Wrong Again.

Editor Bross. of the Ridgefield Press,
is not only editor of one of the best up
country weeklies, and even though it
does have stereotype bowels, but he is
amusing as well. In his last issue he
copies an excellent article from the
GAZETTE and in order to place it before
his readers he erroneously endeavors
to make them believe that the GAZETTE
took it from the New York Times.

Besides being the editor of a good
newspaper Bross is inclined to be a free
trade democrat, but when he attempts
to instill the idea in his Ridgefield
readers that the New York Times has a
place in the GAZETTE office, he, is off

 

his base, so to speak.

American newspapers
enough for the GAZETTE and it regrets
that brother Bross, through politics, is
obliged to get his reading and ideas
from the English press.

Chiefs of Police in Convention.

Early in May next there will convene
at the National Capital the largest
meeting of chiefs or superintendents of
police ever assembled in this country,
all the larger cities to be represented
from New York and Norwalk down,
with the veteran Thomas Byrnes at the
head of the list.

Itis not a mere holiday jolification
which is contemplated, although the

chiefs will doubtless indulge in abun< '

duct interchanges of good-fellowship
and haveafine time generally, but it

is to be in the main 9. business conven-v

tion, having for its object the establish-
ment of a certain central bureau and
the adoption of certain
that were agreed upon at a meeting‘ in
‘hicago two years ago, when the
"National Chiefs of Police Union" was
organized.

It had long been felt that the heads
of the various police departments of
theUniled States being engaged in a
common cause, as it were, and having
interests and aims largely identical in
their character, should be united by
closer bonds of affiliation, become
better acquainted with one another
and with their respective fields and
methods of operation and by reducing
their work to more systematic lines
than are now pursued, to greatly pro-
mote its efficiency in the detection and
prevention of criminal offenses.

There is no question but what this
can be done and to the immense and
lasting benefit of the general police
service. The movement had but a
small beginning at Chicago, less than
fifty chiefs being present, but the start
was made and received a vigorous im-
petus at the following year’s meeting
in St. Louis, where nearly a hundred
officials were in attendance, and where
it was agreed to hold the next conven-
tion in Washington;

The meeting will unquestionably be
one of uncommon interest, and the
hospital people of the National Capi-
tal, are sure to do all in their power to
make the visit of these guardians of
the peace, one long to be remembered
for its enjoyableness. As a class, the
chiefs of police throughout the coun-
try, are men of superior intelligence,
courage and high standing. They are
charged at times with responsibilities
of a, most weighty character. They
have trusts, both delicate and danger-
ous to perform, and as conservators of
good morals, the representatives in a
peculiar sense of law and order, they
rightfully command our respect and
regard.

Ofone thing', Norwalk will feel as-
sured, and that is. that no two cities in
the American Union will send better or
handsomer chiefs than Chiefs Bradley
and Volimer.

Extension Hearing.

The application of» the N orwalk Tram-
way company for a layout to the West-
port line via Maple avenue, was heard
before the Selectmen, yesterday after-
noon. The question of widening the
street was discussed. The Selectmen
reserved their decision in the matter.

Divorced.

Judge Prentice in the Superior court.
yesterday, granted a divorce to Estelle
Gerow of Georgetown from Andrew
Gerow of parts unknown, on the ground
of desertion. They were married Feb-
ruary 1887. '

Richard Williams of Stamford was
granted a decree from Elizabeth Wil-
liams, on the ground of infidelity.
They were married in 1888.

Never!

The Danbury News Speaks of Nor-
walk batters as a “sens1ble lot of peo-
ple.” True enough, but would they
have attracted the same amount of at-
tention but for that $100 they had been
furnished with to expend at the Dan-
bury hatters’ fair? As for Danbury
girls being so “vastly superior” to

 

 

those of Norwalk, Never! NEVER!
NEVER!

W‘as lnCendlary.
Mr. Burr Glover, this morning,

called at this office and stated that
the statement published in the GAZETTE
to the ‘eflect that the fire in, his shOp on
Thursday night was caused by the
stove igniting some shavings, was
erroneous, for the reason that no fire
had been in the stove that afternoon.

.Mr. Glover says that a window light

was broken out and a match dropped

among the shavings by an incendiary._

important Decision.

One of the most important decisions
affecting oystermen of the state that
has ever been rendered by the Superior
court was handed dowu by Judge Pren-
tice of the Superior court Friday. It
was in the case of George H. Shaffer
and Phoebe Shaffer against William B.
Reed trustee and Benjamin Moore.
The plaintiff through his attorney
James H. Olmstead moved a foreclosure
suit on a mortgage of oyster beds
owned by the defendant to secure a
note $6,000. The court holds that both
ground and the oysters can be mort-
gaged and he gave judgment to the
plaintiff.

