“Whoop ’Er. Up 1”
The republican Herald of Winsted,
has these kind words to say for Nor-
walk’s favored son : ~ .
Hon. E. J. Hill, of Norwalk, is being
pushed by his Fairfieldv county friends
for the republican congressional nomi-
nation in this district, and so far as
heard from has a good show for the
place on the ticket should the prize be
captured for Fairfield county. Mr.
Hill is a man of excellent abilities, as
has been shown by a creditable career
in the state senate. It is somewhat
early in the campaign, however, to con-
sider the time for nominations closed,
and as this district is pretty sure to go
republican next November other pre-
cincts are likely to be heard from, With
their claims for “favorite sons.”
The Last day.
That intensely Democratic Journal
the New York Sun of this morning, in
in an agony of grieved spirit thus specu-
lates:
To-day is Mr. CLEVELAND’S 1a st day of grace,
If he signs the Protectionist and Populist bill
which Congress has passed, he completes the
record of his party’s perfidy. and signs lthe
certificate ofhis own dishonor. If he allows
the bill to become a law without his signature,
he puts himself in a position pitable and de-
grading enough to make even his bitterest
enemies regret the spectacle of-a humiliation
so deep and an attidute so ridiculous. What
will Mr. CLEVELAND do? He has one day in
which to save his party and himself from the
dishonor that follows perfidy; one day and
one way.

1 Now Have a Care.
The great steamship New York, of
the American line, on her last westerly
passage ending on Friday, made the
quickest run on record from Southamp-
ton to New York. Her time was 6 days
8 hours and 38 minutes from“ the Nee'-.
dles to Sandy Hook Lightship. Her
average speed for over 3,050 miles was
twenty miles an hour.
As the New York now holds the rec»
0rd for the fastest westerly pasSage
from Southampton, she can rest for a
while on her laurels. It is extremely
important at this season, when the
transatlantic steamers are so crowded
with passengers and the unusual amount
of fog on the ocean make navigation
dangerous, that all attempts at racing
and record making should now be dis-
continued. '
MrJMorton’s Return. .
Ex-vice President Levi P. Morton,
who has been so prominently mention-
ed for the republican nomination for
Governor of New. York, returned to
this country yesterday on the French
steamer Normandie. Mr. Morton is
still unprepared to announce himself
as a candidate, but the brief statement
he made on his arrival indicates that
he would be willing to serve his party.
His reluctance to declare his intention
seems to be due to the fact that his
claim to the nomination will belcontest-
ed, and this may be so distasteful to
Mr. Morton that he will refrain from re-
entering politics. He is not the kind
of a man who runs after office or ever
cvinces an uncommon anxiety to serve
his bleeding country.
The Last of 'Earth.
The Rev. S. B. S. Bissell funeral ser-
vices at the First Congregational
church on Saturday afternoon, were of
the simplest character as befitted the
deceased. The procession entered the
church, headed by his pastor Rev. Dr.
Noble, who was accompanied by Rev.
S. H. Watkins, followed by Revs. Sew-
ard, Selleck and Elwell, Mr. Watkins
reading the beautiful Episcopal funeral
service. The remains were placed by
the funeral directors Raymonds in the
chancel beneath the overarching shade
of palms and embowered in the beauty
of summer’s rarest flowers. The choir,
composed of Mrs. Lillian N ewkirk,
Miss Alice Sherwood, Mr. Horace
Hatch and Mr. Chas. Tucker, impress-
ively sang the hymn, “The King of
Love My Shepherd Is.” Rev. Dr. No-
ble stated briefly that no eulogies were
to be pronounced.._and none but the
simplest funeral rites observed. He
said all hearts, however, would respond
to the sentiment that “a great man had
fallen in Israel” and on some future oc-
casion, proper memorial’services would
be held in commemoration of the chris-
tian character of the deceased. After
which Dr. Seward read the Scripture
lesson, followed by prayer, by Dr. No-
ble, the singing of the hymn, “For all
the saints who from their labors
real,” when Rev. Elwell pronounced
the benediction. The remains were
then conveyed to Union cemetery where
the committal serv1ce was read by Rev.
Mr. Selleck.
. Many exquisite floral tributes evinced
the heartfelt love and sympathy of
friends, the Y. M. C. A.. sending a
beautiful wreath.
ltev. Dr. Noble announced from his
pulpit yesterday that next Sunday
evening the Bis’sell memorial service
would be held in his church.

