Mrs. Rob. Van Buren’s fair for the
Fresh Air fund on Friday evening, prov-
ed the generosity of the Norwalk and
South Norwalk people. The amount
realized for this excellent charity was
$225. This money goes towards a char-
ity that should, in the hot season, enlist
the support of every thinking person.
There are thousands of poor children in
New York City who are suffering for the
want of fresh air. and this amount alone
will carry hundreds to the sea side for a
day’s comfort and enjoyment. Mrs. Van
Burcn highly appreciates the liberality of
all how assisted her in this good work.

sight of the entire working force. In less
than a jiffy the table was surrounded by
journalistic talent, and the cream was
rapidly tobogganing down the delighted
necks of all, from the religious editor to
the sacrilegious devil. Iii consequence of
this slippery incident the time keeper
“docked” all hands ten minutes each.
The devil says it was mighty good cream
for the size of it.

oqneutly worded and beautifully delivered
paper on “George Sands and George El-
liot". Following this was a quartet of
male voices, led by Mr. John Treadwell
and eliciting, as did all of the preceding
portion of the programme, a hearty ap-
plause. The guests were not allowed to
take their leave until they had been served
to cake and cream, when more music fol-
lowed and the company separated, in-
wardly, if not audibly avowing that these
Club Receptions had become one of Nor-
walk’s most charming and successful fea-
tures. As was voted last summer, may
the club “live long and prosper,” and
may all'who were so favored as to be
present last Tuesday evening, ever be
counted worth “to be there.”

Prof. Fred Sibcll, of New York, was in
Norwalk Wednesday in the interest of J.
M. Hill's new and great enterprise, “The
Battle of Gettysburg.” This great paint-
ing is exhibited in a building erected
especially for it at 4th avenue and 19111 st.
and is pronounced “the grandest painting
cvcr exhibited; historically correct, dra-
matic and instructive." Tho. painting
alone cost $150,000, and is the grandest
effort of the famous French artist, Mons.
Paul Philippotcaux. No one who goes to
New York to see the sights can find great-
01' pleasure and profit than in going to see
this great work of art.
At a special meeting of the Neptune
Club, hold at the Mahuckcmo Hotel, on i
the 11th inst., the following vote was llll~
animously passed: “'l‘liai out of respect
for our late deceased brother, Henry W.
Lester, who for twenty years, was our
Vice-Commodore, that the order made at
our last annual meeting, to sail on the first
day of August, be reconsidered, and in
place thereof, such of, our members as
choose, quietly rendezvous at the usual
fishing grounds, by steamer Winthrop,
which sails direct for Cottage City, from
the foot of Market Slip, New York city,
August 1st, at five o'clock, afternoon.”

