Constitutional Centennial.

Tire most important happening of recent
years, in this great country of ours, was
Philadelphia’s celebration, last week, of the
one hundredth anniversary of the adoption,
of the Federal Constitution. It .was very
properly made a momentous occasion. For

the whole last three days of the week all‘

business possible, was suspended and only
railroads, steamers and hotels seemed strain-
ed to their utmost capacities in dealing with
the immense masses of people which
thronged the Quaker City. It was estimated
that on Thursday not less than amillion and
ahalfof strangers were added to the ini-
mense local population, and on Friday there
could have been scarcely less. Five thous-
and persons tramped the streets all night,
the papers stated, because of their inability
to get lodgings, while other tens of thousands
slept in vans, cars, boats, sheds, stations,
saloons, &c., wirile a hundred thousand or
more were quartered about among the pri-
vate residences of the city. Scores of hotels
and restaurants were obliged to close their
dining rooms on Friday, because of the utter
inability to replenish their stocks of pro-
visions to feed these masses of visitors.
Probably so large a crowd was never before
congregated on the Western Hemisphere,
and the jam of people was, after all, the
grandest Sight witnessed in the everywhere
gcorgeously decorated city.

Thursday was given over to a parade of
the various civic and trades people. The
line was seventeen miles long and it was
dark before the last of it passed out of Broad
street.

Friday was military day, and the im-

mense procession was seven hours in passing.
The Governors of Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Georgia and Connecticut evoked the loudest
and most prolonged cheers. Governor
Lounsbury and staff were followed by the
Governor’s Foot Guards of Hartford, who
marched with a perfect precision, and their
unique semi-continental uniforms, elicited
no end of vociferous applause. Our Gover-
nor and General Oimstead rode about as fine
looking steedsas any in the line, and no
riders sat their horses more gracefully.
I Saturday was given over to a Memorial
observance of the occasion in front of Inde-
pendence Hall. The opening was a chorus
by 2000 children of the public schools and
prayer by Bishop, Potter. An address was
given by Hon. John A. Kassou, and the
benediction by Cardinal Gibbons of Mary-
land. ‘

There was fitting propriety in Connecticut
taking so active and prominent a part in
this great celebration. One which our legis-
lature recognised and which Governor
Lounsbury heartily espoused. It was in
Connecticut, as is clearly proven by Prof.
Alexander J olmston, in his “ History of
American Commonwealths,” that our
government “ of the people, by the people,
for the people,” first took shape, and the
American form of Commonwealths or States
was originated by Rev. Thomas Hooker of

Hartford, and he it was who supplied the
fundamental basis of the national constitu-
tion adopted zit Philadelphia one hundred
years ago.

Our Borough.

It is probable, and on every account dc-
sirable, that the personale of the next
courtof burgesscs shouldbe essentially the
same as at present. There would seem to
be no good cause for a change at this time
when our sewers arc in process of con-
struction, and a change might seriously
interfere with a prompt and speedy com-
pletion of the work, if not bring about
obstructions that would indefinitely hinder
the work and render the portions now
being constructed of little practical value.
Burgess Frank Comstock "will, of course,
not be renominated, having taken up his
residence in South Norwalk, and an effort

is being put forth to induce Dr. C. B,

Coolidge, Gen. Charles Olmstead, E. O.
Keelcr, John Treadwell or George R
Cowles to accept a place on the ticket. Mr.
Coolidge or any of the others named,
would fill the position with personal credit
and to the advantage of the public. Never-
theless the nearer we can keep to the pres-
ent borough board organization, the safer
and better will the public interests be pro-
tected and served, pending the completion
of the great and costly work of our gen-
eral sewer system.

The Cost of Sham.

According to the Boston Uommerciali

Bulletin. this country has lost by fires an
average of $10,000,000a month during the
present year. The owners lraven’t lost
that much. Many of them have been in-
sured and have recovered a considerable
portion of their private losses. But the
actual loss to the wealth of the country
has been the value of the goods and pro-
perty' burned. Tire insurances pard the
owners have been simply taxes levied on
the owncrs of other property which didn’t
burn. The actual loss to the country has
been measured by the total destruction,
not by the, net iosscs to owners, after in-
snrunce lras been deducted. Tire property
burned has ceased to exist. It has been
wiped out. It is a dead loss.

Tcu million dollars a month; over a
hundred million a year! That is what we
pay in this country for the privilege of
erecting sham buildings and of being carc-
lcss with them. It is twice as much as
the entire interest on the national debt

A New Governor.

