The suicide of Adam Herold at San Francisco,who became despondent over his failure ”to receive the appointment of superintendent of the mint in that city, is another sad instance of the craze for office which seems to possess the American people. Mr. Herold was atone time state treasurer of Califorhia,and might easily have devoted himself to some business interests which would have proved as remunerative and as honorable as the office he sought. But the burning am- bition to continue a political career so controlled his mind as to eventually up— set it and cause his death. It cannot be too greatly deplored that thewish for political prefermentin this country takes the peculiar phase it does, of being the one desire that must be satisfied at all hazards. The Boom in Business. The business boom is slew of devel- opment, but there are symptoms of steadiness in it. While there are ma- terial defects in the Wilson tariff bill ,by which certain industries are likely to be injuriously affected, the proposed legislation does not threaten to be uni~ versally ruinous. The prospect of its passage is becoming so well assured that an element of certainty has been injected into the situation and various branches of manufacture, weary of a long suspense and with accumulating orders, which are of themselves a sign of returning prosperity, in shortly resume operations. Among these may be mentioned the re-opening of the silk mill at Emaus, Pa, with 125'hands; the resumption of the copper extraction works at EliZa- bethport, N. J., with about 500 em- ployee, _ after a suspension of some weeks; the starting Of Denny’s rolling mill at Columbia, Pa, with 500 work- men, aud the firing up of the Keystone Furnace, near Glendon, Pa., which has been idle since last fall. News also comes from Racine, Wis, that the im- mense factory of the J. I. Case 'Ihrash- ing Machine company, which has been closed for five months, will resume February 19 with a force of 600 men, and that the Mitchell & Lewis wagon factory at the same place has opened with 500 employee. Full time has also been resumed in every department of the Demorest sewing 'machine and bicy- cle factory at Williamsport, Pa., and the East Lake glass works at Bridge- ton, N. J.. have also resumed. All these things go to show that the movement of trade is in the right di- rection; that it is not retrograding; that capital is less fearful and money less tightly hoarded. No phenomenal recuperation is looked for or under ex- isting conditions possible, but the glimses of daylight that we see are those of a coming dawn, and the long night is gradually approaching an end. Phoenix Mutual Life. In another column we print the an- nual statement of the Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance company showing im- portant gains in the various depart- ments during the year just passed. The increase in total premiums re- ceived as compared with 1892 was $101,- 357 ; as compared with the year before that the increase was $264,612. There was an increase of $3,132,217 in insur- ance in force. As compared with 1891 the increase was $6,579,098. The total amount in force Jan. 1, 1894, was $33,681,523. The increase in the num- ber of policies last year was 913, the, total number issued being 4,769. In 1891 the number issued was 2,886. In the two years the increase was 1,883. The whole numberof policies now in force is 21,420: The gross assets of the company J an. 1, amounted, to $10,163,- 8561 7. The surplus at, 4 per cent. was 556,208. The disbursements with re gard to policy holders last year aggre- gated $1,073,421. Since the company’s organization in 1851 it has disbursed more than $34,000,000 on account of death losses, matured endowments, di- — I .~...;.. 1.". .. .:..’._.,...'~ vidends to policy holders and surrena dered policies; the assets of the company are first-class. The loans on first mort- gages, amount to $5,497,147. In muni- cipal bonds, railroad stocks, and bonds the company holds $2,089,000. The cost value of the real estate now held by the Phoenix Mutual is 9989.853. The solid and positive gains made by this companyispeak in strongest terms for its able and successful management. The Phoenix in the hands of President John B. Bunce, Vice President John M. Holcomb and Secretary Charles H. Lawrence is making very‘ rapid strides. CO. TERSE TALES OF THE TIMES.

New Road to be Constructed. An important informal meeting of the Tramway company was held at the company’s ofiice in South Norwalk Tuesday evening. A delegation from Five Mile River was present and an enthusiastic meeting held. Mr. Mans- field presented a map showing the pro- posed route to Roton Point and Five Mile River, which does not cross the Danbury and Norwalk Railroad tracks. The proposed layout goes under the bridge at the foot of South Main street and across the meadows to a point near B. Burchard’s ice houses. The plan submitted was approved by all, but as it was laid through the property of Mr. Burchard, Jacob B. Raymond and A. B. Tuthill it was necessary to have those gentlemen approve of the plan, which they promptly did by agreeing to deed' to the town of Norwalk suffi- cient land for a new street from 60 to ’70 feet wide across their several proper- ties. As the opening of a new street would necessitate a town meeting to approve the same about twenty of the tax-pay- ers present signed a petition to the select-men asking that a town meeting be called for that purpose, which will be done.

Mrs. Fred. Baxter and Miss Jessie Lowndes were in the sleigh, the former having the lines in her hand. She is spoken of as being an expert driver, but she lost control of the horse and the sleigh was upset, the riders being dumped out on the side of the street but fortunately escaping iii- jury. The horse ran to Main street, through Wall street to Union Park, then to Franklin avenue, to West ave- nue to the Congregational church where the turnout was stopped. Damages, nominal.