Was it a Fit?

Shorlly before 2 o’clock this morning,
Captain Dann of the police was advised
that aman was in an unconscious con-
dition on Merwin street, near Academy.
The officer repaired to the scene with
Philip Petrie who had advised him of
the man’s plight. After taking him
from the center of the street to the
sidewalk, the Captain came back to a
livery stable and secured a carriage
and the man was taken to the hospital.
, There was a bad gash on his head
and a token of the cause of it in - his
pocket. The wound bled profusely but
was not of a serious nature.

His name is Joseph Henry and he is
well known as “one of the twins,” he
having a twin brother. It is believed
that he “met his friends” and indulged
too freely with the result that he be-
came dazed, lost his way and falling in
the street, without a care for anything.

He is threatened with pneumonia and
is in possession of a seriously frosted
right foot. Captain Daun reports that
he frothed at the mouth and showed
other symptoms of having, suffered a
fit.

 

Variety the Spice of Life.
There is nothing benefits mankind so
much as a change, even if its only a
change of linen. But what we mean to

convey is that too much of any one'

thing becomes monotonous. The clerk
tied for hours at his desk, seeks relaxa-
tion on his flying wheel ; the policeman
on his feet for hours (?), finds relaxa-
tion in an easy chair by his. or any
friend’s fireside; a man budgeted by a
shrew of a wife seeks relaXation by tilt-
ing a can over his head, and as the beer
disappears, he gazes with consolation
at his reflected countenance at the bot-
tom of the growler. Even at the theta
tre how many plays are monotonous
when all on the one theme ; how a bit
of sentiment is relieved by a hearty
laugh, a merry dance or comic son".
And it” “variety is the spice of life,” it
reaches perfection in' the great comedy,

 

“She Couldn’t Marry Three.”

A Great Success.

There are many remarkable successes
on the roadthis season, but none ex-
ceed the popularity enjoyed by the
latest New York success, “She Couldn’t
Marry Three.” Press and public ac-
cord it an ovation wherever presented.
The scenic effects are superb, the story
an intense and interesting one, unlike
the many unreasonable and- unnatural
plays with which the public are sur-
feited. It is full of hearty laughter,
bright and catchy music, the mOst
sensational climaxes. ' »

The company is one of the strongest
on the road, the . scenery the most
magnificent ever built, and as the cur-
tain rises on each act, prolonged ap-
plause attest the public appreciation of
each beautiful stage picture. The great.
scenic artiSt-s, Messrs. Daniel Crimmins
and Herbert Speck, feel justly proud
of their work on this production. ‘

but many people neglect taking any

when they will; like a tender flower in a

ed to overcome that prostration caused

and while it tones and sustains the sys~
tem it purifies and renovates the blood.

Church, in a court of equity, has granted
a temporary injunction against the Goth-

had no power to grant such a license.

‘ FROM l HE ' PUlPll.

PAINE’S CELERY COMPOUND HAS
MADE U8 WELL!

We Advise the Sick to Take it, Say
the Clergymen.

BE PREPARED FOR THE DANGER
SEASON OF SPRING.

Aggressive Christianity is Possible
With Health.

Pastors of All Scots Preach it East and West.

RAC'I‘ICAL Work
distinguishes the pul-
pit. Doctrinal ser-
mons to-day are at a
discount. Ministers
of the gospel, as if by
. a well-concerted
‘ plan,areDOWputting
. tremendous energy
.- into the cause of
" ‘gOod government
‘ . and public health.
'AgressiveChristiani.
_ ty seems to be the
pride of every de-

 
 
 

 

nomination.

Flat-chested, saliow-cheeked, , weak-
legged, watery’eyed clergyman are
scarce; strong vigorous, clear-headed,
manly fellows are entering the semi-
naries.

That a well man is a better man than
a sick one is no longer heresy.

Public baths, fresh air excursions,
open parks, sunlight, physical training
and proper medicines for the sick are
all contributing to the work of home
missions.

