Given up by the Waves.
While some fishermen were drawing a
901110 off Rocky Point in Long Island
Sound, Wednesday, they brought up the
body 0f a man about thirty-five years old
dressed in a business suit of gray cloth
and having several stab wounds about the
chest and head, one of which was directly
through the heart. The body had only
been in the water a few hours and is be
lievcd to be that 'of acme passenger on a
Sound steamer who has been murdered
and thrown overboard.
Last Wednesday, a cigar box found
floating near the shore at Wilson’s Point,
was dragged on land and upon opening it
the finder was horrified to see the remains
of a white male infant. The babe had
evidently been born alive and the umbili-
cal cord severed thus allowing the child
to die. The body had then been wrapped
in a newspaper, packed in the cigar box
and thrown into the water. The body
was taken up to South Norwalk and placed
in the care of Dr. Burke, who upon ex-
amination found that the child was born
alive. After making the examination the
doctor caused the remains to be buried.
The paper in which the body was wrapped
is a Philadelphia paper and it is presumed
that the body was thrown overboard from
some coal barge or passing vessel. The
affair is shrouded -in mystery and there
being no clue upon which to not there
will probably be no investigation.
Alniost Another Horror.
There was nearly a panic at the after-
noon performance of Barnum‘s circus at
Chicago, Thursday afternoon. The place .
was completely packed, over 15,000 per-
sons being present. The grand entry was
being made when one of the elephants
”attached to a chariot became frightened
and went bellowing around the ring,
dashing into the procession and smashing
one or two of the lighter chariots. To
add to the confusion one of'the lady
charioteers abandoned her horses and
they went dashing around the ring. The
wild beasts, frightened at the uproar, be-
gan bellowing and beating the bars of
their cages,and the rest of the elephants be-
came frightened and unmanageable. The
vast audience,composed largely of women.
and children, were greatly terrified and
rose up in their seats, and those near the
exit made a rush and jam, For a few
moments a general panic and a fearful
loss of life seemed inevitable, but the
continued playing of the band reassured
the frightened multitude somewhat, and
the employees succeeded in getting the
unruly animals out of the ring and rc'-.
storing quiet. No one was seriously in-
jured.

THEY} ALL GARRY IT.
An indispensable aid to tourists is a
good railway guide, and as the best is al-
way the cheapest, travelers who want to
avoid being “.just in time to get left" al-
ways carry a. copy of the A B 0 Path—
finder Railway Guide, this being the only
ofilcial one in New England. It contains
an elegant colored map of the, territory
covered by its tables, and many sectional
maps, making a valuable traveling com-
panion, free from the objectionable mass
of advertisements that form the greater
part of so many of the advertising schemes
called guides. The Pathfinder is sold by
all newsdealers, or will be sent to any ad-
dress a whole year, by sending $2.50, the
subscription price, to the New England
RaiIWay Publishing Company, Boston.
Single copies are 25 cents.
Six Locomotive Engineers Lose their Positions.
Six locomotive engineers have been dis-
charged from the service of the Consolida-
ted road. They are Harley J. Beecher,
who was of the 3:01 express from N. Y.,
Charles J. Roscoe of the Norwalk special,
Arthur B. Morse of an extra freight, Hi-
ram H. Fox of an extra passenger, W. J.
Barley of a construction train and B. F.
Fuller of an extra freight. Engineer
company for sixteen years. Vice-Presi-
dent Reed said that none of the men were
discharged because of offence; but sim-
ply because there was no work for them,
the company having accumulated too
many employees in this department.
The Propeller “City of Norwalk.”
Several reports have lately appeared in
print to the effect that the Iron Steamboat
Company had bought, or was negotiating
for the above propeller. These reports
have no foundation in fact and we are re-
questcd tojstate that the propeller is still in
the possession of and owned by the
Knickerbocker Steamboat Company. It
is running and will run as usual, in con-
nection with the steamboat Adelphi-the
coming season. Freighls of fruit, veges
tables and other perishable articles sent by
the steamer Adelphi, will. we are inform-
ed, positively arrive in time for tea. One
of the principal things which the owners
of the Adclphi promise ’is that the boat
will surely arrive at the South Norwalk
dock not later. than six p. m.
Golden Wedding.
Mr. and Mrs. Ira Belts of Wilton, who
were married June 10, 1833, celebrated
the 50th anniversary of their wedding on
Sunday by driving to Norwalk, and after
spending the day with their son, Captain
A. A. :Betts, returned to Wilton that
evening. Both, though far advanced in
years, are well and hearty, and give evi-
deuccs of a much longer stay upon this
mundane sphere. May their closing days
he as bright and happy as the journey up
the hillof life,
Delighted to Hear the Reason.
The New Canaan rlfessengar explains
the aesthetic tint to their last. week’s issue
by saying that the demand for that paper

printing of a hundred extra copies. It
was probably an extra that we received,
but at any rate we are glad to see that
the merits of the Messenger are being
recognized.

