Paris’ 1900 Exposition.
First estimates of the cost of the Par-
is Exposition of the year 1900' are now
public property in the report of the
finance commissioners, and they ‘say
that it will take 100,000,000 francs or
something over $20,000,000 to get ready.
This is much in advance of the con-
struction; expenditures of the Columbian
Exposition at Chicago, which amount-
ed to $18,322,622, but Chicago may re?
main at the head as the details of ex-
penditures there aggregated the collos-
sal sum of $25,540,537. The Paris com-
missioners propose to meet their ex-
pense by issuing 3,250,000,10ttery bonds
of the value of twenty francs each, en-
titling the holder to twenty tickets of
admission, the right to twenty-five per
cent. reduction in admission to enter-
tainments within the Exposition, and a
reduction in railway and boat fares.
Then at the close, holders of tickets
will participate in the distribution of
cash prizes amounting to $1,250,000.
The French have a genius for raising
money and this plan is suggestive of the
thrifty way in which they devise ex—
pedients to tap thousands of little finan~
cial rivulets. Many American tourists
are already booked for a proposed visit
to Paris in the year 1900, to attend this
great French exposition.

Grasping England.
Err-Senator George F. Edmunds, of
Vermont, who has gone to Philadelphia.
with his invalid daughter, to reside for
4 the winter, uttered the fbllowing senti
merits in a recent “talk” to the mem-
bers of the Union League Club and
their friends, on “International Rela-
tions in Central and South America.”
Mr. Edmunds pointed out on a map
the possession: of Great Britain, which
encircled the globe This great expan-
sion, he said, was not a conquest of
blood, but of trade and English civili-
zation. He then gave a history of the
origin of the Monroe doctrine.
“I‘hat doctrine declared,” he said,
“that Americans would not look with
unconccrn on the interference of any
foreign Power with respect to the auto-
nomy or (-xistenceof the American
Republics. Thdt was the last Monroe
doctrine, and it stood as a menace to all
foreign Countries.”
Mr. Edmunds called attention to the
way British claims in Honduras had
grown from almost nothing to seven
thousand square miles. In British
Guiana, in 1851,; their claims included
only a few towns with no boundry at
_ all, given on the border toward Yen-
ezuela. In 1870 this small cliiim had
groivn to 76,000 square miles, and in
1892 to 109,000 square miles.
“That is the British expansion,” he
added, “but I hope and believe that the
President and his Secretary of State
will not let Venezuela be squeezed out
of the mouth of the Orinoco. Ihope
the President will see that all our
Southern neighbors are protected in
their just rights.” .
Mr. Edmunds also urged the great
advantage of the Nicaragua Canal un-
der American control. After referring
.to‘the many matters to be considered
when discussi‘ng the annexation of
Cuba, for instance, he paid a compli—
ment to President Cleveland, saying
that no President had ever been found
lacking in patriotism in looking after
our relations with foreign powers, and,
republican though he was, he could
heartily say that of both of Mr. Cleve-
land’s administrations, as would, no
doubt, be demonstrated to all when all
the facts came out.

* Grace Church.
The address to Ladies only, yesterday
afternoon at Grace Church, drew a
densely packed house and was replete
With earnest entreaty to his auditors,
for the exercise of “Christian Charity”
for the erring and fallen. The speaker
emphasized the sentiment of Burn’s'
beautiful and tender linesz— ‘
“Then gently scan, your brother man.
Still gentler, sister, woman;
For to forgive, it is divine,
And to err, is human.”
The interesting and profitable mis-
sionary services of the earnest. devoted
and spiritually endowed preacher, are
to terminate tO-morrow.
. Knocked Out.
While playing basket ball yesterday
afternoon in the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium,
A. Preston Sherwood ran into the
vaulting bar, knocking himself down
and out. He came to in a few minutes
and remarked as they raised him from
the floor, “That is the first time I ever
got a knock-out blow.” Beyond a se-
vere contusion on his forehead “Free”
is all right to-day.
Flag Raising. \
There was a flag raising at the Bold
Hill school house in Wilton, Wednes-
day. Nearly 100 persons were present
and the occasion was an enthusiastic
one. Speeches were made by the clergy
and leading citizens of the place, and
the irrepressible “Dick” Fitch read an
original patriotic poem, which was re-
ceived with “bOystrous” applause. The
pole which is nearly fifty feet high, is
surmounted by a large ball. The 11ng
is 8x12 and the pupils are quite proud
of it.
Whist Party.
The West Main Street Whist club
met at the home of Moses H. Glover on
Main street, last evening. There were
five tables of players. The first gentle-
man’s prize a mustache cup was won
by a man who never had a mustache,
Mr. Marshall Andrews; the lady’s prize
a handsome vase was awarded to Miss
Mattie Gregory, and the consolation
prize, a pack of cards, went to James
Grifl'eth. Light refreshments were
served. It was one of the happiest
meetings ever held by the club.

