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.
Ought to be Continued.
The duration of the exhibition of
relics in connection with our town’s two
hundredand forty-fourth anniversary
has been altcgether too short to permit
of the careful examination to which’the
contributions to the same, by reason of
their value, was justly entitled.
Rev. 'Father Slocum’s loan was peer-
less and invited to scholarly and pro-
tracted investigation. Mrs. James’ rare
China had previously delighted Tiffany
connoisseurs. The Quintard offerings
were of deep interest, and the Enos
and McCready’s very choice. The
Thompson pictures were fine, the Rider
drawing‘ master marked, the Coley,
Nash: Comstock. Van Hoosear, Lock-
wood, Raymond, St. John, Lynes, Mar-
yin, and other tributes singular, sug
gestive, attractive, peculiar and unique,
while as to the Warren sword and pis-
tol more anon. The writer of the forth-
coming history of Norwalk has some-
thing to say under this head, and some-
thing too that may confer additional
_ dignity to our ancient town’s story. ,
The chairman of the relic committee, ‘ -
Geo. W. Cram, Esq.. merits the grati-
tude of the entire community. His in-
terest has been intense, his labors ex-
cessive, and his recherche and costly
colonial curios success complete. One
charm of the exhibition has been that
albeit the contributions were from local
sources simply, and spread Over several
rooms, yet there was not the least ap-
pearance of “emptiness” or “inanity”
in the entire arrangement, the proof of
high and happy artistic taste and direc-
tion.
Coxey’s New Role.
Coxey is at last in congenial company.
He has aroused the interest of that
queer band of semi—religious and semi-
philosophical freaks known as Mahat-
m’as, or advanced Theosophists, who
see things that lie beyond the ken of the
sense preceptions and become astral
bodies roving through space.
It is a great thing to be an astral
body. One of them sees more and
knows more—or thinks he does—than a
Norwalk base ball umpire. 4R0ughly
defined, an astral body may be Said to
‘be the wandering mind of a Mahatma
who has thrown himselfinto acl'airvoy-
nnt state. It is not very practical
knowledge that is acquired on these ex-
cursions; but, on the other hand, it is
harmless and the zealots who'seek it are
apt to revel in a whirlpool of mysticism
that people of commoner clay know
nothing about.
By all means let Coxey continue to
train with the Mahatmas. When he
becomes a sufliciently developed astral
body to have his obituary written the
country will rise up and call him
blessed, not for anything he has done,
but for getting out of the way of -prac-
tical people who wish to win their own
bread under the laws Of the country as
they find them.

Judge Beers Gets Damages.
A decision was handed down Friday
in the United States district court by
Judge Addison Brown aWarding-the
sum of $400 damages to Judge Alfred
B. Beers of Bridgeport, in his suit
against the Hamburg-American Steam-
ship Company. This case attracted a
great deal of attention at the time it
was brought, just after the cholera - -
scare of 1892. Judge Beers claimed in
his action that he had bought a ticket
from Southampton to New York by
way of the steamship Normannia of
the Hamburg line, under the'repre-
centation of the company’s agents that
no steerage passengers were to be car-
ried. After the ship left her dock at
Southampton it was found that there
were 500 steeruge passengers and eleven
cases of cholera on board. The ship
ivas held at quarantine for three weeks.

A current article on health precau-

tion: “Perhaps if all other essential
conditions to health were fulfilled, fret
would claim its myriad victims, for not
the least important item of good health
during warm weather is to be as serene
and cheerful as possible. An irascible
disposition is a magnet for all the ills
that flesh is heir to.”

One on Capt. Peck.

victim of a practical joke. Friday
night as the story goes, he went aboard
of ,the propeller and found a strange
man in possession and With a revolver
pointed at him was asked “What the
devil do you want here.” The captain
revealed his identity, and as the man
lowered the revolver asked the return
question as to what he,:the stranger,
was doing on the boat, and was in-
formed that he had been placed there
by the engineer to watch the heat.
This morning the captain. mentioned
the incident to the engineer and was
somewhat dumbfounded'to learn that
the engineer knew nothing about the
man whatever. ’1' he captain is-in doubt
as to whether the man was an intruder
or that he is the victim Of a practical

