A FAT MEN’S WAR IMMINENT.

indications of a Broil at Dorlon's on Thursday—
Aggressive Feelings Between Bradley and
Perkins.

Fat zmen always broil more or has in
summer, but there promises to be a broil
of considerable magnitude among the
“heavy weights" at Dorlon'sl Point on
Thursday of this week, no matter what
may be the condition of tlle temperature.
There's been heaps of trouble on the old
man’s mind, since Billy Perkins went off .
with the cane. The “old man” in this
case is Charlie Bradley of New Haven.
There has been strife ever since in the
camp of the fat men. Judging from a
New Haven letter in Sunday’s New York
Times it looks as if there would be not
only a war on clams on Thursday, but an
internecine warfare among the “fatties”
as well. The aforesaid Bradley, thought,
so it is claimed, that with Perkins, who
weighs 125 more pounds than he does, as
president he would be the power behind
the throne. Perkins, however, concluded
to be something more than a dejurc presi-
dent, and hgcfieuded Bradley by calling
the regular meeting of the association in
1882 at Roton Point instead of Gregory’s
or Dorlon’s Point where it had always
been held. The incentive which caused
this change of base was an ofier of 10
per cent. on tickets sold, etc. President
Perkins was too much of a Yankee to
resist the offer. Bradley and his friends
were conspicuous-by their absence, and
there being no quorum present, the elec-
tion of officers was deferred. Last year
no meeting at all was held, but Perkins
continued to keep possession of the big
cane and the mammoth chair remained at
Roton. Perkins says that shortly after
the cane came into his possession Bradley
wanted to borrow it. “He said that he
had spent $35 in putting his gold plate
on it, and he wanted to get the money
back. He proposed to remove the plate
and substitute a cheap counterfeit in
brass. He said that it would look just as
well, but I didn’t propose to encourage
deceit in any association, of which I was
president. Pretty nearly everybody in
the club is clamoring for that cane—
Charley Bradley louder than anybody.
Now, that cane is worth $160 in cash,
and it has cost me about $3,000 in the
way of dinners and wine and lunches—
and fat men's lunches come high,let me
tcll-ydu—to keep possession of it; and I
didn't propose to turn it over to any Tom,
Dick, or Harry who might ask for it.
Last Thursday I boxed that cane up and
sent it to Patrick Murphy, the 295 pound
Treasurer of the association, who lives at
Westport. As to the President’s chair,
that’s at Roton, and it's going to stay
there; at least I‘m not going to take it
away. Some impertinentNew York man

i wrote to me not long ago directing me to
send the chair to Dorlon’s. This I peremp-
torily refused to do. The chair cost $50
and Iconsidcr myself responsible for it
until a duly elected President is chos-
en.”

Mr. Bradley smiled blaudly when he
was told what Mr. Perkins had said about
him. “That for Perkins!” said he,
snapping his fingers. "What do I care
for him ? He talks nonsense. Why that
cane nin’t worth $20 outside of my gold
plate.- I took the cone to a jewelry store
when I was elected President and told the
man to put an 18 carat gold plate on it.
He told me that the plates already on
there were cheap imitations. Every sin-
gle President of the association had been
deceiving the members. I, wouldn't do
anything like that, you know, so I had a
gold plate put on, and I’m going to have
it off if I have to thump Perkins. I’m no
Sullivan, but I won’t allow any 400 pound
chump to talk about me. I used to be a
boxer, and I know a thing or two yet.”

President Perkins and his friends an-
nounce their intention of being on hand
at the coming bake, and they declare that
nothing short of physical force will pre-
vent them from taking part in the meet-
ing. The other faction declare that force
shall be used to bring about that end, if
necessary, and the peaceful waters of
Dorlon Point are in imminent danger of
carrying to the sea on Thursday the blood
and bodies of the dead and dying Titans,
who have met their fate in defense of
what they ,considereda sacred principle.

The Times’ letter concludes as follows:
“B. W. Waples, the Acting Secretary,
who weighs 305 pounds, will be impeach-
ed for malfeasance. But Mr. Waples has
suddenly departed for Europe. The con-
gregation of the Rev. John R. Williams
presented him with $500 recently: He
determined to spend it in a trip through
the old country. Mr. Waples was afraid
the task might be more than Mr. Williams
—a small 160 pounder—could perform,
so he has gone along to help him. This
insures the complete success of the at-
tempt to spend the money.”

