"Ifc that is without sin among you,
let him/first cast a stone.”

0. E. Raymond, son of W. R. Ray-
mond of this city is ill with typhoid
fever at his home in Bridgeport.

Miss Hettie Millard of this city, was
present last night at the third anniver-
sary of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs.
Joseph Stagg, of Bridgeport.

Josephine Dwyer of East Norwalk,
was fined 65 and costs by Justice Bar-
rett this morning, for being intoxicated
on the depot platform yesterday.

Mrs. Catharine Donnelly, of Cedar
street, will be sent to the asylum for
the insane at Middletown, provided
there is room for another patient at
that institution.

Col. Frost and Lient. Col. Crowe
were in Bridgeport last night at the
annual muster, inspection and review
of the city battalion by Brigadier Gen-
eral Havens.

The Claflin Piano 00., who have an
exhibition of their pianos at the City
Hotel has loaned one of their hand-
some pianos to the Baptist church to
be used at their sale and entertainment,
which begins to-night.‘

Frank and Joseph Evan, two Huns,
were each fined $2 and costs. for a
breach of the peace, by Justice Barrett,
yesterday afternoon, and the cases of
Frank Kery and Stephen Kenkus, are
rested on the same charge, wrre cou'
tinued until this afternoon.

The Stamford Advocate complains
that after the game between the Mer-
rill’s and the S. N. A. C. elevens at
East Norwalk on Saturday last, as Les-
lie Toms, one of the Merrill team, was
leaving the field, some one in the
crowd, which was a very rough one,
threw a stone, striking Toms on the
back of the neck.

At a council meeting last night Coun-
cilman Fox presided, all the members
being present excepting E. F. Knapp.
The Mayor’sresignation was read and
accepted. The fire committee reported
in favor of a fire department similar to
that of Stamford, but somewhat modi-
fied. The purchase of a new truck
was recommended, but the committee
thought a steam fire engine was not
needed at present. Plans were submit-
ted for a city building to cost about
$6,000 and those of. Architect Knapp
were recommended. The new building
is to contain the fire department,
council rooms and lock-up. The re-
port and resolutions were adopt-
ed and a city meeting to approve of
them was called for Tuesday evening,
November 28th. A’payment of $1,000
to A. Bach, on his contract, was order-
ed after which the council adjourned
until December.

Shortly after 5 o’clock last evening
George Miller. the young man who not
long ago ran away with a horse and
carriage owned by Senator John H.
Ferris, jumped into the phzoton of
Thomas I. Raymond and drove off:
Mr. Raymond soon discovered his loss
and reported the matter to Chief Voll-
mer. The Chief, having seen Miller
on the streets intoxicated but a few
hours prior to the loss of the horse, at
once surmised that it was he that had
taken Mr. Raymond’s turnout. Pro-
curing a horse at Solman’s stable, the
Chief and Officer Gladstone started for
Ridgefi- 1d, the home of young Miller,
where they found the horse at the barn
of Charles A. Raymond near Lewis-
boro. Miller was found at his home
and together with the horse and pha-
ton was brought to this city and locked
up. After young Miller had reached
his home between Lewisboro and Ridge-
field he turned the horse around and
let him go and he was shortly after-
ward picked up by Mr. C. A. Raymond
and placed in his barn. Sherifi' White,
who had been telephoned, also located
the horse but Chief Vollmer had both
horse and prisoner when the Sheriff re-
turned to Raymond’s barn. This morn-
ing Mr. T. I. Raymond refused to pros-
ecute, preferring to have young Miller
returned to the Keeley institute, where
his friends had previously placed him,
in hopes that his mania for drink might
be overcome.

Queer Dueling Weapons.

In 1887 a curious duel was fought in
Paris, when two rivals met at the house
of their divinity. After a. few high
words an immediate encounter was de-
cided upon, and neither swords nor
pistols being at hand two ornamental
crossbows Were taken from the walls
of the drawing-room. An adjourn-
ment into the garden was made, and
in a few minutes one of the lovers
was pierced in the arm by his op-

ponent’s shaft. In 13:91 astill more

singular duel was fought, the weapons
in this case being umbrellas. After a
furious struggle, one of the combatants
fell, run through the eye, and soon
sfterward died. '

}. OFF THE TRAIL. -
Ghastly Work of a Buzzard in the Moun-
_ . pains of Nevada. g =7
Byv‘and by we came out on a. bluff
from which we could look’ down into
the long- and narrow valley. Two miles
to the north affd on the far side of the
valley We caught sight of three or, four
white-topped wagons, While a number
of horses were grazing on the rich
pasturage. - - .
' Dayton’s wagon train had got off the

 

mountains of Nevada—eight wagons
and thirty-seven men, ' women and
children. It was September when they
Were last seen on the trail; it was now
June of the following year. Every
valley and pass in the eastern portion
of the wild territory was being inspect:
ed by men sent out,to solve the mystery.
One day they had turned off the trail
to find a shorter and better route. N 0
word had come from them since. It had
been a. terribly hard Winter, but there

them alive.