The frosty nights have come again, The coldest of the year; The single man jumps into bed, And pulls his knees up to his ear. By George this thing has got to cease ‘8 ‘-' Before another year. Thrifty newsman John Buxton, called on the GAZETTE Tuesday and made confession that never till now did he realize what a forlorn, cold, frozen and utterly disconsolate being a chronic old bachelor could be in mid-winter. As he has climbed, the past few nights, the borean heights beyond the armory to Buxton Castle on Elm Crest, the piercing winds have cut him to the marrow and whistled through his thin and attenuated branches like a mad blizzard through a tough old and gnarled oak of the forest. Then on seeking his lofty couch, with chills chasing each other like race-horses down his spine, he would step to the windows of his cold eyrie, and. with thumb nail, scrape the frost from the window panes and look abroad over the snow-clad hills of Westport, Wes- ton, Wilton, Redding and New Canaan, until his teeth shattered in their sock- ets. The water view aWay across the sound, was but a still colder waste of snow and ice-bound waters. Then jumping out of his day apparel and double-quicking into his slumber robe, he shoots into bed like a shell out of a Columbiad, to find his virtuous sheets damp with an intenser cold, and with knees to his chin, tries to shiver him- self to sleep.- But it is no use. He thinks of what-“might have been ;”- “with some one to love, some one to ca- ress;” something nice and warm, to cuddle up, to spoon-fashion, on his star- board beam, to thaw him out; but alas! And so the-sufferer passes his nights of agony. He'says Elm Crest may be a paradise in summer, but next winter, it he outlives this, he either weds or goes South. Now here is a pointer for some worthy maiden of un- recorded age and unentangled alliances, or some more eager and courageous, bustling widow, to get the drop on John. In ordinary conditions, he is as shy of a woman as a colt of a trolley car, but as long as this cold snap con- tinues, it will require very little matri- monial: angling skill, on the part of our fair dames, to capture John. And what a model,husband, father and head of the family he would make! Good to $5.00 at 50 cents discount per pair. ladies, don’t let any such guilty old A. H.

White and cream laid is always the best taste. and the only or- namentation admissible in polite socie- ty is the monogram. That must be small and plain. The newest feature of the latest im- ported dresses is the short bOufi'ant hip drapery. This looks like a revival of the regular panniers. Sara Bernhardt is responsible for this new mode, as she has been for many others. Her favor- ite waist is the apparently seamless and dartless one, drawn in folds to a point well below the waist. The pannier fashion is sure to be exclusive, as only a few will find it becoming. - The question Of allowing girls so much freedom is disturbing many mothers, and well it may. It is said by one of the most distinguished ladies who has given this matter attention that the unchaperoned girls are con- spicuous for their ill-breeding and for their want of courtesy—their want of all maidenly shyness or sweet reserve— their masculine aplomb and their in- difference to forms. Everything once considered essentially feminine 18 thrown to the winds, and things which were looked on as style so bad as to in- sure social ostracism are now the cur- rent order of the day. Some women, in order to obtain the reputation of being good housekeepers will put all other ambition out of their lives, and from morning until night will wrestle with first one and then an— other task, pleading “no time” if hus- band or children ask for a few minutes of their society. “What would the house look like,” they argue, “it we were not constantly looking after it?” It would look a good bit more home- like, for one thing, if once in awhile the wife and mother would be found seated cozily before the fire with a book or trying over some new music at the piano, instead of being continually attired in a sweeping cap, improvising unnecessary tasks to keep her on the go in order to prove to the world what a thorough housekeeper she is. + USE DANA’S SARSAPARILLA, IT’S “THE KIND THAT CURES ” _.___._.<*.____._____ Amusements. 1 HOYT’S OPERA HOUSE.

The seas are breaking over the schooner and drenching the men to the skin. They are in a most dangerous plight, and, owing to the rough seas and high winds the life saving crew has not been able to render any assistance asyet. Every effort will be made, however, to save the lives of the men, and if they can retain their hold they may be rescued. The vessel will doubtless be a total loss. . Senator John H. Ferris, one of the owners of the Rowan, received a tele- gram announcing the wreck Tuesday and started for Boston. This morning he telephoned that it was reported at Boston that Capt. C. C. St. John and crew had been rescued, but as he had not gone to the scene of the wreck he could not verify the report. He also stated that it was reported that Captain St. John was severely injured. Later—A telegram just received from Captain S John says that the vessel is a total lo;—s and the crew all saved. __... ...._.. _________ STAlE SHOTS. The estate of ex-State Treasurer Val- entine B.

The inventory was filed in the Pro— bate Court Tuesday by Granville \V. Goodsell and Henry L. Blackman, the appraisers. Gen. Noble was generally supposed to own property to a much larger sum. Mrs. Noble enjoys, however, the use of a large property left in trust by her father, the late Benjamin Brooks, to his heirs. 4- F‘airchild and Snow. John Fairchild “kicked up” consid- erable excitement on Main street. in front Of James M. Creagh’s restaurant, Tuesday night. John is in the employ of Mr. Creagh. In cleaning off the horse railway tracks considerable snow was banked up in front of the restau- rant. John was of the opinion that the company had abused him and armed with a shovel he commenced throwing the snow back on the railway. tracks. Secretary Acton, of the railway com- pany appeared on the scene and or- dered him to stop. John, however, kept on shoveling snow, until finally Ofiicer Morehouse happened along and threatened him with arrest if he did not clean off the snow he had thrown on the tracks. John at first demurred but finally freed the tracks of the snow which he had thrown upon them. The Criminal Court. The criminal court of common pleas convened Tuesday, Judge R.
