Company F’s sociable was held at the
armory last Tuesday evening. Owing to
the threatening weather and the rival ‘
attraction at the Opera House,_there was
not a large attendance, but those present
seemingly enjoyed themselves. Major 0.
E. Doty was present as a spectator, and
took considerable interest in the affair.
The major was, we believe, a prominent
factor in the location of the company in
Norwalk.
Friends of Major W. B. Wescome, of
Stamford, will be pleased to leaan that
that gallant ex-soldier has received his
pension from the government. He :is
rated at $12.00 a month and the back pay
amounted to over $3,000. The major,
while leading a charge through a ravine.
fell and hurt his hip. 'An abcess was the
result which has never healed, and which
incapacitates him from manual labor.
In General Grant’s paper on Shiloh, in
the next number of the Century, he tells
the story of a narrow escape of, himself
and two stafi oficers who got within
range of the Confederate musketry on the
second day of the battle. A ball struck
the metal scabbard of General Grant’s
sword just below the hilt, and broke it
nearly off. v Before the battle was over it
had broken cfi entirely. Of the stafi cfiia
cers. one lost a horse and the other a hat.
A lady residing on Union Park narrow-
ly escaped having her house burglarized
one evening last week. Just as she was
prepari g to disrobe for the night she
heard a suspicious noise on the tin roof
surmounting the kitchen of the house in
which she lives. This noise was followed
by a scratching at the shutters as if
someone was endeavoring to force an
entrance. Considerably frightened the
lady was on the point of calling for help
when a loud me-a-mw at the bedroom
widow proved that the midnight marauder‘
was a neighbor‘s pet Thomas cat which
had climbed on to the roof and was intent
upon getting inside out of the cold. The
lady in question now sings a portion of
the first act of Pinafore. Q
The annual banquet of the Sumner
League of Connecticut willbe given at the

Boston. Mr. Gibson, of course, presided
at the organ. Miss Hall‘s voice is a
round, rich, deep contralto and shows the
most careful training. while nature has
been most kind to her in giving a remark-
able voice for her development. Mr.

Mr.'James L. Grifilth died at his home
in Potters Landing, Maryland, on Friday,
in the 72d year of his age. More than
twenty years ago Mr. Grifilth was propri-
etor of the livery stable now owned by
George S. Gregory. He was well-known
here, and several of his children are hon.
cred residents of Norwalk. The body of
the deceased will be brought to Norwalk
and funeral services will be held tomorrow
at the residence of his son-indaw, Mr. R.
S. Morehouse.
News was received here last week of
the death at Corpus Christi, Texas, cf
Antoinette Keeler, wife of Edwin Mallory ,
Esq., of that place., Mrs. Mallory, prior
to her marriage, resided in Norwalk in a
house which stood where the residence of
Dr. T. E. Swift now is. She was ‘a niece
of David Stevenson who, some 30 years
ago, ran the present Norwalk Hotel. She
was married at the hotel‘to Mr. Mallory,
who is a son of the late Charles Mallory of
this place. She leaves ahusband and four
children to mourn her 1053.
Mr. Thomas L. Bell, of this place, re-
ceived a genuine surprise last week in the
shape of a visit from a brother whom he
had not seen since 1841, forty-three years
ago. At that time Mr. Bell, with his
parents and. brother, lived at Berwick-on-
Tweed, Séotland."His brother left home
to join the English artillery and Mr. Bell
never saw him afterward until last week.
The brother served twenty-one years in
the artillery, taking part in the Crimean
war. At the close of his service he was
pensioned by the English government.
The brothers were overjoyed at meeting
again.
By special r'equest of many citizens of
thls town the Pauline Markham combina-
ticn have been secured for the present
week in an entire change of programme ;
and as the company gave such excellent
satisfaction at the Opera House last week
no doubt their performances will be
largely attended. It is very seldom that
our public have an opportunity of seeing
such an'excellent company for such a low
price of admission, and they should
receive the support of the public. During
the company's engagement at New Haven
Miss Markham as‘QCamille, was called
from the death scene before the curtain,
an occurrence never before known. Not-
withstanding the excellence of this com.
pany the prices will be only 15 and 25
cents for reserved seats, which may be
obtained at Plaisted's drug stores.