Max Oehle’ns‘chlaegcr, formerly a resi-
but another of the many incidents in
the long chapter of crime and outrages
perpetrated by the PatersonAnarch-
ists, seven of whom are» now in prison
for bomb throwing, conSpiracy, and
rioting. ,
Miller was’committed to the Paterson
jail on Saturday night on. the affidavits
of Gustave Moeller, William, Olten and
HermanWolken, sworn to before J us.
tics of the Peace Otto Stutzbach, who
has been assisting the State’s Attorney
and'Detectivc Matthew Connell, the
Prosecutor’s detective, to unearth the
perpetrator of the murder. Each of
them swears that he believes Miller
murdered Max Oehlenschlaeger, whose
body was found a short distance from
the Erie tracks at AllendalerN. J ., on
the night of March 28. .
All the evidence in possession of
Prosecutor Gourley is of a circumstan-
tial nature, and a great deal of it is
based on the affidavit of Gustave Moel-
ler, who was a personal friend of the
prisoner. In his affidavit Moeller says
that on one occasion, while in New
York with the prisoner, the latter said:
“Oehlenschlaeger knows too much
about our plans for our safety. He will
tell somebody yet and get us all in jail.
Keep quiet; I’ll meet him sometime
away from the city, and then I’ll mur-
der him. A blow on the head with a
blunt instrument will keep him still.
Oh, I’ve done this thing before and
never been found out. The authorities
make no inquiries about it. But we
. cannot do it here; we’ll be discovered.
Get him out of the city, then a quick
blow, you know, breaking the skull-
under the skin.”
indian Harbor Yacht Race.
The members of the Indian Harbor
Yacht Club had a great time afloat and
ashore, Saturday, between yachting
and dancing. In the morning they
held a race for the 21-footers for the
handsome $100 silver cup offered by
Vice-Commodore William Osborn. In
the afternoon they sailed a ladies’ day
regatta, in which some of the prettiest
girls in Connecticut took part. This
was followed by a naphtha launch race
at 5 o’clock, while in the evening there
was a yachtsmen’s ball at the Indian
Harbor Hotel.
While the 21-footers were still racing
the ladies’ day race, open to all yachts
belonging to'the Indian Harbor Yacht
Club, was started. While the ladies
did not handle the yachts themselves,
the girls aboard to act as crew. As
some souvenirs went to the girls on the
winning yachts, there was any amount
of 'rival'ry between the various boats.
Ben Andrews entered his Fannie of
Norwalk and had the wife of‘Commo-
dore Frank Burritt for his mascot.
She was admirably sailed by his cousin
Howard Mossman and lacked less than
a minute and a half of being winner in
her class. The Sirens won in 1:27:21 to
her 1 :28 :48. It was a glorious day, good
wind, good luck and the best of cheer.
Free Art and the Tariff.
It has long been a grievance of pa-
trons of art that a duty was- levied on
the works of foreign artists, thereby
adding considerably to the cost and
practically shutting out many fine pict-
ures from the galleries of American col-
lectors.
Now all this is changed, as under the
new tariff bill paintings in oil and water
colors and statuary are admitted free.
Artists say, however, that until foreign
engravings. etchings, lithographs.
bronzes and artists’ materials are ad-
not be said to give free art.
It is these smaller things on which
duty is still levied that go into the hands
of the people and improve their artistic
taste, the oil paintings being a luxury
and their purchase confined in a great
measure to the wealthy.
Nor is it the department of art alone,
in which there are conspicuous and
unjust discriminations in favorof the
rich and against the poor, in this crude
and crazily considered Tariff Bill.
The 15th C. V. Reunite.
The 27th annual reunion of the
fifteenth C. was held at North
Haven, last Saturday. It is reported as
being one of the most enjoyable re-
unions ever held by the “vets.” The
election of officers resulted as follows:
President, COlonel Charles L. Upham
of Meriden; vice president, John B.
Mix of \Vallingford; secretary and
treasurer, Walter Lord of New Haven:
chaplain; Henry G. Marshall of Crom-
well;surgeon, C. H. Beckley of New
Haven; historian, Sheldon B. Thrope
of North Haven. The next reunion
will take place at N augatuck.
Old Gauging Law Reviewed.
Collector Byxbee is in receipt of 'a
letter from the government stating that
an old law would be re-established upon
the passage of the tariff bill. By the
restored law all rectifiers of spirits must
have the spirits sold gauged by a gov-
ernment gauger and stamped. This
will increase the work of the seven
gaugers in this district materially, es-
pecially in New Haven, Bridgeport and
Hartford. It is said that the Hartford
gauger will be called upon to stamp
60,000 gallons 8. year.
Grave Marker.
The Ancient Order of Foresters now
put a grave marker at the head of the
graves of deceased members. The
marker is made of iron and stands
about fourteen inches out of the
ground. It is a cross, with an elk’s
head the insignia of the order. encir-
cled by a wreath of holly bearing the
words “Liberty, Unity, Benevolence,
and Concord.” The arms of the cross
bears the initials A. O. F. A. and on
the stem is the number of the Court to
which the deceased belonged.
Clambake at South Nor-walk.
Nelson L. White post, G. A. R. will
have aclambake early in September.

