Greater Trolley Benefits.

It is butafew months ago that the
opening of our first trolley line, was an
event of sufficient importance not only
to set all Norwalk agog, to fill the
columns of all our newspapers with ex-
ultant “pufis” and to induce hundreds
of people to come from long distances
to see and ride upon the wonderful
trolley cars to try and determine wheth-
er they liked the new order of street
railway transportation or not. Next
came Congressman-elect Hill’s double
track West avenue line, and the trolley
cars of the East and West avenues are
now flying through our city like weav-
er’s shuttles in a loom. These cars

, have become so common here in Nor-
walk as to have lost all novelty with
our people and even the erst frighten-
ed horses, now refuse the poor compli-
ment of a "shy” or the least scared
attention. No Norwalker now would
tolerate a return to our ancient horse-
our system, and the only interest felt
by anybody in these lines, is limited to
those living on the new highways
which the coming,r Legislature will be
asked to dedicate to their use.

Rumor has it that the Tramway line
now creeping towards-‘Dorlon’s Point,
has for its real destination the Sauga-
tuck depot via the old road and salt-
meudows route. Meanwhile the West
avenue line, it is said, purposes to ex-
tend its line to either Westport or
Saugatuck cm the east and thence form-
ing a connection with the line now
extending from Bridgeport to South-
port; thence extending its Winnipauk
branch to Wilton, and to New Canaan,
via Silver Mine, on the North and West,
and to Darien via the Turnpike, on the
south. As the rights of way cost noth-
ing and the tracks can be put down
marvellously low and the motive power
is the cheapest known to science or in-
vention there is no question as to their
proving profitable investments if hon-
estly built and honestly bonded and
stocked. Y: _

Nothing so fully indicates the change
in public sentiment in regard to these
trolley lines, as the multitudes of peo-
ple who go out of their way and ride
upon them, both for business and pleas-
ure. In spite of the accidents which
have occurred in other places, chiefly
owing to the carelessness of those using
them, in getting on or off, it still must
be said that they are overwhelmingly
popular everywhere. _Everybody real-
izes that the trolley cars have brought
with them an accession of comfort and
speed in going about that was hardly
dreamed of even by the most ardent
friends of the new mode of transit.

Competition has secured to the pub-
lic low fares also. Now one can ride
from Winnipauk on the north to the
South Norwalk depot for the single
fare of five cents, and from South Nor-
walk depot to Rowayton for five cents
more, or a total distance of nearly seven
miles for ten cents. This is the cheap~
est kind of cheap transportation, and
associated as it is with the maximum of
comfort to passengers, is enough to
make the old fogy croakers ashamed of
their pessimistic prophecies.

And yet all the advantages of the
new system of transit have not been
secured yet, but warm, clean and well
lighted and ventilated cars, gentleman-
ly and competent employees, with
rapid, safeand comfortable transit, are
a good deal to be thankful for and the
people will be disposed to wait in
patience for the other advantages which
are certain to come with the new order
of things, when trolley cars will run
from Bangor to Boston, Boston to New
York, New York to Washington and
sooner or later from ' New York to
Chicago. It is a serious problem as to
the business efi'ect this new system is to
have upon the incomes of the steam

railroads of the country.

Cheap Bread and Coal.

Aspiritedcompetition on bread and
coal has broken out in PortHuron,Mich-
igan, which would prove very helpful to
the poor everywhere could it spread the
country. Commencing there, yesterday
morning, the 17th, eight of the
twelve large bakeries sold bread at the
ratebf two loaves for five cents. This
is to meet a cut made by the others,
who last week reduced the price from
five to three cents a loaf. ‘ At noon, one
of the four bakers cut. the price of his
to two cents and as none are losing
money thus far by the cut, it is now ex-
pected the in xt cut rate will be two
oaves for three cents. But coal has ex
perienced the severest out. Hard coal
in stove size is selling at $3 50 per too,
a price unheard of in Port Huron here-
tofore. A short time ago the local deal-
ers tried to raiSe the price iron $5.50 to
$5.75 per ton. One dealer refused to
raise, and the cut- was made to bring
him into line. He refuses to be brought
to time, however, and it is expected
that coal will be down to 82 if the war

‘ is not settled soon.

A Pretty Memorial.

This week, Mark Stevens, the granite
worker, will erect a very pretty monu-
ment to the memory of the late James
Henry Burnes, at Riverside cemetery.
It consists of a scroll on which is neatly
lettered the dates of birth and death of
the young man, and at the head of the
same is an open book on the opposite
pages of which appear the following
inscriptions :

Mamas; V.V.—Beati mundo corde; quoniam
ipsi Deum Videbunt.

.S, JEAN XI-23 —Jesus 9(- 9’: dit Ton fiere ressus-
oitiera.

The interpretation 0f the former is
“Blessed are the dead which die in the
Lord,” and the latter-:“Jesus said they
shall rise again.”

