Corrupt Tammany.
If the anti-Tammany democracy of
Now York city continues to grow as it
has grown for the past three months,
there will be but little left of the or-
ganiz- tlon which now controls political
matters in the big city of Cr .tham. At
a meeting held on Monday evening, in
the second assembly distrim, some in-
ert-sting trut’hs Were told by men who
certainly knew what they Were talking
about. fix-Senator George F. Lang-
bein made plain the methods by which
Tammany raised its revenue. He de-
clared that in 1891 the Tammany lead-
ers collected over iour millions of dol-
lars and Spent less lhan half that amount
in the elections; the enormous balance
having unquestionably been diVidcd
among those who pulled the wires. Ex-
Sneriff James O’Brien said that Tweed
and Connolly were infinitely more hon-
est than Croker and Divver, because
under the res ime of the two first-named
the poor were never squeezed, nor did
a policeman have to pav $300 to get on
the force. Divver, asserted the ex-
shci-iff, had put the honest voters of the
second district on a par with the tramps
.w'nom he gathered from all over the
country, coloniZed in the lodging
houses, and took to the polls on elec-
tion day to do his bidding. " Uivver,"
5. id Mi. O’Brien, “is a scoundrel who
deserws the stripes Which are now be-
ing.r Worn by some of his followers.”
When members of Tammany, or men
who once were members, express them-
selves after that fashion, it would seem
impossible for decent men to uphold
toe discredited organization. It Will
be a great day for New York city and
an oceasion for national rejoicing when
Tammany and all other forms of ring
rule aie swept out of existence. ,
O
_ Good Roads.
While the crank Coxey is making
absurd yet serious effort to bring about
the construction of good roads by the
general goVernment, and while the im-
portant subject of highway improve-
ment is unucr much too deliberate con-
sideration in many localities, Some of
the people in New Jersey have been up-
and doing and will soon accomplish
about all that the most enthusiastic be-
liever in road reform could desire.
Such legislation as the wide-awoke
J erseymen needed was enacted as soon
as it was asked for, and the results
have been wonderfully beneficial.
The work has been and is being done
under 'the Supervision of the county
authorities and already four counties
have made great progress toward the
DOSSceblon of a complete system 'of
firstclass roads. Singularly enough,
the Counties in which the least pro-
gress has been made are those in which
the farmers are ina majority. It would
be but natural to suppose that the
agricultural element of the population
Would be most anxious to have .tne
highways in their immediate vicinity
so improved that heavy loads could
easily be transported to and from mar-
ket. So well has the Jersey system
worked that it would pay the farmers
of Connecticut to investigate the meth-
ods being operated in the country of
the “sand Spaniards” and put the in-
formation to local use. With good
roads leading to the centers of con-
sumption, agriculture would be much
more profitable than it is now. Farm-
ers are all willing to admit this, but
not one in a hundred deems it his duty
to become personally active in agita-
tion of the subject. Organization of
practically all the people interested is
the only way out. -

Captain Frank Stevens Rescues a
' Sloop'wlth all on Board.
Safely Towed into \Vllson Point
by the Kate C. Stevens.
Just before dark Tuesday ' night,
when the moaning wind gave indica-
‘tions, of an approaching storm, the
sloop Eva, Captain Collins, of New
York, bound for Essex With a load
of merchandise, put into the harbor
and anchored 01f Tavern Island. She
safely rode the storm that broke early
‘Wednesday morning, but as the gale
increased in'fury 'she began to drift
w'estWard towards the dangerous reef
at the end of Smith Island. Every-
thing possible was done by Captain
Collins and his crew to hold her With
the anchors, but the increasing storm
80011 carried the sloop beyond Bell Is.
land Point.
Finding that the vessel was beyond
their control Captain Collins hoisted a
flag of distress which was plainly seen
by the residents of Bell Island, but as
there were no boats at this point able
to cope with the bowling cyclone noth-
ing could be done by those on shore.
By this time the Eva had been carried
by the Wind and tide beyond the clan--
gerous reef and out into the Sound.
As the sloop rapidly drifted along,
her anchors hav1ng no more effect than
if they had not been dropped, she was
sighted by Captain Frank Stevens
when off the mouth of FiVe Mile River
harbor. Despite the wind, snow and
tremendous surf Captain Stevens quick-
ly got the oyster steamer Kate C. Stev-
ens headed for the Eva, and although
it was fast growing dark he Soon reached
the distressed chsel and got a line
abOard and made fist. ‘ .
The two boats had reached a pom’t
about a mile and half below Wilson
Point... but nothing daunted Captain
Stevens headed for that harbor.
The wind was blowmg a gale and the
flying snow cut the faces of the hardy
men like a wniplash, while the clouds
of sleet, mingled with flying flecks of
foam fairly filled the air and made any
extended view of the vessels and storm
swept sound almost impossible, but the
anxious watchers on Boll Island were
won rewarded by seeing the Stevens
and Eva slowly but surely making for
\VlleOll Point.
‘ The wind, snow and tremendous surf
made their progress slow, but after
an hour’s hard work the Eva Was Safely
secured to the Wilson Point dock and
Captain Collins and his men were once
were s £6
The pronpt action and brave deed of
Captain Stevens is deservmg of great
praise. for had he not gone to the res—
cue of the Bll'Op nothing could have
saved th- Caitiin and his men from
destruction and a waterygrave.