Roumania.
As soon as the result of the Chicago
convention’s deliberations became known
in Norwalk on Monday night a number of
the young men of Republican preferences
repaired to Town House bill, many of
them in gaudy campaign uniforms, and
gave vent to their patriotic feelings by
shooting off a big cannon, filling the air
with sky-rockets, colored balls of fire
from Roman candles, etc., and talking
politics with some of the opposing party
who turned out in considerable force to
witness the hullaballoo. A vigorous drum
corps contributed its noise to the general
confusion and after all the powder, .cl-
oqucncc and argument were exhausted
the young men formed a line and marched
down West avenue, led by tile drum
corps. It was the first parade of the
campaign and now that the ball has been
set to rolling, let’s all keep it up.
The youn': ladies of East avenue and
“the Green” have adopted a pretty and
effective method of enjoying a bath with-
out risk of drowning, or being bitten by
sea serpents, or any other dreadful cas-
ualty to which the surf bathcr is inevit-
ably exposed. 'Thcir method strips the
old familiar song of its absurdity:
“Mother, may I go out to swim ‘3
Yes, my darling daughter;
Hang your clothes on a hickory limb
But don’t go near the water.”
They assemble at the home of one of
their nnmbcr,liaug their clothes on the
hooks in the closet, array themselves in
their charming bathing suits and go out
on the lawn and turn the hose on one
another. They get just as wet as if they
were lit-the seashore, and have just as
much fun. They call them “hosiug par-
ties" and they are just lovely.
The programme at Miss Baird’s school
rcccptiop Tuesday was, considering every-
thing, the finest programme ever prepared
by the school, and was rendered without
a flow. The essays were particularly.
creditable to the young ladies who wrote
them. Miss Amy Cox’s on “Historical-
Reminisccuces,” displayed careful re-
search and excellent taste and was most
highly commended. Miss Marie Taggart
of Brooklyn, wrote a very pretty essay
upon High-ways and By-ways, showing
culture in the art of expressing excellent
ideas in choice language. The music was
well rendered, the exhibition in the studio
was praised by everyone and the French
play was thoroughly well learned and very,
entertaining. Miss Millie James of Na-
hant, Mass., took the history prize this
year, and Miss Louise Martin of New
York, the prize for neatncss. In the Eng-
lish branches, the 1st rank was assigned
to Miss Fannie Latimcr of Brooklyn; in
music to Miss Amy Cox of. Brookside,
Conn.; in French to Miss Louise Martin
of New York; in German to Miss Elma
Henckcl of Burlington, N. J.; in art to
Miss Louise Martin of New York. The
school property has recently been much
improved and large and valuable additions
have been made to the library.
The Woman’s Literary Club of Nor-
walk observed President’s Day on Tues
day, J unc 19th. Mrs. E. J. Hill, who on-
tertained the Club and its friends two
years ago, opened her home again for this
reception on this occasion, and the pleas-
ant memory of the former meeting, only
served to'enhance the pleasures of the
present evening. A large number of Nor-
walk’s cultured society was present, both
ladies and gentlemen and the parlors pre-
sented a brilliant appearance. The lit_
erary portion of the entertainment opened
with a piano selection exquisitely rendered
by Miss Sadie Miller and a charming
vocal solo by Miss Hubbcll “of Danbury.
The president of the club, Mrs. Henry
Bissell, then followed with a short ad-
dress of welcome and setting forth the
purposes of the club in its present organ-
ization. She closed with gracefully in-
troducing Mrs. Abby Sage Richardson
who held the attention of the crowded
The fire bug has been gettiugjn his fine
work again. Monday night at a few
minutes before eleven the fire alarm was
sounded from box number 15 and at the
same time flames were seen pouring out
of the sides and roof of the old Raymond
barn back ‘of WeekS' grocery stere on
Main strcct, belonging to the estate man-
aged by Charles Ambler of Wilton. The
department was quickly on the spot but
not quickly enough to save two horses be-
longing ‘to Grocclyman Weeks, which
were burned to death. One horse owned
by Grocerymau Stevens was saved. The
firemen made quick work of quenching
the flames and tearing down the frame_
The barn was uninsured but was not of
much value. The loss falls heaviest on
Mr. Weeks, who loses two'horses, one
worth $150 and the other $75, also about
40 bales of hay and straw, two sets of bar-
ness, etc., none of which was insured.
The fire called out a large crowd of spec—
tators, including many women.

A Nor-walk dcspatch says: Trinity
' Home, on Roton Hill South Norwalk, is
now open for the season. The home is
conducted by Holy Trinity Church of New
York city. and to it are brought the poor
women and children of the parish for
about two weeks. When one party returns
to the city another takes its place at the
home. Last year over 400 enjoyed the
benefits of the establishment, and [biases-
son, an additional building having been
secured, many more can be accommodat-
ed. The home is in charge of ii matron,
who is assisted by the teachers of the
Sunday school.
Mr. Aiiilii'Ose Hurlbuil, president of the
Central National Bank, had the novel ox—
pcriencc of being arrested Monday until"
noon in New York for attempting liH'l'tinl
through ilic gate in Grand (.‘enlrul depot.
Thcwaiting room was packed in suffocation
with waiting passengers and all was con—
fusion, in consequence of the new order of
running trains. There was much adverse
critiCism of the way the depot officials
treated the people, the officials themselves
being apparently as much “at sea” as the
passengers. Mr. Hurlbuit had no difll .
culty in gaining his liberty when be ex-
plaincd the aggravating circumstances.

