possibly some more jealousy.

Paddy Cahill, who immortalized him-
self recently by being tied behind a wagon
en route to the lockup, is again in jail.
Friday night he got on the warpath, bit a
man through the nose, throwed an astou-
ished Chinaman over a brick block, kicked
abaker in the face and struggled like a
(lemon with the police who gathered him
in. He went into the lockup with most
of his clothes torn off and a sore head—
but he got‘therc just the same, and Justice
Coolidge gave him a heavy fine and im-
prisonment'in Bridgeport jail.
The officers and a score of members of
St. John’s lodge, F. and A M. went to
Middletown on Friday evening where they
conferred the third degree. A number of
the visitors spent all the next day there,
where they were royally entertained by
their Middletown brethren, and returned
with pleasant and lasting remembranccs
of the occasion.
There is going to be fun at the fair
ground Thursday if certain arrange-
ments are carried out. “Dutch George"
Wendling, the baker, and “Billy” Devine
have each deposited $50 in the hands of a
responsible party, as a forfeit, for which
they will trot their respective horses, “go-
as—you please” next Thursday afternoon,
each to drive his own horse. Devine says
he will wear a green cap, and Dutch
George will wear a red handkerchief on
his head. Devine’s horse is named Cleve-
land, and Dutch George’s horse is Harri—
son. The result of the race may be ac—
cepted as a reliable indication of how the
election of next month will go.—Record.
The stockholders of the New York 1%
Connecticut Air Line Railroad Co. (famil—
iarly known as the Olmstcad Parallel,)
held their annual meeting for the election
of officers at the office of the cdmpany at
9Main street Friday forenoon. Among
those present from out of town were
Messrs. Parrott, Winton and Stevenson
of Bridgeport; Tliayer and Blood, of
Boston; Sidell and Brown, of New York.
Among the directors elected are Messrs.
Parrott, and Farrott, Jr., Winton, Lock-
wood, Coolidge, Cowlcs, Welsh and Cash.
The affairs of the company were exhaus,
tively discussed and the conviction is
hirgelyinteiislfied that the road will be
pushed to a speedy completion.
A Norwalk lady rela'tcs with relish an
incident that occurred on board one of the
excursron trains duiing the Danbury fair.
It was a train returning from Danbury to
Norwalk carrying a heavy load of passcn-'
gers. The close atmosphere caused a lady
to faint away in one of the cars, and a
friend rushed through the train for the
baggage car to get water for bringing her
to, but was unable to find a drop of water
'on the train. The other passengers
crowded around the lady, who soon be-
gan to regain consciousness, and as the
friend returned from the fruitless search
for water and ejaculated: “There isn’t a
a drop on the train,” in the twinkling of
an eye at least a dozen whiskey bottles
were pulled from as many pockets and
eagerly extended toward the gasping lady.
The very ludicrousness of the situation
. impressed the lady so forcibly as to cause
her to smile and brought her out of the faint
man instant, while some of the bottle
holders slipped their glassware back into
their pockets and sneaked into another
ear-looking as if they had been stealing
sheep—Record. .
Now that W. B. Hall & Co. are able to
import directly through the custom house
in their own city. The ladies who seek
the choicest goods in silk and woollen
'of foreign manufacture, can find just
what they want at the firiu’s headquarters
in Bridgeport. The first half of. autumn
finds the firm prepared With an array of
dress silks worthy of mention, and the
magnitude and beauty of which has nc.ver
been approached in any previous year.
In ready made winter garments every
fashionable pattern in every genteel shape
and pattern and all prices which are low
are now offered. This department, as it
appears to-day, has in its composition, not
the stock designed for the actual winter
trade, but a supply which will answer as
a. sort of introduction to what promises to
be the biggest rush in the history of this
house.
Let every Republican who has a candi-
date to be made see that it is done today.
Country newspapers which are publish-
ed near large cities nay often be used as
advertising mediums by business men of
the city, with good results. The better
class of the inhabitants of towns, situated
near cities, will frequently go the city for
their more important needs, such as cloth-
ing. for instance, and the city advertiser
who patronizes their local paper is quite
sure to get a good share of their patronage
in return. The local store-keeper, or
business mauwho is shrewd, will always
patronize the local paper. It benefits him
by keeping his name perpetually before
the. community in which he lives, and it
also benefits him in an indirect way, by
helping to make the paper prosperous,
which, in its turn will help to make the
town or village prosperous. There is'
nothing which helps to attract people to a
village more than a well-conducted local
newspaper.—~Ezchange.

