Only One Coupon.

As a large number of GAZETTE read-
ers have the mistaken idea. that it is
necessary to bring six Coupons of con-
secutive dates before they can obtain a
portfolio of “The World and Its Peo-
ple by Sunlight,” we have concluded to
change the number of coupons to one.

Anyone desiring a portfolio can now
obtain it by presenting one coupon and
ten cents at the business Office of the
GAZETTE.

Eighteen numbers have been issued
and back numbers can be supplied.

 

 

A False Pretence.

The pretence that the men in the
coal‘rcgions who have, for some weeks
past, been engaged in unlawful acts,
violative alike of private and public
rights, have the sympathy of the work-
ing men of the United States, is utter-
ly false. Men who blow Up railroad
bridges, wreck mining plants, seize lo-
comotives and cars, march in armed
mobs from place to place intimidating
and occasionally killing peaceable citio
zens, whose only offense is working for
a living—such men have not the sym-
pathy, and such acts have nbt the ap-
proval of the toiling masses. ,

The story of this strike, which was
most unwisely begun at the worst pos-
sible time, when thousands of willing
hands were idle, is a shameful record
of criminal violence which is approved
by but a small minority of the millions
who work for their living. It is a
record, too, that is not altogether cred.
itable to the constituted authorities of
various localities where mobs of ma-
rauders, armed and supplied with wag-
on lOads of ammunition, have marched
and marauded by day and night, beat-
ing and wounding innocent men, and
leaving a broad path of ruin. The sys-
tem of local government in the United
States does not show at its best when it
is so inefficiently operated that for
weeks at a time communities are “held
up’.’ by lawless combinations. And
when, as is the general rule, these com-
binations are composed of aliens who
cannot speak our language and have
no knowledge of or respect for our
laws, the discredit of the local authori-
ties is still more pronounced.

Working men, farmers, mechanics,
miners, laborers, and others who are
engaged in various occupations—are
largely in the majority in the United
States. Should the time ever come
when the workers should be politically
united against the non-workers, the
latter would have small influence in
the management of affairs. But there
is very little danger of such an array
of class against class, because the hum-
blest toiler has the same voting capaci-
ty as the man of millions. Each indi-
vidual engaged in a coal mine, if he be
a citizen of the UnitedStates, is a
political unit, counting for just as much
as his employer. The man who curries

othc millionaire’s horses can and often
do< s neutralize his employer’s vote.
The ballot-box is a greaterleveler than
even the grave yard, for there are
broad distinctions in the latter, rang—
ing from marble mausoleum to potter’s
field, whilein the former, there is ab-
solute equality. The man who lives by
labor knows all this just as well as the
capitalist. The men who go to Con-
gress and the State Legislatures are far
more the choice of the workers than of
the non-workers. More than any other
land on earth this is the workingman’s
country, and it is a libel on him to as-
scrt‘that his sympathies are with the
marauders in the mining regions. He
may pity their misfortunes—their pov-
erty, their ignorance, even their bru-
tality, and he may wish that they could
earn greater wages, but he has neither
sympathy with nor tolerance for their
methods.
The Game Postponed.

N ot wishing to interfere with the bi-

cycle races the manager of the Norwalk

, Park base ball club has postponed the
opening game, scheduled for Saturday
next, until Thursday, June 21, when
they will meet the strong teamqrom
Bonaventure college.

The new grand stand is nearly com-
pleted and when the opening game is
played the lovers of base ball will find

that the new ball grounds at Norwalk
Park are second to none in the country.

 

Cut Down the Dividends.

At a meeting of the directors of the
Consolidated road held in New York
Saturday it was decided to cut the reg-
ular quarterly dividend downlone-half”
of one per cent, making it -two per
cent. This was necessary, or'o'a'rcut in

- wages or change in train service would
have to be made. '

. SHOT MFICEK

constable vAi-illein Sh'Oti Under- the
Eye at the Saugathck Depot.

His Assailant, a Drunken German.
was Arrested. ‘

 

A serious shooting aflray occurred at
the Saugatuck railway station Saturday
night, in which Allan Allen, a night
watchman and a constable at the Sang-
-atuck station, got into an altercation
with a German named Straus, and was
shot under the left eye. Straus was
loitering about the depot _during the
evening and was under the influence. of
liquor. He was, particularly offensive
to the passengers who were waiting for
their trains and when complaint was
made to Constable Allen the latter
went over to Straus and ordered him
to leave the depot.

