SOUTH NORWALKI ‘
To morrow afternoon is the day set
for Sousa’ s celebrated band to_ appear at
Music Hall, and no one who is fond of
. high class music, either vocal or in-
strumental, should miss this grand
chance to hear it.
The work of cutting Quintard ave-
nue through to the old Woodward
Homestead is now being rapidly push-
ed. New building lots will probably
be opened up and placed on the market
as soon as the work 1s completed.
A large party cf the young friends of
Theodore Byxbee tender ed him a pleas-
ant surprise at his home on South
Main street last evening. Music, re-
freshments and games furnished pleas-
' ant features of the evening ’s enter tain-
ment.
Old Well H. '& L. Co. met last even-
ing for the election of a foreman,
secretary and assistant secretary. Ed-
ward Sniith of East Norwalk was elect-
ed to the position of foreman, Samuel
Wagner was elected secretary and
Jesse M. Ferris, assistant secretary.
At the regular meeting of Putnam
Hose. No.1, last evening, Adolph
D1 eyfuss was elected secretary, vice
A. N. Theriault, resigned, and Guy
Pelton was elected assistant secretary,
succeding Mr. Dreyfuss. Fred Bar-
thol and Louis Sheldon we're appoint-
ed a finance committee. George S.
T1 owbridge and William Hatfield were
elected members of the company.
The meeting of Putnam Hose 00.,
No. 1, held last night, will prove a me-
morable one to many, especially Chief
Engineer John Wehle. At the conclu-
sion of the regular business meeting,
Mr. Wehle was presented with an ele-
gant gold, chief-e engineer ’sbadge. The
presentation speech was made by fore-
man George Bogardus. The badge is
a beautiful piece of work, containing
the various implements of fire warfare,
and bearing the inscription. “J. W.
Wehle, Chief of S. N. F. D. from Put-
nam Hose, N01,1893.” Following
the presentation of the badge, a fine
supper was served in the room below,
and those present made merry until
late at night.
2 The regular meetin of the Board of
Councilmen was held ast night, Mayor
Lockwood presiding and the full board
being present. Bills amounting to
$3,207.12 were audited and ordered
pai
The petition of Chief Engineer
Wehle for a new gong in his house was
referred to the electric light commis-
sioners.
Crosswalks were Ordered on Madison
and State streets.
The electric light commissioners were
voted $150 for the use of the fire alarm
system.
A resolution was then passed, regard-
ing the new city charter, wherein it
was resolved to present the copy of the
new charter to the Committee on Cities
and Boroughs of the General Assembly
and ask them to make a favorable re-
port upon it, although it was not to be
put in force until after the next annual
city meeting, to be held on the first
Monday of October, 1893.
The electric light commissioners were
instructed to make arrangements for a
telephone' 1n the station.
The usual appropriation of $50 was
voted to Douglass Fowler Post for
Memorial Day.
The sewer committee reported favor-
ably on the sewer for HanfordP Place.
The city surveyor was instructed to
make another map of Stuart avenue.
The city clerk Was instructed to draw
orders for $200 in favor of the street
' department, $150 for the chief of police
and $3, 000 for the use of the city.
The council also voted to determine
the center line of the tracks of the
N orwalk Tramway company on the fol-
10wing streets: South Main street to
Woodward avenue and Meadow street;
and also to establish the grade line ori
the same thoroughfares. -

that. This is why we
.vant pure soap; and,
when we say pure, we
mean without alkali:
,Pears’ is pure; no al-
kali in it; no free alkali.
There are a thousand
virtues of soap; this one
is enough. You can trust
a soap that has no biting

MRS. BROWN —“Why, good afternoon, Mrs Smith, I’m so glad you ve come; take off .1; our
things and stay to tea, it seems an age since you were here—the children all well ‘1 ” '
—-"Oh yes, quite well, thank you, but I don’t think I ought to stay to tea
though, I‘d like to ever so much, you always have everything'so nice, how do you manageit '2”
MRS. BROWN—"Oh I don’t manage it at all; you know Mr. Brown does’nt earn but ten dol-
lars a week, and we used to trade at Charge &. Dun’s, and we used to buy the cheapest kind of
meat they had, and went behind every week “at that, but now we have the best cuts or rib roast
(just think, only 12% cents a pound) for dinner three times a week, and then what is 19a is nice
for supper. We think roast beef' 13 just as good cold as it is hot. "
—"So do I, but where 1n the world can you buy it for 12}! cents a pound. we
. have to pay 18. and our butcher says beef has gone up, and next Week it will be 20."
“Why. at the People’s Market, don’t you trade there! I thought everybody
did. You can get lovely strawberries for 18c a quart, and, and, Oh I don’t know what you can’t
get. and the prices, I never saw anything like it.. My husband says its just like Washington