It is presented as a memorial from the
Sunday-school class of which the de-
ceased was a member. . ~

EXECUIED.‘,_H1MSELP. _

Jack Cronin Hanged At An 'Early
Hour This Morning.

Perfectly.

The execution at the Connecticut

 

the same at the next meeting of the'

The highway committee was instruct- _

State Prison at Wethersfield. this morn-
ing with the new automatic hanging
machine was a perfect success.

The executed murderer was John
Cronin who was convicted of the murder
of Albert J. Skinner of South Windsor.

The trap was sprung at .exactly nine
minutes pastl o’clock. Cronin’s neck
was broken by the shock and death was
instantaneous. '

Father Lynch was closeted with the
prisoner for half an hour before the
execution, and'atl o’clock Cronin was
led out of his cage and in the presence
of the Warden, deputy warden, and
one or two others asked if he had any-
thing to say.

He replied that he was sorry for his
crime and hoped for forgiveness. As
to the details of the crime he had noth-
ing-[more to say. ,

he death warrant had already been
read to him, and his arms were pinionedj
behind his back. -

The door leading to the execution-
room was then opened. and he was con-
ducted to the slightly raised platform
on which he was to stand.

The black cap was then adjusted and
he stepped on the platform.

This set the machinery of the autom-
atic gallows to working, and the hand
on the dial began slowly to revolve.
Meanwhile his legs were strapped to
gether and the noose adjusted around
his neck, the knot being just under the
left ear.

The time required was not equal to
that provided for the trap to spring,
and everything‘being in readiness the
Warden pressed his foot on one of the
automatic springs and the trap was
sprung. Cronin was jerked into the
air and dropped, death being instan-
taneous.

As Soon as Cronin’s body was out
down it was placed in a plain casket
and taken by the undertakers to the
morgue. At daylight the remains were
buried in the Blue Hills Roman Catho-
lic cemetery. There were no religious
services at the grave,

Murderer Cronin spent his last day
in his usual taciiurn fashion. Most of ,
the time he read Catholic books or re-
ceived the ministrations of Father
Lynch, his spiritual adviser. He told
the day watch that he was prepared to

term of years in prison. _ He would like
to live he said if he could in some way
be of service to those he had wronged.
His half sister and her husband came
to the prison to visit him, but he would
not see them.

He was not notified of the hour of

for the night. The watch had strict
orders not to disturb him until the
Warden arrived to read the death war-
rant after midnight. _

Early in the fall of 1893 Albert J.
Skinner, a carpenter and joiner of-
South Windsor, went hunting with
“Jack” Cronin as his companion. As
he passed along the road a neighbor
greeted him and inquired: “Where’s
your dog?” Skinner made no verbal
reply, but nodded his head toward
Cronin, who was following about twenty
feet behind, as if to say, “I‘here’s my

That nod undoubtedly furnished the
motive which induced Cronin to mur-
der Skinner on the morning of Oct.
6, 1893. On that morning Skinner was
sitting in the kitchen of the onestory
house in which he lived at South Wind-
sor, eating breakfast with his fiv e-year.
old daughter Irene. Suddenly Cronin
entered the room, drewfia six-shooter
from his pocket, and discharged five of
its chambers. One shot took effect in
the back of Skinner, who arose from
the table, placed his hand to his side,
exclaiming, "Oh, mother», I’m shot!”
and started to go through a small halt
way to the room where his wife was
busy. He turned to come back to the
kitchen, and fell to the floor uncon-
scious. ‘ Skinner was lifted \up and-
placed on the bed, where he lingered
for nearly an hour, after having said
that “J ack” shot him.

Cronin ran away, but was found
hanging about the road near by, and
with great ugliness of speech and ap-
parently in sullen temper. said, in reply
to a question: “I shot the d— dog,
and I want to go in and finish him.”

A clear sound mind in a sturdy,
healthy body, a bright eye, an elastic
step, a clear skin, come without fail
when Paine’s celery compound is given
a trial with merely reasonable care and
regularity.

Says Mr. Dudley B. Stratton, one of
Worcester’s best citizens, the prosper-
ous proprietor of the Lincoln Square
dining rooms, in a recent letter :

“About six months ago I had a severe

attack of eczema. No p‘en'can dew
scribe my sufi‘erings. I doctored and
used all the cures I could hear of, but
it was still in my system.
. “Hearing that Mr. William H. Rob-
inson, with the jewelry firm of Nelson
H. Davie, 351 Main street, had been
cured of eczema. by using Paine’s cel-' '
ery compound, I called on that gentle-
man, and ass. result started to take
this wonderful remedy. What Mr.
Robinson told me has been proven to
be true and I take this Opportunity to
express my gratitude. I will gladly
answer any one who may wish to in-
quire further in regard to the medi-
Cine.” .

Paine’s celery compound is the great-
est blood and nerve remedy that medi-
cal science has yet attained. It makes
people well. ‘ .
