The East Norwalk R. B. Crossing.
The following order of our State Board of
Railroad Commissioners will be received
with regret and surprise by our people. It
virtually puts an expense of several thousand
dollars on the town, so that the railroad can
run its trains faster and more frequently,
without killing our people. The fault and
wrong, however, is with the law that unjustly
permits this and not with the railroads for
taking advantage of its provisions :—
* * * And now, on consideration, we
do find that public safety requires that the
changes in the location of said highway and
in the method of crossing the tracks as here-
inafter set forth, should be made, and We do
therefore order and determine that the loca-
tion of said highway and method of crossing
be altered, so that instead of crossing at
grade as at present, it be carried under said
railroad in the place and manner delineated
and shown an a map on file in this office,
marked “ Plan showing change of highway
from grade to underneath the tracks of the
N. Y., N. H. 6.7 H. R. R., about 1,500 feet
east of East Norwalk station, June 30, ’87.”
Said highway to be forty (40) feet wide, ex-
cept between the abutments of the bridge
under the tracks, where it is to be thirty (30)
feet wide in the clear, and to be laid out and
constructed from the highway, marked
“Maple Ave.,” on said map, to the highway
marked “ Highway,” on said map, being
marked on said map as “ Proposed Road.”
The bridge over said highway to be eleven
(11) feet in the clear above the same, and
the width between "the abutments thereof to
be thirty (30) feet, and said highway under
the tracksto be pr0vided with ample and
effective drains, so as to keep said highway
free from standing water.
And we do further order and determine
that the right of way for said change in the
location of said highway be procured and the
work necessary for said change in location
and method of crossing be performed, and
all damages incident thereto be paid by said
company, and on the completion of said
work said existing grade crossing be closed
by fences on both sides of said railroad, and
said town to pay said company the cost of
said right of way and the cost of the ex-
cavation for said crossing under said rail-
road. provided said cost of excavation does
not exceed the sum of twelve hundred (1,200)
dollars, in which case said town to pay said
company the cost of said right of way and
the sum of twelve hundred (1,200) dollars
towards the cost of said excavations.

Agricultural Fairs a Public Benefit.
The near approach of our County Fair
suggests the undisputed truism, that these
annual exhibitions, which bring together all
those interested in public advancement
which present for popular view the choicest
products of the farm, the garden, the loom,
the anvil, the workshop and store and the
artistic and deft handiwork of the wives and
daughters are among the best and most
effectual means of stimulating a healthful
activity and advancement in all that con-
cerns practical progress and enjoyment in
in our human lives. Especially should agri-
cultural pursuits aud products receive the
heartiest recognition and encouragement,
and wherever this is done the results repay
many-fold. As has been well said, Agricul-
ture interests all, directly or indirectly, and
whatever tends to improve it add to the
general good of the public.~ A prosperous
farming community creates thriving towns.
Their interests are identical, and one can-
not afi'ord to ignore the other. They must
work in harmony, and there should be no
semblance of eetrangement by reason of some
. trifling matter that; may threaten to tempor-
arily ruflle legitimate good feeling and
pleasant relations.
At our County Fair: the farmers are
brought into closer relation, and the ad-
vantages enjoyed must be obvious to all.
These brotherhoods of farmers promote a
most healthful sentiment in favor of agri-
cultural interests. Norwalk makes a great
mistake in not evincing a wider and deeper
interest in the annual exhibitions of the
County Society. Good horses, whether
competing for merit or speed, or both, as
well as fine stock or poultry, always attract
universal attention. The grounds will be
made picturesque ‘and inviting, and the
buildings ornamental. The horticultural
ball will be an especial feature, as the love
for the beautiful has increased wonderfully
during the past few years. Flowers are ad-
mired by all, especially by the ladies, and
the floral show will be immense.
Unfortunate mismanagement in years past
and the present domination of Bridgeport
influences do not inspire that local, Norwalk
pride and interest for which'we were once
so deservedly noted. Yet, despite these
embarrassing features, (which the society as
a whole desire to see overcome) our public-
spirited citizens are actuated by a sincere
desire to lift the organization up to its More
time success and popularity, and, we believe,
are resolved, this year, at least, to do all in
their power to make the coming Fair :1 most
' gratifying success in every particular.

