The old familiar scene was enacted in
Justice Bliss's office again on Friday
morning—Kate Haslett was tried for
drunkenness and of course found guilty.
Husband and wife were both arrested on
Thursday, and Johnwas tried and fined $2
and costs, $11.16, but Kate was too drunk
to be tried, and her case was adjourned
to Friday morning when she was sen-
tenced to sixty days, 87 fine and costs.
Kate is a “tough” character, and makes a
beast that she will get drunk when she
pleases-and it pleases her to be in that
condition most of the time. For the safe-
ty of her famity and neighbors she ought,
if possible, to be put where she cannot
obtain liquor.-—-New Canaan Hummer.
In the August Century’s War series.
“The Battle of Fredericsburg" gives scope
for varied and stirring illustration. Gen-
eral James Longstreet contributes the title
paper and the Confederate view. The
Union assaults upon the memorable stone
wall are described .by General Darius N.
, Couch, who was virtually in command on
the field of “Sumner's ‘Grand Right Divi-
sion'"; General William F. Smith writes
anecdotally of the part taken by “Frank-
lin's “Right Grand Division,’ " and his or-
ticle contains several foot notes by Gener-
al W. B. Franklin. General Rush C.
Hawkins brings new facts to explain
‘ ‘Why Burnside did not renew the attac ,"
and Major J. Horace Lacy, then the own-
erof'thc famous mansion known . as the
“Lacy House," contributes several anec-
dotes of the Confederate commander,
under the title of “Lee at Fredericks-
burg." There are five full-page pictures
among the thirty-four war illustrations of
the number.
Detective Frank Taylor, of Bridgeport,
has nearly perfected his daylight bottling
invention. The possibilities of this inven-
tion are partially enumerated by the
Nauru—“All day long the great glass
dome catches daylight and forces it into
an immense iron tank, from- which _it is
distributed like gas, steam and water, to
any part of the structure, even far down
into the darkness of the sub-cellar and the
gloomy depths of.the bank vault. The
possibilities of this invention are so many
that it would take a volume to enumerate
them. Daylight can be“ sent anywhere
about the building in sufi‘lcient quantities
to last all through business hours and
even be made to lengthen out the short
days of winter. When darkness comes
on the occupant of a room turns a crank,
and in rushes the daylight to drive away
the gloom. The patentees are now at
work upon an apparatus by which it is
hoped to store enough daylight in a build-
ing to last all ,night. After that. by an
immense tank, they seek to light up the
city streets. Then-farewell kerosene, gas
and electricity. It is suggested that the
patentecs might have a large central ofilcc
in each town where poor people could
buy daylight by the growlerfull."

—W. B. Hall &. Co., the dry goods men,
of Bridgeport, commence, this week,
their great annual clearing sale of summer
silks. This is undoubtedly the largest
silk store in the New England states out-
side of Boston, and it has a world-wide
reputation for bargains in silks. They
also, in connection with their ‘silk sale,
offer their entire stock at great reductions
through the month of August. We copy
from the Bridgeport Standard, of July 27:
The annual closing out sale of summer
fabrics, silks, short ends of the various
kinds of dress goods, cottage draperies,
achting, mountain and seaside suits by
Iessrs. W. B. Hall & Co. commences to-
morrow morning at 9 o'clock, and every
economist, every lover of bargains, every
hotel keeper, every thrifty “housekeeper,
every good wife who wishes to extend the
[usefulness of the public purse, should
visit this great annual sale. Probably no
one thing has done more to intensif the
interest which the whole people ta e in
the success of this'great family dry goods
house than the semiannual closing out
sales which were instituted by them eight
years ago. In no instance do they carry
goods from one season to another if rice
will sell them. Managers of public 1nsti«
tutions should visit the great sale of W. B.
Hall & Co. . . -

Suicide. _ .
Annie M. Meeker, wife of Alva Meeker,
aged 40, committed suicide last Thursday
morning at her residence in the “toll gate
house," by hanging herself in the garret
with a halter rope suspended from abeam.
She had become despondent through a
delusion that a recent critical surgical
operation would result fatally, notwith-
standing thc‘ physicians who performed
the operation pronounced it in every way *
successful. A morbid dread of being sent
to an asylum, as was suggested by her
family, in view of her increasing hypo-
chondria, is thought to have inspired her
rash deed. She had previously made two
attempts at suicide, but was unsuccessful
in both.