All sects appear to be entering with
unusual activity into a practical reform-
ation. Last week in Boston one of the
greatest of its pulpit orators preached
upon clean streets; in New York the
churches have been breaking up politi-
cal corruption. Money from the con-
tribution boxes is going into hospitals.
Many a young clergyman to-day takes
a year or more, not in a trip to Europe
to hear music and study cathedral
archilecture, and “round out- his edu.
cation,” but in a plain, matter-of-fact
medical school to learn anatomy and
hygiene. ' ~ ,

Most progressive ministers in every
denomination today are recommending
to their people the great remedy that
makes people well, earnestly indorsing
the work of Dartmouth college’s gens

“'erous scientist, and frankly, lending

their influence to that of the best phy

‘ sicians—advising generally the'use of
' Palne’s celery compound now, that the

“danger season of spring ’ is near.
The proprietors of this best of rem:

ted-fee now furnish a great quantity of
testimonials from clergymen in every

state, and almost every city and town
In the country, from which the follow:
ing are taken at random :

REV. CHARLES C. BRUCE.

From Somerville, Mass, Boston’s
wealthy suburb,Charles Cromber Bruce,
one of the ablest young pastors in the
state writes :

“I am nearly 38 years of age and
weigh normally 158 pounds, at present
my weight is 148%. My sickness took
me down to 1345, so that you can see
that I am getting back to myself, and,
God willing, shall soon be there.

“I have been avery sick man, but
owing to the goodness of the supreme

powers I am now on the royal road

whose end is perfect health.

“After 20 years of excessive labor in
studying and preaching, I was elected
to a position in a high school in Boston,
but the work told on me and I grew ill.
The illness lasted for about a year and
a half. But now I am so that I can see
the end. and a. more thankful man you
never saw. A gentleman who lived
near me began to use Paine’s cel-
ery compound and it built him up.
thought of this and soon I was led to
use it. and it has brought me out all
right.” .
ST. : THERESA’S ACADEMY.

Mother Theresa, writing from St.
Theresa’s academy, near Peoria, 111.,
says that they have given Paine’s celery
compound a thorough trial, and found
it to be all that is claimed for it. She
adds: “We shall continue its use and
also recommend it to our friends.”

REV. T. F. STAUFFER.

The following testimonial from a man
so widely known and beIOVed as Rev.»
T. F. Staufl'er, pastor of the Faith Re-
formed church of Lincoln, Neb., is a
most positive proof of the wonderful
medicmal power of Paine’s celery com-
pound and its great superiority over
ordinary sarsaparillas, tonics and nor-
Vines.

“Fornearly aysar past I have felt
myself running down. My nervous
system was gradually growing worse.
I had slight symptoms of rheumatism,
and was troubled a good deal at times
with insomnia. I felt that something
must be done, and concluded to use
Paine’s celery compound. After the
first few days’ use I began to improve,
and I am very much better now. In-
deed, I feel like myself once more. _ All
symptoms of rheumatism are disap-
pearing. I can sleep well, my nervous
system is rapidly improving, and I
believe a radical cure is being effected.
Paine’s celery compound is a splendid
remedy, and I can cOnscientiously com-
mend it to the suffering in like cases.

.I further believe that if this medicine
’were taken in time it would save many

heavy doctor’s bills. I have never used

a remedy of any kind that met its

promises so well and so readily.”
EDITOR OF THE GEORGIA BAPTIST.

Rev. W. J. White, D. D., editor of
the Georgla Baptist, says: “My wife
was in poor health. I think it a sort of
general debility which caused severe
attacks of heart palpitation. She was
favorably impressed with Paine’s celery
compound and procured it at once.
She felt benefited from the first bottle,
and I see a decided improvement which
is gratifying. “’9 have spoken of this
medicine to several friends, ahd several
have already used it upon our recom-
mendation.”

RECTOR OF ST. ANNE’S, NASHVILLE.

,ially so during the last two years.

Anne’s church at Nashville, gives his
people confidence in the great curative
powers of Paine’s celery compound.
He says; ,

‘fDuring the Lenten season last year,
which, on account‘ of multiplied ser-
vvwes, is very trying and laborious to a
clergyman, I became so rundown that
I feared’that I would not be able to
hold out to the end. Having seen ac-
counts of the efficacy of Paine’s celery
compound in similar cases, I concluded
to try‘it. I was soon delighted to find
that it gave me new vigor, and by the
use of one bottle, I was enabled to get
through the most laborious part of the
season, including Holy Week and
Easterday, with ease and comfort. I
attribute my relief to Paine's celery

hand and whenever I have a return of
the feeling of exhaustion from unusual
labor I take a few doses. always with a
pleasant sensation of relief.” .

THE UPPER IOWA CONFERENCE. '

' Among the many very able ministers
In the upper Iowa conference none is
better beloved by his church than Rev.
B. F. Berry. Read of the great good
that Paine’s celery compound did him.

“For three years I have suffered from
indigestion, constipation and bilious-
ness. I have, taken three bottles of
Paine’s celery compound and find my-
self wonderfully helped. I feel rested
now mornings, and no longer have any
tired and stupid feelings. Therefore I
take great delight in recommending
Paine’s celery compound to all suffer-
ing from these disorders ”

THE VENERARLE WILLIAM A, SMITH.