The Waterbury Democrat gives the fol—
lowing details concerning a Cobble Ilill

ous occasions of 'a gurc clothed in a long
white gown that passes through people's
yards, over fences and through the woods
west of the fair grounds, where it is lost
to view. Nobody has had the courage to
intercept the midnight visitor or even to
learn what or who it was. Nevertheless,
the mystery has been cleared up and by
the assistance of the supposed “spook"
itself. One of the citizens of the neigh-
borhood, who had heard from ' friends of
the strange visitations and who was in his
boyhood days given to sleep walking,
recalled the fact that he himself on arising
in the morning on various occasions
would be completely exhausted and would
find his bare feet covered with mud His
wife had oftentimes reproached him for
not being cleanly, when he told her that
.he must have soiled his pedal extremities
during his sleep, for they were certainly
clean on retiring. Last week a watch was
put on his movements, and sure enough,
without other attire than his long white
night robe, and barefooted, he cautiously
left the house for his accustomed somnam-
bulistic wandering. His wife trembled,
but was afraid of the shock if she awak—
ened him. He remained away over an
hour, returned and r ired, the wife in the
meantime in breath ess suspense. She
watched him each night, and regularly at
midnight every second night he made his
strange tour through the streets and fields,
returning after an absence of an IlOlll' or
more and retiring, utterly oblivious of all
that occurred.

The fire department received attention
at the hands of the court of burgesses at
its last meeting, which cost consternation
into the ranks of the firemen, in the adop-
tion of a borough by-law, which limits
the membership of each fire company
to thirty active members, and pro-
hibits honorary members from voting
at elections of the fire department,
- the by-law taking effect October 3lst. If
the respective companies are unable to
determine who shall constitute the requi;
site number of members by December lst
the borough board will revise the com-
pany rolls. This ordinance will reduce
the number of active firemen in the
borough to about one-half the present
number, the companies at present stand-
ing about as follows:—Hopc Hose, 80;
Phoenix Engine 00., 60; Pioneer Hook
and Ladder, 30. The by-law, it is under.
stood was recommended to the board as
a move calculated to promote the effi-
ciency and discipline of the department;
that it will result in iiicrcascl vigilance in
the selection, and demand a higher stan-
dard of qualification in candidates for
membership, and thus elevate the person -
no] of the various companies. Among
certain fii-eiiieii, however, the by-law is
considered an electionceriiig scheme de-
signed to disfruuchise a large majority of
the firemen b.-fore the election of chief
engineers takes place. which occurs in
December, and some of the criticisms
are decidedly severe.

The gold and silver spikes that wedded
the Little Derby road to the Housatonic
system, were driven by Col. William H.
Stevenson on Wednesday of this week.
The Connecticut press was largely repre-
sented, the first train over the extension
being an excursion on which the journalists
were the special guests. The train con-
sisted of four cars profusely decorated
with flags and hunting. 'l‘hc Wheeler 85
Wilson band was in attendance and
enlivened the o:casion with an abundance
of choice mu§c. The train left New Haven
at 10.80 and arrived at the spot where the
spikes were driven at about 1 o’clock.
All along the route the utmost enthusiasm
prevailed. Thousands of people had con-
gregated along the line, greeting the first
train over the new road with the waving
of flags and handkerchicfs; factory whis-
tles footed and bells rang. At the scene
of the spike-driving a large concourse of
the country people had gathered, many of
'whom evidently had never before seen a
train of cars. Here the train was unload-
ed, a ponderous cannon boomed a royal
welcome, the band played one of its most
inspiring selections, Col. Stevenson made
a few remarks and then drove the precious
spikes into the “tie that binds” the two
systems; the band played some more, the
cannon boomed again; the crowd cheer.
ed; a man came along ‘with a big claw
and pulled the two spikes up again to be
made intowatch charms for the press as
souvenirs; the party boarded the train
again and off they went with Co]. Steven-
son holding the throttle and steering the
train safely over high trestles and through
deep cuts,to Botsford where the main line
of the Housatonic road was reached. The
train ran to Danbury where a banquet
was served at: the Turner House and
speeches were made by Col. Stevenson,
Judge Luzon D. Morris, Democratic can-
didate for Governdr; ch. S. E. Merwin,
Republican candidate for Lieutenant
Governor; llou. N. D. Sperry, of New
Haven, and various members of the press.
After the banquet the liuc re-formed,
marched book to the depot and took the
train to Bridgeport where three cheers
were given for Col. Stevenson, and the
party disbanded.

