Everybody Enjoyed 115- , ,
The season’s Opening at Brooksrde Park

,took place Friday evening under the
' auspices of the Danbury and Norwalk

' railroad company. 'A large number of

 

’/

invitations were issued and at 8 o’clock
~ a special train left Norwalk with seven

passenger. cars, loaded to their utmost
capacity, with invited guests, prominent
among whom were a large number of the
wealthiestpeople and the aristocracy of
the town. The run to Brookside was

' made without a stop, excepting atBranch-

ville, where the freight train was passed.

'A special train from Danbury with ten

cars loaded from end to end arrived at
the same time, bringing two brass bands.
0n the arrival of. the trains the newly-

. introduced electric lights were touched off

and the effect was beautiful. The multi-
tude in the park was estimated at 2,000
people. They strolled about the grounds,

‘ took seats in or promenaded the pavilion,

where the bands gave a concert; inspected
the working of the engine and apparatus
of the electric light; the young people
spooned and sparked as young people
always will; some crossed the track to
the hotel “to see a man about a dog,” and
all hands—young, old,and widowcrs—cn-
joyed themselves to the fullest capacity,
if their copious expressions of satisfaction
be any indication. President Lockwood
and Superintendent Crawford accom-

panied the party from Norwalk, andjcould.

not have been othcrwise..tlmn’ highly
gratified withyfthB‘Euccessful carrying out
of theproject' and the manifest approval
Jrof’the participants. Brooksidc Park. is

now Open for-the season, and with picnic

, parties and excursions, will undoubtedly

be kept in a gorgeous state pf gayety till
the swallows homeward fly. The GAZETTE
congratulates the management on the sig-
nal success of their auspicious opening.

Grand Army Figures.

At the national encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic, held in
Portland, Maine, it was showed that the
order had flourished and increased largely
within a year. March 81, 1884, thirty-six
departments reported 4,323 posts and
233,595 members. March 31,1885, thirty-
eight departments reported 5,026 posts
and 269,684 members. During eleven
months there have been added to the rolls
by muster, 66,729; by reinstatements and
transfers, 20,355; total increase, 87,084.
The losses by suspension during last year
number 84,292, which great number must
be due in great measure to the negligence
and inefficiency of post officers, who fail
to discharge the duties imposed upon

~ them. The report of the quartcrmaster-
general shows that on J unc 9 ‘there was
on hand a cash balance of $15,224.60, be—
ing a gain of $1,926.02.

A County Press Club.

At the Roton dinner yesterday the sug—
gestion in last week’s GAZETTE relative to
the formation of a county press club was
discussed at length. The sentiment of all
present was in favor of such a club and it
was thereupon decided to form it at once.
The following temporary oliicers were
elected: President, Rev. C. G Adams of
Southport; secretary, John H. Wade;
treasurer, James Golden. A committee
consisting of Editors Royce of Stamford,
Ellendorf of South Norwalk, and Edwards
of Greenwich, was appointed to draft a
constitution and by-laws, said committee
to report at Rockport in August, at which
time and place the county press are invit-

ed to another shore dinner.

The Peripatetic Pests.

Says the Stamford Herald :-—A Water.
,side man, near the Black-road crossing,
is so pcstcrcd with tramps who ring the
door bell and ask for “work” and victuals
—cspccially vietuals—at all hours of the
day and night, that he thinks seriously of
hiring a girl to answer “calls." He is
exceedingly anxious to know why the
tramp law is not enforced and why a
vagrant is so seldom brought before the
borough court, and that, too, when tramps

were never more numerous all about town ~

than they are this season—the highways
and byways fairly swarming with the
most villianous-looking crew that Europe
has yet sent to our shores.

“Gui-Chew.”

The young ladies of Vassar College are
good feeders. In the year ending June
1st, those giddy things ate 94,485 pounds
of fresh meat, 2,380 pounds of turkey,
3,395 pounds of fresh fish, 7 pounds of
mackerel, 30,000 clams, about 100,000
quarts of milk, 14,000 pounds of butter,
22,000 pounds of sugar, 15,000 bananas,
16,000 oranges, 579 boxes of caramels, 400
boxes of sardines, 692 pounds of confec-
tions, 1,000 dozen cars of corn, 8,000
lemons, 2,000 pounds of lard, 3,000 pounds
of coffee, 91 pounds of maple sugar, 40
bushels of onions, 12 gallons of horse rad-

ish, 71 bushels ofsalt, etc.

