One of the most memorable mar- riages in so—ealled- high life was cele- brated at noon to-day, and two happy persons are reasonably sure that they have drawn great prizes in the famous matrimonial lottery. From the best standpoint, that of the proper afliliation of man and woman, it is an equal match. De Castellane, as seen in the newspaper portraits. is a good-looking young gentleman, and no doubt a man of sufficient cultivation and gentlemanly impulses ; while Miss Gould is a clever girl, personally pre- possessing, and not the victim of any family tyranny or coercion. The ages are suitable, so there is none of the January and May business. Nor is there any other evident obstacle. Perhaps half the young fellows in Nor- walk would be glad enough to get $2,- 000.000 for marrying a pretty girl, and perhaps half the pretty girls could be easily persuaded to marry a handsome count, not known to be vicious. do. The Deadly Trolley. The New York state Board of Rail— road Commissioners has been looking into some of the awful casualties inci- dent Ito I trolley management in Brook- 1,711, and has made some recommenda- tions which will commend themselves t1 all people except, perhaps, the d1— rectors of the trolley companies. Among Other precautions, it is rec- ommended that the speed of cars while crossing streets shall not exceed four miles an hour; that speed shall be re- dieed to the minimum at all curves where the view is obstructed ; that no- where, even in the suburbs, shall the speed exceed twelve miles an hour, and that no one shall be on the front plat- form 10 distract the attention of the man at the wheel. Another most important recommen— (Illthll is that an efficient guard or safety fender shall be attached to each c.1r. 'I'hc companies are urged notto Wait until a perfect fender is devised, but to get the best in use at present, and improve upon them if possible. At the same time, says the Board, the intention of railway officials and em- ployee should be that while the cars may be equipped with the best fenders proourablc, they should also be so Operated as to make the use of the fender unnecessary. ooo~ Recent Deaths.

Some four or five weeks ago, some one stole a hand—sled from Dr. Bald. win’s dooryard. The theft was re~ ported to Chief Bradley who ferretted out the fact that an Italian lad named Scappello was an interested party to the theft. Scappello on being inter- viewed said that a boy named “Tom” Kelly stole the sled and sold it. This morning the chief arrested Kelly who claimed that Scappello was the thief and that he had been given but one slide on the sled. The Itallian has also been placed under arrest and this eve- ning both lads will be given an oppor- tunity to untangle the puzzle as to which or who stole the sled. Special News.

COO— BROAD RIVER. Reports current in Broad River and vicinity of the return of Elder Parsons, of whom much'has been said, to con- tinue his labors, was fully realized by his reappearance and preaching at the school house Friday night. The follow- ing evening a co-Jaborer in the person of ElderF. M. Sheehy of Boston, who is also the presiding elder of the Massa~ chusetts District of the Church of the LatterDay Saints, was prescnt. We learn from the elder that the state dis- trict contains ten or more churches of the denomination in a fairly prosperous condition. Elder Sheehy preached in the school house Saturday night using fora text, “I Perceive that God is no Respecter of Persons. But in every Nation he that Beareth Him and Work- eth Righteousness is Accepted with Him.” He used numerous passages of the Bible to show that God accepted all who worship Him in “spirit and in truth” which worship be defined as being in truth when it is in harmony with the Bible which contains God's word. “In vain do you worship me teaching for doctrine the command- ments of men,” was the Saviour’s arraingment of the sectarians of his day which the speaker said was in force to- day when men made void the word of God by their traditions; that many now cared more about their paIticular de- nominationalism than they did the truth, as witness the effort now going on in certain creeds to maintain the belief in infant damnation and total depravity, etc. He urged the necessity of all being governed by the Bible truth no matter how it might cut into cher- ished and preconceived ideas. Sunday at 10. 30, a fair sized audience greeted Elder A. H. Parsons, when he preached from the 16 chapter and 31 verse of Acts, “Believe on Ithe Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.” He endeavored to prove that a nominal belief was at a discount in the teaching of Christ, that character was formed by doing and not Simply a belief. “Not even one that saith unto me Lord, Lord shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven but he that death the will of our father in Heaven.” To do as Christ commanded required repentance and baptism and the laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost. He criticised the sentiment in certain poetry which teaches “that doing is a deadly thing ye cannot do at all.” The meetings will be continued dur- ing this week at Broad River and Silver Mine. A movement is under way to build a chapel in the near future at Broad River and subscriptions are now being made for it. There are tobe more baptisms also, ere long. At last night’s services there were nearly one hundred persons present. . , I BoiId nobberyi . Abraham Lebenthal’s clothing store .in Bridgeport, was broken into Sunday evening, and six coats and a pair of trowsers were stolen. The thieves gained entrance by breaking out a front window.

