For _w_a_rden. , In the Interest of our tax-payers and every resident of the Borough, we wish that the election and contest for Warden to-day, might be a citizen, rather than a partisan eflort and result in the unanimous election of Col. F. Sr.Jomt Looxwoon. Mr. L. Is not and never has been a rabid partisan. He is a republican in his poli- tical views no doubt, but he has never been a bitter or over zealous politician. He can see the good in apolitical, opponent as readily as in a party friend. Better than all, he is very cautious conscientious and e inservative, in all matters involving the expenditure of the people’s money. No “ring" or combination, can “run" him. He does not desire the 06100 and would give liberally, to be released from the consent he gave his friends who teased out of him the permission to use his name as a candidate. It is no disparagement of anyone else to say, that best citizens feel and know, that our municipal interests would be safer in his hands than in those of any other man who would consent to head our borough ofiices. Our democrat- ic friends have placed in nomination Mr. Glenda S. Gaseous, who is in every re- spect an upright, honorable main and pub- lic spirited citizen. He is as far from offensive partisanship, as is Mr. LOOK- woon, yet he has not had wide experience, and could not give the time and consid- eration to the complex financial problems sure to vex us before the year is out, that all would expect from Mr. L. It will be neither a loss of confidence in, or in. dicatiou of want of regard for, Mr. G. under present circumstances, if his many friends should cast their votes for Mr. Locxwoon, and on the principle of the “greatest good to the greatest number," we hope they will do so, to-day. -—-————-‘.>—-———" The Pitch Soldiera’ Home Investigation. The inquiry into the management of the Soldiers Home at Noroton, began on Monday. There were present Governor Lounsbury, Surgeon-General Fox, Judge Beers of Bridgeport, General F. D. Sloat and the trustees of the Home, the Hon. Talmadge Baker, F. S. Fitch and General Couch. James T. Murphy, one of the inmates of the Home, presented a petition headed by himself and bearing fifty-six names of those who desire to be ex- amined. Murphy has a medal for bravery, struck and given to him by order of con- gress. He said that he and the other veterans were thoroughly satisfied with the management of the Home at present, but that until within two weeks the food was poorly cooked and that Superintend- ent Pelham had been abusive to the men; also that the physician lived four miles away and that was too far. The trouble with the food, he said, had been "habi- tna ." General Couch said that Murphv had been in New Ilsven hospital and was about to be discharged for his intemperate habits, when Dr. Bissell begged the ofii- eials at the Soldiers’ Home to take him, and Governor Harrison ,seconded the re- quest. W The Norwalk Gazarra celebrated its eighty-seventh birthday one day last week, and started out on another year in a new dress and with renewed assurances of prosperity The Gazarra is an old paper, as We measure age in this country, where most such things are new, and, as it has always been a good one, it has an assured place in the estimation of the intelligent ublic of the section in which it is printed); it place too which it is not likely to lose. But what changes it’has seen take place in Fairfield County srnce it first commenced to chronicle events in the history of this sectionl Fairflcld was the County seat; Danbury and Norwala were the large towns, Stratford was an important commercial port, and Bridge- port was unknown when its first issue was put forth. Very few people who-had seen the light in this section at that time, are alive to-day, and fewer still of those who are still living were old enough to remember the first issue of the Gazarra. Next to the Republican Farmer, if not before it, the Gamma is probably the oldest journal in this part of the state, the Standard coming in a good third we think in point of years—Bridgeport Standard.

A First-Class Local Paper. The Norwalk Gaza'rra has changed the date of its weekly issue from Tuesday to Wednesday, which is a much better day on which to publish a paper, although Friday isa better day still, inasmuch as perhaps a majority of important meetings and social gatherings occur _on either Wednesdayor Thursday evening. The Gazma is now in its 87 year, and in spite of its great age it seems to be growing better every day. It is one of the bright. est and most'rcadable local papers in _the state, and its career in the future promises to be not less brilliant than in the past.— JVM Milford Gazette. 4" Suicide from a.