Connecticut had a new Governor last
week in the person of Senator Walsh, of
Greenwich, as both Governor Lounsbury
and the Lieutenant-Governor of our state
were at Philadelphia. We trust it may
not be many years before we can have the
pleasure of seeing Mr. Walsh Governor
by a majority of the votes of tlIc- people
of our gallant statc.‘ Of course we nrrrst
run Senator E. J. Hill first; but after Nor-
walk supplies its most popular Hill, then

' we will go for old “Put's Hill,” and bring

out Walsh, as no better timber for a Gov-
ernor can be found anywhere than in the

' person of Hon. R. J. Walsh.

. How theiuaw Operates.

The newspapers have reported during
the past week that the Consolidated R. R.
directors have recently voted to take im-
mediate steps to abolish all of the grade
crossings on their road between New
Haven and the state line, at once. As-
suming that the board of R. R. Commis-
sioners will cxercise the power given them
under the law as leniently toward the
towns as they have recently used it, in
apportidning the expense at Fitch’s cross-
ing, town of Norwalk, the result can be
readilyapproximatcd. Thcapportionmcnt
in that particular case will reach, accord-
ing to the costjof the land taken for the
new highway ordered, from thirty to for-
ty per cent, it being not to exceed twelve
hundred dollars towards construction and
the purchase of the right of way in addi-
tion. All of the expenditures to be made
by the Company and the town being
ordered to reimburse it, when the work is
completed. By the way, it is said that a
distinguished railroad manager made this
reply to a gentleman who asked him if it
was a fact that New York city paid one
half of the cost of the 4th avenue entrance
into that city. “Yes, they paid one lraif
and I am very glad they paid the half that
they did, for the other half was not nearly
as much.” We venture to assume that no
stronger case for a town can be found
than Fitch’s crossing in the town of Nor-
walk, a road in existancc more than two
hundred years, and upon which the town
had expended hundreds of dollars to
afford the people access to it without
imminent danger to their lives.

The best authorities in the state assume
an average cost of separating the grades
of railroads and highways in the state at
seven thousand five hundred dollars.

The cost on this division of the Consoli-
dated rond will far exceed this average,”
one at South Norwalk running up to one
hundred and twenty-five thousand, one at
Stratford to thirty thousand, and what the
Bridgeport crossing would cost can only
be imagined.

But assuming the average cost, the
towns must prepare to face this bill which
will shortly be presented for payment by
the Consolidated R. R.:

The Top of Greenwich. 5 cros‘s‘ings, $15,000

 

Stamford, 11 33,000
“ “ Darien 6 “ 18,000
“ “ Norwalk 5 “ 15,000
" " West ort 5 “ 15,000
“ “ Fai eld 14 " 42,000
“ “ Bridgeport 24 “ 72,000
“ “ Stratford 7 “ 21,000
“ “ Milford 11 . “ 33,000
“ “ Orange 3 “ 9,000

Total, - - - $273,000

This is probably the smallest amount
which these t0wns would be called upon
to pay toward the reconstruction of this
line of railroad.

If now, land damages are to be con-
sidered, and they must be paid. if a possi-
bility of a fifty per cent apportionment, as
in the case of the city of Hartford is con-
sidered. is it not a fair calculation that the
actual total expense incurred by this com-
pany which these ten towns will be called
upon to pay will be over, rather than
under five hundred thousand dollars, and
all this in accordance with laws enacted by
the representatives of these very towns.
Certainly no harsh criticism can be in-
dulged in against the Consolidated com-
pany, for just over the line, in the state of
New York, this same company is cheer-
fully paying every dollar of these expenses,
because, forsooth, no Legislature there
has ever dreamed of compelling the towns
tobear “not to exceed fifty per cent of the
construction account" of the railroads
rrrnning through them.

Is it not time that this law was repealed
in Connecticut?

Is it not high time that the people’s
money, if it is to be expended by any-one,
should be expended by the people and for
their benefit, rather than for the benefit of
railroad corporations ?

Many a town in Connecticut to-day, is
suffering-undcra load of debt incurred in
building railroads which have passed out'
of their control and in which they have
not a dollar’s interest.

Is not a law which compels such towns
to practically share in the cost of a recon-
struction of these same roads an outrage
upon the tax-payers and a robbery of the
many for the benefit of the few? Under
the skillful manipulation of railroad at-
torneys, these laws have been enacted.
Under the some influence the biennial
session amendment was adopted and now
that the state is bound hand and foot for
two years, this law, which has been prac-
tically dormant since 1876, is to be invoked
and the whole schcmc consummated.

