Hon. JohnT. Wait.
To—day the venerable John T. Wait
of Norwich begins his 85th year of his
life in full possession of his faculties
and with a buoyant sp1rit. There is
not a lawyer in the state who was ad-
mitted to the bar prior to him, or one
that has been in active practice so long.
F13 sixty years he has been in legal
practice and stands at the head of his
profession by seniority as well as by -
legal attainments.
The GAznrrE desires to join its con-
gratulations to the many cordial ones
he will receive from all over the state,
and express the. wish that our honored
friend may round the century mark in
good health and with faculties as clear
and bright as in the days of yore
when he so ably represented his dis-
trict and state in the halls of Congress.

Fakirs and Their Patrons.
The following from the pen of Editor
Belles of the New Milford Gazette ap-
plies more to Norwalk than to any oth-
er section of the state. The fake dis-
patches sent out from here do the town
no end of harm. and the sensational way
in which the action of a clergyman in
resenting an insult was dished up by
the local press yesterday, serves to give
some idea of Norwalk’s sensational
newspapers. .
. Editor Bolles says: -—“The mortifica-
;_tion and misery which worthy people
. havie to endure on account of sensation-
Mal articles in daily newspapers have re-
ceived due attention But the pecuni-
...,ary.damagI'e_,done~ by these papers in
' the’. circulation of grossly false news
* * * in country towns and villages is
a subject which deserves thorough
agitation by the country weeklies of
this state and by its reputable daily
papers.
It' is time that a sturdy public senti
ment was aroused in country places
against the widely circulated but con-
temptible papers that ruthlessly injure
the very people who patronize them by
buying the editions to a liberal extent.
The rabble will continue to read mean
papers, but thoughtful and conscien-
tious citizens should encourage legiti-
mate journalism by purchasing only
papers that are decently and carefully
edited.”
The Flag for Americans.
Kier Hardie, the British labor leader,
made aspeech in New York the other
day in which he alluded enthusiastical-
ly to an emblem which he described as
“the red flag of Socalism and universal
brotherhood.” If Mr. Hardie is under
the impression that any considerable
portion of the population of this coun-
try are ready to uphold the scarlet sym-
bOl of Socialism he is laboring under a
grave mistake, and the sooner he cor-
rects his views the better.
American citizenship, whether it is
the citizenship of the employer, the
wage earner or the farmer, knows only
one flag, and. that is the Stars and
Stripes. The standard of Communism
and Anarchy is .not popular in' the
United States, however it may be re-
garded by the masses of the European
monarchies. The flag which every
loyal American, native or naturalized
honOrs, and for which every loyal
American is willing to fight if need be,
has no kinship with socialistic theories
or the destruction of those property
I rights and personal liberties which are
' the surest safeguards of labor.
The American people have had plenty
of opportunities to choose other sym-
bols. Great Britain tried to‘ force the
flag of St. George upon them ; and
V they engaged in two destructive wars
V to establish the supremacy of the ban-
ner of liberty in the New World. ' The
Southern slaveholder set up the barred
standard of the Confederacy , and the
nation fought for four years to 121 ample
V it in the dust and raise the flag of Wash-
ington and LincOIn over it. .
A few day’s careful study of the his-
‘ tory of this Republic will conv1nce Keir
Hardie that his fervent commendation
' ted States is not only useless but high
1y rid1culous. " - ~ <

