The Daily Gazette, established in 1890
The Weekly Gazette in 1800.

 

 

The manufacturer, «the merchant, the me-
chanic and” laborer, are all daily and de-
voted readers of the Daily Gazette. En-
terprising, attractive and honest. its readers
believe in it and peruse it thoroughly: and
its Editorials and Advertisements get closer

SOUTH NORWALK IGNORED.

A Move that Will Not Enhance Mr.
Hill’s Popularity in this City.

The Norwalk Street Railway Company seems
to have ignored the fact that there is such a
place as South Norwalk. The City of Nor-
walk. Winnipauk, and the New York, New Ha-
ven and Hartford Railroad companyare the
only places or corporations recognized by its
signs. The impression prevails in South Nor-
walk that it might be desirable for people us-
ing the cars of the Norwalk Street Railway
company, to be informed that the cars con-
veyed passengers to South Norwalk. This may
be a consolidation move on the part of E. J ,
Hill. but it is not making him popular as an
aspirant for Congressional honors. It is quite
generally known that the New York, New Ha-
ven and Hartford Railroad station is located
in South Norwalk. and it would be eouiteous
treatment on the part of the Street Railway
company to recognize the thriving city that
has made it possible for a line of street rail-
way to be maintained between the City of
Norwalk and the station of the New York,NeW
Haven and Hartford railroad.—Sentinel.

The spirit of local loyalty and pride
that induces the esteemed Sentinel,with
double-leaded emphasis, to resent what
it fancies to be an intentional slight to
its locality, is entirely commendable,
but as it is in error as to its supposed
provocation, its zeal becomes super-
sensitiire. The pretty signs upon the
very beautiful cars of the Norwalk
Street Railway Company, were design-
ed specially to aid the public and pre-
vent confusion, particularly in theflminds
of strangers, as to which trolley line
connected directly with the N. Y. N. H.
A: H. R. R. depot. This could not so
clearly and easily be done as by the
wise and really best plan the Company
adopted. No slight was. purposed upon
enterprising, ambitious, bright, saucy
and spunky .South Norwalk any more

than upon North, East and West Nor:

walk. There would be just as good
reason for firing a brick at our propel-
ler “City of Norwelk,” because it does

, not attach the prefix “South” to its cog-
nomen, when, as everybody knows, its
first landing on coming up-from New
York and its last on going down, is at
South Norwalk.

As reasonably might our East Nor-
walk friends “kick” because the signs
of the Tramway Company do not carry
the words “East Norwalk” on their
car signs.

Then, too, how unreasonable; how
unkind and how unjust ; for the Senti-
nel to proceed to dislike Mr. Hill “as
an aspirant for Congress,” simply be-
cause the company of which he chances
to be president, has omitted the word
“South” on its cars. Oh, fie! The
day will come when all sensitiveness
0v er such a triviality will be unknown
to the larger minds 'of the greater Nor-
walk.

 

Pious New Canaan.

Our New Canaan friends are in a fo-
ment over the threatened thorough en-
forcement of the old and practically
obsolete, but never repealed, Puritanic
Sunday law. A few men such as the
newsdealer, barber, etc., were arrested
for violation of this old law last Sunday
and to-morrow these men purpose to
get even by having the persons, doctors,
milkmen, church sextons and all others
found doing any manner of work on
the Lord’s day arrested. _

This will‘not be as severe on the pres
cut generation, however, as the blue
laws of old were, one of which was en-
forced upon the sire of the GAZETTE
editor, in the year 1823, who was ar-
rested there by the godly Deacon
Hickock on a Sunday evening, for vio-
lating the law against Sabbath desecra-
tion, in thathe rode in a wagon to see
his best girl. He was mulcted in a fine
of 8.2 for his transgression in riding,-
had he walked, the good deacon said
he would only have reprimanded the
young man and not punished him by
imposing the fine. “The world do
move.” -

Quickest Voyage‘Ever Made.

The great steamship Campania is
now Queen of the seas. She has low-
ered the record from Queenstown 'to
New York by over three hours and but
for fog would have made the run in-
side of the coveted five days. As it
is, her trip was made in five days, nin
and a half hours. '

Newsman Hayes is the N orwalk agent
of this grand Curnarder and herstaunch
and fleet sister ships.

Took to de Woods.

The democrats in Washington accuse
the President of having deserted them
in the lf’dur of their sorest need, after
the manner of the old darkey at the
camp meeting. “Dare is but two roads,
brudders,” said the excited and some.
what mixed preacher, “one ob dem
leads down to perdition and de odder
to de lake 'what burns wid brimstun
and fire!” “Well, if dat’s so,” shouted
Elder Rhemus, “dis darkey'takes to de
woods.” And he did.