A New Time Table.
The time table of the New York, New
Haven and Hartford Railroad which will
go into effect on J une 25 will in amcnsure
revolutionize the present passenger ser-
vice, and .will be a feature iii railroading.
Trnvcl has so for increased as to justify
the establishment of trains for different
classes of travellers, and just as soon as
the four trucks are completed a more lib-
eral service than that to- go into effect
June .25 will be provided by the company.
In dividing passengers into classes of
travelers and in providing independent
accommodations for each class, the com-
pnny realize that it is just' as important to
transport the people of Bridgeport and
Hartford, for example, at. their convcn-
ieucc to and from the metropolis as it is
the pcOplc of Mount Vernon and other
places situated nearer New York. To ac-
complish not only this end, but also to
provide better service for the people going
through Connecticut and on to Boston, the
company propose to establish hourly scr-
vicc from New York, beginning at 5 a. m.
and including 6 p. in. Trains Will be run
in sections, and in some cases there Will
be as many as four sections to a train.
The first section leaving on the hour will
make the longest run, and so on. For in—
stance, of the train leaving New York at 4
p. m. the first section will run on its way
to Boston via Springfield from New York
to New Haven without a stop, the second
to Bridgeport without a stop and from
there up the Naugatuck Division to Win-
sted ; the third section will make certain
important stops in New ‘York and Con-
nccticut, reaching New Haven twenty
minutes later than the first section, while‘
the fourth section will be an accommoda-
tion train between New York and New
Haven, stopping at all stations, serving
not only for passengers from New York
but also from way stations to New Haven
to take the next express for the East.
Willi the block signal system now in
operation on the trunk line of this road
trains can be run with perfect security
within five minutes of each other. To the
requirements of the through passenger
traffic between New York and Boston the
contemplated changes will also be better
adapted. The company falls in with the
prevailing notion that there is no reason
why travellers from New York to Boston
or vice vcrsa should be compelled to stop
at any intermediate stations before reach-
ing their destination. Partly to meet this
demand is the new schedule adopted.
The new arrangement will also serve the
public better while awaiting the departure
of their trains. As is well known, the
waiting rooms in the Grand Central depot
are inadequate in size.
Under the new plan of running in Sec-
tions passengers will be admitted to their
trains much earlier than heretofore, and
consequently will thus relieve the Whiting
rooms. '
The through express trains will leave
New York and Boston via N. Y., N. H.
and H. R. IL, and connecting roads at the
following hours: At 9 a. in. via B. and
A.; at 10 a. in. via Shore line and N. Y.
and N. E.; at 11 a. in. via B. and A.; at 1
p. m. via Shore line; at 3 p. m. via N. Y.
and N. E; at 4 p. m. via B. and A.; at 5
p. m via Shore line; at 11 p. in. via B.
and A.; at 11.30 p. in. via Shore line and
N. Y. and N. E.
Under this arrangement the trains now
leaving New York for Boston, and Boston
for New York via Springfield at 4.30 p.m.,
will start at 4 p. m., and a new express
train half an hour later than the old one,
namely at 5 p. in. via Providence and New

one or more will make no stops between
New Haven and New York, water for the
engines being taken from a trough in the
middle of the track located just beyond
Stamford. The new engines built by the
Baldwin Locomotive Works which Will be
used on these trains have all the appli—
ances for taking water while going at al—
most full speed.
It is generally understood that a new
passenger traffic will go into effect on all
divisions of the road 'on July 1, which will
correct the inconvenience caused by the
present use of pennies. This will be done
by reducing some fares 1 or 2 cents and
adding to others, so that thefare in most
cases will be a multiple of five. The