‘ A Word for the Tramp.
EDITOR GAZETTE:—--
Surely the way of the genus Tramp is
becoming hard in Norwalk. No matter
be he honest, tired or hungry, he is
looked upon with a suspicion, that con-
dem as him a thief, a murderer, drunk-
ard,“and a walking encyclopedia of all
the sins that flesh is heir to.
But there are others, who of a neces-
sity which may reach us all, are com-
pelled to tramp or die in their tracks.
Is it just or right that we should refuse
them a mouthful to eat or that the town
officmls with their mistaken Idea of not
providing them a place suitably warm,
seeks to get rid of them by offering
accommodation for the night in‘a room
so cold and damp that they must stand
up and kick each other in order to keep
from freezing to death?
True it_1s there are members of the
genus 'l'ramp,~ who are deserving of
time in jail. But does not the fact of
shutting them out of doors lead others
really deserving to commit burglary or
other crimes in order to get money to
pay for that which is refused them ? -
The cost of the few tens of coal need-
ed to warm the tramp.quarters is small
as compared with the value of articles
that are liable to be stolen because of
this lack of provision made to heat the
tramp quarters, and it is well-known
that there are even “honest men who
will steal before they will freeze- or
beg.” .
If it is on the Score of economy, that
the Selectmen refuse to furnish coal,
the writer guarantees that he will start
a subscription paper and feels assured
that a necessary amount will be collec-
ted to furnish warmth for those who
are forced to apply to the. town for a
night’s lodging.
All tramps are not thieves, burglars
or murderers. Even “Inasmuch as
ye have done‘it for one of these so have
ye done it for Me.” Let the tramp
quarters be warmed. ' F. G. B.

.Biirglars .Make an Attempt id
Enter Two More Residences.
Riverside and East Avenues the
Scene of their Work.
The gay and festive burglar is still at
work notwithstanding the efforts of the
-pOlice to arrest them. . .
This morfing at one o’clock Thomas
Leatherland, a lock fitter employed 'by
the Norwalk Lock company, was awak-
ened from his slumbers by a' noise at
the front door of his residence No. 2
Riversrde avenue.
Leatherland hastily jumped from his
bed and opening his window enquired
who was there and what was wanted.
In answer to his response a man jump-
from his front porch and ran out Of the
gate.
In the darkness Leatlierland could not
identify his visitor and as he had disap-
peared around the corner of the street
he made no attempt to follow him. He
did, however, go down and look at the
key in his front door and there found
the imprint of a pair 'of forceps where
the burglar had attempted to turn the,
key in the lock. ‘ ,
At an early hour this morning, a
similar attempt was made to get into
the house owned by Mrs. Wallace Dann,
on Newtown avenue, and occupied by
W. F. Bryant, clerk at the Holmes,
Keeler & Selleck Company :tare. '
About 3 O’ClOck, his daughter hearda
noise as if some one was trying to gain
an entrance to the house through the
bay window. Shc alarmed members of
the family, but an investigation proved
fruitless, the burglars evidently having
become frightened by hearing the in-
mates stirring about, and made good
their escape.
It was found that the putty in the sash
of the bay Window had been- cut out
near the window-catch, t‘i.) object be~
in: no doubt to push the catch back,
and thus entrance to the room would
have been an easy matter.
It is also reported that two men were
seen prowling about the premises of C.
O. C. Betts on the Green, again, at an
early hour this morning.
Evidence of a call from burglars was
found at the home of Thomas Hyde on
Cross street, this morning. Nothing,
however, was stolen.