April Bllzzard.
The wind which raged all during
Wednesdav was a combination of two
storms. One came from the Lake re-
gion and the other ofi‘ the Atlantic near
Cape Hatteras. They joined forces in
New Jersey and moved towards the
northeast The gale reached this city
about4 o’clock a. m., and soon it was
blowing thirty-six miles an hour. That
velocity was maintained all day, while
the thermometer remained about sta-
tionary at thirty» two degrees.
Thick. blinding snow came with the
wind. Down it Came, great masses of
it, almost completely saturated With
water. It was so wet it clung wherever
it landed, however small might be the
surface.
.l‘he Southern New England tele-
phone evstem was badly damaged and
the wires of the telegraph and electric
light companies were more or less dam-
aged. The storm had all of the char-
acteristics of the memorable blizzard
of March 1888. The street railway ser-
vice, (lei-plte the severity of the storm,
was excellent. There was an unusually
high tide, the piers being at one time
inundated. '

- Obituary. .-
WILLIAM GLASSE. ‘
William Glasse died last night at his
residence on West avenue, after a short
illness, of pneumonia.
Mr. Glasse was born in England, and
came to this country about twenty years
ago. He was for several years in the
employ of Hiram Siblev, at Rochester,
N.Y., and relaied some interesting an-
ecdotes about that eccentric millionaire.
He had been superintendent of the
Mathews estate, “ Elmenworth.” for
about twelve years, residing at first in
the house on Butler street, but for the
last ten years had occupied “the lodge.”
Mr. Glaese was an expert in the various
lines of gardening and hot-house work,
being remarkably successful in the cul-
ture of grapes and fruits. Bis health
had been poor since he received a se-
vere injury from a fall on the ice two
winter’s ago, and he had looked for-
ward, with fond antic'ipations, to .a visit
to old England. where he had made
plans to go, with Mrs. Glasse, next
month. Mr. Glasee was a loving hus-
band, a kind neighbor and friend, and
his death will be deeply regretted. He
had been a member of Grace church
since the organization of the parish.
He was 65 years of age.
The funeral will be attended from
Grace church, Saturday afternoon.
BIBS. MARY E. LOCKWCOD.
The funeral of Mrs. Mary E. Brown~
Lockwood, widow of the late Charles
Lockwood, and who died in VVater-
bury, on Sunday last, twenty-four
years alter the death of her husband,
was held from the home of her eon
Charles S Lockwood, on East avenue,
V‘fednesday aflcrnoon, Rev. T. K. No-
ble officiating.
The deceased was born September 4.
1804, at Huntington, N. Y., her father,
Dr. Brown, being a prominent physi-
cian in that part of Long Island.
When 8 years old she removed to New
York city, where she grew to woman:
hood and became the wife of Charles
Lockwood. After ‘hree children had
been born to them. Mr. and Mrs Lock-
wood removed to Norwalk. Mr Lock-
Wood became the leading merchant
tailor here and an active member (and
afterwaid a deacon) of the Congrega-
tional church. When Dr. Anderson,
of Waterbury, was pastor of the Con-
gregational church, Mr. LockWood was
its senior deacon, and his wife entered
heartily with him into all church dut-
ice. The marriage of their daughter
Sarah, in 1854, to Asa C. Peck, estab-
lished a strong tie connecting them
with Waterbury, and after the death
of her husband, and, some years later,
of her elder daughter, Mrs. LockWood
removed to Waterbury, and became a
member of Mr. Peck’s family. At the
time of her death she had been a resi-
dent of Waterbury for .0 or 12 years,
and had endeared hereolf to a large
circle of friends in her own and other
churches.
As indicated by her great age, Mrs;
Lockwood was a person of strong con-
stitution, and her mental and moral
characteristics were in keeping with
her physical tenacity and vigor.
Sessed of very positive traits, she was
at the same time a most affectionate
and loyal soul. She was filled with the
old-fashioned serious piety of the past,
and was also fond of life and all its
innocent pleasures. She took delight
in the natural world—the beauty of
garden and field —and a yet greater de-
light in the society of good men and
Women. Her heartiness of manner
her loving words, her manifestations of
fidelity to the old faith and to old
friends, will long be remembered by
those who from time to time were
brought into fellowship with her. Her
illness although brief was severe, but
the struggle was ended several hours
before the coming of death.
Of her eight children. three sons and
one daughter survive her. The sons
are Charles S. Lockwood of Norwalk,
Franklin T. Lockwood of New York
and Horace El. Lockwood of Washing-
ton, D. C., whom wife, the accom-
plished daughter of the Rev. Dr. Boys-
ton, died on the 29th ultimo. Her liv-
ing great-grandchildren number eight.

