. An Artist Gone.

Worth, the famous Parisian fabri-
cator of _ costumes, is evidently not ap-
preciated by the press. He is in his
fame a victim of prejudice. The mere
phrase “man milliner” involves a con-
temptuous opinion, and he has been
commonly regarded as a sort of high
priest of extravagance and vulgar dis-
play in dress.

But he was an artist, and though‘he
did not invent nor originate anything
he worked in a legitimate sphere, and
in an artistic spirit, and with great suc‘
cess- If it is the finest Of fine arts to
reproduce in marble the forms of beau-
tiful women, or to display them on can-
vas, there must be some artistic dignity
in the pursuit which appeals to the
same sense Of the beautiful, but works
with the woman herself as part of the
fabric.

Worth systematized and elevated the
dressmaker's function, and some of his
greatest successes were reproductions
of the dresses of other days as found in
famous pictures. ._ He put brains into a
pursuit that was practically without it
when he came, and he has left imitators
who are apparently more successful
than he was himself. '

A Democratic Dance of Death.

Surely the Democratic party in Ten-
nessee is tired of life, of health and Of-
happiness. It must have become dis-
gusted with success, with the respect
and confidence of mankind, with titles,
honor and renown. The party leaders
are still telling, blindly and labori-
ously, along the discreditable pathway
of violence, fraud and usurpation at the
end of which they hope to find a right-
fully-elected Governor cheated of his
office. and a man who was not elected
at all invested with-the stolen goods of
power and authority.

It is now evident that the Tennessee
Democrats have gone quite mad, says
the Washington Post, and that they in-
tend to handicap the national Demo-
cracy next year with a weight of odium
which no political organization could
hope to carry. Evidently they are in-
diflereLt to every consideration save
that of clinging to the spoils of local
Office for the time being, and incapable
or contemptuous of any other thought,
The managers are still busy, destroy—
ing Mr. Evans’ majority, still holding
the fraudulent Governor in place while
' they perfect their unholy scheme of
lurcency. Every day or two we hear of
a new precint robbed of its franchise, a
new county divested of the prerogative
Of self-government, a new trick or out-
rage contributing to the general plan.
It is hard work—this thing of fabricat-
ing pretexts—«especially when the senti-
ment Of honest and reputable Demo-
crats is so strongly disapproving; but,
slowly, cbstinately, unfalt-eringly, they
are accomplishing it. Each week
brings them nearer to the goal. 'Each
fortnight hardens them to the lash of
their own conscience.

Perhaps it is a case of “Kismet”—
who knows? Perhaps the Fifty-third
Congress, which brought on the deluge
of 1804, was the rushing torrent of dis-
aster and repudiation to ‘which this
Tennessee scandal is only a feeble,
tributary rill. But the spectacle is not

a pleasant one, even if we regard it as .

a purely moral exhibition. It makes

one shudder with a foreboding of the

possibilities of party politics.

TheTramway Petition.

The petition of the Norwalk Tra’m-
way company praying fOr permission to
lay its track upon the Connecticut Turn.
pike frotharien to the Noroton River
bridge, has been signed by Selectmen
Klinefeltcr and Mackey of Darien.
Bemarking on the same the Stamford
Advocate says :-

It is a satisfaction to all those who
strenuously opposed having the tracks
laid in the center of the highway, to
know that at last the matter is settled.
Some disappointment has been ex-
pressed over the width Of wrought high-
way required by the conditions. Twice
the voters of the town had said they
wanted 26 feet. As it now stands, the
Tramway Company is required merely
to preserve the present width of
wrought highway. The fact that a new
element of danger will be introduced
by the running of trolley cars has ap-
parently been set aside as Of little con-
sequence, though it is not regarded as
of small importance by those who have
horses to drive. There is something
to be said, however, in defence of the
action of the Selectmen in this respect.
It has been made apparent that a large
majority of the voters want the trolley
road put through the town The Tram-
way Company positively refused to do
more than is now required.

