A Hint for Norwalk.
Minneapolis has followed the good ex-
ample set by other progressive cities,
and is now hard at work endeavoring
to provide remunerative labor for the
many unemployed in that region. The
matter has been discussed for some
time, and many plans were suggested,
but the best one is the one that has re-
ceived the approval of the city Council,
which has practically decided to issue
bonds t) the amount of $100,000 at 2 per
cent, the money realized to be used for
public improvements, among which a
large water-reservoir is conspicuous.
There will be no trouble in disposing
of the bonds, for the business men of
Minneapolis have already agreed to
take the entire issue. It is the poorest
suit of policy to make a pauper of a
man who really desires to work, and
Minneapolis is to be congratulated. Is
this not a timely idea for Norwalk, to
get additional watergm ins put down
and increased water storage, with in.
cidental highway improvementi.

The Ex-President.
When Garfield became President, a.
comparatively young man, Grant and, .
Hayes were both-clan active period of
' life and it seemed a reasonable ex pectrg-l
'tion that before; many years the ex-
- Presidents wouldform a considerable
group. The question was gravely dis»
cussed of devising-some Special em-
ployment or dignity for them—as
though a man who had been President
of the United States needed any fur-
. t‘ier distinction.”
If this question had been worth con-
sidering it would have been solved by
events. Twelve years later, before Mr.
Cleveland became President a second
time, he was the only ex—President liv—
ing, and neither he nor his immediate
successor whom he had succeeded
found any difficulty in determining
what to do with himself or the country
what to do with them.
The example of these two strong men
has put an end to any discussion of
wiiat to do with err-Presidents. Tth
are abundantly able to take care of
themselves. If they were not, they
would be of no particular use to the
country in any ornamental capacity.
Mr. Harrison, who is now thevnly sur-
viving ex-President, has returned to
his place as a citizen and to the work of
his profession, as his predecessor did,
with a modest dignity that needs no
title to sustain it.
Wherever he goes he commands the
respect and regard that belong to one
who has honorably filled what all Amer-
icans feel to be the highest
station upon earth. And though he
comes and goeslwithout parade, as a
self-respecting private citizen, there is
one community that does not feel itself
honored b 57 his presence.
Death of Mr. W. B. lsaacs.
Mr. William B. Isaacs, a native of
Norwalk and son of the late Benjamin
Isaacs, died at his long-time home in
Richmond, Va., early Sunday morn.
ing. He was a private banker in Rich-
mond for several years prior to the war
and was in those days, a frequent visu-
or here to his Childhood’s home. He
has always been a prominent and re-:
spected citizen in Richmond, and em—
inent in the masonic fraternity. He
was Grand \Secretary of the Grand
Lodge of Virginia, Grand Recorder of
the Grand Encampment of the U. S. of
America. He leaves a family of adult
children and was the uncle of Mrs. E.
P. Weed and the great uncle of Mrs.
Ira Cole of this city. His sister, Mrs. S.
B. Lockwood, is now the sole surviving
child of Judge Benjamin Issues. The
deceased was well and favorably knowne
here, by large numbers of'onr older
residents.

Children’s Day.
In most of our churches yesterday,
tion and song were held in celebration
of “Children’s Day,” now made an in
teresting anniversary all over our broad
land. Springtime’s brightest flowers
decorated the churches in richest pro-
fusion, like angel smiles upon the little
ones. Music was also made a special
feature in the churches, rendering the
beautiful service one of rare delight to
all.
At the First Congregational church,
Rev. Dr. Noble appropriatlcly prefaced
the service by the baptism of the child-
ren of W. F Lockwood, E. L. Boyer
and William Olmstead. Superintend-
ent Charles E. Curtis, conducted the
elaborate Sunday school programme,
consisting of responsive readings, reci—
tatious and singing. Dr. Noble made
a short and interesting address to the
children which was followed bya de-
lightful solo by Miss Sherwood. Miss
Camp presided at the organ and Miss
Sally Betts at the piano, while a reed
and :tring quartett..~ of young gentle-
men added sweetest instrumental mel-
ody to the rich and cultured voices of
the choir.
At Grace church its fourth Sabbath
school anniversary was observed in an
exceedingly interestIng service in the
afternoon. , '
At the Baptist and Methodist churches
beautiful and elaborate programmes
were rendered, music in all cases being
made a prominent and most delightful
feature. .

Rambling Wheelmen’s Races.
The opening bicycle races of the
day afternoon. They were held by
the Rambling Wheelmen, and were
run at Pleasure beach. The track was

Aston, of Bridgeport, was riding to win,
and when about 200 feet from the finish
F. B. Stowe of Conway, Mass, who
.was close behind and riding a little
ragged, struck the rear wheel of Aston’s
bicycle. Both were thrown, and the
crowd rushed onto the track. Aston
and Stowe were both unconscious when
taken to the dressing room, but ,rcviv-
ed in a short time under care of phy-
sicians. The extent of their injuries
cannot yet be determined.
H. L. Howard of New York, a starter
in the second event, was disqualified
for further riding during the day for
interference. D. E. Baxter of New
York, who Was second in the one-mile
handicap, was also disqualified for foul
riding. Summaries: '

—A Beverage for Wheelmen.
Next to being lost at sea there is
nothing that brings on the pangs of
thirst quicker than bicycle riding. The
hot sun and the constant inhalation of
dust quickly perches the throat and
makes the biker long for the next stop
for refreshments. The Wise rider avoids
ice water, well knowing its danger.
Alcoholic beverages are likewise ta-
booed because of their hearing propen-
sities, and there is little satisfaction in.
Wishy-washy stuff sold under the broad
classification of "soft; drinks.” A well-
:Iuiigwn whee-linen In speaking of this,‘
“What to drink is no easy problem to
a man on a long, hot run. The only
drink l. know really lit for a bicycle
rider Is Hires’ ltootbecr, carbonated.
There are but few places now at which
;t cannot be had, and I tell you it
braces one right up, seems to go right
down to the bottom of'your pedal work-

quickly lowering your temperature and
fully satisfying your thirst. I tell you
there’s nothing like it, and I’ve sworn
off all other drinks when on the road.”
