THE FAVORITE HOME PAPER.

culation of any paper in Norwalk.
and furnishes the lowest advertising

Another Side.
Some days since the GAZETTE gave a
sample of the ultra rebel settlement
still lingering in the South, in an arti-
cle from a prominent North Carolina
denflcratic journal. We give below
“ another ” and more conservative and
patriotic expression of public opinion
at the South. The article was inspired
by the recent removal and reinterment
of the, remains of the arch traitor J ef-
ferson Davis, and ., appears editorially,
in the Fredericksburg, Va., . Free
Lance, as followsi ' .
“ It is too late to question the wisdom
or propriety of making a hippodrome
of the corpse of J efi‘erson Davis. Amid
all the pomp and circumstance of a
stately ceremonial," his remains have
been transferred from their repose
among the magnolias of Louisiana to a
final rest beneath the whispering pines
oi battle-scarred Virginia.
d It is a relief that it is over and that
the curtain has been rung down on the
last act of the Southern Confederacy.
Mr. Davis and his associates commit—
ted one of those blunders that has been
characterized as worse than a crime;
but it was a blunder in which a great
people united,.and for which they free-
ly shed atoning blood in copious
streams. Central figure amid the blaze
' of that four years of misbegotten glory
shone Jefferson Davis, chieftain of a
lost cause and a misguided people.
Unforgiven martyr of his own mistake,
the dignity of his latter years of pen-
nance shrouded in deep oblivion the
glaring faults of a meteoric career.
Too proud to sue for pardon, too noble
to complain, as he lived died Jefferson
Davis, patiently enduring the conse-
quences of his own acts. As he had
spent the declining days of his life
withdrawn from observation and se-
cluded from all publicity, it would
- have seemed more in consonance with
the purpose of his latter years to have
laid his body quietly at rest upon the
bosom of his native state. But Mr.
Davis had won the love, the admiration
and respect of the people he had led in
the lost cause, and they demanded that
his remains should rest at the capital of
the nation he created to die at its birth.
In all this broad land no one Was found
to say nay, and so he was laid to rest to
await the call of the arch-angel’s trump
on that spot around which for four
years had surged the crimson tide of
battle—in a soil his bidding had
drenched with the blood of his people.
It was the last public tribute the
Southern states will pay—as states—to
the dead Confederacy or its heroes; it
is the last time that the casket of that
dead past will be unclosed, and it is
well it should be so. It may linger in
memory as a beautiful romance; it will
live in history as a glorious episode in
our national life, ud it will be known
forever as an epoch of heroes; but it
was buried from all time on Wednesday
in the tomb of Jefferson Davis, and
over that tomb was rolled the stone
that naught but the touch of the angel
of resurrection will remove. We are
glad that it is so, for there is greater
and better work in the future for the
Southern people than holding, ghost
dances. ” {'3’ I
Too Bad.
A woman attracted considerable at-
tention on Main street this morning by
reason of her stopping in front Of a
store and proceeding to make her toi-
let, at the same time depositing a large
package of clothing on a convenient
fish bench. After arranging her hair,
fixing her bonnet, etc., she picked up
the package and proceeded up the
street to the American restaurant where
she went'in and applied for a situation.
A reporter learned that she was at one
time in the employ of Rev. Mr. Gra-
ham, and had some weeks since been
fined for drunkenness. Evidently she
has again been flirting with intoxicants.
Unless she be careful there is a proba-
bility of her renewing her acquaintance
with Justice Austin.

BIG'DAY AT THE FAIR.
Over Seventy-five Thousand Paid Admis-
sions Yesterday.
CHICAGO, June 8.—Yesterday was a big
day at the fair, there being 75,109 paid ad-
missions, besides the usual army of dead-
heads. A magnificent silver statue of
Columbus was unveiled yesterday in the
Gorlium Manufacturing company’s pavil-
ion iii Manufactures hall. There was no
ceremony. The statue stands six feet six
inches, and is by Bartholdi. The statue is
believed to be the largest silver piece in
existence. The exhibitfwas thrown open

Most of the buildings/are in fine order,
all displays 'havin'g ,7 been arranged, al-
though there are some sections of Manu-
factures, Agriculture, Electricity and Min-
ing yet to be put in positiOn. Brazil’s ex-
hibit in Mines and Mining is being rapidly
put in order, but it will be two weeks be-
fore it can be opened to the public. Penn-
sylvania’s display in the same building is
about complete and will be opened to the
public without ceremouylon Saturday. The
fifty foot anthracite needle, with the name
”Pennsylvania”'on its base, which stands
in the centre of the building, was finished
three weeks ago and is one of the sights of
the department of Mines and Mining.
West Virginia’s coal, coke and building
stone display was thrown open today with-
out ceremony. Wisconsin’s exhibit in this
department will not be opened until about
the 15th. '

Driven off With Guns.
The town of Canaan is in a state of ex-
citement over an attempt to rob the
house of Chauncey W. Smith Wednes-
day night. ' A gang of burglars has
been operating in southern Berkshire
for some time, and this is supposed to
have been the same crowd on its way
through Connecticut. Mrs. Smith and
her daughter were alone in the house
and drove the burglars off with guns.
They gave the alarm by firing the guns,
and the‘neighbors came to their aid. A
posse of farmers was at once organized
and tracked the burgulars, at last ac-
counts having driveu into the woods.
The burglars arearmed and trouble is
feared. - ' »

