Mr. Gomard said. “I had been, as many of my
friends in Lowell know.a great sufferer from
kidney and urlnary troubles for a long time.
My physician said it was the resultol diseased

my doctor’s treatmenthad been the best which
this city afforded. I got no better. I said. final—

is in your power to do. I know that; but I
must of: help from some other source or die.
Final y I was induced to try Dr. Kennedy’s
FAVORITE REMEDY, amedicine which had
been recommended very highly for kidney

Kennedy’sFAVORITE REMEDY Is an honest

anything would help me. but Ithis has given

WESTPORT.
[Crowded over from last week.]
In a field owned by Mr. Andrew Clarke,
west of the residence of Mr. James K.
P01k. Saugutuck, stands a chestnut tree—
a monarch of its kind, measuring within
6 inches of the ground 24 feet 8 inches in
circumference. Eight feet from the
ground the trunk diverges into two bran—-
ches either of which will make a saw mill
log larger than is usually met. The tree
is more than 60 feet high and is in full
bloom with promise of a great chestnut

none can tell, but evidently it had grown
to bea stalwart long before Washington
was born, 161 years ago, and was a silent.

which nearly half a century later he
engaged. To hew down a tree so mighty
ll axes oftlic county made into one axg,
and a dozen valiant woodme'n made into
one man to wield the axe would be re-
quired. To saw it down a special suw
would have to be manufactured, for no

down that tree. Lightning for ages has
kept shy of it, and for ages, like some

A steam fire engine for Westport, and
the subject has many times been hinted
at, would be a *good thing especially in
case ofafirc like that which destroyed
Kellogg’s factory. But if the tax payers
were asked to vote money for one, their
objections, doubtless, would be based on
the fact that a span of horses would have
to be kept in readiness to do the hauling
—and that, added to to the expense of a
man to care for the horses, supplemented
by the wear and tear on machine, and
interest on investment, there would be a

