discdurse last- evcning, for the pastyear,
stated that six incinbers had removed
front Norwalk and 152- had died as
against three last year. Eighteen new
members had been received into the
church. The most surprising statement
of all is that, in the Sunday school,
with a membership ranging from 250 to
315, not. a single death has occurred
among the scholars for the past three
years. Fifty-five hundred dollars are
in hand and pledged toward liquidating
the church debt of $9,000. The church
rc cipts the past year were over $51,000

Captain Philemon H. Smith died
last night at his Norwalk residence, the
Carter homestead on Beldcu avenue,
at the age of 77 years. Captain Smith
was well-known among steamboat
men, having been for many years
treasu rcr of the line running the Bose-
dalo and Idlcwild, with headquarters
in New York. For the past two years,
however, he had been an invalid and
an intense sufferer from an incurable
malady, and about 20 months ago,
moved, with his family, to Norwalk,
where he could enjoy rest and quiet.
For the past two weeks he had been
confined to his bed, and his. death
came upon him peacefully and quietly,
liko arofreshiug sloop, while he was
reading a newspaper. He leaves a
wife, one son and two daughters. No
arrangements for the funeral have yet.
bccn'made.
“I think it’s mighty small business
for a military company to refuse to
grant an old soldier the little privilege
of blacking boots in the lobby of the
.ball room at their. annual ball, and
give theprivilege to a. grecnhorn Ital-
ian,” rcmarkedJohn Bonk the other
day ; and in explanation he said that
was just what the managers of Com-
pany F’s ball did on New Year’s night.
Mr. Bonk is a war veteran still suffer-
ing from wounds received. in the ser—
vicc ; is a member of the Grand Army
.of the Republic, and hence a... comrade
of Captain Rose, who also went into
the war and although not, wounded, he
came .out with the distinction of being
the “baby of the regiment," and even
if the fraternal spirit of their Comrade-
ship failed .to- onlist Captain Rose’s
influence toward securing for. Comrade
. louk the poor. privilege of shining
shoes at the ball, it wOuld seem that the
fact ofthe Captain being an American
Mechanic, whose principles pronounce
for “America for Americans,” might
have induced him to protest against
favorin the Italian. - ‘

The County Commissioners resumed
their. hearing in the Croagh and J essc
cases this morning,r at. the council chain—
bers, South Norwalk. Rev. Mr.Biddlo
stated that he had no further witnesses
and theirgcaso was closed. Mr. Hurl—
butt proceeded to read a copy of the
Gazmrn’s account. of the killing of
Jack Bartram, when Mr. Biddle ob-
jected for the reason that the editor
was not present to be sworn and cross~
examined as to the correctness of the
copy. Mr. Hurlbutt was immediately
sworn and offered to state under oath
that the copy was correct a nd proceeded
to prcseut tho article. The point in
presenting the article was for the pur-
pose of contradicting tho testimony of
Mr. Dunning, who had testified that
Bartram ‘ and Ayres had been killed
coming out of one of the saloons. The
account proved the well known fact.
that Bart-ram was killed at the point
where the tower house now stands, and
that Ayres was killed while stepping
from the platform cast of the Adams
express company’s ofiice.
, Tho first witness for the defense was
Mr. Israel Davis the clothier, wlioupoii
examination by Mr. Frost testified. that
he had lived in the city for 18 years
and was acquainted with the locality of
tho saloons and thought. they were in a
suitable place. His place of business
was diagonally across from the depot
and in sight of Mrs. Creagh’s saloon,
and he had never known of anyone be-
ing killed while crossing the track to
and from the depot. Cross-examined
by Mr. Biddle, witness testified that he
saw nothing unsuitable about the loco--
tion. He thought the \Vashington
street; crossing was dangerous at certain
hours of the day and thought that if
the crossing Was removed it would be
to the advantage of the city. Cross-
examined by Mr. North he testified
that he had often crossed at this cross-
ing himself. Re-dircct by Mr. Hurl-
butt, witness thought that on accOunt
of the wagon crossing at this crossing
it made it more dangerous than at
other _ points. Mr. Lawrence Cavali-
augh was next examined by Mr. Frost.
Ho testified that he was employed by
the railroad company 29 years, and was
on duty 16 hours a day and sometimes
24- hours.
duty he never knew of anyone being
injured in going to these. saloons dur-
ing his entire service on the road. He
was on duty when Bartram was killed.
Ho had been crossing from South Main
street and was killed at the point now
occupied by the tower house.
crossing was not fenced at that time
at that point. He had no knowledge of
Ayrcs death.
H e did not think this location was as
dangerous as the. Danbury crossing be-
low tho depot. By Mr. Hurlbutl. ”Wit.-
ncss thought \Vasliiiigtou street cross-
ing more dangerous than this crossing,
more trains crossing at VVushingtou
street. '
Cross examined by Mr. Biddle, wit-
ness did not think that: \Vasliiiigton
street was less dangerousto pedestrians
on account of the gates. Would be in'
favor of removing
strcct crossing. Did not think the lo-,'
cation would be as dangerous as itL
would be if located on South Main,E
street, or \Vashington street, because
there were more trains and wagons and:
moro confusion at. the. \Vashington.
street crossing.
Redirect by Mr. Frost. \Vitness’
agreed that if :1. person never went near"
a railroad track he would be in less dun.
ger. Witness thought n. man coming
or going from these saloons could see:
a train farther away than he could at
the Washington street crossing. if the
train was coming from the cast.
In answer to Mr.Nort-h witness thought
people would cross if the saloons were
removed, and in answer to Mr. Hurl-
butt, thought that if any other busi-
ness was carried on there, just as many
pcoiilc. would cross.

A well-known local sporting man
this morning entered Grumman’s place
on Main street and was amazed when
George Allen handed him an owl and
told him to take it away, or it would
soon begin to ferment. The visitor
asked what he meant, and was made to
believe he had brought it in late on Sat—
urday night», after returning from a
“reception" whore. the guests had bo-
comc bcfoggi-d in intellect, and asked
the privilege of “leaving this turkey
here till. I call for it. 1 won it at a
raffle.” The gentleman is now wonder—
ing if anything also of an owly nature
was thrust upon him at that reception.
When he learns the truth be will be
relieved to know that. the owl was left.
there to be. called for by Fred Lock-
wood, thc taxidermist. for mounting, .
and that Allen saw in it good material
for a joke.