What will the Governor do about it?

Mr. Cleveland’s Views on Journalism.

We are now indebted to the President
for at least four very distinct expressions
of his opinion of American newspapers,
and the way In which they would be con-
ducted if they were made with special re-
gard to suiting his ideas.

About two years ago Mr. Cleveland
wrote as follows to Mr. Joseph chpler,
one of the proprietors of Puck:

“I don’t think there ever was a time .
when newspaper lying was so general and
so mean as at present, and there never
Was a country under the sun where It
flourished as it does in this.”

That is the broad and general proposi-
tion with which he started. The next
year Mr. Cleveland favored a J acksonvillc
editor, Mr. C. H. Jones, with a further de-
claration of his views on American jour-
nalism:

“I am surprised that newspaper talk
should be so annoying to you, who ought
so Well to understand the utter and corn-
plete recklessness and falsification in which
they so generally indulge."

A few months later Mr. Cleveland chose
a convivial gathering at Cambridge, Mas-
sachusetts, as a proper occasion for a
third deliverance:

“The silly, mean and cowardly lies that
every day are found in the columns of
certain newspapers which violate every
instinct of American manliness and In
ghoulish glee dcsecrate every sacred rela-
tion of private life."

Another year has passed, and what Mr.
Cleveland now objects to above all other
things In American journalism, as confided ‘
by him to a representative of Mr. Pulit-
zer’s newspaper. is: .

“The republishing of the comments of .
newspapers hostile to Me and My Pur-
pose.” -

The capitals are ours. We are getting,
little by little, it tolerably full and clear
notion of the President’s opinion of the
American press, and his theory of the
proper attitude of the American press to-
wards Him and His Purpose—Sun.

It is to be remembered that the Presi-
dent only reads Democratic and Mugwump

papers.

Wedding Bells.

One of the most charming weddings
that has delighted New Haven society in
recent years wasthat of Miss Helen F.
Nichols, daughter of Hon. John W.
Nichols, general agent of the New York
Mutual Life Insurance company for the
state of Connecticut, to Mr. E. E. Hall,
Jr., of the well-known firm of E. E. Hall
8: Son, of New Haven. The wedding
ceremOnics were at the little Trinity
Episcopal church at Brauford. The re-
ception was at Mr. Nichols’ country seat,
“Cherry Hill,” one of the finest estates in
western Connecticut. Great numbers of
the best people of New Haven, Brauford,
the state and other sections of the country
were in attendance. At ten minutes after
seven the two little maids of honor, Miss
Clara Nichols, of Fall River, Mass., and
Miss Bertha Colycr, of New York, arrived
at the church. They were beautifully
dressed in white, and carried mammoth
bouquets of roses. They were closely
followed by the bridesmaids, Miss Burt,
of Middletown, Miss Jerauld, of Niagara
Falls, N. Y., Miss Spaulding, of Lowell,
Mass, and Miss Barnes, daughter of E.
Henry Barnes, of New Haven. Mr.
Nichols arrived a moment later with his
daughter, the bride. She was attired in a
white satin en train with trimmings of
duchesse lace and orange blossoms. The
bridal procession was formed in the vesti-
bule of the church, and consisted of the
ushers, Walter Nichols, brother of the
bride, Dr. C. P. Lindsley, N. M. Cooke
and Frank A. Kellogg, the maids of honor
and bridesmaids, and the bride leaning
on the arm of her father. They walked
up the aisle of the church to “Lohcngrin”
wedding march. Attire altar Rev. M. K.
Bailey stood awaiting them, and the groom
and groomsman, Lewis N. English, there
joined them. At the conclusion of the
ceremony Mendelsohn’s wedding march
was played while the‘ procession flied out
of the church. .

The reception was held at Mr. Nichols’
beautiful home on Cherry Hill. Mr. and
Mrs. Hall were the first to arrive there,
and were greeted by a large greyhound,
the property and pet of the late Colonel
Henry Allen, which ran down stairs
giving every evidence of joy. The house
and grounds were brilliantly illuminated.
Chinese lanterns had been strung along
the walks, and the spacious piazzas were
completely shut in by canvas, furnishing
pleasant places for dancing. Shortly
after Mr. and Mrs. Hall’s arrival singing
was heard down toward the base of the
hill, and a moment later the bridesmaids
alighted from their carriage closely fol

lowed by the ushers. *

In one of the rooms on the second floor
of the house were arranged the wedding
presents, making a beautiful display'
Almost everything which would tend to
makehome attractive and cheerful by way
of ornament ‘was included, and there
was silver and china enough to furnish a
dozen dinner tables, also engravings,
.paintings, clocks, silver bowls and pitch-
era, cut glass ware, etc. Mrs. Hall’s par.
ents presented her with a solid silver
dinner set. The bridal party were driven
to New Haven in time to take the mid-
night train for Washington and the south.
The wedding was the most brilliant afiair
ever witnessed in that section of the state,
and many were invited from Norwalk and
vicinity._____‘»___