Gambling in Kentuck y.
How the Daring Blue Grass Gameslers Pile Up.
Then Money.
Probably there is no State in the Union
whcrc gambling of all kinds are carried on
as openly and as generally as it is in
Kentucky, and in no city has the mania
for gaming such it hold on the public
mind as it has in Louisville. Everybody
gamblcs here. The central part of the
city is one vast faro blink. For three
squares on Fifth avenue and for four
squares on Jefferson street nearly every
house is filled with keno rooms and taro
banks. The law is a dcad letter. for the
gamblers are greater than the law ; they
make the law. This city has now become
the horse center of the State, andherc are
collected all the big “sports" of Kentucky.
From February until October and Novem-
ber pools are sold in half a dozen places
for sums ranging from 25 cents to $4,000
and $5,000.
The vast amount of money that changes
hands in a single year also is appalling. I
was talking the other day with Fat Dick
Watts, one of the proprietors of the Turf
Exchange, and the figures he gave of the
firm’s dealings, including orders by tele-
graph.IFrench mutuals jand pool selling,
were for last year between $6,000,000 and
7,000,000. Compare this with the deal-
ings of any of the national banks or any
of the great mercantile houses of the
country and see how few surpass it. The
amount of betting going on at the races
each day is simply amazing. 0n Derby
day no less than $200,000 changed hands
on the ground alone, and all this in
cash. It wasn‘t a very good day for bet—
ting either.
The winnings that some of these gam-
blers make is enough to take onc’s breath
away. In one race alone Ill. Jack China,
the owner of Leonatus, won $35,000. He
is the famous friend of Phil Thompson,
and was his stanchest supporter in all his
troubles that arose from Thompson’s
unfortunate shooting affair. He is a
desperate better, and one night last sum-
mer, the story runs, that in albig poker
game with some Blue Grass race men he
won $15,000. Ex-Governor McCrcary
was at this time talking of running for
(Congress against Thompson. Chinn heard
of it and, slapping his hand down on the
table in front of him, swore roundly that
Thompson should have every cent of his
winnings to "beat McCreary. When Mc
Creury heard of the threat he failed to
make the race. China is a typical Ken-
tucky gambler, handsome, broad-shoulder-
ed, liberal to a fault, and knows how to
use a pistol. He once faced a mob of
thirty Republicans at Harrodsburgh, who
were threatening to kill any enemy of
Colonel “Bill” Bradley, the leader of their
party in the State, and especially hated by
Cbinn. He boldly denouned Bradley be-
fore the whole Ecrowd.. In a minute a
dozen pistols were out. IChinn instantly
drew his own, leveled it at the head of
the leader and swore that the first man
who attempted to shoot him would read
their leader’s death warrant. Some
friends backed him| up, all of them with
their weapons drawn, and a bloody battle
was only prevented by mutual friends
settling the dispute. He carries himself
jauntily, never picks a quarrel and never
shuns one that is forced on him. Abrave,
reckless, dashing fellow is Jack Chinn'and
a good specimen of the Blue Grass gam-
bler. He owns Lconatus and other good
horses, has a fine farm in the heart of the
Blue Grass, and is willing to bet $10,000
on three aces.
Another man here named Kecgin won
$40,000 on Lida Stanhopc and it scarcely
raised a ripple. In the same race a pool
was sold for $4,000. This is considered
moderate betting. The very children in
the streets buy pool tickets. On one side
of Third street you can see men in kid
gloves wagering their thousands on the
“Turf,” and across the way liootblucks
and uewsboys lict 25 cents on the
“Derby.” ' .
The Judge of our Circuit Court buys
pools and no one thinks wrong of it. He
is a big-hearted, honest gentleman, and if
public sentiment opposed his gambling he
would scorn to do it. The Chief of the
Fire Department sells pool tickets across
the counter, and the leading Councilman
of the city is an auctioneer during the
races. The Governor of the State buys
freely, and backs his choice like an old
gambler. The very girls buy pool tickets,
and divide their pocket-money with their
brothers and try to plump a winner. Men
make princely fortunes in a few years.
Milt. Young, an obscure grocery keeper
at Henderson, Ken., got hold of a good
horse and after two years bought himself
a magnificent stock farm near Lexington
-—tbc famous McGrathiann-mnd is w0ith
anywhere from $200,000 to $300,000, and
has a stable full of flyers. His horses
always] lost at the right time and won at
the right time. “You oughln’t to blame
the horse,” said the turfman to me. “they
didn’t have anything to do with it.”
The license that is given other kinds of
gambling makes Louisville the paradise
for the “calculators of chances” as Bret
Harte calls them. All the flhcs that are
imposed are freely remitted by the Gov-
ernor. Faro banks are almost as respon-
sible as national banks, and have quite as
much capital backing them. Winnings
and losings are made at a singlc'sitting
that would make onc’s head swim. Wed.
dell, a wellkncwn gambler in the South,
won $10,000 in two hours. Major Hughes
lost $3.000 on the turn of a card. A half
drunken party went into a Fifth street
bank a night ago and closed the blink up
for the night. winning everything in the
safe—Philadelphia Press

Why She Hated a Tunnel.

“I halo a tunnel l” the maiden said,
And closer to the drummer drew;
“They always make me feel afraid
Of some disaster; don’t they you ?”
And then the drummer shook his mane,
I “You’re safe enough with mo,” said he ;
“Whatever happens to the train, ,
You always can rely on me.”
And with ear-splitting whistle-’11 shriek,
The train plunged in tho liluclr abyss ;
The drummer sought her blooming cheek,
And frescocd it with manly kiss.
Emboldencd by her sweet alarm,
As on they tore through that eclipse,
11c laid her head upon his arm,
And frescocd a dado on licrlip.
“Ali, me i” the maiden sweetly smiled,
As she arranged her tumbled hat,
And once again the suiibcams filed
In at the window where they slit;
“1 thank you for your interest;
Excuse me, sir ; I get off hero 1”
And so she left. him drowned in sighs,

