'l'hs Rev. Mr. Williams’ Fund.

We are informed that it is the purpose
of Mr. Lyon and Mr. Nash to prepare
and have published a list of all the sub-
scribers with the amounts contributed to
the Rirv. Mr. Williams European fund.
We are glad of this, for the free gossip in
circulation is as unjust to the above
named committee memos it must be dis-
agreeable to the immediate friends of the
absent r'ector. This contemplated publi-
cation on their part is the quickest, surest
and most sensible way to put an effectual
end to what are withom doubt, grossly

exaggerated rumors. - p
P. S.-The above was indicted on the

statement made to us by a mutual West~
port friend, that Messrs. Lyon and Nash
had concluded to make public their sub-
scription list. We regret the change in
the programme indicated in the fol.
lowing [communication No harm cer-
tainly can come of a full, public exposi-
tion of that subscription paper, and it is a
surprise to us that the writers of the fol.
lowing,cannot,see it to be their easiest and
surest vindication from what we believe
to be a grossly unjust imputation.

Ennons GAZETTE:

The comments in Gazs'r'rit of August
28th, and Sum of September 1st which
follow “A Card” explaining our position
as members of a voluntary committee of
three to solicit subscri tions to a compli-
mentary fund to send tev. John R. Wil-
liams, rector_of Christ church, to Europe,
seem to reflect, though probably not so
intended, upon our honesty and integrity,
conveying the idea that we have collected
ranch, paid the rector little, and pocketed
the balance, and that the only way to set
ourselves right before a doubting public
is, to print the subscription list. To do
this, we feel, would be violating the con-
fidence of contributors and place_ the
beneficiary, now in a distant land, in a
delicate position as to his numerous
friends, simply to satisfy a morbid curr-
osity on the part ofthose who have no
interest in the matter whatever beyond
that of certain, sensational newspaper
stories. We have therefore placedcoprcs
of the original list of all the contributors
with the amounts of their donations in
the ofiice of Charles Rockwell, Esq.,
General Freight Agent Consolidated
road, depot. New Haven, and with Pat-
rick Murphy, Esq., station agent at Sang-
atuck. and we invite contributors to call
on either, or address them by letter as to
whether their names are on the list, the
amount opposite their names and the total
subscribed.

Messrs. Rockwell and Murphy who are
purely disinterested have consented to
act in this matter, and willsupply sub-
scribers with any information they may
require, or the public should know,

Respectfully etc,

Space at the County Fair.

The managers of the county fair have
addressed to the business public generally
the following communication: “Applica-
tions for space in the exhibition hall of the
Fairfield County Agricultural society are
now in order. We are receiving applies.
tions daily. How much room will yen
require for your display P The promise of
a larger number of exhibits and increased
interest this year is shown in all direc-
tions. The directors are working to make
the meetings of September 11, 12, 13 and
14 sperfect success and will furnish spec-
ial attractions each day, extra, or in addi.

tion to the regular trotting, cattle, poultrys. _

mechanical, manufacturing and industrial
exhibits. We believe that a display at
the fair of goods made by you will yield
a large return in advertising and orders
that can be secured. Applications for
space can be made to James Finney, Nor-
walk, Ct., or may be addressed to the sec'
retary." It is to be hoped that this will
beproductive of renewed interest and a
much improved exhibition, adds the
Bridgeport Standard.

 

Sad Drowning.

Sunday afternoon off Fox Island, Port-
chestehh bar, a 15 feet sail boat having
on board six persons was capsized and
two of the number were drowned, Homer
Gilbert of New York, a member of the
Stock Exchange, and James Lockwood,
agent of the Eastern News company, who
has acted so long on the trains of the
Consolidated road in the capacity of
newsman. He will be remembered by
patrons of the road for his gentlemanly
appearance and affability. He was
slightly lame. Lockwood, who was 22
years old, was recently married, and was
highly esteemed in Mamaroneck. At this
time (Monday 8 o’clock) the two bodies
had not been recovered, though strenous
efforts looking to tl at end had been insti-
tuted [and continued during last night.
Owing to the depth of water and currents
at the spot where the casualty took place
there are fears as to early success in the

matter.

Prospects of the Oyster Drop.

