O
Satisfied at Last.
We are pleased to announce that the
News is at last satisfied that the state-
ment made by the GAZETTE, relative to
the checking of seats for the athletic
entertainment was correct and it has
Withdrawn from the controversy.
Our ybung neighbor did not admit
in a manly way its erroneous position,
nor retract the ungentlemanly charge
of falsehood it made against the GA-
ZETTE, but after interviewing Mr. Pot-
ter and ascertaining the GAZETTE’s
statement to be true, it crawfishesas
follows:
“The Daily News has declared its
position at length and the GAZETTE has
finally presented its views in such a
formvt‘hat we do not care to take any
exceptions thereto. As further agila'
tion is not likely to throw any light on
the subject and as we are very busy
making out our income tax returns, we
shall! drop the subject of the athletic
entertainment chart.”
In again extending to the News the
assurance of our distinguished consid-
eration, we add that the GAZETTE was
notlborn yesterday.
________<+>——
Wave of Crime.
The wave of crime, spreading over
the country appears to» be phenomenal.
For some of these crimes the causes are
easily seen; but "for others, there is
hardly an cXplanation. The general
depression has had the tendency of
making the ignorant desperate. In-
apable of, reasoning from cause to
efiect, they have allowed the untamed
brute to assert itself. From this class
comes the train-robber, the burglar,
the murderer for money, and the petty
thief. Under different auspices, many
of these criminals would have remain—
ed honest and respectable members of
society.
The other class of criminals, who
have heretofore occupied honorable
positions, such as bank cle:ks, cashiers
and others who have filled fiduciary
positions, were undoubtedly influenced
by a speculative mania, which under—
mined the principles of rectitude and
honor. In an age such as this of colos-
sal fortunes and abject poverty, the de-
sire to accumulate riches without wait-
_ ing for the slow process of saving, has
done much to wreck many houses and.
blast thousands of reputations. Hand-
ling the money of others tempts those
who have it in charge to divert it to in-
dividual uses. No int :ntion of crimin-
ality is at first indulged. Bad invest-
ments lead to loss, and to retrieve those
losses, other abstractions follow, till
the possibility of restitution vanishes
and the victim stands confessed before
the world an embezzler, a forger and a
defaulter.
Butchers’ Association.
The Retail Butchers’ association of
Norwalk and South Norwalk, held a
meeting in G. A. R. hall, last night.
Among those who were present and
made speeches, were George F. Kel-
logg, of Hartford, President of the
State association; George Wallace, of
Meriden, vice-president of the State-
association, I. W. Stillman, of Dan-
bury, secretary of the association in.
that city as well asamember of the
National association. The speeches were
all of an interesting character.
Matters pertiining to the recent ad-
vance made by wholesalers in the price
of beef were discussed, and routine
lzusiness transacted. Butchers not
members 01' the local association were
invited to be prcient with the result
that three new members were added,
to the roll. The association now num-
bers nineteen members.
The business session was followed by
a banquet in the “makeup” of which
there was no fish. It was-rich, how-
ever, with palatable salads, mince pie,
root beer, eu'. 'l'his want of the pro-
gramme was under the immediate.
supervision of err-councilman Schgmb
and Deacon Wixon. l
_ Town Conrt of Norwaik.
The bill creating a town cofirt at
Norwalk was taken from the calendar
-~'iu the Senate, yesterday, and Senator
Ferris offered an amendment submit-
ting the measures to the people. He
said that he was satisfied that 75 per
cent. of the people desired that they
should have an opportunity to vote
upon the measures and he earnestly ad-
vocated that they should. He was
satisfied that they would vote in favor
of its adoption.
Senator Warner said that all the lead-
ing, bright men of Norwalk were in
favor of the bill. The question of
whether it should be submitted to the
people was argued before the commit-
tee, only one person favoring it.‘ If
this bill were to be submitted to the
people for their acczptance, the same
principle should be applied to every
other law passed by the General Assem-
bly. The constitution gave the General
Assembly power to adopt laws estab-
lishing and regulating the judiciary
and a vital principle was involved.