Rev. Mr. Williams is well known as a
' most estimable christian gentleman. and
worthy clergyman. He is in no way
connected with the jovial, rollicking and
roystering fat men, or their clam bakes,
or broils. Associating his pure name with
one so disreputable, (as is done in the
above paragraph) is an unwarranted of.
fence and an insult to the the worthy rec-
tor and his friends.

 

 

 

 

 

Death from the Flames.

Simon Squires, about 47 years of age,
was found dead in a yard adjoining the
Southport bank Saturday morning. He
lived in a room near the bank. The body
was burned somewhat, and a night shirt
had been burned away to the armpits.
The room showed that the deceased had
gone to bed with the lamp lit and this had
been upset. The fire had burned the room
and furniture, and probably deceased had
rushed out of doors with his clothing on
fire. Dr. Garlick, medical examiner, said
that death resulted from the shock and
tllc illness from which the deceased was

suffering.)
. Goes to Florida.

Clarence Nash, solong and so favorably
known as a member of the house furnish-
ing firm of F. H. Nash & Bros.,gocs ‘to
Florida in a few days to establish the
same line of business and to make his
permanent home in that state because of
his continued ill health here. We can-
not too strongly express the regret which
every one who knows this estilnabrc man
feels over his forced departure from the
home of his nativity, nor overstate the ear-
nest hope everywhere felt that his change

of residence may result in a restoration of ‘

his impaiW‘
That Explains It!

We have often wondered why our little
horse railroad was ranked among the non-
dividcnd-paying investments, but, as We
are informed by a gentleman who, l‘CCf'nl-
ly, ill return for half a dollar handed the
driver for change, received an envelope
marked fifty cents but containing one
dollar, their extreme liberality to their
patrons (as displayed in this case) makes
too great a draft upon their earnings.

Police Notes.

Officer Bitch arrested James McNamcc
on Wall street Saturday evening for drunk-
enness and indecent exposure. He spent
Sunday in the lockup and when brought
before Judge Selleck yesterday morning
was fined $3 and costs which he paid.

Officers Bitch and Lockwood arrested

' Tom and John Silk on Sunday for indulg- ‘

ing in a free, fight on SpringHill. The two
men assaulted Mrs. T. Silk and Mr. Will-
iamMonahan who undertook to protect her
was roughly used. They were arraigned
for trial before Justice Selleck yesterday
and each were fined. $4 and costs.

John Homing, late of the Rock House,
was elevated before Justice Selleck yes-
terday on a charge of drunkenness. IIe
plead guilty‘aud was fined $1 and costs.
At the request of the young man’s father,
Officers Bitch and Lockwood went up to
Cannon’s Station early Saturday morning
and arrested John Cannon, who has recent-
ly tried to figure as a martyr before the
public. The young man made a vigorous
resistance and it was only after a despeu
ate struggle that; the officers succeeded in
handcufiing him. When searched, a long
dirk knife and a loaded revolver were
found on his person. Later in the day he
was taken to Middletown and lodged in
the insane retreat at that place.

 

A New Directory.

Mr. W. Andrew Boyd the well known'
directory man is engaged in canvassing
this town for names, etc., to constitute a

new directory. The Boydsz have had
years of experience in this business,
having published directories of Washing-
ton, D. C., Baltimore, Md., Philadel-
phia, and about thirty more of the
principal {cities of the United States.

This firm published the last directory of
this place some two years since, which
proved very popular, but time making
many changes they have concluded to
issue a second edition which will include
a general directory of Norwalk and a
business and farmers’ directory of Fair

field county. Mr. Boyd has already can-
vassed South Norwalk where he met with
great success, and. as the reputation of
his firm is so well known, we trust our
merchants at this end of the town will
tender their support and secure for the
place what has been so long needed, viz.,
a first class and thorough directory cm-
bracing all that such an enterprise should.

 

Schools for Young Ladies.

The advertisement for the Fall Term
of Miss Baird's school for young ladies
and misses, appears in today's GAZETTE.
This educational institute haswon a very
remarkable degree of success for the short
time it has been established. But it
is all deserved as every effort is made
to promote the comfort and best de
velbpmeut of both the bodies and minds
of its pupils. Miss Baird has had her
house enlarged and improved in a manner
to specially adapt it for the purposes of
her school, and with her well known ener-
gy, enterprise and experience, the patrons
of this school may confidently rely upon
still more gratifying results.

