The News yesterday published a description of the new steamboat, that .the New York and Norwalk Steamboat company is to place on the route between South Norwalk and New York, next month, and editorially says that, “the News which furnishes its slow contemporaries with. important cues to news gives the public the infor- mation tO-day that a new steamboat has been constructed for the Norwalk and New York Steamboat company and will be placed on the Norwalk route the coming seasOn.” If our inexperienced neighbor will look at the GAZETTE of December 11th, 1304, he will find a description of this new boat, together with all the facts of it 3 being placed on the Norwalk route, that corresponds so nearly with that re- h-ished by the News yesterday, that he would be convicted of piracy even be- fore Justice Keeler. Country Roads. This is the season in which the farmer discoviers no roads in his section fit to revel on, and realiZes also that the Selectmen chosen the year before are just as bad as the roads. Country highways are never worse than in the spring. Betiveen frost and moisture the mixture on the roadbed is either mud or mortar, and this must dry away as soon as the sun finds time to do the work of the Selectmen, as there usually is no drainage. One Of the fine Effects is to quarantine the country against the thu, as few farmers will risk breaking that sort of blockade.” It means ruin the loss of the for perhaps team and in some instances death or wagons, injury to the farmer. And yet farm—holders, tenants and laud-holders are content that things They in shall continue in this strain. allow the Selectmen to persist shoveling and scraping earth and stuff from the bed when the only t) see it washed back again by storm and flood, and they shut]. op- p ist to any system of public road im- provement to be paid fdr out of their own pockits, in face of the fact that it is just that sort of improvement. that provides the best kind of insurance to stock and prOperty.

Captain Burling D. l’ardy, one of New Canaan’s best known citizens died on lMonday night, in the eighty-third year of his age. The deceased had been a resident of New Canaan for more than halfacentury, and in one way or another, especially in political affairs, was always a conspicuous figure in that community. He served as Se- lectman of the town for many years, and as Justice of the Peace, Grand Juror, 610., and two or three times was elected to the Legislature in Democrat- is years. He commanded a company in the old state militia, and there obtained the title of Captain. He was a char- ter member of Wooster Lodge, I. O. O. F., and was always a devoted and popular member of that organiza- tion. A son anda daughter survive him. ._._..._————..._ That $3,000. The other day George L.

Booth and Mead Each Placed Under $300 Bonds. The case of the State vs. George W. Booth was continued before Justice Rose at the Isaacs street court room Tuesday afternoon. Booth is charged with keeping a house of ill fame. The details of his arrest, with the occupants and visitors at his house'cn West Rocks road, have already been thoroughly ventilated. The cOurt room‘ was crowded. The air in the room was hot and almost stifling, if not indeed vitiated to the extent of disease breeding. There was little or no ventilation. Nevertheless the crowd “held the fort” until the hour of adjournment, and not one was there but who on leaving the room did not seemingly snuff the fresh air out- side with a degree of satisfaction. The testimony of'several witnesses, on the part of the State was taken by Prosecuting Attorney Lockwocd, and each witness was subjected to a close cross examination by the attorney for the defense, Mr. John J. Walsh. Among the witnesses examined touch- ing on the allegations in the charge were, Mr. and Mrs. John Porter, Daisy Porter, Fred Porter, Mrs. Sam- uel Holley, Frank Crowther and Simeon B. Keith, most of whom gave damaging testimony to at least the reputation of the house. 7 In the instance of Mr. Crowther he made a stitement to the effect that he had of a Sunday seen a dozen or more intoxicated people in the vicinity of the house occupied by Booth and his alleg- ed paramour. He, and also other wit- nesses, testified as to the reputation of the house as trending to be that of ill fame. ‘ As will be remembered, among those arrested at the time of the raid, were Harry Gage and a man named George Gregory on the charge offrequenting a house reported or alleged to be a house of ill fame. During the hearing of the testimony of the above mentioned wit- nesses it was whispered through the vitiated air of the room that both Gage and Gregory had, so to Speak, “turned state’s evidence,” a whisper that resolv- ed itself into a sound that could be plainly heard by all, shortly after Gage took his seat in the witness chair. ; ‘ In the direct examination of Gage, by Attorney Lockwood, in which the witness was skillfuly catechized, con- siderable information derogratory to Booth and apparently in favor of the state was elicitatcd. Gage in substance testified that he had'been a visitor at the alleged resort which he knew as the Booth house. He had seen intoxicants on sale there; had called a number of times; had met others there; had seen women go upstairs in the house with men; had heard the place talked about and also heard that one of the former inmates was in a delicate condition while at the house; the house had the reputation of being a tough place, etc. Before taking the witness in hand for Attorney Walsh- with apparent surprise, mixed with no small amount of indignation, stated to the court that he was placed in a pe- culiar position, as he had been retained to defend Gage, but now found his client on the side of the prosecution. He then proceeded to give Gage a scathing examination. He first asked him as to what had been offered him by the prosecution to change his plea from “not guilty” to “guilty.” He elicited the information from Gage that he had plead guilty and that judgment had been suspended. Gage denied that he was a witness for the prosecution, but that he had de- cided to act as he did after being told by an officer “that he was a fool to put himself in a hole for anyone else,” and that he now proposed telling the truth about the whole matter. No promise had been held out to him for his action. Objection being made to some of the questions asked the witness by Mr. Walsh, the witness escaped with a last shot or question which he indignantly denied. Simeon R. Keith testified in an ex- pressive manner that the reputation of the house was bad, and got away with but one pointed question on the cross- examination, which he satisfactorily answered. The court then announced that an adjournment would be takeuunti19230 o’clock, this morning, at which time none but witnesses and those directly interested in the proceedings would be admitted. A comparatively small and orderly crowd assembled at the court room this morning to listen to the resumption of the case. . George Gregory, who had with Gage pleaded guilty to frequenting a house reputed to be of ill fame, was the first witness called. His testimony went to substantiate that of Gage and the other witnesses. Fred Hart was placed on the stand in his own behalf and stated that he visited the place on the night he was arrested, for the purpose of collecting a bill. RESULT OF mi; RlllD.

