The announcement that the Rev. Col.
Anderson. has resigned his pastorate of
the Congregational church will be received
with sincere regret by the whole commu—
nity, regardless of creed or condition.
His letter of resignation has been in the
hands of the committee since the, early
part of August, but few knew of its exist-
ence or ofthe Colonel’s intention until
quite recently. His action is deemed ad-
visable by reason of Mrs. Anderson’s con-
.tinued feeble health, and his own throat
trouble which gives no promise of ever
being better in this air and climate. The
Colonel informs us that he has as yet no
settled plans for the immediate future.
He may possible‘return to the West where
he had become acclimated, by a residence
of many years, and whence he has receiv-
ed a number of flattering “calls,” or he
may go to Europe foralong stay. His
letter asks that the resignation take effect
about the first of next year. Wherever
the Colonel may go, he will carry with
him the assurance of the steadfast love
and veneration of this community, regard.

There needs to be a change made in the

which it. had twentynfive years ago even.
—Bridgeport Post.
That a change in the time of holding the
County Fair, might improve the chances
of securing a week of fair weather, many
friends of the venerable institution do be-
lieve. It was urged at the meeting which
fixed the date that the last week in Sept.
would be a better week and the result has
provca that it would have been, but the
majority thought it too close upon the
Daubury Fair. Despite the rain, however
this year's fair was a 'pronounced success.
There were single exhibits in the hall worth
double the price of admission to the whole
fair, to see. Take that show of fifty jars
of preserves and pickles exhibited by Mrs.
Whitney of Wilton, as a sample. No one
ever saw a more exquisite array in this
line of the culinary art. That there are
evils that need extirpation is only too well
known, but the millenium has not yet ar-
rived and a vast improvement has been
made under President Hoyt’s administra-
tion in the moral aspects of the exhibition,
if unlimited whiskey was clandestiuely
dispensed in the President’s marque. If,
however, Bridgeport can and will do bet-
ter than Norwalk, few here will complain
at the fair's removal over to the Queen
City, though the Post must remember that
to get the grounds and conveniences the
society has here, would cost Bridgeport
another one hundred thousand dollars.

happier argument was ever so felicitously
expressed as that where Harrison has said
that free-traders are students of maxims
rather than of markets. Proceeding to con-
dense the history of tariffs in this country
into a few sentences, he declared that the
country under a low tariff has never
prospered; that the country never recovered
from a financial disturbance caused by a low
tariff until a protective one had been
enacted; and that the democratic party has
never failed to demand the repeal of protec-
tive tariflis when in power since the time

A Plain Statement of Fact.
President Cleveland, aided by his lieu-
tenant free trader, Mr. Roger Quintius
Mills, has seen fit to attack our woolen 'in-
dustries in the interest of England
and other foreign nations. This import-
ant branch of our country’s prosperity
keenly feels the effect of this unjust at-
tack. The farmers as a result, have al.
ready lost more than $15,000,000 on their
wool this year, and the woolen mills, wrth
few exceptions, have been able to secure
only about one-half the amount of orders
from the disturbing trade which they need
for the current season, or which were

. The Press believes that it is within
bounds when it prophesies that more than
one-half of the woolen machinery now
running on goods for men’s wear will be
silent, making more than 50,000 idle work-
men within sixty days if Grover Cleveland
is elected. Labor must surely bear its
share of the blow. A dearth of orders al-
ready exists as the direct result of the
President's message and the agitation ’of
the Mills bill. This fact no theory of-
Cleveland’s can explain away. Neither
the manufacturer nor the distributor can
afford to carrya pound or a yard of un-
necessary woolen stufis in his stock in
view of the catastrophe which must fol-
low Clevcland’s election.
The decision, wage earners, is in your
hands. You are the arbiter. Dozyouldecide
for Harrison, protection and employment,
or for Cleveland, free trade and the inevi-
table idleness of yourself and fellow work-
men in the great woolen industries of this

Sunday last. and, accepted the invitation
choosing the subject, “What I saw and
heard in South Norwalk." He was-intro—
duced by Rev. Delano and retained with
much cordiality, but as he proceeded in
reading from his manuscript, signs of un-
casiness were apparent among the prohibi-
tionists and as he proceeded he was sev—
eral times flatly contradicted by some of
the members, but proved his assertions
were true by giving day and date. Mr.

A SUMMER HOTEL.
A Man Who Proposes to Keep .. Quiet
House—Bis Plans.
“I’m setting out to keep a summer hotel for
decent people, not: for bores, and I contend
there are enough decent people in need of
just such a house as I intend to keep to sup-
port mo in my enterprise. I am not build-
ingftmy house for the sort of people who set:
out'in July for six or eight; weeks’ search
after what they call a good time (i. 0., un-
limited noiso and rocket from sunrise till
midnight). I’m getting it ready for just the
opposite class —see?”
“I see, and I believe you’re about; on the
right; track.” _ ,
“I reckon I am. Now, I’m going to run
over a few of the things that I’m not going
to have. I’m not going to have a single
transom in my housel” .
“What! no ventilation?”
“Bah! ventilationl What thoughtful,
cleanly person wants the ventilation from a
hotel. corridor, with forty other people’s
breaths all running in and out; of his room
on the heavy air? No, sir; open the win-
dows-no transoms, and no doors that. will
open or shut unless the knobs are turned. In
my house you can’t slam a door if you want
to; and no waxed floors; halls, corridors and
staircases all thickly carpeted and padded;
no windows that stick and no bureau draw-
ers that won’t open; and no soap left smooth
after the last occupant of a room; and no
beds that creek; and no office bells ringing
and jangling all night and all day; and no
guests awakened at down because some one
next door wants to be ‘called.’ I’ve invented
an electric call apparatusjrom the office that
. I’ll warrant to woken th‘e dead—but not; the
wrong man or the neighbor. And no stars
and moons and tags hanging on the door

