shown a wonderful surplus of energy,

The secret of all the Democratic row in
New York is the fact that the local and
state patronage is worth twice as much as
the- national patronage. And between
harmony and liominy those New York
politicians are for the hominy every time.
You Phou Lee, a graduate of Yale, who

President Clark of the Consolidated
road says he thinks all the recent crop of
railroad rumors are intended to foster
speculation. One of the rumors alluded
to is the statement that the New. York &
New England and the New York & Con-

combined, and will lay another track from
New York to New Harem—Bridgeport

This year the Dallblll‘y fair is more cm-
pliatically than ever the biggest show on
earth and is attracting more people than
ever-to see it. The exhibition itself is
pronounced the best in every department
ever given by the society. Old Prob., as
usual, shows a decided prejudice in favor
of the big Beantowu festival and smiles
upon it with pleasant weather. lluudrcds
of Norwalkers have been in attendance.
Big Dinners.—Evcry day in this city

entire absence of thoserunpleasant feelings

tinue in their improper course of eating
big dinners without fear. Only one little

The Meriden & Cromwell road has ex-
tended its line from Meriden to Water-
bury, making a connection with the New

New Haven & Hartford, seems to have
been given up for the present, at least.
The fall opening of mlllinery goods at
the tasty little store of Miss Agnes Fitch

admiring attention of every passer-by who
has an eye for the beautiful. ’

The ll ashington correspondent of the
Tribune says; “It is in order to remark
that such is the condition of the postal
service that Republicans in Washington
who desire to communicate with the Na-

their letters by express or by especial
messenger.”

General Harrison is not the friend of la-
bor. He is a cold, unfeeling aristocrat.
He voted in congress every ,time for the
admission of the Chinese, and during the
railroad strikes of 1877 he said a dollar a
day was enough for the workingmau, and
that the strikers ought to be shot down
like dogs. The labor organizations of
Harrison’s own state are against him, and
the laboring men of this state should have
too much self respect and regard for their
own interests to vote for him—Telegram.
One of the interesting incidents of Mon-
day’s town election was the defeat of John
Kirkliam, the lieutenant-governor, for the
Miles of town clerk in his own home town of
Newington. And Newington a Democratic
stronghold, too I John, it is but a for-elastic
of November 6.—'Watei-bury Herald.
Another curiosity of politics is the fact
that the democrats of Norwalk have selected
as a delegate to their senatorial convention
an out and out Harrison man. “Queer dings,
dem politim.” .
Mr. Stockbridge made a good point in
his speech when he said : "
“In the years from 1848 to 1860, under
a low tariff, .there was but a single year
when the balance of trade was in our
favor. Undera protective tarifi‘, if you
take the last thirteen years, you will find
but one in which it has been against us."
This is the lesson of history. A tariff
for revenue only is not a protective of any
kind to American industries and American
trade.
Many people speak of Canada as a very
small place. They do not know that it is
larger than the United States. Its area is
3,510,000 square miles, while -that of our
country is 3,025,510 square miles. Only
by counting the 577,390 vsquare miles of
Alaska can we get ahead of our northern
neighbor in extent. In everything else,
of course, we are considerably ahead.
Canada, for instance, has only about one—
tenth of our population. and'less than one.
tenth of our revenue.
The marriage of Mr. Asa H. ‘ Wilcox,
secretary of the Norwalk branch of the
Y. M. C. A., and Miss Fannie A. Tet-wil—
liger of Ellenville, N. Y., was solemntmd
at the latter town on Thursday last. Their
”at home” announcements invite friends
to No. 30 Franklin avenue,-No_rwulk, after

of friends during his residence In "Nor -

Few pleasanter events have occurred
during the year than the informal recep-
tion extended to George Bancroftythe his.
torian, on his eighty-eighth birthday, ,last
Wednesday. He was brighter, more vig-
orous, and felt younger than on the same
day a year ago. Age brings to this vet-
eran writer the maximum of its pleasures,
with the minimum of its troubles. Surely,
he must. have led an irreproacliable life to
be so serenely happy At eighty-eight.
The Brooklyn Eagle states that. Mrs.
Elizabeth Tilton is becoming blind. She