Blue Laws Not Enforced.
There was no attempt—made in New
Canaan on Sunday to enforce the blue
laws which Grand Juror Arnold has
had so much trouble with during the
last three weeks. The whole move-
ment is a failure in the town and the
sentiment of the townspeople has come
forward in opposition to the laws which
the authorities have been trying to en-
force. As no special orders were issued
last week by the grand juror regarding
business on the Sabbath the merchants
opened up yesterday bright and early
for their usual Sunday morning trade.
Barbershops were also doing business,
as well as the livery stables.
The business men kept their places
open all the morning and closed at
noon time. No arrests were made,
neither was any attempt made to make
those who opened up for business sus-
pend. It is believed there that the busi-
ness men have come out on top in the
struggle.

A Sunday Swarmlng.
Chief of police Bradley arrested a
swarm of bees Sunday evening. They
were discovered about 4 o’clock congre-
gating in a tree in front of the Isaacs
place on Wall street. The Chief patient-
ly waited until the swarm had become
quieted and then securing a ladder
deputized “Pat” Clune to surround
them while he, the chief, stood by to
prevent their escape down Wall street.
As the limb on which the bees had hud-
dled together was being sawed 011',
about a quart of the bees dropped on
the Chief’s shoulder and the way he
went running across the street was a
caution. By this time a large crowd
had collected and surrounding the bees
they were finally landed in a hive and
taken to Chief Bradley’s home. He
reports them as busily at work to-day.
O.
Military Disclpllns.
Referring to the indiscretion of the
two or three at Camp Bradley, the
Norwich Bulletin in an editorial says:
”If there is lack of discipline or digni-
ty on the part of officers of high rank
at the annual encampment, it is useless
to attempt to make the citizen soldiers
that class in department or military
discipline. The same military rules
which apply to them with reference to
behavior should be applied to the offi-
cers of high rank, and if the mistake
has been made of putting men in mili-
tary positions for which they are unfit-
ted, they should be subjected to the
same military discipline'which is ap-
plied to the men who violate camp
orders, and be forced to behave them-
selves or to retire.”
Suspicious Death in New Haven.
The coroner is investigating the cir-
cumstances surrounding the death of
Mrs. Charles Chidsey, who diedSatur-
day night. On Thursday evening the
Woman was taken from the steamer
Richard Peck suffering from some sort
of an ailment, the nature of which
could not be determined. She became
worse and a physician was summoned,
but the woman died about midnight.
The physician reported the case to the
medical examiner and it is said_that
there are strong evidences of pOison-
ing, Mrs. Chidsey was about 35 years

could give no reason for his action. H e
had plenty, having about $250 when he

Miller’s companion gave the name of
R. Clark, which was probably ficti-

of Cook. The police have not deter-

Editor Allen Frightened.
Editor Allen of the Bethel Ledger,
came to Norwalk the other day, and for
the first time saw a trolley car.
He took the next train back home, and
all ofa tremble sat down and wrote
the following for his paper: “We have
seen the trolley cars of South N orwalk,
and heard the going and buzzing noise.
They are much nicer in appearance
than the horse cars, but they are a
dangerous nuisance. The clang of the
gong and the hurrying to get out of the
way of them by pedestrians and teams
on the streets is one of the chiefannoy-
ances. The trolley cars own the town.
People will get used to them of course.

Another Shaft Broken.
This has been an unusual season for
steamer shaft as well as record break-
ing. Some skippers attribute the break-
age of these immense bars of steel to
electrical conditions, the same as cause
highly tempered watch springs to snap
without apparent cause. Saturday the
steam yacht Clinton of New York,
broke her shaft outside of Bailey’s
Beach, near Newport, and had to anchor
to escape going on the rocks. The life
saving crew were called upon for as-
sistance, but were not able to render
any. The torpedo boat Cushing finally
towed her in. .

It Was Alive.
“Will” Tocque of Broad River, says
that on Saturday last. he espied in the
grass what he at first supposed to be a
section of white rope, but that on pick-
ing it up he found that it was very much
alive. He dropped it and started to
run away, but plucked up courage and
crushed the thing on the head with his
‘heel until it was dead,,and then took it
home where he learned that it was a
milk or ghost snake. It was found to
measure 4 feet 69,; inches in length. He
has preserved it in alcohol and will send
it to his best girl in Jersey City.