Courts had been a travesty in Norwalk.
The submission of the bill to the peo-
ple would jeopardize its adoption as all
the worst elements in the town of Nor-
walk wOuld be arrayed against it.
Again the bill provided that it should
go into effect upon its passage and. the
judge and associate judge would hold
olfice from the first Monday of May,
'1895.
In reply to Senator. Webster, Senator
'Ferris admitted that the bill was ap—
proved by the great majority of the
people of Norwalk.
Senator Chandler was inclined to be
governed by the wishes of Senator Fer-
ris, who represented the district in
which Nor-walk was situated, and was
therefore in favor of the amendment.
Senator Webster supported Senator
Warner, but thought that if the major-
ity of the people of Norwalk wanted
the bill submitted to them they should
have that privilege. He moved to table
the bill. Senator Cofi'ey thought that
the bill should be passed as reported by
thejudiciary committee. The motion
to table was defeated.
Senator Warner again called atten—
tion to the fact that the judges under
the bill were to hold office from the
first Monday of May, 1895.
Senator Dayton favored the bill and
ISO its submission to the people.
Senator Lee said that if the amend-
ment was to be adopted, the date of
the appointment of the judges should
be changed to the first Monday of
November.
Senator Ferris’ amendment was
adopted 11 to 8 and the bill as amended
was passed. The amendment provides
that the bill shall be a public act and
shall go into effect on the second Mon,-
day of October, 1895, if approved at the
annual town meeting on the first Mon-
day of October, 1895.

The Foster Case.
The case of the State vs. Frank Fos-
ter, was on trial in the Court of Com-
mon Pleas, this morning. Justice
Rose in the local court found Foster
guilty of obstructing the sidewalk with
his wagon, and of resistance to an ofli-
cer when placed under arrest, and fined
him $1 and costs on each count from
which decision an appeal was taken.
After listening to the testimony of three
witnesses, Judge Walsh remarked that
his time was too valuable to try cases
apparently brought for spite, any
ordered the case nolled.
Thrown From a Surrey. .
As Mrs. E. Hubbell Hotchkiss was
driving up Water street Tuesday after-
noon, in her surrey. one of the mud
guards which was attached to the back
seat of the vehicle, struck against the
sign-post in front of Mrs. Fawcett’s
millinery store. On the mat were Mrs.
Fred Wilcox and an: 15..., r lady, and the
seat and occupants were hurled .back-
ward into the street. Both ladies es-
caped injury, the former with a slight
strain to her back and the latter a.
bruise on her arm. On the front seat
with Mrs. Hotchkiss was a ilittle child,
but thezdriver quickly ieined up her.
horse and the animal was not given a
chance to run. The ladies who‘were
thrown out were assisted into Mrs.
Fawcett’s store, and a short time after
were able to proceed to their homes.
Hospitals Not Llable.. ‘
The Supreme court of the state has
handed down a decision that has a uni-
versal interest. The decision was in
the case of Hugh Hearns against the
Waterbury hospital. Hearns was treat-
ed at the hospital after an accident, and
his leg amputated. He alleged that
the member could have been saved but
for criminal negligence and sued1 the
institution for $10,000. . . .
The hospital set up the defense that
it'was a charitable institution, that the
attending physicians served without
pay and that it was not liable for da -
ages for their mistakes, as, it was a
charity. The lower court overruled
the demurrer of the plaintiff to this de-
fense, and the supreme court sustains
the decision, thusthrowing the case
out of court. Opinion by Judge Ham-
ersley.

Purchase at Home. I
On Tuesday, an Italian made com-
plaint to Grand Juror John H. Hoyt,
that he had been swindled by the pro-
prietors who are conducting the al-
leged bankrupt sale of shoes on Main
street. The story as told by the Ital-
ian is to the effect that he purchased a
pair of shoes at the above mentioned
store and that on getting home he
found that both shoes were for} the
same foot. He alleges that he retiirned
and asked that the mistake be righted,
but that the proprietors refused.
