' The Whole Place Illuminated. 'Rowayton was the scene, Saturday night, of a dazzling and enthusiastlc sound money demonstration. Nearly every house and place .of business was], illuminated and the sight was truly a pleasing one. . The procession which comprised the South Norwalk Gold Legion, Itoway— ton Mortar company in uniform, hun- dreds of citizens, fantastics, etc., was headed by the Philharmonic band of South Norwalk, and in the same was the Darien drum corps, Along the entire line of march the decorations were all that could be de- sired and were dazzling in brightness and the efi'ect one that will not soon be forgotten by the residents of that place. , Among the decorations worthy of special mention were those at the resi- dences of Harry Pepper, Theophile Euphrat and Alphonso Dibble. In front of two cottagesapretty conceit was the placing of flames of fire in such a way that the names of McKinley and Hobart were brought in a resplendent manner. One business man threw out albanner in front of his house near the depot, which read, “Sound Money Democrat.” - .,The parade was witnessed by hun- dreds of people many of them being from out of town. After the marching ’ was over the parades were treated to a lunch of sandwiches and hot coffee. o Ex-Gov. Waller’s Opinions. Ex-Gov. Waller was in New Haven . Saturday. A Leader man saw him and tried to obtain an interview ’fl‘om him, but the governor said he had nothing special 'to say except that he felt pleased over the result; that he was proud of Connecticut. He did, however: answer the reporter’s questions as follows: ’ Q.—What is the fate of the Demo- cratic party in Connecticut likely to be? A.—Our party will recover soon. Our country is all right now. ' Q.—What effect will the election of McKinley have on the industries of the country. A.——If a man is not able to make money in the next three years he never will be. Q.—Now that McKinley is elected what are the prospects in regard to street railwuys, particularly in Connec- ticut? A.—I don’t know nor care. good to consider such trifles. Q.—~Is the National Democratic or- ganization in Connecticut likely to be maintained. _ A'Z—I should say it was; not only in Connecticut, but in every state of the 'JUnion. ‘ The National Democracy is Democ- racy purged of Populism, socialism, sectionalism and the 16 to 1 ism, and nocther sort of Democracy can sur- vive the flood of ’96 Wright Bound Over. William Wright of Bridgeport, who assaulted gatetender William Olmstead, aged 62, in Stamford Thursday night, hadatrial there Saturday night and was found guilty of assault with intent to kill. He was bound over under bonds of $500. Wright’s only defence was that he did not remember having committed the assault. He went to Stamford from Bridgeport early in the day to- see his brother. The latter, however, had left for New York the previous week, and he spent the balance of the time visiting saloons and'became too intoxicated to remember anything. 0 Hurt in a Hack.

Griffin, while returning from a funeral at Bridgeport, was upset by the carelessness of the driver and was then run into by an electric car.

