expense of about $2,000 the must traveled
streets could be put and kept in excellent
condition. The present expense exceeds
this amount, and the streets are in bad
condition."

Druggist George B. l’laisted is the pos-
sessor of abook which is probably the
most airtiquc specimin of printing in this
region. It is a compilation of annotations
on the works of Cicero, printed in 1552, in
the style of italics peculiar to that period,
and bound in cream colored sheepskin
evidently tanned and stretched after the
manner of a drum head. The book is iii
an excellent state of preservation and the
ink is as black and the letters as distinct
as if it were not 336 years old. It isa
curiosity that would gladden the heart of
the most enthusiastic antiquarian and. lit-
terateu'r.
An enthusiastic meeting of the mem-
bers of the Norwalk Y. M. C. A. was held
in the Association Parlor on Monday even.
ing to organize an Outing Club for error.
cise in rambling, rowing, tennis,b:isc ball ,
bicycling and horseback riding. Com-
mittecs of three were appointed for each
department, who will be responsible for
their management. The first conditions
necessary to participating iii these sports
are a paid-upmcmbcrsliip in the Y. M C.
A., and gentlemauly conduct under all
circumstance". The association will pro-
bably play ball with the Stamford Y. M.
C. A. on Decoration Day morning, and a
return game in Norwalk in the afternoon.
The alderman of New York have de-
cided, by a vote of 20 to 3, that Mayor
Hewitt had no business to confine the roof
of the city hall to the display of the Ameri-
can flag, and have overruled his veto of
the bill permitting the use by any and all
nations of the public fingstafi's ou gala
occasions. ‘ It would require more than
human self-control for the adopted citizens
of New York to resist the temptation to
flaunt the flags of foreign nations in the
mayor’s face after the snub of his veto
message, and while Mr. Hewitt remains
iii oflice, the city ball will probably look
like an enlarged reproduction of Joseph's
coat, whenever the celebration of any an-
niversary affords an cxcrrsc for" decoration.
The Dnrien correspondent of the Comet
writes: One of our citizens, after partak-
ing too freely of spirits of furnieuti, took it
into his head that he owned the whole
town and had a mortgage on his wife for
$40 besides. The whole is summed up
tlrusly : He went home and had an alter-
cation with his wife. Tire result being
that after a desperate struggle she. sue.
ceeded in firing him otit doors. Being desk
per-ate and crazed with rum he broke the
door also a trunk and took $40 out of it~
His wife after some difficulty took it away
from him and with her two children went
to South Norwalk, determined never to
see her husband again, but taking a sober,
second thought returned and was wel-
comed with open arms, and everything is
now pcacful on the Potomac.
John Toolrey, who was arrested for
violating the law against keeping his
saloon open on Sundays, was given a hear-
ing before the County Commissioners on
Saturday, to show why his license should
not be revoked. Ciricf Lockwood testified
to having seen certain parties in the. saloon
on a certain Sunday, and the same parties
testified that they were not there, thus
raising a question of veracity, the decision
of which leaves our big chief apparently
“iii a hole,” for the Commissioners, by the
ingenious eloquence of the respondent’s,
attorney. Capt. Frost, were convinced that
the Officer saw things “as through a glass
darkly,” and that the other wrtnesses
were right. and they were unable to find
sufllcicnt cause for the revocation of Mr.
Toolrey’s license.
It comes pretty near being a model cs.
tablishmcnt that carries a $500,000 stock
of house furnishing goods from which you
can furnish a house completely from cellar
to gnrrct without leaving the premises,
and when such a firm advertises goods at
phenomenally low prices, or offers induce-
ments much beyond those regularly made,
you can easily perceive that they are
amply able to do just as they promise, and
where a smaller firm would lose money by
it, they would make a fair living profit on
the transaction. Many times also an
article that is absolutelyneedcd lit-home,
costs so much that families of limited
means are not able to pay for them, that
is, not cash down, so they wait and save.
for of course they want. to buy cheap.
Now it they brit knew it, delay is useless.
B. A. Atkinson & 00., whose advertise-
ment appears in another column,- and
whose establishment and stock is well
worth examination, will sell them at cash
prices, just what they want. Tire method
is simple, the total amount is divided into
a number of equal parts, u'first payment
is made down and the balance at stated
times.

