The Gazette has the largest cir— culation of any paper in Norwalk. and furnishes the lowest advertising rates. An Extra Gazette. ' An issue of the DAILY GAZETTE will shortly be published in the interest of the town of Norwalk, and is intended to embrace a complete list of the busi- nessAand professional men, showing what facilities we have to offer to man- ufacturing and other industries to lo- cate in Norwalk. This issue Will give unusual advantages to our business men to widely circulate their interests. An authorized agent for the GAZETTE will call on the business and profession- al men, and we feel confident-they will give the enterprise their hearty support. .0 Reserving Him for Governor. The Bridgeport Farmer publishes an interview with a Democrat said to be well posted, who, after saying that Mr. Benedict of Greenwich never aspired to and would not accept a Cabinet posi- tion, continues : “But we’re not going to allow Mr. Benedict to keep himself in the background. He’s going to be the next Governor of this State, and he’ll make a Governor, I am confident, that the people of this State will be proud of. No State more than this needs in a Governor the thorough busi- ness ability which is possessed by Mr. His capacity for making and retaining friends is remarkable, and he has also that qualification poss- essed by few men of securing the confi- generai. He’ll make one of the best Governors this state ever had and after that~—weli, thqre are higher positions.” A New Tax Row. Messrs. Oliver E. Wilson, George M. Holmes. Eben’r. J. Hill, Jacob M. Layton and E. O. Keeler, succeeded in having the town Board of Relief cut down the assessments of their respec- tive bank stock holdings thirty per cent! This discovery, which resulted from an accidental sight of one of the party’s tax list in the town’s bound vol- ume, caused the most intense excite- ment and indignation on the part of other local bank stock owners, because they had not been similarly treated. The Board of Belief consists of Messrs. Bradley S. Keith,Platt Price and Henry S. Seymour. Mr. Seymour was at once sought and the demand made to know why, when this was done for the parties named, in fairness and equity the same abatement was not made on the lists of all bank stock owners alike ? Mr. Sey- mour said he was opposed to the re- duction as unfair, unless it was to be made for all, but was overruled by his two associates on the Board, the excuse for their action being that no one else had asked for any. abatement. The answer to this was, that no other bank stock ownershad any knowledge that such an abatement was to be, or would be made for anybody, and in effect, if not in fact, it was asecret, irregular and indecent transaction. To this it is answered that there was no justice in rating property invested in banks at any higher rates than when invested in real estate or other property. That while the practice had obtained of tax- ing all sound and prosperous bank stocks up to their full par value, if not up to premium value, it was an unjust discrimination, inasmuch as real estate and personal property rarely went into the lists at an appraisal of more than two-thirds value. The amounts assessed respectively and the five abatements, are as fol- lows : Ass’d Ab‘t’d Q. E. Wilson. $1,000 Bk. Norwalk $1.000 $300 13. J. Hill. 2.300 “ “ 2,300 690 or. M. Holmes, 5.000 Central 5.000 1,500 E. O. Keeler, 5,200 Fairfield Co. 5.200 1,584 J. M. Layton, 1.600 So. N. City 1.600 480 The simple fact of the abatement is not the cause of so much bitter. and in- dignant criticism as the fact that it was, as is charged, secretly limited to these five gentlemen and no one else given knowledge that such a condition of things had been inaugurated by the Board of Belief. The claim is made and with a show of justice, that if an abatement was to be made for one. it ought to have been made for every bank stock owner in town and the pub- lic sentiment will be very likely to set—- tle upon this reasonable conclusion. What the end is to he, cannot as yet be stated. The Board has held its last session. Whether it «can 'be legally called together again to right the If it cannot then law suits and injunctions are like— 1y to result for the feeling is too in- tense to let the matter drop. _-———.—~—<A—— o 9 o _______. t I —A ten horse-power Engine and Boiler will be sold cheap for cash. ~TERSE TALES OF THE TIMES. .

