The water commissioners indicate that they expect to have their orders obeyed. If people will not listen to warning, they are to be put 1n such a position that they cannot use the water 1E111n1a.wfula_t times, or at any other time. our To the great mass of users of the city water, the above “brave wo'rds” are all Greek. If the water commissioners de- sire their oflicial fulminations to be read by their thirteen hundred customers, they should either address a notice. to each consumer by postal card, or else publish them in a newspaper that is read by all the people. There is a whole avenue near the centre of the city, where but one single water consumer saw the paper in which the order above referred to, appeared. Tariff Bill Bursted. After months of dreary, vexatious scheming and tinkering of the proposed Reform Tarifi Bill, the Democrats of the Conference Committee of the two Houses, emerge from their seclusion and report an irreconcilable disagree- ment! Thousands of millions of dollars have been lost to this country and to our laboring masses, by’reason of the threat to destroy our own American industries and give our future orders to the manufacturers and their pauper paid laborers in Europe. And now it looks as if we might be compelled to endure the McKinley law for another year at least, and run the terrible risk of a return to the distressingly pros- perous times preceeding‘ the last Presi- dential election, when all our factories were iunning, all our laboring masses at work and a period of business activ- ity and success, unprecedented’in this or any other country, everywhere pre- vailed. There is a hailing cry of distress go- ing'up all over the country calllng for a halt in this Tariff scandal and butch- ery of all our business industries. “Disagreed” indeed! Well, the Peo- ple of this country have disagreed with the ruinous Tariff performance through- out, and have shown that disagreement at every election which has taken place since the lamentable farce opened. They will continue to “disagree” in the elections now to follow. As a Compromise- The warring elements among our Democratic friends at Washington as regards the tariff, leads us to indicate a simple way out of the woods. It is now plain as a pipe-staff, that the Wilson Bill can never become a law, and it is equally evident that the “diluted” Mc- Kinley bill of the Senate is foredoomed to a defeat. Leaving the McKinley bill on the statute book will not, how- ever, cage the tariff bear. That this country believes in some sort of pro- tection is certain, but that it is irrevoc- ably committed tO some of the ultra features of the McKinley tariff, admits of a strong doubt. tion which should be settled all agree, and none more than the merchants and manufacturers of this country. Tariff agitations are harmful and tariff chang- es much more so. Every change in the tarifi‘ has been followed by a financial “squall” of greater or less importance, and yet the politicians of both parties, decline to leave the question alone. Strictly speaking, the tariff has no more connection with politics than the bait- ing of a fish hook, but it is a question that has got into politics and it will stay there until the American people- rise up in their might and cry out “hands off.” In view of the present situation, we believe the question capable of a settle- ment and a permanent one at that. We advocate no experiment or crank legislation, we simply suggest that Con- gress rc-enact the tariff of 1883; and our reasons are: it is no experiment as it was on the statute book for seven years; it has been through the courts .and would call for but few, if any at all, further judicial explanations; the That it is a ques‘ Treasury ofiicials know all about its tails and administration; merchants and manufacturers are acquainted with its previous workings and effects upon theirbusiness; as a revenue producer it has a record as wast‘shown during the last year of President Cleveland’s pre- vious administration. Our Democratic friends could consistently support it, because it substantially endorses Mc- Kinleyism, and because the denuded condition of the Federal Treasury're- quires cash more than anything else. Our Republican friends could not re- ject it because it was framed and passed under Republican auspices, and it might ’lead to an agreement to leave the tariff alone for the next twenty five years. But best of all, we have a “ready made” law that could be passed and signed by the President inside of two hours if Congress had any disposi- tion to expedite matters, and settle this troublesome question. Here, in our judgment, is common ground where all the warring elements can ‘figet to- gether” and give us a law that is in no sense experimental, but that has been tried and tested; that is a step in the direction of alower tariff arid one more- over that has yielded ample revenue. If Congress had any regard for the American people; if they desired to see business revive, factories run and the thousand activ—Ities of the county re- sume, they would settle this question. If, however, they wish to see the coun- try languish, and idleness and want, the right hand of anarchy, continue to work mischief, they will keep this question open indefinitely. important Changes. The Fairfield County Bank despair- ing of ever training the good and faith- ful general house clea r, Charley Ad- dison, into a reliable Wurglar catcher, have permitted him to resign his long held and responsible position as body guard and protector of the bank and its officers, and appointed in his stead the more able and stalwart, paler faced friend and brother, Frederick Thomp- son, as future night watch and guar- dian of the venerable institution. Nor is this all. Builder Malkin is at work cutting a door through the partition ”separating the Directors’ rooms Of the National and Savings Banks, so that the new watchman can have charge of the two institutions and receive a com- pensation befitting a man of responsi- ble character.-. The Savifi’gs Bank has in contemplation the introduction of steam heat into the Selectmen’s and Town Clerk’s ofiices, and so reduce the- trouble and danger from fires, inciden- tal to the use of stoves. .9 USE DANA’S SARSAPARILLA, IT’S “THE KIND THAT CURES.” Homeless and ill. _ A well dressed man was found lying upon the ground near the corner of White street and Bates place in Dan- bury, Wednesday.

