We call attention to the card of Mrs. E.

The great showman grasped Mr. Elaine’s
hand at Bridgeport and said with enthusi-
asm: “Why, Blaine, how well you look."
“ch," said'Mr. Blaine, “I feel remark-
ably well, and the reason is I drink the
same kind Of liquor you do, Barnum."

Did ever mortal man make a more un-

fortunate use of the personal pronoun

“we” than Mr. Beecher when he said:—
“If all men in New York state who have
broken the seventh commandment would
vote for Cleveland WE would elect him.”

Many were surprised upon awaking
Saturday morning to find their front gates
promiscuously “swapped” with those of
near neighbors.
Hallow e’en when mischievous youths
and goblins are supposed to be arcuhuh
the cause is evident. ’ I

George R. Cowles is 1'01" Idliihfirst, party
which shall get the nggge'y' to build a rail-
road and gees-uti‘c in good faith. Smith
is pledged to support the Hartford &.
Hr.- rlcm at all events, even if the Boston &
Albany, or some other powerful syndicate
are ready to begin building another next
January.

We have received from the publishers,
F. A. North & 00., 1,908 Chestnut street,
Philadelphia, a fine selection ‘ of sheet
music, including “Our Fallen Heroes,”
a beautiful'memorial march, and several
sacred and humorous pieces. This firm
offers a splendid catalogue of Christmas
carols.

—We consider the “ Sky Bluing Book"
a wonderful discovery. Never before has
an ultramarine bluing been produced that
was sedimentless. Now you can have the
beautiful blue of the ball bluings, without
the sediment which spots the clothes.
Get a book from R. P. Beatty, grocer,
N orwalk, Conn., and try it.

The “lOne star" member of the indepen-
dent document distributing committee
here in Norwalk has been most indefat.
igable in circulating the vile democratic
slanders against Mr. Blaine. He will live,
we have not a doubt, to be heartily
ashamed of his participation in this dirty
work, and the decent truth loving repub-
licans of Norwalk can well afford to await
his contrition.

George R. Cowles has been conspicuous
for years in efforts to imprOve the town
by inducing large and small manufacturers
to locate here. Does not every bodyknow
that? Who can think he is not heartily in
favor of the first rail road which can be
built. He said in the legislature he was.

He has said so ever since. , Who says he
is not ? Not a scul but a newspaper man
who was the paid advocate of one partic.
ular railroad project.

Smith is pledged to Hartford do Harlem
alone according to his organ. Cowles
favors any competent party which, will
soonest actually build. If it is the Hart-
ford & Harlem so much the better for the
Hartford & Harlem. If it be the Boston
do Albany or the Pennsylvania Central,
which will first actually build, Smith is
still for the Hartford & Harlem, but
Cowles is for the first party which will
actually build.

The Century Co. send the following

notice to dealers :——“ The first edition of w

the vaember Century, containing the
opening paper in the war series—General
~Beaureguard on “The Battle of Bull Run"

mand, however, exceeds that for any pre-
vious issue, and a new edition is on the
press, to be published immediately after

Which is the most sensible position,
that of Cowles for the first road that can
be built, or that of Smith for the Hartford

—Dr. Holland’s Pills contain neither
quinine, arsenic, or any other dangerous,
drug, dan can therefore be taken by 'per

Forty attacks in one newspaper on
George R. Cowles as candidate for sena-
tor! Why? Because he wont pledge
himself to support one particular railroad.
which it is not certain will ever be built.

and a perfect ultramarine blue. We know,
for we have tried it.

14, in her 89th year. She was a. native of
this town, the eldest daughter of the late
Isaac Jennings and sister Of our esteemed

, townsman, Gould D. Jennings, Esq.

So heavy were the expenses of the late

fair in the effort to make it superior to its
predecessors and so had was the weather,

there having been but one pleasant day,

that President Ely expresses the hope that
all who can will feel willing to omit draw-
ing the cash premiums awarded them.

It was rough on the sound Thursday,
and steamboat navigation was seriously
interfered with. The Crystal Wave went
through to Bridgeport about 15 minutes
late, but the Rosedalc-dropped anchor at
Gréenwich. The“Harlem”howevercame
up on good time.

At the annual meeting of the stock-
holders of the Danbury and Norwalk rail-
road, held in South Norwalk, Thursday,
the old board of directors was re-elected.
Subsequently the board re-elected the
same officers as last year. The finances
of the road are in excellent condition.