All About a. Penny.

The Bridgeport News tells of a small
boy who found an old copper cent in
Southport, the other day, which was
dated 1794 and was worth $1.75. It
makes a good item and reads well, but
the value of the cent is too large. There
were three distinct dies used in the penny
coinage of 1794. One was the same as
1793, and that coin is worth fifty cents.
Another has what is known to collectors
as a “marred field," and is worth seventy
cents. The third has a “scarred head,”
and is worth but forty cents.

Rumor has it that Ex-Mayor Golden is

post office and that the kindlv offices of
the Hon. W.,H.Barnum are to be,‘ or have

Bids for Repairing the Bear.
WASHINGTON, J unc 27.-Bids were open-
ed at the Treasury Department today for

'repairing the revenue steamer Bear at

New York. There were ten bids, ranging
from $17,700, by Robert Palmer & Sons.
ofNorwalk, Conn. to $48,200 by Neafie &
Levy, ofPhila. The contractwill probably
be awarded to Palmer & Sons. The Bear

Fishermen and Their Luck.

On Wednesday morning bright and
early—too early for good nature— a party
of five slick looking members of the “first
society” might have been seen by early
risers who were up in time to see them,
wending their way to the dock at South
Norwalk where they had a cat-rigged
steamboat engaged to transport them to
the fishing grounds three or four miles
down the sound where ‘ malicious rumor
said the black-fish and sea bass Were “so
thick you could haul 'cm out just as fast
as you could throw in your hook." The
sail down the sound was delightful; there
was a stiffbrceze blowing from the nor‘-
east by sou’-somcthing, that gave the
swift gliding cat-boat a “speed-my-bark"
velocity and whistled a wierd bamrolle
through the rigging. .

Arrived off Caukeena, Capt. “Thede”
Smith 'threw a chandelier overboard
with a bed cord attached, the curtain
was lowered and the good ship stood
still. Then the fish lines were brought
forth, the hooks were baited with clams,
and preparations were made for “pulling
in the black-fish and sea bass as fast as
the hooks could be dropped.” For some
reason these preparations were super-
fluous. A big sea bass that had taken
hold of the local scribe’s book was haul-
ed up to the surface, but when he got his
head out of water and looked into the
boat and saw Fred Lockwood in the
stern, he let go the hook and went back
into the briny deep. Then Wyman be;
gan to struggle with Hammond-«Ref: a
bewildering-series fif’s'c'ientific contortions,
’and cautious maneuvers he succeeded in
landing a magnificent—toad—fish or “swel-
lot” about five inches long, with a cream
colOred bellyfia big mouth, and a head
that reached so far back that he could use
his tail for eye winkers. ‘- All hands
crowded around to congratulate wyman
and- guess on; the weight of the beast, who
lay‘ there winking and blinking his bleary
eyes like a solemn faced man buying soda
water. . '

“Tickle him in the belly and see him
swell," said Capt. Smith; whereupon
Mosher turned the fish upon his back and
scratched his abdomen with a stick, when
he puffed up like a balloon and croaked
with glee or something. A shout of vic-
tory from the other side of the boat broke
up the tickling pastime, and the whole
attention was directed to where Gilmore,
who was attending diligently to his knit-
ting, had just pulled in a “sea robin” who
had swallowed the hook so completely
that the barb stuck in his tail. .

Then Lockwood beat the record by
pulling out two more of those yellow bel-
lied puff—balls at once. It Was a good
day for toad-fish. You could “pull them
out as fast as you could throw in your
book.” They came out two on a hook,
and swarmed near the surface by the
score, awaiting their turnsat the bait.