Miss Stevens’ Home Lawn school com-
mences its Fall Session (as will be seen by
her advertisement in anothcr'part of to-
day’s GAZETTE) next month. This board~
ing and day school for misses, has long
since established itself in the confidence
and esteem of the public and with the
many other of Norwalk’s private schools,
is an institution whlch ' we may all justly
feel proud.

 

GAINING A PLACE BY MERIT.

A Young Lady Successful Under the Civil Ser-
vice Rules.

The following, from the New York
Times of Sunday, refers to a young lady
of this place, the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. James E. Hoyt. Miss Hoyt, while
in Washington has restded with General
Wm. T. Clark. also of this place.

Wasnmc'rox, Aug. 25.-—Miss Minnie F.
Ho t, of Connecticut, enjoys the distinction
of clog the first person appointed to a clerk-
ship in the Treasury Department under the
operation of the new civil service rules. Some
time a o a vacancy among the nine-hundred-
dollar ndy clerks in the National Bank lic-
deption Agency was made by the promotion
of one lady from a thousand-dollar place to
one of $1,200, and another from the nine-hun-
dred-dollar clerks to fill her place. Under the
rules, the Civil Service Commission were
asked to certify four “cligiblcs” for the va-
cancy, and the names were duly returned.
The tour sent were the highest on the list,
and Miss Hoyt’s led all the rest“ Her stand-
ing at the recent examination was 88.96. The
next name was that of an Indiana lady, whose
marking was 85.75. Then came a lady from
Virginia, whose average was 74.75, and the
fourth was a. lady from Louisiana, who was
marked 73.75. Acting Secretary French in-
dorscd the paper, “The first named person
may be appointed.” Miss Hoyt is about 24
years old and is a graduate of Vassar. On
Oct. 1, 1880, she was appointed a clerk in the
Census Office at $600aycar. Oucinonth later
her salary was raised to $720. In March, 1881,
she was promoted to 8840, in May to 81,000,
and in Oct., 1882, to $1,200. During a. part of
the time she had charge of a. section. She is
very quick, correct, and capable ill every way
alld is spoken of in the highest terms by Col.
Seaton, Superintendent of the Census, and
cx—Commissionc r Ilaum, whose neighbor sho
has been for some time.

A Pleasant Wedding.

Last Wednesday, at the home of her
parents in New Canaan, Miss Eleanor,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Francis Brown,
was wedded to Mr. John Rossitcr of Guil-
fcrd, ,Conn. A large number of friends
and relatives were present and, after the
Rev. Mr. Grcenleaf had performed the
impressive ceremony, wished the happy
couple a full share of life’s best blessings.
A bountiful collation was served after
which the groom and bride departed for
their new honlcin Windsor. The Messen—
ger in speaking of the event truly say's:
“Both Mr. and Mrs. Rossitcr bear with
them into their new and untried life the
affectionate regard and the good wishes of
hosts of friends in New Canaan and vi-
cinity.” ‘

 

 

Attempted Salem.—

Mr, Chas llcmson living in East Norwalk,
attempttd suicide by swallowingn dose
of lulldanum. Mr. Romson had bccn rc-
ccnlly married and rumor says his short
marital experience had not been a happy
one. Bt’: that as it may, he hnzl purchased
the lnudanum and after a remark to his
mother drank the poison in her presence.
Dr. Lockwood was hastily summoned and
by vigorous treatment sucCecdcd in saving
the young man’slifc, and he has almost
recovered from the consequences of his
rash act. ,

The lleturn of tlle Ncptllncs.

After a fine and thoroughly enjoyed
trip of just two weeks, the Neptunes ar-
rived safely homc at half-past two Wedncs»
day afternoon. All were well and not an
accident or. incident had occurred to mar
their delightful vacation. “Their ranks
were full, their mates all there,” and all
united in pronouncing the cruise of ’83
the most enjoyable and pleasant of all
their llu‘mcrous trips. They arrived off
the entrance to the harbor Tuesday night
but the wind failed them and they were
obliged to lie all night in sight of home
yet unable to reach it. Contrary l0 their
usual luck the members report having
made no large catches of blue fish and for
a wonder but little “blufling” was in
dulged in. Aquiet and peaceful vacation

‘was thus spentand with sunburn tllands and

faces the “Naps” have returned to battle
with their various businesses until the
summer of ’84 sees them en route for the
Vineyard again.

match was shot at glass balls by teams of
9 men, 10 balls to a man. The result was
a defeat for the Bridgeport clubgthcy
