When Ex-Sman Daskam
Must Pay the Town or
Stand Suit
SL000 Demanded by Captain Ike.
After the present board of Selectmen
came into office they began an in-
vestigation into the books of the town»
as kept by ex-sele’ctman Samuel Das-
kam. As the work progressed the
deficit appeared to grow larger and
Selectman Selleck now estimates that a
large sum of the town’s money was mis-
appropriated.
After sufficient evidence, as Select-
man Selleck believed, of the deficit was
obtained, Mr. Daskam was sent for and
the matter presented to him, and he
then turned over to Town Treasurer
Curtis quite a sum of money.
It now appearing to the board that
there is a much larger shortage than at
first supposed, they'have made a de-
mand upon Mr. Daskam for a further
refunding.
The Selectmen claim that the
amount of shortage is very large, but
they are willing to compromise the
matter upon payment into the town
treasury by ‘Mr. Daskam of $1,000.
This offer was submitted to Mr.
Daskam by Levi Warner, the town’s at-
' torney, several weeks since and a speci-
fied time given for its payment which
has now 'nearly expired.
In case Mr. Daskam fails to accept
the proffered terms Mr. Warner has
been instructed to bring suit to recover
whatever shortage is found to exist. .
The alleged shortage is claimed to
run into the thousands.
Spontaneous Combustion.
Mike O’Donnell is as honest, hard-
working a son of Erin as ever graced
Spring Hill, but poor Mike has a strong
weakness for fire-water. He is so tail
that it takes a big lot of it and a long
time to get him drunk all over, but
whenever his whiskey tank overflows,
he simply gets paralyzed all through
hishard on to seven feet of latitude
and longitude. Yesterday he had a
day of it and last evening while wend-
ing his tangled way up Belden avenue,
he became so overheated that he blazed
up in a sort of Fourth of July corruscaa-
tion. A man on the street, ran to
Mike’s assistance supposing it to be a
case of spontaneous combustion or else
an attempt to ratify the nominee of the
Chicago convention the same as Malone
was doing. But after putting Mike’s
blazing blazer out, it was found he had
put his lighted pipe into his cotton-
lined pocket and he was simply avictim
of fire-water and misplaced confidence.
Poor Mike had a narrow escape from a _
serious scorching in addition to a
ruined coat.

Another Convention.
“The sound-money man will issue a
call for another convention,” said Gov-
ernor Waller. “It may take several
weeks to perfect our plans.” '
Ex Governor Flower acted as the
spokesman of the New York delegation.
Mr. Flower, when asked for his opinion
of the nomination of Bryan, said: ,
“The nominee fills the platform.
There can be no doubt what the one or
the other means. Both go well togeth.
er, and neither is better nor worse than
the other.”

Fire Police.
The N orwalk Fire police the first
body of its kind ever organized in the
State, held a regular meeting last night
and elected Judge James T. Hubbell to
represent them at the State Firemen’s
convention, with W. F. DeKlyn as al-
ternate. It was the company’s first
meeting in their new quarters. Captain
Meeker has his 'men well drilled and
their services are alway’s found valuable
at fires. .
A Blazcn Smashup.
William Adams who has been in New
York state for some days introducing a
washing powder called Blazon, was the
victim of an accident at Tarrytown,
yesterday. A runaway team crashed
' into a wagon load of Blazon wrecking
a wheel and filling the air With the
popular washing compound. The horse
was also severely hurt. Mr. Adams
came home last night but will return at
Tarrytown. on Monday. '

Democratic Newspapers Deny
The Chicago Platform.
Follow the Lead of the New York Sun.
The secession from the Democratic
party, which was inaugurated by the
New York Sun, has been continued in
Connecticut by the Hartford Times, for
40 years more or less, a Democratic
newspaper, and the New Haven Regis-
ter, a Democratic newspaper in the
neighborhood of 84 years.
The Register says:
“The Register can neither accept for
its own guidance, nor recommend to its
readers the hysterical and unsound
platform of prejudices adopted at Chi-
cago yesterday. We reafl‘irm our alle-
giance to the Hartford Democracy,
adopted June 10, which at least pre-
serves one’s self-respect and honor.
We prefer this bridge tothat which
makes for distress first and anarchy
after.”
The Times says:
The Hartford Daily Times was es-
tablished fifty-five years ago to advo-
cate Democratic principles and hard
money. It has never advocated any-
thing else, and it will not change its
course now that the-control of the
Democratic organization has passed
temporarily, by fraud and violence, in-
to tbs hands of men who apparently
inten to use it for the purpose of re-
pudiating public and private debts,
scaling down the wages of the working-
men of the country, fiand dishonoring
the good name and faith of the United
States. The Hartford Times cannot
support the platform or candidates of
the Chicago Convention for the reason
that it will continue to be a Democratic
newspaper.
Their example will be followed by a
number of other Democratic news-
papers, among them, probably the
Bridgeport Farmer. The independ-
ent newspapers of the state including
the Bridgeport Union will also declare
against free silver at a ratio of 16 to 1.
Outside of Connecticut many influen-
tial journals have bolted, notably The
Boston Herald, Louisville Courier—
Baltimore Sun and News, Springfield
Republican, Albany Argus, Brooklyn
Eagle, Providence J onrnal, etc.

