ure. The armory was very handsomely

officers of the rcgstuent were present.
Did the thought everoccur to anybody
that South Norwalk would rise to the
honorable as well as enviable distinction
of furnishing the Queen of England with
oysters? Yet such is the fact. and her
Royal Highness now luxuriates upon
the delicious bivalve, and we should out
be Iurprined soon to see a sign in that fa~
vored city bearing the euphonious iu-
scriptiou—"Mr. Merrill. oyster fumisher

Well known in lliriiiingham. where he
was employed some two years or so since
as a clerk by t‘. ll. Boothe. He Will be
remembered as :i very showy son of :1
voting mall. inking well with ccrtain
lliritiingliam daiiisi-ls. with one of whom
he had a marriage engagement but which
was broken oil by the friendly interposi-
iioiis of the lady‘s friends who thought
the young man was living altogethertoo
fast for his means. Leaving Mr. lloothe‘a
store llainm Went to New York, where
he. got a situation as night clerk in a
prominent hotel at .a'salary of about $90
per month. and was so well liked that
he could have easily obtained $10”. He
did not like night work inf that sorin so
he left New York for New Haven. enter-
ing into the employ of Proctor & Mc-
Guire. and afterwards Bolton& Neely,
from which hitter place he migrated to
Bridgeport, where he obtained employ-
ment with \V. H. Hall & Co. at a salary
of only $15 per week. He has. it seems.
been living a fast life in connection with
speeded women and with the usual re-
sult. ,

fitted up in a very neat and pretty style.
The ceiling has been very prettily pe'r-
ed and the sidewalls nicely paint . The
fixtures are of the most modern pattern.
They are of ash and cherry, very elab-
orately painted'and highly polished and
arranged in the most conveinent mau-
tiers.
handles, and work upon the easiest plan.
The bottles are of the latest pattern and
labeled Iplainly and neatly. The pres-
cription desk. which is in the rear of
the store, is of the same material as the
fixtures. and adds very much to the ap-
pearance of the store. ADufl’er soda
fountain, which is in keeping with the
general fittings. is to occupy the from
end of the north Counter. and the draft
tubes and syrup receptacles have been
put in with a special view to purity and
cleanliness. The store will be lighted
with gas. Its location is a decidedly
advantageous one; its proprietor is a
thoroughly skilled apothecary. a cour~
wool and obligiag gentleman. and enters
upon his barium career with bright
commotion. i

work puiiicg up the fcncc around the

by the gale of last week. left their tools
initlie building. Monday morning. when
they went to \\'111k. they found that
some oncliad gathered the tools together
on the workbench and then set tire to it.
Some of the tools were ruined. and the
rest bridly damaged. It is a wonder that
the building was not destroyed.
. \\'ithin a few weeks a conclusion will
probably be reached concerning the
number of regiments which are to go
into camp the coming fall. As a large
number of uniforms require replacing.
the military deptirmcut is . liesitatiug
whether the four regiments. tbe l-‘ifth
battalion and artillery shall be ordered
to Xiautic. To put the entire. brigade
into the field for a week would exhaust
tliwappropriution. The Niautic camp
is in excellent condition. During the
summer the grounds will be enclosed by
a picket fence.
This week has brought. new develop-
ments in matters pertaining to the hut-
'ers strike. The settlement agreed upon
by the joint committee of the batters so-
cieties and ratified at the mass meeting
of the societies. caused dissatisfaction
because it permitted the trimmers who
worked during the turnout to remain in
the factories—those who were not mem-
hers of the trimmers union on the pay—
ment of the registration fee of 5‘. cents.
and those who were members and had
received aid on the payment of SIG—and
on Tuesday they were all discharged,
on the demand of a committee of the
Ladies Union.
Messrs. \\'. R. Hall & Co. of Bridge-
port certainly are a progressive firm.
They are the acknowledged leaders in
dress goods. silks and all fine goods in
Bridgeport. One great feature of the
house is their constant sale of job lots
and bargains from manufacturers. The
standard of May 2nd thus speaks of
them: “Notwithstanding the loss of
silks by \V. B. Hall &: 00.. the. work of
distribution goes on, and the crowds
which daily visit. the departments for
Small silks, Merveillaux and Radimirs
and the various lines of colored and
black silks show what truthful represen-
tations. reliable goods and polite treat-
ment will do. In the colored dress goodi
sections which directly adjoin the silks,
the crowd is equally great, and the
assortment of summer cashmeres, al-
batros cloths, nuns veilings and the
various new fabrics advertised in our
edition of to—day is conclusive evidence
that this firm known how to provide
for their customers. Xext week will be
what they call manufacturers week,
when many thousand dollars‘ worth of
goods Willbe offered directly from the
mills. Loads of Turkey red tablimzs,
table damasks, shootings and drew
“teens, many of these in short lengths,
but atagmt saving to the purchaser.
Our people appreciate the advantages of
a great establishment likethin. and all
are happy to know that the firm receive
substantial tokens of the appreciation.

