Waite, of Colorado, owes most of his bloodthirsty reputatiOn to Mrs. Governor Waite, then we‘must consider the proposition that the wild and, woolly West is cal- culated to develop feminine ability. ' We have already had the spectacle of Mrs. Mary E. Lease, of Kansas, charging about the country and mak- ing things in general resound, while Mr. Mary E. Lease is meekly doing chores in a country post-office, and, during the intervals of his official work , changing diapers on the little Leases. As an isolated incident, says the Wash- ington Post, that might or might not have meant anything, the Lease inci- dent has heretofore been open to analy- sis; but now, in the'light of the Waite incident, the thoughtful observer is moved to ask himself whether there may not be something in the Western atmosphere which fetches out the tougher fiber of the woman and sup- presses, if it does not actually enfeeble, the original supremacy of the man. Of course, there is no way of ascer- taining the exact amount of ruth in the now notorious proposition that Mrs. not Mr. Waite, is resp onsible for the truculcnt and martial tone which has recently distinguished the Gover- nor of Colorado from the common herd of Governors. But the statement has been, circulated. under every cir- cumstance of deliberation and assur- ance, and ‘in the light of the Lease episode it becomes worthy of our notice. " Let us therefore ponder it. Let us weigh the indications in the case. And let us decide, for purposes of future legislation, whether or not the far West is to be delivered over to the women, and the men he trundled to the jejune and exhausted East. + Horse Railroad Meeting. At a meeting of the stockholders of the Norwalk Horse Railroad company held . Monday afternoon, 1750' shares were represented. The agreement pre- sented at the South ’Norwalk council meeting in the evening was passed, and the satne was read and presented to the council by Presidentflill. As the di- rectors of the company are - authorized to make all necessary agreements with the city of South Norwalk it is probable that the amended agreement will be signed and work commenced as soon af- ter the council meeting on Friday night as possible. -..__’___._. Assigned. . At the meeting of the stockholder of the Union Manufacturin company, held at its office on Mon ay, it was voted to make an assignment of all of the property and estate of the company to a trustee for the benefit of all of its creditors. Mr. Alexander Semple being agreeable to all parties present, he was recommended as such trustee. The deeds of the. ropertywill probably be drawn up to- ay by Attorney Hurlbutt.

At the meeting of "the committee ap- pointed by the South Norwalk City Council, to consider and report upon the application of the Norwalk Horse Railroad company to double track their road and equip the same with electrici- ty within the city limits, held at the Council rooms Monday night, Presi- dent E. J. Hill, of the Horse Railroad company, appeared and submitted an application and agreement as passed by the stockholders of the Railroad company at their meeting Monday af- ternoon. The application called for the double tracking of the road from the city line to a point opposite the Congregational church and a single track from there to the depot of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad. The description of the rails and bonding of the same and the over- head trolley wire, together with poles etc., was the same as previously printed in the GAZETTE. The agreement submitted by the Railroad company provides that in case their plans are approved, substantially as submitted, the company holds Itself responsible for and will make good to the city all damage of every kind sus- tained by reason of the electric cur- rent used as motive power, by way of damages to the water pipes of the city, lying or being in the highway, or else- where, iip to the value of the pipes so damaged together with the cost of're- laying the same and replacing the high- way in as good condition as before, provided that in the installation of new pipes, or in changing old ones, the pipes shall not be left needlessly ex- posed to damage from electric currents; also that the city shall allow the Rail- road company, at its own expense, un- der the direction of the city’s Water Commissioners, to make such changes or application, in or to said wat er pipes as may not injure the water service, and as may be shown to be desirable, from time to time by the best electrical experience. The committee adopted the layout, rails, poles etc., but the agreement was modified by striking out that part that limited the responsibility of the com- panyonly “up to the value of the pipes so damaged, together with the cost of relaying the same.”A clause was insert- ed requiring the company to lay a gran- ite block on the out-side and inside _Of each rail, to pave between the inside blocks and between the tracks with cob- ble stones. The blocks on the outside to be laid traverse with the rails and those inside parallel. Another clause was in- serted prohibiting the opening up at one time of more than 500 feet of the street between the city line and the Congregational church and 250 between the church and the Consolidated rail- road depot. The Tramway agreement was made the same as the Horse Railroad with the exception that the granite block outside and inside the rail was omitted and cobble stone paving only between the tracks and two feet out-side re- quired. . If the Horse Railroad company ac- cepts the amended agreement as pre- sented by the committee it will be pre~ sented to the councd Friday night and adopted, when work can at once com- mence. The stockholders of the Tramway company will 'hold a meeting on Thurs- day afternoon and in all probability the agreement will be signed and work on the extension of their tracks to Roton Point commenced at once. ‘->—~——————_— USE DANA’S SABSAPARILLA, IT’S uTHE KIND THAT CURES. ,, ~00.

At Hoyt’s Opera House to-night will be presented the comic opera of “Robin Hood.” Anybody who knows anything of musical or amusement affairs knows that “Robin Hood” is the greatest comic opera success of recent times. It has every element of popularity— abundant comedy, picturesque scenes, attractive costuming, and the most tuneful music ever put into opera com- ique in America. Its songs are sung in every town of the Union, both in pri- vate and public and now, after three seasons of unexampled popularity it is still growing in public favor. Were it not absolutely controlled by Barnabee, Karl and MacDonald, so that no other doubt it would be played by scores of companies all over the country as were “The Mikado” and “Pinafore” when they were new and free to any pro- ducer. But “Robin Hood” is only to be seen-by the Barnabee, Karl and MacDonald forces and its presentation here is, therefore an event. ' uorr’s OPERA HOUSE. Jennie Yeamans, who is to appear at Hoyt’s Opera House, Monday evening, March 20th, in “Jane,” is acknowl- edged by the dramatic profession gen- erally to be the best American come- dienne—an actress whoso versatility is something remarkable, considering her great excellence in each line. Pathos is a particularly strong feature of Miss Yeamans’ ability, and she will give an example of it in thecurtain-raiser which preceeds the performance of “Jane.” - USE DANA’S SARSAPARILLAJT'S “THE KIND THAT CURES." ‘9.

' Carried to the Hospital in the New Ambulance. As the “Gilt Edge” express which leaves New York at 5 o’clock was hear- ing the Whistleville bridge below the South'iNorwalk station Monday even~ ing, a Polish Jew was seen by Mrs. L. R. Bouton, of Ely avenue, to either fall or jump off. The man struck the ground with terrible force and rolled over sev- eral times. He was unable to rise and help was summoned and he was carried into Mr. Bouton’s house. Later in the evening the new ambulance“, driven by HG my Jennings, went to the house and carried the injured man to the Norwalk it was impossible to learn his name. An examination showed that no bones were broken but that he had sustained a bad wrench of one knee. He is re- ported to be quite comfortable to-day. His escape from death was miraculous as the train was running at the :rate' of fifty miles an hour when he fell or jumped. The appearance of the hand- some new ambulance and the ringing of the gong created considerable ex- citement on the street, many mistaking it for the supply wagon of the fire de- partment. 0n the way to Ely avenue the ringing of the gong brought the residents of the different streets to the doors and windows expecting to see a conflagration, but when it was learned that it was the new ambulance going for an injured man expressions of com- mendation for the‘service were heard on all sides. , .- USE DAN A’S SARSAPARILLA, IT’S “THE KIND THAT CURES” The Prosecuting Agent Not in it.