Capt Smith decided that he’d try anoth-
er spot where he knew there were more
black-fish than you could count, and off
sailed the party for the fishing grounds
off the rocky coast of Nauvoo. Here
they had several bites, and occasionally
the welkin would ring with shouts trium-
phant, as a fish flopped into the bottom of
the boat. Contrary to expectations, how-
ever, there was no difiiculty in counting
them. Here the local scribe, detecting
by the vibrations of his line that a big
black-fish, so thick he couldn’t count it,
was shaking hands with his bait, gave a
spasmodic twitch that jerked his straw
hatinto the water, whereit drifted rapidly
out to sea. Immediately the chandelier
was hauled in, the curtain rung up, the
fish lines were hurriedly coiled and the
boat started in pursuit of the hat. It was
chased about half a mile and was just
sinking for the third time when Lock-
wood, at the hazardous risk of getting his
cuff buttons wet, snatched it from a wat-
ery grave and restored it to the noble
brow of its sun-burning wearer, who for
an hour after-wood enjoyed the exquisite
sensation of having little rivulets of
sticky, salt water trickling down his neck
inside his shirt collar. Anchor was cast
again, somewhere near the “Cow and.
,,Calf” islands, -whore some more yellow
bellied swell-ups were captured, and an
occasional black-fish. ,

When the party sailed for home the
spoils were inventoricd. There were
half a bushel of toad-fish, a dozen black-
fish, six devil-fish or sea spiders (with one
of which the scribe nearly frightened
Moshcr into delirium tremcns by putting
'it down his neck,) one nasty, squirming
eel, one whatdo-you-calbit with a tail full
of prickles‘and wings like those of a bat,
one frost-fish, one straw hat and an empty
jug. The subsequent history of the toad-
fish is too painful to relate, barring the
fact that they were boxed up and present.
ed to an up-town business man who in-
judiciously gave copious thanks before he
looked at the gift, but observing the
alacrity with which the presenting party
got out of his office, took a peep at the
contents of the box and with an ungram-
matical ejaculation, hurled the box, toad-
fish and all after them, striking one of the
fishermen in the back and spilling toad-
fish all over him.

The party is to embark in the near fu-
ture, on another fishing voyage, and are
going where ”black-fish are so thick you
can pull them in," etc.

A Pie-ens Town.

Who would believe that Mr. James Ells
sells over one hundred and fifty pies per
day, or nearly one thousand per week with-
in the limits of the town of Norwalk? yet
such is the surprising fact! We cannot
account for it, except it be because of the
pious example Set by our brilliant cotcm-
porary Beach, now of the Ansonia Senti-
nel while a genial resident of Norwalk.
Ells says he sells ten mince pics to one of'
any other material. :He exercises the
greatest care in selecting his materials for
compounding his pies and buys, of course,
largely at wholesale, in New York. Mice,
bugs and reaches, which traditionally
served for the filling of the army sutlcrs’
pies, Ells rigidly excludes. A thousand
pics 3 week eaten by Norwalkersl _ Is it
any wonder we have so many “crusty”
old bachelors among us? '

. Tapping a. T111. and. What Game of It.

In a grocery on South street, Saturday,
there stood a woman alone. ' The reason
she was alone was because the grocer Was
down cellar filling an order. When the
grocer returned and went to his till he
saw that it had been robbed of a two
dollar bill. He suspected his customer
and charged her with the theft. She
stoutly denied the impeachment. Then‘
he said to her:

"Give me back that two dollar bill, and '
I will give you half'of it."

The offer was too tempting to be resisted
and she gave him.back the two dollars.
But he did not give her a dollar. And
she don't hardly want to go to law to
recover it.—'Danbury News.

Obituary.
Maggie Morrow, wife of George Colycr,
a former resident of Norwalk, died at her
home in New York on Fridav last in the
25th year of her age. She had been ill
but a short while and no serious results
were expected until a few hours before
her death when her malady took an alarm-
ing turn for the worse. She was a lovable
lady‘and though but the bride of a ‘year,
had rendered bright unto sunlight the lit L
tlc home now left desola‘tc. The funeral
occurred at the ‘hou'se, in 52d street, on
Sunday, the remains being interred in the
Cemetery of Evergreens, Brooklyn.

Beady for 11 Fight.

