T110 locomotives en route to Rio
J anelro, S. A., passed through this city
early thismorning. They were from
the Rhode Island Locomotive Works.
All except the trucks were securely
boxed,the whole occupying four freight
cars.
The contract for building the new
water main will in all probability be
awarded to W. F. Inman of New York,
the second lowest bidder, his bid being
$15,146.70. W. H. Morton with a bid
of $13,792.85, we understand, fails to
qualify.
It 1s stated that a lady in West Nor-
walk, in order to, get 1id of U. Grant
Houston, literally put his traps in the
street. When in that suberb he had
made her home. his abiding place,
charging his beard up to the account
of the Lord. The lady through a kindly
lceling found no fault until the othe1
day when she told him she had receiv-
ed a letter from his father. and in reply-ll
he is credited with having called her a
liar. Hence the pitching of his chattels
into the street.
The funeral» of Capt. Stephen D.'Byx-
bee was largely attended from his late
home on South Main street, yesterday
afternoon, Rev. Mr. Wheaten officiat-
ing. Members of Clinton commandery
R. A. M., acted as an escort, and there
were delegations from St. Johns and
Old Well lodges, F. .K' A. M., from
Douglas Fowler and Buckingham Posts,

u
. G. A. R, and a delegation from Mer-
riam Post, of Meriden, of which de—
ceased was a member. The interment
was at Pine Island cemetery.

The case of Calvin A. Smith, referred
to last week as having been granted an
increase of pension, was not correctly
stated. The increase was not 3510, but
was $8 per month, amounting with the
original allowance, to $12. In the
spring of 1889 Mr. Smith applied
through a local agent for the increase.
One of the documents in the case was
sent to Washington without having
been properly made out. Hearing
nothing further from the application,
(.
DA‘ILY- NORWALK-
’TllflSllflY Blflllllll, 1113181117,
the applicant applied through a friend
to Senator Platt for an inquiry into
the matter. The latter went to the Pen-
sion office, found the papers and had
them returned directly to the applicant
for completion. This was done, Mr.
Smith conducting the business for him-
self. He then returned the papers and
Soon afterward received notice of the
increase. He authorizes this statement,
that credit maybe given to all to whom
it is justly due.
Yesterday afternoon, a home owned
by Malketman Farrington kicked hIS
heels over the shafts, of the wagon,-
throwing himself and the driver to the
ground 011 Railroad Square. The ani-
mal was with some difficulty disen-
tangled from the vehicle and harness.
The driver escaped harm. The crowd
while taking a lively interest in the
proceedings, kept very shy of the
horse’s heels. Damage, broken shaft.
The horse was led to the stable‘with
his tail bang tied in' a hard knot and
his hind feet on the ground.
G. A.,R. Notes—A joint meeting of
committees from, Douglas Fowler and
Buckingham Posts willmeetto-night in ~
the latter’s hall in the borough to con-
sider the matter of a grand co-opera-
tion by the two Posts in the observance
of the coming Decoration Day. —-Doug-
las Fowler Posthas recived a fac simile
copy of the original charter of Post
N o. 1, ,D. F. Stevenson, Commander,
instituted at Decatur, 111., in April,
1866. The interesting document will
be appropriately framed and hung 11p
in the Post 1'oom.——The principal fea-
ture of the Post’s entertainment next
week will be a very amusing play, on-
titled, “ The Kansas Immigrant,” a re-
hearsal of which is appointed for to-
morrow evening—There is to be a
grand observance of the quarto-centen-
nial anniversary of the G. A. R. early
next month, which will probably be the
first and last in which the survivors of
the‘late war will ever participate in im-
mortal life.
At a meeting of the Sunday-school
0f the First Methodist church last eve-
ning, the following oflicers were elect-
ed: Charles F. Hallock, superintendent;
Charles E. Hoyt, assistant superintend-
ent; Miss Emma Banks, lady assistant:
Mrs. Jimmerson, treasurer; Robert M.
Ellendorf, secretary; James A. Brown,
Charles N. Smith, Nelson E. Hoyt and
Charles Smith, librarians ; Charles E.
Seymour and Thomas I. Raymond,
auditors. At a subsequent meeting
the following were elected Officers of
the missionary society : Mrs. C.J North,
president: Charles E. Seymour, vice
president; Mr. Edward Godfrey, sec-
retary; Miss Sadie Bodwell, treasurer.
Yesterday afteI noon, a female fairly
Well attired, hailed Oflicer Gladstone
and said she wished to see him on 1111-
vatc business at the station house. The
officer in his most gallant manner ac-
companied her to the station house,
where she told him she had rheuma-
tism in her feet and wished to stay
there until rested. The officer was
somewhat taken aback though, when
she requested him to get her a drink.
She was then placed in one of the cages
and in less than an hour after was as
“drunk as a goat” as Janitor Bowens
expressed it. It seems that her name
is Clara Chapman and she is quite well
acquainted with jail life in Bridgeport.
This morning she was given '10 days in
jail and costs, by Justice Town send.