00. F's Visitor's.
On Thursday 00. K of Hartford. in re-
sponse to an invitation will visit Co. F of
this place. Co. F will meet their guests
at South Norwalk on their arrival 0f the
10:30 a. or. train. Three horse ears have
been chartered and will convey the visi-
tors up town to the armory of Co. F,
where the arms and equipments will be
stored. At 11:30 the “Carrie A. Ward”
will convey the two companies to Rotou,
where, about 1 p. m., landlord Ackcrt
will provide a “shore dinner." An hour
or two will then be occupied in the vari-
ous cnjoymcnts which Roton Point af-
fords, after which the boys will return to
the armory. At 5:30 the two companies
will hold a dress parade on Union Park,
followed byln short parade through the
principal streets of the borough. A grand
supper will be served at the Arlington
Hotel at 8 p. m., and the guests will leave
for home on the 10:50 train. Their visit
is a return of the one paid by Co. F last
summer at Hartford, and our boys are
making great preparations to give their
visitors a jolly good time. It was the
original intention of Co. K to come on the
22d inst , but owing to an arranged visit
to Hartford of a southern company on the
2lst, they were obliged to alter the date
of their trip.

. The “Adelphi.” ‘
The announcement made in last week’s
GAZETTE that on Saturday a; boat would
commence running on the Knickerbocker
line, was correct, and on that afternoon
the Adclphi put in an appearance, arriv-
ing at her dock shortly before six o’clock.
Soon after, a representative of the Ga.
znTTE arrived on the scene and made an
inspection of the boat to see what, if any,
improvements had been lately made. It
found that a general use of~paint had been
made upon the interior,'and the improve-
ment was marked. Descending into the
boiler room we found that an entirely new
.set of boilers had been provided and
everything was as safe and tight as could
be. The bull in many places had been
strengthened and our reporter’s conclu-
sion, after his inspection, was that nothing
had been left undone to make the Adelphi
a thoroughly safe and reliable boat. It
is well knownZthat she is the fastest boat
that has ever been put upon the route and
now that she has been put in thoroughly
safe condition, we have no doubt. that she
will be well patronized. The fare has
been reduced to 40 cents for the round
trip and, moreover, when people reach
the city it will not cost them $110 get
back.
P. S.——Siuce the above was indicted it
has been learned that it was the intention
of the company to place a “brand new”
boat. upon the line, but that it was not
completed it»: time for Saturday’s trip.
The new boat. is a very fast one and will
bear the name of “The Knickerbocker.”
It will he put upon the route very soon.

More Hard Luck.
Last Tuesday morning a little daughter,
fourteen months old, of John Dowd, a
driver for Jerry Donovan's delivery‘truck,
city, while playing in; her father‘s house
on Spring Hill, fell into a wash tub parti-
ally filled with water and narrowly escap-
cd drowning. The mother, who was
working in another room heard the splash
but paid no attention to it until, upon en-
tering the room where the child was, she
fins horrified to;find the little one nearly un
conscious in the tub. The neighbors were
hastily summoned and after restoratives
had been applied the little girl recovered.
On Thursday of the same week the same
child, while playing on the stoop, fell off
and striking upon the stone steps under-
neath, cut a terrible gash in her forehead
over the left eye. At last accounts the
little one was doing nicely and was wait-
ing for another chance to distinguish her-
self.
The Gamp Ground at Niantic.
The camp ground at Niantic has been
graded in such a way as to add about two
acres to the available ground, and this at
points where it was specially needed.
This lms been accompli shed by filling two
or three deep hollows that were so situa-
ted as to spoil a good part of the field for
the uses for which it was intended. The
contract for the buildings has not yet been
let, although a number of bids were open.
ed at the time first appointed and attempts
made since that time to secure bids that
should be within the appropriation and ac-
companied with a guarantee that the work
should be completed at a day set in Au-
gust.

A system of stealing lamp chimneys
from our streets lamps has been carried on

cherished against the Gentiles by the
Jews, and she asked: “What class of

Correspondence.
For the Gazelle.
School Tei'tt Books.
The day is not far distant we hop.
when the strong arm' of the law will once
more be extended towards our common
district schools. Thanks to the late ses—
sion of the legislature, it has removed
from the Town Boards of School Visitors
th. privilege as well as the duty of say-
ing what text books shall hereafter be
used in the schools. They will now be
uniform in all towns of the suite, ”and
cannot bechanged for stem of five years.
The State Board consisting of tthovern-
or, Lieut-Govcruor, Supt. of Schools and
one from each Congressional District, will
perform this duty, and also rcqurrc a
report of each school to be made directly
to them, in registers provided by them,
in order that they may learn the exact state
of each and every school. The fact was
proven to the Committee on Education
that the introduction of books into schools
was often done corruptly, as well as the
teachers who were given their positions
as a matter of favoritism, rather than with
the view to promote the advancementf of
education. In one case the sum of fifty
dollars was received in a town of incon-
siderable importance in this county, to
obtain a situation for a teacher. in another
instance a basket of champagpc, and other
“ways and means." . 3 .
The next move on the part of the state
will.be ‘to {have a State Board for the
examination of teachers, and place the
“getting of a school” beyond the power
bf ignorant, uneducated, and prejudiced
persons, who having no direct interest in
the matter of the proper education of the
young, pack ‘annual school meetings in
the interest of some fairorite. *

Another one of those disgusting quar-
rels amongst the denizens of Cobble Hill,
last week. Isn't it about time that these
nuisances were suppressed 1’ If the jar-

Last Wednesday morning, while Mr.
Edwin E. Sherwood in company with
Mr. Hurry Boutou was driving from Long
Ridge to Norwalk, Mr. Sherwood was
prostrated by the heat. He fell over in
the wagon unconscious, and Mr. Bouton,
consider-chi ystartlcd,drove rapidly to New
Canaan. Dr. Cummings was summoned
and after vigorous treatment Mr. Sher-
wood recovered sufhcicutly to be driven
home. The shock has greatly affected
him, but he is gradually recovering.