Q
How Thurman Will Run.
A prominent democrat ofithis state, in
the course of a recent interview. said:
“Thurman will run like a scared wolf.”
Another equally prominent member of
the party, when cornered by a reporter
the same day, made this statement: “I
consider that Thurman will run like a
steer through acorn-field." One of the
leading party ' organs of Ohio says editor-
ially: “There cannot be a particle of'
doubt but that the Old Roman will run
like a out through a dog show.” Another,_
an influential Missouri sheet, says in a
double-leaded leader: “When it comes
to the election, Thurman will run likea
jack-rabbit.” This alone would show
that there is a serious division in the par-
ty, but it is, not all. AweilknoWn Dem-
ocratic governor of a neighboring state
says: “Thurman will go through the
canvass like butter throughatin horn.”
“The nomination of Thurman," announc-
cs 11 Chicago paper, in well modulated
tones, “was a good one. He will in our
opinion, go through a.shouting and a-fiy-
ing." A prominent Texas congressman,
with that luxuriancc of expression pecu-
liar to the state, tells a reporter that the
“Old Roman is a‘ man from away up
where the creek forks the last time. He
will snap into the canvas like a dog into
a rabbit skin, and the he’ll fight ’cm like
a wild cat in a tin oven. When Thurman
gets up and cracks his heels together and
goes at it red eyed, they’ll find that he's a
bumper from Humper’s Junction and that
he’ll sweep the country from Maine to
sundown. In my opinion he has the ele-
ments of success in him bigger than wood-
chnck." A |Boston paper just received
closes the exercises to date by trying, in
classic accents: “He will run like a man
bit by a jointed snake.”—-Tribune.

The rcccntitem in this column to the
effect that Nelson Alvard, Sr., of Green’s

which was spoken of by many who knew
Ma. Alvard, as premature, turns out. to be
strictly true. The family of the departed,
from the first said the Gszs'r'rs was cor-
rect. as far as it went, but its story told
only about one half the facts in the case?

Mr. Alvard has gone never to return.
That Westport harbor and Saugutuck
river are navigable for craft drawing
much water was last week shown by the
fact that the , schooner Maggie Ellen,
Captain Littlcjohn, from Randolph, Me.,
with 225,000 feet of timber and 1,000
bundles of lath for Staples & Raymond,
was able to reach the firm’s lower wharf
in front of Capt. W. C. Staples residence,
without rafting a portion of her cargo.
The Maggie was drawing over ten feet,
but, lasing advantage of a perigee tide.
Capt. Littlejohn floated majestically right
up to destination. The spread of her
cargo along the wharf is so great that
people who don’t understand it are asking
how it is possible for one schooner to
bring so much at one time.
Descendants to the number of twenty
and many neighbors and friends were pres-

suggest very pleasantly that they who
think enough of their native town to pass
their entire lives in it, and towards the
close sec in it more beauties than ever, as
this aged couple have done, are worthy of
all honor. For them the occasion had an
added feature of interest—the marriage of
their grand daughter Miss Minnie Putney
to Stephen Morris Jr., of Oyster Bay, L.
1., the bride’s father, Rev. R. S. Putney,
of Ansonia performing thezceremony. Af-
tcr congratulations, the young couple fol-
lowed by their guests proceeded to the
dinning room where a feast of reason and
flow of soul, told how ardent hopes, were
for the future health and happiness of all.
Both the aged. and more youthful brides
were favored by gifts in character and
kecking with the happy epochs in their
respective histories.

Advice to Mothers.
—-Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup, for
children teething, is the prescription of
one of the best :female nurses and phy-
sicians in the United States, and has been
used for forty years with never-failing
success by millions of mothers for their
children. During the process of teething
its value is incalculable. It relieves the
child from pain, cures dysentery and
diarhoca, griping in the bowels and wind-
colic. By giving health to the child
it rests the mother. Price 25 cents a

Norwalk, Like Stamford, is waking up
to the poor condition of its roads. Now
let. Greenwich follow suit by taking the
lead and doing something. If all the
shore towns could be induced to build a
boulevard from one to the other, it would
be a splendid thing. There is no reason
why a magnificent boulevard could not be
built from Bridgeport to New York, if
the people in the towns would take hold
of the project—'— Graphic.
