vice of the Tramway Company, arrived
in this city yesterday morning.
Harry Doulens was arrested last Sat-
urday afternoon for assaulting John
Seymour. His case was continued un-
til this afternoon.
A boy who thought more of sleep than
he did of his church, caused consider-
able amusement for the congregation in
one of the churches last evening by
snoring so loudly as to interrupt .the
pastor’s remarks.
—Boys wanted to sell the GAZETTE in

Now that the Alpha road race is over,

A very interesting game of base ball
was played at Westport last Saturday

the Crystals of this city. The game was
excellently played both teams making
some fine plays. At the end of the game
the score stood five to four in favor of
the Crystals.
The Methodist church was crowded
last night. The services consisted of
music by the choir and congregation,
accompanied by an orchestra. The
musical selections were interspersed by
remarkes by the pastor, Rev. H. E.
Burnes. A quartette composed of Miss
Minnie Fritz, Mrs. Huntington and
Messrs. Whitney and Crowe sang in a
very pleasing manner. '
It is seldom that two horse cars col-

Confined in an English Prison and Draw-
ing a Salary from Uncle Sam.
WASHINGTON, June 19.—The preparation
of instructions by the state department,
which will soon be forwarded to Ambassa-
dor Bayard, directing him to make inqui-
ries concerning the condition of Captain
W. C. Miner, United States army, retired,
recalls the fact, remembered by few peo-
ple that an officer of the United States
army is serving a life sentence in an Eng-
lish prison for murder. It is the only case
on record of a. murderer borne on the rolls
of the army and drawing the pay of his
grade. The salary ($2,000 per annum) is
not paid to him direct, but it goes to his
legally appointed conservator, Richard 1'].
Rice. of New Haven, Conn., and he will
continue to draw it as long as he remains
alive.
It is in consequence of the question of
pay that Ambassador Bayard will be di-
rected to inquire into the condition of the
murderer. Every few years a formal in-
quiry of this. kind is made through the
regular diplomatic channels, in order that
the war department may feel satisfied that
it is not paying a salary to a dead man.
Captain Miner was confined in the
Broadmore Lunatic asylum April 17, 1872.
His oflense consisted of shooting with a.
revolver and liilling a man in the Belvi-
dere road. For several years after his con-
f finement the relatives of Captain Miner
made strenuous efforts through the state
department to secure his release, but the
English authorities would not budge from
their firm stand against allowing any one
to come out of the criminal asylum alive.
As far as known, no American has ever
been permitted to see the murderer since
his confinement.
Captain Miner is now 57 years old. He
was born on the island of Ceylon and ap-
pointed an assistant surgeon from N ew
York in 1886. He was retired in 1870 or
account of organic lesion of the braincon-
quuent' upon a suustroke which he suf.
fared in Florida in line of duty.

HOWMANY PEOPLE .. . - '
Wfigflfi Dread the hot weather, because
of the annoyance of flies, and
’ mosquitoes ? They. get into
your house before you-know it,
make themselves at home‘in
every room, take a bath in
your milk, help themselves to
your sugar, commit suicide in
your tea, spoil your picture
frames and ceilings, and when
. ' ‘ at last you retire worried with
. @WW%% their annoying, they follow you
up stairs and try to amuse you with their singing while
they give you a friendly bite or sting to keep you awake
You ‘can throw a shoe at a cat, or muzzle a dog. but the
slipper has not been made big enough to strike a mosquito
in the right place. You may catch some of them with
poisonous and sticky paper,_but their relations get re-
venge on you, and the papers are not usually very ornamen-
tal, but if you sit on them, they are more friendly than a
brother. Now take our advice ;‘ keep them out at the
start, by supplying yourself with patent screen windows
and doors while we are selling them so low. When the
demand increases. the prices usually go up. A
As long as this ad runs, you can get, in our basement, ‘
ScreenDoors, any size, at 95c, and adjustable Window
Screens at 320.
To-morrow prices may be higher. The more windows
and doors we sell, the more flies and mosquitoes there
. will be for somebody else. But that’s your fault, not curs.
If we had our way we would sell to every home in Nor-
walk, and send all the flies with the tramps to the County
jail. . I
