' The GAZETTE is exceedingly sorry that it has not room to publish a list of the important items missed by the Sentinel during the week past, but as our reading space is limited, nearly all of our columns being taken up by ad- vertisers whoknow which paper brings them the best returns, we must forb‘ear exposing our esteemed friend’s failure to keep up with the GAZETTE in furnish- ing the public with fresh, live, news. o.

All right neighbor, glad to know of your repentance and reform, as we re« member to have read a doleiully com- plaining letter sent to the President of this railroad sniveling because a small bit of printing had been given to the G'AZETTE. “ ’Twas ever thus.” Play Like Gentlemen. The Yale and Princeton boys have a most unpropitious day for their test game of football in New York to-day. Nevertheless it is to be hoped that both sides will play like gentlemen and thus save this our noblest game, from furth- er misrepresentation and unreasonable predjudice. The Herald aptly says to- day’s game is likely to be a final-test whether these annual contests shall be allowed to continue. College faculties, parents, _and now finally the police, have resolved themselves into a com- mittee of the whole to pass judgment upon the alleged brutality which the game has recently developed. Play football as hard as you please, but play . like gentlemen. It rests entirely with yOur_ own sense of propriety and honor, whether you leave the field with plaud- its for your pluck and skill or condem- nation for your brutality. Our Y. M. C. A. The good ladies of Norwalk, have taken hold of the work of endeavoring to rescue the Y. M. C. A. organization in this city from its financial embar- rassments. This is the only institution where our young men and boys can without cost, spend their leisurehours in an edifying and entertainihgway and under wholly good and enobling influences. But to furnish inviting quarters, heat and light, and the papers, magazines, music, at ceteras, costs money and a good deal of it. The saloon opens its doors and makes its quarters as enticing as possible On money furnished by its visitors, but the Y. M. C. A. has like the church, no other source of revenue than the free contributions of such of our generous hearted people as feel an interest in saving our boys from downward paths. An entertainment at the Opera House is now proposed, which Will be of rare —ooo interest and entirely worthy of a large . attendance and which it is hoped will re suit in securing sufficient funds to at least tide this most worthy cause, over its present pressing needs. A rare musical treat is promised, consisting of vocal and instrumental melodies and contributed to by some of the best talent of Bridgeport, such. ‘as Messrs. Haldwick and Wallace, tenors, _and Mr. Hawley, basso, acompanied by Mr. Elmer Joyce, also Miss Bishop, a talented elocutionist. The Apollo Orchestra will also furnish music on the occasion. The admission charge is butamere trifle, so good citizens, one and all, please give these kind ladies who are so generously giving their labors to insure two pleasant cvenings’ entertainment for you, the encouragement of your presence on Tuesday and .Wednesday evenings next. No worthier cause appeals to yOur liberplity and approving support. ——-——~—<+>—— Causes for Thanksgiving. Among the numberless causes for in- dividual thanksgiving, there are others of grave, National import to some of which the N. Y. Tribune has made these apt and opportune references : “The first Thanksgiving proclama- tion in this country was issued to the colony of Massachusetts Bay, and com- manded the people to render thanks for the continued life of George III, for additions to his family, giving as- surance that his gracious and beneficent rule would be perpetuated, and inci- dentally for good harvests. We have advanced so far since that time that to- day one of the chief i'easons'for thanks- giving by the people from Bangor 10 the Golden gate is that something has been done to get rid of a rule essen- tially British in spirit and interest, and as lawless and hostile to the Will -of the people in all the‘states, and in many cities as corrupt, as the govern. ment of King George was at its worst. For many years the people of this country have been battling to emanci- pate themselves and their industries Q m .7 I ' 11' ~ from the- tyranny of British ideas and I interests and from the corruption which, pervading‘British government ‘ (long before the Revolution, has its, roots here as it had there in the feeling that government exists, not for the good of the governed, but for the en- richment of the governing class. Only two . years agothe election of a Presi- dent whosc foreign, financial and inclus- trial policy has been wholly British, by the crimes of a governing aristocracy in Southern States and in Northern cities seemed to turn back the hands of time more than a century. The Nation gives thanks that gov- 'ernment .of the people and- for the people does not perish. That when twenty million American wage-earners found their wages reduced, and many of them were out of work because of an attempt to surrender the markets of this country to foreign competitors, then they revolted. ’lhe millions who judge government, not by its pretences but. by its"results, resolved to have an end of the British policy as soon as possible in favor of the United States. The soldiers of Cromwell gave thanks after a battle with their weapons drawn and ready. It is gladdening and glor- ious that the people have found a pur- pose worthy of their highest efforts, and have proved that they mean to have this country governed by Ameri- cans and for Americans. They mean thatAmerican workingmen shall have the first chance in American markets. In short, they mean American ‘ inde- pendence, in its broadest and fullest sense, and for that we may well give thanks with profound gratitude.” OD Captured At Last. For some months past a man has been frightening women and girls and all efforts to effect his capture or estab. lish his identity had until yesterday proved futile. Captain Dann and Grand Juror John El. Hoyt about a week ago gained a clue which they have quietly but per- sistently followed up and yesterday, Michael Pencola, a stone mason, was placed under arrest as being the guilty party. His description tallied With that of four young Misses, Donnelly, Mar- ron, Crawford and Adams, whom he had at different times insulted near Pine Island, while they were going to and from their work at the corset fac- tory. The prisoner was taken before Justice Rose, last evening,, aud the witnesses gave damaging testimony against the accused, who was found guilty and fined $7 and costs and sent to jail for thirty days. He has appeared in various parts of the town at divers times and at all hours. Many women who have of late been afraid to be out after dark for fear of encountering him will be glad to learn of the man’s arrest. 00 ' Recent Deaths. . Frank A.

For some years after the war, the color- ed people of Fairmont, W.Va.. had the service of White people as superintendents and teachers in their Sunday schools. The illiteracy of the pupils made it necessary to begin with the rudiments of language - instruction before much could be done in the Way of Bible study. One day while the primary class stood before a. large chart on which were print~ ed words of one syllable, the teacher point- ed to. the word it, and slowly spelling i-t, it, asked the class to say it after her.
