The Great Yacht Race.
All the past week nearly everybody
has read and watched closely the news
of the Vigilant and Valkyrie, and are
anxiously waiting for the race. which is
to decide whether or no America is tO
retain the cup. As the time draws near
the enthusiasm and faith in America's
defender grows, and New York harbor
will be filled with craft as never befdre,

COO-_—
The Election.
A more glorious day for voting never .
beamed on a patriotic people. All sorts
of tickets were in the field, and never
were so many pasters put in circulation.
It is believed, however, that no great
number found their wayinto the ballot
boxes. Treachery is charged on both
sides. The friends of James Mitchell
are accused of cutting one of the demo-
cratic assessors. Mr. Hawxhurst is
charged with pasting the name of gal-
lant Col. Daskam, for Selectman, over
that of Oscar W. Raymond, on the
— Republican Town Ticket, and his own
name for Assessor over Wm. B. Hen-
drick, who was put on the Democratic
Ticket. But these little irregularities
are not likely to prove very serious. A
most serious blunder was made in the
copy sent the GAZETTE, the Sentinel
and the Hour, for the Town ballots. In
the copy sent the GAZETTE and Sentinel
the name of GEORGE B. ST. JOHN, for
. Collector, was omitted. In the Hour’s
copy the name of George F. Bearse,
fcr‘Auditor, was omitted. These errors
were soon discovered and corrected
tickets printed. In the corrected tick-
ets reprinted by the Sentinel, the cap-
tion word “Republican” was left off.
It is feared these ofiicial accidents will
imperil Collector St. John’s and Audi—
tor Bearse’s elections. A final count
io-night, of the vote cast, can only de-
termine the result. This all goes "to
show the folly of deferring the printing
4 of ballots until the last moment.
'Eoot-ball Begins.
Readers of the quotidiurnal press
have probably remarked, among other
. signs which indicate the rule as well as
the return of autumn, the reappearance
of dispatches from the great foot-ball
centres. The foot-ball season is indeed
already in its opening stages—one
might almost say throes—and from now
on until Thanksgiving Day the game
will grow to be the tyrant of us all,
showing itself every minute a bigger
and a sturdier tyrant, which will not
down until thathcercmonial turkey has
been eaten. ,
As before, it become necessary to Ob_-
serve that the indications are ”for a
more successful season than ever. We
have had great foot-ball years, but this
is to be a Pentagruel to all of them.‘
There will not only be more colleges
playing first-rate foot-ball, but more
and more colleges playing second and
third rate, and as for preparatory
school and club elevens, the tale of
them will be infinite, and a big two;.
thirds of their games will never get
into the newspapers for more want of
physical space in which to print reports
of them.
All this means a tremendous amount
of physical exertion and a small
amount Of physical risk, which we have
all satisfied ourselves is capital well in;
vested. It may be doubted, however,
whether after the season is over we
shall all be as well satisfied with the
style of game played by thebig elevens.
' From present indications this is likely
to be a battle of giants in which the
smashing wedge will be the distinctive
play, and if open tactics are as much
disregarded as there seems now to be a
fear that they will be, the public will
have its grumble. However, it is too
early to cry caution so far as tactics are
concerned. The - real inclination to-
wards caution comes from a. realization
of the proportions to which the sport
has grown. It is so big and prosperous
that it seems as if it couldn’tcontinue
,to have as easya time as hegetbfoge in,
winning and preserving?piiblicafi‘ece

Hard Times for Policy Holders.
One of the most noticeable effects of
the hard times isereported by the in-
after man come to their offices and an-
miums on the small insurance policies
which they have previously held. They
declare it is no longer possible to keep
up with the payments without- causing
their families to suffer. In. many in-
stances men who have maintained a
life insurance for years have been
s‘obliged to give them up. In the case
of the policies held in endmvment com-
panies this is,very hard, as many of
the holders had nearly reached the en-
dowment limit. . '

Tlme To Boston Changed.
The New York, New Haven & Hart-
ford railroad has announced an import-
ant change in its mail trains, brought
about by the failure of Congress to make
a necesssary appropriation.
The 5 a. m. train out of New York
daily except Sunday, has heretofore
been run as a local express through an
agreement with thegovernment for fast
mail service. Hereafier it will be run
as an accomodation train and will ar-
rive in Boston nearly forty minutes later
than at present, '
The railroad company expresses its
willingness to make arrangements with
government ofiicials whereby the Sun-
day newspaper train, leavinchw York
at 2:35 a. m., may be run every day in
the week, carrying mail” and newspa-
pers only. This arrangement will prob-
ably soon be made by the government.
It will bring New York papers into Bos-
ton at about 8 a. in. daily.

--The Leading Dry Goods Store.
Among the thrifty business establish-
ments that are a benefit and a credit to
Norwalk enterprise, no one more pro-
perly appropriates the designation of
“The Leading Dry Goods Store” than’
Messrs. TBISTRAM & HYATT’B. This firm
opened business here but a few years
ago and has steadily grown in the pub-
lic confidence and esteem. They have
kept in close touch with the purchas-
ing classes by fully supplying their
wants at prices always conspicuously
fair and reasonable. They have at-
tended strictly to their own business.
No not or word of ungenerous criti-
_eism of any competing ‘ fellow mer-
chants, ever emanaite from them. The
success of their neighbors in the same
lines of trade, never irritate or annoy
them. Indeed they rejoice in the pros-
perity of all. _There is no rant or
" blow-hard,” either in their advertise-
ments-or methods of doing business.
They say what they mean and they
always mean to be truthful. Never
more than now, does truthful adver-
tising better pay the merchant, and
this firm has always adhered to this
fundamental fact. The purchasing pub-
lic are uick to recognize firms that
always make good their printed prom-
ises. The merchant who deceives a
buyer makes a fatal mistake. When
purchasers discover deception they
ston trading with the shady merchant.
_ air dealing, low prices, and truthful
representations are the maxims of
Tristram & Hyatt, and when once a
person makes a purchase of them, he
or she is sure to become a regular pa-
tron, for very rarely indeed is anything
in their line called for that they cannot
supply. Again, it pays to be fair and
honest, and therefore it pays to trade
at “ The Leading Dry Goods Store.”

