Local Political Notes.

James Sutherland will be the: nom-
inee for selectman,scoording to Current
rumor, on the sound money Democrat-
ic ticket. I

East N OtWr-lk Democrats, under the
able leadership of Attorney Honnecker,
will make their presence felt at the
coming Democratic Town Convention.

Harvey Kent, is, it is said, liable to

be the Hepublican nominee for Mayor,
Four of the present councilmen will be
in the field again. The vacancies will
be caused by the promotion of Mr.
Kent and the positive withdrawal of
Councilman Boyer.

Attorney Walsh’s Bridgeport speech,
is said to have been “the greatest effort
of his life” and a great success, as a
spontaneous “enthusiasm - raiser.”
VJohn emphatically contradicts the
story that he is a "spell-binder.” He
denies the allegation and drfi s the alle-
gator. '

About the usual number of Prohibi-
tionists will “vote in the 81",” the year.

Captain “Ike” and his report, made
a good impression at the Town meeting.
Captain Ike’s stifi' “backbone,” is quite
an institution.

Captain R. M. Rose, it is reported, is
seriously contemplating owning a sum-
mer home in Wilton, not for pleasureis-
sake, bnt simply as a busi'ners "in-vist-
ment.

To license or not to license. that’s the
Question.
the ills we‘have or flv to the (Bridge-
port) rum, we know not of.

Our city charter is going to be thor-
oughly overhauled this winter, if not a
newone proposed. The‘BOird of Water
Commissioners it is rumored, are to be
legislated outside of the breasthorks,
and other important changes made.

IChrist is Here.

Sometimes we are too absorbed in
society to give kny heed to the move-
ments of one who claimed to be of di-
vine origin, who said He was the Son
of God. Besides that, He is not of our
. set. He wore a single garment, they
tell us, and that was of very ordinary
material, while we wear many garments,
and all are of the best and in the ex
tremest fashion. He went bareheaded,
while we exhaust the resources of the
hatter and the milliner in our behalf.
He had not where to lay His head,
while we have town housesand country
houses, and can go wherever we list
and be sheltered in the finest and cost-
liest manner. He lived on fish and
roots and crusts of bread and spring:
water, while we have French cooks and
rausack the mirkets of‘ the world for
dainties to tempt our fickle palates, and
drink the‘rarest wines. Do you sup-
pose that we would care to bother with
such a man as He ? ,

Why, He talked with Wantons and sat
down to eat with publicans and sin-
ners, and cared nothing for society or
for the rich and powerful. Let the
poor, porertv stricken wretches go to
Him it they will, but.we have something

 

better to do than to turn out to see this,

outcast, this-humble Nazarene.

But Jesus of Naz ireth still passes by
to-day, through the world, through the
city. through the town and village and
along the country ways, and the multi-
tude still hears the sound of his voice.
Thank God, all are not deaf l

Ho, ye who yearn for better things
than IIthe world affords, and have a
great longing for a better life, a higher
ambition and a brighter hope, come out

from your homes and houses and your .

places of business, and see the gentle,
pitying Christ coming along the road,
ready and eager to do you good! Here
s the fountain of life eternal!

As you stand in your door to-day and

hoist the clamorof the streets, "do ‘thp .

mommiesof the past throng thick and
flat upon you? Are you sick in soul of

Whether it is better to bear'

 

the life you have led, the life fiill of
foolishness and vain endeavor, dark

with baffled hopes and wet with the -

tears of disappointment? Do you look
back upon a life worse than wasted,
golden hours thrown away or' devoted

. to a service that brings only remorse at

the end? Do the stains multiply upon
you soul and the mocking laughter of
devils afi'right your ears? -

Lo! here comes .One who can make
you whole once more.

comes along. Don’t be afraid of the
dust, for ye are butras the dust of the
ground compared with this majestic
figure that is new approaching; - Do
not be afraid of what people may say,
for this man with the eyes of love is

<greater than all, a king of kings. Im-

plore His mercy and infinite compas-
sion and, lo, He stops and speaks to
you! . .

Are you afi'ected with spiritual lame-
ness? Do you believe only a little bit,
just enough to make you drag along
when you might leap and jump and
run? Are you strong in words but
weak in action, bold to promise but
very slack to do? _ Do yon'wish to walk
swiftly in the way of the righteous, but
fear to attempt it because you might
fall? Beholl, here is the Eternal
Strength coming toward you. I Hobble
out and stand by the roadside and say,
“Lord, be merciful to me, a sinner.”

The feet that were nailed on Calvary’s
rugged cross have made yours so strong
that they can climb the shining heights
of immortality. The hands that dripped
blood on that dreadful hill have made
yours so strong that they can lay hold
on eternal life. Jesus hath made you
whole.

Call unto Him'and say, “Lord, I be-
lieve, help Thou my unbelief," and you
will feel His mighty arm around you,
and you shall never be unhappy any
more. He willfill your life with sun-
shine even on the darkest day, and
across the clouds of any doubt that may
appear He will hang the rainbow of
immortal hope With Christ in your
heart there will be no room for un-
happiness, no test for the soles of its

feet.

. . =Herrmann.

Herrman'n the Great, will appear at
the Norwalk Opera House on next
Wednesday evening. The field in
which Herrmann works is one in which
many performers have appeared during
the past twenty- -five years, but it is
doubtful if he has an iq'1al None of
his rivals have given such general satis-
factiou, and above. all, none of them
approach him in the neatness oi execu-
tion. What Herrmau does is With a
finish that is thoroughly artistic, and
this 1s particularly noticable in acts of
pure legerdemain where stage machin-
ery is not called into requisition. Herr-
mann Will be assisted by Adelaide Herr-
mann in her famous dance creations.
It is impossible to describe the brilliant
combination of color and motion that
made these dances the sens1tion of last
season in New York. The result of
their production has been the discovery
of a new art.

AN ENTHUSIAST.

Mr. L. Hayden of VVallonia, Ky, is en-
thusiastic in his praise of Chamberlain’s
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. He
says he has used it in histfamily for years
and can safely recommend it to the public as
the best medicine in the world for bowel
troubles. The 25 and 50 cent sizes for sale