IN IEMORIAK. Henry Sumter Byington. [From the Hartford Cowman] The funeral of Henry S. Byington, edi- tor of the Norwulk Gazarra, was attended Wednesday at his home. The service was. conducted by this Rev. S. B. S. Bissell. The service was simple and was carried out in strict conformity with his wishes as indicated in a paper he left, which, among other things, specially requested that there should be nothing in the likeness of eulogy. The following facts additional to those already mentioned are gathered from the Norwalk Gazarra, the paper he so ably conducted from his accession to its management up to the time when his physical condition prevented fur. ther labor. The story of his heroic strug- gle for life is familiar to many who had no personal acquaintance with him. He fitted for Yale, but finding that the cost would at this time be more than his father could well bear, got himself entered as a law student, studied at Washington, ob- tained a clerkship, and not long after suc- ceeded to the management of the Gamma. His conduct of the paper was able, courte- ous and kindly, and he had hosts of friends and no enemies. [From the New Milford Coretta] Harry S. Byington, from October. 1882, to July, 1886, the editor and proprietor of the Norwalk Gazar'ra, died last Saturday night of a malarial lung trouble, at the age of 26 years. The beginning of his sickness was undoubtedly due to the ter- rible exposure which he endured at a fire in Norwalk on a very cold night of _last year. He was a ready and pleasing writer, and his genial and companionable nature made him‘ many friends. He will be greatly missed by his brother editors. He leaves a widow who was devoted to him in his last sickness. A. H. Byington suc— ceeds him as editor of the Gazarra. [From the Bridgeport Posh] Harry S. Byington died Saturday. aged 26 years. He was a son of A. H..Bying. ton, and about four years ago With his brother George assumed the charge of the’ Norwalk Gazar'ra. Deceased went south hoping that by a change of climate his health would be restored, but the hope was in vain, and a few months ago he was brought home where he remained until death came. He was a young man of rare promise, and his death will be sin- cerely mourned by his many newspaper friends. [From the South Nahuatl: Republican.) It is with sadness that we, this week, announce the death of Harry Sumter Byin ton, third son of Hon. A. Homer and arrlot S. Byington, which occurred on Saturday, a few moments before the opening of the Sabbath. The writer had known the deceased from childhood. His opportunities from the start were ex- cellent, and be it said to his credit be im- proved them. ' “ ‘ ' ‘ ‘ We sor- row with the strickeu wife who so faith- fully ministered to his wants, the indul- gent parents, loving brothers, and the many friends who can scarce realize that “Harry Byington of the Gazarra is dead." Some few Weeks ago he~outlined to his associate editor, John Rodemeyer, J r., his wishes regarding his funeral, and they wore carried out on Wednesday. Rev. S. B. S. Bissell, who officiated at his mar- riage, assisted by Rev. Edward Anderson, conducted the services. The burial was at the convenience of the family, a dele- gation from Our Brothers’ Lodze acting as pail bearers. Deceased was born on Jul 4th, 1861. Among the large number of oral oficring was an elegant pIIIOW from Pioneer hook and ladder company, and a handsome wreath from the em- ployees of the Gazarra ofiice. [From the Nowell»- Hour.) For long weeks he lingered, cheerful, uncomplaining, considerate of those around him, awaiting the summons of the Master. He died shortly before midnight. Funeral services were held at Mr. A. H. B ingtou’s home, on Belden avenue, on edncsday afternooon. The body lay in a cloth-covered casket surrounded by ele- gant floral designs, chief among them be- ing a pillow from Pioneer hook and ladder company, and a similar piece from the employees of the Gszarra. Rev. Edward Anderson read words of hope and cheer to the afflicted ones, and then the vener- able Rev. S. B. S. Bisscll spoke fceliugly of his relations with the young man whose body lay in the room beyond. A quarter of a century ago Mr. Bissell held the in- fant Harry in his arms and sprinkled upon his head the sacred waters of baptism. A few short years ago he spoke the words that joined the young man to the young woman of his choice, and at last he was to consign the body of his young friend to its last resting place. After these simple but impressive services the friends took a fare- well look at the remains and then retired. The burial which was private followed an hour later, only the immediate relatives and the six pall bearers, members of Our Brothers’ Lodge, I. 0. 