CENTRALCIQBNOTES Afternoon of Folk Studies and Folk Songs a Great Success.‘ The Millinery Classes Forming. The “Afternoon of Folk Studies and Folk Songs” given at the Central Club Saturday, by Mme. Olga Burgtorf, Mezzo-Soprano, Mr. Edwin Star Belk- nap, Reader, and Mr. Harvey Worth- ington Loomis, Composer and Pianist, is unique and original in conception, and was carried out with exquisite delicacy and taste. It: needs-i knowledrm and persistence to rind specimens of songs and stories so interesting and il- lustrative of the life of the people of a dozen different countries, and a wide range of talent to interpret them with such sincerity and skill. Far more than a passing interest must attach to such a performance, for one finds one’s knowledge increased, .and one‘s sympathies quickened by hearing the music of a country and listening to its stories. It would be difiicult to find interpreters better ad- apted by nature and art to so delicate a task. Mme. Burgtopt is not only a thorough artist, with a voice of pecul- iar and thrilling sweetness, but an ex- quisite personality, with the quick tact and sympathy to feel and to make others feel. Nothing more enchanting can be imagined than her intuitive way of throwing herself into the Irish, French, Swiss, Chinese, German. and American Folk-songs. Her stage pres. once is a rare possession. She is ab- solutely simple, with the simplicily of genuine feeling, her one desire being the desire of the artist to have her aud- ience feel the message she brings. Mr. Loomis’ accompaniments are per- fect, and his negro folk-song, in darkey dialect, so exquisite, as to make you long for more. Mr. Belknap is thor- oughly well equipped for his work, and is very happy in his selections which range from grave to gay. His voice is melodious, his pronunciation and spun! ciation cultivated, and he gains the in- terest and sympathy of his hearers at once. Almost every number on the bill was enthusiastically encored. This program is an ideal one for the parlor performances for morning or afternoon, so much in vogue to-day. The management of the Club have arranged for two classes in Millinery, under Mrs. M. M. Meeker, Wednesday mornings at 10, and Wednesday after- noons at 1:30. Those wishing to espec- ially belong to either divison will please give theirnames to Mrs. James G. Greg- ory, or Miss Pinneo, that, if possible, there may be an equal number in each division. Absurdity of Walking Delegate Rule. There is a strike in New York city on one of the big down town buildings which reveals a curious state of things. The painters at work there are not only painting but varnishing. The Var- nishers’ Union regard this as an inva- sion of their rights and so the various unions represented in the board of walking delegates have gone out on strike leaving the whole field to the painters. Hymeneal. Miss Helena G. Hill, daughter of Congressman and Mrs. E. J. Hill, is to be married at her Norwalk home on December 16th, to Mr. Walter H. Weed of ‘Middlebrook,’ and of the U. S. Geo- logical Survey. The groom has been chief of a government surveying party the past season in Montana. Last year he was surveying in Alaska. 0 Norwalk Opera House. One of the most sympathetic stories, surrounded by the brightest and drol- lest comedy of any similar play is “Coon "Hollow" to be produced at the Opera House, Wednesdny next. The com- pany is composed of ladies and gentle- men who have won their position by positive merit. ' IO. Took A Header. A man named Cornelius Fitzpatrick of Stamford, while riding down the hill at the Armory yesterday, on a bicycle, suffered a fall. He was picked up and taken to the hospital in a coach. His injuries were not of a serious nature and soon after he was able to leave that institution and return to his home. Parade in Westport. There will be a big sound money parade in Westport, to-morrow night and Dwyer’s City of Norwalk band with twenty-five pieces has been engaged for the occasion. .- The Pequonnock 'c'lub has also accepted an invitation to ,take part in the parade. Two; Runs: RESULT. Carl Schaub and Sarah Larri- gan Appear Befdre Judge Frost. Both Receive Heavy Fines. A few days since the places conducted at South Norwalk by Sarah Larrigan and Carl Schaub received tne attention of the police of that city with the re- sult that the former was placed under arrest for violation of [the liquor law and the latter on the charge of con- ducting a gambling resort. An account of the visit of the police apptared in these columns at the time. This morning there was a hearing in the cases at the Town court before Judge Frost. ‘ Mr. Schaub through his attorney en- tered a demurer which was overruled. He then refused to plead and the Judge fined him $50 and costs, from which (1le cision an appeal was taken by his at- torney, George Honnecker, and the case will be tried at Bridgeport. In the case of Sarah Larrigan a demurrer was also entered and over- ruled. She was found guilty and fined $70, and the case was continued until to-morrow morning to give the defen- dant an Opportunity to settle up or take an appeal. o. FRAUD ORDER lSSUED. All. Letters Addressed to the National Neckwear Co. Are Stamped Fraudulent.

Sergeant Good Times Here Already asa Result of McKinley and Hobart’s Election. From all sections of the Union and cepecially in the New England and great central states, come the glad tidings thatidlc men are being again set to work in factories, and on public and private works, and that business has already experienced a new awaken- ing. ,Many hitherto closed and idle factories and shops report orders re- ceived since election necessitating work- ing nights as well as days. ' - New York papers state that every trade and every business in that great city report an increase more or less great, consequent upon the confidence inspiring result of last Tuesday’s elec- tion. Orders began to pour in the next day after election and merchants pro- claim that confidence and old-time prof- itable trade conditions have been re- stOred.” ‘ .» ti‘ ' * n - .
