A survey is being made by the West- ern Union Telegraph Company for a cable connection between Wilson Pomt and Oyster Bay. A steamer is now on hand for that purpose. Four white-headed horses and a like number of red-headed girls met on Railroad Place, this afternoon. A pass- ing locomotive frightened the horses and broke up the meeting. The meeting of the U. G. T. R. As- sociation to-morrow afternoon, at their hall promises to be very interesting and profitable to those who Wish _to hear the principles of temperance With no isms discussed.

A fine stage entertainment will be presented each evening. The exact dates and the entertainment pro- gramme will be announced hereafter. A ‘o‘blufi‘er" from-Stamford, was in this city, yesterday afternoon, Offering to bet $5 to 81. that. he could produce a man who could whip. any .man in South Norwalk, another who 'could outrun any man, and another who ‘could out- Scull any City‘p'roduction‘ in the place. When a South Norwalk man, who usually bets to win, offered to take‘ each and all the bets, the Stamford man skulked over to the station and boarded a train for home. ‘ Editor Bailey, Of the Danbury News, who has pitched his tent,and the great. ~ or part of himself, on Bell Island, for - a month, went to Danbury to-day.- Fearing, on his return,.a reception-like that given him at the Island last night, on the arrival of the Medea, he swam over to the island from Wilson Pomt. While on the way over he was shot at three times by a resident of the island, who mistook him for a sea monster. The shooter was “Judge” Brady, an adept at “teaching the young idea how tolohoot,” but'not much of a shot him- se . . . Ben Carrol,who bears the marks of a miner on'h‘is hands has been in town for the past few days, whitling pine sticks which he forms into crosses, and by some hocus-pocus or other, manao‘es to get into a bottle, the neck of which barely admits of the introduction of. any portion of them. More than that, he adds ladders, etc., any one of which it would puzzle 0. person. not understanding the modus operaudi, to get into the bottle. He claims the “how to do it” came .to him as a VISlOD. one night. He said his breakfast this morning was also vision- ary, or rather an illusion, but that of late he has had several such'meals and was getting used to them. Several of the truckmen who make their headquarters on Railroad Place,. were photographed on their respective trucks, yesterday. We have" not, as yet, ‘ seen the picture, but this is the way they appeared to us just before the trap was'sprung. The gay, old festive roos- ter Atemsen looked as if he was sittin on a buzz-saw in full motion: Morrel , as solemn as if he had just lost his horse; Connors, as ugly as if some one had dropped a trunk on his foot; Brown‘ as surprised as though he were about to get married; Crofut, as happfi as if he ad just been presented wit an order for five bags of» oats; Smith, as natural as, he overlooks without that old black pipe between his teeth; Snyder, as nnodestas-a hard shell clam; and Finch, well, he wasn’t in it. . .. .Murdetoru Revenge. .. . LANCASTER, Pa, Aug. 22. — Harry ‘Wright, a young man living at Little Britain, was fatally shot by James M. Jordan, of Cecil county, Md., just across the state lines. Jordan’s motive was re .venge.

It is perfectly right and proper to gratify evegy reasonable wish of (IRS wife, and that is the reason I goth-into a peck or two of trouble 3. short-timesince. When my wife arose from ethog-lsreaki fast table recently she'turuedtogpgigrith . :. ~ .. a question: . ' .. of varnish and a brush from the store 3 “Nothing easier," I replied: “but what on earth do you want with varnish?" “I want to varnish my sewm’g ma.- 5 chine; it is looking awful rusty."= ' I I did not know there were two kinds 1 of varnish—a quick drying and a slow drying—so I simply ordered? varnish ' and a. brush. They would be sent Imme- diately. ' I went on to the office. I took dinner at 'a downtown restau- I rant, and the varnish and‘brush had not entered my mind during the whole day. . J ust'as I entered the gate in the even- I ing I thought of them: _ ‘ 5? “ I It Was “good dark," but the hall lamp had not been lighted. ~ And I think that was‘a. part of the-plot. . I opened the door hurriedly and started in a brisk walk down the hall. _ I had hardly taken‘ a’ step When I rammed my knee against a chair. An- other step—another chair! Both shins skinned and in the dark! I took another step and my foot landed squarely" upon the baby’s little rocker, which proceeded to turn'bottom upward, causing me'to lose my equilibrium, and I went sprawl- ing to the floor, striking two Or three more chairs in the meantime. . It made a terrible racket, and» my wife inquired: ' . “What’s the’ matter, dear?” » “Oh, nothing. Just swinging COrners swered as calmly as possible. I scrambled to my feet and started again, when I struck that ”blasted ma- chine, varnish and all, which landed me this time smack into the baby carriage, breaking the springs and very nearly breaking my neck. “Did you hurt yourself, dear?" came that voice again, which had the effect of making me feel like choking "the life out of something or somebody. _ _ “Did I hurt myself, you ask? Oh, no, not much," said I, “only broke a leg and arm and punched one eye out—that’s all." “Why don’t you come in?" she in- quired in a tone of voice that was re- markable for its calmness under the cir- cumstances. “Come in?” I screamed, “how in the name of sweet Solomon can I? Haven’t I been trying for the last ten minutes to come in, and don’t I run a great risk of ' losing my life every time I try it? Why in the name of all the saints didn't you tell me this morning you were going to move out into the hall, so I could have governed myself accordingly?" , ' Then she came to the door with a lamp, and I succeeded in getting myself untangled from that baby carriage, which presented the appearance of hav- ing been kicked by a Georgia mule. I stepped into my room with a weary, bruised feeling, and laid my hand on the back of a big rocker. ' ' “Don’t touch that—hit is varnished!" “So I discover,” said I, as I pulled my fingers from it. I went over to another chair, and was preparing to sit down. ' ' ‘ ' ‘ “Don’t sit there—it is varnished!" I made a dive for another chair, and was stopped—varnished! ' The clock was ticking very lazily, and I knew it wanted winding. When I en- deavored to take my hands from it. it came with them. My fingers had again stuck—in varnish! I was beeOmin'g desperate. My next move was to tryla trunk—I dared not risk any more chairs. I 'took a seat before she could interfereythis time, and ruined a new pair of breeches by the operation—the trunk was var- nished! This was too much. _ _ “Now, then," said I, after pulling my- self loose from the trunk, “will you please tell me, while I stand right still, Where and what you have varnished? I would like to move intelligently after this. I See the baby has escaped, WhiCh is explained, I suppose, from the fact that your stock of varnish was exhausted before it came her turn.” " ‘ . She looked' at me a moment with a pitiful smile, which . smacked. ‘Somewhat of contempt, and replied: ; “Don’t talk foolish now. Go and sit on the front stoop,” everything will be “Sit on the front stoop, indeed! Have you, then in reality, smeared that stuff over everything?” ” ' ' “Don’t my machine look better?” she said, ignoring my question, and point—’ ing with a satisfied air at 'the' machine, which, by the way, was minus a leaf jerked off in my last undignified fall into the baby carriage. ' . i ’ ' . “Machine? Hang the machine!"‘_ " You did not stop with that; 'you’ve'v'arnislied everything in the house, including the house cat and window curtains!" 1 ex- claimed. with more vehemence than dig- nity. _ “ . " At this Outburst from me she laughed with a. heartiness that was quite un- usual with her, and replied: .. ‘ “Well, everything needed it. I want you to send me another cup tomorrow for the dining table and safe. “You do?” Well, I won’t! I wouldn’t trust you with another ounce of varnish in this house for $4,000,000! Do you un- derstand the amount—$4,000,000! Now. that’s a fact; I wouldn’t!"