Of Interest To Dog Owners.
Some amendments to the dog law
were made by the last General Assem-
bley. One of them reads as follows:
‘,Any person owning or having the
custody of any dog’ accustomed to go
out on any highway or common and
growl, snap or bite, or otherwxse annoy
any person or horses lawfully using
such highway or common, shall be fined
not more than $7 or be imprisoned not
more than 10 days, or both, provided
that written notice of any grand juror,
justice of the peace, or prosecuting at-
torney of the town where said dogs are
owned or kept, has been previously
giVen to said owner or keeper.”
Another section raises the license fee
for unspaved female dogs from $6.15 to
$10.15 For male dogs and spayed fe-
males the rate remains $1.15. Any per-
son who knowingly registers as a spayed
dog an uuspayed female dog shall be
fined not more than $7 or imprisoned
not/more than 30 days or both.

Was it a Bomb?
Thursday morning a member of the
Honnecker family found a. glass testing
tube under a back porch at his home
On Wall street. Thinking it was a dyn-
amite bomb or some other explosive
missile, he handled it very gingerly,
and placing it in a pitcher of cold
water, notified Chief Bradley, who was
advised to take it to a chemist. He
acted on the advice and Druggist Vogel
analyzed a portion of the contents and
gave it as his opinion that the fluid,
which was of a wine color, was not an
explosive. Honnecker, it is under-
stood, was not satisfied, and will send
it to a. New York chemist if he can get
anyone to carry it down for him.

The Washington Express Runs
Into ’a Freight.
A Conductor and Several Brake-
men Injured and Two Cars
Burned.
During the blinding snow storm the
Washington express which left South
Norwalk for New York at 1:13 this
morning crashed into the rear of a
freight train at Port Chester.
In the collision five freight cars were
derailed and piled in a heap alongeide
of the track. A stove in the “caboose"
seen creeping through the sides of the
wrecked car. An alarm of fire was
partment quickly-responded and extin-
guished the flames before more than
the caboose and one freight car had
been consumed. _
Conductor Jack St. Clair of .the
freight had his hip broken and it is
feared is internally injured. Abraha-
man on the freight, who lives in New
Haven, had one ear nearly severed and
his face and head badly cut. The fire-
man on the Washington express was
badly hurt and several more of the
brakemen on the freight were cut and
bruised. ’
The injured men were removed to
the Port Chester hospital where their
injuries were dressed and they sent
home. . _
It is reported that the accident was
caused by the operator in the tower at
East Port Chester running the express
in on the same track with .the freight.
It is also said that the engineer of the
express discovered that he was uDl-‘n
the wrong track and made desperate
efforts to stop his train fromcolliding
with the freight, but that owuig to the
ice and snow he was unable to do so.
As the curse between here and P0":-
Chester are down it is impossible lo
obtain full particulars.

schooner. The mortar wasrun' out and a
line- shot to the vessel, but it failed to

that the schobner was pounding to pieces
rapidly on the beach. ' " ' ' '

the scene, two more attempts \vere made
to reach the imperiled men aboard the
schooner. - "r ’ -

rection, but, as before, failed to reach her.
At that time an observer stationed on
shore reported that he could see “ the
schooner going to pieces, and that none of
the crew had been ,taken off. ~- --‘I ' _.
The wind was then ‘blowing at the rate
of 70 miles an hour, and the rain was com.

ed schooner Kate Markee came ashore at
the outer bar, just opposite the Highland
Beach railroad station, this morning, and
is a total wreck. The vesSel has gone all
to pieces, and the supposition is that the _ _
men, were .
crew, consisting of about eight
all lost.
The vesselstruck about a quarter of a '
mile from the shore, and the captains of
life saving stations N 05. .2 and 3 were un‘
able to rescue the crew on account of the
very high sea. The'life saver-swore utterly
unable to shoot their lines‘ that distance.
The Markee hailed from Fall" River: '.-_She
was of 479 tons, 142 feet long, 32 feet wide
and-14 feet deep. She-was ' built ‘atBath,
Me, in 1880. Her Owner was‘Johanallcn.
