The hall was crowded with merry dancers and the lovers of terpsichore enjoyed themselves until an early hour this morning. It is al- most certain that a ball will be given every year as the first was such a suc- cess. Last spring Sam Weston went into Mrs. Ann R. Quirk’s store, in East N orwalk and purchased some groceries. As Sam refused to pay his bill Mrs. Quirk locked him up in the store, and afterwards had him arrested. Sam was promptly acquitted, and he in turn brought suit against Mrs. Quirk for false imprisonment. The case comes up to-morrow before the court of com- mon pleas. Captain Henry Hilton, the well. known Rowayton oysterman, has in- vented a clam and oyster dredger, which he thinks will work excellently when entirely perfected.

Mr. Roth prompt- ly rewarded the honest servant girl. Agent Will Blascer at Wilson Point yesterday made complaint that a time clock, a telegraph sounder and several bottles of ink had been stolen from the Point. This morning a telephone mes- sage was received from Blascer stating two Hungarian women were there and that one of them acknowledged taking the clock. Detective Gladstone was dispatched to the Point, but on arriv- ing there‘was informed by Blascer that he did not wish to arrest the woman until he had heard whether the com- pany wanted to prosecute. ' At the council meeting last night- Councilman Fox presided in the ab- sence of Mayor Lockwood. All the councilmen were present. Several bills were ordered paid as was the bill of A. Solmans and William Smith for dam- age by the old Union street sewer. The amount ordered paid was that agreed up- on by the commissioners appointed to assess the damages. The report of the freeholders appointed to assess benefits and damages by the extension of Day street was accepted and the clerk order- . d to publish the same. An agent from the B'tbcock company was present and gave an interesting exhibition of the bachck truck, but as the committee on a paid. fire department made no report nothing was done in the matter. The report of the Cedar street commit- tee recommending that the old layout be accepted was approved. $150 was approprlated for the police department and a like sum to the highway commit- tee, after which the Council adjourned to meet Monday evening, November 20. : _.._ _._._.._-_...~.

The muggy, warm days which always come in the month of September bring with them a. great number ‘of flies and insect pests. which seem to make redoublefi. eflorts to undo all your doings in the way of this premature cleaning. The fresh hangings which are put up too early in the fall are more sure to be fly-specked in September and October than in June. There is a particularly annoying little fly that comes in the fall—the pest of house-painters and of housekeepers. . It clings to the clothes of the laundry, to the draperies of the open windows, to upholstery, and 67- erything which it can seek, though _ it does not 'often venture far indoors It. is an excellent plan at this time to get all the‘stoves' and heating apparatus of the house In perfect order if they have not been put away in perfect order in the spring. Where the family are wise enough to have open fire places, these will give all the heat ne- cessary for fall weather, and the heater need not be started until the -winter snows have fairly arrived. An open fire of wood, kindled morning and evening, at this time of year will do more good to chase away malaria than all the medicines which physicians can pre- scribe. There is always some damp- ness lurking about the house at this season, imperceptible to a. person in health, but keenly felt by the sensitive rheumatic and equally injurious to all, whether they are sensible of it or not. It is just this dampness, laden as it often is with the seeds of malaria, that the open fire dissipates as it fills the house with the atmosphere of glad- ness and of health. At this season it is a good plan to examine the furnace-heater thoroughly, whether it has been cleaned in the spring or not. The cold-air box is not infrequently the resort of rats, and. even birds have been found imprisoned in it. The danger of any impurity in the. cold air box or of anything in the vicinity of the opening of the cold air box, like the Opening of a cesspool, can- not be too strongly pictured. It is es- sential that the supply of air which is to be heated and sent up through the rooms of the household should be as pure as possible. Hence the cold air which is drawn into the cold air box must above all be pure. Some stove- men, who have no conscience in their work, open their cold air box some- times in the cellar or in the kitchen hall, or, if the cold air box opens out- doors, the garbage pail, or some other nuisance may be in close proximity to it, and continually supplying the house with impure instead of pure air. The. warm days of Indian summer, which usually come after we have had at least one severe frost sufficient to puri- fy the atmosphere of flies and other in- sect pests, are the ideal days for the fall housecleaning. This is the proper time to remove summer mattings and put down winter carpets, and to re- place the light draperies of summer with the heavier hangings of winter. The last traces of the flies may be re- moved at this time with no chance of their returning in full force as soon as the cleaning is done, and the house will seem much neater and fresher all winter for the slight delay. There is one part of the fall cleaning, however, which must not be delayed, and that is the cleaning of the dooryard and vicin‘ ity. If this is carefully attended to, the dead leaves and dead stalks of veg- etation being swept up and made into. a bonfire, or added to the compost heap, there will be fewer flies and less danger from malaria. The necessity for doing this early, as soon as the leaves begin to fall, and continuing the work as long as they continue to fall, cannot be insisted upon too strongly. The sewerage and drainage, the gar- bage pail and all sources of contamina- tion must be closely looked to during the month of September and through- out all the warm days of fall. Cop- peras and other disinfectants, and the best of disinfectants of all, the scrub- bing-brush andsoap, must be freely used—N. Y. Tribune. A BIG FISH FRY. How the Greek Indians Made Their Im- mense Catch at Rock Ford. The biggest fish fry on record in the Creek nation, 01',"pe1‘haps, the Indian territory, came off at Rock ford, on the north fork of the Canadian river, two miles east of Eufaula. ~About. two thousand pounds of fish were caught and about five hundred Creeks from all parts of the nation took part in the grand fish festival. Over one thousand five hundred bundles of “devil’s shoe. string” were used by them to vitiate the water preparatory to catching the fish. > This mode of fishing is practiced a great deal by the» Indians and is the best way in the world to catch lots of fish. The way they do this is simple. The day is agreed upon by all the In- dians to meet at a. certain place at the ‘ river and everyone that wants any of the fish is required to bring with him fifteen bundles of “devil’s shoestring”. On the day set all meet and select mar- shals to conduct the affair. It is their duty to collect all the fishing gigs, spears, etc, and enroll the names of all who are entitled to take part. Just about daybreak the next day the pounded shoestring is put in sacks and put in the water the entire width of the river. It soon makes all the fish in the stream so drunk that they can easily be picked up out of the shal- low water or gigged or killed in the deep water. The command is given to go in and get them, and they are brought to the banks by the boat-load, many Weighing as much as eighty and _. one hundred pounds. The frying pro- cess is then commenced by the women _, and a general feast is bad. The shee- ' String poisons the water forffive‘mlles: below where it is put ire-Fort Worth Gazette. ’. .