In company with Mr. Hoyt the Ital-
ian again visited the store and another
attempt was made to adjust the trouble.
An offer was made by the proprietors
to give a different style of shoe in re-
turn for the others, but they refused to
return the money. '
It is understood that a civil suit will
be brought against the agents of the
“bankrupt stock.”

HOYT’s OPERA HOUSE.
Tonight, the doors of Hoyt’s Opera
House will swmg open for the great sce-
nic production of Lincoln J. Carter’s
“FastMail.”The railway has often been
used by the dramatist, but never be-
fore to such an extent as in Carter’s
famous play,
freight train with fourteen cars, a
lighted caboose and a full-sized loco-
motive, with engineer and fireman,
crosses the stage in the most realistic
and noisy manner, while later in the
play a great Mississippi river steam-
boat, with bells and. whistles and en-
egine in full operation, moves in and
explodes with terrific force. ,
MUSIC HALL.
The announcement of the production
of “Darkest Russia” created quite a stir
when the Russian naval ships were in
New York harbor. Vice-Admiral
Kaznakofi', of the flagship Dimitri Don-
skoi, tried to have a protest entered
aganist its being played, claiming it was
a slander on the Russian government.
The vice-admiral evidently forgot that
the stage was one of the free institu-
tions of America, and not under the
the ban of censors like his own country.
The United States Government, as‘ex-
pected, took no notice of the demand
to have the play stopped. “Darkest
Russia” will be seen at Music Hall Sat-
urday night April 13. The play is a
most interesting one, and shows realis-
tic pictures of Russian life.

WASHINGTON, Amalia—Chief Inspector
Wheeler of the postoflice department re-
fuses to say anything about the stamp
counterfeiting in Chicago, although he
has received several telegrams concerning
the affair. It Was learned from other
officials, however, that the extent of the
counterfeiting has been overestimated.
Third Aesistant Postmaster General Craig
says counterfeit stamps have carried let<
tors through the ”mails and have been can-
celed, but says that stamp counterfeiting
cannot be carried on to any great extent, as
the cost of making stamps and the difll:
culty in disposing of_ them are so great as
to render the counterfeiting of little profit.
Large purchases of stamps are usually
made from responsible and known men.
Unknown persons having stamps to sell,
he added, are under suspicion of having
stolen them, and large purchases, there-
fore, are not likely to be made from them.
Chief Hazen of the secret service dlvl-
slon of the treasury department received a
telegram today from one of his agents at
Chicago stating that he had seized $700
worth of counterfeit 2 cent postage stamps.
They had been shipped from Bufi'aloand
Were discovered in the Wells-Fargo Ex-
press company’s ofiice. The officials have
been on the alert for something of this
kind since last January, when they learn-
ed of a man making inquiry under suspi-
cious circumstances as to the process of
printing stamps. The officials of the se-
cret service are working on the case in
gonnectlon with the postofiice inspection
orce.
IMPBACEMENT DEMANDBD.
An Influential Arkansas Paper Condemns
Governor Clarke.
LITTLE ROCK, April Ids—The Arkansas
Democrat, the leading afternoon newapa-
per in the state, printed a leading edito-
rial, in which it refers to Governor Clarke’s
attack on Representative Jones on Sunday
‘as' shameful and infamous and demands
that the governor be impeached. Com-
parative serenity prevails in connection
with the bribery sensation on‘ the railroad
commission bill. The proceedings in the
house were devoid of reference to previous
incidents. Governor Clarke pleaded guilty
in a magistrate’s court to carrying a pis-
tol and was fined $550.
The house investigating committee will
make its report about the disclosure made
by Representative Yancey. It is rumored
that a number of members are primed for
' speeches in opposition to the course pur-
sued by the governor in the railroad com-
mission fight. .'
