Silver Repeal Carried.
The repeal bill was passed by the
House last evening, and sent to the
President, who promptly signed it, and
it is now a law. An adjournment of
the special session is now looked for as
likely to occur any day. ,
The New England’s Latest.~
This is the worldly-wise view the
Hartford Courant takes of yesterday’s
telegraphic flap-doodle anent the im-
mediate construction of a new line of
roilroad from the Battery in New York
to the centre of the Hub at Boston.
The Courant in all probability sizes up
the romance correctly. It says:
“The telegraph this morning out-
lines the cheerful talk of President
McLeod of the New England road.
The push toward New York has gone
so far as to secure contracts with a
road not built, and to “authorize” a
contract with the Manhattan Elevated.
The time to talk about this latter im-
portant arrangement is when the Ele-
vated railroad people put their signa-
tures to'it. The story has a very pre-
vious sound and fits too neatly into the
theory that good Russell Sage and oth-
ers are watching the market, with
plenty of the stock on hand to supply
all the demands of an eager public.
One very significant fact is that the
Morgan interest is very large in Man-
hattan and very large in New York,
New Haven 85 Hartford. It is alto-
gether improbable that the right hand
and the left hand of the same power
will go to beating each other. This
makes it very likely that a vote to “an-
thorize” a contract is very difi‘erent
from a contract signed by both parties.
It is a great mistI-tune to the New
England road, a really choice property,
with much value, that for years the
manipulation of its stock has been as
much an industry as the transportation
of passengers and freight. It has been
always for sale and usually the ques-
tion has been how to make the present
existing road to New York take it.
That road with its mighty four track
system and its line clear through to)
Boston has less use for it now than ever
before, and the best thing for the New-
England would be for its engines to go
more and its stock to keep still a while.”

Girl Cyclists.
Girl cyclists who are fond of riding
the silent steed, the roadster who re-
quires neither oats, blanket nor cimry-
comb, and who fears neither elephant
nor road-roller, may be interested to
know that Dr. Oscar Jennings of Paris
has unlimited confidence in the bicycle
as a therapeutic agent. The doctor
is an enthusiast who claims that not.
only is cycling 2. form of exercise er.-
tirely free from objection, but that is
curative of some disorders to which
flesh is heir. He has brought together
a considerable mass of evidence from
medical authorities and from periodi-‘
cals devoted to cycling -mattars and
undertakes to prove that the exercise
is very useful in correcting ailments
brought on by sedentary occupations
and of value n the treatment of con-
sumption in its early stages.
It is not now correct style to be deli-
cate, feeble and languishing. The
modern heroine, says an exchange, cov-
ets physical soundness and grace, and
sets herself attaining them. She affirms
that “health is the vital principle cf
bliss, and exercise of health,” and
is willing to endure hardness if so she
may win the blessing. The cycle girl,
with Dr. Jennings’ approbation, may
enjoy the long exhilarating “spin”
more than ever, knowing that she is
warding off the demon of, ill-health,
with its attendant spirits, melancholy
and fretfulness. '
The cycle girl is no longer consider-
ed a hoyden; if she is stared; at it
is not because she is thought of as “a
spectacle,” those long looks being gen-
erally of honest admiration or honest
envy. The neat, inconspicuous dress,
the trim figure, the firm hand, the
glowing cheek, are pleasant things to
note as she fiits noiselessly'by. The
tennis girl gets a ”tennis shoulder,”
and the horsewoman is harmed by one-
sided development, but the cycle girl,
according to Dr. Jennings, has select-
ed a mode of exercise “entirely free
from objection”—as long as she keeps,
her seat. - , -
A writer in the Detroit Free Press
has some enthusiastic words for the
girl athlete, and our cyclists may apply
them to themselves. She uses, how'.
ever, the w'drdv‘To'mb‘o'yl,” a word now
almost obsolete, but once a term of
reproach and derision. She declares
that the tomboy becomes 'the woman
whose presence is a delight; whose
joyous health and bubbing spirits and
uneonquerable cheerfulness brighten
her world to the farthest horizon. She
is not only an inspiring companion, but
a living, breathing, glorious incarna-
tion of health,—a most beneficent ton-
ic. To look upon her is to feel the
highest beauty of living, and to be
much in her society is to yield unto
her the approval and admiration that
is so dear to the average woman.
When sensible men meet a. grown up
tomboy and take involuntary note of
her royal mein, her elastic tread, her
lithe movements, her relish of free air
and beefsteak, they lay at her feet
their loyal admiration.
This seems to mean that perfect
health of body ensures mental vigor
and a cheerful, kindly spirit. With all
these what might not a woman accom-
plish for the temporal and spiritual
welfare of those with whom she comes
in contact. ‘ -
If such beneficial results are to be
brought about by exercise, and if
bicycling is the most healtful mode of .
exercise, let all those who are not too
aged or infirm to attempt it mount the
invigorating wheel and whirl them-
selves away to happy healthfulness of
mind and body.
There is one lady’s wheel club in
Washington composed of over two
hundred refined and genteel girls,
while it is estimated that over one
thousand women in the Nation’s Capi-
tal own and ride a wheel.
Those Little Meters.
Some weeks ago the GAZETTE chroni-
cled the peculiar antics of the water
-meters, which the Water Commission-
ers had placed upon the motors of a
favored few of the Borough water con-
sumers. The war dance that the little
fingers had participated in as they
waltzed about the dial face in ghoulish
glee, Was honestly portrayed; how they
registered more water than could pos-
sibly pass through the water pipe was
truthfully stated; and how the consum-
ers kicked was also spread before the
public. ~
The effect of the GAZETTE’S article
was wonderful. A representative of
the meter manufacturer was telegraphed
for; a place for testing the meters was
established on Smith street; several
meters were removed and tested, in
fact no expense (to the tax payers) was
spared in the effort to prove that the
meters registered correctly. Has any
one heard of the result of those tests?
Has the information ever been given to
the public that not one of them was
found to register correctly? No, the
public has not been advised of- this
.fact, but it is nevertheless true.
But now comes the most startling
story of those water meters. A story
that convicts, out of their own mouths,
those little dial fingers of prevaricat-
ing. When the meter was removed
from the water pipe on the GAZETTE
office moter another meter was substi-
tuted. It had been tested and found
correct, so the GAZETTE was assured at
the time. The inspector carefully read
the record of the little fingers before
they were allowed to begin their dead-
ly work, and he noted it down in his
official note book. On Tuesday last
the inspector appeared with book and
pencil in hand to record the doings of
those fingers; He gazed upon the lit-
tle imps with a look of satisfaction and
placed their wanderings on the pages
of the official record. With a pleasant
smile he bowed himself out. What was
the astonishment of the GAZETTE’s en-
gineer bright and early the next morn-
ing, to again find the inspector gazing
at that water meter. As he looked at the
dials his face assumed a kind of you’re-
‘a-liar sort of look, but he said not a
word. After again recording thefin-
gers in his official book he took his de-
parture. The cause of the inspector’s
second visit leaked out this morning.
and registered 40,000 less than when
the meter was put in.
No explanation can be given for this
' sudden change of heart on the part of
these little imps, nor has an unusually
high tide been reported that would
have caused them to go the wrong way.
But the fact remains that the Water
Commissioners are indebted to the GA»
ZETTE for supplying their water mains
with 40,000 gallons of water.
P. S. The GAZETTE is in receipt of
an explanation from “Campy.” He
says the water is running the wrong
way in the darned thing.