Railroad Facts and Figures.
The directors of the Consolidated road
met in New York Saturday for the first
time since J line and transacted routine
business only. None of the big schemes
which have agitated railroad mcn and the
public for the past few months were
brought up. The special committee ap-
pointed to enquire concerning a site for
the proposed railroad village at Stratford,
Milford, or Woodmont, reported progress
but inore time was asked for, as their
work had been delayed. The scheme was
not discussed as it was deemed best not
to anticipate the report of the committee.
The reported consolidation of the interests
of the Boston and Albany and the Con-
solidated roads was not discussed and one
of the directors said yesterday that the
first he had heard of the scheme was the
report which had been printed in the
newspapers.
The directors voted to instruct the ex-
cctivc committee of the company to pre-
pare the plans and specifications for appli-
cation to the railroad commissioners for
the elimination of every grade crossing
between New York and New Haven.
Many of the road’s crossings in New York
state have already been eliminated, and
there are about a hundred from the New
York state line to New Haven that will
either be sunk or raised, according to the
topography. ‘
The New York and Boston Rapid Tran-
sit line, have, it is claimed, four gangs of
engineers in the field making surveys. A
prominent railroad man said Saturday
that the line would be located ready for
the contractors early in November. The
line is laid out through Norwalk, Bridge-
port, New Havca, Wiliimantic and thence
to Boston. - '
The work of connecting the Consolida-
ted road with its Naugatuck branch by a
line built through the old cut. at the
junction is complctcd. ‘with the exception
of setting the frogs. Superintendent
Shepard says that no regular trains will
run up the Y to the Naugatuck tracks for
some time. It will be used by the pay
car. and other specials, and will save a
great deal of time, as heretofore it has
been DCCLSilll‘y to run to Bridgeport and
turn the locomotive mounds-Standard.