Moses W. Wilson’s Will.

By the will of the late Moses W. Wil-
son, admitted to probate a few days
ago, his entire property, real and per-
sonal, is left to Mr. and Mrs. Edward
Olmstead. Among the items of the es-
tate'is the house in which deceased liv-
ed, and two acres of land on Myrtle ave
nue, about two-thirds of Caukeen’s is-
land and sundry mortgages. Mrs.Olm-
stead had lived with Mr. and Mrs. Wil-
son a number of years and was held in
regard by them. Mr. Wilson had no
children or heirs, and his devising to
these young people is a fortunate cir-
cumstance for them. Mrs. Wilson,
whose death occured several months
before her husband, left a will which
had never been probated. Mrs. ‘Wil-
son’s sister, Miss Ella Wheeler, who
died some time before her, also left a
will. That, too, had not been admitted
to probate. It is now reported that the
brothers of Mrs. Wilson will file letters
of administration under the two wills.

Hunting for Ghosts.

Early this morning a man-wi th “wild
eyes” and long hair,called at this office
and asked if there were any haunted
houses in this section. He said that -he
had read in some of the newspapers
that there was a house on Catherine
street, this city, which was occupied by
ghosts, and that his occupation being
that of a ghost-killer, he had walked
down to see if he could not get the con-
tract for exterminating them. 1t seems
that he visited houses on the street men-
tioned, and succeeded in frightening
several women with his ghost question-
ing, and that he also called at Scofield’s
store for information on the subject.
To a GAZETTE reporter he said, “I don’t
believe there are any ghosts on that
street, but I am‘sure there are some in
Norwalk, as the Lord would not have
sent me on the errand to kill them did
he not know of their existence.” The
man is evidently crazy. ,

O

 

 

Sarcastic.

Since the improvement in the weather, our
people have shown some interest in politics.
Beginning with the town. it may be remarked
that the constables are to be elected. and the
question may be asked: Why not re-elect
John Lockwood ‘2 Justices of the peace are to
be elected: Why should not Justice Austin
be continued in office ? He is not sensitive.—
Hour.

The-street cars carry a little boy for five
cents. and they carry a full grown man for
five cents. The water commissioners charge
three dollars a year for an outside faucet for
use to sprinkle a small door yard,and they
charge the same when the water is used to
sprinkle lawns of nearly an acre in extent.—

The Labor Day Regatta.

The Bridgeport Boating association
is already making arrangements for its
annual Labor day regatta. The regatta
is open to all boats owned along Long
Island, 27 feet and under. Among the
cracks which‘it is expected will be en-
tered are the Ramona, Shadow, Zephyr,
Tern and the Clytie, formerly owned
in Bridgeport, but now owned in West-
port. It is not improbable also that
Commodore Francis Burritt‘s unbeaten
27-foot sloop Commodore will be spec—
ially put in commission for the regatta.

Q.

 

. A Runaway.

This morning the street near Allen
Betts’ residence on the Newtown turn-
pike was strewn with whortleberries,
butter, pears, pieces of wagon, etc.,
evidence of a runaway the particulars
of which we have been unable to get.
Splinters of the dashboard scattered
about leads to the inference that the
horse was a kicker. The horse ran into
Henry Smith’s yard where the wagon

woman belonging in Lyon’s Plains, was
thrown out and severely injured.

A Sudden Attack.

John Pelham and his wife drove down
from Ridgefield, this morning. While
in Ratchford’s saloon, he was suddenly
taken sick, and Dr. Huntington was
summoned, who decided that the man
was suffering from an attack of the
heart, and suggested that he be sent to
the hospital for treatment. The man’s
wife put in an appearance, and helping
him into the wagon, started for home.
Dr. Huntington thinks that if he lives
to get there it will be a miracle.

A press dispatch ,from Springfield»
spys: The New York, New Haven and
Hartford railroadfiofiicials think they
have unearthed a conspiracy of conduct-
ors to steal tickets and sell them un-
punchedto scalpers. As a result of de-
tective work Conductor Dunbar was ur-
rested on his arrival from New York at
2:54 p. in. Friday.

Conductor George W. Parker was
arrested at 7:30 last night, he too hav-
ing just returned from .New York.
Parker attempted to destroy a lot of
unpunched tickets, but was prevented.
Dunbar was shadowed until he went to
a store near the depot. The officers
visited the store and found fifty tickets.
It is claimed that the store-keeper has
sold the tickets for conductors to the
ticket scalpers. _

The officials have long been suspicious
that tickets were being used twice, as
the number of passengers was larger
than the tickets taken on the trains.
They think that about $5.000 has been
stolen.

