A Splendid Number.

The enterprising Sentinel did itself
proud yesterday in its report of the
State Firemen’s convention being held
in South Norwalk. A large proportion
of the paper was devoted to the fire-
men and included life-like pictures Of
leading fire Officials. It was a. big no.
dertaking successfully carried through,
and proves the Sentinel to be an up to

, date newspaper.

GOD

 

Shameful Persecutions.

ri‘his country is showing up acts of
bigotry, considering its principles and
its professions, almost as barbarous as
the Chinese massacres. Second Ad-
ventists have been imprisoned in Mary-
land and Tennessee, the Salvation
Army representatives have been insult
ed and assaulted in Oklahoma, jiiled in
Colorado and wet down by a fire de-
partment in Nebraska recently. It
should be remembered, says the Nor-
wich Bulletin, that tolerance should go
hand in hand with liberty in a free
country. The people who have no re-
spect for opinions different from those
entertained by themselves are bigots
by culture and totally incapable Of ap-
preciating or living up to the great
American principle which declares that
in this country every one shall be per-
mitted to worship God according to the
dictates of his own conscience.

Maine Is for Reed.

Senator Frye and Senator Hale of
Maine have effectually disposed Of the
canard which represented them as se-
cretly hostile to the nomination of
Thomas B. Reed for the presidency.
Both these gentlemen have explicitly
declared themselves in favor Of ex-
Speaker Reed’s candidacy, and have
manfully pledged their best efforts in
his behalf. Senator Frye says: “Mr.
Rood is a man of brilliant intellect and
great force, and would receive in his
canvass the hearty support of the
Maine senators.” Senator Hale, his
colleague, tersely states his position as
follows: “If I can contribute in any
way to bring about Mr. Reed’s nomi-
nation and election, I shall certainly do
so. Ithink Mr. Reed will be a very
strong candidate in the convent-ion.
He is a brilliant man and very popular
with the masses Of the Republican
party. They have great pride in him
as a fighter, and a fighting leader is the
kind of a man who is apt to develop
unexpected strength in a political con-
vention.”

. HP—
A Good Example.

The progress Of the new woman is so
rapid, and her growth is so rank, that
it is not surprising that she is not yet
in all respects just what her dear
friends and admirers would like to have
her be. When she has rebounded
from her extremes and has settled
down into her permanent condition
and shape there is no doubt that she
will be all that is pleasing and desira-
ble. Until then she will be looked at
by the Old Man in wonder and in hope
says the New Haven Journal.

What the New Woman may yet be is
indicated by something that has been
and is going on in Eastport, Maine.
An emancipated woman in that town
regularly does a man’s work on the
woodpile. handling the saw and the axe
with all the skill of a. French Canadian
male expert. Many women can hnd do
preparetheir own kindling wood. If
they didn’l‘i they wouldn’t have any, for
the 01.11111”... is often'abovc such trivial
work as fixing wood so that it can be

used to start a fire with. But this East‘

port woman hardlly and persistently

tackles a woodpile and reduces it to its

lowest terms in short order.

What an example for the New WO-l

man does the Eastport woman present.
She says nothing and saws wood.
While it is a great pleasure to hear the
New Woman talk it is possible that she
would be even more glorious and 'vic-
toriousthan she is if she would say less
and saw more wood. ‘

Louden Captured.
Constable Hunt this morning drove
to Wilton and captured William Lou-
den, who has been evading arrest since
last month, for an assault on William
Joyce and wife at Winnipauk.

Revlval Expected.

The new Dunlap hat will be out Sep-
tember let, and it is expected to revive
the batting business. If it fails, the
business will be handicapped by being
knocked into a cooked hat as it were.
ular, and the cooked hat may be
knocked in again.

Careless Shootlng.

A lad living on Maple street, who has
for a toy an air gun, took deliberate
aim at a little girl who stood on the
Opposite side of the street from him,
yesterday afternoon, and pulling the
trigger a shOt sped out of the gun strik-
ing the girl squarely in the forehead.
Fortunately, the shot had lost consider-
able Of its force and did not penetrate
very deep. It, however, stung the
child to tears.

Faked Agaln.

The embryo reporter of the News
last night startled the natives of Cross
street with the information that Wil-
11am Mulcahy, whose child has the
diphtherIa, was not observing the
quarantine notice placed on his house,
but was going to work every morning
in a'factory among many other men
and exposing the dread disease.

’Dr. Tracy informs us that there is no
truth in the statement, and, further—
more, Mulcahy has not lived in the
house since in was quarantined. Next!

A Seed ln Hls Eye.

For some days Fred Osborn in the
employ of the Street-Railway company
has been troubled by a painful feeling
in his left eye. He tried several differ-
ent remedies but experienced no re-
lief. This morning he visited Dr.
Hitchcock who made an examination
which resulted in the finding of the
shell Of some kind of fruit seed. which
had fastened itself on the eye-ball. It
was extracted, and Mr. Osborn was
given a lotion with which to bathe his
eye. He can in no way account for the
seed getting into the place where it was
found.

A Handsome Stone.

James Sexton & Son, the monument
makers of Bridgeport, have just finish~
ed the work of erecting in Riverside
cemetery, a memorial to the late
William Glass.

It is a solid column of polished Quin-
cy granite, hewn from the same quarry
as that from whence came the stone for-
the Bunker Hill Monument, and its
dark yet highly polished surfaces form
an attraction that is irresistible. ' Pas-
sers by invariably stop to gaze at and
admire the monument; It lie 8. really
handsome thing. Its cost was about
$350.

It is a sample of the work that Mr.
Sexton is turning out, and surely none
could ask for anything betterg'or__ more
attractive and pleasing, while the cost,
which is something to be considered
on even such an occasion, is exceeding-

ly leasonable.