0. F., going to the grave in Union Cemetery. Rev. Edward Anderson spoke a few solemn words, and the casket sank into its narrow bed. Henry S. Byington was a young man of many excellentiquaiities,aud his death has occasioned widespread sorrow and regret. [From the Ashtabula (Ohlo) Telegraph] It is with sincere sympathy for his be- reaved parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. H. By- ington. of Norwalk, Conn., that we learn of the death of their son Harry S. Bying- ton, which occurred last Saturday in that city. Though only 25 years of age he was ‘an able and pleasmg journalist, and his work on the Norwalk Gazarra added much to the interest of that valuable paper. [From the Newtown Bea] Mr. Harry S. Byington, proprietor of the Norwalk Gaza'rra. died; Saturday, 25 years old. He caught his death cold at. a fire last March, and drops life’s burdens as he was bravely fitting them to his young shoulders. Peace to his ashes. [Norwalk Correspondence, Bridgeport Standard.) The funeral of Mr. Harry S. Byington, late editor of the Norwaik Gazarra, took place on Wednesday afternoon at the residence of his father, Hon. A. H. Bying- ton. Fora year Mr Byington had been suffering from the effects. of exposure un- dergone at a fire one of the coldest nights last winter, and while he continued for a time to attend to business it was more than he had strength for, and last summer by his physician’s advice he went to Ocean Grove and later to North Carolina, hoping to regain health but to no purpose. Since his return to Norwalk he has failed rapid- ly, and on Saturday night he was freed from suffering. He leaves a young wife to mourn his departure, with his parents, brothers and many friends, He was 25 years old. ~ [From the New Haven Courier.) Harry S. Byington, son of the Hon. A. Homer Byington, and for the past four years editor and proprietor of the Norwalk Guam, died on Saturday, aged twenty. six years, of quick consumption. He leaves a widow. Mr. Byington will have the deep and sincere sympathy of people in all parts of the state in his sad bereave- ment. [Bethel Correspondence, Danburu News] A delegation of the Eureka hook and ladder company went from here to attend the funeral of the late Harry Byington, secretary of the Pioneer hook and ladder company of Norwalk. Mr. Byington is doubtless well-known to many in this place from the fact of his connection with the Norwaik Gaza'rra. [From theISouthport AdeerttserJ Henry S. Byington, of the Norwalk Gazarrs,dicd onSaturda last. Deceased was a member of Our rothers’ Lodge, I. 0. O. F.; be was also a member of Pioneer hook and laddercompany. [From the South. Normals Sentinel.) Harry S. Byington, of the Norwalk Gazar'ra, died, Saturday night, after an illness of several months, produced, it is believed, by exposure at the fire which destroyed George Gregory’s livery stable, and at which, in the performance of his duties, he suffered greatly from the cold. Last summer his condition became criti- cal, and he was taken to Ocean Grove, and later to North Carolina, but his case was such that no permanent benefits Were derived, and he was compelled, just at the outset of a life bright with promise, to resign his prospects and hopes of the present, and await the transition, which was done in the spirit of true man- Iiness and Christian resignation. A few years ago he succeeded his father as editor of the Gazette, and in that position did most creditable work. He was a most versatile writer, and in his editorial work exhibited a discretion and ability seldom possessed by so young a man. h e extend our deepest sympathy to the bereaved circle from which he has been taken, and especially to the father. To him, the afiiiction is a specially severe one, as in this son's management he had put the journal which he loved so much, and from him he had every reason to expect the fulfillment of a fond and proud par. ent’s brightest anticipations. [From the Stamford Advocate] We note with sincere regret the lament- cd death of Henry S. Byington, of Nor walk, who for the last four years, until within a few months, was editor of the Gazette He was born July, 1861, and died January 8, 1887. He early exhibited an ingenious, independent and manly spirit, and the possession of such business capacity and literary skill and judgment as would have fitted him in an eminent degree for a successful and honorable career as conductor of the old-established journal with which his father's name has been so long and so conspicuously con- nected. But it was not to be. r s s a He bore all his disappointment and suffer- ings with a cheerful fortitude and unre. ow. pining patience, which doubly endeared to their sorrow which no words 0 ours, howover sincerely sym athetic, can either interpret or console. c can but express to his childless widow, his parents. his brothers, and other bereaved friends our profound sorrow for the great affliction they have sustained. . [From the Stan] Mr. Harry Sumter Byington, editor