The Bad Boy.
“I licaryoiir Uncle Ezra is here on a
visit,” said the grocery man to the bad
boy. "I suppose you have: been having :1
high old time. There is nothing that
docs a boy more good than to have a'nicc
visit with 11 good uncle, and hear him tell
about old times when he and the boy’s
father were boys together.” “Well, I
don’t know about it,” said the boy, as he
took a stick of uiucaroninnd began to blow
paper wade through it at a woodsawyer
who was filing a saw outside the door.

mashed on pa. and there was no cure for
her except to have pa prescribed for her

Ezra told me all about it. Ma hain’t got
any patience with girls now days that
have minds of their own about fellows,
and she thinks their parents ought tohave
all the say. Well, maybe she thinks she
knows all about it. But when people get
in love it is the same now as it was when
pa and ma were trying to keep out of the
reach of my grandfather's shot gun. But
pa, me, and Uncle Ezra are good friends
and they talk over old times and have a
big laugh. I guess Uncle Ezra was too
much for pain joking when they were
boys. ’cause pa told me that all rules
against joking were suspended whilc
Uncle Ezra was here and for me to play
anything on him I could. I told pa I was
trying to_lead a different life, but he said
what I wanted to do was to make Uncle
Ezra think of old times, and the only way
was tokeep him on the ragged edge. I
thought if there was anything I could do
to make it pleasant for my uncle, it was
my duty to do it, so I fixed the slots on
the spare bed so they would fall down at
2 a. m. the first night, then I retired. 1 At
2 o’clock I heard the awfulest noise in the
spare room and a bowling and screaming,
and I went down and met Uncle Ezra
in the hall. and he asked me what was the
matter in there, and I asked him if he
didn’t slocp.ln the spare room, and he
said no, that pa and me was in there and
he slept in their mom. Then we went in
the spare room, and you’d it died to see
pa. Ma had jumped out when the slats
first fell and was putting herhair up in
curl papers when we got in, but pa was
all tangled up in the springs and things.
His head had gone down first, and the
mattress an quilts rolled over him, and be
was almost smothered, and we had to
take the bedstead down to get him out,
the way you have to unharncss a horse
when he runs away and falls down, before
you can get him up. Pa was mad, but
Uncle Ezra laughed at him, and told him
he was only foundered, and all he wanted
was a bran mash and some horse linsment
and he would come out all right. Uncle
Ezra went out in the hall to get a pail of
water to throw on pii, ’cnusc he said pa
was afircgwhcn pa asked me why in
blazes I didn’t fix the other bed slats, and
I told him I didn’t know as they were
going to change beds, and pa said don‘t

me. He is the most changeable man I
ever saw.”
Post Office Burglary.
Last Monday evening the post ofllcc at
Bristol was broken into and $900 worth
of stamps and $250 in money taken. The
thieves entered through a rear window
and drilled a three-quarter inch hole in
the safe door, near the combination lock.
The post office is situated on Main street
in a brick building known as Nott‘s block.
Underneath is a bakery where men were
at work all night. yet the burglars work-
ed so noiselessly that they were not
heard. .
’I‘uttle Family Reunion.
A reunion of the deccndants of William
Tuttle of New Haven will take place at
High Rock grove, August 15. blit if
stormy on that day, on the 17th. William
Tultlc came to this country in 1639, and
in June he signed the colony constitu-
tion. No doubt the gathering will be a
large one, for it will include all branches
of the Tuttlc family. In order to perfect
arrangements, 1‘ meeting will be held at
the law office of Dwight Tullle, Chapel
street, New Haven, July 2, at 10 a. m.
for that purpose- All persons interested
in the matter are invited to be present.
The Increase ofPatents.
WASHINGTON, J line 26.—-A comparative
statement of patents, etc. issued during
the first half of the calender years 1882/
and 1883 shows an increase in patents of
2]. per cent.; in designs of 30 per cent,
in labels 24.7 per cent. in trademarks a’
decrease of 12 per cent, and in reissues a
decrease of 45 per cent.
BOATS, BICYCLES AND HAY FEVER.
Nature has resolved that all the poo 1e shall
not enjoy themselves at once. With t 0 open-
ing of the season of outdoor sports comes
the time of trouble for the poor victims of
Hay Fever. For them flowers have no odor,
and the summer little or no beauty. To shut},
sneezo and wipe their weeping eyes for flu-co
or four successive months :--this is their piti—
ablo portion. Whether this form of catnrrh
is called hay-lover, hay—cold, rose-cold or
rose-fever, makes no difference ; they suffer
just the same. There is no help in sea-voy-
ages, there is no help in high {mountain air.
These only lighten tho pocket and leave the
disease unabated. But there is a ositivo
cure in Ely’s Cream Balm. We con (1 cram

