Two Swedes. said to he Georgetown farmers. came to Norwaik, yesterday and imbibed so freely that they were unable to navigate. and both laid down near the. Norwalk depot to sleep all the, effects of the drink. Before their trip into dream land. one of them pur» chased three quarts or NUI'WltIk whlsn key and but It. into a satchel which he had. He also purchased a dozen or two of bananas and carried them in a Duper bag. The pair went to sleep . during the morning and did not awake until late In the afternoon. When they came out of their trip to dream land there was a surprise awaiting them, . for the three quarts of whiskey‘was gone and the satchel was full of the bananas instead of being full of fire water. The owner of the whiskey when he awoke proceeded in a matter of fact way to open the satchel to get one of the quarts. As he. opened the satchel the sight that met his eyes was a. very diil'erent.one.than what he had expected to see. His eyes stuck out several inches in amazement. He closed the satchel and then reopened it to see that his eyes had not deceived him. He saw the bananas and when it came to his blurred senses that he had been robbed he began a tirade of oaths that would be distinctly out of place in print. Ills hat. too, which had just been purchased, was gone The loan of both of the articles did not seem to discomlit him much, for he im» mediately purchased two more quarts of rum and with his companion ho boarded the 6:02 train from Norwulk and went tip the, Danbury division, evl‘ dentiy bound for home. The loss of his whiskey is due to a hobo who came along while the. two SWodes were asleep. The knight of the road quick ly extricutcd the three bottles of whirl key from the satchel and jokingly fill- ed it with bananas. Picking up the man‘s but he stuck it in his own coat and with two of the bottles in one hand and the other bottle in his left hand he proceeded up the track through the tunnel on a run. soon disappearing.

He spoke pleiis- antly as he passed the watchmen and other employees of the mansion. reach- Ing his office was joined almost immed- lately by Secretary Long, who did not go to (‘anton to take part in the fun- tt‘al ceremonies. Soon afterward. Sena~ tor (‘uliom called to pat. his respects and following him tame Senator Proc- tor one of the president‘ :1 tlose person~ at friends.

The assas- sination of President Lincoln was an act of fanaticism purely, growing out of the passions excited by the war. The actor, John Wilkes Booth. :1 highly-wrought and ill-balanced tiav lure, a passionate devotee of the Southern cause had brooded on the great conflict, which then was trappi- iy ended. He shot the president as the latter was in his box in Ford’s Theatre, in Washington. Securing entrance from the rear, he approached the president from behind, tiring but one shot. He leaned over the rail of the box to the stage and made his es- cape through the excited actors. but was finally overtaken and shot. in a barn by one of the private soldiers of the company in pursuit. President Garfield was shot July 2 1881 at the Baltimore and Potomac railWay station as .he was leaving for a trip to New York and New England. As he and Secretary Blaine were pass- ing through the ladies’ waiting room. two pistol shots were fired. one of which took effect in the president's back. There followed a long period of wavering between life and death; he died September 19. Uulteau. his assassin, was unquestionably a maniv ac. His exclamation on doing the deed was that he was a "stalwart and that Arthur was now president." By this it is plain that he had become overwrought as a result of the bitter political quarrel that had been going on between the president and Senator Conkilng. with Vice President Arthur us sympathlzer of Senator Conkling. The quarrel began over, the appoint- ment of the collector of customs 111 New York, which the president had made in opposition to Senator Couk- ling' a desire So the quarrci was pure- Iy one of the spoils system, and one intolvlng the feudal principle the sen ator lioldlng that be controlled the ap pointtnents in his state or ‘feof." (lulteau‘ 11 statements was that the idea of removing the president came to him 111 this wise: “.Mr Conkliug resigned on Monday May 16 1881.‘ 011 the following Wed nesday l was in bed; I think i retired about 8 o'clock. i felt distressed and perplexed on account of the political , situation. and l retired much earlier than usual. i felt wearicd in mind and body, and l was in bed about 9 o’clock. and l was thinking over the political situation, and the idea passed through my brain that if the president was out of the way, everything would go bet- ter." He further declared he shot the president without. murderous or ma. licious intent, and denied any legal liability. The greatest freedom was allowed him in court, and the only conclusion was that he was really in» sane. although not. legally so by any dciinitiou that could be applied. lie wont about the crime with the utmost deliberation, procuring a. pis- tol and repeatedly practicing with it lie followed the president from time to time with the purpose of shooting him, once in a church, but the sight of the president‘s sick wife prevented him. Another time he followed him to a house of a friend. The last time he went to the railway station, know- ing that the president would be there. These two assassinations are of some what the saute kind. Both were com- mitted bv fanatics and it is a question if both the men were not so ill-bal- anced 3510 be. beyond the line of re- sponsibility. In Booth's crime there appeared a larger element of revenge. Guiteau persisted to the last in main- taining that be and been inspired by Divine Providence and that his con- ception was based on a political neces- sity. He had been himself an office- seeker in vain and In his disordered mind be identified himself with the. Conkling quarrel and became a prey to the mania of murder. The assault on President McKinley it entirely removed from the class in which it might be. easy to place the crimes of both Booth anti (lulteau. This assassination belongs to the cat- egory of that of the president of the French republic, Sadi-Carnot. the Aus~ trian Empress Elizabeth and King Humbert, all crimes of recent perpe- tration. This man struck at Presi- dent McKinley as these other assas- sins struck at their victims. whether kings, cmprr-sses or presidents, mean- ing to strike through them as the vis- Ill]? heads of the. state a blow at all authority.
