The meeting of the .Ladies’jAssocie‘e'

tion of the Congregationfl church,
which was held on Wednesday after-
noon, was largely attended and the re-
view of the year was most gratifying in

the .. different branches . of...flhni£ifian :

work. That of the King’s Daughters,
was especially encouraging—the “Mis-
sionary Circle” of which, reported over

200 calls made upon the sick and “shut ‘

in” members of the church, and over
$400 raised by the circles comprising
the King’s Daughters, which society
was organized lessthan a year ago.

A meeting will be held this evening
inzthe Methodist church. The services
last evening were of more than ordin-
ary interest and were largely attended.
“Men of all ages as moral and spiritual
forces in the Church and Society”, will
be the subject upon which Mr. Simons,
of the Y. M. C. A. will speak, after
which all will engage in a praise and
prayer service. This being the last ser-
vice for the week of the Week of Pray-
er and of the week. may we not look
for a full attendance? Let the men of
the church so far as possible attend this
meeting and make it one of special in-
terest.

A Mr. Thorne, son-in-law of Langdon
Ketchum, of Saugatuok, drove to Nor-
walk yesterday in alight phaeton. He
left his horse, without hitching, in front
of Glover & Olsen’s shoe store on Main

Street, and during his absence an ox-~

team came along, whose driver, being
an expert gad juggler, snapped his whip
sharply and often, at which Thorne’s
horse took fright and started on a run
toward Mill Hill. In front of John
O’Sullivan’s saloon he collided with a.
junk dealer’s chariot, freeing himself
from the carriage; after which he
dashed up Mill Hill and steered straight
for the public watering—trough, and
took a drink on the Borough. Here he
was captured and led to Dunn’s stables,
where the carriage, which sustained a
broken cross-bar and other slight inju-
ries, was fixed up, and Mr. 'Thorne
started homeward, with two new, strong
halters in the wagon, for future use.

A shrewd looking fekir was in town
yesterday exhibiting a rare animal
which he’carrie'd in a box. It was, an
uncanny looking beast, and by picking
him up by the scruff of his neck and
then stretching his skin, he became so
transparent that one could look right
through him as through a. piece of
stained glass. The beast was half dog,

half cat, half rabbit, half jiboose, half

baked, and the rest mugwump. Its
master professed to be a phrenologist
and fortune teller, and got a good joke
on a local clerk who, started tohhave
some fun with him. The clerk o'on-
sented to have his “past, present and
future” told. The fakir told him to
take off both shoes. This was done.
Then the' fakir quietly remarked: ,‘ ‘You
took off your shoes—that was in the

past; you have your shoes off—this is

the present; you are going to put them
on again—4n the future. Fifty-cents,
please.”

from Danbury Wednesday to her-

'Bethel. As the conductor had received
no' orders to stop and let them Off at
the lake they concluded to get off at
Bethel and walk down the track to
their work. 011 arriving at Bethel,
however, the conductor received tele-
graphic orders to stop at the lake. By
the time he had read the order, the
workmen were alighting from the rear
end of the smoking car, onto the depot
platform, coming out in single file and
heading toward the engine, when Con-
ductor. Dyas intercepted the leaders
and told them to get aboard again, as
he would stop for them. Accordingly,
as they were just then at the forward
end of their car, they stepped on at
that end, and as the first one entered,
the last man of the gang was just get-
ting out of his seat to follow the line
out. Observing the crowd still getting
off, thelea‘ders, thinking the ordershad
been misunderstood or reversed, fol-
‘lowed close on the heels of the last- man,

. and passed through the car to the for-

ward and, and out onto the depot plat-
form again with the entire line closely
following, thus forming an endless cir-
cle of men in single file, walking ’round
and ’round,‘in at one end of the car
and out at the other, till Dyes, who
stood at the forward end hurrying
them aboard, ejaculated in amazement
“For heaven’s sake! how many 'men
are there in this gang ? ” then glancing
toward the other end, he saw in the
never-ending line a countenance
trimmed with red Donegel whiskers
and a short clay pipe stuck upside
down into Wondering grin, which he
identified as the same chromo that had
impressed him a minute beford, going
into the car. He instantly ' saw the
ridiculous Condition of things and put'
a. stop toit by stationing himself at that
exit end and breaking-the parade col—
umn at the car step, halting those a1-

others on board. ' It was a. grand. walk-

.2 LEGISLATIVE NOTES.

j ' In continuation of the personal notes
furnished‘by our Special Correspond-
ent- at Hartford, the first instalment of
which: appeared in our yesterday’s
Daily,‘the following items of local in-
terest are given : .