Trowbrldge Speaks.
For a few years past the democrats have
put up their best men. If they had been
elected they would have represented the
town satisfactorily, but have been defeated
by increased majorities; but in the present
campaign they saw an overwhelming de-
feat awaiting them, and to carry out their
principles of free trade they have imported
one in the person of a Dr. from North
Carolina, who is making atemporary visit
with- his friends. I say temporary, be-
cause for :years past. he has made flying
visits and returned again; he is chock full
of southern principles. He Went to
Europe last year, and, I presume, took
lessons from the Cobdcn club, and the
leaders say they are going to elect him,
not the masses, because he has respectable
parents and an unsullied reputation. We
admit that. There are a good many dem-
ocratic and republican parents who have
respectable sons that are not qualified to
send to the legislature to help make our
laws.
song is :
“Shout the glad tidings, exultantly sing.”
The democrats are victorious. Free.
trade is just the thing. They held their
caucus three weeks earlier than is their
custom for fear their candidate would
emigrate to some other country. He is a
stranger to me. Would not know him if
I met him in the street, and I have spent
the most of my days here. I believe a
few years of his boyhood he spent in this
town, and left quite young to study for
his profession, and, after graduating. he
went south to practice. He is just about
as well qualified to represent the town of
New Canaan in the legislature as 1 am
Queen Victoria’s parliament. The demo-
crnts may think I am alarmed and doubt
the result, which is nothing of the kind.
I am inagnanimous. I want them to put
up their strongest man so when the-vote s.
are counter! they cannot say but that it
has been a fair fight. If they calculate to
come the snap game on the republicans
they have nominated the wrong man. His
friends should advise him to withdraw
from the canvass, and then nominate
Burllng D. Purdy. If elected he would
be an honor to the town he represents,
and no one will dispute his democracy.

RANDOM RAMBLINGS.
BY ROSIE ROWE. 01m RANDOM RAMBIJill.
The papers say there are over ten thous-
and youugineniii Connecticut who will
cast their “maiden vote” this fall. This
is glorious news for ten thousand maid-
ens, and possibly it is one of the beneficcnt
results of the late extensive and profound
newspaper discussion of the question, “Is
Marriage 11 Failure ?" Brit there are
thousands of older mom—men who have
voted for years and plodded along in
single misery~wlio ought to profit by the
example of these ten thousand young men
and cast their “maiden vote" before the
maiden supply runs out.
it I. all
This much mooted question, whether
marriage is a failure, suggests thoughts
enough to fill up your whole paper—but
Iforbear. It would seem that no argu—
ment should be necessary to ‘conviiicc
anybody that marriage is a success. Of
course I must of necessity speak from ob-
servation, in the utter absence of personal
experience. And I observe that marriage
is one thing and marriage is another, and
the unhappy vicissitudes, such as divorc-
es, dcsertions, deceptions, etc., which,
unfortunately, are sufficiently common to
suggest the discuSsioii of the question,
are nevertheless the exceptions which
prove the rule that marriage is a success.
We frequently hear the remark that such
and such a man would make a good hus-
band. 110 would. Any man would make
a good husband. But much depends upon
his selection of a wife, and too often he
doesn't sort out. the right one from the
ever abundant supply. There’s where
the mischief comes in. Here’s a man who
ought, at the earliest possible moment, to
marry a big, raw-boned, athletic Virago
who would knock his brains out with the
stove poker the first day of the honey-
moon. He would make an excellent dead
husband. Instead of that he wins the
heart of some gentle, loving, patient crea-
ture whom he leads a life of slavery and
drudgery and despair, and who might
well ponder the question, is marriage a
failure? Then here is a young squirt of
a boy who is just getting out of his teens
and into the soulful sighings of his first
love. He wants to get married. And if
he does as he ought to, he will go and
marry seine elderly woman who will care
for him with motherly solicitude and
train him up in the way he should go, so
that when he arrives at years of discretion
and becomes a widower he will make
somebody a good husband. But he
doesn’t do that. He goes straiglitway
and weds the little girl who looks joy-
ously 'forward, with him into the
rose-tinted future, with its love
in a cottage where she is going
to be the reigning queen and warm
his slippers for him and meet him at the
door with a kiss and he’s never going to
speak a cross word, and all that sort of
nonsense that always illumines love's
young dream ; and the almost inevitable
sequel, which later sends the poor girl
home to her parents with the castle of her
fancies hopelessly shattered, proves the
folly of premature marriages and the mis-
take of parental sanction. Nevertheless,
marriage is not a failure, but where it is a
mismatch it is a pitiable blunder.

It was observed that there was hardly
less drunkenness on the streets last Stin-
duy than heretofore. It would seem that
some means should be adopted to abate
this nuisance, which is becoming intol-
erable. My sister's husband says he
thinks the Sunday guardian of the peace
must be a respecter of persons, and in
this view the Sunday druukards must be-
long to‘a select, privileged class, a con-
clusion which their general appearance
fails to justify. Be that as it may, in
Heaven’s name let something be done.