of the Norwalk Gazette, died on Saturday night last at the age of 26 years. From bo hood the printing office has been his dc ight, and his untiring labors as an cdi- tor need not be commented upon. He was beloved by all who knew him, and the sympathy of the entire community goes out to his bereaved young wife and fam- ily. His funeral took place from his father’s home on Belden avenue on Wed- nesday afternoon. [From the Ridaefield Press] Mr. Byington had many warm friends in the profession, as well as in other walks of life who will mourn his loss. He was 25 years old. [From the ll’ertporlcr.) We regret to announce the death of Mr. Harry S. Byington, which occurred at Norwalk on Saturday last. The deceased wasiormeriy editor of the Gazette, and filled that position from October, 1882, to J uly. 1886, at which latter period he was , compelled to relinquish the position and went south in hopes of regaining his al- ready fast failing health, but to no avail. The funeral took place from his father’s residence on Wednesday of this week. The services were conducted by Rev. Mr. Anderson, assisted by Rev. S.B. S. Bissell, the latter gentleman having baptized, married and now buried the deceased. The deceased was 25 years of age, and leavesa wife to mourn his early death. The pull-bearers were Messrs. John H. Wade,'_ Richard M. Bouton, Arthur C. “ heeler, William A. Benedict, John A. Camp and Ebenezer Eaton. The burial was in Union Cemetery. [From the Danburu DemocratJ With scarcely more than a quarter of a century of life to look upon, Harry Sumter Byington crossed the silent river of death to the shore of life on the other side. For months he had been patiently waiting and watching for the summons which sooner or later must come t6 all. As editor and proprietor of the Norwaik Gazette, Mr. Byin ton was one of the best known men in Fairfield County. With a fearless and facile pen; with a love for his work such as few men have; with an inborn poetic fancy that would in time have placed him high up on the ladder of fame, he has been cut off before his feet had touched the second round. Genial Harry Bying- ton, the hosts of friends who have waited, fondling a vain hope for his recovery, will think 0 his early death with sorrow. Many of us will miss him; miss ' him and long vainly for a grasp of his ready hand, listen in vain for his cheery word of wei- come He has crossed the unknown sea: may we all leave as many friends behind us; may we all leave as clean a record, as bright a page. -—-—-~——<+>——-—- Another WarZBook. . Recollections of a Private Soldier of the Army of the Potomac. By Frank Wilke- son New York; G. P. Putnam's Sons, A very interesting and important contri- bution to the literature of the war is here made—one that takes one’s breath away at the start, it is so radically critical of commanders and methods. Think of the image breaking there is in the suggestion that we abolish West Point, because soldiers are born, not made! That West Pointers during the war were commanders in name only may be believed; that volun- tecr officers as brave and skillful as the best were not given a chance is indubit- ably true; that men ought to be selected pro rain from the community and no volunteers accepted so that the best and the worst may be mixed, seems to be still an open question. There are descriptions of the manner in which men die in battle; in which cowards skulk; in which men are driven to destruction by wrong orders or orders improperly executed The story is told tersely and so fascinatingly that it resembles a romance. ‘ It will be read everywhere with infinite relish and prove a good foil for official histories that deal principally with commanders and plans of campaigns. The foregoing review which we copy from the Hartford Post is a very apt and faithful delineation of one of the raciest, sauciest and most delicious and entertain- ing books of the war. It is written by a son of our old friend and associate on the Tribune during the war, Hon. Sam. Wilkeson. His son Frank enlisted asa private in the, battery service and was at the front about all the time. with his eyes and ears open the entire while and he has courageously given us the first intelligent private’s views of the conduct of the war, that we have seen. His factsare startling, his deductions unanswerable' and both go to prove thata private who participated in battles had as correct notions of the fight as our author generals who were usually miles away. This book is none the less interesting to us personally be' cause of his narration on pages 118 and 119 ofa visit we made him out on the advance picket line in our “long linen duster,” an incident that had long since passed from our memory. Bed Ticket Sale. -—The house of W. B. Hall & Co. is noted for its constant succession of bar. gains and its annual Red Ticket sales, in which