Verily President Clevelanddras a hard
road to travel. The fight in New York is
full of discomfort and trouble for him.
Not even Dan Lamont's peaeemaking can
allay the outbreak. The” Hill Democrats
are in charge. They demand an endorseL
ment from the White House. Yesterday's
New York Sun had a double-leaded edi—
torial calling for “a word that will drive.
the Mugwump 'sneaks from theirlast ditch
.of their lying hypocrisy and fill the hearts
of the New York Jdemocracy with fresh
encouragement and hope."
The Washington correspondent of ' the
Hartford Courant wires the following:
“The work of the Republican commit-
tee shows the most thorough and latchi-
gent work ever submitted on the subject
of tarifi revision. This a pears upon a
customary examination. here is general
satisfaction over the result among all Re-
publicans. While some would have been
better pleased if some rates which affect
them locally had been slightly different,
there is no dissent from the proposition
that it would have been impossible in the
time which was available to have prepar-
ed a'bill which would constitute a better
or more popular party measure.
A Washington firm has had an adver-
tisement standing for several do it, saying
they have 88,000 to bet against 10,000 or
any part of it that Cleveland would not be
elected, also $2,500 against 82,000 that»
Connecticut will go Republican.”
The J. A. Haverlcy company brings out
all the accessories of Uncle Tom’s Cabin
in such a realistic manner, that, it proves
of powerful interest all the way through.
Nothing is omitted, that adds to the
naturahiess of this drama of real life.
Each individual important character in the
play is strongly brought out. Uncle Tom,
Topsy, Little’Eva, Cousin Ophelia, Maria,
Simon Legree and St. Clair are parts all
rendered true to life, and in a way to leave
little room for criticism. The‘hounds
perform an important part in the rendition
of this thrilling drama, the omission of
which would destroy much of the realism
of the presentation. The music, scenery
——in fact, everything and every person,
belonging to this company, add to and
assist in combining into a whole the
strongest and first presentation of “Uncle
Tom’s Cabin” that I ever witnessed.—
Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe.
An absurd rumor has gained publicity
to the effect that Philip Palhdino, the con-
demned murderer, who was hanged in
Bridgeport on Friday, escaped paying the
penalty of his crime through a trick of his
spiritual adviser, and that he is now
secreted near that city. The GAzETTE re-
porter saw the body after the physicians
pronounced him dead, so there's an end
of the idiotic story.
The Sugar Trust has closed out two
more refineries to enhance its dividends.
and perhapstlie amount contri-
buti d to the Democratic compsigu fund.
Six hundred men have been thrown out
of employment, but the Trust does not
care for men, only for measures like the
Mills bill, for instance. Perhaps the Sen-
ate bill, with its mortal blow at the Trust.
will open the eyes of the people to their
real interests. ' .
A reporter of the Philadelphia Record,
who was anxious to know how far the ex.
pressed desire of Mrs. Cleveland in regard
tothe abandonment of the bustle had been
observed in that city, took up a position,
corner of Thirteenth and Chestnut streets,
the other day, and noted results as follows
in one hour: No bustle,24; bushel-sized
bustle, 18; moderate-sized bustle, 87; small
sized bustle, 92; couldn’t tell whether it
was bustle or_not, 64.
The latest concern to enter the flowery
and feathery field of millincry art, is fully
up to the older ones in the taste and skill
shown in its preparation for the grand fall
opening. We refer to the firm composed
of Mrs. H. C. Allen and Mrs. Ms; L.
Adams at 5 Main Street. They announce
and displays splendid line of goods, in
pattern hats, round hats, novelties, etc.
and ask the ladies to consider this public
invitation as coming direct, as they shall
issue ‘fno cards."
U. S. Treasurer Hyatt came home yester
day to attend the annual meeting of the
Norwalk Horse Railway Co. Why would
it. not. be a good time also to consider the
question of a double track to the New Haven
depot, and the construction of a new line to
,Winniparik and on East avenue. These
improvements are imperatively required by
the public, and as existing charters for the
East avenue and Winnipauk routes expire
next year, a new company will be organized
and build the new roads if the old company
does not. '
When Mr. Lincoln made his visit to
General Grant’s camp at. City Point, Va.,‘
in 1864, he was met by the General and his
staff, and, upon being asked how he was,
said: “I am not feeling well. I got pretty
badly shaken up on the bay coming down,
and am not altogether over it yet.” “Let
me send for a bottle of champagne for you,
Mr. President,” said one of the staff officers;
I “that. is the best remedy I know of for sea-
sickuess.” “No, no, my young frien ,” said
Mr. Lincoln; “I’ve seen many a man in my
time seasick ashore from drinking that very
article. _
The whale which was caught of! Cape
Cod last June and exhibited in a number
of the principal cities along the coast, is
now lying aiongside the dock in the rear
of the Lockwood building, on a big barge,
where it is visited by large numbers, and
where lt_will remain two or three days.
It is of the fin-back variety, measuring 65
feet in length and weighing 75 tons. A
brief and interesting descriptive lecture is
given all visitors, by Prof. W. A. Dande-
10, who was late lecturer with Orrin
Brothers’ Aztec Fair and Mexican Village,
and also at the Old London Stredt The-
atre, Broadway.
Mr. Arthur Earle at Colorado Springs,
has secured a new and interesting pet
since the departure of his wife and baby.
To while away his lonesomeness he Went
hunting up the show capped mountains of
the 'silver state, shooting three or four-
deer and killing two beers and capturing
’a four months old cub, which now makes
things generally pleasant in his back yard