Sad End of the Bold Lion.
. For. years the name ()f'Glu‘l'Ctt stood a
hon m the path of monopoly.. But it
seems that monopoly has swallowed the
hem—Baltimore Herald.
A Big Deal.
The details of the latest railroad deal af-
fecting the Consolidated road, are given by
the Boston Advertiser substantially as fol'
lows:
'The New York, New Haven and Hart-
ford, or "Consolidated.” and the Boston and
Albany railroads have agreed upon a con-
solidation of interests. or at least a trailic
arrangement that will secure to them the
bulk of the passenger business between New
Yok and Boston, absorbing between them
the New England and Norwich and Wor-
cester line. giving them a boat via Norwich
and an all-rail line via Springfield. These
rumors re arding the Boston line receive
strong confirmations in recent transactions of
both the great roads mentioned and also ex-
plain several matters that have been very
quietly taking shape for some time. The
ownership of the Consolidated and the Bos-
ton and Albany roads is substantially the
same and together it controls a majority of
the New York and New England stock.
With such power in the hands of the road it
will be easy enough to carry through the
following enter rise: .
The consoli ated .is to complete its four
tracks to New Haven, straighten all curyes
and modify the grades, shorten the running
time betWeen New York and New Haven
thirty minutes. This work has hecn olng
on for some time and is now rapidly mg
pushed. Culverts are being replaced by
stone bridges and rails are being relaid. To
do its share of the enterprise, the Boston and
Albany will, it is said, extend its four tra ck
to Worcester—the two new tracks to form an
air-lino from Westboro to Worcester along
the north side of Lake Quinsigamoud, with
' a new cut at the grade through the ridge into
Worcester, shortening the line about four
and a half miles. Two new air-line tracks
between Charlton and Palmer, the surveys
for which have been in the company’s pos-
session some time, will save seven miles be-
tween Worcester and Springfield, thus mak-
ing a saving of about twelve miles. This would
so Improve the road the run from Boston to
Springfield could be madelin two. hours, and
from Springfield in two and one-half hours,
or from city to city with the regular trains
in four and one-half hours. .
The com letion of such a plan will leave
the road wrthout a grade-crossmg or wooden
bridge, a dangerous curve or high grade in
the whole line. .New and powerful en mes
and cars are already contracted for an will
be the finest equipped in the world, wlule
the roadbed and masonry will be as near-.
ly perfect as lavish expenditures and un-
limited credit (.m make them, and With the
(two great roads thus welded into one the
New York and New England property
would be divided up and run as a local road,
the Consolidated taking the territory from
Hartford west and the Boston and Albany
taking from Hartford to Boston, together
with all the terminal facilities possessed by
them in Boston. This would allow the Bos-
ton and Albau room for all their feight bus-
iness on the. ew York and New England
docks in Boston-and give them an opportu
nity to occupy the whole of their present
terminus for the passenger busmess. The
passengers brought on the New England
track into Boston could then be brought in-
to the Boston and Albany station by a curve
from Dorchester avenue upon Albany street,
thus avoiding the necessity of using the
drawbridge leading to their present New
England station. .
All the Boston and Albany freight bus.
iness can thus be transferred to the New
England docks in South Boston, where it is
expected all the foreign business Will be
done. The East Boston docks could he
need by the Great Trunk, Eastern or Northen
Pacific for their ocean terminals, something
that would please these lines as well as those
that would draw trafiic thereby. As soon as
the freight business of the Boston and A1-
bany road is transferred from Albany street,
a new passenger station for all outgoing
trains can be built on the corner of Albany
street to match their present one on Utica
street. The latter can thus be used for in-
coming trains. This would bring about a
complete division of the passenger trafiic.
The arrangement of two sections on Albany
and Utica streets would leave a large open
space between the buildings at the foot' of
Lincoln street to be covered over with glass,
makinga great central carriage drive for
setting down and taking up passengers from
either station. This is similar to the great
London stations and would be the finest in
the country. It is believed that arrange-
ments can be made in Boston with the Park
Commissioners—dividing the expenses—to
remove the old passenger station on Beach
street and open up a iretty park there, giv-
ing the Boston & A1 any an elegant front,
directly in the heart of the city and large
enough to meet its wants for many years ‘to
come. /

More Railroad Gossp.
The substance of an article which re-
cently appeared in the New Haven Register
is this: It is announced that William H.
Starbuck, the New York capitalist, who-
recently purchased New Haven’s interest
in the Derby Railroad, has determined to
parallel the line of the Naugatuck road
from Derby to Waterbury. Besides this
he will build the western connection with
the Derby, extending the line from Derby,
through Shelton, either to Hawleyvillc or
to Sandy Hook, both of which points are
reached by the main line of the New
England. The parallel line to Waterbury
is a very important one, both to the city
and to the Starbuck interest. It will
give New Haven a direct commun-
ication with Waterbury and other import-
ant points, irrespective of the Consolidated
road system, which now holds a 99 years
lease of the Naugatucx. The freight
traffic over the Naugatuck is very large,
and when the line is built the competition
cannot fail to be sharp. At Hawlcyville,
on the Housatonic road, from which point
a spur connects with the Danbury &. Nor-
walk road, 1,500 feet of track is being
laid, which may revolutionize the freight
traffic of the Housatonic. . At present the
through freight from Albany and other
points is brought down over the main line
of the Housatouic to Bridgeport and then
over the Consolidated road to New York.
The pro rate. charges paid by the House-
tonic are very large, and the idea of the
bit of new track at Hawlcyvillc is to se-
curc accommodations for switching the
through freight off to the Danbury& Nor-
walk road, over which it will be carried to
W ilsou’s Point, where it can be shipped
by steamer to New York. Certain railroad
men in New: Haven are of the opinion
that the various railroad changes now be-
ing made in Connecticut by those directly
or indirectly interested in the New Eng-
land systcm are all portions of a plan long
ago mapped out by Jay Gould, Bostwick,
Sidney Dillon. Rockefeller, Christopher
Mcyey, Starbuck and whom, the grand‘
object of which is the estoblishment of a
gigantic system in New England.