President Charles Rohrbach of the BridgeportConcordia Society was fined by Judge Car-r01 $30 and costs Saturday for keeping a place where liquors were reputed to be sold and his “agents,”~~the waiters at the ball which caused all the trouble, were fined $20 and costs each. ’ "Doncherknow .” Saturday afternoon, a bakery vehicle belonging to Fred Mead was wrecked on East avenue by the breaking of the king-bolt. To a Gazn r'rE reporter Mr. F. Gordon Mead(e) vouchsafed the sur- prising information t-hat no damage had he thought beendone, ‘ ‘tinlcss the horse had lost a shoe. Or something like that; nothing to put in print, doneher- know.” As a matter of fact it was aw- fully sloppy walking. —oOOA—- Knocked Out. Plumber W. C.

Fire at Rowavton. A place kept by a man named “Chris” Larsen, and “dubbed” as the “Old Homestead” was burned to the ground shortly after 12 o’clock last night. Mr. Larsen had applied fora license but there were a number of re- mIonstrants, and so far as we can learn no license had been granted. The fire destroyed the building and contents and the destruction seems to have been complete. A friend of Mr. Larson’s places the latters loss at $1,600. The building was owned by Alexan- der Raymond upon which there is an insurance of $1, 500. Larsen held an insurance on his stock for $800 and $400 on furniture. «*- He is In Clover. The following letter from Hubert E. Bishop who sailed on the steamer La- Tourame will be of interest to our readers. It was written, from Nice, Feb. 20th to his uncle W. F. Bishop of this city: Grand Hotel Chateau Baumettes, Nice, Feb. 20th 1895.—It is just two weeks to—day since leaving home but we have had many varied experiences in that short time. The voyage was rough and stormy and it rained every day for a week. The second day out was especially rough and nine out Of every ten persons were sick, myself' 1n- cluded. l was all right the next day, however, and have been feeling much bettensince. We reached the Azores on the 6th day and steamed into the harbor of Fayal so as to give us a view of the town, but did not leave the ship as Pinta Delgado. was to be the first stopping place. The latter was some thirty-five miles distant and by the time we reached it the wind had increased to hurricane force making it impossible to land. We therefore went direct to Lisbon, and, in spite of rain one minute and sunshine the next, managed to see the city thoroughly No one regretted having gone there as all were most agreeably suiprised, including many old travellers who said that it Was as fine as any European city not excepting Paris. It's is, however, so far out of the way, and so little known that It is sel- dom visited by tourists. After twelve hours journey Gibralter was reached and all went ashore and saw the forti- fications and shops, leaving in the even~ ing for Barcelona. En route to the latter place, we steamed very close to, the shore, being enabled to do so by the fact that the mountains rise abrupt- ly from the sea. At times we were no more thana quarter of a mile from shore and in this way we saw many towns which were very interesting. Sunday was spent 1n Barcelona but no one would have suspected the day as_ everything was going on as usual. 1n the afternoon, however, the whole town was parading up and down the avenues and one could easily imagine that he was on Fifth avenue. There was just as much style and the streets themselves certainly compared very favorably with the latter thoroughfare. It is on the whole a very up to date city. Marseilles, the next point, is a shipping and manu- facturing city with nothing of conse- quence to see. We left the steamer at that point, and after visiting Games, Nice and Monte Carlo we Will rejoin her at Villefrance. We are at Nice t1- day and as to-morrow the Carnival of Flowers will be held, the city is very much crowded. We, however, leave early in the morning for a. fifteen mile drive along the shores of the Mediter- ranean to Monte Carlo and Mentone at which latter place will spend the night, and sail for Naples the following day. The service on board is very good and everything very comfortable. We have an excellent orchestra and nearly every evening while on board there is an en- tertainment provided by a committee appointed by the passengers for that purpose. The evenings are thus passed very pleasantly, The ladies have all been out shopping to- day and as read- ing, writing and sitting room is all in one, the amount cf noise is amply sufii cient to keep a fellow from thinking what he is writing about.