cued. Try it and join them. Il'you continue
to suffer it is because you neglect a remedy as

Look out for the Engine.
I am a locomotive engineer, and have been
for twenty years, and am now running on the
Maine Central Railroad. Life on an engincas
all engineers know, is very trying to health
and strength. The continual jar ol'thccngiuc
and strain on our long trips all tend to weal:-
cn the kidneys and urinary organs. in addi-
tion to this. ten years ago, i met with a. se-
vcrc accident. and I was taken from under
my engine with sgvcre internal injuriesnvhich
gave me great pain. I was laid up for six;
months. and suffered more than I can dcscribc’
and more than I wish to suffer again. I re-
sumcd work, but my kidneys began to’disturh
n. e. and my nervous system seemed to be out
or order. I could not sleep," as my water do-
Illilliflcd such constant attention thathns
kept awake during a great part of the night;
to urinate caused severe pains. I employed
the best medical skill in Portland and else-
where but continued to grow worse.
I was persuaded to try Hunt’s Remedy as
I l‘ouudthat many ofmy friends in Portland
had used it with great success, yet I had no
faith that it would reach my case. However,
I sent fora halfdozen bottles at one of the
drug stores, in Portland, and from the use of
the first bottle found a great relief. My water
was much better and the pain in the back and
limbs greatly relieved. I continued its use
until I had used ten bottles in all, and it has
boon to me a wonderful blessing, and I have
deemed it a duty and privilege to recommend
it to those troubled in a similar manner; and
you may publish this for the benefit of our
railroad men and the public in general, as it
has completely cured me.

Senator Jones’ Start in Cali-
fornia.
Senator Jones of Nevada, had gone to
California with thousands of others, when
the wonderful discovery of gold in that
far-off land thrilled every hamlet and vil-
lage. Among those who went to seek
their fortunes was a man named Hayward,
from Vermont. Hayward had a claim on
the mountainside, that had as yet shown
no particular promise; still he stuck to it.
One hot summer (lay, when the Red Hills
were quivering with heat, Hayward came
to see Jones. Said he :
“Jones, I am very near to a wonderful
vein. I know it; I feel it. but I am flat
broke. I want $2,000; with that I will
make both our fortunes?
“Now, old fellow,” said Jones, “I have
known just 1,000 men who were in exact-
ly your fix. They only needed $1,000,
and sometimes $100, to make their enter-
nal all.’ Finally Jones said : “I will give
you this money. I have 3,000 buried
under the fireplace, and when the fire goes
out I will get it out for youfbut don’t ask
me for any more.”
Hayward got the money, and said::
“When I strike it I will give you a qur“
for interest.”
One afternoon about a month after this
happened, Jones was sitting in his cabin
when Hayward suddenly burst in as white
as a sheet.
struck it!"
They went together to look at it, and
sure enough Hayward had struck an im
incusc bonanza or “pocket," of almost
pure gold. Jones. with his experience,
saw it was the richest mine in C; 1iforniii.
Hayward sold it to Wells, Fargo, and
some others for $5,000,000. and the day
the sale was made he gave Joncs $1,250,-
000. J ones afterwards m‘ ricd IIayward’s