Philip'l’allidlno, the Italian who mur-
dered his brother at Bridgeport last June,
was hanged in the Bridgeport jail last
Friday forcuoon at exactly 10:89, in the
presence of about 100 doctors, deputy
sheriffs and newspaper men. He ascend-
ed the steps leading to the scaffold, sup-
ported ou either side by Rev. Fathers Leo
of Winsted and Murphy of Bridgeport and
followed by High Sheriff, R. L. Clarkson
and three deputies. WhenSherif! Clark-
son sprung the trap the doomed man fell
the distance of eight feet when the rope
tightened and as it came taut with a jerk,
the black cap fell from his head,disclostng
the poor wretch’sfeatures and the spec-
tators saw the eyes open and shut once
convuhively before the cap was replaced
The only visible struggle was an occasion-
al shrug of the shoulders and he was pro-
nounced dead in just twelve, minutes,
from strangulation, the neck not being
broken. ‘ Hewas in his 25th year.
‘ The Dinbnry fair last Week was, as it
always is, a stupendous success, although
the attendance was somewhat less than
last year. owing undoubtedly ‘ to the
threatening weather of the second day and .
the merciless rain of the last day. The

. Obituary.
The past week there has passed away
from earth to the life eternal, two of Nor-
walk's oldest residents. “Uncle Gnomes"
A. RAYMOND, as he was familiarly known,
died at his old home near Calf-pasture
beach, East Norwalk, full of years and
rich in the legacy of an upright, godly life
and the affectionate esteem of all who
knew him. “Uncle HENRY anee," as
he was universally called, departed to the
beyond, when but a dozen years short of
a century of earthly ,life, and departing,
has left behind a long and useful life of
upright endeavor and the grateful memory
of a quiet, genial and truly honest nature.
For more than a half century had “Uncle
Henry" been a consistent member of St.
Paul’s church, and almost his last words,
when he knew that the end was. near,
were. “I have always tried to live justly
and if ever I have failed, I thank my God
that it was not an error of my heart, but
the fault of my poor head.” Quiet and
unobtrusive and shrinking from the public
gaze, as were both these lives, yet dying,
the testimony can be borne of both denied
to many of the great and hated sons of
earth, thatin their heartstsnd lives each
proved himself to be “tlrelnoblest work of
God" AN noun MAN.
, The mun Murder”.
The crime for which Philip Pallsdlno
was hanged in the Bridgeport jail Fri-
day is thus related by the Morning News
of last Friday :_ . .
The crime for which Pallidino is to be
hung is the killing of his brother Francis-
co in cold blood. 0n the evening of June
. 22nd, after the two brothers had finished
their daily, labors, at Pierce’s quarry, and
were returning home, they had a few hot
words about some money matters. It
seems that about a year before that time,
Philip had sent his brother, who was ,in
Italy, the sum of $40 to try his passage to
this country. After rank arrived he
promised to repay him. He soon secured
work and by dilligent savin managed to
pay him 820 on account. t was the bal-
ance of the money that Philip was always
dunning his brother for and that caused
the quarrel on the evening in question.
They had gone but a short distance from
the seenepf their toils when Philip drew
a 38 calibre revolver from his pocket and
began firing on Francisco. Tire first shot
grazed his ear and he turned to run. As
he did so another shot struck him in the
back and felled him to the ground. A
crowd of the Italians who were working
at the uarry heard the shots and ran to
where ranciaco had fallen. Philip, after
gazing at his brother in the prostrate state
for a moment, ran. As darkness was ap—
proaching he was enabled to make good
his cecape. The wounded brother was
removed to a house near there, where he
died [a few hours later. Philip was hunt-
ed dowu, arrested and brought before the
September term of the superior court one
gar ago. He was tried before Judge
ardsley, found guilty after the jury had
been out but three-quarters of an hour,
and sentenced on the 23rd of the mouth
to be hanged Oct. 5th, this year. When
the jury returned the verdict of guilty of
murder in the first degree Pallidino said
he didn’t care it ~-— —. He was then
removed to the jail, where he has been
confined ever since. His fruitless attempt
to try to foil the gallows, by acting insane,
is still fresh in the minds of the public and
needs no further mention.
Yesterday afternoon a New reporter
visited the jail, and by the kindness of
Turnkey Seofield was admitted to the cell
room where the condemned man has
spent his last 15 months. The prisoners
at the time were out in the hall for their
regular afternoon’s exercise; some were
walking about the corridors, others were
quietlfi conversing with each other, while
two— taufiel, the- Newtown murderer,
and Scheele, the New Canaan murderer,
not awaiting death—were quietl playing
a game of checkers. But Pall dino, the
subject of this article, stood idly in front
of his cell leanin against the hard railing,
and gazing blau ly through one of the
windows to the inviting teen outside.
When the reporter and turn ey approach-
ed him, his sad thoughtful reverie was
disturbed by a question from the letter.
“How do you feel today, Philip f" asked
Mr. Scofivld. Thereivvas no response, but
oply a look that spoke volumes. It told of
that terrible gnawing on. his mind and
how deeply he realizes his predicament.
As he did not feel disposed to answer, the
reporter and the turnkey passed on. Dur-
ing the conversational the reporter with
Mr. Seofield the latter said that Pallidino
talks but little. Although he can speak
but a few words in English, he never says
much even in his own tongue when spoke
so to by an interpeter.
Every morning when the turnkey pass-
es along the corridor be generally speaks
to him, but does not always receive an an-
swer. Sometimes he will speak, and
again he remains silent. None of the
other prisoners except one ever says any.
thing to him. The hall-man, Owen Rice,
who has been in jail for nearly a year
past, has made friends with him, and it is
to him he. makes known his wants. Some
times he takes a notion he would like
some delicacies, which Mr. Wells or Mr.
Scofiela are always willing to’furnish him.
He has pie, cake, etc., very often, besides
he is furnished with tobacco and every-
thing allowable to make his last hours as
pleasant as possible. He worries a great
deal, and looks rather pale. When the
reporter saw him yesterday he was clean-
ly ,shaven, and presented a rather good
appearance. He is about 25 years May,
and is short in stature.