Instead of movmg away Straus be-
came very abusive and attempted to
strike the officer. Oflicer Allen took
hold of Straus and shoved him out of
the depot, but as ,he did so. Straus
whipped out a revolver and deliberate-
ly fired at the constable. The ball
struck Allen just under the left eye and
it is thought has lodged in his cheek.
He lost considerable blood but he was
placed on the 8 o’clock train and taken
to New York for treatment.

Straus was arrestgd and locked up
charged with assault with intent to kill.
He seemed to regret what he had done
after being locked up. Straus lives in
Saugatuck and is unmarried. The
shooting caused considerable excite-
ment about the depot at the time.

WASHINGTON.

Patent Commissioner Seymour has
no ambition to abdicate his present less
vexatious and more lucrative pos1tion
as head of the Patent office for even so
glittering a prize as the Governorship
of Connecticut. Much less would he
permit his claims to be in the Way of
that honor going to his friend Mr. E.
C. Benedict of Greenwich, to whom he
is probably wholly indebted for his
present responsible and entirely con-
genial position here in Washington.
Mr. Benedict enjoys the proud distinc-
tion of being to a greater extent than
any other democrat in the country, the
most potential power behind the Presi-
dential throne, and his nomination for
the Connecticut Governorship as so
frequently mooted, would command
the active and powerful aid of the N a-
tional Administration throughout the
state, to a greater degree than any
other candidate the democrats could
put in nomination.

No truer words have been spoken in
the Senate during the tarifi‘ debate than
those so gravely and earnestly uttered
by Senator Sherman Saturday evening
in reply to Senator Vest’s charge that
all business was at a stand-still and la-
bor industries paralyzed, because Con-
gress did not hurry the passage of the
proposed crazy-quilt tariff bill now be-
fore the. Senate. “It is not the ‘delay
in passing the bill,” retorted the Ohio
Senator, “but the fear and dread, on
the part of the intelligent American
people, that it will pass, that causes all
the business stagnation and cessation
of labOr throughout the country.”
Senator Chandler’s pat retort is, that
“it is far better to kill this bill than to
let the bill kill our industries.”

 

 

Frank A. Ferris, one of Norwalk’s
enterprising and successful sons, now
at the head of the great meat curing
establishment of his name in New
York, has been here and this is what
he said to a reporter: “Chicago is the
first market in the world for fine beef,
but Chicago sends the choicest cuts to
New York, .which in turn supplies Bos~
ton, Philadelphia, Baltimore, \Vash-
ington, and the great hotels of Florida.
Out of a steer weighing 1,000 pounds
there is obtained only 180 pounds of
really choice meat, two ribs and two
leins, which are sold to fancy butchers
and hotel men for 18 to 20 cents a
pound, while the rest of the animal is
worth only from 3 to 11 cents. An
average-sized hotel of the first class
takes $1,400 worth of beef a month.
By the time the bone is taken out every
pound of beef that goes on the table in
a swell hostelrie costs 50 cents a pound,
which goes far toward explaining the
legic of the rates charged by such es-
tablishments. ”

Her 80th Birthday,

Mrs. Julia. Betts, widow of the late
Carmi Betts, is celebrating the 80th
anniversary of her birth this afternoon
at the home of her son A. G. Betts,
corner of Main street and North ave-
nue. A large number of relatives and
friends are present, and it is doubtful
if there be one in the happy party any
happier than is the aged Mrs. Betts
who is in remarkably good health, for
one of. her advanced age.

in late years been troubled badly With
rheumatism, which caused him to seek
a home at the Soldiers’ Home.- About
two weeks ago he told his wife _that if
anything should happen to him _he
wanted to be buried in the beautiful
burial plot for the veterans at the Sol-
diers’ Home, and the interment Will

Children’s Day.

Sunday was observed as Children’s
Day at several of the churches in town
The exercises at each were of a very
pleasing character and the edifices were
crowded with delighted audiences.

BAPTIST CHURCH.

The services at the Baptist church
were held in the evening and the church
was filled with 'people. There were
recitations and singing by the members
of the Sunday school and special muSic
by the choir. The pulpit was banked
with daisies, and a. fl‘oral pillow over
the organ bore the words “Feed My
Lambs.” Tables of flowers were dis.
tributed about the chancel and over
the pulpit there was an arch of pink
and white roses and the letters formed
the words “Rejoice in the Lord.” The
floral decorations were beautiful.