The Missing School Teacher As-
sumed the Name of Mary
Burke.
'o
. Miss Lucretia Clark, the former
teacher at Miss C. F. Baird’s Seminary
on Orchard street, who so mysteriously
disappeared from Plainfield, N. J ., on
Friday morning, August 9, has been
found. She was discOvered Sunday at
the home of ex-Mayor Charles S. Hay-
den, 28 Holt street, Fitchburg, Mass,
by Detective Louis J. Beck of New
York, who has been at work on the case
since last Friday. Detective Beck ar-
rived in Syracuse last his ht with Miss
Clark in charge.
Since Miss Clark’s disappearance
John E.-Sweet of Syracuse, her broth-
ernin-law, has followed every clue and
on Friday last he secured the services
of Detective Beck of New York. The
detective traced her to Macy’s store
from where the clue was lost.
The main clue that led to the finding
of Miss Clark was received in a letter.
On the second day of his investigation
the detective received several anony-
mous letters threatening him with
bodily harm if he persisted in following
up the case The postmarks of the
letters were traced out and the places
visited. Detective Beck states that the
woman became mentally deranged and
anew nothing of what occurred after
leaving Macy’s store. Unconsclous of
her actions, she boarded a night boat
bound for Providence over the Stcning-
tin line. When she reached Boston
Miss Clark went to a small boarding
house on Tremont street. '
On the morning of Aug. 10, she ap-
peared at an employment bureau and
'got a place in the Hayden family of
Fitchburg. There she gave her name
as Mary Burke, and from that time
ing to her duties as a domestic in the
closest manner.
At noon Sunday, the detective ar-
r1ved at Fitchburg, and proceeded to
the Hayden home. He found Miss
Clark busily engaged in domestic work.
When he made the object of his visit
known the Hayden household doubted
his story.
Miss Clark was taken into a room
with the detective, and there she was
quietly told she was to accompany the
man to Syracuse. This she positively
refused to do. Then an elder sister of
Miss Clark, living near New York, was
telegraphed for.
She arrived at noon and Miss Lucre-
tia appeared to recognize the woman,
and from that time her reason seemed
to return to her. '
How or when she left New York she
was unable to state. All was a blank
from the time she had left Macy’s store.
The general appearance of ,Miss
IClark since she left was greatly chang-
‘ed. Part of her hair has been cut
short, she was dressed in black, ‘and a
long black veil covered her head and
face. .
It was on Aug. 9 that Miss'Clark
dropped out of sight. She had been
ed to the Horned Institute. She had
been an instructor for eight years in
Miss Baird’s school in this city and
went to Plainfiel d some time ago, and
made arrangements with Mr. James E.
Martino, to open a girl’s school in the
old Harned Institute, which was on his
property.
While she was in Plainfield she had
with her as a companion, her niece,
MissIIrene M. Yannt. Early on the
morning of Aug. 9, Miss Clark kissed
her niece good-by and started to take a
train for New York, where she said she
intended to do some shopping. She
to return to Plainfield the same even-
ing. She did not return and her niece
became alarmed. Telegrams were sent
to Miss Clark’s relatives in Syracuse.
Mr. Bunce and Mr. Sweet came on and
they, with Mr. Martino, endeavored to
find her. No one seemed to have any
idea why she had disappeared or where
she hadgone. She was not even seen
to take the train at Plainfield for New
York, search was made for her in all
the hospitals, and the police were
finally asked to join in the search.
A Life Saved.
Frank Fitzgerald, Newsman Hayes’
clerk, had his attention attracted . to a
piteous moaning as if some one were
in distress. Looking out of a rear
window he, sawa form standing on
a rock in the river, which the incoming
tide threatened to hush forever ,by
drowning, the cries. He quickly se-
cured a rope and with the dexterity of'a
cowboy succeeded in lasooing the poor
creature and pulling it into the store,
‘while a crowd stood on the bridge,
watching him in breathless suspense,
'and the sigh of relief that followed the
rescue was that heavy it threatened to
break the bridge rail and precipitate
the crowd on t) the rocks below.
Frank returned the animal he had
rescued, a cat, t“. its owner, Druggist
Hale, and was awdrded a bbx of liver
pills.

Not Satlsfled.
The general manager of the Street
Railway company after having given
Jack Weston a check for repairs on his
vehicle necessitated at least in part by
one of the company’s cars coming in
contact with the same, was not a little
surprised to receive a request from Jack
for a check in liquidation of his claims
for loss of time. The gal] of some poo-
ple would sidetrack a locomotive.

Stole a Growler.
A lot of young hoodlums are credited
with gathering in 111's vicinity of Butch-
er Fred Smith’s ioe house on Belden
avenue, where the older ones of the
party indulge in the game ‘of poker.
Sundays seem to be field days with
them. The other day they managed to
gain an entrance to the house and
steal a pail which they made do service
as a growler. SO far they have manag-
ed tO' escape being arrested.
. Serious Accident.
A mute called John Camp, employed
at the Benedict & CO. clothing store, in
this city, met with a serious accident
this morning. In company with his
playmate, “Billy” Benedict, he was en-
gaged in dressing the store window,
when he either stepped on a highly
polished shirt front or was- tripped
by “Billy.” He fell heavily to the
floor and sustained severe abrasions on
his face, and it is feared dislocated his
shoulder. He was taken to a New
York hospital for treatment today.
COO
A Good Catch.
Harold Knapp of Bridgeport is visit-
ing friends in town. Harold has a pen-
chant for fishing and every day he can
be seen at theV'Uuion factory pond ang-
ling for fish. One day last week a large
sna pping turtle grabbed the baited hook
and gave Harold a lively tussle in try-
ing to land him. Seeing that it was a
case of being pulled into the pond, he
gave up the contest and the turtle swam
away with about 200 feet of fishline.
The ladfhowever gained some cOnsola-
tion yesterday by catching in the same
pond a two pound pike which he will
send to his home in Bridgeport.
Spider and Fly.
M. B. Leavitt’s greater spectacular
production ” Spider and Fly” will ap—
pears at Hoyt’s Theatre Thursday eve-
ning. It is no easy matter to describe
all the attractive features which have
been crowded into the three acts of,
“Spider and Fly," with its manifold
novelties, its host of talented perform-
ers, which were mostly recruited"
abroad, and its wealth of beautiful cos-
tomes, gorgeous scenery, armor, me-
chanical efi'ects, transformations, spark-
ling music, novel specialties, clever
pantomine, brilliant ballets and evolu-
tions. It presents an entertainment. in
which the brightest features of comedy,
pantomine, opera and specialty are ar-
tistically blended. -
An innovation.
Superintendent Kyle of 'the Street
Railway company, this morning proved
himself a genius as well as a man of
artistic tastes, by the manner in which
at short notice he prepared one of'the
company’s cars for a wedding party.
It was prettily festooned with white
crepe, and the trolley arm and handle-
bars of the car were tied with bows of
delicate shade of pink ribbon. As a
matter of fact car No. 12 was the pink
of perfection. Motorman John Blake
guided the car with ajoyous speed, and
Conductor Fredericks kept his hands
in readiness for a pull on the bell-rope,
and seemed to be nervous as to ringing
up fares as his eyes were riveted on the
register, which marked nothing. As
there were he fares to be collected he
wore white gloves.
. Colic Promptly Cured.
CHATHAM, Mass. , March 15, 1894. ——
A few days ago when I had an attack
of colic in the bowels I took a dose of
Chamberlain’ s Colic, Cholera. and Dial -
rhoea Remedy and within ten minutes
all of my colic pains had disappeared;
5‘1 am highly pleased with the remedy
and take pleasure in recommending it.