Parker was released on $500 bonds,
but Dunbar is locked up. Parker has
been conductor on the road for twenty-
six years. Dunbar has been employed
by the road since 1867. ‘

Obituary.

MARTIN S. CRAW.

This old and respected citizen of
Norwalk, after an upright life of eighty-
seven years, departed a little aft er mid-
night of this Saturday morning, at his
former home on Camp street. Mr.
Craw has filled various local offices of
trust and responsibility and was vice-
president of the Fairfield County Sav-
ings Bank at the time of his death.
He has always been proverbially hon-
est, of extremely frugal and saving
habits of life and is estimated to have

left prOperty valued at from thirty to,

fifty thousand dollars. He had been
three times married ; his first wife was
a sister of the late George G. Bishop
and Mrs. Robert Ells. His second wife,
the widow Gorham, who died some two
years since. In January last, he was
for the third time married to the wid-
ow of the late Isaac Church, who sur-
vives him. He left an only child, Mrs.
Warren, of New Haven. His funeral
takes place on Tuesday.

Much Ado About Nothing.

Last evening parties living on this
side of the creek told the police that
they heard noises on Smith street as if
some man was murdering his family.
Ofiicers Darin and~ Kenny hurried to
the scene and found the man and his
wife quietly seated at a table eating
their supper, and two or three children
rolling and tumbling about the floor in
play. The children had been talking
inaloud tone of voice, and the wind
being favorable the noise was wafted
across the creek to ,the ears of some
nervous person who scented murder.

A Collision.

There was an accident near the Street
Railway depot this noon. John J.
O’Sullivan of Gregory’s Point was driv-
ing by just as an electric car was being
backed into the station. Secretary
Acton and. Superintendent Kyle were
in charge of the empty car, neither of
whom saw the team in time to avert a
collision but did shut off the power in
time so that only the hind wheel of the
wagon was struck. The horse jumped

and O’Sullivan was thrown out of the.

wagon but escaped injury. The axle

and one wheel of the wagon were dam-.

aged as was also the harness.

Judgment For Keeler.

'The'civil suit of L. l). Keeler vs.
Bridget Fitzmaurice was heard before
Justice Keeler, this morning. Keeler
brought suit to recover the value of a
horse which he had- sold on the install-
ment plan to Oliver Burton and which
Mrs. Fitzmauricé had attached to cover
a claim of her own against Burton.
The horse was sold at auction under
the writ of attachment for $5. Judg-
ment was given for Mr. Keeler to re-
cover $60.

Ought to be Arrested.

 

A young man in Hackensack has been :

arrested for publicly uttering “loud,
profame and indecent language.” It
served him right. There are dozens of

and punished. It is altogether of two

language on the public streets.

Reducing the Free List.

The Consolidated road has recently
adopted a rule cutting,off transportation
to United States officials and employee
of the goverment. The reason for this
is said to be because the demand for
free transportation wasincreasing at an
alarming rate, and the rule is under-
stood to be the result of concerted ac.

tion in this matter with all the larger .

roads of the country.

DUPUY'S PERIL.

The. Plot of Anarchists to Assaselnuto
France's Prime Minister.

PARIS, Aug. 1’9.—-Le Journal says that
the police have frustrated an anarchist
plot to assassinate Premier Dupuy. The
premier is in Vernet-les—Balns, not far
from the Spanish border, accompanied by
against his life have been numerous re- ‘
cently. , These detectives are supposed to
have discovered the plot through the pres-
ence of several militant anarclilsts‘in the
neighborhood of Vernet._ The anarchists,
says The Journal, had been warned of
their danger the night before the police
expected to arrest them and fled to Spain.
: Other stories conflict with that told by
The Journal. It is alleged that the main
plot was batched in Barcelona by Spanish
and fugitive French anarchists. Three
were designated by lot. They were to
cross thelborder about the middle of Au-
gust and assassinate the premier during
his absence from Paris. The bomb was
made in Spain. The police in Barcelona
deny thatithere is any anarchist laboratory
in that city. The plot was-discovered after
the three anarchists agents had started for
France.

The Spanish consul in Cette was iii-
structcd to inform the French police of
the premier's danger. The'warning was
accompanied with a description of the
three men, two of whom were already
known to the French police.

An Alleged Murderer Killed.

Sun from Wheeling says: “Howard Rad-
cliffe, a farmer, discovered the dead body
of Major Russell lying in one of Russell’s
fields in Barbour county, wltl rifle ball
through the heart. Russell a (1 his wife
were recently tried for the murder of Mrs.
Russell’s mother, Mrs. Amanda Welch,
by poison. They were acquitted bygthe
jury. After the trial Russell was warned
by a. notice on his door to leave the coun-
try, but paid no attention to it other than
to go armed."
