Michael Garrigan was crushed to death by a pile of lumber falling upon him this noon at the steamboat dock, South Norwalk. He was 48 years old and leaves a wife and five children. —Bor WANTED—At Scofield & Hoyt’s Norwalk store. # 97tf Mrs. Julia Mohler is visiting friends at Broad River. fi Mrs. Romer has been visiting Mrs. Carrie Budd, of Weston.

Clark, Savannah, N. Y. Because of the accidental presence of paris green in some oatmeal, the fami- ly of Martin Hayden, living in East Bridgeport, has been poisoned, and one death, that of Mrs. Hayden’s mother, has already occurred. Mr. George A. Kinnef, of Bethel, came to Norwalk to-day to see his ex- cellent horses “Priest” and George A. , ” which have been looked after by Train- er Lockwood most of the time for the last two years, and are in prime condi- tion for the track. —BICYCLE STOLEN—And a suitable reward offered for its recovery. A bi- cycle was stolen Wednesday night from the front stoop of a house on Main street. A suitable reward will be paid for its return to Dr. Winfield H. Bald- win, 64 _Wall street. 90tf Miss Sarah Richards had been a member of the 2d M. E. church ever Since its organization and her funera was attended by Rev. Dr. Van Alstyne and not by Dr. Noble as was errone- ously published in the DAILY GAZETTE and copied by the hypercritical Senti- nel. From the veiy best of sources, we learn what we supposed was the fact, despite the current rumors, that Capt. Rose does not and never did contem- plate resigning to avoid the ordered military examination. Capt. Rose isn’t the kind of a soldier who runs before a gun is fired. The Consolidated road has begun .the four-tracking of its line in the vi- cinity of the Redfield quarry in Fair- field. From this point two tracks have been laid on the north side of the old tracks, westward one and a half miles, extending to the Morehouse crossing in Fairfield. A large force of men is em- pl oyed. Miss Julia Hanlon of the Boston store will spend Sunday in New Haven. Chris E. Miller—will sail for~Germany on the steamer Rugia, of the Hamburg line on June 20th. —At McDonald’s 19 Wall street, 2 quarts of berries are being sold for 25 cents, and Blue fish and Shad at 8 cents per pound. 07 it Two men were drowned in the lower Connecticut last week by the capsizing of a row-boat in which they with others on board, were “fooling.” Admirers of good hors es are notlng a pretty thorough-bred Hambletonian, kept at Mr. Dann’s stable. It is the property of Mrs. Knight, the Boston store milliner. _ Improvements are being made in Elm, Berkeley and Leonard streets which will commend themselves to everybody having occasion to drive through these thoroughfares. Samuel Jarvis with a gang of work- men is now at work at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, for the N orwalk Iron Works, putting Mr. Eben Hill’s patent hot air compressors into the U. S. gun- boat Terror. A council composed of delegates from the Baptist churches of Fairfield county, will meet in Norwalk, on the 25th inst, to ordain to the ministery Rev. F. E. Robbins, the newly elected pastor of the First Baptist church. . Street contractors are taking advan- tage of the fine weather to do needed work in many of the streets of the bor- ough. One cannot go in any direction without noting improvements of al- most every name and nature. Mrs. Legrand. Johnson and Mrs. Lawrence Weed, both of West Nor- walk, are dangerously ill with pneu- monia, and it is not believed that the latter can survive. Mrs. Weed’s hus- band, it willbe remembered, committed suicide a few days ago. Should there be anything in the house furnishing line you are in need of, go to H. H. Williams,15 Wall street, as that is the place where you can find almost any article you are looking fo1; whether in tin, wood, china, glass or earthen were you can find it there at lowest prices. The present lull in the business of Norwalk undertakers is a most welcome bit of news, especially in view of the fact that various newspapers, in New York city and elsewhere,.have seemed to take delight in the publication of di- vers and sundry exaggerations respect- ing Norwalk’s hygienic condition. The Danbury News has the following in reference to the appointment to the assistant clerkship of that lively city, of an old Norwalk war veteran: Albert Morehouse, Jr., is well qualified to fill the position of assistant city clerk. He is prominent as a Grand Army man, having been a commander of James E. Moore Post last year. He is a hatter in the employ of Crofut & White. If you notice any of our nice married men coming down town early mornings, wearing countenances of great solem- nity and walking with stiffened joints and curved spines, it isn’t because they are suffering from a sense of sin, or rhubarb pie, or have muscular rheu- matism, or been on their knees in pen- itential prayer. It is all because the clear wife is enjoying a season of house- cleaning at the home, and he, poor fel- low has had to help lay a carpet or lift a bureau, that’s all. The “era of good feeling” was made manifest yesterday, Ascension Day, when owing to the janitor of Grace church not having shut off his gas, the services announced to take place there at 10.30 a. m. were omitted and Rector Watkins immediately went up to St. Paul’s to hear his good brother Gra- ham. Then last evening, St. Paul’s zealous champion, Rev. Bro. Ellwood, was seen at Grace Church, and as rev- erent a worshipper as any. This is as it should be. “By this shall the world know that ye have learned of me, in that ye love one another. ” One of our bright Methodist pastors relates, with some satisfaction, that the Rectors of the Episcopal churches of Norwalk have been almost entirely re- cruitedfrom the ranks of Methodism. Rev. Mr. Graham, he states, was form- erly a Methodist preacher. Rev. Mr. Hallock came out from the Methodist pulpit, while Rev. Mr. Watkins’ father was' formerly an eloquent Methodist di- vine. To this may be added that» the late Rev. Dr. Mead was first a Metho- dist, Rev. Mr. Selleck, brought up in the Congregational church, Rev. Mr. Elwood was formerly a Congrega4 tional preacher, and Rev. Dr. Childs, one of the ablest preachers and teachers of the Presbyterian faith, is now an Episcopalian. Mrs. William K. James is having her ample front stoop replanked by Carpen- ter Brush. —Broken Stone for walks and drives for sale by P. W.

