Norwalk will get a good send-ofl'.

The joke is now on “Grover” Wilson.
On Sunday evening last he attended
Dr. Van Alstyne’s church, and listened
to a most interesting and instructive
discourse on “Euchre, West Avenue
and Heaven.” Mr. Wilson was so
impressed by the force of the doctrine
laid down by the good Doctor, that he
could not be held wholly responsible
for his next morning’s experience in G.
Franke’s barber Shop. Mr. Wilson
entered the shop and after waiting for
Six other customers to have their hair
cut, responded to Gus’s wink and

peremptory call of‘ “Next!” When
this welcome word came, Grover
dropped the New York Tribune,

pulled off his overcoat, unpinned his
diamond necktie, took off his high
standing collar and took the chair.
“Why don’t you take off that high col—
lar?” queried Mr. Franke. “Why,
bless your heart,” responded Grover,
with an expression of countenance in-
dicative of both pity and amazement,
“I have just taken it 011', and'if you
have your eyes about you, you can see
it hanging over the collar of my over-
coat up there on your hat rack.”
Frankc glanced in the Cirection indi-
cated and, sure enough, there was a
high dickie collar astride of Grover’s
overcoat on the rack. He looked
again at 'Grover, then cast another
furtive glance at the hat rack and
asked. “For heaven’s sake! how
many Collars do you generally wear at
one time?” Grover promptly '
sponded, “Only one, by ginger!”
then looking in the glass he observed
that he had a collar on as high as the
one he had taken off, and with an ex-
clamation of disgust. he remarked:
“Well, I’ll be jiggered! if Ihaven’t
gone to work and put on a clean collar
right smack over another one without
knowing it—but that was a mighty
interesting discourse on Euchre, just
the same.” - .

Grace Church.

The work of shingling the roof of
Grace church was extremely diilicult
and rather dangerous yesterday and
the day before on accout of the ice
having formed on it from the late
storm. For this reason the work of
putting up the roof timbers of the
square dome was not undertaken. The
church, as the work progresses, begins
to put on a pretty appearance. The two
ends of the transepts will have circular
windows of stained glass. The windows
of the square dome, twenty in number,
are also to be of stained glass. The
edifice is to be lighted with electricity,
thus showing that the new church so—
ciety is one of progression.
