tainly a noble record for a State in
these degenerate days.
The unwarranted assaults being made
week by week on agentlenian of this
city are ii complete illustration of the
spirit and disposition of their author and
a representation of the villiany which
would be wrought if the opportunity
littered. Instead of injuring the gentle-
tnan and the concern he represents.
however. the vile tirades react on their
author. and have disgusted everybody.
Business men who are furnishing the
ways and means whereby this raving
crankds enabled to promulgate his doc—
trines and give vent to his splecn ought
to consider well their part in it. They
are the aidcis and shelters of a nuisance
and parties to a nichuietit which aims
to destroy the business of the place. A
little devotion to principle on their part
would be more becoming than their
truckling loa would—be destroyer. and
would have a healthy intluencc that is
very much needed. l‘andcring to an
evil may he considered business wisdom
by some. but cxperience ought to have
taught them better by tltis time. They
cannot afford toussist in tearing down
the industries of this city.

The agitation against the nuisance of
the railroad whistle is spreading. hoc-
tors are talking up the subject and say
the provoking noise has a hitherto nn-
, suspected part in the spread of minimum.
The public is very restive under its
growing annoyance.
But the whistle isn‘t blown for fun.
It takes a trifle of steam: it takes the at-
tention of the engineer. it is an extra la-
bor. and it is purely unproductive of
any good at all. It simply. when it has
any useful eil'ect. prevents harm. It
has not a single positive merit. The
reason for blowing it is the grade cross-
ing. That is its sole explanation and
cause.
Now the grade crossing is the greatest
wrong that the public accepts Without
protest. Its tolerance of that sort. of
death-trap is incomprehensible. People
must travel by common roads. These.
indeed. are said to be a tit gauge of the
development of a people‘s civilization.

often approaching it by a curve or a hill
or in some way to make collision prob-
able. if a train is due. There isn‘t a day
when some one is nrit killed at such
spots. The man who lived with an open
well hole on his premises. or who kept a
ahot gun loaded capped and cocked in
the front hall of his house. or who set
the can besides the kitchen stove. would
be reckoned insanely careless. 'But the
community that rrnits its roads to

inevitable deaths that ensue in most»
queues as the result of “accident.“ and
prides itself on its highways.

Slaves of Quinlne.
"Have you noticed the growing use
of quinine?“ a druggist in the vicinity
of the Fifth Avenue Hotel asked last
night. At the same time he bowed and
smiled to a tall. red-whiskered man who
strolled in.
“Just watch this customer." he said.
The man was very thin and cadaverous
looking. Without saying a word he
walked up to the soda fountain. and the
ho drew out- a pill box. poured three
pilTs into the palm of the customer‘s hand.
set a glass of mineral water in front of
him. and turned to the next customer.
The tall man swallowed the pills. drank
the water. turned on his heel. and stalk-
ed away with another pleasant nod to
the proprietor.
“Tuat costs him a dollar and forty
cents a week." said the proprietor, “and
before long it will kill him. He started
to take one five-grain pill eve night’
about six months ago: he now ta es fif-
teen grains a night before he goes home.
so that it will brace him up for his dinner.
Within a month he will be taking twenty
‘ns a night. Of course he takes it at
home besides what he gets here. I‘ve
gone out of my wa three of four times
to explain to him thehad a deal

Oyster Shells in t‘ourt.
Tuesday the case of Ira E. Petty vs.
Jacob \‘onbuskirk of Five Mile River.
which began before Judge Ely on the
llth inst..was terminated by a verdict
for l‘etty of $3.20 and costs. The suit
was brought by l‘etty to recover dam~
ages for o ster shells taken by \‘onbns~
kirk as t e agent of Smith Brothers.
Smith Brothers employed Mr. Petty to
take tip oysters for them oil“ their
grounds. In doing thisa la 1 uan-
tity of shells were also remov . bese
l‘etty separated from the oysters and
placed in apile on the shore. “'hen
planting time came Yonhuskirk was sent
by Smith Brothers to take these shells
and put them on their grounds. Mr.
l'etty told Yonbuskirk to let them alone
as they belonged to him. \‘otibiiskirk
did not heed this warning. hence the
suit. The Smith Bmlhers claimed that
the shells belonged to them according to
custom. Petty claimed when there was
no stipulation to the contrary it was the
custom for parties taking up oysters off
of private grounds. to have whatever
shells were caught. He further claimed
that some of the shells taken were obtain-
ed from other places than the Smith
Brothers grounds. The case occupied
two days in its trial. and many \viinem-
es were examined. .-\ti appeal to the
Superior t‘ourt was taken. . . H. Light.

It will be good news to more than one
man whose wife or mother has not
traded his last winter‘s suit for some-
thing like the vases in the Danbury
man‘s story to learn that the styles for
the coming fall and winter are very
little changed from those of last year.
Those who wish to dress correctly will
likewise learn with satisfaction that the
leading characteristic of prevailing forms
is quietness: that there are ~no loud
shapes or patterns. Authorities agree
that the time-honored “claw hammer“
cost will still be the correct things for
full evening dress, and the material will
be a fine wale diagonal worsted for
young men and broadcloth for older
ones. For fulldress at day receptions
and the like the Prince Albert WI“ be
worn exclusively. with trousers of an
inconspicuous stripe or check and lighter
in color than the coat. For half dress
the Prince Albert suit of light-colored
material will be generally worn. and for
morning occasions the cutaway of four
of five buttons. taking the place of the
threebutton cutaway. For business a
.frock coat, four buttoned and worn
with vest and transom of the same
pattern will be the correct thing. The
popular overcoat will be the same as last
season and many seasons before. the
“Chesterfield.” It will be cut a trifle
longer than last winter. A double-
breaated sack overcoat will be worn in
very cold weather and the ulster with a
cape will also be seen.

The Norwich Bulletin says: The sales
of manufactured goods in this neigh-
borhood are improving. and the sales in
July are said to have been greater than
for the corresponding month in the year
for five years. The prices are ruinously
low. but the goods on hand are being
rapidly disposed of. The iiiaiiufaclur
iiig business promises to improve this
fall.

No invention of the nineteenth cen-

household ccoinitiiy or coufcired iiioreof
a lii‘tlt'lll on humanity than the sewing
tiniclitiic.
The first productions were crud.» “till
uncouth iii the catrcinc. and it was 1‘“
served for American Shlil-lillll ingenuity
to bring forth a machine i f any pracli~
i‘ul value.
In order to appreciate the great ad-
vancement which has taken place it is
only necessary to compare one of the
machines built during the infancy of the
invention with one of the latest improv-
cil Light Running .\’.-'w Home.“
All the really good {mints contaitn d in
other iiizicliitics have been utilized iii its
construction Many new iuiprovi-iiicnts
and devicrs have also been added. the
result of which is a machine as nearly
perfect as it is possible to make one.
For simplicity. durability. case of
management and capacity for work. the
Light Running New Home has no rival.
and the happy possessor of one may rest
assured that lie or she has the very best
the world affords. See advertisement
