SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 8,1894.
The Daily Gazette, established in 1390
The Weekly. Gazette in 1800.
Stop it!
Many GAZETTE _‘readers have called
our attention to the fact that our city
is exceedingly short on its number of
policemen, and that at least two ad-
ditional men should be appointed to
serve at night. This is undoubtedly
true, for the territory to be covered
here by our night patrol is very large.
More men should be put on, and a stOp
put to any of them doing jury duty, as
is now the case.
O.
A Dead Give Away.
Editor Rodemeyer, who is as inno-
cent as a lamb in all matters that per-
tain to the female sex, in a pedantic
effort to show off his pretended wis-
dom, thus gives himself dead away.
Just see how bravely he rants :
Out in Missouri they'have “religious
hugging societies” to swell the church
treasury, and a Missouri paper gives
the following scale of prices:
“Girls under sixteen, 15 cents a hug of two
minutes, or 10 cents for-a short squeeze ; from
sixteen to twenty, 50 cents; from twenty to
twenty-five. 75 cents ; school marms, 40 cents ;
another man’s Wife. $1 ; widows. from 10 cents
to $3 ; old maids, 3 cents apiece or two for a
nickel—no limit to time.”
The fellow who got up that price list
didn’t know his business. It is plain
that in such matters, he is as deficient
in experience as in good taste. He has
arranged his schedule wrong-end to,_in
the first place, and shows his boorish
ignorance by his cheap reflection upon
“old maids.” If the gentlemen patrons
of this “religious hugging society” are
wise, the treasury must show vastly
more nickels than dimes and dollars,
and if themanagers are not all fools
they will appoint in the place of this
idiotic price-list mathematician, a, man
of experience and appreciation, who
has some.idea of the relative value of
the goOds'he' is putting on the market,
and especially one who has not been
snubbed ‘Oii'jilted by an “old maid,”
but "who knows how nice they really
are.
State Politics.‘ .
A Bridgeport letter says that Mayor
Marigold, of Bridgeport, will probably
run forfState Senator. That in the
Fourth ,Cbngressional District. it is un-
derstood-that the Hon. Frederick Miles
will not run again. Henry S. Sanford,
of New Milford, the well-known law-
yer, a man of sterling integrity‘fiiid
high character, has been requested, in
an open letter, to be a candidate, and
in an open letter accepts the invitation.
The Hon. Eben J. Hill, Of Norwalk,
ex-senator, and one of the best known
and esteemed citizens of the district,
has a strong backing also for the nomi-
nation. A movement has begun, too,
for ex—Speaker A. W. Paige.
The “New Haven Journal and Cour-
ier” declares that the election of a
Congressman in that district is more
important than securing a gubernatorial
candidate,says General Merwin’s nomi-
nation would ruin the chances of N.
D. Sperry for Congress, and protests
against General Merwin entering the
field after having positively declared
he would not be a candidate.
Active preparations are making for
the republican ratification rally at
Bridgeport, September 25th. It is an-
nounced thus early that “all the candi-
dates on the state ticket will be pres-
ent.” ‘ -
There seems to be a growing desire
on the part Of leading democrats that
Hon. E. C. Benedict should be their
candidate for Governor, while an ap?
parently large majority of republicans
are equally earnest in their wishes that
Col. Cheeney should. be their party’s
gubernatorial standard—bearer.
And the South Norwalk News says
“that well-founded rumors are abroad
that Commodore Smith, of Stamford,
is to enter in the Congressional race.
The Commodore is a popular man, and
should he get his eye on the prize be-
fore him, he would make the strongest
kind of a run.” '
Yes, the Commodore is very much in
the habit of “fetching down the per-
simmons” he reaches for.
But the greatest shock to political
nerves will be the following deliberate
and cold-blooded refusal of support :—
. FOR GOVERNOR. '
The general opinion appears to be
that E. C. Benedict, of Greenwich, is
to be the democratic candidate for
Governor. Should he be nominated,
106 do not-propose to support him. He
is too intimate with President Cleve-
land, and the President has not earned
our good Will by his course concerning
the tariff, and because Mr. Benedict is
of the same opinion with Mr. Cleve-
land, we cannot support Mr. Benedict.
——J{0ur. -
It is true that some one may tell Com-
modore Benedict, and thus temper his
disappointment and sorrow, that it is
invariably the candidate that [the Hour
does support, who gets defeated, and
the one it opposes, who wins.
Funny, isn’t it .?
You Naughty. Naughty Boys.
The esteemed Sentinel andl’the‘y'oiihg!
and lusty News are "now’iat-it licketyL

