' Representative Hoyt, of New Canaan,
has introduced a bill prohibiting the sale.
of clgarettesto boys under 18 years of
age, under penalty of fine and ‘imprison- -’
ment. One member of the temperance
committee, to whom it was referred, is a
doctor, who may be able from a profes.
sional standpoint, to enlighten his fellow
committeemen as to the disastrous efiects
of cigarette smoking on the system, and ,
thus enable them to report intelligently.
The existing and growing prejudice
against the cigarette is based upon the be-
lief that it is more mischievous in its ef—
fects than either cigar or pipe smoking, or
tobacco chewing. Mr. Hoyt’s -bill is a,
timely one and ought to pass.
The Sturges vs. Smith case was argued
yesterday before Judge Hall in the Court

fied plaintiff to discontinue the same and
iwithdraw the advertisement of the prOp—
erty from his paper, the Renl Estate Jour-
nal, and subsequently, the transfer. of the
property was made without- plaintiff’s
knowledge. Mr. Sturges case is: Being,
as he afieg'cs, able to prove that the pur-
chaser was secured-through him as agent,
and that he managed every detail of the
sale with the exception of the actual trans-
fer, he is eutitledto theusual commission,

Burslary in New Canaan.

PS- .
night, entrance being made through a
front ‘window. The thieves ransacked
the house pretty thoroughly and carried
off anumber of articles _of clothing, in-
cluding valuable sealskin furs belonging
to Mrs. Middlebrook. From Middle-
brook’s they visited Mr. Chas. Benedict’s
place. Here they entered by boring a
hole through a window sash, and unlock-
ing and raising the window. They had
hardly got to work when they were heard
by Mr. George Lockwood, who was up
stairs in bed. He hastily arose and, seiz-
ing a revolver, descended to the floor be-
low. There he saw the burglars and fired.
In the darkness he missed his aim and the
thieves hastily decampcd, but not before
two more shots from Mr. Lockwood's re-
volver whistled uncomfortably near their
heads. . They left a pile of booty on the
floor in the room, which, on exam-

The Cape, Charles Route to! 0111 Point
Comfort.
-—:Under the new winter schedule of the
New York. Philadelphia and Norfolk rail-
road, which has just gone into effect, the
time of the trains has been so changed
and quickened as to make this the most
desirable as well as the speediest mode of
reaching the winter resort of Old Point.
Comfort, Norfolk, and the region there-
about. The train service of the road em-
braces two fast express trains daily, one
leavin New York in the morning, the
other in the evening, both making the run
from New York to Old Point in about ten
hours. The morning train leaves New
York about 8.00 o’clock on week ._ da 3, ‘
Philadelphia 10.17, arriving at Old ’Po at
0.15 p. m. ; the eveningtrain leaves New
York at 8.00 o'clock every day, Philadel.
phia 11.10. arriving at Old Point 7.80
a. m. The equipment of both trains is u
to the highest standard of the Pennsy ~
vania railroad. In addition to the ordin-
ary passenger coaches they carry 'parlor
andslceping cars. The sleepers are trans-
ferred from Ca Charles across Chesa-
peke Bay to Ol Point and Norfolk by a
steam ferry, thus avoiding the necessity
of any change of cars. '
To travelers from New England and the
east the time of departure from New York
ing train connects from all the trains ar-
riving in New York during the day, while
themornin express is adircct connection
for those 0 the early morning. The cast-
bound connections'are equal 3 as good, as
the morning train from Old oint makes
connection. at Philadelphia with the
throu h'train for. Boston. The evening
,train or Old Point connects with morning
trains out of New York for. the east. The

-, A mass meeting‘of the tobacco growers
and others of New Milford and adjoining
towns is called to be held. in New Milford
next Saturday, the object being to “raise
funds necessary to get a higher duty‘placcd
on Sumatra tobacco." Strenuous efforts
are to be’made by tobacco growers all over
the country to induce Congress to increase
the tariff on Sumatra, for according to
the call " if its. importation increases at
the rate it has been doing the last two
years, tobacco growing in this country
will cease." ’ '

There are still merry legends among.
the English whalers of the time when
the Danish post of Godhavn, or Lievev
ly, on Disco Island, was the rendezvous
of the fleet. It is so no longer. Many
a modern whaler has never landed
at this dreary outpost of civilization-
for there are nowadays no whales to
catch in or about the “whaleflsh
islan '9 The harpoons and lances are
rusting in the Colonibestyrer's “loft.'
and the boiling-house is kept busy by
the humble tributes of belugas, nar-
whals, seals, bottlenoses, and an occa-
sional “finner."— It is, indeed, almost
as great an event for a whale to be kill
ed off the shores of Danish Greenland
as for a walrus tor polar 'bear to fall
within the same well-hunted area,
though if one might judge from the
local coloring in the boys' books which
appear in so luxurious a crop at this
season, the voyagerhas to steer warily
lest he should run over a herd .of the
one or get boarded by a pack of the
other. The Dundee men halt no longer
on “the east side," as they term the
western coast of Danish Greenland,
than they can help. All sail or all
steam, is made for Bafiiu’s Bay, in
order to make the “middle passage,"
or get through Melville Bay, for the
modern battling ground at the entrance
to Eclipse Sound on the other shore of
Davis Strait. Even there the prospect
of a cargo is getting more and more
fleeting. Nor, as the season advances,
is the outlook at "Clyde River " and
the “Rock nosing " 011‘ Cape Hooper
and Cumberland Sound much more
encouraging. The adventurers who
have assayed the half explored western
inlets do not seem to have had much
better success. If the whales have re-
treated thither they have managed to
put many audio of floe between them
and the harpoon. The chances, how-
ever, are that the cetacean is becoming
when and unless left to itself fora
few seasons will soon be on the verge of
extinction.
IRON AS A PRECIOUS METAL.
Iron and copper were the only metals
known to the natives before the arrival
of the Europeans, and they were both
called in the Herero language by the
same name. The m'vilized Hereros now
use foreign words for copper, silver and
geld, while lead has received its name
from the bullets into which itis cast. '
The pastoral tribes of the Hereros and
Ovambandierus have but few smiths
of their own, but are served by itinerant
smiths from other. tribes, who wander
around, working in small companies,
among the chiefs, till they have earned
enough cattle to justify them in return-
ing to their homes.‘ Sometimes they
are political refugees, who have excited
the anger or jealousy of their chiefs in
Ovamboland, and are compelled to turn
their backs upon their homes till a
change of dynasty takes place. These
Ovambo smiths brought iron from their
native country, where the‘art of extract-
ing that metal and copper from the ores
is understood, and rich ores are found.
Iron could formerly be got in Own-
boland only at the cost of great labor,
and the smith had then to carry
his store on his back some fifteen or
twenty days’ journey. The metal,
therefore. commanded a very high price.
As late as about 1840 a simple bracelet
,of iron wire was an adequate guest’s
present, and a large fat wether could
easily be bought with a span of the old
hoop-iron with which trunks were
bound. The natives were greatly
astonished at seeing the costly metals
wasted by the Europeans in boot nails.
Iron had thus the value ofaprecious
metal, and, rusting and changing but
little in the dry climate, was wern in
ornaments by the Hereros, while other
tribes preferred copper and brass. The
native smiths now use European iron,
and seek out good steel, such as is found
in files and bayonets. But iron forged
in the old-fashioned way into ornaments
has still considerable value.
