'nb NOiiwALK GAZETTE. Linoleum... i.i0imisi,ir..issuciate. Wednesday. June 8, 1887. ‘ ~ ‘ «Donors to Nor-walk. ‘ The ._ appointment of U. S. Treasurer Hyatt brings to mind some of the former honors Norwalk has received in the persons of her sons. We have had two governors of the state. Gov. John Fitch and Gov. Clark Bissell were selected from this town, and Gov. Lounsbury was a resident of Nor. walk prior to his permanently locating his residence at Ridgefield. Two U. S. senators, Hon. Thaddeus Betts (who died in Wash- ington during his term) and Hon. 0. S. Ferry, who also died during his second term of service. Three congressmen, in recent years, Hon. Thomas B. Butler, Orris S. Ferry and Levi Warner. Some half dozen, or more, state senators have gone from this town to our own legislature. Col. F. St. John Lockw00d was on Go'v. Buckingham’s stafi‘, and was one of Connecticut’s first. State Bank Commissioners. Gen. Charles Olm- stead as is known is Quarter-Master General on Governor Lounsbnry’s staff. Gen. Darius Couch was a conspicuous and gallant com- mander in our late war and was specially not- ed for his ability and gallantry in defence of the union cause at Gettysburg. A former citizen of Flax Hill district was U. S. Con- sul.at an important station in China, and another citizen of Norwalk was appointed Consul to Sheffield, England, by President Garfield, (although he did not qualify) the Consulate to which President Cleveland recently appointed his wife’s favorite cousin “ Ben," and which he now fills. These are some of the merited honors conferred on citizens of Norwalk in the not very remote past. There are, no doubt, others that do not at the moment occur to us, but which show that our thriving little town is not and has not been without honor among the towns and cities of the nation. Perhaps the proudest record is that accredited us by the great historian Bancroft, who states that our town furnished more men in proportion to population, to the army of the Revolu- tion, than any other in the old thirteen. states. ————<¢>—————— The Sunday Train. The Railroad Commissioners gave a hear- ing in the Capitol Monday, on the petition for an order permitting the continuance of the Sunday newspaper train. The railroads were represented by ofiicers of the roads and by counsel. W. B. Hopson and Charles E. Gross was present in behalf of newspaper proprietors who send Sunday papers to Con- necticut. The Rev. F. W. Hatch, of Hart- ford, was the only one who opposed the granting of the order. General Superinten- dent Shepard of the consolidated road said that the public seemed to require the Sunday trains, and for that reason the company had run them. Commissioner Woodrufl said that the newspaper train of last Sunday was authorized by Commissioner Hayward upon the application of Mr. Hopson. Mr. Hop- son announced that he would submit in writing a formal application for the running of the Sunday newspaper train. Mr. Goss said that under the law the newspaper train could legally run excepting during four months of summer, and it would be shut off during those four months when it is most necessary. Mr. Hopson said that large sums of money had been expended in arranging contracts with railroads and newsdealers. The Rev. Mr. Hatch said that he had been informed by the editor of a Sunday newspa- per in this State that he didn’t publish it for money, but solely because New York papers were sent into the State on Sundays. Sev- eral of the railway officers present asked permission to run various trains on Sunday. After the hearing the Commissioners decided to authorize the running of the Sunday newspaper train, the limited expresses via. the air line between New York and Boston, leaving each city at 3 P. 15., and some special freight trains on the New England road. ______......__ ’ Old London. We want to suggest to the little people of Norwalk, especially those who are studying history, that they invite their “sisters and their cousins and their aunts ” to take them to the “ Old London Street” show in New York City. It is well worth a visit and will be a delightful way in which to spend one of their vacation days this summer. Some of the famous old buildings of London, among them Oliver Cromwell’s house, Sir Isaak Walton’s, “ The White Hart Inn,” &c., are faithfully reproduced it is said. in size as well as in appearance. The quaint lettering on the houses and old time look of everything about the streets and buildings would be an education to a modern student, who has but a dim idea at best of the way the English people lived two or more hun- dred years ago. ————<o>———— Commencement Speaker: at Yale. The commencement speakers for. Yale’s graduating class are twelve in number. The valedietorian is T. H. Curtis of New Haven, and the salutatorian is C. L. Brownson of New Canaan. The other speakers, who were chosen on the merits of English orations on assigned subjects are : G. H. Beard of Chicago ; E. L. Bliss of Newbnryport, Mass; J. C. Diehl of Erie, Pa. ; J. H. Kirkharn of Newington ; You Phon Lee of Fragrant Hills, China; 0. T. Morse of Chicago ;, w. L. Phelps of New Haven ; J. N. Pomeroy of San Francisco; J. G. Rosenzweig of Erie, Pa.; F. R. Whittlesey of Southington. The father of the valedictorian is principal of the New Haven High School, and his twin brother is the third man in the class in scholarship. o—>———-— Slow Work on the Panama Canal. A civil engineer just from Panama says that the American Construction and Dredging Company at Colon arc the only contractors doing good and telling work on the Panama Canal. Their huge dredges are cutting 0. bread and deep swath inland, American push and energy along being visible on the Colon side of the Isthmus. The amount of work done the past year has been astonishingly small. It drags along in a hopeless sort of way. Several large Scotch dredges, costing $200,000 each are idle in the Bay of Pana- ma. Others are working doing useless dredging in silt that washes backward and forward with the tide. ————<->———— The New Hotel. The project for a new hotel, urged by us some weeks since, seems to have received universal favor. As the best means of bringing the subject to a prompt and direct conclusion, some of our foremost business men and public spirited citizens suggest that a public meeting be called at the Opera House to consider the matter and invite sub- scriptions for the enterprise. That is per- haps the promptest and best mode to test the question as to whether sufficient financial support can be secured for the new hotel or not. If the enterprise is to be inaugurated this year, there should be no further delay in bringing the issue to a test. .____...>______ Hon. Wm. A. Wheeler Dead. Ex-Vice President Wheeler died at his home in Malone, N. Y., Saturday morning laft... He was Vice-President during the administration of President Hayes. Prior to that he was a member of the National House of Representatives. He was an able and upright man and no higher type of the modest, Christian gentleman ever graced public life. He never entertained a doubt of the legal election of himself and Presi- dent Hayes, else such was his high sensc of honor, he never could have been induced to have presided over the Senate for a single hour. Peace to his' ashes. ————-—4+ Gedney House. Gen. Charles Olmstead and wife being in New York over night, put up at “Charlie” De Kleyn’s Gedney House and are enthusias- tic in their praises of the homelike comforts and luxuries there afforded. Don't fail to go there for lunch, dinner or lodging, if you chance to be kept in the city over night. New Raven’s Monument. At the dedication of the New Haven sol- diers’ monument next week Friday theRe- publican Leagueiclub will give a reception. Among the non-resident members who are expected to attend are Governor Lounsbnry, General Hawley, C. S. Cole, A. L. Goodrich, and H. C. Dwight of Hartford; Colonel-W. C. Morey,\Norwich ;‘ L. I. Morison, Water- bury; Lieutenant W. H. Newton, Walling- ford; United States Senator O. H. Platt, Meriden; Congressman Charles A. Russell, George H. Sargent, New York; .Thomas Wallace, Ansonia; Wallace W. Ward, West Haven ; Samuel Fessenden, Stamford ; Franklin Farrell, Ansonia; James Graham, Orange; General H. B. Geib, Stamford; Colonel W. E.IIyde, Killingly; ex-Senator E F. Jones, Branford; Bartlett Bent, Mid- dletown ; A. P. Bradstreet, Thomaston ; W. S. Clark, Birmingham; L. W. Coe, Torrington; W. E Downes, Birmingham; C. S. Landers, New Britain; Colonel W. J. Levcnworth, Wallingfdrd; H. Wales Lines, Meriden. There is a prospect that a considerable number of students will have a place in the parade. General Lucius Fairehild, commander-in- chief of the Grand Army of the, Republic, has accepted an invitation to attend. A horse which was ridden in battle by the colonel of the, Fourteenth regiment and owned by Comrade C. H. Frisbee of Bran- ford, will appear in the parade. The horse carries several bullets in his body. Another horse owned by Richard M. Ev- eritt, 33 years of age, which was in several battles, will be led in the procession by a G. A. R. man. _ _._____«._____. “Connecticut.” A copy of' Prof. Alex. Johnston‘s work, “Connecticut,” mention of which has been made in the Gazs'i'TE, is before us. It is an able, scholarly work, worthy a high place among the series of “American Common- wealths" for which it is designed. The pur- pose of the work,asenunciated in its preface, is "not to deal mainly with the-antiquated history of Connecticut, with the achieve- ments of Connecticut men and women, or with those biographical details which so oft- ten throw the most instructive side-lights on local history.” On the other hand it “presents certain features in the develop- ment of Connecticut which have influenced the general development of the State system in this country, and of the United States.” It deals in an original and entertaining