It is likely that the new city ordinance
prohibiting parades of the Salvation Army
which went into effect yesterday, will be
speedily tested. The leaders of the Army
have intimated that they shall continue to
parade and take the consequences. South
Norwalk, . therefore, has an ugly job on
her hands. ~

Our Contemporaries.

The Portchester Enterprise has changed
its day of publication. from Saturday to
'Wednesday. That gives the editor time
enough to get rested up, so he can attend
church.

A vacant boom in the matrimonial mar-
ket in Canaan has given editor Sam Beck-
ley of the News a chance to enjoy a sort
of second-hand honey-moon. He says
» that he and his family “have been living

, kindly remembered.”

William Parsons, who started the Hart-
ford Telegram, has been appointed a
special Indian agent by President Cleve-
land. Editor much big man. Whoop!

Our dearly beloved brethren of the
Standard, on Thursday, cut up the same
caper for‘ which they gave the Hartford
Telegram a scoring down. They repub-
lished an article from the GAza'rrr. and
gave the credit to the Sentinel.

When a printer asks his best girl to
give himaproof of her love, she looks
her form up in his m-bracc, and he puts
his imprint on it.—[That Jones, of the
Weetpm-ter.

If our belligerent brethren, James, of
Thomaston, and Bolics, of New Milford,
ever get together to “have it out,” we’d
like the privilege of holding somebody’s
coat.

Says the Ridgeficld Press man: “Mr.
Webster’s strawberries are turning out a
total failure this year. Too bad—We had
our mouth fixed for a bushel.” Chew
alum awhile, neighbor; even the water
melon crop threatens to be short.

 

A Scandal that Emigrated.

A young man-who has just returned
from the West brings an item that will be
of interest to the people of Norwalk. In
the course of his travels he had occasion
to call at a mercantile store kept by one
“Berkeley" in Kansas City. He at once de-
tected a resemblance in Berkeley to some-
body he had seen before, and on closer
scrutiny identified him as Chas. S. Hawes,
who will be remembered here as the in-
dividual whose “ways that were dark"
made the town too hot to hold him, and
moved him to suddenly and silently de-
part to “parts unknown" a year or so ago,
when his crookedness as a tobacco dealer
came to light, leaving a host of creditors
to mourn their own loss. Until now, his
whereabouts were unknown. Another
iuteresting revelation in the case, is the
fact that it has been discovered that a lady
who left Norwalk some months after

for California, is in Kansas City, living

with Hawes. This singular coincidence

goes far toward giving the color of truth

to the rumors of familiar relations between

the couple, that were current when both

were residents here. ,
Excellent Advice.

Judging from all acounts Norwalk is
having a hard time with the Salvation
Army. Bridgeport had the same experi-
ence as long as scenes of ruflianism were
enacted during the parades of the Army
or before the ordinance relative to the
parade was passed. South' Norwalk has
followed Bridgeport’s example and passed
a similar ordinance. But South Norwalk
must .do more and prevent her roughs
from annoying the army. If this is done
and sensible people turn their backs on a
religion pounded out of bass drums, tam-
bourines, and other instruments of the
kind, there will be no trouble. The army
in this city is fast losing its prestige, and
’tis well. Those who have been engaged
in' the work here at one time and another
have not shown by their, actions that they
were the proper persons to follow the ex-
ample of. The devil now has a stronger
hold of them than ever. In a majority of
cases they. are too lazy to work and not
honest enough to be trusted out of sight.
Let the army alone and its mockery, in
the name of religion, will soon be a thing
of the push—Bridgeport Port.

 

 

Young Bouton Pardoned.
In last week’s GAZB'ITI we stated that
Chief Lockwood would start for Sing Sing
to bring home Willis L. Bouton, who had
been pardoned by Governor Hill, of New
York. It seems that the district attorney,
who prosecuted the indictment, strongly
recommended the pardon. In his reasons
for granting the pardon Governor Hill.
says, in part :— "
Bouton, who is a member. of a respectable
family in Norwalk, Conn., came to New York
cit last fall. He was nineteen years of age.
Fa ing into bad company he was induced to

drink, 'and on the day ofelection,.ior the first.
time in his life became intoxicated, and was

.mado the tool of his associates, and by them
' was induced to commit the ofionce.