Tweed’s Famous Club House.
The historical club house of the Ameri
our _club at Indian harbor,just a mile from
Greenwich, Conn., is undergoing another
transformation.
sons and gardeners have been at Work all
the spring, and the whole place is pretty
well transformed. The principal altera-
tion is an annex almost as big as the old
club house itself. But the surroundings
are not altered.
This club IlllllSL‘, built in 1869, and
which replaced the old tumble-down hm—
rack which formed the quarters of the
club before then, was inaugurated in 1870.
It cost $170,000 to build, and the mem-
bers spent. another $100,000 in fitting up
their individual quarters. The club only
enjoyed two sllniniersherc. Before the
warm weather of 1872 had come around
it had already grown so hot. for the Ring
ili New York that its members sought
other clinics and more distant ones. The
city treasury no longer contributed enough
to keep this monument of reckless extrav-
agance on Indian' Harbor going. In fact,
by 1872 most of them had even sold their
diamond-faced badges with the tiger’s
head in relieve. Two or three attempts
were made to revive the club, but they
were unsuccessful. The. place was too
intimately identified with the ring from
which it grew. About 1873 it passed out
of the club’s possession on executions for
debt. It is a curious commentary that it
fell finally into the hands of Ingersoll, the
celebrated chairmsker, and I believcjs
2 his now. But for some years past it has
been used as a hotel, being best known
during the time as the Morton house.
Whatever disgrace and disaster may
have attended the place no one can deny
the excellent taste and judgment ’which
presided, and its selection as unite for
pleasure. It has every natural advantage
and is even to-day one of the most strik-
ing features of a trip up the Sound.
Tweed used to gaze with satisfaction on
the splendid pile and say: “Here I shall
end my days.” He ended them instead
in Ludlow street jail after adventures so
romantic that they might be more wonder-
ful as a star page of the Thousand and
One Nights—New York Journal.

Oyster Interests. '
A rcmonstrance bearing thirty three
signatures was received by the shell fish-
eries commission last Monday against the
application of Jim H. Lowndes and Ed.
Ward H. White for designations of oyster
grounds in the vicinity of Fish Island.
The objection is based on the claim that
the tracts applied for are part of the No-
roton Point natural clam and oyster bed.
The application of Lowndes and White
for about 200 acres south of Fairficld
beach, was rejected on the ground that it
encroaehed on a natural bed. A number
'of land owners, of whom W. L. Stevens
of Five Mile River, is the largest, applied.
for an abatement on their tax lists. As a
result-of the hearing the commission de-
cided not to grant abatements in any cases,
being evidently of the opinion that the
property as at present listed was at rather
too low than too high a rate.

Malaria the Cause.
Every Sickness has its Fever. The
head, the lungs, the stomach, the bowels, the
liIver, the spleen, and the kidneys each will at
times have their little Fever. Easily sub-
dued if taken in time, but if delayed the fever
spreads like fire in a house, until the whole
body is involved, and the person is sick in bed.
The Magic Cure is especially a. Fever
Medicine—better and cheaper than quinine.
It is the hope of the sick-bed. The bow of
promise to the invalid.
Every case of Scarlet Fever, Diphthe-
fla, Pneumonia, 'can be cured, if this
remedy is taken actively as directed.
Malaria. or Miasm in the air is for the
most. part the cause of all Fevers, and the
Magic Cure is a sure antidote for it in every
form it may assume.
Every Chill has its Fever, but not every
fever has its Chill. We cure the Fever or
the Chill at the same time. ‘
Ask your druggist for the illogic Cure.