Horse Railways.
In view of the exact fact that Mr. Hyatt
has more than a year yet, under his char-
ter already secured, in which to build his
street railway from the Bridge to Win ni-
pauk, is it not a little' “previous” to say
the least, to organize a new syndidiitc
seperatc and independent from Mr. Hyatt?
Especially does this seem so, in view of‘
the further fact that Mr. Hyatt assures us
that the track will be down and the cars
running, in ample time to carry the thou-
sands of passengers who will want to use
it at the Fairfield County Fair, to be held
next September.
But we would not be understood as de—
siring to in any manner crash or even
chill this new budding promise of local
life and enterprise accredited to the lead-
ership of our good friend, Mr. Lee.
No, perish the thought! For be it from
the old Gazarra to change its life-long
tactics of urging forward every enterprise
that can in any wise promote the prosperi-
ty and happiness of the people of our iir
comparably beautiful town. If We could
be permitted a suggestion, we would say,
“don’t let the steam run down a single
point," but be cntreated to switch off the
Horse Railway and leave that to Mr.
Hyatt, now that he is really determined
to build‘ it, and let this new impulse of
enterprise supply Norwalk with a new
and decent hotel.
Catlin For Senator.
The republican convention for the 13th
Senatorial district, held in Norwalk, on
Monday, nominated the Hon. Lyman S.
Catlin of Stratford, as the candidate for
state senator, to succeed Senator Hill.
In placing Mr. Catlin in nomination they
have given usa candidate who will be a
worthy successor to our distinguished
fellow citizen. He is engaged in the
banking business in Bridgeport and is well
and favorably known throughout the dist-
rict. In his own town, which he has rcp-
rescnted in the state legislature, he is
loved and honored by his fellow towns-
mcn. He is a man of spotless reputation,
unquestioned ability and unimpeacliable
integrity; a man who will,like his immedi-
ate predecessor, bc a credit to the district-
and a useful and active member of the
highest body in the General Assembly.
He isaman against whom no breath of

Republicans or Democrats in voting
against him. And furthermore, he will be
elected. .

We ask our readers’ attention to the
new advertisdmeiit in another column of
a genuine “Pure Tea," put up and her-
metically sealed in cans, so as to prevent
adulteration aud deter-loation before it
reaches the consumer. ’ The brand “0 if;
0 TEA" is unique, and simple enough
to be easily remembered by anyone. This
tea is guaranteed by the proprietors. the
Oriental and Occidental Tea 00., L‘t’d.,
of New York, to be the highest grade leaf
and is warranted full weight. This “0
& 0 Tea” may be found at all our enter-
prising groceries and an early trial of its
merits is recommended to all lovers of an
economical Pure Tea.

For the third time this fall, lioodliims

they injured property for Captain W. S.

“Three stars,” in the Westporier of
Saturday, refers iii a way so pleasant and
sensible to what was said in this column,
that the writer chastizes himself for the
use of seeming strong language at the
outset, and almost agrees with “three
stars" that a little more care bestowed on
the highways, wouldn’t hurt the contrac-
tor. At the same time, “three stars”must
admit that the best contractor in the
world, with rain falling every other day
on his work, as our contractor has had,
would find himself exposed to equally ex-
asperating difficulties.

Success is attending the labors of earn-

Harvey. -
The question was asked at the Saturday
night’s i'eCcption of Mrs. Livcrmorc,
"Boston’s supi'r-mcst platform queen,” if
it was not more to allow a reverend an
opportunity to air his sanctified egotism.
A fair audience greeted Mrs. Livcrmore
at her Saturday evening lecture, but no
enthusiasm was manifest. Much impa-
ticiicc was shown while Mr. Delano occu-
pied the best lialf hour of the evening by
his haraiigiie, which most of the audience
did not care to hear. Mrs. Livcrmorc
raked down the republican party, and
according to her view there is not a tem-
perance or honest man among them.
There is a multitude who think and know
to the contrary.
There never has been a more earnest or
successful canvass than that made by the
republican committee of South Norwalk;
There has been no blowing about it, but
everything has been done systematically
and thorough, and all that now remains
’is to keep tip the interest and enthusiasm
by some acceptable and prominent speak-
ers, and obtaining a full vote on election
day.
Convicrfibor.
Just before congress adjourned Senator
Teller asked that a committee be raised to
ascertain the facts in regard inuc gov-
ernment purchasing any wagons made by
prison labor in the state of Tennessee.
Of course Senator Bate and other demo-
crats opposed it. Senator Teller said he
did not offer the resolution for any effect
it might liiive:on the approaching election,
because in the nature of the case the facts
could only be reported to the next session
of congress, but he did not approve of the
government making use of convict labor,
or of alien labor. He understood that the
War department had recently purchased
blankets in England at a saving of thirty
cents a piece. He thought that that was
beneath the dignity of a great govern-
ment.