"The arguments of the. attorneys for prosecution and defense, were on tech- nical points of law. ~ ~ The court then placed George W. Booth and Annie Mead under $300 bonds each for trial in Bridgeport, on the charge of keeping a house reputed to be of ill fame. Ida Davis Hoyt was fined 37 and costs for resorting to. the 'same house. Fred Hart was given a nominal fine of $1 and costs for fre- quenting the resort, and the trials of Gregory and Gage postponed for one week. ‘ _ Booth and his paramour, Annie Mead, were taken to jail in default of obtain- ing bonds, as was also Ida Hoyt who was unable to pay her fine. .0 Please Except Norwalk. _ Stamford banks seem to be about the only ones in the state which have not suffered from the great Coffin-Stanton failure.—Advccate.

Tuesday afternoon, during the heighth of the snow-squall, there might have been seen, in fact there was seen, a black horse hitched t) a business wagon trying to keep pace with the, wind in making a circuit of what is known as the “church green.” And right hard did he contest for the honors. fter making one circuit of the green, the animal seemed to consider himself out of the race and ran into the door- yard and around a house on the west side of the Green, and thence to the S. B. S. Bissell place where he threw himself down into the street. Here he was cared for by the parties who had driven him over from Bridgeport. The turnout belonged to Sexton of the Sexton Marble Works in that city. The damage done would not require three figures to print it. Two or three teams, however, had narrow escapes from coming into collision with the runaway. coo Amusements. HOYT’S OPERA HOUSE. While Mr. Underhill’s agent was working up an interest in the series of recitals which was so admirably launch- ed on the 10th inst. he was often met with the remark “I don’t care much for Shakespeare, but I shall go to the second one any way,” and indeed, many have looked upon “The Rivals” as the gem of the course. They will not be disappointed. for Mr. Underhill is thoroughly at home in all the parts and there is no flaw from beginning to end. The humor of it is simply irresis- tible, and as a specimen of character impersonation it is perfect. Tuesday, April 2nd is the date. — HOYT’s OPERA HOUSE. The Hartford Courant says of “Prince Pro Tem.” which appears at Hoyt’s Opera House next Monday night: “Lively in dialogue, bright in music and amusing in situation “Prince Pro Tom” could not fail to please. The musical fantasia as the program calls it was warmly greeted at Proctor’s last night when encores followed almost all the musical numbers. R. A. Barnet has repeated in the book the successes he made with “1492” and “Tabasco,” but without repeating himself. He has inade the present piece on entirely new mes. . The central idea is that the Prince of Fogia, by the laws of the country must pay the penalty for all crimes and offenses committed by his subjects. He tires of this and looks around for some one to reign a. while in his stead. The _ person -is found in Tommy Tompkins, a New Jersey collector of animals and freaks. Most of the action occurs while this Prince pro tem occu- pies the throne. Ac the Prince Pro Tem, Fred Lennox showed himself an entertaining comedi- an, a good singer and an easy, natural act-or. His chief assistant in the merry _making was Miss Josie Sadler, whose, comical ways received appreciative ap- plause.

