Yesterday morning two sunny sons of
Italy were about, the streets, one grind-
ing out heart rending notes from a
wheezy organ,_the other, evidently the
treasurerpf the combination, taking in
the Shekels through the agency of a
monkey. While they were on Wash-
ington street a large Newfoundland
dog came along and grabbed the mon-
key in his teeth, and for a short time
there was a lively mixture of monkey,
man and dog, in which finally monkey
and man came off victorious. The
“monk” however, will go home for
days to come.
A
SPECIAL CITY NEWS.
The W. R. C. meet to-night. Their
entertainment last evening was quite
creditable and well received by the au-
clience.
H. M. Arnold has severed his con-
nection with the Commercial Cable Co.
and is considering an offer to engage
with the Western Union 00., in which
event he will be located at Danbury.
The effort to organize a S. of T. Di-
vision at East NorwaIk has again failed.
TO-morrow evening the last rehearsal
but one, of “The Last Loaf,” will be
held at the close of the regular meet-
ing of the U. G. T. B. A.
Some men will not need to buy flow-
ers on Decoration Day—judging from
the crimson flush on their blooming
noses which outvies that of the red red
roses, and various other posies.
Blackfish are biting freely, and some
big catches are reported. The fish are
of a larger size than during some sea-
sons past, and can pull more to the lin-
eal inch than Mail Carrier Bennett’s
rampageous Bucephalus.
Large numbers of small boys are in
the habit of holding nightly seances on
the porch of the old Congregational
church, their principal business being
the consumption of cigarettes. “Our
finest” are politely requested to dis-
perse these gatherings, as they are de-
cidedly annoying to residents therea-
bouts. C. V. A.
The Rio Grande Receding.
ALBUQUERQUE, N. M., May 14.—-The Rio
Grande is receding. At Esyonada the
river has fallen twenty-six inches. Con-
siderable damage has been done in Valiu-
ciaaounty. About 400 feet of the track is
washed out near Los Nunas. Trains are
running on time, however, a spur having
been built around the washout. At Bare-
lan a considerable portion of the east
bank and a number of adobes have been
washed away by the strong current. It is
feared that some of the railroad will be
washed away.