The outlook for the oystcrmen is very
encouraging. Last fall nativeoysters wcrc
unusually poor; this fall they promise to
he fatter and better than usual. This con.
dition also applies to Virginia plants,which
have growu rapidly during the summer.
Advices from Chesapeake bay are to the
effect that stock is better than usual, which
is largely due to the cool season. The new
dredge used extensively in southern waters
of late years has also improved the quality
of stock, by thinning out the beds. South-
ern oyster catchers say Chesapeake willbe
higher in price than formerly. Over
dredging is having its effects upon Virginia
and Maryland oyster beds, and were it not
for the successful propagation in Long
Island sound waters, the prospect would
not be as favorable for the winter supplies.
Should, there be a hard winter in the
Chesapeake—the supply of stock for north-
ern shipment will be limited. There is rea-
son to believe that strong- efforts will be
made in the legislatures of Maryland and
Virginia at the coming sessions looking to
the protection ,of oysters in the waters
within their jurisdiction.

Ohr information as to the above is that
they are not “quite evidently written by
one and the same person.” TheNew York
Times article was written by their regular
New Haven correspondent. who is ,also
said to be of the editorial staff of the
New Haven New. The Regrhter’s cor
respondent was at Westport last week, in-
terviewing contributors to the Williams

The Romance of a Shirt.

A good story comes floating down the

Danbury & Norwalk Railroad of an in—

cident it appears that happened during

the recent camp meeting at Brookside

Park. It seems that a young lady from

this place desired to attend. but from

some unexplained reason was prevented

from making the necessary toilet until a

few minutes before train time. Then all

was confusion and the young lady was

unable to bestow the usual time upon such

an important proceeding. The ordeal

was quickly passed through however, and -
she made a rush for the door. Just then,

her mother discovered an important ad-

junct to her daughter’s appearance was

missing, and calling her back, hastily

rolled up a man's shirt upon’ which she

was working (and which belonged to

Hutchinson, Colefi Co.’s factory) and

inserted it under her daughter’s dress

to serve as a bustle. This last matter

feing properly attended to, the young

sdy rushed for the train and being for-

tunate enough to be in time, considered

her troubles over, as she was rapidly

borne to the meeting grounds. But,

alas! for the frailty of human inventions I

Scarce an hour had been passed at Brook-

side rambling through the grounds with

a male escort, ere an ominous looseness
in the back part of .her dress convinced

her that all was not right. Her convic-
tions proved correct and soon that hor-
riblebustle glided down to Mother Earth
where the blushing young lady' was
obliged to leave it in order that it might

escape the eyes of her escort.

“There in the twilight all beautiful it lay,"

until it caught the watchful eyes of an

elder who, after an examination of the
garment, turned it over to the leader of
of the meeting for that evening. The
latter before commencing his exhortation,

stated that a gentleman’s garment had
been found on the grounds, and that the
owner thereofcould have the same by
applying to him, and holdingup the shirt,

the young lady in question was horrified
to recognize her recresnt bustle. What
was to be done? The loss of _ that shirt’
might prove serious and the proprietors
might refuse to accept any explanation.

She saw herself and mother branded as
thieves and condemned to occupy a prison
cell. These thoughts passed swiftly
through the mind of the terrified girl.
until in the exigeney of the moment she
made a heroic resolve. That shirt might
be regained at any cost and so, taking her
escort to one side, with many a sob and
flaming face, she told him the circum-
stances. _Politely refraining from even a
smile the aforesaid escort edged his way
through the crowd, claimed and recovered
the troublesome garment and bore it in
triumph to his weeping companion.
Words could not express her gratitude,
but if ere long a quiet wedding takes
place ‘in town it will all come about
through the agency of “A Romance of a

Shirt.” 6

Acres of Forests in Flames and Farmers Greatly
Alarmed.

Fanumcnanu, L. 1., Sept. 1,—The fire
which was started by a spark from a lo-
comotivelaat Wednesday now covers a
space five miles in length by two miles in
width in the woods northeast of this
village. The loss of crops and other
products in the district is enormous, but
most of the farm houses have escaped
damage. ' '

In Suffolk county fires are burning in
the neighborhood of Yaphank, (Hunting-
don, West Hills, and Woodbury.