An Impressive Occasion,
In his consecration on Friday last to
the service of Almighty God of St.
John’s church, Bridgeport, Bishop
Williams performed another of those
memorable functions which have so
signalized his eventful episcopate, his
act of consecration also attesting that
after a wise and generous expenditure
of one hundred and sixty thousand
dollars, the grand old mother parish of
that city of wonderful growth is in un-
incumbered possession of one of the
most stable and stately structures for
christian worship and one of the first
and finest ecclesiastical establishments
in the land. ‘ ._ .
The work was inau urated and the
building of the splen id edifice com-
pleted under the rectorship of Rev.
Eaton W. Maxcy D.D., whose endeav-
ors were succeeded by those of Rev.
Dr. Edgar ,A. Enos, and elaborated and
extended by Rev. Dr. I. S. Lindsay,
and finally nobly consummated by the
present incumbent, Rev. Wm. H. Lewis.
_The arrangements ion the consecra-
tion. were admirably conceived and
carried out. The Blshop was attended
by the Archdeacon of the county and
many of the clergy of the diocese."
The sermon was an excellent one, the
music,.bot-h vocal and instrumental, of
that high quality. for which St. J ohn’s

is a masterpiece of taste, was the tablet

for his worth, and ability, and reat

monwealth, an early rector of Bridge-

guished church family, some of the
members of which helped make up the

“The Rainmaker” was the tittle of a
farce comedy presented at the Bedford
avenue theatre last night before a large
and enthusiastic audience. It was writ-
ten by Frank Dumont for Donnelly and
Girard of “Natural Gas” fame,and as it
was the first performance given it on
any stage more than ordinary interest
was manifested in‘ 1t8_ production. The
farce is bright and Witty, and the jokes
are new and original. The singing was
excellent,and the chorus was, more than
ordinarily good. Mr. Donnelly as Per-
cival Airtight a hotel clerk, and Mr.
Girard as Phelix.Bottl'es,a hotel porter,
were the principal funmakers, and they

the expert hands of Mr. Aldrich, who

Talk Ofa Compromise on the Silver
Question—No Signs of a Vote on
the Repeal Bill—Little Inter-est in
the House.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.——The ninth week
of the present session of congress began to-
day, and the result of the work so far ac‘
complished cannot be said to be encour-
aging to persons who had hoped. for a
speedy adjustment of the great financial
question which caused the issue of the call
for the special session. The present out—
look is towards the continuation Of the do-
..bate which has been in progress for the
last five weeks in the senate. The renewed
talk of compromise legislation, however,
gives the impression in some quarters that
the end may be near.
The list of speakers has not been com~
plate for this week, and it may be assumed
that when it is the names of few repeal
senators will appear upon it, and the de-
bate will be left almost altogether to the
silver men. Three of these —Teller, George
and Morgan—are entitled to the floor at
any time to conclude speeches which they
have begun but not finished. Mr. Call of
Florida has signified a desire to address
the senate, but his is the only speech fOrm~
ally announced.
The week’s business in the house will
be confined, so far as can be stated, to a
continuance of the debate on the election
bill, under the order which will exhaust
itself on the 10th inst. The debate as far
as it has progressed has failed to develop
any of the intensity of partisan feeling so
freely predicted Of it. In fact, it has been
rather tame and uninteresting, and on one
or two days last week an early adjourn-
ment was necessitated because there was
no one ready to proceed with theni'gument.
An improvement in this respect is antici-
pated this week. The expectation is that
the debate. like that on the bill for the re.
peal Of the silver purchasing law, will in-
crease in interest toward the close, and go
out in a blaze of glory, so to speak. There
area number of measures on the calcu-
d or which committees may call up during
the consideration morning hour, but it is
not probable that any of them will be
brought to the attention of the house, for
the time for discussion is too brief to war—
rant expectation of definite action.
Considerable work will be done in com-
mittee rooms. The committee on bank-
ing and currency will continue its hearings
on the financial measures pending before
it, Representative Davis of Kansas being
first on the list for to-morrow morning.
IVANTS IMTMEDIATE REPEAL. .
South Carolina’s Populist Treasurer
Against the Sherman Law.
COLUMBIA, S. 0., Oct. 2.——-The State
publishes an interview with State Treasurer
W. C. T. Bates, who has been appointed
by Governor Tillman a delegate to the St.
Louis convention. Dr. Bates was elected
with Governor Tillman on:the alliance
platform and it Was supposed he favored
the Ocala demands. In his interview he
favors the immediate repeal of the Sher-
man law, believing it will result in instant
relief to the greatest numbers. Subse-
quently, he says, other financial legisla~
tion can be had. He does not think that
free silver will do What its friends claim.
He is for bimetallism,’ but believes the finan-
cial problem can only be solved by careful
legislation. The pledges of the democratic
party made at Chicago should be faithfully
kept. If they are not there will be a reck~
omug,
The financial vicws of the state treas-
urer have caused surprise as they are di-
rectly opposed to those of the remainder
of the state administration who stand
upon the same financial plank as the pop-
ulists.