ED. Gazer-rs: People in possession of
strong. healthy constitutions and good
business, do not need come to Florida ex-
cept for recreation.
And those young people not yet out of
school, have better school privileges attire
North.
There are good schools in Florida, still
it can hardly be expected that Florida
should equal Connecticut in educational
advantages. .
Brit any contemplating change of busi-
ircss or location, or, who desire to engage
iii orange or fruit growing, or any kilrd of
farming suitable to this climate. either-
cotton, long nraplc is grown licrc. tobacco
or sugarcane, etc., would do well to make
Florida a visit, and no mouths Ill't‘ better
for it than July and August, or October
and November. There is no danger on
the score of health any month of the year.
Also those who for any cause feel the
need of a mild climate. Whether age,
constitutional weakness, or the result of
accident or disease, would add yours to
tlltir life by spending seven to twelve
nronths of the year in the high pine
land of Florida.
Florida is not only the proper home for-
the aged, bill also for children, especially
the little ones. Every state is represented,
and nearly every nation.
Most of those who settle here, come for
business reasons, to better their condition,
and - usually succeed. There are some
failures, they are usually caused by over-
loading, or, more properly, attempting
more than they are able to carry out.
Many have come on account of health.
and it is rarely that 'they have failed to re-
ceive benefit, or where they have not de-
layed the coming too long, perfect cure,
especially for disorders of the throat or
lungs, blood, kidney, or liver. rlreiimrtiSm
or dyspepsia.
We sometimes hear it said Florida is
damp. The truth is quite the reverse. We
have agrcat annual rainfall, greater than
nrost parts of the United States, but moat
of it comes in showers during the summer.
Our pine hill soil being sandy, water never
remains on the surface any longer than it
would on the outside of a moderately
damp sponge, if there was room for it in-
side, excepting in the flat woods and
swamps. Tire shower over the srrn and
wind soon makes the air feel as dry as is
comfortable. One very good test of the
dryness of the atmosphere—salt, whether
in casters or not, very rarely, almost never,
shows any dampness.
- It ought not be necessary to say we
grow something besides oranges and lim—
her, but some people see to thlrik we do
not. If they would go into the markets of
our great cities east or west in proper
season, they would find the question well
answered. Nearly all the vegetables are
grown ircre at some season of the year,
the hardy sorts in the fall and winter. the
more tender in the fall and spring. It is
not easy to divide the seasons for Florida
into four. Our fall begins about October
lst and spring February 1st, in reality we
do not have any winter, though we are
liable to cool weather and sometimes frost
from middle of November to 1st March,
though we seldom have any frost after lst
February, and commonly not until after
December, sometimes not until after
January lst, and sometimes not any.
Melons grow freely; we usually have
them ripe from late in May until-October
or November. Very little oats or rye are
grown in this part of the state Corn
fields grow more and more common and
larger each sueceding year. Corn yields
about 10 bushels per here, but is so easily
cultivated it costs but little. It is planted
in February and March and harvested in
mid summer or before.
Cotton is raised to some extent, not so
extensively as in the north part of the
state and the interior. Only the long

5'0 UTII-NOR WALK.
Many strangers rode through our city
thoroughfares on Sunday, and others came
to spend the 'day'w'ith friends. A few
came on Saturday evening, and so con-
ducted themselves, as to stay in the lock-
up through the night.
Jesse Ferris and wife will probabiy‘take
possession of D’Ariois furnished cottage
on High street, some time during this
Week, where they will be at home during
the summer.
Tire fact that the names of tax-payers
who sign the rccomcnd for a lisencc is

deter somemcn from so doing. '
llarry Wilson, late a typo in .the"£mti.
net office, has left, and resumed his old
position on the railroad, where he has
plenty of pure air, and' enjoys a good
appetite.
Miss Hyatt of Bay View avenue, who
has been severely ill, is convalescing and
rode out a short distance, enjoying the
balmy air of Sunday.
C. J. Dann has removed his borne to
East Norwalk, and located in one of the
pleasant spots there to be forrrrd.
It requires but little excitement to call
together 150 or 200 persons on railroad
square, especially after the close of a ball
game. Office Hedden arrested two young
men, and successfully kept them, until
Chief Volmer came to his aid, notwith-
standing the crowding and- booting of the
mob around him, This is one of the
effects of Professional Ball playing.
At the Republican caucus to elect dele-
ates to the various conventions, held on
Saturday night, Lawyer Light and Capt.
Frost were chosen for one and Hon, C.
W. Bell and Maj. James C. Crowe to the
other. There was not a very large at-
te'ndance, neither of the local editors Were
present, but before the meeting closed,
some little enthusiasm was manifest and
it began to look as if the Republicans
Were to commence and continue the cam-
paign with earnestness and vigor..
It was very gratifying to many to knew
that Governor Lounsbury'was present in
New York at the high license convention,
taking an active part in its deliberations.
The report of that conference is very in-
teresting reading for‘ all, especially the
fanatics. — _
Honest advocates of temgerance met in
Temple of Honor Hall, on unday p. m.,
not to please the whims of any, nor to
curry favor. or gratify personal ambition,
or to win the applause of men only, but
with the grand conviction, that their work
is the work of God. and whose glor and
horroris accomplished by none but lonest
methods and righteous acts. It was con-
cluslvely shown that education on the
subject, was better and had a more im-
mediate and lasting effect, than legislation.
Rev.'Mr. Ross furnished much food for
reflection in his sermon Sunday night, on
the subject “What christianity is doing
for men, women and children."
:We are informed that there was a ball
me on one of the‘meadows, lasting near-
ly all of Sunday afternoon, and was at.
tended by more than 100 men, women and
children. We ask is this lawful? and will
it be permitted with impunity ?

.safety upright patent, capable of operating

snow on the “diggiifgs” disappeared on a
certain day. Tire ll’eslpm'tertakcs several
lines tovmaiutsiu the snow was there two
days later. Very, very important.
The formation of a highway across the
salt meadow cast of Harry Smith‘s home-
stead, connecting the Down Town road
with the road in front of the M. E. church,
Saugatuck, will make almost an air line
road from Great Marsh to the village, a
distance of nearly three miles. This is
the result sought fora few years ago by
Noah W. Bradley, the late J E. Wheeler
and others, but which was headed off in
town meeting by those who voted against
it, thinking they saw a job by which the
New Haven Railroad Were about to gain a
point attire town’s expense. That great
road comes forward now, as it manifested
a willingness to do then, and takes the
build walls and abuiments, put iron
bridges over the cut, andipay the bills for
the sake of merging two highways into
one, carryingit under the tracks, thus
cffacing one of the most dangerous grade
crossings on the line, rendering travel for
vehicles and pedestrians absolutely safe,
and settling a problem which the com-
pany and the public have been pondering
and disagreeing over ever since the road
was built. The only expense to the town
in this matter will be the grading and
fencing of the road across the meadow,
and whether great or small, will in the
opinion of fair taxpayers, be a wise one in
the end. The new layout will make an
property, but he will enjoy the peculiar
privilege of being in front, no matter to
which side of his premises be_turus. The
temporary timber has arrived, and work
will at once be commenced.
Mr. Edwin Jackson has bought a dwell-
ingin New Haven, and with his family,