All liquor licenses expired Fridaybut no
sellers will be liable to prosecution until
the county commissioners shall have acted
upon their applications for renewal. It is
expected that the commissioners will come
to Norwalk to act upon the various appli-
cations some time between the 10th and
15th of the present month. '
» In these exciting election times the pub-
lic should not forget the musical " attra c.
tion offered by Manager Mitchell for next
Monday evening at the Opera House. It
is nothing less than the renowned opera
of “The Beggar Student,” which has met
with such unparalleled success in New
York and other large cities. As will be
seen by the cast in another column the
company comprises first-class artists, and
in securing them Manager Mitchell has
played a trump card. Reserved seats at
Plaisted’s. ,

The People’s
been playing to crowded houses the past
week and have realized a good investment.
On Saturday evening hundreds were
turned from the door there not being even
standing room in the hall. Such a state
of affairs, never happened before. The
company embraces fine actors and act-
resses and, as the most' painstaking care
is taken in the portrayal of their various
parts, it is no wonder that the People’s
Theatre company have become the popular
theatre company in one short week.

Sylvester Vanfioosear.

The death of Mn. VANHoosEAE was a
startling and painful surprise to his many
friends in this community. It was known
that he was ill, but the general impression
prevailed that he was comfortably and
not at all dangerously sick, and when the
announcement came that he was dead,
we have never witnessed more marked
and tender expressions ‘of sorrow, sympa-
thy and regret. He was the head of our
leading dry goods house; a director in
one banking institution and a corporator
in another; a popular member in the Odd
FellOwslodge; for twenty years a member
of the First Congregational church; a
member of the Norwalk Board of Trade;
an earnest, working member of the repub-
lican party, and, as the admirer and
champion of Mn BLAJNE, be accompanied
Mr. Hill, our delegate, to the convention
at which he was nominated for the presi-
dency. He loved Norwalk and believed
in and labored for its growth and prosper-
ity, and, years ago, in this spirit he erect-
ed one of the finest residences on our most
attractive avenue.

As a merchant and business man he was
methodical, sagacious and indefatigable.
His position, influence and prominence
were all won by those qualities that com.
mand the respect of mankind. He had
no prestiges of wealthy parents or illustri.
ous ancestry to bring him into notice.
His success in life was the old, old story
of a poor, but upright and courageous
country boy making his way to the front
by the sheer force of his own high re-
solves. A character such as his is a thing
of long and steady growth. It is not
gained by any one lucky stroke of fortune,
or lost by any trivial error or thoughtless
folly. It is the uniform- and well
ordered lifeaman leads, the high purposes,
the noble aspirations he exhibits, that win
and hold the esteem of his upright fellow
men. -

With others, we' remember Mr. Van
Hoosear as a lad scarce sixteen, a clerk in'
Bennett’s store at a salary of less than a
dollar per week. Herc during several
subsequent years of service 'he won the
good will of his employers, the afiection
of his associates, and the kindly regard of
patrons of the store. Here he met Mr.
Ambler, who though some years his junior,
had preceded him two years in his service
at Bennett’s. In December, 1868, these
youths formed a business copartnership
and bought out the dry goods house of
Morris do Doty,-in the GAZETTE building;
where they soon passed to the head and
became the acknowledged leaders in that
trade in Norwalk. Here their firm has
continued and their business prospered

until broken by his untimely death. Mr.

VanHoosear leaves a widow, a mother,
four brothers and five sisters to mourn
their irreparable loss.

His funeral was attended at 3 p. m.
Saturday the services being conducted by
Rev. Messrs. Bissell and Everest. The
many floral tributes. bestowed by sorrow-
ing friends, were of unique and beautiful
designs, and most profuse in numbers.
The scroll presented by the Bank of
Norwalk was particularly noticeable and

beautiful.

, A Remarkable Cure.