The Oyster Industry.
The fourth annual report of» the Shell Firh
Commissioners, prepared by Judge Pike. he-
gins with a statement of the fact that the com-
missioners have found it necessary to devote
more time to the business than during any
previous year. This 'is owing to,tlle rapid in-
crease of the oyster industry. The past year
has been unfavorable to work an the water;
but the engineers have surveyed and deter-
‘mined 923 positions as against 787 the year pre-
vious. This work has been helped materially
by the systems and charts devised by the en-
gineers in the field. The engineers have
accumulated a. vast deal of material necessary
to the commissioners’ work, which is constant-
ly being utilized by Engineer Bogart. During
the year there have been ninety—two applies-x
lions, covering about 4,418 acres. The whole
number pf acres designated during the year is
6,505, being under applications made this year
and in pronoun years. These designations
brought to the state treasury $7,596.24. SeVen-
ty-one applications are still ending and fifteen
deeds await payment. '1' e commissioners'
designation! from the beginning foot up 45,-
045.58 acres, and they have netted to the slale
$45,560.03. The report proceeds to discuss the
difficulties that met the commissioners in their
efforts to reach a fair apprisal ol oyster grounds
and to show'that no one possesses the means
of reaching Just conclusions that can compal c
with these which the commissioners have seen-
mul ted and are constantly accumulating in
t- e progress of their work. The great msjuri y
ol oysm. {f'ulVlll‘S have accepted .noir apprais-
al and paid the tax bills cheerfully. 'lh -.
rapid growth :of the industry is considered.
The first ~.’eamcr, the Early Bird, t nu w :3
used in trade, was put on less than ten vr-a. s
ago, and now there are forty steamels with n
aggregate capacity of 86,720 [11411813 a do).
Four more large new steamers arr building,
and will be at work in the spring. Sh pmenls
are made of seed and full grown at 0n nfmwdio
um size in great quantifies One film shipped
10,000 barrels, another 5,000, another $20.00.»
another 2,000 bushels, and one shipment to
California counted 6,259 bushels. flue com-
. misslouers a few wee s ago sent a list of ques-
tions, touching the industry of the 38136,“) all
the oystermeu and answers were solicited.
About 350 persons were addressed. but replies
were received from only sixty. The questions
were respectfully answered and the informa-
ticu given was valuable. The answers in re-
giaid'to star fish are intereslin and instructive.
anv cultivators have not an cred from these
marauder's at all while the dams e to others
can be counted by thousands of do lars. There
was an unusual influx of these pests the past
year, and the oyster rowers have been com-
celled to exercise t e uuncst vigilance in the
protection of their stock. They ave caught
undreds of thousands of them at a. rest ex-
pense. It is behaved, however, that t is is not
to continue; There may be years of res its,
and such incursions wrll occur onl at ong
intervals. - Many plans have been ad mitted to
the commissioners for tho extermination of the
stars. But the mattcris surrounded with such
difiiclllty,that the commissioners do not vane
turs to recommend any method unless it may
be that there is an intimation that bounty
might be aid lcr ev -r_v bushel caught on the
public be s, as it in in vhcsc beds, it is claimed,
that the stars are accustomed to breed.

Somd‘Should; cram Should Not!
We have received the following notice:

cuss the cation whether clergyman should
"meddle with politics." _
Collectively perhaps they should. But
Henry should not. He is double-tongued.

Rink Notes.
For courteous and gentlemanly attention
lhe management of our local rink is not
excelled by that of any other in the state.
Over ninety of the Norwalk Skate Club
tickets have been s lid and the club is full.
T le members anticipate a great deal of
syort from the social organization.
The morning and afternoon classes are
iaily growing larger and it.lopks as if
Messrs. Palmer and Haller would soon
have to enlarge the rink to accommodate
.thc ever increasing throng.
The battaliqfidrill of Companies F and
and was witnessed by a large audience.
The evolutions of the companies were
generally applauded, and it was impossi-
ble to deride which organization was the
nest drilled. .
.The exhibition at the rink on Tuesday
evening was more than worth the admis-
sion charged. The juggling on the slack
wirv was simply wonderful, and the boy
contortionist was likewise good. The
all aged “dude" on rollers might just as
well have been omitted as it interested no
one. Tue most interesting feature was
the race between the champion skater
vlr. Belknap, on rollers, and Mr. O. B.
Jackson, on a bicycle. This was cloae
and exciting. Belknap got the best of
the start and was half a lap ahead before
Jackson had got fairly under way. This
pcsxtion was kept. till the eighth lap,
n-ither one gaining or losing. On the
eighth lap Mr. Jackson’s bicycle slipped
on the smoothxfioor and he fell. He was
quickly up again, but meanwhile Belknap
had added another lap to_his lead. This
position was never altered and Belknap
von by a lap and a half. His advantage
lay in turning the corners more quickly
than Jackson could on his machine.
. Half an hour‘s observation of a com-
pany of roller skaters will convince any
person that he can skate just as well as
any of those skating, and when he puts on
the rollers five seconds are sufficient to
convince him that he can't do anything of
the kind. To preserve cne‘s equilibrium
on a pair of rollers is the easiest thing to
do under the broad expanse of heaven, in
one‘s mind, and the novice finds this to
he the gospel truth the moment he attempts
the trick by asspming the sitting posture
without design, and to his great dismay
the spectators have the bad minors to
make merry over his humiliation. More
convenient states could be made for
novices. We suggest as an experiment
that each beginner be furnished with four
skates-one for each foot, one for the back
of the head, and the fourth for another
valuable spot. In this way the new man
could move right along with the procession,
avoid being walked upon by everybody
else, and straighted up at his own sweet
leisure—Hartford Times.
The Strike.
There is no particular change in the
batting question since our last report.
Crofut & Kuapp’s shop No. 2 is at Work
wizha large force composed mostly of
non-union men, though some fifteen or
twenty of the strikers who have succumb-
ed are at work there. At the regular
meeting of the' Central Labor Union of
New York, held Sunday, a committee
from the South Norwalk batters reported
that there are 1,250 men and women
locked out. They represent about 3,500
pe0ple. The lock-out is not a question of
wages. The operatives were willing to
accept a reduction. The fight is against
giving up the union. A report had gone
out that the strike had ended. This was
a mistake, only four men have gone back
to work. There are 750 women in the
union whom the bosses had endeavored.
to get to break away, but they had met
with no success. The private marks of
the bosses was given to the Central Labor
Union and 20,000 circulars containing fac
similes will be distributed in the city
asking consumers not to buy South N or-
walk hats. Communications have been,
sent to local assemblies of the Knights of
Labor in 150.cities and towns warning
them against the hats. ‘

