In the opinion of the Norwiilk public
the horse railway managers should have
used their 16 per cent. earnings of the
persent year in laying a double track. in:
stead of paying it out in dividends. There
is no end of growling among our best
people because of no cars on arrival of
. trains at South Norwalk. and the horse
railway must prepare for some sort of
opposition ere long if the eviljustly corn-
plnined of and so long endured isnot
remedied.—-Gaz 'tlf‘.
Our attention at the fair last week was
attracted by it remarkable exhibition of
mechanical drawing-i from the office of
A. M. \Vooster. patent lawyer and so-

were really works of art. and Were
awarded s special diploma by the Com-
mittee. Mr. \Vooster also exhibited 'a
copy of the drawing of the patent grant—
ed to Abraham Lincoln. This was a
matter of considerable interest as it is
not generally" known that the martyr
President had ever turned his attention

cited. Kitty l’atchcn‘s numerous
friends expected her l ) repeat her per~

the race after losing too heats. She had
a slight lead. and was trotting squarely,

through. and he had to stay there until
within a few lengths of the wire. when
Minnie Wicks broke. and be secured sec?

of feet of Winning the heat. ‘ Time 3.- l.
The start Mr. Dudgeou got in this heat
made friends for him. and if wishes
made horses trottcrs McLaughlin would
have distanced the whole lot.
The start in the fourth heat was even
more unfavorable to McLaughlin than
in the third. and the grand stand indig-
nation found emphatic expression.
lint. Mr. Dudgeon smiled. and set-
tied down to business. and soon had Mo-
Lauglilin going at a rat id rate, and sl-
inost before any body could understand
how it was done he was in the lead.
When he passed the stand the first tune
the people were on their test and cheer-
ing. and when he came in ahead at the
end of the heat. he was given a perfect
ovation. Thisheat was troll in 2.38}.
The judges then declared t. e race std-
journcd till 10.80 Saturday. ,
Each horse having won a heat the in~
terest to know the result. was indeed
lively. Backers of the several horses
still clung to their favorites. but. with
less confidence than before McLaughlin
showed his staying qualities. The ad—
mirers of thclsttsr and friends of Mr.
Dudgeon were quite jubilant and only
regretted that darkness made I pmtponc-
meut necessary. as they felt sure alc-
ui'lould win if the race could be finished
t en. -
It is said that after the Friday beats it
was agreed on the part of the owner of
Breeze Medium to not beat Kitty Patch-
en. the owner of the latter being confi-
dent of her ability to beat the other
horsos. \Vs have no way of authenticat-
ing this report. So far as Breeze Med-
ium is concerned she seemed to be driven
to win. thou h some think she could
have taken t 0 second best. when she
was pressing McLaughlin so closet . If
the owner of Kitty Patchen iutsn ed to
buy the race, he loads a mistake .in not
taking into consideration the or
McLaughlin. We do not vouch for the
truth 0! any or this report. but it comes
from s source that sppssrs to bsrslinble;
At the appointed time Saturday there
was quite so stbndsocs to witness the
finish of the race. and all the horses
were on the truck. It vrss reported
only in the dsy that Kitty Putehcu had