An interesting case of the efficacy of
homeopathy in the treatmentjof horses was
illustrated in the curing of a valuable
horse belonging to Mr. William L. Hope,
of Brooklyn. Some few weeks ago the
horse not appearing to feel well was
taken to an eminent veterinary surgeon
of Brooklyn who, after treating the ani-
mal unsuccessfully, pronounced the case
incurable. Not altogether satisfied with
the doctor’s opinion Mr. Hope thought a
change might be beneficial and brought
the horse to the farm of Messrs. Finch
Brothers, Chestnut Hill, Norwalk. No
improvement being noticed in the horse’s
condition two celebrated New York doc-
tors were called on who pronounced the
case as hopeless, giving the horse twelve
hours to live. A neighbor happening to
drop in to look at the horse suggested'
that homeopathy be tried. Mr. Bates, of
Cranberry Plains, was mentioned as an
expert in the homeopathic treatment, and
Mr. Hope drove over to his residence and
secured his services. After sounding the
animal, taking his temperature and pulse,
Mr. Bates said the horse was suffering
from distemper, lung fever and quinzy
sore throat, and while the case was a very
serious one if Mr. Hope ofiered no oppo-
sition he would endeavor to efiect a cure.
None being offered, Mr. Bates commenced
immediately, and while the work at times
was very laborious,when the time allotted
by the New York doctors for the horse to
live had expired the animal had so
much improved, that the doctor gave
it as his opinion that the cure would be
successful. Today the horse is apparent-
farm of the Finch Brothersr'The cars-
has excited quite an interest on Chestnut
Hill, and has been the means of making
quite a number of converts to' the home-
opathic treatment.

Victory!

Every patriot soldier who fought during
the rebellion and found a southern demo-
crat behind every gun, knows with what
deep, considerate and solemn care and
energy preparation was made for the
morrow’s battle. All the weary night
before a battle details were perfected for
the coming struggle, the supreme endeavor,
that should protect and defend the nation.
So today, and all the intervening hours
from now till ’to-morrow night, let every
patriot prepare for the last great struggle
of the “solid south,” and its northern
allies. To-morrow’s battle is to be desper-
ately contested, but vroronr will surely
adorn our banners now as twenty years
ago, if every patriot will do his duty.
The PEOPLE believe in our candidates and
mean to elect them. The people believe
in a fair vote and an honest count. In
protection to every American man and
interest. In fine, the people believe in
the republican party that defeated the
democracy of the “solid south” and their
allies of the north for twenty years.

Vote early yourself; vote the entire
republican ticket, and then devote all
tomorrow to aiding your committees in

getting out the run. REPUBLICAN vorE.

The Church Union puts the question :—
“To whom should religious men give
their votes i” and answers it thus :—

Not to Cleveland, surelyl A man who
has been branded ‘as grossly immoral be-
find the possibility of defence at the

ads of his warmest friends; against
whom charges have been substantiated so
clearly that it is not slander to refer to
them, and who has given no evidence Of
penitence or . reform. And then, other
considerations apart, Mr. Cleveland is not
a man of sufficient experience or the right
sort of training to be intrusted with such
an important office as that of the presi-
dency.

How is this from Cleveland's letter to

Mrs. Beecher :—

Ido not wonder that your good hus-
band is perplexed. ’ Cannot I manage to
see him and to tell him what Ieannotwrite!
I shall be in New York Wednesday and
Thursday morning, I suppose, ofnectweek.
Thursday afternoon and evening I shall
spend in Brooklyn.

The reader must be duly impressed, we
hope, by the “true manliness, honesty and

self-respect" evinced in the foregoing.

The New York Parade.

The great republican parade Friday
night exceeded anything of the kind in the
history of that city. Notwithstanding the
inclement weather over sixty thousand «
merI took part in the demonstration. The
enthusiasm which could bring out such
a parade in such weather speaks volumes
for the republican cause. The same kind
of enthusiasism has met Mr. Blaine wher-
ever he has been. It foretells a sweeping
republican victory to-morrow.

Mr. Blaine In Town.

OUR NEXT PRESIDENT AT SOUTH

NOEWALK SPEAKS TO A GATHER-

EING OF 8,000 PEOPLE.

For the first time in the history of the
town, we believe, a presidential candidate
has made a speech within its borders.
And though but a short speech, lasting
not more than ;four or five minutes we
doubt if, in so short a time and in so few
words, so much of vital importance to our
town, state and country was ever ex-
pressed by anyone. Besides the effect
produced by Mr. Blaine's judiciously ex—
pressed sentiments, the impression made
by his presence was a decidedly favora-
ble one and, if we mistake not, that
influence will be shown when the votes
are counted at the town house tomorrow
night.

The announcement had been made that
Mr. Blaine would leave New York at 9 a.
m. on Saturday and proceed direct to
Hartford where he would deliver an
address. Then, returning, he was an-
nounced to speak at Meriden, Walling-
ford, New Haven and Bridgeport, arriv-
ing'at South Norwalk at 4:20 p. m. This
programme was carried out.

