WEDNESDAY, MARCH 22,1899.
GOOD EVENING.“
’ Old Glory was much in evidence to-
day. ‘
Hurrah for the members of CompanK
L. Welcome home boys.
. D0n’t forget that the new insane hos-
’ pital must be built in Norwalk.
Dr. Nancy Guilford’s trial will fur-
nish more food for the yellows.
The wicked as well as the good walk-
ed in slippery places this morning.
.The new consolidation charter ap-
pears to have been lostin the scramble.
The returning soldiers had a stormy
day, but Norwalk’s welcome was none
the less warm.
Bridgeport will probably need the X
rays to discover a candidate willing .to
run for mayor.
The baChelor editor of the New Ha_
ven News should bring- out his new
poem on beautiful spring.
The burning of the Windsor Hotel
was bad enough. The horrors yellow
journalism would add. are uncalled for.
The horrible crime of Mrs. Place and
the punishment will soon be forgotten,
notwithstanding the effort of the yel-
lows. ‘ , _
South Norwalk’s city council didnit
do a thing to the Street Railway com-
pany. 7 Some people want more than
the earth, V
An exchange wants to know if the po-
uncéfi'sky Will be clear by 1900. We
= don’t know. The spring blizzardkill-
ed all the weather prophets in this sec-
tion. _'__
The trolleys contributed a generous
supply of fireworks this morning. How-
ever, ice on the tracks and feed wires
has no terrors for Norwalk’s enterpris-
ing companies.

THE OTHER FELLOWS.
Carbolic ahid is becoming fashionable
with Bridgeport men and women who
seek to shuffle Oh? the mortal coil. They
are very thoughtful of recovery, how-
ever. when they take the acid in milk.
Bridgeport Telegram,
To many observers it looks as if the
next Democratic national convention
would be more of a bear garden than
any of its predecessors—Hartford Post.
This month has proved to be, thus far,
about the meanest month of March, for
its weather, that the oldest inhabitant
can remember.-——Hartford Times.
Spain has unloaded a, pretty tough
cargo on the American ship of State;
but Uncle Sam is able to take. care of
himself, and should the cargo prove en-
tirely bad, he will throw it overboard.
Albany Press Knickerbocker.
Wiliiam J. Bryan is apparently satis-
fied that he will yet be elected to the
presidency without the electoral vote
-»of New York. Before that hope is
satisfied the colonel will have gray
hair and walk with a. stoop—Syracuse
Herald. ' ‘
As a rebuke to Mr. Bryan, the young
Texas woman who asked but failed to
get a kiss from him, has just been
married. She probably wanted to
show the world and Mr. Bryan that
there was aman who couldn’t resist
her.‘New York Telegram.
There is nothing the matter, with
Chicago beef. The military board
{could see this without going to the
stock yards. It was necessary only to
take a look at the people who eat it.—
Chicagolnter-Ocean.
-—-——‘~
he will get used to it, and be a taughe r
man afterwardsr—Brooklyn Citizen.
A New York clergyman is determin-
ed to make women remove their bon-
nets during services in his church.
This is his order, right in the face of
Easter and newly acquired headgear.
He is indeed a brave man.—Meriden
Journal. ‘ ‘
That dollar dinner, to express con-
tempt of one wing of Democracy for
another, measure the intellectuals of
the Bryan faction pretty accurately.
What is a nomination going to be
worth to any Democrat with the East
and West divided beyond _.repair.—-
We believe that capital punishment
ought to be abolished. The Almighty
who gives life ought to be left to take-
it away again in his own good time.
The s'everest penalty inflicted by human
agency should be that which deprives
a human being of‘ liberty during nat—'
ural life—New Haven Leader.
Wenre in favor of having the votes
counted once and ., then' d’estrbyed."
Wherever this system is practiced,
it is found more satisfactory than
any other. It conduces to careful
counting, because the result once an-
nounced is irrevocable. For the same
reason it 00nduces to honest counting.
The scrutiny bestOWed upon a final
count makes dishonesty more difficult.
-—Waterbury American.
Thevbig fire in New York, the fatal
total of which is not as yet known, has
in it the same old moral. The build-
ing must have been very inflammable
to go in the way it did. People will
continue to crowd into such structures,
however. Perhaps they may be more
careful for a short time, but the Wind-
sor horror will soon be forgotten and
the same risks will be taken.—~New
Britain Herald.
The man, who, when he arrives at a
hotel, begins to see how he could get
out of it and inquires for the fire escapes
and the stairways, is at once set down
as acrank. People laugh at him and
affect to despise himas a coward; but
he'is only doing his simple duty and by
this information is putting himself in
the way to save the lives of some of the
optimistic idiots who know everything
is right until they find themselves in
hopeless difficulty—Hartford Courant.

Pocket Pickinlg' in London.
Pocket picking is an occupation that
admits of a vast display of ingenuity.
While disclaiming any particular merit
for,that_ country, says a London paper.
it is an indisputable fact that again
England is in the van of all nations in
that her pickpockets hold their own
against all foreign competition. In
London alone over 100,000 men, women
and children gain their daily bread en-
tirely by this unscrupulous mode of
living.
To Float Stranded VOA-cu.-
Vessels can be easily removed from
sandbars by a new apparatus consist-
ing of an endless’chain of buckets to be
attached to the sides of the vessel and
driven by engines to excavate the sand
from around the hull until the ship
floats free. , --
Remarkable Rescue.
Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield,Ill.,
makes the statement, that she caught
cold, which settled on her lungs; she
was- treated for a month by her fam~
ily physician, but grew worse. He
told her she was a hopeless victim of
consumption and that no medicine
could cure her. Her druggist suggest-
ed Dr. King’s New Discovery for Con-
sumption; she bought a bottle and to
her delight found herself benefitted
f. om first dose. She continued its use
and after taking six bottles, found her-
self somewhatwell; now does her own
housework, and is as well as she ever
was. Free trial bottles of this Great
Discovery at John A. Riggs’ drug