Scofi'eld ‘of Belden avenue. His condition is thought to be a trifle improved to-day. Dann’s new consignment of horses show the effects of their week’s im- prisonment on the cars, during the cold snap. But one seems to have ta- ken cold, which shows they are are- markably tough lot of roadsters. A near by resident of the Prospect place on Harbor avenue, wishes the GAZETTE to call the attention of the health committee to the sewage that runs from a pipe at that place on to the track and from thence finds its way along the surface to the pond rear of the Capt. Demmon place. To the cilia- via that arises therefrom he ascribes a portion of the illness' 1n that vicinity. —-————-< o >———.——— - WHAT MISS SPINSTER SAYS: That the counting of the ballots pro- ceeds slowly; it looks as if one side was . afraid and that the other da’sn’t. That this is going to be a great fruit year, if the-blossoms mean business and Jack Frost isn’t too previous. That the cold snap appears to have nipped all social gayeties. That nothing abashes la grippe; it visits the just and the unjust. That children ought to play. From the nursery to the narrow house is but ashort journey, and in the brief space between the two,the pleasantest domain ought to be that of childhood. Their childhood should be the holiday. of life; its slave day will soon be upon them, and then farewell forever to the merry world. If every child could be prop- erly instructed intellectually, morally and religiously, a very few generations would suffice to bring about the millen- nium, and if the foundations of a life- long cheerfulness cOuld be at the same time laid, by affording to all children full opportunities for innocent enjoy— ment, what a merry _ millennium it would be. That being out of the ques— tion, let us do the best ‘we can. Away with all the tribe of humbugs who would cram them in school and make automate. of them out of it. Teach the children winningly. Let them frolic unrestrainedly. Some children are ut- terly broken down physically and men- tally by over-education. Others have no education at all. Of the twain, the former are more to be pitied. The uneducat ed can afterward educate them— selves. But children who have had the vitality and spirits of their youth dra- gooned out of them by martinet teach- ers can never repair the damage that has been done to their bodies and minds by over-tasking. That President Harrison’s trip seems a good deal like a royal progress in the cordiality of the greeting extended. him wherever he goes. __-.._._. <9»--.E..._ Y M C. A. NOTES.

The horse which transports over a thousand a day of EllS’ popular pies about our town and its siiburbs, and who had always been considered as staid and steady as a Presbyterian dea- con, took it into his stupid head yester- day afternoon, when near St. Mary’s church, to get crazy scared at the big Steam road roller. He dashed over in- to the DeKlyn place yard, struck a tags and utterly demolished the vehicle, while poor George Ells, the pies aifd pie plates’filled the air-’as if fired Out of a catapult. Fortunately, Mr. Ells was not dangerously hurt, though quite se- riously shaken up. ' ' sublime PhilOsbphy.~ The average woman is a born philos- opher. There’s no doubt about it. And there 1s abundant testimony in its favor every day if we but take the trouble to “make a Rate on’t. ” Yesterday afternoon, about 4 o’clock -two ladies were driving up wen street in a phaeton. The horse Was evidently what is known as “a woman’s horse.” That is, ‘he was one of those docile, submissivecreaturer‘which would‘do its best to climb a pole if clucked on bya woman holding the reins. But “to return to our grandmother,” as Artemas Ward would have said. These ladies, more especially the driver, ap- parently desired to hitch somewhere along the east side of Wall street and espying what she considered an open- ing next to a rig owned by a New Ca- naan inan, she calmly started toward the curb. Now with an abundance of room above the space occupied by the New Canaan outfit, in front of the Opera_House entrance, what do you suppose that woman did? She shot directly across the stern of the New Canaan craft, as nautical men would say, and got the OE hind wheel of the latter all tangled up in her vehicle, but still she kept on, although with every forward movement of her animal the New Canaan horse was pushed onto and across the sidewalk, while the total wrecking of the New Canaan wagon seemed assured. Then it was that Lieutenant Matheis and others rushed out, seized the “woman’s horse” by, the bits and after much, pushing and pull- ing disentangled the wagon snarl. Then the woman who had unconscious- ly done her best to precipitate a runa- way and bad smashupsmiled as se- renely while driving away as if she had merely stopped to make a friendly salutation. That woman is a natural philosopher goes without saying. BASE BALL. League Games.

