Miss Maud Holt, of East Norwalk,
is visiting friends in Danbury.
Miss Emily St. John, Of New York,
spent Sunday with Mrs. C. J. Dann
of Maple avenue, East Norwalk.
Mrs. R. H. Plaisted and Mrs. Lau-
der returned on Saturday night from
their enjoyable visit 111 the White
Mountains.
It is a query in the minds of many,
where the men who make excursions by
water on Sunday and return in an In-
toxieated condition, get their rum:
Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Jennings, of
Brooklyn, are spending a few days at
the home of his mother on West street
before making a trip to Boston and the
East.
T. S. Glover and family, Burr_Glover
and wife, W. B. Glover of this City, and
Mrs. Babbitt of New Haven, enjoyed
Mr. C. W. Rodger’s hospitality at
“ Pearl” camp on Nauvoo Island for a
few days last week.
An unknown man was struck bya
train on the railroad drawbrigde Satur-
eay afternoon, but was believed not to
be very badly injured as he quickly
picked himself up and commenced a
series of revolutions as if wondering
whether a train of cars or a whirlwind
had struck him, and then he hustled
away.
The “ boys in blue ” arrived home at
3.40. Saturday afternoon. - They all
seemed to look happy and all spoke of
having had a good time. They formed
in line at the north end of the depot
and the last seen Of them they were
marching 11p Main street towards the
Armory.
The meeting of the Union Gospel
Temperance Reform Association. yes—
terday, was full of interest. The sub-
ject of “Temperance” was discussed,
and all left feeling assured that the
cause was progressiug slowly but sure-
ly, and that there was no cause for dis-
couragement.
A large black Newfoundland dog was
to be seen bathing in the south twin
lake on Railroad square this morning,
and he acted as if he was giving thanks
to our city fathers for the privilege. By
all means preserve the lakes, even if
people going to and from the railroad
station grumble and growl.
A few days since a company of gen-
tlemen from Br .Joklyn. mostly occupied
In the hat trade, took a sail up the
Sound in a yacht, owned by one of their
number, and chaperoned by Mr. C. F.
Beatty, the celebrated tip printer.
Their first landing was made at Indian
Harbor, from whence they sailed to
Dorlon’s. In speaking of the trip all
were pleased with the excursion and
the beautiful scenery on Connecticut’s
shore, one using the Old verse, slightly
changed :—
On Connecticut’s sea-girt shore,
Many an hour we‘ve whiled away,
Llstening to the ocean‘s roar,—
But at night we sailed away.
A passenger on alighting from an east
bound train Saturday afternoon told us
of an incident that he saw from the car
window of the train as it crossed Spring
street. A little-boy and girl were driv-
ing near the track on Wood street with
a pony and dog-cart, when the animal
took fright from the whistle and ran Off
with the two children. Whether they
managed to get control Of the pony or
not, or whether any serious accident oc-
curred to them our informant of course
did not know and we have :been unable
to learn who the children were and so
presume they escaped without serious
Injury. Moral—Keep away from the

POISONOUS IVA-TEE.
‘ Jersey City and Newark Threatened
filth Disease by It.
J ERSEY CITY, Aug. 24.——The deplorable
conditloh of the Passalc river, from which
this city and Newark receive th r supply
of drinking water, has filled t c inhab-
itants of both cities with apprehension
and alarm. The r r in Jersey City
emits a. foul odor and very repugnant to
the taste. It is taken from the river at
Belleville, which lies between the cities of
Paterson and Newark, both Of which are
drained by the Passaic.
The city of Passaic, w Ich is between
Belleville and Paterson, 3 building an
. elaborate system of sewers to empty Into
the river, and many ouses have already
made connectlohs wit the system. Physi-
cians who have examined the water say
that it Is impregnated with decomposing
vegetable matter and poisonous dye refuse
from the Paterson silk fa' cries. The con—
' dition of the water Is he N ot far from
Jersey City’s intake are dozens of factories
and dye works which empty their refuse
and drainage into the Passaic. The Jersey
City reservoir has never been so low.

CAPTURPD BY A FARMER.
John Earnst Had licfrlcnded it Supposed
Tramp, \Yho Turned Out to Be In
I Search of film—The Criminal
Is Now Safely In Jail.
NUMEDIA, Pa... Aug. 24.—-J0hn Earnst
the outlaw, and his brother, VVillIam, who
two weeks—ago clubbed their elder brother
into insensibility and then stabbed a by-
stander, inflicting a fatal wound, has been
captured. While the grangers of this sec‘
tion of the state were holding a picnic at
Johnston’s park two weeks ago a general
riot took place in which John, William
and Joseph Earnst participated.