We made our way along the bluffs
until a spot was found where we could
descend into the valley. We were
hardly down before the horses came
running up, and their every actior.
showed that they were overjoyed at
sight of human beings. They were hol-
low eyed and poor in flesh, as the grass
had only just begun to furnish pastur-
age. lVe fired off our guns as a signal
to the people in camp that help was at
hand, but no one appeared in sight.
We had looked for the smoke of camp-
fires from the bluff, but not the faint-
est trace could be seen. As we ad-
vanced upon the wagons the horses
kept us company, following at our heels
like dogs, and their action prepared us
in a measure for what was to come.

When within half a mile of the camp
we could count the wagons—eight.
The covers still remained, but faded
and mildewed. Each was backed up
against the steep hillside and the
fronts of all were closed. In front of
the wagons were four blackened spots
on which the grass would not grow.
These had been the campfires of the
emigrants. At a distance of two hun-
dred feet we halted and raised a cheer
and two of the men discharged their
rifles, but not a sound came from the
grim-looking wagons. We stood there
for three or four minutes, hoping that
some one would appear, and yet feeling
that we had come too late, when the
old hunter who had acted as our guide

“If thar’s anythin’ livin’ in this camp
it’s too sick and feeble to move!
Some of you had better take alool:
into the wagons.”

For a time everyone hung back.
There were the horses and wagons,
but where were the thirty-seven men.
women and children? Between the
wagons, which were about ten feet
apart, the grass was thickest and
greenest, but the horses had not fed
there. As ave started forward after
our last halt they did not follow us,
‘but stood with heads up and ears
pointed forward and seemed inclined
to run away.

“It’s got to be dOnc,” said the lieu~
tenant, “but I hope'they all, got away.
Now, then, each man to a wagon. You
needn’t stop at the covers, but take
your knives and cut the fronts away
and let the sunlight and daylight in."

I sprang up on the front of a wagon __
and cut and tore the cover away, but
did not look in. A cry from the man on
my left warned me of the sight I should

and together we went up the valley
about twelve rods to the spot where

wood. Lying on his face on the ground,
with arms still clasped about a bundle
of limbs, was a dead man. Sitting
down, with his back to a small tree
and hands over his face, was another,
while an ax lay beside him. 'There was
no odor, no ghastliness. As you looked
at them they seemed to be sleeping.
“Thar’s another—and another!” said
the guide as he pointed up the valley.
“It’s easy to see how it came about.”
In the wagons they found twenty~
eight dead. The four we found made
thirty-two. Five of the men had left
the camp, perhaps in mid-winter, and
had started up or down the valley in
hopes to find a way out or bring relief.
When they perished no man has ever
found out. It may have been on the
very day they started that the blizzard
came. The horses must have found a
sheltered nook somewhere and huddled
together. A gale had screamed up and
down that valley two or three days, its
breath as cruel as the edge of a. knife,
and bringing with it such a fall of
snow that it still lay solid as ice in the
shady spots. The men had. made a.
brave effort to keep the fires. going,
but human flesh and blood could not.
stand against an enemy which drove
its frosty breath deep' into flinty rocks
and split them in twain. Some lay
under their blankets—some sat with
bowed heads and arms folded 'across
their breasts. The cold had not tor"
tured them. Death had come as sleep
comes to us at night—quietly and
gratefully. Side by side in one long
trench we laid them and covered them
in, and there they rest to-day, forgot-
ten to the world as if they had never
existed—M. Quad, in Chicago Times.

The Facetious Young Man Turned Down.

He was a very facetious young man,
and he was showing a bright young
woman, upon whom his affections were
lavishing themselves, through a chair
factory that was the principal and
most interesting industry of the town.
The courteous attendant explained
everything to them, when the facetious
young man, desiring to shew how
facetious he could be when he tried,
pointing to a' cane—bottomed chair,
asked:

“And where do - you get the holes?”

“0, we buy those from the Indians,”
replied the attendant; and he was
much pleased, as the facetious young

man was not, to hear the young woman, I

giggle. .. .
,, “Ah. indeed?” said; the funny man,
superciliously. “Of- what - Indians,
pray?” "i ' '
“Diggers.” replied the attendant, '