Wrote scans-ions anonymous Lottofil
BERLIN, J une 23.7—1'761" four years some
of the exalted personages in Berlin have
been receiving anonymous letters contain-
ing most infamous accusations and con-
veying dire threats. The emperor interest-
ed himself in detecting the author of
these scandalous letters. and as a result of
his investigation has peizzomully caused the
arrest of his own Chamberlain, Von Kotze,
whom he charges with the offense. Gen-
eral you Hahnke, chief of the emperor’s
'military staff, made the arrest, driving to
the ohamberlain’s residence in\ Drake
street in a state carriage for that purpose.
The prisoner was put into the carriage and
driven to the military prison in Linden-
strassc.
The arrest has created an enormous sen-
sation. Von Kotze is one of the masters
of ceremonies at state functions.
The exact time of the arrest is not yet
known, but there is reason to suspect that
Von Kotze returned to Berlin from Schrei-
bershau on Saturday to be present at the
ceremony of laying the cornerstone of the
new cathedral at Lustgarten on Sunday
and was immediately taken into custody.
The friends of the disgraced'man main-
tain that he is insane. ‘ '
BAKERS ‘FOBCED TO WORK.

From Their Encampment.
LISBON, June 23.—The encampment of
the 6,000 bakers of this city who struck
against a municipal regulation requiring

proper weight was surrounded by a strong
force of military and the police at 4 o’clock
this morning. . »
The striking bakers were escorted in
custody of the troops into Lisbon, where
they will be compelled to resume work
under military and police supervision. As
many of the strikers are Spaniards, and as
the latter are believed to be the leaders of
the strike, they will be immediately ex-
pelled from Portugal.
During the two days which the bakers
have passed in their camp outside of Lis-
bon soldiers have been employed to bake
bread enough to supply the demands of
the citizens.

Presence ' of ' Militia Has a Magical
Effect Upon the Strikers.
QUIET AT ‘PUNXSUTAWNEY.
The Soldiers Surrounded Walston Without
Fixing a Shop—The McClure Compa-
n'y \Vill Not Temporlze With
Strikers _ Mining Notes.
PUNxscrAw-NEY, Pa, J une 23.—The
troops arrived at 6 o’clock this mom-ing,
and by 10 o’clock had surrounded Walston
without a shot being fired except the accl-
dcntal discharge of a cavalryman’s car--
blue. When the troops reached the Bell,
Lewis & Co."s lands, skirmish lines were
deployed and a careful search made for
ambushed strikers and “cannons, but al-
though evidences were seen where the
Itallansf batteries had been planted the
cannon had disappeared. The foreigners
were greatly excited at the appearance of
the bluecoats, with bristling bayonets.
Early today the streets‘bf Walston were
filled with men, women and children,
while great squadrons of foreigners were
stationed on the barren hills overlooking
the town. Upon the approach of the mil-
itia they appeared to melt away, running
into the houses and making a break for
the woods. The Fifth and Sixteenth regi-
ments are here under command of General
Wiley and Lieutenant General Greenland.
They have with them the Sheridan cavalry
from Tyrone, together with a battery of
two gatllng guns and two 24 pound can.-
nons. This afternoon the coal company
notified all foreigners to vacate the com—
pany premises, and those Who- refuse will
be evicted.
Generals Greenland and Wiley are now
making arrangements to quell the mob.
The feeling is ugly, and much excitement
prevails as a collision is expected before
long.
Last night the Huns and Italians raided
the companystores at Walston and Adrian
and entirely cleaned them out.
Mine Property Destroyed. ‘
PHILLIPSBURG, Pa., June 23.—The Tip-
ple, together with a lot of mine and rail-
road cars at Colorado mine, was set on fire
and completely destroyed. The mine is
4’ owned and operated by Messrs. J ackman
&, Ellsworth. The report that 2,000
miners had left Houtzdale for Punxsu-
tawney is not correct. About 1,500 min-
ers, headed by a band of music, marched
to Mountaindale, where the men were
working at the old rates. The miners of
the latter place, however, heard of their
coming ' and promptly suspended Work.
When the Rameyltes arrived, they made a~
thorough search for the working, miners,
but they could not be found. After the
delegation had departed, it was announced
that the Mountaindale men would not re-
turn until the 50 cent rate was paid.
Notices were posted at all the United
collierles mines today to the effect that all
their mines would reopen on Monday with
the old men and pay 50 cents per ton.
The. DIcCliu-es \Vlll Not Dally.
PITTSBURG, June 23.—The McClure
Coke company announces through Vice
President Charles Donnelly that the plant
will be started up immediately. If the
old men care to return, they can do so. If
not, new men will be run in. The com-
pany has dallied long enough with the
strikers, he says, and now proposes to
suit itself. The men are promised an ad.-
vance as soon as the selling price of coke
is raised. The McClure company employs
over 3,000 men and is the second largest
concern in the region. It is said that a
large number of guards will be placed in
the works to protect the men at Work.