Disco'vered Buried About One-Half Mile Distant From the Graveyard. A strange depredation has been dis- covered by a wellknown Norwalk an- tiquarian iu the East Norwalk ceme- tery. In this garden of the dead, Norwalk’s most ancient burial ground, there are two monuments, twins in the particu- lars of shape and size. Both mark the the colonial era, and both are fairly preserved. They are the only two of the kind In the inclosure, and beneath them sleep two of the principil men of early N orwalk Governor Fitch’s name and the testi- mony to his talents and virtues are legiblyinscribed upon the imbedded slate slab of one of these monuments, while the slab testimony to the station and worth of the occupant of the second tombhas for years been missing from its resting place. The matter has puz- zled the antiquarian, who has sur- mised and guessed as to the sleeper beneath the unmarked granite, but only surmised and guessed. An indefatigable search was insti- tuted for the slab, and at last discovery of the long lost record has been made. The slate has been clandestinely taken from the table monument and buried about one-half mile distant from the graveyard. It has been broken in sev- eral pieces, but is sufficiently intact to admit of quite a correct copy-reproduc- tion, which a descendant of the tomb’s occupant, Joseph St.John, from whom descended the two Norwalk Stephen and. Moses ShJohn family branches, has instructed a citizen of Norwalk to prepare and have put in place. Estimated Population.

Satolli on the saloon. Mgr. Satolli, the Apostolic Delegate, has just rendered adecision condemning the liquor traffic, especially as it is car- ried on in the United States, and ap proving the eXpulsion of liquor dealers from Catholic societies. This decision was called forth by an appeal from the ruling of Bishop Watterson of Colum- bus, 0.

A certain young man living in this city has gotten himself into trouble from which it will be no easy matter for him to extricate himself. .He seems to have doveloaed a mania for pawning bicycles which did not belong to him.» Some days since he purchased a wheel of H. R. Buckley on installments and as has since been learned, 'pawned it at a Bridgeport pawn shop, and he also managed to secure another wheel by deliberate lying, from the same party, which went the way of the first wheel, He then rented a wheel of C. Ford See- ley which also found its way, with the young man’s help, to a pawn shop. He then paid his respects to Wheeler & Hanford and secured a bicycle which went the way of the others. The wheel . that led to the discovery of the young man’s misdoings was found in the pawn 81109 by 3 Bridgeport officer who was in search of a stolen‘b‘icycle belonging to another party.

According to the London Press, slie “'on Entirely on Her Merits. LONDON; July 19. —Tho following is taken from The Times report of yester- dayls yacht race: “There was too much wind for the Bri. tannin to show to full advantage and just enough for the Vigilant to do so. The latter. in fact, had her day and came through it with flying colors, her first vic- tory in British waters being gained in ir- reproachablo style. There were passing squalls of wind and rain during the day, but the gusts were at no time so trying as they were on the previous day. The race proved beyond doubt that the Vigilant is more than the Britannia’ sequel in a fresh wind on every point of sailing. It must . be remembered, however, that yesterday's race was quite a smooth water trial. It remains to be seen whether the Vigilant will be able to beat the Britannia in a head sea. This, on the face of the Valky- rie' s performance in the last race of the America’ s cup series, appears to be doubt. ful. It was in every particular a reliable hard wind speed trial, and the Vigilltnt’s victory was no surprise to the people who have closely watched her performances here. ” ' The Standard says that the Vigilant’s victory was well deserved and was gained without the shadow of a fluke. The News says that the race was won by the Vigilant on its merits. The Bri- tannla’ 5 success, it adds, has been most encouraging, but it needs to be confirmed by a series of victories in American waters. She will do Well to make the best of her opportunity while it lasts. Honors of this sort are commonly short lived, and in yacht racing the Americans have a posi- tive gift for surprises. DANISH PLAYERS VINDICATED. The Burgomuter Who Expelled Them From Sleswlck Dismissed. COPENHAGEN, July 19.—-The Danish government has obtained satisfaction for the expulsion from Sleswick, Germany, of the eight Danish players belonging to the Royal theater at Copenhagen. The players were arrested at Hadersleben, Sleswlck, early in June, under instruc- tions from the burgomaster of that place, , 'who claimed that there was a prohibition against the use of the Danish language in Sleswlok. The actors and actresses were ordered to leave and went to Ribe, across the frontier in Denmark, where they were warmly received when the facts of their expulsion became known. The Danish government called the at- tention of the government of Germany to the action of the burgomaster of Haders- leben, and after the matter had been in- quired into the burgomaster was dismiss- ed in disgrace. It has been learned that there was formerly a - prohibition against the use of the Danish language in Sles- wick, but the order had been withdrawn. The Army Worm In Wisconsin.