Owners identifying Their Goods. 1 v“. Selectman Ambler of, Wilton yester: day went to the house of the arrested sneak thieves and burglars, and exani- ined the mass of stolen property heap- 'ed up there like some immense second hand furniture auction store hous. .6:nfies, Mrs. HickOk' andMessrs. Ban- - attend Disbrow of Wilton, all of 55.3 ‘rwhich were restoredatothei‘r ownersi 3 ‘ Among other stolen property are eight pairs of new heavy woolen blan- kets with the Minneapolis tag on them. They are said to be worth from $5 to 88 some store, as the bale had not been undone. There is a large new Brussels carpet, rolled up, that looks as if it had been taken from some one’s parlor soon. after having been laid. There is a roll of-nearly new oil cloth marked “C. Swartz, Bedding Station. ” A linen cuff was also picked up marked with ink “C. Swartz.” This would lead to the _ suspicion that the residence the Ex-Sherifi' leased in Redding last sum- mer had been raided. The house occupied by the thieves and raided by the detectives is situated in a secluded spot in the northwest Corner of the town of Fairfield, near the Westport line, and is about a mile southeast; of Greenfield Hill. The thieves have lived there for six years and the building 1s said to have been owned at one time by a German living in Norwalk. _Detective Cronin and Officer Arnold are in charge. They allowed people'to take away such things as they were enabled to identify. The officers took to Bridgeport a number of articles used by the burglars. Among them were 150 keys of all sizes and, shapes that would fit almost any lock manufactured. Some of them had been stolen and on the checks were the initials. On a. number of bunches were the initials “D. & N. ” and had been stOlen frOm the Danbury & Norwalk R. R. Co. Another contrivance was what might be styled an “incendiary’ s It contained two separate parts connected by tubes. The upper one was over a foot long and similar in shape to an egg It was in- tended to hold light fuel for starting a fire which was started by a bellows, the air passing through the tubes. At one end was a hole from which the blaze could be: blowed against whatever the opera- tor desired to set on fire. Thus when it was desired to set a house or build- ing on fire all that was necessary was to press onthebellows and drive the fire against the woodwork or inflammable material. Again when a lock bothered them in a few minutes they could burn it out. :The “lighter” is of convenient size to carry and if it is the invention of Luddington he is a genius. The officers also found 500 yards of dynamite fuse. It was probably stolen from a quarry. An important discovery was that of an Allen revolver with long barrels, which implicates Luddington and his colleagues in one of the boldest robber- ies ever committed in this section of the state. About a year since Col. Bradley of Greenfield Hill was aroused early one morning to find burglars in his house. One of them pointed a pistol at his head and cautioned him not to move or he would shoot him. They then took everthin‘g valuable that could be car- ried away. The robbers wore masks. While in the house a ball was dropped from the Allen revolver. When they left Col. Bradley picked it- up. He visited Luddington’s house yesterday and found that it was of the kind used in the revolver. This is sufiicient to give Luddington a long term at Wethersfield. A large number of people visited the house yesterday in hopes of finding articles they had lost. Many were suc- cessful. Several complete sets of bur- glar’ s tOols were found. There was also found a large and elegant church or family bible, which may be the one stolen from the Greens Farms Congregational church at the time. the church organ was stolen in Open daylight, about a year ago, and which was undoubtedly their work. They are probably the burglars that have several times entered the cellar of our patient friend Walter Fitch, and stolen his pork, hams, butter, lard, preserves, pickles, cakes and pies, and who have annually raided his chickens and stolen them by the hundreds, also the other similar thefts about'Nor- walk were no doubt the work of the same parties. The trial of Luddington and the Con- roy woman will take place in Wilton feat them, they will have to play; ball to-morrow. Meantime they are held at the county jail.

Tried to Kill Himself. - 'J. Halsey Kemper of Westport, son ‘of ex-Selectman Charles H. Kemper, attempted suicide yesterday afternoon by shooting himself in the head- with a revolver. No serious results are feared. Kemper, who is about 30 years fiold and highly educated, was closing a three weeks’ debauch when he staggered into Dr. Cannon’s drug store and fell into a chair. Placing the weapon behind his car he pulled the trigger. The ball lodged near the brain where the doctor found it. I Ballot Overhauling. ‘ Last evening the following named gentlemen assembled, with Town Clerk Smith, in the town clerk’s office and opened the ballot boxes. Messrs. C. B. Coolidge, B. S. Keith, John H. Light, Lester L. Sherwood and Ber- nard C. Feeney. No attempt at a ballot recount was made, except of the rejected ballots, and the only interest \was in the Third district. In that box a lot of new bal- lots never counted or folded was found thrown in with the ballots of election day. There were 44 rejected ballots; 30 of these, “rejected for not being print- ed in conformity to law,” were prohi- bition ballots that had "for congress” on them; 14 were rejected for “envel- opes not sealed.” Of these one envel- ope was empty, nine were Morris 'bal- lots and four Merwin ballots. The Morris quo warranto proceedings open to-day, pursuant to agreement be- tween counsel. It is hoped that a way out of the present unsatisfactory state of things will be speedily found.
