Just after midnight this morning

on the docks while cars being switched
into the Naugatuck yard at Bridgeport

”discovered the body of a man lying

alongside of the Rosedale freighthouse

The Gazette’s Extra.

The GAZETTE EXTRA issued at day-
light this morning, surpassed anything
ever before placed before the readers of
NOrwalk. The result of the election in
town was given in full and the vote in
all surroun ling towns correctly chron-
icled. There was no old matter in the
make up and its celumns bristled with
special advertisements.

Other local dailies put out extras, but
the GAZETTE was far ahead of them all,
being the only paper to give the vote
in every state in the Union. When its
newsboys were shouting "GAZETTE
EXTRA, full account of the election,”
they were not offering a fake.

Our special returns sent direct from
headquarters in New York, was a fea-
ture that no other local journal enjoyed,
and copies of the GAZETTE were eagerly
sought after by those desiring to get
full and correct information of the re-
suit.

No company that we have ever heard
of has ever come to our city with such
favorable couriers as Lillian Kennedy
in “The Deacon’s Daughter.” They
have the unanimous endorsement of the
New York Press ; and this, you may
rest assured, will be your only chance
to see this superior compan v. We have
no doubt of their success here.

day. Both he and the aged Mr. Stan-

The Hour says there was a dense
crowd at the first district polling place
at 7 O’clock this morning. It was the
reporter who seemingly was dense.
Toe crowd spoken of was not a "dense”
but an intelligent one.

Stephen Stanley, aged 93 years, and
a voter for 71 years, cast his vote for
McKinley. He has always been a sound
Democrat and cast his first vote for
John Quincy Adams. He has enjoyed
theprivilego of voting for twenty pres-
idents.

The election returns were announced
from the stage at the Opera House last
night, where N ed Harrigan was making
an audience laugh as only Ned knows
how. He would cause:his Satanic ma-
]esty to “smile” if he had the price

 

with him.

How to Cure 3. Severe Cold.

.A few weeks ago the editor was taken
With a very severe cold that caused him to
be in amost miserable condition. It was
undoubtedly a bad case of la grippe and
recognizing it as dangerous he took imme-
diate steps to bring abouts. speedy cure.
From the advertisement of Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy and the many good recom-
mendations included therein, we concluded
to make a first trial of the medicine. To
say that it was satisfactory in its results, is
putting it very mildly, indeed. It acted
1ke magic and the result was a speedy and
permanent cure—The Banner of Liberty,