It is a little remarkable that English
Peter Funk editors and ministers should
essay to teach and dictate to Americans
what their duty is in regard to Temper-
ance. These men claim to know more
than such life long advocates of Temper—

Rev. Dr. Stern and Carroll or Bishop

The writer is often asked why there are
two temperance organizations in the city.
The col positive answer is, theold reform
associa . on which had accomplished so
much real good, was broken~up by the in-
troduction of politics. The “more holy"
formed a 8d party and in their madcareer
of years cannot. show one man who has
renounced the intoxicating cup, through
their influence. The gospel temperance
association was revived nine months since,

California in Winter.
While the eastern section of the coun-

“rainy season” is by no means forbidding
but the pleasautest part of the year, ",when

It is the, spring time of that favored land,
for there is no winter. Thousands of
eastern people find it a delightful haven
from the frigid climate of the east. Messrs.
Raymond &. Whttcomb announce. a series
of nine grand winter trips. Every party
will travel on special time scedules, and

‘ Judge R. E. DeForest of Bridgeport. is
one of the best speakers on the stump.
he appeared in National hail Friday even -
ing to address the democrats a number of
re ublicans strolled in to en 0y the enter-
tainment with them. The udge employs
action to emphasize his utterances rind
having a shril is able to place his 'pornts
with sledge hammer efiect. With him, as
with all democratic campaign craters,
there is much chef in treating the party
of opposition. Unfortunately for the
Judge there were before him a few who
knew of the transparent ground of argu-
ment on which he stood, He said the re-
publican party had given away eight or
ten millions of acres of land to a Northern
Pacific, a Union Pacific and a Southern
s lendid, benign and patriotic po 'ey of
r. Cleveland, some two millions of those
acres had been restored to the people, but
be omitted to say what is a fact in that
connection that the very measure under
which the reclamation-was effected origi-
bated with the republicans under Presi—
dent Arthur. Dcmocrats in the room
swallowed the dose, and in their applause
said as much as to say, “It tastes good.”
Again the Judge waxed frmny in speaking
of Mr. Blaine as bellowmg through the
country about protection, and of My.
:Iarrison’s untoward course on the Chi—
nese question, but he took special pains to
omit all reference to the position held by
the leaders of his own party from 1860 to
to 1884 inclusive. His effort to show that
the lower the tariff the higher would be
wages was very funny, especially when be
enlarged on the nbble scheme in behalf of
the workingmen which Mr. Cleveland and
his sup rters had in view for their per-
sonal a vancemcnt, all of which recalled
that droll story of the son of the Emerald
Isle who ran in a foot race,‘wus beaten.
and though reaching the goal behind all
the rest, conveyed -the idea that he had
achieved a victory by saying to his friends,
“Be dad, I driv all before me.” There
was suppressed mirth even among sensible
democrats when the speaker laced “our
honored president," way up y the side
of George Washington and Abraham
Lincoln. The loudest clapping and ap—
plause although came from those on the
platform who knew just what the Judge
would say before he began. It is likely
Westport will go democratic, but not by
an increased majority.
In annual town meeting the proposition
to appropriate money to lay a good side-
walk from a point near the village to Wil-

while Willow Brook is a fine enclosure, it
was just as important to have good walks
leadiu to Evergreen, Christ church,
Catho re and Old cemeteries, as people
have friends buried in each. “PAUL.”