Reflections on the "Life and Death oflifr.
Wm. 8. Lockwood.
It is not often in a life time one meets
with such a noble heart‘ and life so‘fully,
consecrated to our Heavenly Father’s Willij
and service. A strong pillar Of the church 1
beloved so well; now there is a broken
, column, and, though its power‘and strength
has departed, its influence will abide, con-
tinually going up as sweet incense, bid-
ding others to emulate “ the example.
Truly, the flowers that bedecked the casket
were fitting emblems ;, the cross and
anchor he had clung to, developing such
a beautiful Christian faith that'permeated
his life and mingled in his conversation
as a part of his nature, and amid the
psalms we seem to hear the echo of those
joyful liosannas. While the true spirit of
philanthropy was manifest in his life,
dispensing so liberally, he always evinced
a spirit of humility; desiring no praise,
more frequently withholding the donor’s
name.
In earlier life he was an active, prosper-
ous business man of sound judgment and
strong will power, and be occupied high
positions of trust and honor. This town
will feel his loss keenly. His hand was
ever ready to aid in all foreign or home
enterprises that came within the scope of
his sense of right and justice. True
friendship was fully exhibited in the daily
intercourse of friend with friend; genial
and sympathetic, strewing all along life’s
pathway'fiowers of human kindness and
love, whose fragrance reaches beyond the
pearly gates.
Great heart thy work is done,
Thy rest is nobly won, - '
And thou art blessed.
The Son of-God hath come,
Safely he led thee home,
Best, brother, rest.

Bov. Ralph'Bya-on Hoyt. .
Of the Rev. Ralph ByronHoyt, formerly
"assistant rector of St. Paul’s church in
Norwalk, whose death we chronicled last
week, the following was published in the
Daily State Register, Springfield, Illinois,
2lst ult. :—
Hov'i'.—At the residence of Bishop So mour,
Julyelilth, Rev. Ralph Byron Hoyt, Dyson 'of
Me ansboro.
Mr. Hoyt was the son of Rev. Ral h
Hoyt, and was born in New York, N. .,
August 9th, 1844. He was educated at
Trinity school, studied theolo with his
- father, and was ordained a priest at the
age of 26 years. Soon after his ordination
he was placed in charge of a parish in
Tenefiy, . J ., where he remained about
two years, when he was called to St. Paul’s
church, Jersey City, N. J. He was next
called to assist the rector of a large city
church inlConnecticut. [St. Paul’s, Nor.
GAZR’I'I‘E.] From there he
came at the behest of the bishoBofSpr-in -
field to labor in his diocese. tiring h
brief stay in' Springfield‘ he organized a
most useful association of young girls un-
der the name of the Guild of the Holy
Child. This guild met with him a few
days previous to his death. He also or.
anized a boys’ guild, and a “Young
adies’ Literary Guild” of much merit.
Under his management the parish Sunday
school and the various missions grew
strong. But the great work of his life
was in thedeane ochLeansboro. Here
he made the “Wilderness to blossom as
the rose,” and as a reward for his untiring
zeal and energy was made dean and chief
missionary, with a jurisdiction over ten
counties. After his removal from Mt.
Vernon to Mt. Carmel the rectorsbip in.
cluded the chaplaincy of a large school,
which he was mainly instrumental in
building up. Here he gave all he had to
give—time, talent, means and life. Health
failing rapidly in his new field, his friends
frequently urged him to leave, but his in-
variable reply was, “they have need of me
here.” And so, at the age of 42, he died,
leaving nothing of this world’s oods be-
hind him, but a beautiful examp e of holy
zeal. No truer or sweeter words can be
said of him than those of the bishop who
loved him: “Mr. Hoyt was a good man.”

The officials of the Consolidated Road
were in the city Wednesday, and looked
over the Main street crossing, ,and ex-
pressed their willingness to put up the
Copeland gates if the city preferred them
to. those used on the line of the road.
The same day a member of the firm man-
ufacturing the Copeland gates came to
the city and took the measurements at the
crossing, and now it won’t be long before
a safeguard will be placed at this danger-
ous crossing. The proposed gates are in
use on the Harlem River road, and are
much less unsightly than the poles which
were objected to. They consist of short
arms at each side of the crossing which
swing up and dowh. Extended from them
is a cable, when the gates are opened,
when closed the arms fall and the cable
is lowered. Signals hang on the cable.
This plane. gets rid .of the center post, and
it is believed will prove 'a sufficient warn-
ing to' prevent 'cccidents at the crossing.

Another Bald.
Another house of ill fame was raided
last Sunday night'by Lawyer Rose, assist-
ed by five ofilcers from South Norwalk.
Complaints had been made by citizens of,
Darien living in the neighborhood of Nora
Wasbburn's place, and Rose undertook
the task of breaking it up. The raid was .
made at about half past nine Sunday night,
resulting in the capture of five women and
five men. Justice Austin was summoned,
who held court in 'a vacant house in the
neighborhood, and all pleading guilty,
Nora was fined $5, and costs, one of the
other women was fined $3 and costs, two
other paid $2 and costs each; and one paid
$1, and costs. The men were each fined
$1 and costs. All hands paid up and were
discharged, on promising to give up the

The Bridgeport Accident.
The Standard says: A member of the
board of public works gives it as'his opin-
ion that tho recent fatal accident on the
single track of the New York & New
Haven road will result in the transfer of
all the company's tracks from the city
property on Water street. The board of
public works will probably make no report
to the common council in the matter until
they can report something more definite
than has been done for years in this mat-
ter. It, is generally believed that the
. double tracks will so'on be laid.