A Knife Plunged Into the Lung.
They were under the influence of liquor
and the younger boys set upon their elder
brother because he refused to drink with
them. Brit Cleaver, a. bystander, inter‘
fered and attempted to quell the dis-
turbance. John Earnst drew a large
knife and plunged it into Cleaver’s left
lung.
He was carried home in an unconscious
condition and has been lingering between
life and death ever since. John arnst
escaped during the excitement and
hastened to his home.
The Criminal lVas Well Armed.
Constable Beaver hurried to the house
and when about to force open the front
door, which was locked, a voice from the
second story window attract-ed his atten
tion. Looking up he saw John Earnsl
leaning forward with a brace of revolvers
in his hands. The officer beat a retreat
and the,outlaw jumped out of the building
at the rear and fled to the woods. A posse
of citizens scoured the mountains for
several days in search of the fugitive and
when about to give up the chase they came
face to face with Earnst hiding in a. cave.
His brother William had join ed him.
Fearing that they would be lynched if
caught, they at once drew their weapons:
and opened fire. The pursuers retaliated,
but not till three of the posse were.
wounded did the Earnst-s make their es:
cape.
Detectives on Their Track.
The news of the shooting spread swiftly,
and in a. short time bands of citizens from
other sections were on the scene, but too
late to be of any service. Rewards were
then offered for the capture of the fugil
tives and a dozen county detectives started
on the track. Night and day the search
was kept up, during which time every hi1
was scanned, mine breach examined, an
a diligent watch kept on the country for
miles around, but to no avail. It remained
for plain Samuel Reeler, constable of
Franklin township, to make the arrest.
When he left home he said nothing of
his intentions, but told his wife that he
expected to be absent a week on important
business, and that when he returned he
would be a rich man,
He armed himself with a brace of re-
volvers and a Winchester rifle. He. boarded
a train, and after having traveled thirty
or forty miles through a depopulated farm.
ing district, alightcd at a small station.
None of the other officers had ever visited
this section, and he decided to assume the
role of a tramp and make the woods his
sleeping abode. During the day he visited
all the. farmhouses and wandered through
the fields, meadows and mountains, and
slept out of doors.
Face to Face lVith His Game.
Between 1 and 2 o’clock Saturday morn-
ing he was suddenly awakened by a man
falling over him in the darkness. Half
awake, he looked up and recognized John
Earnst. The" desperado turned around to
see what had caused his tumble. When
he saw it was a man he flashed a revolver,
and threatened to blow out Reeler’s brains.
The latter pleaded for his life, saying that
he was only a tramp. They afterward be-
came friends and decided to rough it to:
gether. It was arranged that Reeler was
to visit Elysburg and beg something to
eat, which was willingly agreed to by the
other.
Caught and Jailed.
When he went to this place Chief Bur-
gess was informed of Earnst’s where-
abouts, and a posse of citizens started for
the woods. They scattered in all direc-
tions, and when Reeler declared that he
was not a trump and claimed Earnst as
his prisoner the latter resisted, whereupon
a hundred people rushed in upon him and
realizing that escape was impossible he
surrendered and was taken to the station
house at Catawissa. Here a henrin g took
place, and in default of $5,000 bail Earnst
was committed to the Columbia county
jail at Bloomsburg.
Not 3!me Called on the President.
SARATOGA, Aug. 24.—-The president spent
a very quiet day enjoying a much needed
rest in the Grand Union hotel. His callers
were few and far between. Among those
who called were Judge Groesbeck, of Ohio,
ex—Governor Baldwin, of Michigan; Rev.
Mr. Muchmore, of Philadelphia. Senator
German, of Maryland, called and left his
card, but the president has gone out driv-
ing with Colonel Woolworth, proprietor of
the Grand Union. Secretary Halford was
ill and did not leave his room.
Three Dollars for Votes.
STAUN’I‘ON, Va, Aug. 24,—The local op:
tion election resulted in a clear victory of
the liquor people, who carried the city by
ninety-two majority. The Prohibitionists
declare they will organize a campaign club
and fight again in two years. John Noon,
a prominent politician, who was working
in the interests of the “Wets,” will be ar—
rested on the charge of bribery. It is said
he gave a colored man three dollars to vote
the liquor ticket.
Claus Spreckels to Be Sued.
NEW YORK, Aug. 24.—-—Papers in an ac-
tion to recover $2,000 for violations of the
contract labor law will be filed against
Claus Spreekels, the sugar refiner, in the
United States circuit court Monday.
Mark Sustaric and J osef Zelko, Austrians,
who arrived Friday, will be sent back,
having come over under contract with
Spreckels to work in his California re-
finery.