If, then, the [Selectmen had still in-
sisted on the condition Of twenty-six
feet of wrought highway, their position
would have been no enviable one,
judging from the temper Of those who
felt that the original trolley committee
was so exacting as to kill the trolley
enterprise formerly proposed, and there
would doubtless have been much abuse
heaped upon them. But there is some
curiosity feltas to what use is to be
made of the the petition so diligently
circulated recently in favor of having
the tracks in the center of the highway.
It is said that 200 names are on it, yet
it has not been presented to the Select-
men. Is it to be treasured as a piece of
historical‘curiosity? Is it to be put on
file in the town clerk’s office as a stand-
ing protest? Or is it designed for some
mysterious legislative purpose? Per-
haps the fact that some whose names
were signed to to the petition now re-‘
gret that they were ever signed inas-
much as they claim they were the vic-
timsof a misapprehension, may have
helped to keep it in seclusion.

State Liquor Dealers.

Ameeting of representatives of the
State Liquor Dealers association was
held in New Haven, Tuesday, for the
purpose of discussing a number of im-
portant matters relative to the welfare
of the association throughout the state.
It is understood that the dealers will
take active steps before the legislature
to offset any steps taken by the drug-
gists which will tend to injure the re-
tail liquor trade. Bepresentatives were
present from every town'in the state,
among the number being John Malone,
Of this city.

 

A Nuisance Abated..
Complaint was made to health officer
Dr. W. J. Tracy, of a nuisance in the
yard on Isaacs’ street and back of the
Mead bakery. Photographs were
taken showing the place to be in a ter-
rible filthy condition. By order of the
health officer' some sixteen or more
barrels of the filth were carted away,
and Messrs. Jackson and Vogel, and
the employees at the National Bank of
Norwalk and the Fairfield County Sav-
ings bank. and Norwalk Hour Office
now breath an air that is comparatively
free of death dealing germs. It is not
altogether unlikely that like conditions

exist in other parts of our city.

Reunion.

A reunion of the C. B. P. E. ,C. was
held at the home Of Miss Hattie L.
Hubbell on West avenue, Tuesday

 

 

 

evening. About thirty persons were
present. The evening was one of

pleasure to all, and it was midnight
when the last of the guests reluctantly
departed. A number of prizes were
awarded and a luncheon served.
Want a Change.

Nearly every city in the State has pe-
titioned the present Legislature for
amendments suggested being so radical
as to make the petitions practically re-
quests for new charters. A comparison
of the various instruments submitted
shows a wide diversity of opinion on
the management of municipalities.

O

' A Good Bill.

A bill has been favorably reported in
the General Assembly prohibiting the
the docking of horses tails. There is
a law on the Statute books that requires
that persons who wed in this state shall
secure a license. Some p’eople evade it
by stepping over into New York state.

" THE TRENTON SCANDAL... .1

Mullins & Co.’s Mutilated Books—Young
Abbott’s Furniture; 1 .

’TRENTON, March*1s."—'-—'The senate inves-
tigating connnlttco resumed its sittings in
the senate chamber today, With all the
members of the committee present. Coun-
sel Corbin began the search for extrava-
gance by stating to the committee the re-
sults of his careful examination of the
mutilated books of John Mullins & 00.,
the Jersey City furniture dealers who sup<
plied the state with so much furniture
during Ford’s administration and about
which such interesting testimony was giv-
en last Friday. Mr. Corbin stated that
out of one cashbook there were missing,
241 pages, out of another 376 and out of.
still another 488. These pages covered
substantially the period between the mid-
dle of 1892 and the close of 1893, and dur-
ing that'pcriod most of the supplies were
furnished to the state. One salesbook had
missing 90 pages and another 378 pages,
occupying the same period. In the ledger
there were 34 pages missing, but the index
showed that there were 20 accounts on
these pages, and among them was the
Statehouse account.

John Mullins was called to produce his
private ledger and some other books which
he had been subpoenaed to produce. Mr.
Mullins brought several books, but not the
private ledger containing his bank account
with the First National bank of Jersey
City. When asked where that book was,
he said that he had brought alltho books he
had any knowledge of.

The clerk, Murphy, was again called to
the stand and wont over the mutilated
pages, referring to the out stubs,_ and
showed that many entries had been made
since he had left the establishment. .Then‘
Mr. Corbin took up various items which
he asked the witness to find in the sales-
books. First came a bill for sponges in
the account presented by A. I. Reilly for
Ford, purchased of Mullins. The books
showed that tho sponges cost $45, but
Mullins’ books sliowcd that no charge was
made. Reilly’s bill, however. when re-
ferred to, revealed that these sponges cost
the state 8121.25.

