The South side Gun club will hold a

W. W. Comstock is having a new
stern put in his yacht Princess.

The barge Alpha is at E. M. Tolles &
CO. ’s wharf with a load of coal.

Mrs. A. B. Coffin and daughter have

Mr. Peter Deckcr’s naphtha launch
shines resplendent in a new coat of
paint.

Butler Lodge, I. O. O. F., will con-
fer the initiatory degree on four can-
didates to-night.

Capt. Geo. Byxbeo claims that the
yacht Julia won the race in her class
on Memorial day.

Mr. Edward Seymour who fell into
the hold of a lumber barge on Memor-
ial day is slowly recovering from his
indu'ies.

The amount realized by the sale of
pews at the Baptist church last evening,
wasfully up to expectations, and more
——flattering.

The Norwalk Lock company com-
menced this week running on five days
time, nine hours constituting a day.

Michael Kelley and John Gaven were
sent to jail this morning for vagrancy.
Mr. Kelley gets the longer sentence he
being drunk when arrested.

Mr. J. A. Newcomb, a former pro-
prietor of the Mahackcmo hotel died
this noon at the home of his son-in-
law, ex—Mayor Richard Golden, on
West avenue. _

Justice Morrell, yesterday afternoon,
bound young Harry Bussing over in
the sum of $500 for trial before the Sn-
perior court. All but about $10 of the
amount taken was recovered.

Ed. Morehouse is trying to prevail
on Assessor D. Warren Fitch to pur-
chase a bicycle. Ed. has ulterior mo-
tives in so doing. He thinks Mr. Fitch
will tire of it and give it to him.

Frank Lassen .predicts a deluge of
crabs. Already good catches of them
are reported. The run of horse-feet is
very large also, and chickens are get-
ting this delicacy in abundance.

If some one were to stand at the sta-
tion with a whip on the arrival of trains
and deal the boys who jump on and off
trains, a few sharp cuts across the legs,
mayhap the practice would be stopped.

The Stamford Oratorio will present
the pleasing opera Captivity in the
Presbyterian church, next Friday even-
ing. A number of South Norwalk peo-
ple have signified their intentions of
being present.

Mr. Shrivcr, the genial man behind
the desk at E. M. Tolles 8: 00., pro-
poses taking a vacation soon, and if he
does not go south we shall miss our
guess. His parents are located in that
section of the United States.

The contract for building the foun-
dation for the proposed new sanitari-
um, on the Winslow property at West-
port, has been awarded to Wm. Sheldon.
The foundation is 60 x 120, and we un-
derstand the contract price is about
$2,000. .

Mr. William Warden, of East Nor-
walk, who for the past year has been
employed at the Washington street

harness store, has been forced on aC-'

count of ill health to give up his posi-
tion. He hopes to be benefited by
out-of—town work.

The fact that the hat trimmers have
taken hold of the matter of establishing
a hospital in this city augurs well for
the successful fruition of the enter-
prise.' Help them all you can in so
worthy an object. Show them by lib.
eral contributions that yOu are heart
and money with them.

The whole of the upper story of the
Duncan Iron Works has been leased
by gentlemen engaged in the manufac;
ture of ankle supporters, the plating
works being removed to new quarters,
The room is being re-ceiled and placed
in thorough repair for the supporter
business which is on the increase.

Said a client to a lawyer not a thou.
sand miles from Norwalk: “You have
an item in your bill for $5 for advice
the day before I retained you.” The
lawyer replied that he knew it, and
added, “that is the day I told you that
you’d better let me take the case for
you.” “Yes,” said the client. “Well,
that’s advice isn’t it?” answered the
disciple of Blackstone. The client

gave him a check for the amount.

'who declined re-election.

contractor William Sheldon expects
to finish work on sewer system, D, this
week. This is about two months in ad-

' vance of the time given Mr. Sheldon to

finish the job, and of course those who
prepose connecting with it are corres-
pondingly glad. Mr. Sheldon is one of
those stone masons who always gets
there on time.

George Smith, the carpenter, visited
Brooklyn, on Saturday, for the first
time in over thirty years. He says that
all the saloons were closed in that city
on Sunday, but solemnly avers that an
ambulance drove up to a saloon near by
where he was stopping no less than
four times bet seen the hours of 8 and
11 o’clock on the evening of that day.

In answer to the query as to how it is
that court cases are tried before Justice
Morrell we will state that each have all
the cases on alternate weeks. Don’t,
please don’t waste time, paper and
postage in asking the “whyness” any
more. Everything is perfectly satis-
factory to the Justices in question, and
politics as some of our corresp0ndents
seem to think has nothing to do with it.

There was a good attendance at the
meeting Of the South Norwalk Union
school district last evening. Mr. Nel-
son Deckerman was re-elected clerk
and Jacob M. Layton treasurer,Frank-
lin Tolles, collector and John W. Dake

ed a member of the school committee,
vice R. H. Golden, time expired and
A tax of two
and one-half mills was laid. The com-
mittee were authorized to borrow an
amount not in excess of 352,500 for cur-
rent expenses.

Kellogg, of East Norwalk, George Kel
logg, of N orwalk, Mrs. Harriet Quack-
enbosh, of this city, and Mrs. Eliza
Selleck, of New Canaan aners. Cath-
erine Lockwood, of Stamford are also

for the late Fred St. John, and while

hundred years ago couldn’t have been any
truer if he had had a Nineteenth Century .-,

sort of an impression you are creating,
but you can 'make up your mind that