As one of the most severe. droughts
experienced in ten years visited this dis
trict this summer, every effort to check
the flames have failed and '~ property
owners in the track of the fire are
greatly alarmed for the safety of their
homes. More than 700 acres of valuable
timber, 200 acres of growing corn, miles
of fencing and a number of buildings hiive
been destrOyed. The total loss so far is
estimated at $50,000. .At Woodbury and
other points men, women, and children
are hard at work digging trenches to
check the progress of the fire. The heat

can be felt facilities-sway."

Port Chester en route this way on Mon-
day, Nelson K. Smith being ohc of the

A Terrible Death Roll.

The Tribune gives seventy-one thousand
as the lowest approximate number of hu-
man lives that have been sacrificed the pres
ent year by accidents on land and sea, and
by earthquakes, fire and pestilence. Rev.

tality the theme of his brief Sunday-morn-

Ward tugging away at the great steamer
and futilely trying to pull her off. '

Smgular Experience of a Connecticut Lady.| |
A _very remarkable case of fasting,
which occurred in this city during the
past spring, has lately come to light. In
this case, however, the abstaining from
food was not a voluntary action, but the
result of a singular disease. The name of
the person who was compelled to undergo
this severe period of famine, is Mrs.
Reilly, a resident of the first ward. This
lady came to the city some time ago, and
shortly after her arrival was attacked with
a severe Iillness from which she is conva-
lescing and, it is said, during fifteen weeks
of such illness, could not eat food, or stim-
ulant of any kind. Mrs. Reilly, who is a
pleasant, lady-like person, in speaking
about the matter last evening, said this
was the third attack of enforced famine
from which she had_suffercd. The first
attack she experienced was just at the time
Dr. Tanner was setting the medical frater-
nity by the cars with his forty day fasting
feat. The lady was then living in South
Norwalk, Conn, and, despite the arduous
efforts of the best medical men of the
place, was unable to partake of any sus-
tenance, either solid or fluid, for over
three months. The second prostratron
was some two years later, but did not con-
tinue quite so long a period. The singli-
lar facts about these attacks are, that ul-
though unable to eat anything, the lady
was not confined to bed for more than
three weeks during either of thenr, but
Was able to sit up the greater portion of
the time. In quest of relief, she stated
that the best medical talent of New York
and Brooklyn had been sought by her, but
her efforts have beenot‘ no avail, all the
physicians visited being unable to combat
the mysterious cause of her ailment.
Thoroughly disheartened by her ill suc-
case, she came to Milwaukee where her
mother resides, and shortly after her arri-
val Iost her husband, who was seized with
an apoplectic fit on the journey, and died
soon after reaching here. This crushing
blow brought on another attack of the
dread disease, it seems,
mentioned above. The lady ascribes hcr

inability to eat or retain anything on her

stomach to the presence of a round, hard

substance, directly below the heart, and

which, she says, does not seem to grow

any larger. but at times tlrrohs as palpably

as the heartitself. The symptoms preced-

ing each of these attacks, the Indy rc'

marked, we‘re singularly similar,aud man-

ifested themselves in the rush of blood to

the face, and constantly recurring flashes

of heat throughout her body. This Would

endure for a couple of days, and a violent

antipathy toward food of all kinds, this

prejudice becoming so strong that she

could‘not bear to cook victuals, and any
attempt to swallow food would only result

indistresslng nausea,and. an instant vom-

iting of the then obnoxious morscl. . Dur-

ing her late illness MraéRellly was! attend-

ed bytwo eminent local practitioners,

both of whom'have acknowledged them.

selves unable to cope with hcrtrouble,

and an operation is entirely out of the

question, as the result, it is said, would
necessarily'bc fatal. The case certainly is

a strange one, and has created considera-
bleintercst among the local disciples of
Esculapius.—Mr‘lwaukce Sentinel.