Rev. William A. Smith of Groton,
Conn.,‘after years of work, is still well
and active. He writes:

“In my early days, by great and pr 0-
longed mental suffering, I broke down
in health and became a dyspeptic, be
ing obliged at one time to give up my
work in the ministry on account of " ill-
health. I am now 83 years of age, and
during my life have suffered greatly
from dyspepsia, torpid liver, constipa-
tion and insomnia, at times thinking I
should die for the want of balmy sleep,
and it is a wonder to me that I am alive
today with all that I have been
through.

"‘I have tried an endless amount of
medicine, but lately I have been taking
Paine’s celery compound, and have all
faith in its merits as adapted to my
case. By the use of several bottles I so
far recovered my health as to consider
myself a well man for my age- It
regulates the liver, stomach and bowels
without any question. My appetite is
now good, my sleep is refreshing,- my
liver active and bowels regular, and my
crutches not needed, as I' can walk
without a stafl. 1 am daily increasing
in strength and. improving generally,
and hope that my youth will soon be
renewed so that I can work as in by-
gone days. People are surprised at
my improved appearance and activity.”

NEW YORK CITY CLERGYMEN. ,

Interviewed by a reporter in that
city the other day, a large number of
clergymen expressed the heartiest in-
dorsement of Paine’s celery compound.
The‘ interviews were published in the
World. Here are a few of-them : .

Rev. H. L. Granlienard,.pastor of
theFrench ,Presbyterianychurch, who
'lives at 143 West 16th st., said: “I

celery g-com'pound... Ifthink it a most

it whereverl have an Opportunity.” - ,

Rev. B. D'. Winn, pastor of the Abys-‘
sini'an church, said: ".My‘career as a
minister of the gospel has-been ham-
pered by the fact that for years I have
suffered from nervousness. I consult-
ed several specialists, who treated my
case for months, but I must say that dur-
ing the past few weeks I have received
more benefit from one bottleof Paine’s
celery compound than from al the
other medicines taken.”

The recent indorscments of the great
remedy by Rev. Fr. A. Ouellet,
Rev. Mr. Laird and other prominent
divines have so recently been published
that they are fresh in the public mind. ,

REV. G. A. EMORY. - .

Rev. G. A. Emory of Pittsfield, Vt.,
writes: “Paine’s celery compound is
the 'best medicine to be found and I
very cheerfully recommend it to all
who are in a run-down or exhausted
condition, I have twice used it with
most satisfactory results. For five years
my work has been very heavy, espec-
. My
conviction was that unless I found
something to help me I must 'give up
my work "as a minister, but I took
Paine’s celery compound and last year
came out all right, without a vacation
of so much as one Sunday. I recom-
mend it to all as a wonderful nerve re-'
storer.”

Rev. B. S. Crosby of Brushton, N. Y.
says : “It gives me great pleasure to
add my testimony to the effect of
Paine’s celery compound. For eight
years I have suffered great pain in my
back. Last April I was so weak‘and
nervous that I arranged to go to Mon-
treal for treatment, but three days be-
fore I expected to go a friend of mine
urged me? to take Paine s celery com(
pound. I went that day and bought a
bottle and commenced to take it, and
before I had taken the first bottle I was
free from pain in my back and could
sleep sound, and am now able to preach
every Sunday.

I will gladly answer any one who may
write to me about it. I trust your busi-
ness will continue to prosper until the

take Paine’s celery compound and be
rev1talized.” .
WAS CAUSED BY GRIP.

Rev. Dr. J. F. Hall of Mountville is
one of the best known- ministers in
southeastern Ohio. Mrs. Hall, whose
life was despaired of,‘was restored to
health by Paine’s celery compound.
She writes :

“I‘he grip made a 'wreck of my nat-
ural good health. I suffered from con-
tinual headache, which nothing re-
lieved, and from nervousness which
prevented sleep and caused melto have
palpatatiou of the heart when- startled
by- any unexpected noise or sound. I.
had distressing pains in my back and
side, was constipated, bilious and
sailow complexioned. My pulse was
very changable, sometimes quick and
at others scarcely perceptible, appetite
poor, with a feeling of languor and
weakness at times almost overcoming
me. It seemed as if every organ in my
body was diseased, and I was in despair
of ever being well again. At times the
grave seemed very near. I can never
describe my terrible sufferings, and it
would have been a great relief to have
exchanged worlds, but like every
mother, 1 would look upon my baby
boy and cling to life. '