Shipped by the Light of the Moon.
The famous c medians Harrison and Gour-
lay,‘supported by their magnificent comedv
irgahization, will appear at the South Nor-walk
\fusic Hall, Monday cveninp, January 17th.
presenting their phenominal y successful and
nuivcrsullv acknowledged most humorous of

This production has created a perfect furore
in all the principal cities at this country for t! e
past-two years, and everywhere from New Yo k
to San Francisco, is con edsd to be the bet,-

Notwithstanding the fact that this play has
been performed over 500 times, South Nor-

evor been done ,
The New York Herald speaking of the 150

ed by t ose popular and versatile comedians, dar-
rlscn & Gourlay and their clever company to sup-
port, has made a great hlt at the Fifth Avenue

lts sols object is to raise a breeze. The breeze
which Harrison and Gourlay have raised by it has
got quite beyond their control, and grown to an
unmanageable magnitude of a cyclone. The most
lmperturbable nature goes down before It without
a show of resistance, and everybody rolls and
shakes and lau ha. Nothing in t e way of farclal
invention that as been seen here in recent years
can be compared to it for rapld action, novel situ-

On Sunday morning about nine o‘clock
smoke was seen issuing from one of the
cottages on Compo Place by Mr. David
‘Whitney, who lives opposite. Au alarm
was at once gTv‘cn and the fire department
was con on hand. Compo Engine
arrived. first but was out of order and
could not be made to work. so that the
entire dependence was upon Vigilant.
The flames, however, werc~~confined
between the walls and siding so that holes
had to be cut through the roof and sides
soon under control. It was undoubtedly
of incendiary origin there being indica-
tions that it was set on fire under the
cellar stairs. The house had been un-
occupied for the past two years, and the
theory is that a tramp gained admission
and stayed through the night setting it on
fire on his departure. The damage'
amounting to about $500 was partly
covered by insurance. .