Pauper Immigrants Returned.
NEW YORK, Aug. 24.——A batch of 128
pauper immigrants, all Russian Jews,
shipped to this country by various Hebrew
emigration committees in Europe, were
placed on board the various steamships
which had brought them to be returned.
These are a part of 300 paupcrs who Were
brought over last week. The remainder
will be disposed of next week.
Phosphorus Produced by Electricity.‘
The large and increasing demandffor
phosphorus, not only for the manufacture,
of matches, but, for its subsidiary applica-
tions in the organic syntheses which form
one branch of modern chemical industry,
and in the production of many of the phos-
phor alloys that have recentlycome into
vogue, has made the question of its ecOr
nomical production of much commercial
importance, as well as Of technical interest.
In the method of manufacture at present
generally employed, the chief cost lies less
in the raw materials than In that of the
plant and labor necessary for the produe
tion of phosphorus from them. Electricity
has been introduced into this process with
increased yield and decreased cost.
The new process is quite simple, con-
sisting merely In feeding In the raw ma-
terials, passing the current between suit
able electrodes, and collecting and condens-
lng the volatized phosphorus In the usual
way. When it is remembered that for-
merly mineral phosphates had to be treated
with sulphuric add, the liberated phos-
phoric acid separated from the calcium
sulphate produced at the same time by fll
tration, the solution of the former concen-
trated by evaporation, mixed with charcoal
and heated stronglyin small retorts, before
reaching the stage in which the more ap-
plication of current now brings the raw
material, the immense advantage of the
new treatment will be seen.
The most important feature Involved is
the application of heat in the very spot
where its usefulness is greatest, doing
away at one stroke with the clumsy prac-
tice of external firing at present employed
in'“ this and many kindred Industries.—

Mildrcd’s Prayers.
Little Mildred, a sweet, golden haired
“tot” of six, had been taught to say,
“Thank God for a. good breakfast” or din-
ner or supper, as the case might be, after a
meal.
The other morning her parents, for good
and sufficient reasons, restricted her to out-
meal for breakfast. When she had finished
she clasped her little hands and began.
“Thank God for”—
Then the raspberries and the ham and
eggs and various other appetizing things
that she had not been allowed to partake
of attracted her attention. She paused for
a moment, and then letting her hands fall
to her side, while a look of deep dejection.
overshadowed her pretty face, she said:
“‘Oh, God, I’se only had oatmeal for
breakfast this morning. Amen.“ -
Her mother, like most good and devout
mothers, has taughtth that if she wants
anything and is a good girl and rays for
it she will be sure to ct it. he other
night she overheard litt e Mildred praying
earnestly in her childish way for a veloci-
pede.
“ ’Cause you know, God," added the
child, in conclusion, "I’se been a good girl,
and mammu told me that If I was a good
girl and asked you for anything you would
let me have It. Amen."
Now the mother is much perplexed be-
cause she doesn’t want Mildred to have a
velocipede and at the same time she doesn’t
want to shake her childish faith in the
efficacy of prayer.
I think that it will end In Mildred’s get-
ting the velocipedc.—New York Herald.
A Newspaper Man Sells Lnnglry :1 Mine.
There are incidents of Lungtry’s visits to
California which are of Interest and which
have never been published. It has been
said, and with truth, no doubt. that she
did many shrewd things in the way of ad-
vertising. At one time she rented a house
somewhere out in the Mission and tried to
make everybody believe she intended to
remain there until gathered to her father’s,
when she would be laid away in an elabor-
ate vault in Laurel Hill cemetery, or some
other city of the dead. But it was all a
myth.
Then she bought some ground over in
Nevada, had a hole dug in it and called it
the Langtry mine. Sam Davis, a well
known newspaper man, says he sold her
the ground for $200. She was in the statue
scene of Galatca In “Pygmallon and Gala.-
tea,” and during the scene Davis was in
the wings. She dared not move a muscle.
He said in a low voice: “Is it a bargain for
$200? [’11 consider that it Is If you don’t
shake your head.” The statue remained
still, and when the Lily came out after
ward she was so taken wlth the orig :ality
of the scheme that she paid the money over

Banana Flbcr.
Manilla rope is made in the Philippine
islands of the stem of the banana. This
stalk, which usually grows to be six inches
in diameter and from fifteen to twenty feet
high, has a very valuable fiber from which
are woven beautiful textile fabrics. Many
of the finest India shawls and wrappers
worn by the ladies of fashion are manu-
factured from this fabric. So, too, an ex-
cellent article of paper is made from It.—