The Consolidated Road-

Eorron RECIsrcaz—I noticed by the papers
that the Consolidated road is trying to buy a
cemetery in Middlet-iwn. Can you inform me
whether they expect 10 make it the resting

lace of their numerous victims at grade cross-
ings? The notion would seem to boa. now
one, but the shocking accidents of the past
weeks would seem to compel the road either
to abolish crossings at grade, or take some ac-
tion like that suggested above. I am too cou-
servative for that new departure. The grade-
crossrngs must go.

PRO Boxofl’unuco.

New Haven, Conn., Sept. 6, 1887.

The writer of this communication is
not a whit more solicitous than we are to
see the grade-crossings along the several
lines of the Consolidated road abolished.
As forgthat matter we want to see them
abolished, on the lines of all the roads in
the state. But we also see a reason at
this time for remaining patient a little
while longer. For years the Consolidated
railroad has been managed upon a narrow
and selfish basis. The comfort and safe-
ty ofits patrons have not occaisoned its
management any perceptible annoyance.
Its one aim has been to make it a good in-
vestment- for its shareholders. To this
end, cheap and uncomfortable rolling
stock has been used, bad] arranged time
tables have been the or or of the day;
in fact the management has conducted the
affairs of the road with that assurance and
consideration of self which history shows
us in the nature of a big monopoly.

But to-day there is noticeable a decided
change in this Ioad’s method of doing bus-
iness. There is an evident disposition on
the part of the new management to cater
to every proper demand of the traveling
public. All along its lines, improvements,
long needed, butiong delayed, are being
made. New t'acks are being laid, the
road beds are being improved, stations '
are being enlarged, grade ems-sings are
either being better protected or abolished
altogether; in short an immense am-
mount of money is being expended to
put the road in the best possrble condi-
tion. In view of these facts, which, as
we have said, prove conclusively the
adoptionof a. broader and more liberal pol-
icy on the part .of its management, we are
decidedly of the opinion that the public
can afford to wait patiently for further
developments, before rendering a verdict
questioning the sincerity Of the present
management.

The Register has never hesitated ,to
boldly criticise the Consolidated road. It
will not fail to do so in the future, when
occasion demands it. We receive no fa-
vors whatever from the road, either by
way of passes or otherwise. We sim l'y
acknowledge, frankly, the advantages trat
have already followed a change ofman-
agemcnt, and upon them as a basis we
build our hopes that in time the road will
of its own volition take up and thorough-
ly settle the grade crossing question.—

Vice-President Boss’s Views.

Vice-President Reed of the Consolidated
road is quoted as announcing that all the
grade crossings on that line between New
Haven and Portchester will be abolished ;
before the end of 1888, if the Harlem road '
will do the same between Portchcster and E
New York city. He also thinks that the ,
removal of the shops from New Haven g
and the establishment of a railroad town .
will be accomplished “long before ten
years,” which time had been suggested to
him by the interviewer as a possible limit.

Deafness Can’t be Cured.

By local applications as they can not
reach the diseased portion of the car.
There is only onc way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucus lining of the Eustach-
ian Tribe. eron this tube gets inflamed,
you have crumbling sound or imperfect

hearing, and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the in-
flammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh,‘which is
nothing but an inflamed condition of the
mucus surfaces.

We will give One Ilundrcd Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by Catarrh)
that we cannot cure by taking Iiall’s

Bret Harte has written many delightful
stories, but the romance of petite, viva-
cious and audacious little

THANKFUL BLOSSOM

is undoubtedly one of the most exquisite
of the great number of novels emanating
from his pen. .

Located in New Jersey, in Revolution-
arytirnes, it deals with Gen. Washington
and his immediate surroundings during
one of the darkest periods of the great
struggle for independence. It is just his-
torical enough to possess an added charm
on that account.

The story has lots of healtbfm excite-
ment about it, and enough love, treachery
and romance to give it zest.

After some thrilling and not a few
funny incidents, the heroine marries a gal-
lant major in Gen. Washington’s army,
and all and: well. .:- __ .
