Cyrus DeForrcst owns a farm in North
Wilton and on his birthday every year a
large swarm of bees comes to his place
and take refuge between the floor and
ceiling of his house. All efforts to keep
them out have failed and it is a mystery
how they get into the building. The re—
markablc facts of the case is the regu-
larity in which the bees come around.
Last yearwas the one exception to the
rule when the bees put in an appearance
one day earlier titan usual. Atzthe end of
the season the floor is taken up and the
honey is gathered. The amount of honey
taken from the floor. last year was 96
pounds and the amount secured this year
was 74 pounds. Mr. DeForrest has
brought quantities of it to friends in town
and it is of very fine quality. The bees
are killed every year. but a new swarm
takes their place the following season.—

The Meriden Journal, speaking {of the
unusual abundance of apples this season,
says: “Ex-Selectman Kinne is busy
these days buying apples at nine cents a
bushel, and when he gets a car load, send-
ing them off up into Massachusetts to sell
to parties who_presumably make them up
into cider. So plentiful have been apples
in this state this year that not long ago
Mr. Kinne, had he known of it, could
have gone over Cheshire way and had
them for the trouble of gathering them ;
indeed, he now knows of a farmer who
had a thousand bushels of apples on his
land, who offered to pay $10 to any ‘one
who would carry them away, so that his
cattle could get at the .grass the fruit
covered. Since then the farmers have
either sold their fruit or gone to'cider
making themselves and that’s why the
price has gone up to nine cents. Mr.
Kinuc pays that for the fruit delivered
here in lots of not less than fifty pounds.

Samuel S. Bailey.
Samuel S. Bailey died on Tuesday last
‘ had suffered for some time. He had been
I engaged in business in New York for the
past) our and a half, and, his health rapidly
failing, he was brought home by his
brother“, Mr. James H. Bailey, about
three weeks ago, since which time he
sank rapidly until his suffering was ended
Tuesday morning. Deceased was 38
years of age and unmarried.
Mr. Bailey was a man of remarkable
natural talents and superior intellectual
attainments. Refined and sensitive in an
unusual degree, his nature was full of
poetry and keen appreciation of all that
was beautiful and lovable in art and
nature. He was in his every instinct and
impulse, a gentleman. IIIIVIIII no sympathy
I with the hollow shams of social conven—
tionality Iior any form of deceit -.i' hypo-
crisy, and by his unimpeachablc upright-
iicss, honesty and candor he won the
respect of many.
He took a deep interest in all the (pics.
tions of the times, and was to many an
oracle of political wisdom. His sympa-
thies and inclinations were with the demo.
cratic party, in whose councils he was‘ a
power, and although lie had no political
aspirations, he was repeatedly nominated
on their ticket for various local oflices,
his last candidacy being for town clerk in
1885.

Coal.
Another raise of 50cts a ton was put on
coal by our Norwalk dealers last week,
owing to the coal famine predicted by
them. The New York. Sun and Herald
denounce the attempted coal panic and
yet publish the news of the troubles
among the coal railroads and coal miners.
These papers say that there will be a
plentiful supply of coal after December
lst., but Norwalk people must remember
the difficulties and expense of getting it
here in midwintcr when our harbor is Ii-
able to be frozen. So our advice to all
who are “left” on their winter's supply of
coal, is to burn as much wood as possible.
use their cool as sparingly as possible,
and be sure and sift your ashes even if it
Show the coal speculators and strikers
that you can restrain yourself as hero-
ically as our friend Seymour does in the

In accordance with a vote passed at the
' annual town meeting, the sclectmen have
commenced ,work' on the sidewalk on
Main. street. The present condition of
the sidewalk is a disgrace to the town.
Chief Engineer John S. Jones visited
New York on Saturday upon an invitation:
from the Fire Commissioners of the city,
to witnessarevicw of a brigade of the
fire department, and also the presentation
of the Bennett and Stephenson medals, at
full account of which appeared in? the
Sunday papers.
On Wednesday evening a large number
of people filled the Church of the Assump-
tion to witness the marriage of Mr. Wil-
Iiam Condon and Miss Sarah Carberry.
The ceremony was performed by Rev-
Father Carrol]. The young couple went
to their own home on Main street, and
commenced housekeeping at once.
Mr. William E. Nash was awakened
about midnight last Saturday night by a
noise at one of his windows. Upon bemg
convinced that some one was there, he
raised his window and called to Mr. Kem-
per, who lives in the house adjoining, and
an investigation was made, which resulted
in finding a man who 'had evidently be-
come tired and went upon Mr. Nash‘s
piazza and sat down upon one of the
chairs to rest. He leaned against the
blinds, and becoming chilled shook, and
thus caused the rattling of the blind,
which aroused Mr. Nash.
On Sunday afternoon, Mr. Ephraim Os-
borne drove to Easton to take his daugh-
ter, who is engaged there in teaching.
Leaving his team hitched to a post at his
mother’s residence, he stayed until about
7p.m., and upon going out to go home
his team was gone, and up to the present
writing no trace of it had been found.
Mr. Osborne thinks if it had broken away
probable that it has been taken by some
one for the purpose of taking a ride, that
performance having been indulged in a
number of times recently in that vicinity.
giving up business and embarking with
Capt. A. B. St. John in the coasting trade.
There are great anticipations in regard
given by Co. D. on Wednesday evening, '
to the ladies who assisted in the Fair last
winter.
Rev. E. L. Porter officiated in the Con-
gregational church on Sunday, exchanging
with Rev. Mr. Ross. His discourse was
well rendered and listened to attentively
by those in attendance. '
Real Estate in this city is “booming.”
Large purchases have been made by
Frank Burritt and Jeremiah Donovan.
Other purchases have been made by
“syndicates" for speculation, and others
for immediate improvement.
It is stated that a party has made an
offer for the Congregational church and
grounds, and if it is accepted, will, upon
gaining possession. remove the church to
the back of the lot, and erect four magni-
ficent brown stone front stores where it
now stands. .
Horace Nash has closed up his business
and is in readiness to leave for his winter
home and orange groves in Florida.
While in the city, he has held some high
positions, being much of the time at work
upon the roof of the immense corset fact-
ory, on Ann St.
The ladies of the Temperance union
have with commendable zeal made an
efiort to build up their exhausted treasury
by holding afair and festival, and from
the crowd which were there on both even-
ings, we think they must have been suc-
cessful. Their organization and object
seems to be more successful than the Pro-
hibitionists. If the kindly acts of the
ladies, and their eloquent appeals, will
not. persuade a man to be temperate, the
high tones and rantings of prohibition
orators never will.
There is some excitement, and no little
indignation over the insolent acts, and
immodest language used by a few over-
grown boys, in frent of the methodist
church on Sunday evening, while ladies
came out before the service was over.
The excuse is that the lad who was the
ringleader, was drunk. If so, where did
he get the intoxicant ? As he is the son
of a once prominent temperance and pro-
hibition orator, perhaps an effort will be
made to find out, but that will not justify
the foul and abusive language used.
and limb, at the railroad crossing on
Washington and Main street, wasprc-
seated on Saturday morning. As ex-
Judge Alfred Knapp was attempting to
cross the track for the purpose of getting
his morning papers at Bodwell’s, be en-
countered a freight train standing still.
While waiting for it to move, another
train came from the opposite direction,
and shut him between the two. Many
who saw his position expected to see his
mangled body after the train passed, and
standing train, alive, but frightened, and
somewhat bruised on his side and arm.
It was a narrow escape. ’