The marvel and romance of the above
story, is badly damaged by the exact truth
as regards Mrs. Riely’s residence here.
She was the wife of William Riley, who
when sober, conducted a horse shoeing
shop in the rear of Ely’s Block. He, he.
sides being dissipated, was said to have
been unkind as, well as unfaithful to his
wife, and during his “periodicals," Mrs.
R. was subject to attacks of severe mental
and nervous prostration. She was faith-
.fully attended and nursed by Dr. Emily

called in consultation, as far as is known,
and ceftsinly none others were needed.
At suchrtimes the poor and half distract-
ed wife would refuse all food, but her pity-
sicihn had no trouble in administering to
her constantly, as she did, the richestide
. .coctions of beef tea that could be made.
and which wits swallowed with a rclish,but
under the presumable delusion, that it was
hot food, but Imneopathzb medicine that
she was imbibing. When the crring hus-
baud recovered from his sprees and ex.
pressed his contrition, the wife would rc-
coveras if by magic and all was well again,
till his next fall: The husblnnd,’_it will be
remembered, had a fit from which he
died, while on the way to Milwaukee,
and it was the belief of Mrs Riley's

h’appy event, she woiild ”mm no further

Emory Storrs, the Chicago lawyer, said
to me on the tariff question: “The
West Iras undergone the very greatest
change on that subject. It will be the
mountain for the Democrats to climb
next fall. 'They are well-known to be in,
the main an anti-protective tariff party.
The City of Chicago is a tariff city and
looks to rolling mills and manufactures to
sustain her great growth. Through
Illinois, which formerly was free-trade,
the farmers look to the towns to sustain
them and thetiwns to manufactures.
Even Iowa, which was ten years ago a
pronounced free-trade state has become
mild and thoughtful on that question.”
“Brit Mr. Storrs, suppose the farm pro-
ducts of .the West should be kept
out of Europe as the penalty of our man-
ufacturing tariff laws, would not the
farmers again be free’traders i” “Two
can play at that game," said Mr. Storrs;
“Congress will take action against Ger,
man wines and other imports from Ger-
many exactly of the 'nature of their
prohibitory laws against our produce.
That will bring any nation in Europe to
its senses.”

that there was a fire in the house. She
gave on alarm and jumped from her win-
dow to the roof of an adjoining stable.

her example, and cement them struck on

A'Baptlst Infant Picnic. .
The infant class of the Baptist Sunday
school had their annual picnic in the yard
in the rear of the church on Wednesday
afternoon, as has been the custom for the
past half dozen years. At these pleasant
gatherings those who were formerly “in-'
fants," but have out grown the class, are
expected to join in the festivities of the
occasion, thus making the affair a sort of
reunion._ The class this summer numbers
47, and Miss Hyatt has for some years
been the teacher. After the children
had assembled the followingprogramme
of exercises was carried out, all the little
ones taking part acquitting themselves
with credit :—

cases the envelopes were promptly handed
back to the driver. In others, the trivial
loss was swallowed, rather than cause a
dispute. The fact remains, however, that
the shortage in the envelopes has occurred
and for that reason we are hopeful that
the corporation will soon ~bave a large

always specially attentive. to Norwalk
patrons. So he asked his townamen to
take a turn around the course in the mail

soon were whirling around the enclosure

but their fright was of short duration, the.

tween New York and several Hudson

' Tc-morrow evening the Opera HOUSE
will resound with merry laughter
evoked by C. B. Bishop, who will show
that he is "Strictly Business" as “P. P.
Philkins.” He plays the part in a manner
that calls forth continuous roars of laugh-
ter. and a chance to laugh is what many
playgocrs desire. The Richmond Whig
says: “Bishop as I’hilkins was really im-
mcnsc. To use a trite phrase, the check,
self-reliance and conscious power of the
commercial traveler were all faithfully
portrayed. The character was never lost
sight for a moment ; indeed, we have sel-
dom seen an actor so thoroughly lose sight
of his own identity and invest himself so
completely with his part as Bishop docs
iir Philkins.” '

YOU MAY THINK

HurtsBlnileifler

Costs too much, $3.00 per
bottle. But please remember
the bottles hold one quart, and
that when taken according to
directions it will last from 4 to
6 weeks, and, too, it is pure.

Dr. Howes said to me when
here a short time ago, “there
is nothing in this medicine but
that is as wholesome as the
bread you eat, the preserving
ingredient is pure elder-berry
wine,” etc. .

If you are suffering with
Dyspepsia or Rheumatism 01'
impure blood or chills and fe-
ver, this medicine will do
you good. I have sold 184
bottles. Try it. .
