As Unjust as Ghoulish.
It is pleasing and proper tribute to
the memory of ‘ the late George W.
Childs that in the more than three
thousand five hundred newspapers
known to have; commented upon the
life and works of the dead journalist,
there was but one sneering remark—a
single discordant note. From all parts
of the world came the language of
grief—Great Britain, France, Germany,
Italy, Austria, Russia—in fact all the
principal nation of the earth were rep-
resented in the chorus of lamentation.
But the Steubenville Gazette, of Steu-
benville. Ohio, achieved notoriety by
publishing one of the meanest'and most
unfair criticisms that ever appeared in
the public press. It said : “ There are
thousands of destitute people in Phila-
delphia, and yet he (Childs) died with
$18,000,000 and with the reputation of
a philanthropist. Didn’t George W.
play considerable of a confidence game
in order to make a'pile of money out
of a poor paper ‘2” The paper has good
reason for being ashamed of itself.

Hie Record Follows Him.
With the unearned $500 of the tax-
payers money, obtained by a “stand
and deliver" demand upon the Select-
menstowed awayin his pocket, the
“Ruflian of the Connecticut Press,”
not satisfied with his successful effort
in brow-beating our town ofilcials, this
morning makes a gentlemanl'g explan-
ation of why he was entitled to the
money paid him against the wishes of
the people. His elephantine intellect,
however, could not be turned from its
usual channel, and again he staggered
under the weight of his own egotistical
self-importance. Instead of making a
manly statement of his side of the case,
and explaining why he thought he was
entitled to $500 of the people’s money,
he publishes nearly a column of idiotic
drivel. He finally branches off to al-
tack,,in his malignant style, the Board
of school Visitors, because, as he says,
they decided that he was not qualified
to be a tellcher. Here is where he is
wrong. It was not the Board of School
Visitors that decided he was not quali-
fied to teach. It was public opinion
that caused his rejection, superinduced,
no} doubt, by his former odorous rec-
ord as a school teacher, whichhas fol-
lowed him to Norwalk. '

Should Be Wlpod Out.
Camden, N. J., oomes to the front
with a striking illustration of the evils
produced by cheap and trashy liter-
ature. Inspired by the wild Western
stories printed in publications that
pander to a certain class of readers,_a
party of small boys seized one of their
number, bound him to a stake, and set
fire to a bunch of fagota that had been
placed‘at his feet. .Undoubtedly it was
the intention to call a halt before the
youngster was injured, but there was a
miscarriage in the arrangements, and
before the boy was rescued from his
perilous position he wasso badly burned »
that his life was despaired of.
The correspondents who reported
this case any that all of the boys eu-
gaged in this bold and dangerous piece
of work will be arrested and prosecuted.
Possibly it is proper that the boys
should be punished in some suitable
manner, but it is rather hard to deter-
mine ae‘to the proper means for dealing
with such culprits. Boys at that age
ought to be able to determine between
right and wrong, but when they are
inspired by wild and improbable stories
of Indian life, and allow their imagin-
ationvto lead them to the commission
of such acts, it would seem that the
administrationmf punishment should
not be confined to them. V
It may be impracticable to go be-
yond the Camden offenders and punish
the publishers of the literature that is
really responsible for the outrage, but
it isquite certain that there are;.means
forlgtlie; supprgssi‘on .of all books and
newspapersfthateorrupt the minds of
the youth and tend to urge them to
recklessness of a romantic nature.
Trashy literature should be speedily
wiped out. ' ~ ' ' ‘

A'dispatch from New York to the ef—-
feet that Rev. Dr. Paxton married Con.
gressman Breckinridge to his present
wife’several months prior-1 to his public
avowal to Mrs. Blackburn and Major
of Police Moore of his intention to
marry Miss Pollard, received here
while the latter was narrating her
wrongs on the witness stand yesterday,
was Washington’s great sensation of
the day, as it legally nullifies his con-
tract of marriage to that injured lady.
Owing to Senator Manderson’s ab-
sence in Philadelphia. yesterday,. the
Patent Ofiice Lithographic contract in-

Senator Dawes, of Massachusetts was
taken' ill in the street yesterday‘nnd
had to be carried to his hotel. ,, Alarm-
ing reports spread through the city as
to his condition. It was found, how-
ever, that he had only an attack of in-
digestion. Mr. and Mrs. Dawes are on
their way to Oklahoma Territory,where
they will meet other members of the
Indian Commission, of which he is
president, appointed to confer with the
five civilized tribes.
The final chapter in one of the most
dramatic incidents of the late war
closed yesterday morning at 5 O’clock,
when Lieut. Frank Edwin Brownell
died at his residence, 1301 K street,
after an illness of three weeks.
It was on the morning of the 24th of
May, 1861, that Co]. Ellsworth, accom-
panied by then Corp. Brownell and a
few others, passed down King street,
Alexandria. When—the party were op-
posite the Marshall House, Col. Ells-
Confederate flag floating above the ho-
tel. Hc entered the house and de—
manded that it be lowered, and upon
being refused ivent up to the roof and
lowered it himself. On the way back
Jackson, with a double-barreled shot-
gun, stepped to the foot of the stairs,
and mistaking Brownell for Ellsworth,
fired at him. The charge struck Ells-
worth, however, and he fell. Brownell
thereupon shot Jackson. He was born
in Troy, N. Y., July 13, 1840.
The President has signed the East
River Bridge bill.
F. J. Banks and wife of Bridgeport