Social Scientists.
The application of scientific methods by
scientific and thoughtful men, to the slcial
problems of the day, is one of the forces
which is doing ala'ge share of philanthroyic
work for mankind. 0f the many cnfinent
scientific bodies of our time, none carries on
its rolls names more distinguished in phil-
osophical research than the American Social
Science Association, which has just closed
its session at Saratoga. The scope of its in-
quiries and discussions covered the different
deparments into which it is divided, viz :—
Education, Health, Jurisprudence and Social
Economy, in all of which valuable papers
were presented and discussed by men who
have made them special subjects of study.
Among those in attendance were Prof.
Frances Wayland of New Haven, Rev. Dr.
Robert Anderson and Hon. F. J. Kingsbury
of Waterbury. The first and last read able
and interesting papers. The former on “In-
corrigibles” and the latter on “ Profit Shar-
ing in Corporations,” and both of which
were listened to with profound interest.

Attended the Wrens Funeral.
J amcs Higgins, lately an employc of
Sperry & Barnes at New Haven, died last
week. There was a press at work at the
establishment and the workmen had to
content themselves with sending a delega-
tion of two to show theirrcspect for their
associate. James Foley and James Ford,
the two chosen, departed for the services
at St. Patrick‘s church and were startled
to find the procession on its .wuy to the
cemetery: But they ran the horse and :
arrived in time to ask that the coffin-lid be
lifted while they gazed for the last time on
the well-known face of Higgins. But it
was not Higgins that they saw, and they
looked wizh badly disguised. embarrass-
ment. The other funeral was one day be-.
fore, and the two drowned their grief in
liquor and finally drew up at the police
station. -

Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON. D. 0., Sept. 1, 1887.
DEAR GAZETTEt—Albnllgll's Grand Op-
era Housc, in this city, presented .a bril-
liant appearance last Monday morning at
the convening of the Ninth International
Medical Congress. President Cleveland
in a short speech declared the Congress
open for the transaction of business. The
register shows 2,750 delegates to the Con-
gress, and among them are physicians of
nobles, princes and the crowned heads of
Europe, titled surgeons of foreign military
service; distinguished scientists and pro-
fessors of both Europe and America, and
others who have attained fame in their
profession. .
This Congress exceeds all others except
that at London in 1881. Of the other
eight five had less than a thousand dele-
gates, and the sixth had 1,200. The sev-
enth, which was at London, had a few
over 3,000. The eighth at Copenhagen
had 1,224. Thus in point of numbers it is
only second out of nine, and when we
consider that of the 3,000 in London 1,100
were of that city the number would have
exceeded that of London could we have
furnished the some number of’ local dele-
gates. _ . .
Everything is being done to make their
stay enjoyable. Monday nightht. grand rc-
ception was held in the new Pension
'Building, which was gaily decorated with
flags of all nations for' the occasion.
Tuesday they were tendered an informal
reception by the President and his wife.
Wednesday a garden party was given at
err-Commissioner Dcnt’s residence. Thurs-
day a grand banquet was held in the
Pension Building. Friday they were en-
tertained at “Grasslands,” by Secretary
Whitney", and Saturday the foreign doctors
left for Watkins Glens and Niagara Falls.
So witbal their meet here has been one 'of
pleasure as well as business. The regis-
tration fees received by the treasurer
amountto $20,000. Aim: of $1015 re-
quired cf each American member. The
fund thus acquired will bowed to pay the
expenses of printing and the transactions
of Congress. The valuable papers, that
have‘ been read daily will fill' Several
volumes and. a set will be sent to every
registered member.
Disease dare not show itself in Wash-
ington, and especially into the Washington
Light Infantry Armory. Its mortal enc-
mies in combined forces of great numbers
are assembled there. Pills and powders,
drugs, surgical instruments and all things
used in the profession of attacking dis-
cases and relieving pain may be seen
tllcrc._ Warner’s pyramid of 3,500 vari-
eties of pills furnish medicine for an army
of invalids. Old and young may be seen
carrying home bottles, pills, soap, etc.,
enough foralife time. We know of a
young bachelor from Baltimore, who took
home a bottle of infant’s food and sooth-
ing syrup. and seemed as happy as though
be had been given the world. The Con-
gress adjourned Saturday to meet at
Berlin in 1890.
The foreigners were the guests of the
American doctors, and with the many
receptions, banquets, etc., given in their
honor, I am sure they will return to their
homes well pleased with America and her
people. a. II. a.
A Valuable Work.
Mr, E. F. Marlee, the authorized agent of
the Appletons is in town, canvassing for the
now work being issued from that standard
publishing house, the Cycloplcdia of Ameri-
can Biography.
This standard work is the only National
Cyclopmdia of Biography in this country,
and is worthy to rank with the great national
works of its kind in the Old World, now
being published in England, Germany and .
Belgium.
The Cyclopzcdia of American Biography
contains articles on about twenty thousand
prominent native and adopted citizens of the
United States from the earliest settlement
of the country to the present time: also the
names of several thousand eminent persons
of Canada. Mexico, Brazil, Chili, Peru, and
all the other countries of North and South
America ; as well as the names of more than
one thousand persons of foreign birth who
are closely identified with American history,
like Bishop Berkeley, Braddock, Burgoyne,
Cornwallis, Lafayette, Steuben and Whit-
field.
No name eminent in literature, art, music,
science or invention will be omitted.
To this great national work are added
numerous notices of persons of the pro-Col-
umbian period, now appearing for the first
time in the English language.
The work will be complete in six royal
octavo volumes of about 750 double column
pages each. Each volume will be illustrated
with at least ten fine steel portraits, includ-
ing the twenty-two presidents of the United
States; Chief-Justices Jay, Marshall and
waite; the statesmen, Benton, Clay, Cal-
houn, Franklin, Seward and “'ebster; the
soldiers, Grant, Lee, “Stonewall ” Jackson.
Johnston, Sc ti: Sheridcn and Sherman ;
Admirals Farragut and Porter; the authors,
Bancroft, Bryant, Cooper Emerson, Irving,
Longfellow and Simms; eminent inventors
and artists, such as Fulton and Morse, the
whole forming a lnost valuable and attractive
national portrait gallery. , The work will
also include sleel portraits of the Emperor
of Brazil, President Juarez of Mexico, Sir
John A. Macdonald of Canada, and illustri-
ous foreigners connected with American his-
tory. These will be supplemented by two
thousand smaller vignette portraits on wood
made by a new process from original draw-
ings by Jacques Reich, an accomplished
artist, accompanied by fac-similc autographs
of the subjects, and also several hundred
views of birthplaccs, residences, monuments
and tombs of distinguished Americans.

Restored.
The Congregational church at Old Lyme
will be dedicated to-morrow, having been
restbrcd by Henry Rutgers Marshall, the
New York architect. It was a building in
the old renaissance colonial style. of archi-
tecture, and looked something like the
semi-classical work of Sir Christopher
Wren which is so‘ well known in England.
Some repairs made by the congregation
about 40 years ago spoiled the harmony of
the structure. This has been restored,
and an apse and a new pulpit have been
added. One of the most striking features
of the interior is .an old wooden’cornicc
about the ceiling and gallery made of
thousands of small pieces of wood, cut by
hand and doubtless by the congregation
for whom the church was built. The
spire of the church is one of the most
beautiful in the state, and the interior has
been decorated. These persons are ex-
pected at the services to-morrow: Presi-
dent Dwight of Yale, university, Chief
Justice Waite, who is a’nativc of Old
Lyme, Emeritus Prof Salisbury of Yale,
C. H. Luddington, and the Griswold fam-
ily. The minister is Rev. B. W. Bacon,
who is a son of Leonard Bacon.

Opera Comique but a short time ago, by
which over a hundred lives were lost,
sent a thrill of horror through the civil-
ized world. Ageueral discussion as to
the safety of theaters followed; but in
these days of frequently occuring horrors,
lessons and suggestions for preventive
measures are ,soon forgotten. The tale-
graph chronicles another and a likehorror.
A crowd in a theatre at Exeter, England,
alarmed by a cry of fire lost the instincts
of human kind and became brutal. Inef-
ficient and inconvenient exits became
choked, and the aisles and Stairways-were
paved with the weaker unfertunates, who
were crushed and trampled to death by a
frienzied mob whose physical strength
was equaled only by its loss of self-control.
The story is terrible, but it will probably
be repeated.