- Woodward—Hoyt.
In keeping with the rarely bright
and beautiful autumnal day, the golden
sun flooding with loving warmth and
genial rays both earth and air, was the
wedding of Mr. Frederick William
Hoyt and Miss Sarah Lucia Woodward
which took place yesterday afternoon
at three thirty o’clock in the First Con-
gregational Church.
The altar and organ were most taste-
fully decorated with a profusion of
palms and white Chrysanthemums, the
effect being superbly beautiful. The
bridal party entered the church to the
strains of Mendelssohn’s wedding
march, in the followmg order: the
ushers, Messrs. Nelson Taylor, Frank"
Beatty, William Thomas and Charles
Miller; the “maid of honor” Miss Anna
Woodward in Reseda green, and carry-
ing a bouquet of La France roses came
of Washington, Cl... and little Miss
Alice Earle of New York, sweetly radi-
ant in all the innocence of earliest
childhood, dressed in white and hear-
ing on her arm a large basket of pink
roses. Then came the bride upon the
arm of her father, Judge Asa B. Wood-
ward, a picture of the beautiful, robed
in a dress of navy blue cloth, trimmed
in seal-skin, with hat to match and car-
rying a bouquet of bride-roses. The
bride was met at the altar by the
groom and his best man, Mr. Gould
Hoyt. The marrlage ceremony was
performed by Rev. Dr. T. K. Noble,
and Miss Jennie Nash prcSided delight-
fully at the organ. After the cere-
mony Mr; and Mrs. Hoyt left for a
short wedding trip, after which they
will reside in New York. _
At the home of the bride on Elm
street. the house was handsomely dec-
orated with palms and flowers. Mr.
and Mrs. Hoyt received many costly
and beautiful presents of diamonds,
silver-ware, cut-glass, etc., etc. Large
numbers of out of town friends attend-
ed the wedding and all went “merry as
a marriage bell.” Seldom have a bride
.and groom received so many earnest
ben‘edictionsrand such universal good-
wishes and ‘ ‘God-bless-yous. ”

No Change in the Fee.
At the office of the county commis-
sioners in Bridgeport, on Wednesday,
it was said that no change would be
made in the price of liquor licenses
this year.
Of course the saloon keepers would
like to see the license fee cut down but
the commissioners think that every cent
of revenue can be used and even more
if they had it. The license fee is now
$400 a year.
The commissioners yesterday began
issuing county licenses. About a dozen
were issued. This is about the usual
number for the first day. The hard
times will probably make some of the
saloon men hustle in order to scrape
together enough money to pay the fee.