CONNECTICUT TOBACCO.
This State Holds Second Place as arro-
ducer of the Fragrant Leaf.
Connecticut still holds up the reputa-
tion so long sustained for growing one of
the largest and best crops of tobacco of
any state in the Union. She now holds
second place, with Pennsylvania firet.
The tobacco raised in Connecticut is
used Hr’postly for wrappers on cigars and
the avana is only used for filling. The
tobacco raised here is selling at all sorts
of prices. It seems that the crop of ’92
is worth its weight in gold, and if a
farmer by chance runs across a piece of
’92 tobacco he considers himself ex-
tremely fortunate.
In Pennsylvania the tobacco product
has been very large. Last year 64,500,-
000 pounds were raised and sold in that
state alone. In New York state very
little tobacco is raised. Its chief place
is in Corning. It is considered a very
nice tobacco and is in great demand.
The leaf tobacco raised in Connecti-
cut in ’92 brought 15 cents per pound
that year. It is worth over 45 cents.
About 700,000 farmers are actively
engaged in raising tobacco in the Uni
ted States. -

“Tim” McCarty Meets With
an Accident on Riverside
Avenue.
Taken to the Hospital for Repairs.
' “Tim” McCarthy was driving through
Riverside avenue at an early hour this
morning when the carriage collided
with a hitching post and with a sad-
denness that precipitated McCarthy
headlong into the street.
The horse ran to the Washington
street bridge crossed the same at the top
of his speed and was brought to a stand-
still on Washington street by Ofiioer
Pennington.
McCarthy was found in a semi-con-
scious state near the sidewalk and Dr.
Baker was summoned, He sent for the
ambulance and the victim of the acci-
dent was taken to the hospital, where
aside from a few bruises it was found
that his injuries were more of the na-
ture of an overloaded stomach and a
bewildered brain. . ,.
He will be discharged from the hos.
pital and can thank his lucky stars that
the result was not of a more serious
nature.

The King of Eels.
George W. Jennings, of Jennings’
place, Friday morning received one of
the greatest scares of his life, although
he was for several years an active rail-
road man.
placing sst lines in the creek for the
capture of eels. In drawing his lines
yesterday morning he struck one that
he was unable to budge scarcely a foot.
Being an experienced fisherman he
knew that there was life at the part of
the line which was in the water.
He pulled hard and steadily and after
about fifteen minutes, hard work suc-
ceeded in landing what he thought to
be a sea serpent. Its size and writhings
caused him to turn pale and tremble._
Regaining his courage he succeeded in
getting the serpent about fifty feet
from the shore and rolled a rock weigh-
ing 100 pounds on top of it.
He then went for an axe with which
he succeeded‘ in killing the serpent.
Further investigation developed the
fact that it was an eel and that it
weighed nearly seven pounds.

Wins the Booby Prize.
William Jennings Bryan, the “boy
orator,” so completely hypnotized the
crazy mob of free silveritee with his
florid eloquence, that they spurned all
others and gave him the booby prize of
an empty nomination. The convention
then adjourned without selecting a vice
presidential nominee until to-day.
Bryan was born in Salem, 111., March
19 1860. He graduated from the Illinois
State College, and studied law in the
office of Lyman Trumbull. He moved
to Lincoln, Nebraska, in the year 1887.
He was elected to the 52d and 53d
Congress, and made a wide reputation
as a stump speaker. It was in Congress
in 1892 that he won the title of “boy
orator,” in his smart and grandilcquent
reply to Dingley of Me. on the tariff
question. He is a most captivating
orator and apt phrase-coiner. He is
Editor of the Omaha World and never
has a doubt about himself. His
speeches exhilarate without wearying
with any burden of ideas or logic. As
one said, who enjoyed hearing him
speak, “his oratory is like soda-water,
it pleases, exhilarates, fizzes, sparkles
and is gone, before you know it.” He
made a helpful speech for Amos Cum-
mings, last fall in New York, and
all in all is a most pleasing personality.
The fact that he is to be “snowed un-
der” won’t dampen his ardor a whit.

Worms that are "Fire Proof In-
vade Belden HiII Farms.
And the Fight Goes Merrily 0n.
- ’ One day this week employees on the
”farm of Julian Gregory mowed a field
of grass, and were not a little surprised
later 'on to find that the entire lot had
been invaded by an army of worms,
which resisted all attempts to destroy
them. .
A heavy road roller was brought into
requisition and was run over the field
for the purpose of crushing out the life
of the worms but was as inefi'ectu-al as
would have been an ordinary rolling pin.
Other methods were tried to exter-
minate the worms, all of which failed,
and finally as a last resort it was de-
cided to set fire to the hay and burn
the pests out. This method was only a
partial success.'
Loads of straw were then carted onto
and spread over the field and then set
on fire. This too failed of the desired
result.
It is said that the worms eat all kinds
of grain off close to the roots and lay
low the stalks.
It is further stated that the only
farms thus far attacked by the pests are
those upon which have been sowed
Hungarian grass seed. Nevertheless
there is an anxious look on the face of
every farmer in,that section when he
walks over his fields in the morning.
It is verily believed that the worms will
attack every farm in Wilton. Re-
mar'ked one land owner of that town to
a GAZETTE reporter this morning, “I
would not have them on my property
for $5,000.” But dollars are of no ac-
count with worms.