A Novel Bet.
‘wmxé I am not abetting man said F. J.
Cheney, oi the firm of F. J. Cheney &Co.,
Iconsidcr it my religious duty to make
that fellow a bet ; you see he was about
dead, and I guess he would have died
before spring if I had not got him on the
bet. You know "some men had. rather
lose their life than lose a hundred ; well'
he was one of that kind, and we both
came near being out, but I saycd my,
hundred and it only cost him ten dollars
Hew‘s that? lie sent for me buc.day,
and said the doctors had given him up to
die with the catarrh. I told him that I
would bet him $100 that llall‘s Catarrh
Cure would cure him or'I would give him
$100 if it failed. He took the latter
proposition. Itibia was three months ago.
You see how he looks now, don’t you?
As well as any ope, and a dandy:—

' A Most Delightful Trip-
I’l'obably there is not on this continent
if in the Whole world, a more delightful
excursion than overthc placid “liters of
the Hudson River by day-light, and when
lofthc rare audpictnrcsque scenery of
either shore is added the safety and com-
fort of one ofthosc elegant “Day Line
Steamers," the delights of the trip arc
wonderfully enhanced. It was our good
fortune the other day, to make the passage
on the Day Line Co'S. new steamer, the
New York, which is by all odds, the
richest and most exquisitely decorated
floating palace that stcams out of New
York. Her saloons, cabin, promcnadcs,
550-. are llll'gc and luxurious to a marvel-
ous degree. They are upholstered and
decorated with all that modern art can
Suggest. The large upper saloons and
corridors, are partitioned with finely
polished ash, mulmottlcd French walnut
root, while the ladies’ cabin and monster
dining hall, are furnished in solid, polished
and carved mahogany. These beautiful
natural woods are decorated with exquis-
itcly carved mouldings and ornamenta—
tions. There are also six private parlors,
for rental, wherein the tourist and his
family may be as retired and comfortable
as at their own home. Richly upholstered
l“ml-{cs and easy chairs fill the room,
while ceilings and side walls are decorated
and covered by Lin—crusts, Walton, and
Japanese papers of the richest qualities.
It would seem as if sumptuous adornment
and luxurious comfort had reached their
limits in this flouting palace, and we advise
any reader who has a day to-spare, not to
fail'to make this trip'beforc the season
closes. This too, is the most charming
season of alllthe'ycarfox-such asail. The
mountain tops and the. earliest» and bright-
est tints of Autumn now begin to give color
and beauty to the wooded _, hillsides.
Thousands of people seek this season
especially fora sail up and down the in-
comparable Hudson, for at no other time
of the year do so many marvellous beauties
greet the mind and eye, and on board the
gorgeous stcamcr New York, even imper-
ial Cascsar, never rode in such luxurious
state. Reader, don’t miss thistrip.

A line growth of oysters has been found
off the western end (if the boulevard at
Seaside Park near Bridgeport. This had
been bought by Beardsley Bros. to dump
the mud taken out of the harbor channels
by drcdges. No oysters were there, but
grew from spawn 'which had been attach-
cd to the shells deposited with the mud.
Therc will be a fine bed of them in two
years, and the owners have refused an of.
fer of twice the price paidfor the land.

Is an established fact. Although barely four

2,000 COPIES PER WEEK,
a fact which altestslts rapid rise and firm hold on
the public favor. It aims to be clean and whole-
some, and presents all the legitimate news in
readable, spicy and terse shape. Its subscription
price is sufficiently low to enable anybody to have
it without discarding any other of their favorite
journals, and it prospers without encroaching
upon the prosperity of.auy of its excellent and
esteemed local contemporaries. as is shown by
the fact that it enjoys and appreciates the hearty
good will of all—the GAZETTE, Hour, Sentinel,