San’y purpose, or whoshall hunt, pursue,

That ought to have settled the scrap,
and the News, if it had'known as much
as Capt. Scott’s coon, would have come
right down off the fence,:but instead it
gets back at the esteemed Sentinel with
this cruel, spiteful statement that every
one must know to be false:
“And if the Sentinel should _‘deem it
advisable’ to suspend publ‘cation, Clhe
Daily News would consent as Willingly
and gladly as any Of the Sentinel’sown
readers.” . "
And again with this naughty thrust :
“Theeditor of the Sentinel knows
nothing about the :editorial opin-
ions expressed in _his paper. The
editorials that are printed in the Senti-
nel are prepared in New York, and are
stereotyped and sold to a hundred oth-
er country editors, in plates, all ready
for printing, for 36 cents a yard. This
saves considerable work, brain fag and
expense.”
This is all bad and vicious enough,
but the still resentful, malicious News,
tries to lug its venerable grandsire, the.
GAZETTE, into its scrap, thusly:
“It has caused its (the Sentinel’s)
journalistic spleen to curdle, and
brought on an attack of the _mulli-
grabs; a capricious infliction, which en.
ables it to swallow Without even Wink-
ing, and with apparent relish, an in-‘
geniously concocted dose of the GA-
ZETTE’s sarcasm.” *
Now the GAZETTE rises to prove an
alibi. It isn’t in'it. Of course the idea
suggested ' elf to many that the mem'
Ory of sain ly Mr. Bissell was not hon-
ored as he would have preferred, in
what he, had he been living, would
have deemed a Sabbathdesecration, in
the work done during its sacred hours,
in getting out the elaborate report of
his memorial services, including the"
full text of Dr. Noble’s eloquent eulo-
gy. But the GAZETTE, and especially
the GAZETTE force were heartily glad
not to be called together to run out a
Labor Day edition, with the exception-
al and more urgent local news of two
fires and a suicide. So, dear friends,
both of ye’s, do be quiet and forgivin’.
_ _ One on,John. _ .
A pretty good story is told at theexs
pense of a certain constable of this city,
who doesn’t live. very far form _ the
Norwalk Hotel. For some time, it is
said, he has had among other writs, one
for the arrest of a young man who at
one time lived on Chapel street, but
for some time past has been residing in
New York, The constable heard that
the young man was visiting friends on
Chapel street, and decided to arrest
him. He visited the house,vbut was as-
sured by the women folks that the man
he was looking for was not there, and
after making a hasty search the officer
went away. It now transpires that
during the entire stay of the officer in,
the house the young man wassitting on
the garret stairs eating peaches, and
that shortly after he was seen gOing
down the avenue Etowards the depot.
The officer, if has heard the story isn’t
saying anything about it.

DeKlyn Objected.
Saloon-keeper Fayhan has a glass
in his store window on Main street,
that was the cause of quite a little ex-
citement yesterday afternoon. It is so
placed in the- window that when the
sun shines it casts a dazzle directly
behind the counter at DeKlyn’sbakery,
making it very unpleasant for the lady
clerks. Yesterday Mr. DeKlyn sent a
boy over to, Fayhan’s asking him to
change the position of the objection-
able sign. This Fayhan refused to do,
whereupon DeKlyn himself visited
Fayhan and demanded that it be re-
moved. The latter was still obdurate
and there was a wordy war until Po-
liceman Bartram arrived at the scene,
whon Fayhan promised to change the
pos1tion of the sign.

Must Fall the Stamp Tax. .
An application was recently made by
a Hartford firm to Collector of Internal
Revenue Byxbee, requesting to know
whether packs of playing cards given
away to customers as an advertisement
were subject to the stamp tax of two
cents per pack. The cards bore on the
wrapper the advertisement of the firm
and were not intended to be sold. The
matter was referred to the commission-
er of internal revenue, who has decided
that the cards must pay the stamp tax,
as they would be used in a mercantile
transaction.

Opium Goes up, as We'll as Down.
In consequence Of the war between

Horr’s OPERA HOUSE.
What will, it is safe 2to say, constitute
the most brilliant event of our amuse-
ment season, will occur next Saturday
night at Hoyt’s Opera House, the occa-
sion being the appearance of Charles
Frohman’s company in the presentation
of the humorous play which has been
for the past two years, and is still, the
reigning comedy sensation of London,
“The New Boy, styled. a companion
play to “Charley’s Aunt-,9 and de-
scribed as containing all the rollicking,
extravagant good humor of that play,
but as occupying 'a higher place in the
realms of farcical comedy, and in its
entirety being the very climax of clean
cut,‘ invigorating humor attained by
thoroughly legitimate, methods. The
company is the strongest ever gathered
together for this class of play, the prin-
cipals being _W. J. LeMoyne, Frederic
Robinson, _Willis Scarle, Geo. Backus,
W; R.’ Shirley, Charles Green, Helen
Kinnard, Jessie Busly and Ellen Gard-
ner, and is exactly the same that will
appear in this play for the entire season,
commencing next week.
The production will be seen here with
all the details that have distinguished
its 700 nights in .London, and Will be
personally superintended by Manager
Charles Frohman. .
Horr’s OPERA HOUSE.
To-night Thomas Keene, the emi-
nent tragedlan, will be seen at Hoyt’s
Opera House, in his well-known imper-
sonation of Louis XI. Mr. Keane’s
representation of the Bourbon king in
his decreptitude and old age,-still pos-
shssmg the cunning of his race, but
faltering in body, vengeful, tricky,
deeply treacherous and subtle, choleric
of, temper, and humble to the priest-
hood when it suited a purpose, Withal
superstitious, afraid of death, desiring
life, _and always impressed with the
dignity of his royalty and power—to
display all these qualities is the neces-
sity of the character that Mr. Keene
delineates. His impersonation of this .
bloody ruler is first-class.
HOYT’s OPERA HOUSE.
It is not difficult to account for the
excitement aroused by, the announce-
ment that M. B. Leavitt’s resplendent
spectacle, “Spider and Fly,” will ap-
pear at Hoyt-’8 Opera House next Tues-
-da_y _evening. It is always new and
brilliant, and fills the eye and ear with
a veritable kaleidoscopic feast of mirth,
music and mystery. ’l'o enumerate all
the bew11dering and novel features of
M. _B. LeaVitt’s gorgeous spectacle,
“Spider and Fly,” is a real task for an
indolent writer on an “off” day. It
Will be here; soon in all its splendor.
Go and see_it. The time and money
Will be well invested. '