There will be no justices of the peace in- the state of Connecticut on .l‘hursday, Friday and Saturday of next week. It seems that by statute the terms of the various justices of the peace elec- ted all over the state begin on the first Monday in March and last just two , ears. Two years ago the terms of Justices began on March 2d; which was the date of the month that Monday happened to come on. This year the first Monday does not come until March 6th. The terms of the old justices will ex- pire at midnight on March 1, which is a Wednesday, thus completing their two years, while the new justices wont begin their duties until the 6th of March, which comes on Monday. If the old justices attempt to continue in office on Thursda , Friday and Sat- urday they may fin themselves in an unpleasant predicament. The probabil- ity is that now that attention has been called to the matter there will be no justice of the peace on those days and the legislature will probably amend ' the law to prevent a repetition of the complication in the future.

It was one of the typical modern melo dramas with the heavy villain” the old hag. the lovenand the rollick- ing soubrette. The Villain in between schemes, found time to sing one of Harrigan’s latest songs in a deep basso voice; the old hag changed her cos- tume and sang, “I am the Pet of the Dudes,” and the lover danced a sand jig. That wasn’t so had; what broke George all up, was in the third act; the scene was supposed to be in the far West, during a blizzard; the snow was flying thick and fast, and the hero of the piece had lost his way and was slowly dying a horrible death' from ex- posure, when .in dashes the soubrette in a short dress wearing a straw hat. She sings a song, does a few jig steps and then turns around, walks to the back of the stage and rescues the un- fortunate hero from the terrible storm, amid great applause from the gallery. - George says that settled him. He hur- ried out of the theatre as quickly as possible. He said he would not have stayed to see the last act for a ten dol- ' lar bill. MUSIC HALL. .

A‘ communication from Rhody Mc- Ginnis. in which he ofi‘ered to remove from the streets of the borough, gar- bage ashes, etc., for 25 cents an hour was read and the matter referred to highway committee. Burgess Glover made a statement to the effect, that he had heard not a little complaint in reference to the service given the borough by the Norwalk and South Norwalk Electric .Light com- pany. He stated that several of the lamps were burning scarcely,- half the time. andthat the service was far from being satisfactory. The clerk was in- strueted to so notify the company.

Borough Clerk Hubbell stated that he had spoken to Attorney Warner in reference to the matter and also Attorney ‘Hurlbutt, "both of whom were interested in drawing up its pro~ v‘isions, etc., but neither gentlemen knew as to where *‘the original docu- ment was. Mr. Hurlbutt stated how- ever that he had a copy of it. Mr. Hubbell was instructed to procure a copy of the same and present it to the present General Assembly. The court then adjourned. .0. USE DANA’S SARSAPARILLA.IT’S “THE KIND THAT CURES.” The Mystery Solved. There has been the greatest curios- ity for a long time, to discover how it was that long after midnight and when the electric lights on the East side, had been extinguished for hours and all honest people were supposed to be in bed, if not asleep, that these lights from the M. E. church, to Cross street. Belden avenue and River street would suddenly flash up and turn the deep darkness 'ust before day, into .mer- idian brig tness. This was not only a deep and imcomprehensble mystery, to the natives who chanced to be awake but a source of serious mortification and embarassment to sundry benc- diets who had tarried too long at the wine or other intoxicants and made “a night of it” With the boys and were sneakincJr home’ in the wee sma’ hours of the usky morning and trying to conceal themselves—and their inebria- ted condition from any chance street walker and their families. These habit of flashing ful upon them and revealing their identity and condition. These eulprits attributed it to some mischievous wight connected with the Electric Light works, who as they thought, . was set upon giving them away. And so the. wonder grew, until now the murder is out. It seems that the Superintendent of the Elec- tric plant has a strong weakness for billiards and betimes remains pushing long after Qmidnight, when he tele- phones up to his assistants to flash on the lights 50 that he may escape mud and pitfalls en route home. This as we are assured is the full explanation of the mystery. USE DANA’S SARSAPARILLA,IT’S “THE KIND THAT CURES.” O $7 and Thirty Days.