The Barthel-Sweizer Trouble Is

Again RGVlVBd.
Constable Hunt Serves a Writ of
Attachment.
Constable Hunt to-day served at-
tachment papers on Louis Sweizer, to
cover a claim of $2,000 made by John
Barthel. Some months since, Barthel,
who owns a farm at Cranbury, entered
into an, agreement by which Sweizer
was to “work” the farm and the pro-
duct of the same was to be divided pro
rats or at the per centage agreed upon.
, Barthel and Sweizer have since disa-
greed, in. fact as noted in these columns
their disagreements have reached , a
- stage where assault has been charged
against both parties.
In the first instance Barthel had
Sweizer arrested, but the evidence of-
assault being so conflicting, the Judge
before whom the case was tried found
Iverdict for the defendant and dis-
charged him.
Later on, Barthel, bespattered with
blood, preferred a charge of murderous
assault agamst Sweizer claiming [that
he had assaulted'him with a club and
attempted to kill him.
Barthel’s injuries were of a serious
nature and Sweizer was placed under
heavy bonds. His trial was deferred
while he languished in the Smith street
station-house unable to secure bonds,
awaiting the result of Barthel’s injuries.
In the meantime two or three suits
for damages had been brought against
Barthel emanated. by Sweizer’s attor-
ney.
Finally Barthel’s injuries permitted
of his appearing in court and Sweizer’s
bonds were reduced for his appearance
befOre the superior Court. He man-
aged to secure the necessary amount
and was released, _
It now looks as if the troubles be-
tween the two were but in embryo, and
that the lawyers on either side were in
the fight for keeps, and that it will be
some months before the differences are
settled.

HYMENEAL.
Byrne—Sheedy.
AtSt. Mary’s church, this morning,
Rav.r Father Slocum in the presence of
perhaps 150 ladies and not in excess of
fifteen gentlemen, united in marriage,
in a solemn and impressive manner,
Miss Fannie T. Sheedy of this city, to
Dr. T. F. Byrne, of Union Hill. N. J.
The bride was prettily attirel in- a
traveling gown of light gray tastefully
trimmed with velvet of a rich shade of
green. As she walked up the aisle in
company with her father she smilingly
greeted her many friends with a nod,
which was repeated as she returned
from the sealing of the compact that
has united her to one whom she has
chosen for weal or woe for a lifetime.
Miss Marie Keena becomingly attired
in a dress that was bewildering pretty
acted as bridesmaid, and fulfilled her
mission in a graceful manner.
Dr. B. D. Sheedy, of Bridgeport, a
brother of the groom acted as best man,
and behaved himself as if to the manor
born.
After the ceremony Mr. and Mrs.
Byrne accompanied by their immediate
relatives entered the coaches that were
in waiting and were whirled to the for-
mer home of the bride in Winnipauk
where 4a wedding breakfast awaited
their arrival. They were followed by
aStreet Railway car which had been
tastefully ornamented with white crepe
and rich pink ribbons, and in which
were seated, gaily attired, a number of
the invitedguests. . V
The wedding feast was grand and the
'amountof good cheer was in strong
contrast with the glower-ing clouds that
have been hanging over the city during
the day. Indeed, it was a festal occas-
ion that will linger in the minds of
those present as long as they live.
The display of presents combined
richness and utility and were greatly
admired.
Mr. and Mrs. Byrne left on an after-
noon train fer a ' short wedding trip,
after which they will settle down to the
stern realties of life in Union Hill,