Then followed a. number of items to
which the name of Leon Abbott, J r., was
attached. An oak Cask and a rolling top
chair shipped to Abbott’s Broadway office,
New York city, cost the state 3102, as
shown by the state’s bill. A senate chair
and oak desk shipped to the same oflico
cost 8118. ' An armchair and four cherry
chairs shipped to him in Hoboken cost the
state 813.83. Other articles of furniture
sent to the Second National bank of HO-
bokcn for Mr. Abbott cost the state 0011-,
siderably more than the amount charged
on ’Mullins 85 Co. ’5 books; Then came
45 yards of wilton carpet, with border and
lining, for the private office Of. Mr. Abbott,
for which the state was charged 8320.80.

VrcyronrA, 319.; March 1.3.—Nanaimd* ,

has forthe past munth been" the scene Of a
pitched battle between Rev. McRae, pas-
tor of the Presbyterian church, and E.
Dean, city editor of the Nanaimo Free
Press. The minister posed as a local Park-
hurst and announced sensational themes,
drawing crowded houses. In the pulpit,
however, he fought shy of his subjects, his
courage failing him. The Free Press ad-
vised him to “discontinue his fake ad-
vance notice or deliver the goods he con- ‘
tracted to supply. ” Then came a declara-
tion of war between them; Mr. McRao
preached upon the unrighteous preset He
denied thc'right Of any paper to criticise a.
minister of the gospel, who was a ”serv-
ant of God, ” and, spying City Editor
Dean in the congregation, pointed the fin-
ger of scorn at. him and proceeded to. ar-
raign him for almost all the crimes in the
calendar. For a full hour and 40 minutes
he poured out a torrent of invcctivo against
Dean, whom he mentioned by name re:
peatedly and the paper with which he is
connected.

His text that evening happened to be a
verse from St. Paul’s epistle to theRo-
mans, “If it be possible. as much as lieth in
you, live peaceably with all'men.” 1 Such
teaching was all very well in a general
way, the pastor informed his congrega-
tion. There were times, however, when
one had to demonstrate that he was not a
sheep, and this was one Of them. He
wished. every one present to understand
that he had no hesitation in taking up the
gauntlet as the champion of the church
against the liccntious. sensational, soul
staying press—in fact, such .a‘ contest
found him in his element. He held that
as a general rule not a paper on the Pa-
clflc coast was fit fora decent man to read,
much less a womanly woman, and so
thoroughly rotten was the paper in ques.
tion that one might as well talk of reform-
ing the devil as of purifying it. What was
wanted was to kill the present newspaper
and build up better ones upon a standard
of religious and scientific education.

Such a rabid, immoderatc and ill tem~
pered address was probably never before
listened to in an American church, and the
congregation by turns laughed and hissed
'at him. The editor preferred charges
against McRac to his presbytcry, which
complaint was, dismissed, and Dean ap-
pealed to the church synod and has com-
menced a civil suit for slander against the
minister, summOning practically the en-
tire congregation to the witness box.

Proposed Terms For Confederation.

Sr. J OHN’s, N. F., March 13.—-—The dole-
gates who are going to Canada in order to
confer with the Dominion government on
the question of confederation leave here
by the steamer Grand Lake. The terms to
be submitted bythe Newfoundland dele-
gates are $700, 000 for the administration
of the local government and civil service
departments, $1,000, 000 for harbor im-
provements, steam and mail service, rall-
roads, etc., and Newfoundland to have
power by a plebiscite to accept or refuse
confederation.

The San Francisco Insurance “’31-.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 13,—The insur-
ance situation has been further complicat-
ed by a difference between Mann & Wil—
son’s city agents. ' Under the rules of the
new compact abolishing city agents the
members of the firm of Hagan & Co. were;
offered places as salaried canvassers. The
city agents declined, whereupon Mann &
Wilson seized Hagan 8.: Co.’s books. Ha-
gan & CO. arranged for reinsurance and
announced a. cut of 60 per cent in present
rates. '