all goods are closed out which belong to their respective season. We copy from the Bridgeport Standard regard- ing them : Forthe ninth time the firm of W. B. Hall & Co., announce their annual Red Ticket sales. These saleswi’l begin on Monday next and continue such time as room enough in the various departments of the store 13 secured to introduce a new stock of goods for the Spring trade. A great establishment like that of Messrs. Hall &Co., in their efforts to cater to the public during the busy months of Autumn and early winter, introduce extra lines of goods in variety and extent beyond what the previous year required them to handle. This is done one way or another by live houses by way of anticipating the calls of trade. [tones the accumulation seen on counters and shelves which, to the he. initiated, may look like an overplns of stocks which are stranded—wrecked on the hands of the holders. So far from this being true, it is the very contrary, for on these shelves and counters are still some of the bargains in all lines which have tended to make the late holiday sea- son one of the most profitable in the his- tory of' the house. During the season regular prices for cloaks in cloth, beaver or plush have been asked, but on Monday every garment will appear with a red. ticket attached, which means by illnstra- ’ tion that what before Christmas cost twenty dollars may now be had from twenty to twenty-five per cent. less. In brief red, tickets means reduction on everything, and the articles offered will be found equal in all respects to those for which full prices were charged two weeks ago. During the continuance of these sales all who trade to the amount of ten ($10) dollars will receive free return fare. +p-—— Real Estate Changes. Gould Hoyt, of New York, to John H.

We have bought goods during the past year at 50 per cent. loss to the manufac- turer, and we shall present in this most wonderful offering Silks, Velvets, Silk Tapestries, for Curtains, Rich Laces, and Lace Curtains, At prices which have been the ruin of some deserving importers of fine goods. We have watched our opportunities and have bought when unfortunate importers have had to sell. As has been our custom during the eight previous sales we reserve nothing. Everything belonging to this season must go. Our reputation has been earned by; making the: most rediculous sacrifices, none being too great to clean up each season’s business, and thus enable us to present on the new season a fresh, new and attractive stock. We invite all to ex- amine our prices and compare with flam- ing advertisers of larger cities, and re- spectfully request our friends to come in the morning as much as possible to avoid the crowd which these sales necessarily draw in the afternoon, and assure them that there never was an opportunity when they could lay out their money as advan- tageously as now. We shall place Seal Clocks, Seal Wraps & J aekets, Furs and Far Trimmings In the same low scale of prices as other cloaks. Beautiful Seal Wraps that were $150 and $175, will be sold in the Red Ticket Sale at $115 and$125. Those that were $120 and $125, trimmed with Persian Lamb, Black Martin, Alaska Sable or Natural Beaver will be found marked $75, $85 and $100. We have now in stOck some of the finest, best and most fashion- able Fur Garments évcr brought into this city, and from $25 to $50 each can be saved as we will not carry one garment over the year. SEAL PLUSH SACQUES. Our own great Prize Medal Plush Sacque, audlall the grades from $17.50 to $85 will go in the great Red Ticket List at a price which will be the lowest ever known for same qualities. W. B.

In these suspicious times it is not enough that manufactu- rers of food preparations base their claims for patronage on goods are “ absolutely pure." The absolute purity of a poison intensifies the banefnl efi'ects of its improper use. The absolute purity of ammonia, a drug of baking powder and in largely advertised, greatly increases the force of the objection made by the most eminent scientists of our day to the use of ammonia in food. This protest of the medical and chemical professions is due product of decomposition—- when taken into the stomach with our daily meals is Hence the public should insist upon knowing what all food compounds contain and ALL that they contain. Let the edict go forth that no article intended for use in the prepa- ration of our daily bread shall receive public support unless the manufacturers’ formula be published. Then shall we have a confiding public, and as a result loss injury to the public health. Cleveland’s Superior Baking Powder is made only of strictly pure Grape Cream of Tartar, Bicarbonate of Soda, and. a little wheat flour, the latter to preserve the strength of the powder, and does not contain Ammonia, Alum, Lime, Acid Phosphates, CLEVELAND BROTHERS, Albany, N.