As early as three o’clock crowds began
to gather around the depot and select the
most eligible place from which to see and
hear the distinguished visitor. The
platform car from which Mr. Blaine was
to speak, appropriately draped with flags,
stood on the switch‘at _the eastern end of
the Idepot. By; four o’clock the depot
platform, the surrpunding spaces, win-
dows of every :adjacent building andin
fact every available ‘place was crowded
with an eager expectantImultitude, in

[From Gov. Cleveland’s message, Jan. 1, 1884.]
The fees allowed to pilots should un-
doubtedly be reduced. Repeated efforts
have been made to have the fees reduced
by'law, but they still remain a danger
which cannot longer be concealed to the
supremacy of the port and, the pros rity
of the state. Representations mad): to
me by both the commercial interests af-
fected and the pilots leave in my mind
not the shadow of doubt that it is the duty
of the legislature, in the interests of the
stute to regulate these fees so that they
wfll cease to be, as now, higher than at
other ports in this and foreign countries.

The reduction proposed is a large one,
and it is claimed wil permit no dividends
to investors. This ma not be true, but
we should be satisfied it is not before the
proposed law takes' place. It is manifest-
ly important that invested capital should
be protected, and that its necessity and
usefulness in the development of enter-
prises valuable to the people should be
recognized by conservative conduct on
the part of the state government.

cLEVELAND.

[From the Record of the Assembly.]

Snorrox 1. 0n and after the passa e of
this act it shall be unlawful for any 0 cer
or agent of any railroad corporation in
any of the cities of this state, whose cars
are drawn _by horses, to exact from con-
doctors or drivers emplo ed by them
more than twelve hours‘ 19. rfor a day’s
wurk, and such co ration shah, out of
said twelve hours’ abor, allow such con-
ductors and drivers a reasonable time to

 

which ladies were as plentiful as men.
Competent judges estimated the number
of people present to bebetweensix and ten

.thousand. It was a good natured and

orderly crowd and when, at 4:20 it was

announced that the train was twenty

minutes late, they patiently stood their
ground without a murmur. At 4:40 the
train rolled into the station amid-'excla-
mations of “Here' he comes I” and long
and loud applause. ,

As Mr. Blaine appeared at the door of
his car cheer after cheer rose] from the
crowd and the noise did not subside until
long after he had mounted the platform
car and motioned for silence. As soon as
the applause had subsided Hon. P. C.
Lounsbury, of Ridgefield, introduced Mr.
Blaine who spoke, as follows:

This is one of the Connecticut towns that
might well be cited as an illustration of what
American industry can do under the stimulus
of protective laws. [Cheers.] I understand
vour po uletion is about 15,000 and the pro-
ducts 0 your industry $15,000,000 per ear._ I
am sure there are few communities on t is side
Of‘ the Atlantic or on the other side that can
show a ratio between apopulation and produc-
tion more favorable than that. -

Your town has a histo record in war as
well as in peace, for if the 'storian Bancroft 13
to be credited our ,anceslors sent more men
into the Revoln ‘onary strng 16 than an other

town of equal population in a the old irteen

states. So that you were good at n sting when
that was in order [laughter an “Goodl”]
and good at work when that became your
interest [applause]. and when a commum- is
good both in peace and in war it has estabhs ed
its reputation.

Closing with an earnest appeal for every
man to vote for protection to American
industry at the pollsjon Tuesday, and thus
verify this predictions, made while out
west, as to Connecticut’s vote, Mr.
Blaine :introduced General John C. Fre-
mont, the republican candidate for presi-
dentin 1856. Mr. Fremont was heartily
cheered and in turn introduced§the Hon.
Henry B. Harrison who started to: speak
but was interrupted by the “All aboard”
of the conductor of the train.
The distinguished party then left the.
platform car and boarded their train which
moved off amid the cheers of the immense
throng.

NOTES AND iNomENrs.
In spite of the crowd and the continu-
ous running of trains no one was hurt.
A special train from Danbury brought
down six densely packed car loads of
human freight to see the next president.
Mr. Blaine was accompanied by his
daughter, Miss Margarette, Miss Dodge,
(Gail Hamilton). his son, James G., Jr.,
General Fremont, Chauncey Depew,
SamuelfFessenden, Colonel Vincent Colyer

Norwalk committee joined him at Bridge-
port and the Stamford committee at South
Norwalk.

The windows of all the adjacent build-
ings covering a sight of Mr. Blaine were
filled with eager faces. Our own thanks
and gratitude are due the generous land-
lady of the Mahackemo for the use of a
most eligible window for the ladies of the
editorial family.

