GOOD EVENING. Baby Hill was squally Sunday after- noon. , ' The Wall street lamps seem to hang to their wool tenaciously. N orwalk has a boot black who goes without saying. He’s deaf and dumb. The Bridgeport Standard is having a bout with the Fire Devil. ' We will ' bet on the Standard. The Bakers’ dance in Arion hall Saturday night is said to have raised a good deal of dough. That scheduled snow storm took a tack and went off about its business and left us to enjoy a beautiful Sunday. Of course the birthday party does not tempt women to go shy when put- ting coppers into the bag. The good skating on the several pond 5 may have been responsible for the small attendance at Sunday school yes- terday. We would suggest to our morning contemporary that patents are issued by the United States government, and on Tuesday’s. _ Mayor Taylor says no more boxing matches in Bridgeport for the present. If the mayor had issued this order a week ago there would havebeen sever- al sports in that city with more money than at present. A number of friends have asked us why“ we do not reply to the character- ,scribbler who is anonymously attempting to injure our business. To these inquiring friends we would say that the offender is in such a pitiable condition, both mentally and physical- ly that he has our sympathy rather than our enmity. Among decent people his enmity is preferable to his friendship, and his attempts to injure the GAZETTE only result in bringing to us more staunch friends. He is rapidly ap- proaching that and where his “roast- ing” will be much more effectual than anything we could attempt and we prefer to allow him to wallow in his gutter of abuse alone. --——-—-—‘I-O>———-—— _ Story of a Slave. To be bound hand and foot for years by the chains of disease is the worst form of slavery. George D. Williams of Manchester, Mich, tells how such a slave was made free. He says: “My wife has been so helpless for five years that she could not turn over in bed alone. After using two bottles of Elec- t1 ic Bitters, she is wonderfully im- proved and able to do her own work. ’s This supieme nemedy for female dis- eases quickly cures nervousness, sleep- lessness, melancholy, headache, back- ec'ne, fainting and dizzy spells. This miracle working medicine is a godsend to weak, sickly, run down people. Every bottle gua1anteed. Only 50c. Sold by John A. Riggs, druggist,11 Main street W TH E 0TH ER FELLOWS. Next summer we will eat of the Klondike squash and admire the bean- ties of the Dewey aster.—'-Bridgeport Post. - Perhaps the beef contractors deserve to be commended for not charging ex- tra for the,chemicals.—Syracuse Her- ald. The next thing will he a millionaii'e trust, formed to lessen the cost of tgetting elected to the senate—Water- bury Democrat. It is nota foreign foe, but the do- mestic politicians, whom the Amer- ican army and navy, regulars and re- serves, have to fear.——Chicago Rec- 0rd. Mille. Zarmac, a snake charmer, has secured a divorce from George Diamond. “the Klondike baritone,” who was her husband. Probably his voice caused her love to grow cold. -— ' Albany Journal. . M . Itis reported that many American soldie s have found their affinities amon’ the. Filipino girls and are e1;- gagedto marry them~anothe1gindi~ cation that the Filipino is not as black 1 as he’ s painted. --Troy Standard. . Congressman George B. McClellan is TH- E E v EN 1 N a? (.1 Afz-ET‘T E for an army of 100,000 men, organized, like a perfect machine and responsible to a single head. The young man seems to have the military instincts of his father before hi1n.—~Boston Herald. This debate in the senate over our naval heroes is another - thing which causes the unskillful to laugh and the judicious to grieve. War is not so ter— rible a thing as the post-mortem inves- tigation.——Waterbury American. . The professors of music may turn up their professional noses at the old- fashioned hymns and tunes as much as they like. They cannot make ordinary folks follow their example. These good old hymns will outlive their crit- icsthrough- generations yet un- born—Boston Herald. Once in every little while the whole country indulges in a winking stage re- garding prize fights. It is in one of these stages just now.—Derby News. A few days ago, the lower house of the Delaware legislature adopted a humerohs resolution ordering one of its members to get married within thirty days. This is a species of sumptuary legislation which we 1magine will prove popular with the girls, but the object of it is mighty apt to kick. —-AnsOnia Sentinel. It isablessed reliéf to know that the senate of the United States has seta date for voting on the peace treaty. Those speeches, pro and con, aregetting to be monotonous—Nerf den Republican. The Hill hill is a comprehensive and intelligent measure, and is the first gen- eral bill in several years to escape be- ing stifled in the committee on coin- age. The significant and encouraging sign is the fact that the entire Repub- lican strength of the committee fa- vored the bill. To expect a reform measure to pass congress this session would he, no doubt, to expect too much but an important move has been made in the right direction, and in accord- ance with Republican pledges and pub- lic duty. —Philadelphia Ledger ‘4 v‘ VW BEI: IBDLESS 0F AGE. The kidneys are responsible for more , sickness, s11ii'e1ing, and deaths than any other O1gans of the body .

The symptoms of kidney trouble are unmistakable, such as rheumatism, neuralgia, sleeplessuess, pain or dull ache in the back, a desi1 e to urinate often day or night, profuse or scanty suppl 1’- U1ic acid, or brick-dust deposit in urine are signs of clogged kidneys, causing poisoned and germ-filled blood. Sometimes the heart acts badly, and tube casts (wasting of the kidneys) are found' 1n the urine, which if neglected will result in Bright’s Disease, the most dangerous form of kidney trouble.