manner with the physical geography, the first settlement, Indian wars and colonial ‘ history and every phase and mutation of the progress of the commonwealth and her social, political and commercial development. It eschews the mythical and sentimeiitally ro- mantic, and leads of? thus: “Here are no witchcraft delusions or per- secuted Quakers, no doughty paladins or high souled Indian maidens, no drowsy burghers or wooden-legged governors—only laborious and single-minded men building a new state on a new soil, exemplifying in the process the tendency of their race when placed in a wilderness, to revert to the ances- tral type of civil government, ignoring the excresceuces which centuries have bred upon it." ->——~ Sunday Train Nonsense. Under the above caption the Hartford Gourant published, on Monday, the following sensible editorial utterance, to which every right minded citizen will unqualificdly assent: ' There is a deal of nonsense being. talked and written about our new law as to Sunday trains, and an effort is bein made to throw the law into disrepute an to revive the stupid old stories of Connecticut Blue Law narrowness. It is utterly unfair and is due either to malice or ignorance. Some railroad man is quoted as saying that the law will soon be repealed! Why, bless you gentle. men, your legislature does not meet again until January 1889, and there isn’t going to be an extra session just to repeal this law. And the law will not be repealed when the legislature does meet, though it may be improved, for it is a sound law. ' We are a God-fearing community, respecting the Sabbath and other sacred institutions. No good Connecticut citizen is other than proud of his state on this account. A vast anioulit of unnecessary business was being done on Sundays by the railroads—keeping men at work, disturbing public worship, and destroy- ing the whole character of the day as we have always known it. The legislature has said Stop! But it hasn’t forbidden all trains. It hasn’t absolutely forbidden any train except be- tween 10:30 a. m. and 5 pm. It has said that certain trains must not rnri unless the railroad commissioners consent. They can authorize a train and then it can run. The decision is left to them. They declined to accept the Sunday morning newspaper train, returning the schedule that had been sub- mitted to them with an approval of certain Sunday trains, hilt not that one. It raised a breeze; they have withrawu their disap- proval for one week and undoubtedly will withdraw it entirely as a result of to-day's hearing. There has been an unnecessary racket over an entirely avoidable trouble and the attempt to blame the law for it is at least ingenious. The law was so phrased as to obviate such obstructions. O Judcel' Meeting. The annual meeting of the judges of the supreme and superior courts was held at the capitol Monday. The schedule of the as signment of judges was substantially filled out but, as was the case last year, was left for revision before being made public. The State’s attorneys and clerks were appointed as follows: Hartford County—Clerk, Chas. W. John. son; assistant clerk, Francis Chambers; at torney. William Hamersley. New Haven County—Clerk, Jonathan In- gcrsoll; assistant clerks, Edward F. Cole, at Waterbury; attorney, Tilton ,E. Doolittle; assistant attorney at Waterbury, George E. Terry. New London County—Clerk, John C. Averrill; assistant clerk, John C. Kellogg; attorney, John M. Thayer. Fairfield County—Clerk, Samuel B. Sum- ner; assistant clerks, William R. Shelton, David B. Booth; attorney, Samuel Fessen- den. Windham County—Clerk, Samuel H. Seward; assistant clerks, Huber Clark, Ed- gar M. Warnci'; attorney, John J. Penrose. Litchfield County — Clerk, Dwight C. Kilbonrn; attorney, James Huntington. Middlesex County—Clerk, C. G. R. Vinal; assistant clerk, G. W. West; attorney, B. H. Bill. . eo———— Kean. Our friend Walter Fitch is in tribulation again. whose sundry brides had all been slaughter- ed during the winter and though he strutted about with that sort of grandiloquent stride a widower is said to put on when in search of another wife, the bird felt his bereavment so heavily that Walter resolved to fat and eat him. He fed him about four bushels of corn and had him swelled with fatness, when he sent for a crowd of New York friends to come up and eat turkey with him. The friends came, but, lo, the night previ- ous to their coming some despicable thief stole the old gobbler and hence Walter’s grief. He had to go to market and buy a side of beef to feed his invited guests in de- fault of the more toothsome turkey. He says if the blanked thief will only be a man and refund the four bushels of corn be fed him, he can keep the bird, inasmuch as he has no doubt already eaten him up. He also expresses the hope. that no near neighbor stole his gobbler. It was indeed an exasperating robbery. ————¢.>———— Says the (Iourant:—The death of the lion. Chauncey F.

