NORWALK GAZETTE.
Tuesday, Nov. 1 7 , 1885.
The Assistant Clerkship-
_ The question of who shall be assistant
clerk of the next house of representatives
is already being agitated, and there Will,
in 'all probability, be as fierce a fight made
prior to the appointment as was the case
last year. Mr. Frank.L. Rodgers, of
Fairfield, is again a candidate from the
Fourth'district, and this year seems to
have materially strengthened his forces.
He ran a close race last year, and was but
grew votes behind the successful candi-
date, Mr. Brainard‘of Haddam.
Since 1854 the republicans have had
control of the General Assembly 28 times.
During that period the Fourth district has
furnished the assistant clerk but four
dimes. The remaining terms have been
,filled from the First, Second and Third
congressional districts in the following
propOrtion :——First,~7 ; second, 8, and third,
‘9. 'It-will thus be' seen that the Fourth
‘ district, comprising the important counties
r
of Fairfield and Litchfield, has had the.
filling of the assistant clerkship but half
— as many times as the average of the other
Tuesday of cac
districts. .
Mr. Rodgers is a young man of marked
ability, and represented the town of Fair-
field .in the legislature of 1883. He is
thoroughly conversant with the duties of
the position, and would, without doubt,
perform them to the satisfaction of all
concerned. He is backed by such men as
' Hon. Samuel Fessenden, Lynde Harrison,
ex Speaker Charles H. Pine.!E. L. Scofield,
P. C. Lounsbury, J. W. Knowlton, Amos
S. Treat, Alfred B. Beers, George R.
Cowles and E. J. Hill.
Mr. Rodgers is entitled to the position
under the locality plea. And he is en-
titled to it upon his merits.

An Eloquent Preacher.
The Rev. Dr. C. H. Everest, of Thomp—
son, Dakota, preaches at the Clinton street
Congregational church next Sunday, and
considerable interest is felt in his coming,
as he has been spoken of as one of the
most eloquent pulpit ', orators of the west.
- At the dedication of a new church edifice
in Grand Forks, Dakota, Dr. Everest
preached from the text: “This is none
other than the House of God, and this is
the te of Heaven.” Of the discourse a
loca paper sa s: “The objective pointof
all his beautiful illustrations and chorcc
_ rhetoric was that men must be persuaded
that theywill find in the church now dedi-
cated that joy and consolation which they
cannot find elsewhere. Itabounds in pas-
sages of rare eloquence, flights of .rapt‘ur-
ous fancy, and a powerful presentation of
the doctrine in words, tone and manner.
It is far short of the just meed of praise
to say that the sermon was res lendent
with beauties of thought and rep etc With
elegance of diction.”
This extract from the Newark (N. J .,)
Daily Advertiser of Nov. 10th, will give
pleasure to Mr. Everest’s many admirers
and friends in Norwa k and vicinity, and
advises them of his whereabouts. And
this suggests that Nor-walk was favored 011
Thursday by the presence of three former
pastors of the FirstCongregational church,
viz": Rev. Dr. Joseph Anderson, now .of
Waterbury, Rev. Dr. T. S, Childs, now of
Washington, D. 0., who has recently been
supplying Rev. Dr. Sunderland‘s pulpit,
and so preaches to the President, and Rev.
Dr. J. A. Hamilton, now of Boston, Sec
rotary of the Congregational' College and
Education Society. ,His address before
the conference at Danbury on Wednesday
ilight is spoken of very highly.

