tion to the brass foundry of the Lock
Company. It is to be extended to Wa-

teen more brass moulders. A sevent ~
five foot chimney will alao be bui t.
These additions are nrcma in order to
afford the facilities to meet t eir increas.
ing orders for bras- goods. Another ev-
idence of prosperity most gratifying to
stockholders is a dividend of three per
cent. the third of similar amount ds~
clarod in lei-than a year. All this seems
like a return of the prosperous days of
ore. Henry Seymour has the contract

As for as heard from. Willis Garvey.

is champion banana cater. Lust Satur-
day somebody in the shop was hazardous
enough to bet him that he could not eat
a dozcn bananas in twenty minutes.
Willie jumped at the chance for feast
and fame. and in six minutes nine of the
bananas had gone to that bourne from
which as bananas they never could re-
turn, and in fourteen minutes the othcr
three had gone the way of all bananas
that have ever made the acquaintance of
Willie. This happened about 11 o‘clock.
and at 12 the champion took his lunch as
usual. It proved no test at all of Gar-
vey's banana-eating capabilities, and a
syndicate of wealthy but curlers is pro-
posed to challenge him to eat a bunch in
an hour. provided the curlers can get a
charter to issue bonds of amount suffi-
cient to purchase the bananas.

complcxion. side whiskers. is a little
bald. and hair rather longer than usually
worn. Prnlmblv about forty-five years
of age. The body had been in tho water
but a day or two at the longest. and
from tho position of the bands and arms
it is probable that his last act was the
grasping of some object in the water.

body. and considering the case re uiring

OPEN LETTERS.
An Oyster-man’s Defense.
Editors SBNTINEL:—I have seen in the
items of some of the Norwalk papers
how I was accused of stealing oysters. I
wish to tell the readers of your paper
that I was arrested for stealing oysters
on the same ground that! worked on
alight years ago and my father hsswork-
twent dive ears more or le- every
year, an whic has been worked on
a many oystermen from Sou
Norwalk — ground that , was always
natural oyster ground. as oysters set
there most every year. I do not think
that any farmer from Pennsylvania
should come here and stake off natural
oyster ground that men have always got
sliving on. Yours.

A Mother on the Over lllver

Editors SENTINEL :—I was great! In -
prised to learn through our Gazette
" That some of Mr. Wighain‘s best friends
think it would be a at mistake to come
back to the school. Iiagosltion would be
made most uncomfo lo. and his influ-
ence greatly impaired.” As a prwf the
offer the fact that out of 640 scholars i:
the district the average attendance is
185. Who is to srsistin the inconsis-
ten of making his position uncomfort-
. ~ should judge this simple refer-
such a state of feeling was inten-
ls the first kick at the stone to
o a burden. and result in making
the uncomfortable position referred to.
Does the writer of that article for one
moment believe the teacher only respon-
sible for the non-attendance of his pupils.
or of these 840 minus 185 P The refor-
mation should commence outside the
school room. Parents tell their children
to go uiiod' m-80hml. and claim their
responsibility ends there: "they choose
to go fishing, boating. oran
idloness, the teacher is in fan n—sbould
make a change next term. Parents. cit-
izens. awake to your responsibility as
such. See that the 040 children in the
Over River School District go to the
school room each day and remain six
hours. You will then find your average
attendance very much enlarged. Your
teachers will be present read todo their