‘1. 0: chronic Confirmed.
A telegram received by the Gum's
from Washington announces that the Sea-
ate has confirmed the nomination of- Mr.
A. C. Golding for post master at Nor-
walk." ' ' .
As liber- See Us.
There are three things rendering Nor.
' walk desirable‘as a summer resort«—-its
great age and interesting history, the
diversity of its territory, and its island
dotted harbor and charmingly romantic
share front.. There are few waste places
in the town. Trees flourish to such an
extent that visiting strangers often remark
that property owners must have given to
them special license, so numerous and
stately have they become. Highways and
-byways are cared for liberally at town
expense, and driving is more than a
pleasure. The poplar trees on a hill near
the village, under which General Tryon
witnessed the burning of the town in 1779,
still stand to remind the people of the
Times that tried men’s souls, and one citi-
zen has preserved the chair in which
Tryon sat during the confiagration. Rev-
olutionary heroes .sleep in the cemeteries.
In summer all is beauty everywhere, and
the quintessence of it is found near the
shore. Dorlon Point, formerly known as
Gregory’s, for age takes the precedence.
It is an arm of land. near the harbor en-
trance, which money has beautificd and
made attractive. Here the Fat Men’s
association was formed, and here, for six-
teen years, the heavy weights of the
country have found their way. Across
the bay from Dorlon‘s are reminders of
Tweed ring glories, only one of those'
associskd With the leader remaining-—
Mr. E. A. Woodward, whose splendid
premises are, speaking without bias, as
near to the mind's idea of Paradise as
- mortals exercising taste and care can
make them. All that remains of Ingersol,
the chairmaker’s glory, and his mansion
on the hill are heaps of ashes'b‘nd debris.
Wilson Point, formerly known as Belden’s
Neck, where, forty years ago, one of
Commodore Vanderbilt’s steamers, the
Nimrod, plying between New York and
Bridgeport, used to stop if a single pas.
'seoger for Norwalk desired it, has all its
former beauties enhanced by age. The
Wilson mansion and farm are examples of
what good judgment, diligence and enter-
prize will bring about. East of the Point
are Ram Island and old Chimmuns Island,
Long Beach, Smith‘s, or Norwalk.- L. I..
with the government lighthouse, each a
paradise in miniature. To the west is Bell
Island. a gnarl of’ruggcd rocks, with soil
enough among the interstices to invite
humanity. The cottages are all occupied
by people from Danhury, Bethe], Ridge-
field, Litchfield and Norwalk, who never
think of departing till October. Seven
new cottages have been put up this season
and more are in contemplation. During
the past four years twenty-four new cot-'
tages have been erected, and the old Bell
House raised and enlarged to accommo-
date sixty guests. A little further south
is another reminder of the Tweed Ring—
Kcyser’s Island, than which, in its time,
no lovelier tract did sunjever shine upon.
John Kcyser, after whom the island took
its name, spent thousands on what he sup-
posed was to be his dwelling-place for
life. To all his outlay nature responded
liberally, and to-day it is beautiful. Roton
Point, called by some the Brighton of the
East, has its rocks, aged pines, beaches,
groves, tables, pavilions and all the natur-
al attractions which make salt sea breezes
grateful. The point is reached by water
in a jaunty little steamer which makes
regular hourly trips to South Norwalk
and Wilson Point,. and Iandwisc over one
of the prettiest highways in Fairfield