IT scmvrs A DEAL.
The New Haven Register says that the
. Norwalk GAZETTE out of deference to the
wishes of State Attorney Fessenden has
offered to turn over Fairfield county to the
support of Major Tibbets iii the latter’s
candidacy for speakership of the incoming
legislature. The alleged reward promise
for this support is the help of Tibbets and
his friends towards securing l’. C. Louns-
bury’s nomination for governor next year.
The Register intimates, however, that the
deal which it claims to have discovered
may displease the thick-and-thin friends
of the Parallel road project, inasmuch as
the choice of the speaker has an import-
ant bearing on the composition of the
railroad committee.—Bridgeport News.
And a much stranger reason than all is
the New Haven railroad want Mr. Tibbets
elected speaker.——Eds. Greenwich Graphic.
And as Colonel Hoyt, like about all the
smart and brilliant lawyers of the state, is
sometimes, we believe, attorney for the
New Haven railroad, why should not
that corporation prefer our friend the
colonel? But seriously it is as unjust as'
it is far fetched to endeavor to lug any
railroad or future gubernatorial manipu-
lations into what shOuld be a friendly
rivalry for the speakership. No such in-
terferenceE, manipulations or suggestions
have ever been made in our belief, and
certainly not to our knowledge.

“Right Shoulder Shift.”
Rev. Dr. Anderson, won the sympathies
of his hearers, as with straight face he
yielded to the request to advertise from his
pulpit Sunday, the “grand female military
’drill” and‘ “unique vocal concert” to be
given by our colored people at Loekwood’s-
Hall to-morrow evening. It recalls a some-
what similar incident in the pastoral expe-
rieuces here of the late Rev. William B.
Weed of blessed memory. Rushing into
the GAZETTE office early one Monday
morning he threw down a slip of paper
whereon was written in a most villainous
hand a dead head adv. of some sort of a
benevolent show to be given during the
week at our old and picturesque town
house. “Here," said the good man, “I
want you to advertise this. There are
some things even in the interests of a good
cause, that are a little too tough for me to
read from the pulpit.”
W-‘h-«ow—w
Cheney, the linguist of the Port Jefferson News
Letter, is not only able to whistle Yankee Doodle
in seven different languages, but he also writes
poetry in an easy flowing liquid stream—GAZETTE.
Our liquid rhymes, John Byington, are simply
rhymes upon the run;with feet well measured it is
true, so they mayn’t limp ’tween inc and you ; but
when we strike our trembling lyre, we turn would
hit Jolln Rodemeyer, and knock his dactyls all
awry—his measured troches into “pi,” and mash
him till his anapest. in smoother language shall be
dressed, or till he’d neither ride Nor-walk, nor-taf-
fy give us in his talk.——.\'ews Letter.
Thin is the “liquid” of your sonnet; it
has a slugger’s trade-mark on it. Your
“easy bowing streanr” of blustei' could be
fanned out with a feather duster. We
ne’er thought Cheney quite so rude, as to
show such ingratitude, and rage with pu-
gilistic vim, after we’ve honey-fugled him.

Borough Meeting.
The special borough meeting, called last
Friday. voted to petition the next Legisla-
ture for the privilege of replacing our $75,-
000 of maturing water bonds, at a lower
rate of interest. When the act is passed
would it not be wise for some friend of
the borough to see that a provision is in.
sorted that the new bonds shall be placed
by the WaterCommissioners? In this way
all commissions will be saved, and $110
need not be paid to a borough official as
' was done in the last deal.

Can’t it be Fixed P
The GAZETTE some weeks since called
attention to the swampy condition of the
ground near the watering tank by the 2d
M. E. church. Nothing has been done to
remedy the evil as yet. Is it possible that
the authorities care nothing for the health
and comfort of those compelled to pass
the nuisance on the way to and from their
homes? ,

Editor Belles, of the New Milford

in his columns of a continued lstory,
“Faithful Hearts,” written‘by himself. It
is a love story, told in just such a prosaic
way as might be expected from an incor-
rigible bachelor like Bolles. It lacks that
gurgling, poetic, ethereal utterness of
soulful lollypop that makes the reader
think he’s getting the worth of his money.
There is a distressing absence of the
requisite gush and tafiy and front teeth
collisions and popsy-wopsy slobber that
go to makeup the orthodox love story
that “takes." But it takes a love maker
to make a love writer, and on this prin-
ciple Bolles is excusable. His story, how-
ever, undoubtedly hits the bullseye he
aims at, inasmuch as it demonstrates
theoretically the point he labors to make
in his evolution doctrine. Bolles is a cori-
vert to the theory of evolution, and “will
not,down” until he succeeds in tracing his
ancestry back to a primeval zoological
garden.

