increased to such an extent that he had

some time past died Thursday morning
aged 48 years. He was well and favor-

county. His death creates a vacancy
in the office of Judge of Probate, which
is to be filled by appointment by the
governor. The democratic registrar has
hastily notified Luzon B. Morris of
New Haven, the democratic claimant
of the-governorship, and the republican
registrar, aware of the action of the
democratic registrar, has notified Gov-
ernor Bulkeley of the vacancy. This
isone of the many complications sure to
arise in consequence of the usurpation

Mr. Wm. J. Finney, who for thebest
part of a half century has done the car-.
penter work and repairing for the Un-
ion Co.’s Mills, had a very narrow es-
cape from instant death there Tuesday.
He was at work just above one of ithe
big steam boilers and chanced to hit
the safety valve which flew out and a
stream of pent-up water flew up and del-
uged him. Had the water been boiling-
hot, as it usually is at that hour, it
would certainly have _ been “requiescat
in pace,” for brother Finney. Fortu-
nately it was only tepid,‘ whiCh made
his drenching less uncomfortable. ’

NEIV SOCIETY FAD.
Mr. T. S. Morison, has long been
deservedly deemed a leader in social
life and “wrinkles,” among Norwalk’s
fashionable elite. He], has recently
engaged a professorof the latest terp-
sichorean figures and pirouettes, who.
comes to Norwalk weekly and gives
private lessons in these latest dance
figures to the few friends forming the
class, who are so fortunate as to be the
beneficiaries of Mr. Morison’sliberality
and social public spirit.

THE REASON OF 11'. .
If any one has noticed our usually
jocund as well as rotund friend
“Campy” of late and observed how
round shouldered he was, and how ser-
ious looking, as if he had just come. or
rather was just going to prayers, or
was on his way to good Father Slocum’s
seeking for absolution, with a very du-
bious feeling as to the result, well, if
you have and have formed an idea that
it’s all because Mr. Morris isn’t yet in-
stalled as governor, you are greatly
mistaken. It isn’t that at all. It’s all
because “Campy” has found that a
“Heathen Chinee” has tunneled up
through this solid globe of ours, right
under our great reservoir and is run-
ning-.11 laundry down in the-Flowery
Kingdom semewhere,,with water stolen,
yes’, “stolen”-from the borough water
Works. ’Tis this that makes him wear
that look of inconsolable' anguish. A ,
faithful public servant, is “Campy.”
Did he own the water works himself‘
lhe couldn’t feel more “all'broken up.”‘

Excellency'that if he ‘fordered out the
militia he had better order out the
cavalry, as he (Comptroller‘Staub) was
a good runner,” a mistake was made.
The firemen, of whose fraternity Nick
is an honored brother, appreciated the
fact that he had stood by them and
they stood by him and elected him by
a rousing majority. He can rely on
them in the future and if the Gov rnor
calls out the militia, Nick must ca 1 on
the firemen and they will answer'to the
first _alarm in quick time, and van-
quish the enemy by squirting on them.
The average militiamen, if the size of
the medicine (‘2) chests he takes with
him to camp are any criterion to go by,
cannot take water, and with ‘a large
number of good streams from the at-
tacking party, asure victory would be
on Nick’s side. Stick to I the firemen,
Nick, both in this world and in the
.world to come, and you’ll be 'all‘ right.
