an oppoitunity now to show what sort
of 111ct1 11: there is in him. Whenlhc

him 3611' to punish all person who re-

more shocking story of savagery has

There is a story afloat which afl'ords
sone warrant for such inquiries. It is
to the effect that when the bond bill
was lirst outlined to the President he
cxprossed no opposition to the measure
and was evidently disposed to accept it.
itisiutimatcd, however, that his alti-
tude was changed to that of violent
hostility almost immediately after a
visit which he received from a New
York gentleman who is conspicuously
identified with the syndicate, and who
is said. to have served plain notice on
the President that his approval of the
bond bill would be regarded as a breach
of faith and an act- ot hostility by the
association of bunkers through which
the former bond issues were sold.
This blunt announcement was accom-
panied, ills said by 11 broad hint that

Prestidcnt’s signature the syndicate

It

mation of general interest
The Marriage rate per 1, 000 popula‘
tion throughout New England during
the year under review 111139 27. The
nuptial rate for Connecticut, 853 is
the lowest which obtained in any Ym—
kee state. Maine and Vermont did
only just a trifle better, but New
' . Hampshire. with a matrimonial rate of
10. 04 heads the list.
The average number of divorces to
each 100 marriage during the year was
5.8 for New England. For Connecticut
the number was 7.6, but Maine with
9.6, New Hampshire with 8.6 and Rhode
Island with 8.4 left 'l‘homis Hooker" n
commonwealth gloriously 1n the lurch.
Massachusetts, with a 1cco1'd of 3.6,
shows that the Bay strte is an uncon-
genial place for the annulment ' of mis-
fit marriages. The causes for which
divorces may be granted in'the several
states are given, and they disclose seme
suggestive variations,
Connec1icut shows a bi1th rate of 2-1.5
which IS the same as Rhode Island’s.
The only state which 0111 make a higher
showing is Massachusetts with a record
of 27 8. Of 11113121353 births in New
England during the year, 62,060 were
bpys and 58,919 were girls.
The total number of deaths was 97,-
134, making an average death rate of
19,9 to each 1,000 of population. Con-
necticut, with a rate of 19.6, is below
the average. Maine, with 18 3, has the
lowest rate, and Massachusetts, with
20 O, struds at the top of the list. .
These comparative strtistios show
that Connec‘icm is a healthy place to
live in; that a person is less liable to
get married in Connecticut than in any
other New England stale; and that the
probabilities of a married couple being
divorced are gre-rter in Connecticut
than in Vermont and Massachusctls,
but less than in Maine, New Hamp.

Away With Liveryman
.Scofield’ s Turnout.
Wanted To Drive His Best Girl to Westport. ‘
Yesterday afternoén, shortly .after
three o’clock, a natty young man about
thirty years of age, _ dark 1 complexion,
wearing eye, classes and a dark blue
overcoat and Derby hat, entered the
office of V. A. Scofield’s livery stable
at South Nor-walk and asked for a turn-
out with which to drive his young lady
friend over to Westport. -
Mr. Scofield soon had his best turn-
out hitched up and the young man seat.
ed himself in the carriage and drove
awaypromising to return in a short
time.
As ‘hour after hour passed and the
nice young man failed to return Mr.
Scofield began todet suspicious and re-
ported the matter to the police. Mes-
sages were telephoned to all the sur-
rounding towns giving a d:sc1'iptiou of
the man and turnout but as yet no clue
has been obtained.
Late last night Mr. Scofleld drove to
New Canaan in the rain in hopes of
getting t1 ack of his property but failed
to find any trace of the man or turnout.
The horse is a bay, 15-3 hands high,
weighs 1,000 pounds, has black points,
long neck and legs and a wart on off
side of body. The cu'rlage is p.311nt d
black with end sprin rs, Corning body
and running gear. T he harness is
imitation rubber trimmed.
Will Not Sue.
All talk of suing Stamford has been
abandoned by the voter-ms ofthe'l‘wen-
ty-eighth regiment, C, V. There are
300 or more veterans in the town, and
in 1863 a bounty of $1.00 each W118 pain-
iscd them for faithful services during
the Rebellion. A law passed a year
ago permitted the cohesion of bounty
claims which had been discharged pre—
viously by the statute of limitation.
Several of "the veterans have filed
sworn statements that they nchr re-
ceived the money. Receipts have, in
all instances, been produced showing
that the bountics were paid by Thomas
G. Rich in 1863, 11111111: time the boun-
ties were offered, and the soldiers went
to war. ‘ .

Organize a Local Society.
A bill authori'zilnz,r the. or ganiz =1tion of
a.- society to be made. up of the descen—
dants of the Mayflower pioneers passed
the New York legislature last week.
Of these descendants Norwalk and
South Norw'alk have a goodly number
of representatives.
So numerous also, in Norwalk and
New Canaan, are the descendants of
the early GOVernors John Haynes,
William Leeta, Robert Treat and
Thomas Fitch that a local society of
colonial officers “ Sons” and “Dames”
would have justifiable existence.

' Mesmeric Mysterits.-
A large audience greeted Prof. John
Reynolds at the Opera House last night,
'in a luughable,mystical and smiling en-
tertainment, consisting of wonderful
experiments of mental electricity.
The audience was composed largely of
ladies who seemed to be delighted.
The Professor secured but six subjects,
all of whom he succeeded in making out
up mirth provoking antics. The house
will probably be crowded to-night, to
witncas the Professor’s wonderful, .re-

merits.

A Brut-:11 Assault.
Captain Dann was advised last even-
ing that .a young.r man from Weslport
named Oscar I’cnnc'ycr had committed
an unprovoked assau't on an elderly
man named Coley, of V1 estoo, in the
Preston House on River street. He
immedlalely repaired to the scene but
experienced considerable difficulty in
finding out anything about the assault
other than that Coley had been bundled
into a carriage and taken home.
Shortly after, however, he. succeeded
in finding out that 11 number of men
had chased young Pcnnoyer up 1111 er
street, and were giving him a severe
drubbing for his assault on Coley, at 11
point near the Electric Light station.
Securing the assistance of Officer
Hunt he started for the scene, but
arrived too late to find any one interest
ed in the alloyed fracas,or that any one
had seen a fight of any kind.
1t is asserted, that no: only' did
young Peuuoyer receive a severe heat-
ing, but that he was also given 9. good
ducking in the river near by, and that
as soon as released he lost no time in
getting back to his home in Westport.
