Two hund- red." cents would have hit nearer to the no e. John Tryon was out in his new yacht, ‘ ‘Tryonica1,” this morning. She would have skimmed over the water like a duck, but that John was unused to sail— ing her. James Dooley, of Georgetown, “saw dogs” yesterday, and was placed in one of the cages at the station-house. J us- ticeSmitli, this morning, fined him for seeing them. Speeler Smith managed to get far enough away from the creek yester- day tO pick a couple barrels of apples. He says that he is lame to-day, as a re- sult of not sticking to his legitimate business. Douglas Fowler’s brother Edward is celebrating his 51st birthday in this city to-day. He is so like his lamented brother that we cannot help making mention of the fact. Whole-souled and a brave defender of the Union. “Mike” Colgan, the night baggage- master at the Consolidated railroad de- pot. went to New York yesterday to have an operation performed on his neck for the removal of a troublesome lump, possibly of a cancerous growth. His friends pray for the success of the operation. It is stated on good authority that there was a republican star-chamber meeting the other night in which it was decided to “work the caucus” for Charles W. Hallock for Mayor, and Tallmadge Baker for first selectman from this section. The caucus will be held this evening. Mabel Mead, the nine year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Mead died at her home on Maple avenue, East Norwalk, early this morning. Much sympathy is expressed for the family in the oss of this, their only child. A_child of whom ’tis said a sweeter dispositioned one never lived. Henry-Weismantel, who came here last spring from Newark, N. J., to work at his trade, carpentering, re- turned to Newark, this morning. Mr. W. was a member of Glover’s Ameri- can Band, 9. c ornet player in the same. He has many friends here who will be pleased to learn that he has cast his hnes in pleasant places. It was not a little South Norwalk girl who, during the absence of her mother at a Christian Endeavor meeting said to a caller, “Mamma has gone to a Christian and devil meeting,” but it was a little South Norwalk girl who said, “Mamma, I’d rather stay home and make believe have the stomach ache than go to church and have the preacher make my head ache.” There was a flag-raising at the Now- ton school house yesterday afternoon. Speeches were made by Revs. Mr. French and Requa. Singing by the school and a _fine recitation of “Bar- bara Frietchie”' by a Miss Smith,of the school. About fifty Veterans from the Soldiers’ Home were present and gave a hearty huzza as the “old flag” was unfurled. . The schooner Ann, of Boston, came into port this morning with lumber for Borough parties. Capt. “Sam” Byxbee, who stood ,on the Washington street bridge, as the vessel passed through, remarked that he sailed on her thirty years ago, and glancing at “Speeler” Smith, who stood nigh said, “that craft is older than you are, Theo.” Which leads us to the conclusion that the boat is nigh onto seventy years of age. ' Georgetown A special train on the Housatonic’I road struck a team on the crossing at ' _ , yesterday afternoon, throwmg tne occupants of the wagon out, who escaped injury, but the wagon looked as though it had been through a threshing machine. The funeral of Frederick P. Rooney, who died at his home in Bull Run, on Sunday last, will be attended from St. Mary’s church to-morrow at 9 o’clock. Deceased was 22 yrs. of age, a graduate of the high schoolgin this city, in 1887, and had but recently finished an ap- prenticeship at the co-operative hat fac- ory. Sunday morninga “wild” (made so by be1ng chased) duck was discovered in the harbor. Some ten or twelve owners of shot guns ran home on no— tice of the discovery, and after having been shot at a dozen or more times the duck finally died from sheer exhaustion of dodging the shots. Later the own- er of the duck was around trying to learn as to who had killed it. He was more wild than the duck. A certain hotel proprietor was in re- ceipt of a letter from a lady in Mama- roneck, the other day. She claiming to have met him in that place and stat- ing that she would call on him here soon. The hotel keeper was nonplussed, but happily_ he remembered having given a certain party some of his cards for Circulation in that place, and he quickly sought the party out. Like a gentleman the party confessed to pass- ing himself ofi‘as landlord of the hotel. For reasons we will not mention names. However, the GAZETTE is, so to speak, “on to” the whole affair. It is of. but little consequence, but the followng item appeared in the GA- ZETTE of Thursday last, thusly : Mr. Minot Partriek has a violin that is over 100 years old. It was once owned by Vale Ben- nett, of Danbury, of whom it is said he died while playing a solo on the instrument. Mi- not, in viewpf the fact. handles the instru- ment very gingerly. . On Saturday we find it in the Danbury News and on Monday in the Sentinel, as follows: ' _ Minot Partrick, of South Norwalk, has a vio- lin that is over 100 years old. It is claimed the Violin was once owned by Vale Bennettnof Danbury, of whom it is said he died while playing a solo on the instrument. What surprises us is that the Senti- nel “caught on” to the item so quickly. A Dishonest Postal Ofllcinl. ATLANTA, Sept. 29.——Emmett B.
