THE WEATHER.
The weather to-day promises to be
rom rain to partly cloudy, ‘wilhno
very decided temperature changes, fol-
lowed by increasing cloudiness and pos-
sibly by rain and snow. Il’o-morrow it
promises to be {partly cloudy, preceded

WHAT MISS SPINSTER suns:
That the magnificently mild winter
weather is Indian summerish. Out of
doors seemed to be the best place for
Sunday rest.
That the Hon. Asa Smith has accept-
ed a position in Boston with ex-Warden
John H. Lee.
That the singing at Grace church yes-
terday by the Boy Choir was grand and
impressive. Prof. Baker deserves great
credit, and under his able guidance the
boy choir will soon take its place in the
foremost ranks of the choirs of the
state.
That the Woman’s Club will hold its
next reception at the home of Miss
Taylor, president of the club, on New
Year’s afternoon. George W. Cable
will deliver his lecture on “ Creole
Life.” The members of the club and
their friends have a rare treat in store
for them.
A That not so very long ago we heard
about the decline of dancing, that the
Vivacious waltz was about to go out of
vogue ; that the hop, skip and jump
and the serpentine glide to music had
palled on the young men, and even the
young women were quite done with the
pastime. I fail to note, however, as the
announcements of prospective gayeties
begin to blow in from the four quarters,
that there is any very marked decrease
1n the number of dancing parties and
balls. On the contrary there seems to
be an unusual number of such affairs
imminent here in town, especially of a
private character—the idea of young
people forswearing the dance!
_ That the new movement of prominent
citizens for the betterment of life inthis
tpwn differs admirably from ordinary
reform ” enterprises. It seeks to build
up instead of merely tearing down. It
aims at the creation of good conditions
quite as much as at the elimination of
bad ones ; there has been a marked
improvement in our roads of late ; East
avenue was formerly a. winding path, it
is fast becoming a broad avenue ; one
' property owner is about to build six
houses, the corner house having been
rented as soon as it became known; but
it 13 organized pubhc spirit that is one
of the sorest needs of Norwalk.
W—
Glrls‘Who Despise Side—Saddles.
The Dallas (Ore) Four Corners says
that Oregon girls “take the cake ”when
it comes to “buckarooing.” Last week
an emigrant wagon and band of cattle
assed through town with two good-
} coking web-foot irls driving the cat-
'tie,.rid1ng “.strad la” and sitting the
saddle with as much ease and grace as
the most accompllshed vaqueros. ‘
AN ENTIRE FAMILY POISONED. ' i
A Son’s Diabolical Plot and Its Fatal -'
' Consequences. l
LIMA, Peru, Dec. '7.~A terrible tragedy :
occurred near here on Nov. 23. A wealthy :
farmer disinherited his son on account of 5
his dissolute habits and then informed him
of the fact. This greatly enraged the son,
and he concocted a diabolical plot for re-
venge. He bribed the milkmaid with prom—
ises of marriage to poison some milk which
he knew his father would partake of. By
some bungling on the part of the maid the
poisoned milk, instead of going to the father,
was put on the breakfast table, and the en-
tire family, including the son and the milk—
maid, partook of it. All were taken serious-
ly ill and died before medical assistance
could reach them. ‘ '
Colonel Jose Arancibar, the heroic founder
of Peruvian independence and the oldest
officer on the army rolls, is dead.
An Echo of the J olinstown Flood.
PHILADELPHIA,DGC. 7. —George W. Brown,
assignee of Brown & Emery, has begun suit
against the J ohnstown Water company to
recover $23,000 damages, because of being
stopped in the work of laying four miles of
pipe for that company at J ohnstown, Pa, in
1889. The plaintiffs had finished about one—
quarter of the work, when just after the
terrible flood the water company notified
them to stop all operations. This neces—
sitated much more work later on, great in—
convenience and the hiring of labor at in—
creased rates. '
Arrested for Embezzlement.
SYRACUSE, N. Y., Dec. 7.—A warrant was
sworn out here for J eflerson Young, Jr., a
local agent of ‘Nheelcr, Tappan 85 Co., of
Chicago. _ The charge is that he embezzled
$132 belonging to the company. He was ar—
rested in Rochester and brought back here.
He is president of the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. '7.—Chief Justice
Beatty heard the application of M. B. Curtis
for release on bail pending his trial for the
murder of Policeman Grant. After hearing
arguments for and against the motion the
chief justice declared he would remand Cur-
tis temporarily till he had examined all the
testimony in the case.
Sued by the llIarshal.
SALT LAKE CITY, Dec. 7.—United States
Marshal Parsons has brought suit against
The Tribune company to recover $25,000 for
libel. For some time past The Tribune has
kept up a bitter fight against the marshal,
charging him with official dishonesty and
other crimes and then defied him to bring
suit. '

NEW YORK, Dec. 7,—Mrs. Florence, the

this morning. The Umbria was due Satur-
day, but the storms which are now raging
on the Atlantic delayed the steamer.

Only One Other Case Like This.
WINSED, Conn, Dec. 7.-——George Robin-
son, a little colored boy, aged two years,
- who is at the Gilbert Home, is an anatomi—
cal freak. Thc little fellow is very badly dev
' formed, and his heart is situated on the
right side of his body. There the beats can
be distinctly felt. Dr. Pratt, who has ex-
amined the boy, says he never saw but one
similar case before.
{tabbed Through the Lungs.
BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Dec. 7 .—The town of
Stratford is all excited over a stabbing af-
fray which may result fatally. Thursday
night J creme Bowney, a young man of this
town, was stabbed through the lungs, and
the physicians treating him fear that he will
die. He refuses to make any statement as
to how the stabbing occured.

This is the time when the gobbler
ceases to be a gobbler and is gobbled.
This is the time when he pools his

lived, no longer shall he live; when the
carver gets in his fine work and when
nothing but bones are left to tell the
