
the fires were kindled shortly after mid-
night. yesterday morning. Five cords
of hickory wood. eighty» bushels of char-
coal and twenty barrels of shavings were
used. The meat was seasoned with no
pounds of butter. fifty-two gallons of
vinegar and pepper ad libitum. Mr.
Henehry had twelve men to assist him.
The huge sandwiches. into which
people converted the bread and meat.
were washed down with frothy beer.
Over on the plaza back of the gran.-
staud were all sorts of gambling games.

Court Burton and Jack Weston were
there with their "African Dodger," and
a tent show where some burnt-cork ar-
tists thrummod the banjo and sung an~
tedllivian songs had a rather precarious
existence. .. The Norwnlk Fire Police
were on the grounds to keep the track
clear and preserve order.
The events of the day were close and
exciting. and the sporting clement had
their expectations fully met in the bicy-
cle and horse races. and in the ball game.
There were no protests in the bicycle
races but what were quickly and satis-
factorily settled. and with the exception
of a dispute in regard to the racing of
the black mare. Ellardella. which result-
ed in her being withdrawn from the
race, there was perfect harmony among
the horsemen.

Today. the anniversary of the birth
of a centenarian is celebrated in Nor-
walk. Mrs. l’hmhe Crabbe has reached
the remarkable age of one hundred
years. in good bodily health and in all
possession of all her mental facnl es.
Her son. Captain Crabbe. formerly of
Norwalk. and many other friends and
relatives are rejoicing with the honored
lady in attaining‘ her century-mark.
”wing to the illness of Mrs. Valleau at
the present home of Mrs. Crabbe in Mar.
win street. congratulations are being
offered at Councilman George 8. Trow-
bridgc's residence. 18 Baviland street.
where the well-preserved old lady is
receiving numerous friends. .
Mrs. Crabbe was born in North Stam-
ford iu 1797. ina farm-house near the
cemetery. Her parents were Ebenezer
Weed and Elizabeth Curtis. Her father
combined shoe-making and farming. as
a means of livelihood. in 1830 Miss
Phrnbe Wood was marriod' to David
Crabbe. who, like her father, was a
farmer and cobbler. but added to his nt-
tainmonts in those lines the trade of car-
pentsring. He was born in 1800 and died
at the age of eighty-eight. Mrs. Crabbe
; has few descendants. She had two
daughters and ' one son.
One daughter died in infancy.
She has only one grandchild. Mrs.
Frank Morgan. of- Dinbury. daughter
of Captain Crabbe. Mrs. Morgan has
three children. great-grandchildren of
Mrs. Crabbe. Apheto taken last your
shows the four generations. For years
Mrs. Crabbe noted the part of a mother
to a niece. her brother's child. who lived
with her until her marriage. but is now
dead.
A Sentinel reporter called on the old
lady a few days ago. She is brightaud
well-looking. One would never have
taken her to be within a few days of the
hundredth anniversary of her birthday.
She likes to receive callers. and told

owing to the fact that several important
propositions are to come before it. The
most important is to formulate plans for
a state insurance fund. ,
Uddfollowship has been a great factor
in elevating the negro race in this coun-
try since it was started. which was at a
time when the negro was considered a
special creation to act as a slave to the
survival of the fittest. From that it has
risen until it is the strongest society of
the race, and its members are showing
the world that all they want is an equal
chance, and they will will prove them
selves not indie thieves and vagabonds.
but men and women of intelligence.
I do not assert that all the virtue is on
the vices on the side of the whihpmpie.
We have bad and vicious white people
andbad and vicious black people; but
[do solemnly protest when any one at-
lcmptstopnt us all on an equality on
account of our color. I do not bind my-
self to the sins of my race; but the man
who issomean of soul. so disemd of
mind that he can't recognise virtue and
intelligence because it is under a black
skin. is not fit to come up to the level of
of a decent man's contempt.
It is a mistake to think that the color
ed [ample want more than other citlsens
of this country. All we want is protec-
tion to our rights as free and lawsbid-
ing citizens._ More we do not ask; less
will not satisfy us It is frequently
quoted that the negro has as many
rights asacitizen of this countryas a
white man has; that the constitutional
amendments guarantee him all the
rights of citizenship. Now. while I ad.
mil my ignorance and limited know-
ledge on legal jurisprudence. I do know
that no value can be attached to any en-
actment where there is do executive
force behind it. We are aware that our
color is a bar to us; but when our post-
master genersl refused to appoint Mr.
Lyons to the Augusta post-oliloe and
stated indcfonseof hissefuoalthat he
considered a postmaster asoclal position
and would appoint no colored men where
they had not previously been. it was
going a little farther than the rest,
who likely had the same reasons. but
refrained from speaking them. The
race would not have esmcted so much
were it not for the promises made
before election. which have never been
fulfilled.
It is often remarked that this is a
white man's country; but history will
repeat in time. During the war. when
the negro went to the front, he was
told to stand back: that it was a white
man's war. But when the government
reeled and tattered the cry went up for
12 thiopia, who willingly went to the
front and helped to place the gm-
mcnt on a solid rock of constitutional
law and civil liberty. And yet this
same government stands idly by and
permits her citizens to be outraged and
shot down like dogs. in many cases. for"
modestly attempting to eserehve their},
rights of elective franchise; :but parties.
like individuals. have a day of reckoning.
It was stated by a congressman from
near here, a short time ago. that the
negro should vote the liermblican ticket
whctln-r he was lersoually benefited or
not. The racehns shown its grateful-
naas for over twontydivc years and the
sinner they realize that all the Republi-
can. the Democratic. or any other party
wants of them is their vote. just so soon
will they be considered of some import-
ance as American ciiimns.
