The New Haven Palladium asks: “Is
the tramp law becoming a dead letter in
Connecticut? The frequency with which
crime has been committed of late by rev-
ing vagabonds would indicate as much.
The law isa wholesome one and ought
to be rigidly enforced. No man able to
tramp about the countrylneed beg his
living in these days. and any able-bodied
man undertaking to do so should be
promptly suppresed.”

A fire which began in Stamford late on
Friday night, and after breaking out at
intervals was finally subdued late Thursday
night, has‘demonstrated the insufficiency
of the water supply there, which is con-
veyed by pipes from Trinity Lakes, a
dozen miles north of Stamford. The fire

was at Waterside Bridge, and the build-
ings consumed were an old mill and a
carpenter shop, besides a portion of the
bridge. Efforts had been made for
several successive years to secure the
building of an iron bridge, but the matter
has been postponed. The question is
now settled by the fire, which was of in-

The republicaaism of Norwalk is double
refined. To return such a capable repre-
sentative as' George R. Cowles for the

fourth time is more than "glory enough’
:for one day.—Hartford Post.

The election: of Mr. Cowlcs as repre-
sentative for the fourth time is indeed an
exceptional honor. For the only time
before in the history of Norwalk, Mr.
Wm. M. Belts was elected representative
‘four successive years, from 1799. With
this‘ exception, now eighty years ago,
Mr. Cowles is the .only man our town’s
people have united upon to send four
terms consecutively, and if they are wise
in the future as in the past, they will re.

turn him yet again.

Considerable excitement is being caused
in New Haven in consequence of the
many cases of forgery in attaching the
names of cadorsers to applications for
liquor licenses.

Monday meriiing it was discovered that
the fare-boxes in the horse-cars had been
tampered with. It is thought that some
one secreted themselves in the stable and
made an unsuccessful attempt to rob the
boxes during the- night.

Commercial travellers think special

 

roads; also special privileges in the way
of extra baggage. About January 1 they
intend to make application for lower rates
of fare, especially for Saturdays.

The Catholic fair was largely attended
Saturday evening, but owing to the
stormy weather the number present was
not so large as it otherwise would have
been, and it was decided to continue the
filir another evening. The hall was well
filled last evening and their was consider-
able excitement over the drawing of
prizes.

Yesterday a party of surveyors of the
Consolidated road commenced work on

the proposed new branch railroad up the
Saugatuck valley, at Westport; and there

is little doubt but that the new road will

soon be constructed. When finished and

in operation, it will make the fifth “feed-

er” to the Consolidated road between New

York and New Haven.

The hardware dealers of the borough
have-agreed among themselves to close
their places of business at 8 o’clock in the
evening from November 15th to Decem-
ber 1st. After that time they will close
earlier, probably from 6:30 to 7 o'clock
during the balance of the winter. There
is also a movement among the dry goods
men for c'arly closing hours, except during
the holidays.

The Ministerial association of this dis-
trict of the New York East M. E. con-
ference met; in Stamford yesterday, and
closes its work to marrow. The sessions
are open to the public in the. chapel at
the corner of Main andRin-r streets.
Among the topics assigned for discussion
to-day is, “Should the Limitation on
the Appointment in the iltineracy be Re-
moval,”_opened by Rev. Ar za Hill of the
city M. E church.

On Sunday last, a man going tip Rich-
mond Hill, in Stamford, found a large
portion of the jewelry which was recently
stolen from Jackson's store. An officer
was notified and took charge of the
goods. The jewelry and watches had
been thrown into a fire, evidently in wane

ton sport, and were most] ruined. Sub-
sequenti'yu ‘lUtI'flIUI'B'Ul' '6 C‘SLUI’CIJ’" goods"

were found in a pawnbrokers shop in
Stamford, and on Saturday another bun-
dle was found alongside the railroad
track. The goods, as far as recovered,
have been returned to Mr. Jackson, but
quite a valuable portion is missing yet.

General S. R. Smith, commander of

Friday, at the Elliot House, New Haven,
Colonies 'l‘ubbs of‘the Third regiment,
Crofut of the Fourth regiment, and
Colonels Fox _aad Morgan, and further
facts were arrived at in reference to
Connecticut’s participation in the cele-
bration of Evacuation day in New York,
November 26th. An invitation has been
extended through General Smith to the
whole Connecticut National Guard by the
New York committee. Further favora-
ble reports have been received from the
different regiments, and General Smith
will bear to-day from the,First regiment,
the battery and Fifth battalion. While

represented at the celebration. The First
regiment will go to New York by boat
from Hartford, the Second will start from

iand New London and the Fourth from
Bridgeport. ’ Arrangements will probably
be made to land the troOps at Twenty-

York, Friday, that New York expects
the whole Connecticut brigade to take

Colsolidated Road Additions.

An addition to jibe Consolidated road
is in progress of completion which will
add greatly to the convenience of the road.
A bridge is to cross Harlem river just
east of Second avenue. It will be a con
tinuation of the elevated, and is intended
as an extension of the rapid transit lines
It will be a valuable adjunct to the road,
as it furnishes a new method of entering
the city, and one entirely independent of '
the Harlem railroad. which now receives
toll for every passenger carried into the
Grand Central depot Over the New York
and New Haven division. ' -

 

Oysters Will Be Plenty.

A German scientist has discovered a
method of eradicating star—fish, the most
destructive enemy of the oysters, and the
discovery he has made has led, it is said,
to the formation of a‘ company composed
of Chicago and New York capitalists,
who will biiy up the oyster beds about
New Haven and run them under control
of a joint stock company. The whole
Connecticut coast has been inspected by
these capitalists, who finally settled on
New Haven harbor as the best place.
The syndicate has some twenty members,
with a capital of $25,000,000. The revis—
ion of the oyster laws will form a feature
of the legislature at the coming session.

discovered the fire and quickly extinguish-

calling out the Fire Department. The
design of the incendiary was probably to
break up .the ovation and to average a

schemes of the New York, Connecticut

CRITICAL STRIKERS. c
The newspaper dramatic critics. writes

a New York correspondent, are sharpen-
ing their pencils and wits for an active

campaign. I blush to say that some of
the best known of these gentlemen con-
nected with the press of this city have an
exceedingly mercenary side, and do not
scruple or hesitate to “strike” either man

agers or artists for money, board, clothes,
jewlery, or other valuables. I know an
impressario who was compelled to open
and keep a large summer cottage at. L'Otlg
Branch, where six or eight of these gentle-
men went with their wives and stayed
for many weeks. I know two dramatic
critics who were discharged from the
Herald; one who was discharged from the
World, and one who was very summarily
put out of an ov‘ng paper for unscrupué
lously blackmailing noted singers. Every
prima donna who ever sang a season in
New York has had to pay money to some
drastic critic for their favor. I know a
critic whose wife said to a noted prima
donna who will sing here this winter:
“Come! You are going to Europe this
week. Bring me a camel's hair shawl
when you return this fall. Don’t flail!"
And the cantatrice brought it and laid it
about the fair shoulders; I know another
who wears a watch got by the some com-
placent assurance. What a world this is!

Welch and some words passing between

tack Whitlock who thereupon knocked
or pushed Welch down, and springing
upon him beat him in a frightful manner.
'Ofilcer Kemper’ hastened to the spot and
took Whitlock away and into custody.
Welch was helped up and taken to Kem-
per’s market where the blood was washed
of. His face was terribly bruised, one
eye being entirely closed. Officer Kem-
,per harnessed his horse and seat Welch

amounting in all to about £3.00.
