SATURDAY, APRIL 8, 1899. GOOD EVENING. The heavy rain last i‘night assisted the board of health in cleaning Wall street. ' ' Old Sol got ahead of his weather clerk this morning and put in an early appearance. I I There w ill p1 obably be some interéSt- ing speeches made at Monday night’s town meeting. The recent' New York weddings 2 might be said to have been great finan- cial successes. __ The crop of peaches and United States Senators seem to be a total fail- ure in Delaware this year. Municipal lighting in South Norwalk results in making the streets so dark that the police often get lost. Bicycle thieves in South Norwalk with Detectives Gladstone and Mona- han on the force ? This is too much. Perhaps the next Democratic plat- form will have a plank deciding which was the orthodox Democratic banquet. It is to be hoped that the Bridgeport recount won’t result in sending some of . the candidates further up the salt river. The result of the Bridgeport muni- cipal election has no doubt convinced several candidates that it makes con- siderable difference as to which end of a bolt one happens to be located. ‘ A-‘ ‘v 7 What Do the Children Drink? Don’ t give them tea or coffee. Have you tried the new food drink called G1ain-O. 1’ It 15 delicious and nourish- ing and takes the place of coffee. The more G1 am -0 you give the Children the more health you distribute through their systems. G11 ain-U is made of pure grains, and when properly p1 epared tastes like the choice grades of coffee but costs about 1- as much. All 011oeers sellit. 15c and9 50. THE OTHER FELLOWS. Aguinaldo is beginning to think Gen. Otis has oil of mustard in his gloves—- Minneapolis Times. It is positively depressing to see how some of the girlsfihave stopped kissing heroes and gone calmly back to pug dogs—Washington Star. “The uses of adversity are sweet” on- l y when the lesson taught in sorrow and travail are remembered in the hour of prosperity and happiness—Troy Sun. ‘ “Fwat is th’ matter with your face?” “Oi wor thrown from me carriage. But tuk th’ condoocher an’ motorman, the both of them, to do it, bedad. ”—Indian- apolis Joui1na1. ' We pledge ourselves not to violate the new law forbidding a pe1son to catch more than 30 trout in a single day —although it.will require much self- restraint on our para—Waterbury Re- publican. ‘ I This is the. season of the year when the amateur gardener feels quite sure that it will be perfectly easy for him to keep the weeds down this summer, if he only begins in time—Somerville Journal Where, 0 where, is the calamity howler? Since the improvement in business and industry all over the country he has dropped out of sight. He will probably bob up in 1900, but who will believehim then‘P—Springfield Union. “But,” protested Adam, “you have been satisfied hitherto with" your pres- ent garb.” “That's like a manl” exclaimed Eve. “Do you suppose a woman never wants a change ? I want a new spring leaf. I’ve been Wearing this fall leaf long enough.”v—,-North American. “I expect to go on in the fight,” says William J. 'Bryan, “and .I don’t care whether I ever win.” icent, but it will hardly suit the Dem- ocratic patriots who, as Allen G. Thur- man used to say, “want to go in and ~ warm their toes. ”Syracuse Herald. Dr. Kennedy thinks that because he biceps nights he has shown evidence of innocence of the crime for which he is . t1 be electrocuted.11 the people who cannot sleep nights were on that lie-1 . “sovereign people,” That is magnif» count suspected of being criminals, the guilty would have two chances of es- cape where the innocent would have one—Norwich Bulletin. . ‘ ' The sort of enterprise that has been using the United States flag as an ad- vertising dodger for Billings’ Bilious Bile Bili'ers, Wheedlem’s Bilious Pro- moters, Sti‘ggins’ Stomach Stimulator, Dolan’s Dynamite for Doldrums, etc.. will have to adopt, thank goodness, some other means of vaunting itself so far as the state of Connecticut is con— cerned.—Meriden Record. Harrison is a clever politician, a shrewd manipulator of men and a pow- erful factor in Illinois. We believe he will be able to control the delegation from that state in the national conven- tion, and it is safe to wager that M11. Bryan will not receive his support. It therefore looks now as if the Bryan men will have to fight two of the most powerful states in the convention—— New York and Illinois. —Sp11ingfield News. ________ We have a high - regard for the and .k-now that they fre‘d‘uently upset the plans of the politicians—at election time. When it comes to caucuses, primaries and conventions. however, the practical politician. almost invariably lands on top. We have the deepest respect for President McKinley but we believe that he is the Shrewdest politician that ever occupied the White House and he means to stay there for another ,four years. He and Senator Hanna area mighty strong “pair to draw to.”— Litchfleld Enquirer. It is to be hoped that the gales which. sweep from the Philippines. will soon cease to bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms. It has been a sav- age little war, and a totally needless one on the part of the Filipinos. We only wanted to do them good, and they wouldn’t let us. How foolish they have b€en. Why, if they had had sense by this time some of them might have been holding office under the best government on the face of the globe.— New Haven Courier. ———<o°o>——————- Millions Given Away. It is certainly gratifying to the pub- lic to know that one concern in the land who are not afraid to be generous to the needy and suffering. The p11o-‘ prietors of D11. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, have given away over ten million trial bottles of this great medicine; and have the satisfaction of knowing it has absolutely cured thousands of‘ hopeless cases. Asthma. Bronchitis, Hoarse- ness, and all diseases of the throat, Chest and Lungs are surely cured by it. Call on D1 uggist, John A. RiggS, 1]. Main street, and get 11 f1 ee trial bottle.