they come up to bed at midnight,- and no all
night; electric lawn lights to shine in your
eyes and keep you awake until morning; and
no croquet or tennis grounds near the house
to disturb people who are nervous with after-
noon games; and no toothpicks on the tables
or in the office or anywhere.” '
“Why, I thought they were a. national in-
stitution.” '
"I don’t blame you. Well, if they are I’ll
denationalize them, that’s all. And no dark
,wall papers—no wall papers at all; clean,
fresh painted, light colored walls that can bo
washed with good soap and water; had no
waitresses or chambermaids with frizzes
and bangs—they’ve got to have smooth,
parted hair and neat caps and aprons, al-
ways. No hammocks on the piazzas to
squeak and creek; they’ll be swung at a dis-
tance. No baby carriages wheeled up and
down on the verandas, either, no matter how
rainy the day. No lawn mowers to begin
operations just at nap time. And if any
young men or boys come to the house who

How a Cabman Was Fooled.
The life of a hackman is not always a. bed
of roses, although he does ride around all
day while others have to walk. A few.
[nights ago a'veteran “cabby” related this
sad story of man’s'dnplicity. He was hailed
bya. well dressed gentleman, who inquired
his price by the hour, and as the amount was
satisfactory the “fare” jumped into the car—
riage and was driyen to one of the up town‘
theatres, enjoining the driver to wait until
his return. 'At the expiration of the per-
formance the young man appeared, accom-
panied by a. friend, and together they were
driven to a restaurant, where they took sup-
per. Tho supper consumed probably an
hour, and then the faithful driver was told
totako the pair to the residence of one of
them, where the guest; alighted, and, slam-
ming the door with a bang, told the driver
to go to a. certain address and take the other
man home. He did so, driving as slowly as
pessible, and finally arrived before the house
designated.
As it was late and the night was fair, the
cabman, being more or less of a philosopher,
thought as he was engaged by the hour he
would not awaken the gentleman inside, who
appeared to have gone to sleep, but would
light his pipe and smoke for half an honr'or
so, with the consciousness that: he was mak-
ing money all the time and not; disturbing
the slumbers of his tired friend. Half an
hour passed and still no movement; was felt
by the driver on the box. Finally he began
tube ulittle anxious, and opening the car-
riage found to his dismay that it was empty.
The pretended sleeper had quietly stolen
away while the mind of the driver was fixed
on other subjects. He never sleeps now, and
is keeping a sharp lookout for that man.—

Contagion Among Ship Passengers.
“Suppose, doctor, we take the case of a.
steamer carrying from 1,000 1501,5300 ,steeragc
passengers; could disease breakout among
them and remain undiscovered until the ship
reached quarantine?” '
“Certainly, arid that is where the danger
comes in. It is a. well knownfi cht thatpas .
sengcrs who become affected with a s'uSpi-
cious disease will take every means to keep
the knowledge of it from the officers. This
is done.through fear of being sent to the hos-
pital on arrival, and the majority of conta-
gious diseases on board ship are only discov-
ered when the passengers come before the
boarding officer. And here, too, they will
pass unless the evidence of the disease is so
marked as to call attention to them, for if.
but one minute’s examination were given to
each individual it would take just twenty-
five hours to pass 1,500, and hundreds of
times ships receive free Ix‘atique after only a.
couple of hours’ delay. Thus it is easy to see
how mild cases of varioloid are liable to slip
by quarantine; but what is infinitely worse,
the whole 1,500 who [have been within the
area of infection scatter throughout the land,
every one of them a possible source of in-
fection of the disease.”—Brooklyn Eagle.
A Couple of Dog Stories.
Talking of dogs, I should tell you that
London is celebrated for curious dogs. Here
are a couple of stories I can vouch for. In
St. Martin’s lane there sits every day an old
blind man who lmits nets. Between his feet;
sits a bright little Scotch terrier. If you toss
him a penny he catches it deftly in his mouth
and puts his nose in his owner’s hand. The
blind man utters his thanks and drops the
money in a bag he wears around his neck.
In the. evening the ,dog leads his master
home, and through some of' the most crowded
thoroughfares, too. .
Nelson is the celebrated dog of. Seven
Dials. He is always pointed out to visitors.
He got his name from having lost: a foot at
some disturbance at Trafalgar square. He
always buys his own food. When any one
givm Nelson a penny and he is hungry he
goes to a butcher’s or a. bakeris shop, as his
appetite-dictates, and placing the coin on the
counter receives a piece of meat or a roll.
If he has received more pennies than he
' needs for the day he buries the surplus and
sits on his treasure all night. I knew you
would laugh at that, for I did so until I saw
him do ik—Mnrshall P. Wilder in New York
