some beneVolent object, that shall
knock the spots off the Knights’ best
efforts. And they’re pretty liable to
do it, to», providing they can agree on
anyone idea long enough to carry it

Considerable damage was done by
the January thaw in Bethe] yesterday.
Many cellars were flooded to a depth
of five feet, causing much loss in dam-
age to or destruction of vegetables and
other winter supplies. StarrBarnum’s
grocery store basement was filled with
water almost to the stringers overhead,
and a large amount of goods sub-
merged. Mr. Barnum estimates his
damage at about $1,000. At Judd &
Dunning’s hat factory the water was
over afoot deep on the ground floor
and many hundreds of dollars worth of
hats, in cases, were damaged. In the
storage room of the Baird fur shop
fully $2,000 worth of fur was complete-
ly under water. Many of the streets
were impassable owing to the depth of
the water. The tremendous body of
snow which melted, and the steady
rain, caused such a freshet as has not
been seen in the town in many years.
The latest idiocy is “Tiddledy
Winks,” and it almost bids fair to su-
persede .‘ ‘Euchre, West avenue and
Heaven,” and “Whist, East avenue
and Cobble Hell,” as an absorbing par-
lor game. It can be played by four
persons and a. table. The parapherna-
lia consists of a lot of little round things
and a. cup. There are four tiddledies
and twenty-four winks. The tiddledy
is a thing about so big around, made
of something or other, and the winks
are a little smaller and made of the
,same material. You set the cup in the
centre of the table arrange the, winks
in four lines from the cup toWard the
players, and take turns tiddledying the
winks into the cup. This is done by.
pressing down on the edge of the wink
with the edge of the tiddledy and mak-
ing it jump. Sometimes it will jump
into the cup, but ’most always it won’t.
The player who gets all his winks into
the cup first, sticks the party and
scoops the pot. O. E. Wilson and Doc.
Coolidge are said to be very expert
tiddledy winkists.

There seems still to be a. misunder-
standing as to who settled for that stag
party sleighride and banquet at Dor-
lon’s Point last week, which was re-
ported in the GAZETTE. Fenton Pom-
eroy assevcrates that. George Grumman
furnished half the team and Henry
Grumman paid for all the wine. Hart
Weeks, however, persists in insisting
that George opened all the wine and
provided the entire turnout. This vital
and momentous question ought soon to
be fully and finally settled, to case the
strain of anxiety on the mind of a. deep-
ly interested public, which cannot be
alloyed until it is determined, once for
all, whether George opened all the
wine and furnished the turnout, or
whether Hen opened the turnout and
wined the team, or whether Hart Weeks
Pomeroyed the wine and' opened the

The current- rumor concerning the
Ambler failure, is that it was caused by

zens will place the needed capital in
Mr. A. ’s hands, so that hisbusiness may

gan to kick, which made the other
horse plunge violently, and had it not
been for the timely aid of willing hands,
the fallen horse must have been killed.
The ladies in the vehicle did not. show
the least alarm about the mishap.
ED. GAZETTE :—Concerning the blow-
ing down of Mr. Britto’s house, in East
Norwalk, I would like to make the
statement that I did not furnish any of
the stone or material used in the build-
ing of said walls, but used the material
furnished by Mr. Britto himself, which
was the very cheapest he could buy.
The rear of the side walls were nine
feet over natural ground and six feet
of these walls were laid dry, and Mr.
Britto agreed to grade the lot to make
them stand plumb, and did not do it.
The wind blew down the building, and
as a. natural consequence, the falling
timbers knocked down parts of the
walls. WM. LAWLOR.

What could editor ‘Ellendorf do with
$8 anyway. I
A Norwalk editor is said to be willing
to become judge of the borough court
which the legislature is expected to toss
off in one of its merry moods. The
qiirry now is who is it? Is it Ellen-
dorf, or “old necessity who knows no
law?” . If it is John Husband Wade
the GAZETTE is for him.

innocent of the charge. “It served
him right, all the same,” .quoth the
Count, he was no business at the color-
ed meeting anyway, don’t it. ”