This morning, John Brotherton, aged 19~ years, “sprung a surprise” on his mother, Mrs. Theodore Brotherton, at the breakfast table, by staying, “Mam- ma, I was married last night.” Not seeing any wife around, his mother asked for a further explanation, and elicited the information that in com- pany with Miss Florence Lockwood he had the night before visited the resi—. of a clergyman in Pound Ridge, N. Y., and had been duly and legally “tied up” to the young lady of his choice. In answer to the query as to where his wife then was, he replied, “ I guess she has gone to work.” Some time since Mr. Brotherton met Miss Lockwood at a ball in the Armory where he'had charge of the soda water stand. At the 01059 of the ball he ac- companied her to the home of her mother, Mrs. Charles Tanner on Knight street. For some reason they were re- fused admittance, and Mr. Brotherton gallantly asked her to’ go to his home, reaching which he provided her with an easy. chair in the parlor and retired to his‘ room without mentioning to any- one in the house that there was a guest present. Miss Lockwood went to work as usual the next morning and no one in the house was any the wiser for her having spent the night'therc. Later, however, the story leaked out with the result of the finale at Pound Ridge, Sunday evening. Mrs. Brotherton will probably take up her residence with her mother-ins» law, Mrs. Theodore Brotherton, w1th' out regard to the happiness or unhap-- piness of Mrs. Tanner. “They are welcome” said Mrs. Brother'ton. to a GAZETTE reporter, this morning, “but I haven’ t seen them yet ’1 . Hartford Birds Won. A cocking main was held at Water- bury early Sunday morning between Hartford and Waterbury birds, the former birds winning ten of the eleven battles. Talked to. the Point. Last evening, at'the Chapel of Our Holy Saviour, Rev. Mr. Pond preached a plain and practical sermon in refer- ence to the proper observance of the Lenten season by his parishioners. He couched his remarks in no uncertain words, and while perhaps there were those present who winced, what he said will no doubt have the desired effect. The Rambler. The J. T. Prowitt company has an adv. in another column, which will prove of special interest to the many hundreds of people who propose pur- chasing abicycle.

I WASHINGTON, Marcln4.——The'debatc in congress on the subject of an international monetary conference shows that it is not generally understood that the last mone- tary conference has never been formally dissolved and that the commission on the part; of the United States to that confer- ence is really still 1n existence.

Modjeska had been for- bidden by the Russian government to ap- pear at the Warsaw theater because of a ' lecture on the oppression of the Poles, de- livered by her during the World’s fair, was not a surprise to Ralph Modjeska, son of the well known actress, who lives in this city. _ In a letter just received by him, Mme. IModjcska writes: “The Russian government is forbidding me to play in Poland. I must tell you how this happened. While I was in Posen a proposition was made to give two per- formances 1n Kalish as a benefit for Polish political prisoners. 0n the day before the performance was to have been given the manager of the theater was notified that the police had orders to prohibit my ap- pearance Now, this only serves to make me more determined than ever to go to Warsaw itself and make plans for a. per- formance there.