A. Voice from‘Litchfleld County.
EDITOR GAZETTE:—Will you, in the in-
terest of your Litcllfield county readers,
give space to a brief outline of the
points urged by his friends iii favor of the
appointment of Samuel A. Eddy, of
~Canaan, to the assistant clerkship of the
House of Representatives: First, Litch-
field county has never had a republican
clerk or assistant in either the house or
‘the senate, while all the other coul.tics
have been represented in the appointment
repeatedly. Second, Mr. Eddy is a zealous
young republican worker in a hopelessly
democratic senatorial district,»madc so by
gerrymaudcrand bribery, and where an
occasional - favor in appointment would
encourage and stimulate the minority
party to renewed efforts iii the work of
cutting down the democratic majority, in
which they are making noble progress.
Third, Mr. Eddy’s personal fitness, admir-
able qualifications and the high character
of the friends who urge his apppointmcut,
among whom are ex-Congressruan Fred-
erick Miles, Agricultural Board Secretary
T. S. Gold, and all the prominent republi-
cans of the county. REP-ELECT-

Poor But Proud.
A forlorn looking tramp! ragged dirty
and unkempt, knocked at the back door of
one of our borough residences last week,
and asked for work. “I have had no food
to-day and want to earn enough to buy my
dinner,” said he, with an earnestness well-
nigli convincing. The gentleman of the
house told him he might rake up the leaves
in the yard if he wished, and he would be
paid well for his time. “How much will
you give ?” asked the tramp.” “How much
do you want?” said the gentleman. Tile
.tramp after trying hard for a dollar finally
agreed to take '75 cents and a meal. As
the work could be done iii less than two
hours the gentleman refused to pay over
fifty cents, and so told the knight of the
turnpike. Thcreupon his trampsliip with
a great show of indignation exclaimed:
“What! DO that work for fifty cents? You
don’t catch me working no two hours for
that money.” And off he went with the
air of a deeply injured man.

The Haymakers Win.
The Advocate, in its report oi the recent
game of polo in Stamford between the
borne team and the N orwalk ‘ ‘IIaymakers,”
says :- “The audience was highly pleased
with the closeness of the game, as with
the good natured andgentlemanly bearings
of the players.” It is cvidcntthat our Hay-
makei's start off with a good determina-
tion—to hold themselves above the failings
that too often prevail in amateiir clubs,
such as disputing the referee's decisions,
charging favoritism, playing a “sluggiii g”
game, and kicking at every real or imagi-
nary provocation. These things invari-
ably disgust an audience, belittle the game
and foster ill feeling, and thc Haymakers,
in steering clear. of them, take a wise
course. I
The second game with the Stamford boys
was played in the Sorwalk rink Wednes‘
day night and was witnessed by a large at'
tendanee of spectators. The game' was
well played and the errors were few.
The score stood 10 to 2 in favor of the
Haymakers.

Politics Locally.
on! THAT SWEET BY AND hr.
The democrats downinthe southwestern
part of the state, especially in Norwalk
are, in the exuberance of joy over the
“clean sweep” in that city and are confi-
dent that it means that “Bank Commis-
SiOllCl‘ James W. Hyatt is to be the ‘next
gover'nOi',Senat0r Asa Smith the nextvcon-
gressman‘fromthe Fourth district,” and
William H. Barnum for next United States
senator. All of which will be subject to
revision, by and by.——Harlford Post.
ALAS ! Too Thur.
The Twelfth was easily the banner rc—
publican district in the late election, every
town in it except little Wilton sending all
republican representatives. On the other
hand, by way of acuriously sharp contrast
the neighboring district—the 13th—sends
a solid democratic representation,- though
its chief town—Norwalk—generallv is good
for 150 or 200 republican majority.—