The Holcomb amendment to the pool
bill was passed by the Senate Wednes-
day. It provides that the provisions of
the original act shall not be construed
as prohibiting the giving of purses as
premiums for trial contests of skill,
speed or endurance of man, beast,
bird or other machine, and the charg-
ing of an admission or record fee to
any such trial. or contest. , -
This leaves in force the rigorous pro-
v1sions of the original act against pool
rooms and gambling by other agencies
_and makes the bicycle and other athlet-
ic clubs the concessions they asked in
numerously signed petitions. Only Fox
and Hall voted against the amendment.
Those who spoke in favor of it were
Holden, Phelps, Holcomb, Milner and
Coffey.
There was also passed in concurrence
the bill allowmg a taxpayer and elector
to become a signer on more than one
license application. Also a bill provid-
ing a penalty of $10 for any person
who shall use, traflic in, sell, dispose of
or convert, multilate, destroy or detain
after demand by the owner, any butt,
hogshead, barrel or half barrel used in
the manufacture or’sale of malt liquors
Without permission of the owner unless
the package was sold with the contents.
Each subsequent offence is punishable
with a fine of $20 or three months’ im-
prisonment.
Rejected the bill that no native or
duly naturaliZed citizen of this state
shall be granted a liquor license or be-
come an application signer or bonds-
man. Also rejected in concurrence the
eiv11 actions bill permitting in suits
where judgment is entered by default
the assessment of damages by a jury to
either party to the action. A resolu-
tion was passed incorporating the Port
Chester 81: Glenville railroad company,
and also an act relating to the borough
of New Canaan.
In the House the Military committee
submitted a favorable report on‘ the
bill creating four companies of naval re-
serves, their location to be determined
by the commander-in-chief. As intro-
duced the measure provided that the
companies should be located at Bridge-
port, New Haven, Hartford and New
London. The Appropriations commit-
tee recommended the payment of $5,-
000 this year and a like sum next year
to the state Homeopathic hospital at
New Haven. The accounts of ex—Gov-
ernor Bulkeley were reported correct
and their payment aecommended. Ta-
bled for calendar and printing.
A favorable report was made on the
restoration of forfeited rights to Abel
Atkin and William Cole of Danbury.
The principal debate was on the adul-
terated food bill which is a production
of the Bridgeport Board of Trade. Cal-
lahan’s motion to indefinitely postpone
was lost, 106 to 43, and the bill then
passed in its original form.
Some discussion also arose on the act
prohibiting Sunday concerts. Callahan
moved as an amendment that anyone
attending such concerts should be fined
$510 and costs:
Such a law formerly existed and Ca]-
lahan revived it to make the general
measure obnoxious. His motion was
defeated, as was also an amendment
permitting Sunday concerts if given
under the auSpices of a religious society
and licensed by proper authority. Then
the bill itself was rejected. .
Incorporation acts were passed incor—
porating the B. C. and M. M. R. club
of Southport; the Y. M. C. A. of Dan-
bury ; the city of Stamford and the
Shelton Street Railway CO. The South-
port club is organized for social purpos-
es and the building of a casino.
Other measures passed provided for
evening Schools in all towns of 10,000
or more inhabitants, and a standard
form of fire insurance policies.
The bill allowing women to vote in
school elections come from the Senate
which passed it, 11 to 4.
The Republicans and Democrats both
caucused for a candidate for school
fund commissioner to succeed Jeremiah
Olney. The Democrats nominated Rep-
resentative Charles Marlow of Brook- '
lyn. The Republicans made no nomi-
nation but will probably put forward
Mr. Olney.
Prosecutor Klein of Bridgeport pre-
sented a bill creating the office of as-
sistant prosecutor at a salary of $300.
It Will probably be favorably reported.
In the Senate the committee on Tem-
perance reported adversely on a bill to
prevent the sale of adulterated liquor.
The bill was rejected.
The committee on Claims reported
favorably on a resolution paying the
town of Huntington $25.
_ These matters were passed : Provid-
ing that in cases where damage has
been done to sheep, lambs or cattle,
the amount of damage shall be assessed
by :a selectman and a person to be
deSignated by the party suffering the
damage, a third person to be called in
in case of disagreement; providing for
the enforcement of the laws for the
propagation and protection of fish.
A bill providing that licenses shall
not.be granted to registrars or deputy
re istrars of voters was rejected.

bill fixmg the terms of the Fairfield
county Court of Common Pleas.

were strewn along her pathway from the

west entrance of the Midway Plaisance at

monies received her royal highness. Col-
onel Edmund Rice, commandant of the
Columbian Guard, ' with his staff, then
formed in advance of the party, followed
by the corps of cadets of the Michigan
Military academy, now encamped upon the
exposition grounds. The column then
moved east to the main grounds along the
Cosmopolitan Midway Plaisance and
south along the lagoon to the west'en-
trance to the Administration building,
where the military organizations formed
in line on each side, the royal party pass-
ing between the entrance. There they
were received by Thomas W. Palmer.._
president Of the World’s _ Columbian fair;
H. G. Higinbotham, president of the
World’s Columbian exposition; George R.
Davis,director;Commissioners Schwab and

which a tour of the grounds was made in