METHODIST CHURCH.

Children’s Day was observed at this
church both morning and evening. In
the morning several children were bap-
tized and Pastor Wyatt preached from
the text “Get wisdom, but with all thy
getting get understanding.” The pul-
pit was embellished with large quanti-
ties of daisies and roses, and ferns and
palms graced the altar. The organ was
prettily festooned with daisies. The
choir furnished Specially fine music ac-
companied by the orchestra. In the
evening a Sunday school concert was
held and the recitations and singing
by the children were greatly enjoyed.
A collection was taken up for the bene-
fit of the educational fund. Both of-
the services were largely attended.

CONGBEGATIONAL CHURCH.

The morning service at the Congre-
gational church was devoted to the ob-
servance of Children’s Day. The church
was beautifully decorated with flow-
ers, ferns and palms, daisies predomi-
nating, they being artistically and
effectively arranged about the pulpit
and choir loft. The songs, carols and
anthems which the children rendered
were in keeping with the day, and were
greatly enjoyed by the large congre-
gation present. The remarks by Pas-
tor Noble were also highly appreciated.
A pleasing feature was the baptism of
six infants by Rev. T. K. Noble.

A MYSTERY OF THE SEA.“

 

An Unknown Woman’s Bejeweled _ Body
Found Floating Ofi‘ Staten Island.

QUARANTINE, N. Y., June 11.-—-William
Stanfield, a. Quarantine boatman, while
picking up some driftwood along the;Stat-
on Island shore between theQaura‘ntlno
boarding station and Fort Wadsworth yes-
terday evening, observed an object which
appeared to be a dead body floating down
close to the shore with the ebb tide. On
a close inspection he found it to be a} dead
body of _ a woman clothed in scant attire;
He made fast a line to the body and towed
it to the Staten ‘Island shore. It proved to
be the remains of a woman, badly decom-
posed and apparently a long time iii the
Water. '

She was dressed in a buff colored waist
with V neck. trimmed with green plush
hand lace insertion, hm; on black WGolen
stockings and yellow gnm‘u‘s with silver
clasps; had on white potticoat and no skirt
or other clothing. 0n the left wrist was a
large gold chain bracelet, and on the fin-
gers of the same hand were four beauti-
ful rings as follows: One marquise, with
28 diamonds and fine emeralds; one orna<
.mented wire ring with ruby, heart shap-
ed; one small solitaire diamond ring and
a broad wedding ring, with letters “J. N.
L. to M .McK., April 2, ’89,” engraved on
inside. Her waist was fastened at the neck
with a stick pin representing the head of
a. bullock with mother—o" pcni‘l horns, one
of which was broken short off.

The body was apparently that of a. well
developed woman of about 30 years. The
features were entirely unrecognizable. The
eyes, lips and nose we are entirely gene. A
13.08 handkerchief with no initials .Was
found in the waist. Coroner George Schae-
fer’of Stapleton took immediate possession
_of the body and had it removed to, the
morgue at that place. An inquest will be
held. .

A \Varning to the \Vomen Who Oppose the
Congressmau’s Renomination.

LEXINGTON, Ky., June 11.—It is learned
today that six prominent ladies of this
city who took a. leading part in the anti-
Breckinridgc protests at the opera house
here several Weeks ago have been Warned
through a letter mailed from Pittsburg
that there are “skeletons” in their closets,
and that they could not afford to take
part in such a. “detestable proceeding
against Colonel Breckinridge.” "The lot-
ter was sent to Mrs. Judge Milton Dur‘
ham, the address being Mrs. Durham, Mrs.
Judge Jere B. Morton, Mrs. A. M. Harri-
son und three others whose names cannot
be learned. ' f

The letter was sent from Lexington to
the Pittsburg postmaster with the request
that lie remail it to Lexington as address-
ed. The postmastcr wrote across the top
of the lettemin red ink, “Sent from Lex-
ington with the request to be mailed here, ”
The ladies refuse to allow the letter to be
published. One of them said today: ‘ ‘Well,
we know the handwriting, but we cannot
blame him for doing all in his power for
Colonel Brecklnridgc, though it be done
in ever so mean a. manner. The letter will
have no effect. We know our husbands
pretty well, and such threats are beneath
our notice.”