Alisa autumn The German Emperor iPays Marked Honor to Prince Bismarck. AN INTERESTING CEREMONY. The Youthful Crown Prince. “’38 Fomnally Presented to the “Iron Chancellery” Who \Vas Also Made the Recip- ient of a. Handsome Sword. FRIEDRICHSRUH, March 27.—Emperor William today, at the head of a detach- ment .of cavalry, infantry and artillery, with colors flying and bands playing, paid his respects to Prince Bismarck, presented him with a sword of honor in behalf of the army and congratulated him upon nearing the eightieth anniversary of his birthday. His majesty was accompanied by the crown prince, Frederick William; General Bronsart von Schellandorf, the minister of war, and the officers of his military house- hold. Thc ceremonies attending the visit of the emperor to the great chancellor, though marred by showersof rain, were brilliant and imposing. . _ All the approaches' to the castle were guarded by police, the local force of gen- darmes being re-enforced by 51 picked po- licemen from Berlin. but the crowds roam- ed at will through the Sachsenwald, and nearly 1,000 persons gathered behind a low hedge on the railroad embankment op- posite the castle, While others were grouped along the roadway to Aumuchle, a village not far from Friedrichsruh, and waited patiently in the drenching showers for the arrival of the emperor. » His majesty and his suit left Berlin on a special train at 8:20 for Fricdrichsruh, but he did not travel the whole way . here by train, preferring to alight at Aumuehle, Where be mounted a horse, and accom- panied by the ofliCcrs of his military house- hold and attended by a brilliantly unl- fo'rmed staff rode quickly to thé’spot se- lected for the assembling of the troops who had been detailed to do honor to Prince Bismarck. Blsmarck’s Regiment Drawn Up. In the meanwhile the imperial train, with the crown prince. proceeded to Fried- richsruh, and soon after the latter’s ar- rival here, so perfect were the arrange- ments, music in the distance announced the approach of the cavalcadc. headed by his majesty. When the emperor arrived at the point of assemblage of the troops from Au- muchle railroad station, 110 found drawn up. ready fOr his inspection, a squadron of the Hacberstadt culrassic I of which regi- ment Princc Bisjliarck, as honorary colo- nel, wore the uniform yesterday; the Seventy-sixth regiment~ of infantry, a squadron of the Fifteenth hussars, all with colors flying, with their regimental bands in attendance; and a battery of the H01- stein artillery regiment. _ With the emperor at its head this force was'm’arched to ancpcn Space" in Prince Bismarck’s park, and upon arrival there the troops were deployed in parade order. The approach of his majesty was the signal for a. storm of “Hochs” which rent the air, and which were taken up on all sides with great enthusiasm, for there is no doubt that the emperor’s graceful trib- ute to the great German statesman, fol— lowing so cloQJ-after the strange action of the reicllstag in refusing to congratulate Prince Bismarck on his birthday, has won hearty approval from many quarters. Owing to tho douse foliage of the trees in the park and neighborhood, the troops were not seen until they actually emerged upon the parade ground. The crown prince and his suit, includ- ing General Count vcn Walderseo, had in the meantime walked to the parade ground, ~ and as the emperor appeared on one side Prince Bismarck’s carriage emerged upon the ground from the other side. The prince .wore the uniform of the Haebef- stadt cuirassiers. When his majesty caught sight of the prince, he spurred his horse forward, and sitting gracefully in his saddle rode at a fast canter to the carriage of the veteran statesman and soldier and cordially shook hands with him. The emperor then pre- sented the crown prince and his suit to Prince Bismarck. An Imposing Spectacle. The latter took the young prince into his carriage, and. with the emperor riding behind it, and General von Waldersee walking beside it, the carriage was driven down the lines of soldiers, the officers sa- luting, the troops presenting arms and the bands playing patriotic airs as the prince and empgror passed. His majesty took up a position in front of the troops and delivered an address of congratulation to the prince. Then, in the name of the‘army, the emperor presented Prince Bismarck with a sword of honor of antique form, richly embossed and inlaid With gold. In presenting the sword Emperor Wil- liam, referring to the presence of the cui- rassiers. said that he handed him the gift in recognition of his deeds, adding: ‘ “I could not have found a better present than a sword. Whether as the weapon of the ancient Germans or as a symbol of never failing resource, and upon it are on- graved the united arms of the reichsland. May your serene highness look upon this as a. token of gratitude for deeds recorded- in history which were brought to a conclu- sion 25 years ago. Let us, comrades, shout a hurrah for his serene highness Prince Bismarck, duke of Lauenberg. ” When the inspection was over, Prince Bismarck went to his house, stood on the terrace, from which he addressed the ,reichstag and landtag delegations yester— day, and the emperor led the cuirassiers past the front of the house and back again. Lunclled lVith Bismarck. His majesty afterward entered the Schloss and lunched with Prince Bis- marck, the cuirassiers mounting guard outside the building and the artillery re- maining as a guard of honor on‘ the parade ground. From that spot the artillery fired salutes when the signal was given that the emperor had proposed the health of Prince Bismarck. At the luncheon Emperor William pre- sented Prince Bismarck with a seal from the writing table of his grandfather, Em- peror William I. The railroad station, postoflice and all- the houses of Friedrichsruh and its neigh- borhood were decorated with flags in honor of the emperor’s visit and the occasion of it. ‘ » ~ President Norton on Trial; BROOKLYN, March 27. —The trial of President Benjamin Norton and Superin- tendent Quinn of the Atlantic Avenue rall— .‘ way for violation of the ten hour law was begun before Judge Moore in the court of sessions.