The following article from an able attor- ney in Hartford will be read with interest not only by lawyers but by many others :— The laws of the last session of Congress are out and in them are found some decided changes An act has been passed permitting claimants against the government to sue the United States in their respective states and districts. The old notion tliata government is too dignified to be sued and made to pay its honest debts. appears to be pretty effectu- ally exploded. T is law, an extensron of the “ Bowman Act,” which in 1883 greatly enlarged the powers of the court of. claims, gives jurisdiction to the court of claims and also to the circuit and district courts of de- mands ainst the United States. It in- cludes a l debts by contract except war claims and those which have been rejected by any “court, department, or commission authorized to hear and determine the same.” Suits for $1.000 or under to go to the district court. For amounts between $1,000 and $10,000 to the circuit court. Tire party can file his petition and make service on the attorney general by registered letter. Dis- trict attorneys are to appear for the govern- ment. The case shall be tried by the court without jury. Provisions are made for ap- peal, but if the judgment be against the government it draws four per cent. interest until congress appro riates money to pay it. Another act great y restricts the removal of causes from state to federal courts. The minimum for jurisdiction in that court is now $2,000 instead of $500 as before. The tition must be brought within the time forvfirst filing the answer in the state court. If it is removed and is again remanded to the state court the party has no appeal. If a defendant gets a cause removed on account of local prejudice, it shall nevertheless re- main in the state courts as to those defend ants who cannot show any prejudice agznnst them. Thus a suit may be divided between two courts. Again federal courts have no other jurisdiction over actions relating to national banks than state courts have. Another very important change is that now no civil suit can be brought in the federal courts against a citizen except in that dis- trict whereof he is an inhabitant, and not as heretofore in any district where he is found. or where service happened to be made upon him. ——————G-.-O———‘—— “War Memorial. Rev. S. B. S. Bissell furnishes the follow- ing interesting article to the Religious Herald- of Hartford :— “ Sound the loud timbrels o‘er Egypt's dark J ehoriaeh'haa triumphed, His people are free." Memorial Sunday, commemorating the emancipation of the African race in America. as one of the results of the interuecine war in which suffered and fell so many .hero'es whose memories we honor—occurring in conjunction with the international Sunday school lesson of the emancipation of Israel from Egyptian bondage at the Red Sea-- suggests other memories of national redemp- tion, besides the great lesson of Salvation by Christ. _ One of these memories of national re- demption is that of Greece from Turkish despotism, achieved by.the destruction of the Turkish fleet in the naval battle of 1820 7. The writer at this can never forget the enthusiasm which the tidings of this great and conclusive victory roused inthis country; —nowhere more than at Yale College where he wasastudent. The glad news arrived in the morning of a cold, dreary Winter’s day: but the ardor of hundreds of young hearts, fired by study and admiration of Greek history and literature, could not be chilled nor dampened, but flamed outdn wild jubilation and congratulation, to which the day was devoted and to preparation for a grand illumination. At evening prayers the trumpeter of the college band was With the choir and when the usual hymn was substituted by this paraphrase of the chorus quoted above, “Sound the loud trump o‘er the Egean Sea, The hffralehi has fallen, and Greece shall be r I accompanied by the unexpected blast. of the trumpet, the. whole body of excited students sprung to their feet in a delirium of trans- port. And what an illumination followed! Careful pre infalion had been made .and signals had en arranged securing precrsron of action; and when the college bell struck the appointed order every window in othe front of the long line' of college buildings flashed out. simultaneously in Greek crosses, Wonderful was the effect when every ray was refracted through the thick coating of frozen mist enveloping every trunk, branch, hoiigh and twig of those noble elms of the college campus! Four Greeks from the devastated isle of Scio, two brothers Galatty and two brothers Halli, in the sophomore and freshman classes were the heroes of that day. How such memories stir even oldest blood ! “ Haec oli’m mminisse juval.” s. a 8. II. O Pro and Con.

Many pensioners borne on the rolls are entitled to a much hlgfier rate of pension than they now reoclvo. Inagreat majority of cases In which pension was granted for disease, the pensioner Is entitled to an Increase of rate, and In most cases where It was granted for wounds or Injuries the disability increases each year. As time passes the dlsablllty of;alllclasses naturally Increases. Many were at first rated too low, and It often occurs that (pensioners are unjustly or erroneously re- duce by examining surgeons. A pensioner Is entitled to Increase on a disability not set forth In his original declaration. The pension laws are more liberal than formerly, and better rating can be nod for many disabilities. I make a specialty of Neglected and Rejected Claims. and if you will present me with a brief statement of your case, stating by whom it was presented, I will obtain a rehearing of your case, and, if it has merit, wIll procure a favorable settlement Many claims stand rejected before the department, when It only requires a competent attorney to make them good oases. Soldiers suffering wllli disablllties contracted In smu‘ce, who have not applied for a pension, should do so as it Is their nicn'r.
