The children of New York. including
many children of a larger growth, are
mourning the death of “Remus Crowley.”
the famous chimpanzee of Central Park.
“Mr. Cr‘owley,” as‘ he was always respect-
_ fully called, was born in Africa, and was
brought to this country four years ago by
‘John Henry Smythe, formerly. our min—-
later to Liberia. Immediately on his ar—
rival in New York “Mr. Crowley" was
taken into general popularity. Hewas
made a ward of the city, elected an hon-
orary member of several clubs and his
health'wae as carefully looked after as if
he had been a human being. H! was a
keen. intelligent animal, and Darwin
would have delighted in studying the com-
plex emotions clearly reflected on his
open countenance. In appearance "‘Mr.
Crowley" bore a ludicrous resemblance to
the traditional fighting Irishman, as we"
see him on the stage and in John Tenniel’s
cartoons in ,Punch. He had , about half
reached maturity, being in the fifth year
of his age. ' ' » _
Frank Smith, colored,age.l 23, has lecn
employed for some time on a farm in Wil-
ton. On Saturday night last he cameto
Norwalk, got drunk, and was last seen. alive
at about midnight. At an early hour Sun-
‘out. A few new songs have also been add- _
ed. Of the first edition, 25,003 copies'
day morning his dead body was discovered
on the track beside the depot platform just
below the tunnel, cut, bruised and mangled
in a sickening manner. 'The right leg had
been run over: at the hip and the left leg cut
completely '03 below the knee. The back of
his head was crushed in and the scalp was
terribly torn on top. The generally accept-
ed theory of the afiair is that ‘ Smith at‘
tempted to jump on the Wilson Point freight
train going north at about 2 o’clock a. m.,
which went through at full speed, making
no stop, and that he was thrown under the
wheels in attempting to get aboard. He
had evidently been thrown and tumbled
several feet, as blood and pieces of flesh and
bone were scattered along the track for quite
a distance. Undertaker Jennings took
charge of the body which was buried at the
expense of {the town, Smith having no rela-
tives able to’bear the expense, his only liv-
ing relative being a sister. .

_ clearly allied and so inevitable.
The tables have turned. “Poor man has
. been suffering 'long - enough. He strikes
back. This particular one leaves in Min—
neapolis. He has sued a trifling woman
for ten-thousand dollars for blighting his
afiectioue.‘ ln a leap years. girl can pro—
pose, but a man cap sue. This is the right
sort of reciprocation. And yet the poor
man will not get'his ten thousand, nor ten

will never succeed until iliere are female
juries. _
Thellarthrd ,I’osl makes a strong point
against the free trade claim that we ’can-
not expect to sell our. wheat and beef in
Europe unless we import manufactured
. goods in rcturn,by showing that, while we
buyzcach year of Brazil more than $50,-
000,000 worth of coffee, admitting it free
,‘of duty, we sell almost nothing to that
country; and England, which derives a
larger revenue on coffee, gets the lion’s

"‘certainl y does not he through free trade.’

and was allowed to go to New York on
his regular trip on, the boat, in the keep-
ing of Capt. Byxbec, to man the result of
Tuttle's injuries?" He will probably be
brought back to day and held formurdcr.
Tuttle was a harmless, well-meaning man,
but dreadfully damaged on the subject of
religion, and many words of sympathy are
heard for his tragic and untimely death.
1 Last October the Bridgeport Farmer re.
lated the story of a German count who
having left hometo avoid military service

vord of Green’s Farms. It told how the
death of his father had induced him to re.
turn to Germanyiwliere a considerable
fortune awaited him, but could only be

itary service. Now it comes out with a
new chapter in the story. On his return
to Germany be effected a compromise by
which he-redeived part of the property and
again leftthe country. What he got was

“ He had a little faith in their value, but
matters probably turned out better than

valuable presents have since been received
by Mr. Alvordof Green’s Farms. He is
now superintending the Fulda gold mines

Pall Business Opened at the D. I. Read
- Co’s.
Every now and then a chance is given
the merchant to secure some line of goods
that the‘msuufacturer is willing to sacri-
fice. in order to introduce. This is the
case with the five qualities of black silk
which the D. M. Read Co. have on their
counters today. A new make, a grand,
good quality, and at very low price. This
in connection with the colored rhadames
.-
‘which they are selling, give their silk and
dress goods department a busy trade.
They have opened their first invoice of
seal plush garments. Although early,
they do this in order to give customers an
opportunity to select before the season’s
business commences. A deposit can be
made 'and the’ garment can thus be secured
while the early selection prices are offered.
The sale of, selled blankets commands at ~
tention for a slight discoloring makes a
vast difference in prices.»
The large space devoted entirely to the
showing‘of-metlngs-und draperies is far
more attractive just_now than at’any’other
time. Royal Miltons, Axministers, m0»
quettes,’ bodyl 'bru'ssells, tapestries and
extra supers of superior designs and color-
ings are being continually matched up; all
have boarders to correspond. No matter
what the room, be it parlor, libraryorbed-
room, suitable patterns can be selected
from this vast assortment which they
show. Flushes, spun silks, velours, Moor-
ish and ancoman curtains, gimps, cords
and lassels canbe seen in the upholstery
department, together with Kensington art
squares, Smyrna and Koula rugs of differ-
ent sizes. Furnishing a house is an easy