It is understood that a resolution to im-
peach Governor Clarke will be introduced
in the house by Mr. Monroe of Pulaski
county. It is known that bitter feeling
exists between Mr. Monroe and the gov-
ernor, growing Out of an incident which
Occurred in the executive office some time
ago, when the governor ejected the law-
maker. At least three other representa-
tives are said to' be loaded with speeches
with which Governor Clarke is connected,
and much excitement is looked for. It is
not believed, hoWever, that impeachment

supporters.

In every civilized couhtry people are
now taking Paine’s celery cOmpound.
Persons employed. constantly indoors
emerge from'the long confinement re-
duced in strength‘and nervous'v‘it‘ality.
The need of a spring medicine for years
impressed itself on, the attention of a
thinking people.
But with a lack of~a really valuable
scientific preparation people we‘re no-
customed to take, all sorts of home-made
concoctions'— some harmless, but none
of any great value. .
Finally, in the famous labratory of
Dartmouth medical schoolkProf. Ed¢
ward E. 'Phelps,M. 1)., LL. D., dis-
covered the formula for Paiue’s pelery
compound; the remedy that has‘become
the standard nerve restorer,: blood pu-
rifier and strengthens: from one end of
the country'ito the other, the prepara-
tion that stands unrivalled ass-'—
The world’s great spring remedy.
Not only isthis known to the people
generally today, but it is the one rem-
edy invariably ordered by the modern
class of physicians in all cases of nerv-
oustdebility. ' . x .
Since the appearance of Paine’s cel-
ery compound, when first prescribed by
Prof. Phelps,_there has been no difl'er-
ence .of opinion among scientific men
as to Its unrivaled merits. . , ,
The reports ‘of the many cases'where
this remarkable remedy has saved life
and. restored health, have again and
again been given at length in the inedi-
cal revrews and the newspapers, until
te-day the whole. country ~‘is-1familiar
with the power of Paine’scelery’com-
pound over disease. More thanone in-
fluential paper has-spoken in- editorial
columns of this great modern ’remedy
asa remarkable Instance of. ‘a scientific
discovery, emanating-3 from the. very
highest; medical authOrityrandr- y-taken
up later by the whole people, till to-
day it Is the recognized remedy of the
world for all forms of weakness.
No such complete agreement'LOf the
ment eyer before happened. _
. Just now, when the new yeafé—that
is the Spring—PIS overhauling the body
disease, ,it is well’to know what to do in
order to help the good werkmajong.
When the nerves Counti'ip'the gains
and losses of the winter, most every
one Is sure; to find that {he} stands in
need of a spring medicine-to tene him
up, to make richerand purer blood,
and to make his nerves sound and via-
orous. The marvelous ability of, rapid-
ly reconstructing wprngout‘tissues, of
purifying the blood "and" feeding tired
nerves has won for Pamela celery com-
pound the written indorsement of
thousands of careful physicians. l .
'It is a fact much commenteddn that
men and women of national reputation
and prominence, educated peeple, who
are careful what they employ when
sick, have of their own accord sent let'-
ters describing fully their-“permanent
recovery from rheumatism, heart-weak-
ness, sleeplessness, debility, ' kidney
troublesland from diseases of the stem-
iver.
In all these cases of recovery .lrom
serious disorders and the general feeble
health that comes direcuy from a bad
state of blood and impaired nerves,
- Paine’s celery compound has alwa 8 re-
moved disease and established health
This is how it has made men and
- women come to speak of it 'as‘" “the
remedy that makes people well.” This
significant phrase has been repeated so
often frommouth to mouth that '-it is
now everywhere msep’arably associated
With Paine’s celery compound, not
only ‘by the physicians who daily pre-
scribe it, but by the thousands ofa’illng
people, young and old, who go to iii-for
aid and comfort. . , ~