Why Men Don’t Harry.
The World recently propounded the
absorbing question: “Why Don’t Men
Marry ?" In response it is deluged with
letters from all over the country, convoy-
ing ideas on the subject, which are inter-
esting, instructive-and amusing. They
come from both sexes and are full of
philosophy. The male writers uniformly
bewail the'incapacity of the present gener-
ation of marriageable females for house.
hold duties, brought about by education
and dispositiOn. A Syracuse clerk em-
phatically asserts that he will not get mar-
and sew and beat carpets." Another
writer pertinently asks: “Where Will be
the incentive to marry in‘the future if our
daughters are to be educated to despise
house drudgery, so called, by their
mothers, who submit to unlimited license
and insolcnce from their thoroughly ignor-
ant and incompetent servants, without
taking’the least trouble to remedy this
growing evil 1’" Another struggles along
in single blessedncss, "evidently through a
morbid fear of the consequences of a pos-
sible incompatibility of temper. His ar-
gument recalls the case of the old maid
who wept bitterly when she thought
of the grief she would experience if
she should ever get married and have a
baby, and that baby should be taken
sick and die. He says: “Under the laws
of the State of New York a 'married
woman can disagree with her hus-
band, lcavc him and force him to support
her in proportion to his income. It is
only necessary to secure the services of'a
lawyer, start a suit for ‘limited divorce,’
which suit can be started by the most
flimsy charges, and he will be obliged to
pay her lawyer counsel fees and her all-
mony before a trial is bad and he can be
heard, and after the trial alimony to her.
The law, as it is now, is an’ incentive to
‘breaking up' families rather than a pro-
tection to ‘wedded bliss’ (P) With Ludlow
jail in existence it man can be ruined by
the woman who swears to love, honor
and obey him at the altar.” His advice
to young men is to “wait until you are
forty before you marry, and then you
won't marry at all." Ida B. writes caus-
tica'lly: “The less character and the fewer
accomplishments a man possesses, the
more he expects in the girl he marries."
She cites an amusing illustration as fol-
lows: “A bachelor ona hotel piazza was
giving a description of what his wife must
be. When he had finished a bright wo-
man, looking pityingly at his bald head
and blood appearance exclaimed : ‘So much
for so little l’"

Karly Year's Azo.
A Goshen correspondent furnished the
following to the Litchfield Enquirer .-
“The excitement here last week in rela-
tion to the murder of Mattie Randall in
Morris was intense. She was a niece of
.Mr. Allen, our postmaster, and was a
favorite with our' ' young people. And
now that Lockwood has hung himself and
cheated justice, if there is any law for it,
the wretch should certainly be cut up by
the doctors for the benefit of medical sci-
ence. Many .. years ago a man brutally
murdered his wife and her funeral was
attended by the community, but the
neighbors of the man dug a shallow grave
on a cold, windy hill, where there was a
crossing of four roads, and cast his body
into it without any coffin and marked the
place by driving a long stake through his
heart." .

The sloop C. H. Phillips, which has
been moored above the bridge for some
time was taken below last Thursday, con-
siderable difficulty was experienced in
opening and closing the draw to permit its
passage.
Mr. William Coley of this place arrived

On Thursday evening National Hall was
filled with people from this and adjoining
towns the occasion being the Mikado tea
party given by the young people for the
benefit of the Library and Reading Room
Association. The Hall was handsomely
‘ and tastefully decorated, prominent among
the decorations being two pictures which
were brought from China thirty'four years
ago by Capt. William C. Staples. About
one hundred of the young ladies and gen-
tlemen were attired in Japanese costume
and presented a unique appearance. Re-
freshments were served'and after the older
people had retired the younger portion
engaged in dancing. The Westport Band
furnished excellent music. The attend-
ance was much larger than was anticipa-
ted and the affair was a most complete
success. About $80. was the net receipts.

STATE AND GENERAL.
The Bridgeport and New Haven Elks
played ball on Friday. On Saturday the
Farmer had this itcm:——“A few of the
Bridgeport Elks were alive to-day, but
didn’t feel very frisky."
There is a movement at Litchfield to
secure the erection of a monument to
Mattie Randall the young girl who was
murdered. It is proposed to have an en-
tertainment for which there are already
several volunteers. The proceeds would
it is hoped form the nucleus of a larger
fund. Part of the plan is to secure con-
tributions from Sunday schools.
A Waterbury dispatch says: Three
Waterbury men, Jerry Delaney, William
Madden and a friend, all of correct habits,
were arrested and locked up as common
pickpockets at Albany, N. Y., last Mon-
ried until women learn “how to 0001‘ 'day. They went there to attend the bi-
centennial celebration and were arrested
as soon as they got off the train by an ig-
norant detective who supposed them to be
Bridgeport pickpockets. The Waterbury
men had great difficulty in getting word to
their Waterbury friends, and were com-
pelled to remain locked up for eight hours.
They were finally released and the “de-
tective" was sternly reprimanded by the
magistrate, while the three Waterbury
men were given honorable discharges.
They vow never to be seen in Albany
again. They have just reached home and
their adventure has leaked out.
For a long time James Davy and his
wife, of Union City, have lived unhappily
together. Both were addicted to the use of
intoxicants and as a result quarrels between
them were frequent and violent. Some
days ago Davy got tired of going to his
home, and he left his wife to support her-
self and their four children. The woman
seemed to become completely discouraged
at this turn of afiairs, and on Thursday
afternoon she visited one of the village
stores and bought a package of Paris green.
Returning to her home, she mixed a dose
of the poison in water and drank it in
the presence of her children. She did
not attempt to force the little ones to take
any of the poison, but she gave them the
the rest of the Paris green to play with.
As soon as the neighbors heard of Mrs.
Davy’s action they came to the rescué and
sent for a physician, who worked all night
to save the woman’s life. In spite of all
his efiorts she died on Friday.