Mr. “'11 1111111 llill‘fi'l'il, of this city . is.
prubablv tlic oldcst railroad draw tomb-r
in the lliiitcd Slates. Soon after the
c1 mplctioti of the Ncw Haven railroad
in l‘lfl. he was assigned by the company
in the care of the draw hero. and. \\ tilt
the cxcepiion of one year, he has llt'l‘ll
in cliargc continuously, his pcriod of
servwe c wcring tliit’tyfoitr years.
South of the prcseni draw tlicrc is :1 low
building with four windows and :1 d-~or.
It rrsts upon stone work and is occupied
by Mr. “afford.
the little house to>day and. in reply to '
his questions. tlic aged man said:
“This house stands on what may be i
icruicd ii land miiik of the New York .\*
New Haven road. The stom- work you
ask about is nothing more or lt‘ss‘ than
the pier on which ilic original draw"
stcod when an express train from New
York daslicd into llh‘ watcr and over
fifty persons lost their livcs. By the
way. it is tliirty>two vears io~1lay sincc
that tcrriblc accident occurred."
“\Vliric were you, Mr. llarford. when
the triim ran in?"
“On the draw. and never can I forget
my sensations when that locomotive
rushed towards the chasm 11nd leaped in-
to it. You sce railroad signals were not
as well understood then as now. My
instructions was to give vesscls prefer-
ence if there was ample time before the
arrival of utrain. Such was the case
that morning when I opened the draw.
The tide was falling and a schooner in
attempting to pass through the cast 11p-
eiiing, gn‘unded, and despite our hard
efl‘orts could not be moved forward or
back. Of course I could not close the
draw. Nor could I get ashore to warn E
the train. the rumbling of those wheels
I could hear. The bridge is approach-d
at the west by a sharp curve. so “sharp
indeed that engineers even now caiinot
scethc bridge until they are almost upon
it. The [ruins were not comiwlh-d by rcg-
ulations to stop before cros~ing. The cu>
gine drew nearer and 1 board the
whistle. I knew the speed for ex-
press trains at that point was
about thirty miles an hour. and. at that
rate, it would be impossible for the eu-
gineer. even if he saw the position of
the drawrto avoid a terrible calamity.
\\'hat to do I did not. know. I rushed
to the south end of the draw and
climbed out upon the timbers ready to
jump, something telling me that the
speed of the engine would carry her
across the chasm and striking the draw
would capsule it. In that pasition I was
compelled to gaze at the horrid specta-
cle. So great was the train‘s velocity
that the engine darted entirely across
the opening before it. began to sag. Then
it went down and was instantly out of
sight, followed by the baggage car, two
coaches. and one-half of a third. each
loaded Wllh human beings. Their agm
nizing sbneks I could distinctly hear af-
ter'the cars were submerged. A moment
more and all was still. It. was the still-
ness of death. That moment can never be
effaced from memory. Although
thirty-two years have passed the scene
is as vivid in my mind asit it had
occurred but yesterday. Do you see
that indentation iu the stone work of
the pier near the water line? That’s
.where the head of the locomotive struck
in its fall. A few years after the acci-

There is no «pit-stion about the vessel

she is practically new. and st rongcr cveii
than when first built. The repairs
which have been made are in essential
parts. and With a special view to strength
and safety. livery bearing of the eu-
gine is new, and it has liccn relincd
throughout. Tlieliiill has been strengtlh
cued 1.“ over. and the boiler. which is of
extra quality. iind which has only been
in her for a short time. has been over-
hauled in every part. The whole work
has bccu undcr the constant supervision
of t‘iipt. Harvey, who is a practical man,
and he has spared nothing to make her
iirst class in evey respcct. The saloons
Lave been rcfurnislicd throughout. The
ladies cabin floor is covered with velvet
carpet. and supplicd with handsome and
comfortable chairs. The upper saloon
Iloor is covered with a very pretty pat~
tern of body bruss'els carpets. and the
sails around lls sides tom-bolstered in
corduroy velveteen. and liberally fur-
rushed with easy chairs and new camp
chairs. All parts have been repainted
and dccoruted, so that altogether the
City of Albany is one of the best and
most comfortable steamers ever on the
route between New Yon: and this city,
and we believe will be appreciated and
patronized by the travelling public of
this vicinity.
The vessel is in command of Captain
Harvey, a careful and competent man,
who treats everyboby with the greatest
courtesy. Capt. Peck is pilot. and
everybody knows he understands his
business. Ira Brotherton is mate,
and he understands his duties thorough-
ly. J. H. Bodwell is in his old position
of baggage master and express agent,
and will have the newspaper and con-
fectionery departments. James Adams
has the restaurant, and he has got. it in
fine shape, and if he continues to furnish
meals of so excellent 11 quality and at so
reasonable prices as he did on the first
trip, passengers will take them on board
in preference to any restaurant in the
city. James Hall of the City Hotel, is
proprietor of the sampling department.
but will not tend it'himself. His expe~
rience yesterday afternoon convinced
him that rough weather on the water
does not agree with, and sea sickness he
is satisfied is all the misery humanity
can stand, and more than he ever wants
to experience again.

Home is not home at all without them.
Yet thcymay die and leave the house

are not always to lame when they are
low—spirited and “crom.” They are sick.