They Vlew the Situation.
ed property owners, this morning, look-
ed over the proposed lay out of the
Street Railway company through Wall
street and up Mill Hill. The proposed
changes did not seem to meet with the
approbation of any one other than those
directly-interested in the road, and it
looks as if there would be a hard fight
before the layout will be granted. A
proposition that seems to meet with fa-
vor is that the company purchase a por-
tion of the Quintard building and
tear it down and thus widen the street.
The present layout would permit of
scarcely 721.- feet between the tracks and
curb. It would also necessitate the cut-
ting off of a portion of the sidewalk at
the foot of the hill and the throwing
south about three feet, several feet of
the curb line. The matter will be dis—
cussed at a meeting of the council next
Monday night.
Bottlers’ Association. ,
The Bridgeth Bottlers’ association
Of which the Grumman Bros. of this
city are members, held a meeting in
Danbury, yesterday, which Was presid-
ed over by President- M. J. Mahoney,
of Bridgeport. Twenty members were
present and patiently listened to a two
hours’ speech made by C. W. Baldy of
Stamford. He moved the members of
the association to tears or laughter at
will, and gave some valuable points on
the recovery of bottles. The meeting
adjourned to meet in Norwalk the first
Tuesday in December.

About twenty members of St. John’s

they paid a fraternal visit to Harmony

Editor Kirk of the New Canaan Mes"-

ex-editor John H. Wade, the candidate
was handled with unusual care and is
able to be at his sanctum to-day. The

St. Mary’s Fair.
The attendance at St. Mary’s church
fair last evening while not large was a
renumerative one. The entertainment
was excellent. A recitation, .by Miss
Lizzie Beers received merited applause,
and “The Little Pigs,” as represented
by lots of children created much mirth.
The tableau Faith, Hope and Charity,
represented by Miss Anna O’Brien,
Miss Nora Finnegan and Miss Sallie
Kilboy was beautiful and gave such
eminent satisfaction, that its repetition
was called for. A large sized doll was
awarded to a man named Stevens who
handled it like a “punkin husker."

Another Dark Horse
Some of the leading local sports are
now interested in a young colored man
who, they haye recently discovered,
possesses some pugilistic abilities. It is
their intention to gigs him a. trial with
some good man, shortly, and should he
come up to the .mark where the~ local
sports and others interested would deem
it safe to place their money upon him
in a match with Keefe, of Greenwich,
then he will be immediately placed in
the hands of a trainer, and negotiations
will be opened for a fight. He will ap-
pear at the exhibition to be given in the
Opera House at Norwalk on Friday
evening, Nov. 22.—Stamford Advocate.
Similar Burglarles.
Chief Bradley is in receipt of a com-
munication from James H. Foot of the
firm Of Kearney & Foot, who had read
an accOunt of the Baird burglary. He
says that his house at New Rochelle was
burglarized between 6 and 7 o’clock on
the evening of October 31st, and a large
quantity of jewelry, etc., stolen, and
the modus-operandi was similar to that
of the Baird burglary, and he thinks
there is a probability Of both having
been the work of the same parties.
Some of the stolen goods were marked
“L. E. B.” Mr. Foot Offers $500 re—
ward for the recovery Of the goods and
arrest- aud conviction of the burglars.
The burglary took place while the
family were at dinner, and the goods
were taken away in an alligator satchel
which was marked “T. F. B.”

The Naval Militia.
In a report to the Secretary of the
Navy, Lieut. A. l". Niblack bestows
great praise on the New Haven division
of the Connecticut naval militia, whose
encampment at Niantic he attended last
summer. The State, he says, dealt
most liberally with the organization in
the matter of uniforms, arms, and ac-
coutrements, which are the very best.
The artillery drill of the division, with
ammunition and all. modern parapher-
nalia, was a model of excellence.
“The tour of duty,” he adds, “em-
phasized the importance of concentrat-
ing and combining the various organi.
zations during the annual tours. If,
next year, the naval militia of: Connecti-
cut and Rhode Island could combine
with the First Batallion of New York
foi- a week at Orient Point, L. 1., an
excellent scheme of reconnissance could
be carried out. Ships and. a .torpedo
boat could be in attendance at the
camp, and on the return home each
organization could make a boat recon-
noissance expedition of great value.”

“I was feeling as miserable as any one
could feel, tired all the time, many times
affable to go out on the street even after
I had started. If I went up one flight of
stairs I felt as though I should fall. I
had alpitation of the heart and suffered
greafly with catarrh of the head and
throat. I flnall decided to try Hood’s
Sarsaiarilla, an soon felt better. ‘I used
the t ird bottle and I then felt. like
a different person. I hope others In ill
health will do as I did. If {on take
Hood’s Sarsaparilla and use it aithfully
I am sure you will be benefited. I have
also found Hood’s Pills to be of great
benefit and I highly recommend them.”
