Much Ado About Nothing.
Immediately after the town caucus
nominations last week, the GAZETTE
had the tickets set up and placed upon
a galley in readiness to be published
with the city tickets as soon as they
were completed.
At the time there was a conference
going on between representative Re-
publicans from the First and Second
' districts relative to placing the name
of Ephraim Thomes first on the ticket,
and it was thought that an agreement
to that effect would be reached.
With this iii-view the name of Mr.
Thomes was placed first on the ticket
and the galley laid. one side until Sat-
urday. The conference, however,
failed to agree, and on Saturday when
the tickets were. published the matter
was placed ‘in the form without the
names being reversed, although one
.had just as much legal right to appear
first as the other.
The publication of Mr. Thomes’ name
in first position caused a severe pain to
strike several of Norwalk’s small but
mouth y politicians and they have been
howling around until their infection
struck Isaac street and caused that no-
toriously “unscrupulous” individual to
forget himself and attempt to make
‘ others believe him honest.

Isn’t it remarkable, when a man be-

school with him. _
When a woman is so busy that she

It is strange how much one finds to

What an effort it is to write only a few
lines once a month to the wrong one.
The Very swell man has abandoned

Strange as it may sound, the theatre

A ‘Carelessly Driven Team
Causes Serious Results.
Joseph Miller MeetsWith An Aocidmt
Near Fairfield.
Three wheelmen on the road to Fair-
field from Bridgeport Sunday night,
met withasad accident which came
very near proving fatal to two of them.
It appears that Ollie Gould, 'of Fair-
field, and Joseph Miller, of South Nor-
walk, were riding along the Fairfield
road, near Ash Creek, and'when near
the residence of Henry Craft, 3. three-
seated surrey driven by a man and con-
taining some women suddenly loomed
up before the wheelmen. The team
was on the left side of the road and in
the track of the wheelmen. Before
the latter eould'turnfiaside a collision
occurred. Gould . and Miller were
knocked down and trampled on by the
horse and both wheels more or less in-
jured. The driver stopped his team,
but refused to give his name. Mr.
Gould was rendered unconscious and
was removed to the Craft house. Mil-
ler was also‘badly hurt. The former
was injured in his side and the latter
severely bruised about the body.
Later both men were taken to Mr.
Gould’s home and Dr. Ewing summon-
ed. It is thought that Mr. Gould has
sustained internal injuries from which
he may not recover. Had the team
been on the right side, where it be-
longed, the accident would not have
occurred. An effort is being made to
learn the name of the owner of the
feam, when at suit for damages will fol—

New Bank in Wilton.
John Davis, of Wilton, employed in
Lounsbury, Mathewson & Co. ’s shoe
factory, at South N orwalk, went home
Saturday night,‘ and on the way stopped
for his cow and drove it home. He left
the cow standing in the back yard, took
off his coat and threw it across the fence
and then went into the house after his
milk pail. When he returned there
was a piece of the coat only a foot
square left, the cow having eaten up
the garment, together with a brand
new commut’atidn ticket to South N or-
ivalk: a leather wallet containing 3.

HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours ; a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back, is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.
WI-I 11‘ To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer‘s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
fulfills every wish in relieving pain in
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. _ It
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad ef-
fects following use of liquor, wine or
beer. and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urin-
ate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
It stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases. If
you need a medicine you should have
the best. Sold by druggists, price fifty
cents and one dollar. You may have a
sample bottle and pamphlet both sent
free by mail. Mention THE GAZETTE,
and send your address to Dr. Kilmer &
Co, Binghamton, N. Y. The pro-
prietors of this paper guarantee the
genuineness of this affair.