Mr. A. .W. Merwin, of “Wilton, who
published his resignation recently, com-
manded the attention of :the House
when“ he rose'andread the statement
that although his opponent in the last
election hada plurality, it was obtained
through bribery, and he would retain
his seat against fcorruption.

The sequel'to this is a rumor in cir-
culation-that he has proéured, for fif‘
teen dollars, the Eaffidavit'of a man at
Gilbert & Bennett’s Wire Works, who
swears he was paidadOllar to vote for
Chichester. Such audacious corruption
as this Mr. Merwin will net condone,
but will contest to’h‘isla'st drop of blood.
Mr. Chichester says he knows nothing
of the case, and nslfo'r the man who
thus blackens his 'own character and
exposes himself to a conviction and term
in states-prison, Mr. Chichester' says,
he don’t think he has spoken to him in
ten years. No one, hOwever, seems to
doubt the ultimate seating of Mr. Chi-
chester. ', l

The democrats get a slight advantage
of the republicans in the House on Wed—
nesday, in the shuttle-cock game of ex-
amining the returns, thus carrying the
first strategic position.

Big-headed and big-hearted Sam.
Fessenden was , ubiquitous, and as
“ childlike and bland ” as ever. Lynde
Harrison and _“Doc.” Coolidge wore
that far-away look of “ parallel railroad
anxiety” that is'making'both of them
prematurely old. 'Those who awaited
the presentation of Senator Seymour’s
promised State R. R. building schemes,
among his multitudinous resolves sub-
mitted to the Senate, were doomed to
disappointment. It had been expected

Senator’s heart, would have been the
first one for him to eject from his sys—
tem. ’ '
ExLSenator Hill was dashing about]:
here, there and everywhere, like Henry
tof- Navarreiherintensest anxiety and.

and nostrils, but when he assured his
friends that he should stand by, as long
as there was a. republican plank to float
upon, all felt sure that our good Com-
monwealth was safe.

Mi. Maples was universally around,
and wore his usual sardonic smile, but
when the House convened, ho quietly
seated himself at a table in the south-
east corner of the lobby, saying in
every feature, that he was resolved
that, with entire impartiality, not a
particle of wreckage should escape his
drag-net, in the event of a general
smash-up, or going down, of old Con-
necticut’s ship of State.

The House took a recess yesterday
till the 20th, when it will reconvene
and proceed to re-elect Senator Platt.
At the date of departure, the House
was a. few points ahead, with the Son-
ate in 9. hole, and the future big with
possibilities.

Norwalk’s prompt and clear headed
Representative, Gen. Charles Olin-
stead, has occupied the presiding offi-
cer’s chair more during the week than
any one else. Young Speaker Paige,
has" thus far shown himself an easy
master of the situation.

During a lull in the Senate proceed-
ings yesterday morning, Senator Ed. S.
Cleveland was seen with both arms
clasped around the rotund form of Ed-
itor Byington of the GAZETTE, and giv-
ing him a most vigorous bear-hug be-
fore all the Senate. When fire and
water was seen to so affectionately mix,
every one seemed to experience a. feel-
ing of relief in the conviction that if
such “brotherly love was to continue”
there would soon be an end to the po-
litical deadlock. They must have been
a. long time, warm personal friends,
despite their political differences.

The Senate has declared the Demo-
cratic state oflicers elected as shown by
the face of the returns, while the
House has referred the returns to a
House committee for an investigation.
After the House has amended its
rules _so that a. recess for any length of
time might be taken without concur-
rent action by the Senate, a motion to
take a recess until J an. 20th was passed.