Sensible Repairs.
Selectman Selleck has had the Cross
street iron' bridge reinforced and
strengthened by laying down latterly,
upon the drive way a new section of
planking, which serves to strengthen
and brace the whole bridge while'
rendering the spaces on either side
used for foot passage and also the par-
tially worn road-bed, more safe and
free from vibration. _ ‘

' BISMARCK AT'EIGHT'Y-‘ONE.
Odd Bits of Humor and Reminiscence
from the Exile of Friedricharuh.
Bismarck receives comparatively few
strangers now, and consequently the
vast number of speeches and interviews
which in former years came from
Freidrichsruh has dwindled to only an
occasional remark or a story.
German purveyor of Bismarckiana has
found his occupation almost gone, al-
though but a. year or two ago he was
able to fill columns with the latest in-
formation from the Saxon forest. Here
are about all the odds and ends of an-
ecdote that he has been able to gather
since the Prince’s eighty- first birthday,
on April 1.
A professor at luncheon with Bis-
marck about three weeks ago remarked
that the Prince’s special knowledge of
mediaeval history and geography was
amazing. ,
“Oh, yes,” was the old Chancellor’s
reply; “if I had not leafed so much in
my youth and had' only learned to sit
more industriously in a chair I might
' have amounted to something.”
Bismarck spoke of the German lack
of aggressiveness and self esteem in the
days before the conquest of Austria and
France. He often had felt, he said,
that a German never would be able to
feel the proper amount of confidence in
himself, He had changed his mind,
however, after meeting Richard Wag-
ner, the composer. Wagner had enough
self esteem for a whole nation; he was
the most conceited German it ever had
been his pleasure to talk with.
The old Chancellor has also told an-
other drinking story, only a little one,
to be sure, yet as a Bismarck drinking
story perhaps worth repeating. He
and a. neighbor of his early manhood
had trieda whole afternoon to drink
each other under the table. Four bot-
tles each of heavy Rhine wine and five
quarts of champagne had been emptied
before Bismarck had his horse brought
to the door and made ready to start for
home. His host called two men to help
put him in the saddle. Bismarck, how-
ever, leaped into the saddle unaided,
and started off, erect and fast in his
seat, on “a swift dash down the road.
When his hat blew of he turned, rode
for it at a gallop, leaned over and
snatched it up, and then, straightening
up in his saddle. waved it to his aston-
ished friend. The next day Bismarck
went back to try to settle the question
of superiority at the cups, but his friend
declined the challenge. He said the
hat trick had discouraged him.
Schweninger is trying to persuade
Bismarck to go to Kissingen or Gastein
next summer. The change, he thinks,
would benefit the Prince's health. ' Bis-
marck, however, is determined to re-
main in Friedrichsruh.
“The railway journey is tiresome,”
he says; “but, worst of all, I always
fear now that some accident may hap-
pen to me, and I have come to the point
where I feel I must die in my own bed,
and not in a strange land.”
Since he ceased to worry over the po-
litical vagaries of the young Emperor,
the Prince has grown noticeably quieter
in mind and stronger in body. He is
again erect and strides through the
Saxon forest with the vigor of twenty
years ago. ‘ His only stimulants now
are Bavarian beer and very dry cham-
pagne.—New York Sun.
THE GOOD GOULD BOY.
The Quiet and Athletic Edwin an Excel~
' lent Man.
The “good boy” of the Gould family
is Edwin Gould. He is not a public
character like George, or a rapid young
chap like Howard, but at the same time
he is famous, in a. quiet way, as an
athlete, and has muscles of iron. He is
fond of outdoor sports, but chief among
them the rifle. He is a sharpshooter
himself, and practices almost daily in
his private range at his beautiful home
on the borders between Tarrytown and
Irvington.
\Vhen Troop A was established Ed-
win, who was a daring rider, enlisted as
private. There wasn’t a better soldier
in the ranks. But he had a weak leg,
caused by an accident when he was the
under dog in a cane rush at Columbia,
and one day he was thrown from his
horse and his kneecap broken the sec-
ond time. This ended his career in the
saddle, but he was made a captain and
inspector of rifle practice in the Seven-
ty-first, and served out his five years
enlistment with distinction, improving
the efiiciency of the regiment in marks-
manship very materially. He has since
fractured that unlucky kneecap three
times playing tennis, but he will not be
frightened away from rough sports al-
together, and he bobsledded it on the
steepest hills last winter as daringly as
if he did not have a knee in the world.—