A Cat—fisherman’s Luck.
As was to be expected, this is the way
the never serious and always jocular
Rodcmyer perverts our o’er true “cat-
tale” in his Winsted Herald and tries
to again drown poor pussy with his
levity. He says:
“Norwaik is a little behind-hand with
her contribution to the fish-story com—
petion, but she gets there just the same,
with this little tale: A Norwalker sat
on the dock, fishing. Suddenly he got
a_ bite that startled him and after
"playing” his victim with the skill born
of experience, he succeeded, to his
own amazement, in landing areal live
out, which had swallowed his bait, hook
and all. It traHSpired that the cat,
shortly before, had been placed in a
paper bag, along with a brick, and
thrown into the harbor by a boy. The
air in the bag had kept the cat alive
until she saw the fish-line and bait low-
ered near her, which she accepted as a
rescuing expedition and at once walked
out of her bag, coupled herself onto
the life-line and gave the signal to
hoist away. When she struck the dock,
she lost no time in spitting out the fish-
hook and scampering under a shed to
do up her hair and smooth down her
ruffles before going off to a lawn party
in an adjacent back yard. This may
appear a strange tale, but if anybody
doubtsit, he may go down to Norwalk
and see the dock where the fisherman
sat, and the hole in the water where
the cat came out.”

Q.
The Hawley Case.
States Attorney Fesseuden in the
Superior Court made the plea in the
well-known Hawley murder case Wed-
nesday afternoon. In the audience
were maney ladies whom the gallant
deputies were caréful to see had com-
fortable seats and in a position to hear
the pleas. Those ladies who arrived
late were secured seats notwithstanding
the crowded‘condition of the court
room. They paid close attention to
the arguments and all undoubtedly felt
sorry for the woman whose life hung
in the balance notwithstanding she was
of a different color.
The plea of Mr. Fessendon was
an able one. He reviewed the case care-
fully and made‘point upon point. The
Jurors and spectators gave close at-
tention to his words. Frequently he
turned to Florence Hawley. who sat
next to Attorney Hall and in the rear
of Mr. Chamberlain, and pointing one
hand at her said it was her work. She
never moveda muscle of her face or
acted as if his speech concerned her in
the least. All through the argument
she sat in one position looking straight
ahead and at about half the jurors,
Mr. Chamberlain was at his best and
his plea for the accused. was no less
able than Mr. Fessenden’s. ,He held
that an alibi hadbeen proven and that
the evidence of the children should be;
weighed carefully.-

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.—There is a feel-
ing of relief both among the friends and
opponents of the silver repeal bill now that
the measure has been disposed of.
No Delay By the President.
The president signed the repeal bill at
exactly one hour and thirty-five minutes
after its passage. It was brought to the
white house by Representative Albert J.
Pearson, of Ohio, chairman of the house
committee on enrolled bills, who had made
the trip from the capitol on a cable car.
. Mr. Pearson reached the White house
about 4:25 p. m. and was immediately ad—
mitted into the president’s office while the
president was examining the figures of the
revised vote on the final passage of the
measure. ‘
_ Secretary Carlisle and Attorney General
Olney were present when the president at-
tached his signature.
Carlisle Saw the Final Act.
Mr. Carlisle had come over to the white
house to see the final act in the repeal
legislation while Mr. Olney had dropped
in to consult the president on a. matter af-
fecting his department.
When Mr. Pearson presented the enrolled
cepy of ”the bill to the president, explaining
what. it was, Mr. Cleveland immediately
took up his pen and wrote these words in
the lower left hand corner:
“Approved November 1, 1893, Grover
Cleveland.”
And the bill became a law. _
Today the act will be entered upon the
official record at the white house . and the
engrossed copy of the measure will be sent
to the state department for permanent
keeping.

laiivc touches were put upon the silver

ing parcelled out to some half dozen
speaker——ssteered to a final vote by Mr.
\Vilson (dem., W. Va.) who had charge
of it. ..

" Foot Bali. 4
The Danbury High School foot ball
team came to Norwalk Wednesday to
play the return game with the Y. M. C
A. juniors of this place. The first
game between these elevens, which was
played in Danbury, resulted in a tie,
neither side being able to score. The
game Wednesday resulted the same
way. The Danbury boys should have
won, but at critical times, when good
headwork would have easily carried
them over the line, they changed their
play and lost the ball. Had the captain
of the Danbury team rushed the ball
when on Norwalk’s five yard line, where
it was a greater part of the time, they
could easily have;carried it over'for a
touch-down by their superior weight.
The Y. M. C. A. team, as made up yes-
terday, could not have won by any
combination of circumstances. Their
quarter-back was totally unfit for the
position, and his constant mulling of
the ball when snapped back to him, did
more than anything else to prevent the
home team from scoring, although the
left guard might just as well have been
a wooden man, for the Danbury boys
went through him at will. The splendid
work of Sniffin, Hopson and Gregory
behind the line was all that saved the
Y. M. C. A.’s from a crushing defeat.