A resolution was offered in the Sen-
ate yesterday by Mr. Gallinger, and
laid over temporarily, calling on the
Secretaries of the Treasury and In.
terlor for the names of all clerks ap-
pointed, promoted, reduced, or dis-
missed in their respective departments
since March 4, 1893, with the state to
whicheach is credited.
The Pension Office has just given out
the many clerical changes made in that
bureau since the advent of the present
administration. E. A. Ripley of Con-
necticut, has been reduced from a spec-
ial examiner at $1,300 to 2nd class clerk
at $1,000. Thomas Mitchell and Isaac
N. Prior Of Connecticut, from $1,200
to 81,000. From Medical Examiner at
$1,800 to clerk at 81,400, Dr. Ellery 0.
Clark. The charge is that these reduc-
tions have been made for political rea-
every instance being conferred on those
supposed to have supported the admin-
istration and in violation of Civil Ser-
vice law.

The Hawiey Case.
The evidence in the trial of Florence
Hawley was all in Friday and the court
took a recess until— Monday morning at
10 o’clock, when the arguments Will
commence. Attorney Carter Will then
open for the state and speak one hour.
He will be followed by Attorney E. F.
Hall for the defendant. In the after-
noon Attorney Chamberlain Wlll closc
fir the defense, and the State’s Attor-
ney, Fessenden, will sum up for the
p fosec11tion. It is not expected that
Judge Terrence will charge the jury
until Tuesday morning.
The evidence taken Fridaywas all
for the defense, and the only Witness of
importance was Mrs. Hawley herself.
her story wassubstantialiy the same as
told at the first trial. She shows the
same cool self possession, and defied
the most skilfuleffortsto break down
her statements. _
It ,is the general belief on all Sides
that there will be another disagreement
of the jury.

“The Blood is the Life.”
Runs the old saying, and everything
that ever makes part of any organ of
thebody must reach its place therem
through the blood. Therefore, if the
blood is purified and kept in good con-
dition by the use of Hood’s Sarsapar-
illa, it necessarily follows that the hen
cfit of the. medicine is imparted to
every organ of the body. Can any
thing be simpler than the method by
which this excellent medicine gives
good health to all who willjtry it fully
and patiently ? ‘

May Now be Married.
It was reported Friday, says the
Bridgeport Farmer, that the marriage
of Miss Mabel Earle to Timothy H.
Porter was to be solemnized in Great
Barrington either Friday or Saturday.
Miss Earle left for Great Barrington
Wednesday afternoon and was accom-
panied to the depot by Mr. Porter.
0. T. Earle, her father, also left for
Great Barrington Friday morning.

Addition is subtraction. When the school

The School Visitors never added the
sums expended. It was done by the
clerk of the Board of Selectmen. But

when they—run counter to his wishes.

Judge Shumway had one of the big-
gest short calendar dockcts to dipose
of in the history of the superior court,
civil side, «when that ball of justice
opened in Bridgeport on Friday. After
several motins had been made and dis-
posed ot' the divorces were taken up.
There were five on the docket and four
of the couple whose marriages were
failures were separated according to
law. ‘
Marietta Blaine of Drinbury was the
first to petition the court. She asked
to be allowed to resume her maiden
name which she exchanged for that of
James E. Blaine’s just nineteen years
ago. She also asked for the custody of
one minor child. The court said yes
after hearing that James was habitually
intemperate. »
Lewls Butler had his petition grant-
ed. He only married Isabelle Butler
two years ago on Jan. 1. The grounds
were infidelity. Isabella commenced
the year well but she soon got tired of
home. The couple belonged in Bridge-
porh
Mary Selleck of New Canaan who
wanted to have a chance to marry again
because J ohu W. Selleck had deserted
her. They were married in May 1886.
Judge Shumway said yes.
Almira M. White of Stamford se—
cured a divorce from John E. White of
Greenwich on the grounds of intoler-
able cruclty. They were made one in
Bridgeport a year and three months
ago; it was long enough for the lady,
however, and his honor thought 30.100.
Mortuary Record.
The State Board of Health reports
that there were 1,060 deaths in the state
during the month. This was 305 less

the average number of death in Feb-
ruary for the five years preceding the
present. Seventeen towns reported no
deaths.
The total number Of deaths in NO):-
walk was 26, representing an annual
death rate of 15.0 per 1,000. Twelve

years of age. The causes of death
were diphtheria, 2; consumption, 4;
pneumonia, 2; bronchitis, 4; nervous
diseases, 2; accidental, 3; all other dis-
eases, 0; still births, 1.
The Secretary of the board is in fre-
quent receipt of letters asking if when
a doctor removes to another town it is
necessary that he should be registered
in the town to which he has removed.
The answer is “NO.” 'Once registered
he is authorized to practice in any part
of the state.