Recorder
Smyih, in consideration of Bouton’agood char-
acter, imposed the lowest penalty allowed by
law. With the commutation allowed by law
for good conduct, there remains less than three
months of his sentence. His mother is in' the
last stages of cancerous disease, and cannot, Ill
her doctor’s opinion, live longer than two
weeks. For several months she has been con-
stantly asking. for her ' son, and. ontroating
that she may see him before her death.
The doctor tel 3 me that he knows the iewdays
of life remaining for her would be rendered
comparatively happy by the presence of the
her only can. In t e belief that the object of
punishment has been obtained and that the
administration of justice will not suffer byhls
release, I have granted the pardon sought.

Young Bouton arrived home with Chief
Lockwood on Wednesday last. '

Grim Death With a Crank on It.

The Maxim gun, on exhibition at the.
Inventors' Exhibition in. London, attracts;
more attention than any other exhibit.
It weighs "only 65 pounds and-is mounted
upon alight tripod, which can be lower-
ed, raised, moved laterally with one hand
as easily as a garden hose, and which
pours out automatically 600 shots a min-
ute. One man simply sets the frightful
stream of bullets going, and then directs
it at will. This is a' gun, too, which can-
not jam, which cannot get overheated,
and which would ' go on firing just the
same if its operator was shot down at the
start. Each time the recoil energy, in-
stead of being wasted in kicking the gun
over is used to eject the empty cartridge,
cook the gun, place the next cartridge
and fire it. The cartridges are taken in
from the bottom in a chain. Each of
these chains has 333 cartridges packed in
in a' box which is set in a groove under
the gun. The operator has simply to
start the gun—amattcr of seven turns of
the hammer crank—and then, when
the chain of cartridges is nearly exhaust-
ed, fasten a new chain to the hook at the
end and push out the old box with a new,
full one,,.—‘The whole thing has been de-
velop'éd within the past two years. Mr.
”Maxim has also invented an electrical ap-
paratus for the working of very heavy
cannon, which enables a child to handle a
-gun heretofore requiring seven artilery-
men. Hc is now at work upon a compre-
hensive scheme of coast and naval
defense. One feature of it is a modifica-
tion of the Maxim gun which will destroy
torpedo boats. Another is an invention
by which a cannon of the largest size can
be worked on a lifting platform by elec-
trinity. For example, 0 g e shore at
Sandy Hook a 100 ton gun could be sunk
below the earth level and masked from
view; at a signal it could be raised above
the ground, trained, fired and lowered
again, all in the twinkle of an eye.

Sadly Significant.

It is doubtful whether in New England
we shall see again so large a representation
of the remnant of the Union army as is in
Portland this week. It is a'spectaclc that
we may well wish to see and remember.
Especially is it a noble and stirring sight
for the young, inspiring them with patri-
otic emotions. To them the war is a tra-
dition and a romance. It is brought near-
er to their apprehension as a reality and a
service beholding the men who stood in
serricd ranks when death flew in the air
and for their sake dared all things and
won the triumph—Boston Journal.

To The rustic l—a cans.

have recently learned from creditable au-
thority that statements are bcine.r industri-
oualy circulated, with the evident intent of in-
juring my business, to the effect that in my use
of the new process of embalming the dead, an
exposure of the remains is usual and rendered
necessary for its effectual application. Noth-
ing can be further from the ruth. I have used
the system, which is now adopted by all the
leading and best undertakers of this country,
for nearly two years, durin which time I have
not used a single ound 0 ice for preserving
the bodies oft e end. And I am the only un-
dertaker who has not used it. But in pain-
stance has it been necessary to expose any
more of the person of the corpse than is seen
after it is laid out in the casket for public view
and burial service. The process of administer-
ing it is.“ delicate as the injection of a by 0-

,dermie needle in the wrist or hand tool ay

sin in the living subject. I confidently ap Gal

0 every friend of the more than a bun red
subjects I have used the process upon and who »
have witnessed its administration, to confirm'
my statement in this respect, and to aid in re-
futing the injurious. cruel and heartless false-
hood 10 which I have been forced to refer.