pressed with the thought that skill as well as‘
capital is necessary to successfully conduct
that line of business. In those displays were
seen materials, the bare cost of which would I
be a fortune to a good many. At the same .
time there were goods so reasonable in tree
that even metropolitan dealers, could they lave
taken a look, would have been amazed to learn
of the possibilities which a Bridge or't house
can offer. The very cream of foreign and do-
mestic silks, many of the former made to the
order of and imported by this firm, all the
novelties as well as the snbstantials in ladros’

the house which is alive, which keepeup to
the times, the varied and animated pictures
which appear and vanish giving place to others
are as dissolving views which can be surveyed,
but none can guess how they come or go. The
rule which this house has maintained through
a series of years of' never carrying the goods or
one season over to its successor has shown the
shopping public the advantage lobe gained by
choosing from lines of goods which are entire-
ly new with the— return of each seas. n. The
ladies who do the shopping, who want the new
goods and carry the money to pay for them.
appreciate these conditions. The first leaf of
autumn had scarcely fallen when the shelves
of this company’s store began to put on thicker
and more sombre attire, and now, anticipating
stern winter, ample preparation hasbecii made
for it. Entering the store the cash-mar he-
holds not even a suggestion that such a thing
as the summer of 1885 existed, but the means
of protection against the cold waves of he
opposite are numerous and yer-y apparent.
By way of emphasizrng the assertion made _at
the outset that there is science in trade, anili-
speetion of what is now offered, and howit has
been ossible to produce 'an aggregation of
such esirabilities, is in order. t can. be ex-
lained in a few words. It is (loneby watch-
ing the markets, and buying when manufac-
turers need money and must sell at a sacrifice
to ' et. Thus, the old sentiment, “ Etern l
vigi ance is the price of liberty” may apply. to
the dry goods trade, as this market watching
releases the customer from the thraldom or
high prices. This simple-rule of‘ watching for
and improving opportunities practiced continu-
ally b this house sincc its advent here. has
come for it reputation and - placed it as a
leader in this ‘art of New England. The high
lane attaine- has in part been reached by a
audable desire to please the dress Cl’lliCS—n
numerous class unjustly abused, but wrthout
whom style would lose its charm. The dry
goods house and the the daily paper are alike.
Unless something new is offered every day few
will seek and none will buy. Looking along
the counters the customer finds not only the
cardinal colors in dress goods, but all the deli-
cate shades of color in cashmeres. cordurettcs,
diagonals. serges and bison cloths. Of rough
dress goods such as homespun and boncle
cloths, Bailnookburils, and Cheviot cloths,
hair lilies, canvass cloths, worsted
serges with raised figures, and combination
suits and robes, there is :1 display which can
be understood and comprehended only by in.
spection. The silk department is not only full
but actually overflowing. Not a waste nook or
crevice. The customer finds it supplied with
all the idles? productions of the old as well as
the new wor d. Conspicuouslv soon are the
satin faced materials, such as salin rhadamcs,
satin merveilieaux, satin duchcsse, and mag-
nificent black silks made for and imported by
this house, and displaying its name woven in
the. texture. All the lines of colored silks are
offered. That home manufacturers are more
than holding their own can be seen ill the
Jersey silks, the saccarappa, and the celebrated
Stearns silks, known in trade 'as “the silks of
ye olden time.” One could pleasantly spend
an afternoon tracing the cxccllencies ol'biaek
and colored brocade velvets, plain black and
colored velvets, wide velvcts for cloaks, velvets
two toned and striped, dark plushos, evening
shades of plushes, silk and seal plushes, frieze
cloths and frosted beavers for dress aiid cloak
trimmings, which are now offered.
The display of Cashmeres is in extent and
beauty bewildering. There is shown every
variety known to to the market, and hundreds
of pieces piled up,caeh telling what it is by the
color ofthe wrapper, suggests the ability of
the house to supply demands however great.
In feather and fur materials for trimmiuzs
there are shown varieties which in extent indi-