As the party descended from the plat-
form car and pushed their way to the
train, an aged lady in spite of all opposi-
tion pushed herself to the front and ex-
tended :her hand towards Mr. Blaine.
The latter paused a moment, and asghe

hand the old lady‘axnsimeor.‘ ‘godvbless
you, Mr. Blaine!”
As the train left the depot a number ran
after and clung {to the railings of the rear
car, on the platform of which Mr. Blaine
was standing and waving his handker-
chief. Mr. :Blaine, fearful lest some
should be hurt, begged them to desist, but
one man, more persevering than the rest,
clung to the “bumper" and said—“I'm a

poor mechanic, Mr. Blaine! Won’t you

and grasping the man’s extended hand,
with a vigorous shake, Mr. Blaine re-
sponded—“Don’t say you're a poorme.
chanic for I know you're a good one."
Numerous attempts were made to pos-
sess Mr. Blaine’s handkerchief which he
constantly waved at the people, but they
proved unsuccessful.

Mr. Blaine looked pale and worn, but
stated to the GAZETTE reporter that he
never felt better in his life, and, though
he had traveled twenty thousand miles
and made over three hundred speeches
in the past few weeks and had been
obliged to keep all kinds of hours, he
actually felt more rested than when he
started on his western trip.

Numbers of Norwalkers went down to
Stamford where Mr. Blaine made his next
stop and where he spoke to an immense
concourse of people. In fact wherever he
stopped in Connecticut he was greeted by
multitudes which in their presence were
significant tokens of the victory which
will surely rest upon the republican cause
to-morrow. '

Excellent candidates for Congress.

The people of this state see all around
them the evil results of the tarifi tinkering
which the democratic majority in the
House of Representatives attempted last
spring. Industries were prostrated' and
business crippled by embarassmcuts which
were caused by the agitation attending
the Morrison bill. Every voter who wishes
to see American manufacturing restored
to a sound prosperity and kept there
should not only do his best for the National
ticket, but should also exert himself to
send a few republicans to congress.

Stomach vs. Drains.
A Norwalk gentleman was standing in
front of the New York hotel last Wednes-
day, when the business men's parade was
passing. General Beureguard was an in-
terested observer of the solid character of
the men who were in the Blaine procession
and remarked to his companion :——“ I
hope this is the last time our party will
try to match belly with brains.”

nsxnv WARD BEEcuEa's BREAD AND WATER
season.

(From the New York Times, J uly 23, 1877.]
“The necessities of the great railroad
companies demanded that there should be
a reduction of wages. There must be
continual shrinkage until things come
back to the gold standard, and wa es, as
well as greenbacks, provisions an prop-
erty, must share in it. It was true that
$1 a da was not enou h to supports
man an five children i a man would
insist on smoking and drinking beer.
Was not a dollar a day enou h to buy
bread? Water costs nothing. an can-
not live by bread alone, it is true, but the
man who cannot live on bread and water
is not fit to live. When a man is educated
away from the power of self-denial, he is
falsely educated. A family may live on
good bread and water in the morning,
water and bread at midday, and good
water and bread at nigh . Such may be
called the bread of afliiction, but it was fit
that men should eat of the bread of afflic-
tion. Thousands would be very glad of a
dollar a day, and it added to the sin of
the men on strike for them to turn round
and say to those men, ‘You can do so, but
you shall not.’ There might be special
cases of hardship, but the great laws of
political economy could not be set at
defiance.”

He concluded by declaring that in the
end the men on strike woul be defeated,
trade resumed, and pros erity once more
reign throughout the land:

To provide by law that laboring men

and combined for its protection, and that
all devices, either by contract or terrorism

In 1864 Thomas A. Hendricks said :—
“You can never whi the south.” But
the boys in blue did it, and now they are
ready to whip Hendricks.
The People’s arty managers in Maine
are out in an a dress declaring that the
insinuation that Butler is in secret alliance
with the republicans is false, and urging
those who believe in General Butler to
vote and work for him.
A business man of Buffalo told a gentle-
man in this city that Mr. Cleveland, be.
fore he had the position of governor
thrust upon him, found his recreation in
saloons playing dominoes, etc., “for the
drinks,” to use the phrase of those places.

Afew days ago the New York World
said that the employees in a certain silk
factory did not dare to vote forCleveland.
They are out in a card in which they de-
clare that no one could possibly induce
them to vote for the British candidate.

He [Cleveland] sympathizes with those
democrats who preach free-trade and a
tariff for revenue only, and seek to break
up and clear away entirely the foundation
on which have been built the greater part

There was to be e dunocratic barbecue,

the programme was carried out. Men
who too partin the procession affected

were wrong. a roasted ox was eaten
in ahall instead of out of doors and after
dinner a echcs were made by the Hon.