. Ma. Emron :—-I think I Dean claim,
without fear of contradiction, that I have
devoted as much time and contributed of
Norwalk, for the success of republican
principles and candidates, ever since the
memorable firstcampaign of our glorious
party in 1866. As I have never desired
or accepted omce at the hands; of my
fellow republican workers, but knowing
how true and zealous the great majority
'of them are, I wish to 1mm]: you 1' our
courteous, though severe,- ,but ustly
deserved rebuke, administered to ‘our
' court of bur-gasses, in the Gums: of last
week. Whatarethe‘fact's? Two lawyers
are resented as'cimlldates for borough
clerk. It is fair to presume that both are
equal, so far as competency and personal
fitness for~ the positing are concerned.
One is an earnest republican and worked
vigilantly and afadfiuly, as you and I
know, for the electiOn of this same
republican board. The‘cther is an earnest.
democrat and-did all in his power to
defeat this same board. Yet, when a
vote is taken to elect the clerk, all of
treat: republicans, with one honorable
exception, cast their ballots for our
political enemy and against the ' man to
whom they were in lar
1 Id: bted for their own ofleral existence!
No personal disparagement of Mr. Sey-
mour is intended in my criticisms, but
as a party man, I say this thing must be
stopped if we ever expect to have a party
organization again that does not excite
the disgust of every true and unselfish
r epublican and the derision and contempt
of our opponents, who have so' largely
profited by the treachery and folly of too
many of our “go-as-ycu-pleasc" sort of
republicans.
Mr. Editor, you have called a halt
none too soon. Consider for. a
moment what just .this sort of thing has
done for the republican party of the
nation, state and town? Had an‘even
six hundred of this same easy-going'sort
.of republicans (who here voted for a
democrat for borough clerk in preference
to a republican) voted for their party
candidate in New York, the foremost:
republican and grandest figure in
American politics today, would have
been our presidennelect. Had the same
kind of republicans in Connecticut voted
for Henry B. Harrison, as duty and party
fidelity dictated, our governor would
have been elected by the people and
Connecticut‘s electoral vote would have
seen cast for Blaine. Had these same
sort of “go-as-you-please” republicans in
our congressional district, adhered
faithfully to Lyman W. 009, a protec-
tionist would have represented as in the
Congress of the United States instead of
the man who voted in aid of the Morrison
tariff reform measure. Had these same
sort of rcpsblicans adhered with even
decent party fidelity to our Mr. Ccivlcs,
he would have been in Our senate to vote
for that able and upright man, 0. H.
Platt, for United States senator, as would
Mr. Gunning, had he too. not been
treacherously defeated. A United States
senator for do years might have been lost
‘to the republicans of the. nation and of
Connecticut. by this “tom-foolery" of
Norwalk republicans. It is no credit to
us, here in Norwalk, that republicans in
other parts of our state, were more
conscientious and faithful to their princi-
ples and duty. And last, after nearly
breaking our necks to elect a republl'mn
borough board and our losing our warden
bya single rate, and that one, as many
surmise,‘the possible result of the “heathen
Chinee” system of counting, to see the
men honored by the vote and confidences
of all true and faithful republicans,
leliberatcly prove traitors to their party
fealty, in even so trivial a. matter as
borough clerk, is most disheartening.
What would be thought of either the
common sense or propriety of our Episcopal
friends going over to the Baptists, or
Congregationalists to select their vestry-
men, or rice torso? Suppose our Metho-
dist brethren should step down to St.
Mary‘s and appoint their elders from the
Catholic communion, wouldwnot some
people declare them cranks and worse!'
In principle and effect, the conduct we
condemn in our political associates, is no
whit worse. It is high time for the repub—
licans of Norwalk to take a new depart-
ure. Place in office, after a fair nomina-
tion, only high minded men, incapable of
party trelchery. And for» the rank and
file of our voters, if a man is not a
republican from, convictions and from
principle, and seeks republican afiiliation
only to betray us, it is far better that he
should go at once. to his'own place
among the democrats and remain there.
We have just parted with one prominent
republican “for revenue only," but he
had the manliuess to go over to the
democracy openly and above board. He
did not remain in our party to betray us.
How many republican votes do you
suppose, Mr. Editor, our new borough
board would have received, if on election
day, it had been surmised that they were
secretly nursing a plot, in event of their
election, to give their little patronage to
the men who were working like beavers
‘to defeat them? How many of the weary
hours that Mr. Hurlbutt and you and I,
stood about {the polls and labored, that
not ar’B‘i. lc‘ republican voter should be

some of the bers of the Court of

but for the fact that

Ammonialn Baking Powder More Injurious to
Health than Alum.
DR. WITT'HAUS, ,
The Celebrated Chemist and Professor, on the Subject
r1
I have made careful qualitative analyses of CLEVELAND’S SUPERIOR
BAKING PQWDER‘ and of the Royal Baking Powder, and have also
determined the amount of available gas yielded by each. I find
that the substances which enter into the composition of the two
powders are the same, With one important exception: the Royal
contains Carbonate of Ammonia. whereas Cmvsmvo’s BAKING
POWDER does not.
In my opinion a baking powder containing Ammonia is much
“more liable to produce disturbances of digestion than one contain-
ing Alum, concerning.whosc deleterious qualities so much has been
said; particularly as it has been shown by direct experiment that
Carbonate of ' Ammonia, if present in a. baking powder, is not
expel/ed during baking. but remains in the bread.
I consider CLEVELAND'S SUPERIOR BAKING Pownnn as greatly
preferable to the Royal Baking Powder, because: '
1. It fsfrec from the Ammonia which contaminates the Royal;
2. It yields during baking a greater proportion of the only gas,
carbonic acid, which should be produced by a baking powder.