»°cate the importance of that branch of business :
Lynx, beaver, otter, Russian ham, and all the
fur trimmings, most in rise. In the cloak de-
partment to which more attention is paid this
year by the housethaii at any previous time
in its history can be soon goods piled higher-
than the heads of the civil-ks.
these may be detected seal cloaksand dolmans,
fur lined circulars and for trimmed cloaks.
Here and there are observed the Princess and
Victoria cloaks, which are in seal only, the
new shaped sacquc in bolh seal and plush, the
Beatrice, abeautiful shaped garment also in
seal and plush, and a new shaped garment
termed the Visits, in seal and plush, trimmed
with chenille fringe, feather trilliuiiug or beaver
drops. In a. profusion ol'styles arc seal, beaver
and fancy furs in the shape of Peleriiles and
niufl‘s. The firm pay particular attention to
seal cloaks and all that appertains to them and
are receiving orders from all parts of‘ihe state
by mail. Every new shape iu imported wraps,
walking jackets, Newmarkcts, dolmaiis and
sacques is in the display. By inquiry it is
learned that their seal plush sacque earned
for them the highest premium at the late fairs.
The visitor is shown suites of rooms adjoining
the cloak departments, where full and under
garments for ladies and children can be de-
signed, cut, fitted and finished. i’heso rooms
are managed by ladies who have long been
associated with the house, and they are assist—
ed bv ladies whose art and experience in cloak
making can be attested by hundreds of patrons.
Close by is a. department displaying those
charming beaver, bouclc, camels hair stockinet
and tufted eloakiiigs. Strolling along, the dis-
C(l‘0l‘\' is made that the hosiery department
has been enlarged, and that besides the domes-
tic all the latest novelliosof English, German
and French manufacture are offered. Merino
underwear appear-.5 literallv in loads represent-
ing all thepopular makes and especially the
New Britain Knitting company, Norfolk, .‘\‘0\\'
Brunwick, Cartwright and Warner’s. In cor-
sets twenty two distinct shapes are constantlv
kept on hand. iii particular the Bridal, Sylvia,
and Gilt Edge. Tire muslin underwear is
varied and too extensive for details. In the
glove section on the Cannon street side of the
store are kid gloves of kilown‘foreign manufacJ
lure in lengths of from three to eight buttons,
also Mourquetaire kids of a dozen or more
different makes. Near by are the laeovcilings,
ornaments and ribbons, all the popular laces,
beaded fronts, colored passementeries, trim-
ming jets and velvet- ribbons.
Thc display of flannels, blankets, and coin-
forfables and domestic goods is innumerable.
In the muslins are all white goods the house
has succeeded in bringing together a variety
never befOrc attained. A glance down stairs
does not complete the picture—it simply gives
new outlines of the extent of the character of
the backing in stock, the foundation, so to
speak, upon which the store stands, and from
which at a moment's notice articles exhausted
by sales above stairs can be replaced, and thus
keep the wheels of trade moving. Written
description given but a faint notion of the vast-
ness ofthis part of the; house which is rarely
seen. Economical housewives belioldiug and
examining would assuredly befiiiitercstcd anew.

This Heater is l’rovidecl with an Anti-Clinker Grate,
Which (an be cleaned by inserting the poker through the lift door.
It has all ash damper which prevents escape of dust, when shaking
the grate. . Its d raft dampers are regulated automatically, by the
pressure of slcam in the boiler, obviating all danger of over heating,
hence the furnace requires‘little personal attention, except in supply-
ing the fuel arid removing the ashes. . ,
t is provided with a water pan, ~for supplying the heated air with
the necessary moisture. The boiler is combined with the furnace ’in
such a manner as to take up no extra room, and while suspended over
the fire pot, yet does not impair the draft of the furnace. The product
of combustion. after passing both through and around the boiler. enters
the radiator surrounding the dome, and after yielding most of its heat
to the radiator, escapes through the exit fluc.‘ The boiler is provided
with stealil and water gauges, and safety valves. It consumes only
about one pail of water per week. The whole apparatus is constructed
willl :.2 view to simplicity, facility ot'ci'cction,_and o )eratiou, has the
{/7‘1710 at and most extensive llcalmg capacity at the least espouse and is
