The Speakerahip.

A fair and dispassionate survey of all
those elected to the next Connecticut
House of Representatives, will, we believe,
without disparagemcnt of anyone else,
justify the statement, that no Republican
member. is so pre—emicntly qualified in all
respects to be the presiding officer of that
body as J our: H. Pacer, of Fairfield. He
is an able, alert, and experienced lawyer;
a man of high aims and purposes and per.
fectly and practically familiar with parlia-
mentary rules and usages and the gen—

‘eral details and course of business ill leg-
islative bodies. His father was one of '3“
most successful and popular-Speak" ‘ who
ever presided over a Connewcut House.
Hp was truly a n5“ gmvganblcmanr—Of IIIC
people, from ibc people, with the [100ch,
and for the peOplc. No supercilious airs
or silly self assumption ever marred llis-
,haaemblclmblie or private record. His

.asv’rflgracious kindness and tender, courteous

consideration, was shown ever and always
to the highest and lowliest, in his public
and private life. It would be a fitting se—
quel to such an estimable father’s record,
in our State’s history, that his son (who
inherits all of that father’s clear and vigor-
ous intellectual powers, with even greater
attainments in legal and literary culture)
should sit in the same Speaker’s chair so
conspiciously honored by the sire. Again,
much consideration is due Mr. PERRY, and
ihcgtown he represents, from the fact that
he goes to the Legislature and was elected
overwhelmingly, in ,that stronghold of
Democracy, Fairfleld. His elevation to
the Speakerslrip wopld be but a just rec-
ognition and' recompense to the valorous
Republicans Of that town, who despite

’ such tremendious odds, have brought vic-

tory out of the jaws, of defeat and sent
two staunch Republicans to the Legisla ~
lure. Personally, Mr. Pannv has never
done alight to indicate that he either de—
sired the Gaza'r'ra’s support or friendship,
and in fact, has ill repeated instances given
clear and distinct evidences that he rather
prefrrred a newspaper’s ill will, bllt this
trivial incident is of no moment, and
makes us all the more ready and desirous
to express our conscientious conviction
that he would make the very best Speaker,
it is possible for the Republican majority
of our Legislature to select. No mistake
will be made ill the election of Mr. PERRY
for Speaker, and 'we hope to see such an
act of wisdom consummated.

Change of our Railroad. Tracks.

It. comes to us from a reasonably Well
authenticated source that tthonsolidatcd
Railroad Company have in contemplation
in order to get rid of the dangerous and

' deadly crossing at South Nor-walk, to re-
_movc their main track several hundred
rods further south, so that their new track
will be in an air line from the deepbridgc
cut at East Norwalk t'r the deep cut and
' bridge at Whistleville. This will not only
shorten their 'main line about a half mile,
but allow them to bridge the crossing at
lower Main street, South Norwalk, with-
out detriment to the public travel on either
line of road. The South Nor-walk cross-
ing is conceded to be the most danger-—
ous and the most difficult and costly
to remedy of any on the line of the rail-
road betwecn New York and Bos-
ton. This removal of the track to a point
about midway between the present cross—
ing and depot, and the lower watering
tank, will more effectually and satisfac-
torily accomplish the object sought than
any other plan yct devised. This change
will necessitate again bridging the harbor
at a point about a quarter of a mile below

the town’s drive bridge. If any one
enough interested in the matter will be at
the trouble of climbing to the cupola of
Mallackemo Hotel, he wrll see what a
shortening and improving of the present
line, this contemplated change would be,
and wonder in amazement that this air—
line was not originally adopted instead of
the half—hemisphere line built upon. It
is not as yet definitely concluded, we rin—
derstand, what disposition is to be made
of the present bridge, track and depot at
the city, brlt the surmises are that the
present depot, tracks, and bridge will be
kept as now and mud for all slow and way
and freight trains, while the lightning
expresses are sent flying over the new and
straightened tracks lower down and which
can be so constructed as to allow all high-
ways to pass under the tracks. - One state-
ment is to the effect, that no new 'depot
will be erected on this lower line and no
stops made by these through express trains,
unless it be on the east side of the harbor.
This, however, does not look either. feasi-
ble or reasonable, yet the ways of railroads
ill their mad career of competition, are
past finding out. In view of this sugn
gested’clrange, the wonder grows, that? the
same wisdom and foresight did not sug-
gest to the mind'of some one ill the direc-
tion of this great corporation, the wisdom
and policy of having built their two new
tracks, now creeping so rapidly along their
old tracks up from New York, upon ‘the
lay out of the old parallel. instead of close
beside their-former tracks. In this way,
the wide popular demand for a second
railroad a little higher up from the Long
Island Sound shore, would have been sat—
isfied, more and a better paying business
secured, and most of all,to the old railroad
corporation, a hated rival, which now
more seriouslyihan ever, incnancing tllcm,
would have been forever squelched. The
cost of operating the two tracks on such a
new line, could not have been very much
larger than they will be now with the two
extra tracks beside the old lilie, while
double. will have to be paid for the right
of way through the estates, towns, and
cities buil'. up since the old line was laid
down. Indeed, this road is now paying
out millions for the very improvements
and enhancements of real estate and prop.
erty values, they themselves have made.
thus paying feartuIly for their own enter-
pr's l and improvements.

QEblll'dncemcnts being held out to Mr.
SIl‘itii by the Panama Railroad company
be left this country to take the positipn as
auditor on that road, which was about
two years ago, and in that short time has
made himself highly appreciated and very
popular with its Idirectors; so much so
that, upon its general manager,_Col. Rives,
leaving Aspinwall for a vacation of two or
three months to come home to this coun -
try, Mr. Smith was put in charge while he.
was absent. The business of the Panama
railroad is said to be cnorr‘nous—cstimntcd
about $20,000,000—connectiug as it does
with the Pacific Mail Steamship company
from New York, and receiving business
from all parts of the world ; consequently
one must have a pretty thorough knowl~
edge of railroad business and good ex—
ecutive ability to take the head of such an
extensive management.

The remarks made by Mr. Smith at lhe
wedding, reported iii the paper referred
to, were as follows:

Mr. W. F. Smith, the esteemed and
popular auditor of the Panama Railroad
company addresssed the municipal Judge
in the following appropriate manner,
through the public interpreter, Mr. A. E.
Verderereaux : “He said that he had
never been in better company; that this
truly represented the social progress of
Colon, and that every day some new "
phase of this dcvclopcmeut could be ob-
served, and, moreover, that this city of
Colon was destined to be a great metrop—
olis, ‘as coming events cast their shadows
before them.’ That he joined all good
Columbians and lovers of their country in
undertaking the work of progress and civ—
ilization, assuring them that a prosperous
future was reserved to the Isthmus, which
naturc'llad specially favored for the union
of two great oceans, and to unite the
'people of America in close friendly rela-‘
tions by the means of joiningtogethcr two
immense seas, symbolical of the true
union, which should always exist. between
them."

A Chance that; does not Often Happen.

Knowing it is ill human nature to make
the dollar go as far as possible, or in other
words to get as much for your money as
you can, we consider it a pleasant duty to
inform orlr readers that a genuine half
price clearing sale of the finest winter-
clothing is now in progress which is to
last until New Years. It. is a very rare oc-
cnrcncc that a reliable house like Messrs.
Vogel Brothers, Eighth avenue and 42d
street, New Yord City, are clearing out all
their accumulation of broken lots, com-
prising the most desirable new styles of
winter overcoats, suits, odd coats. pants
and vests, for men, boys and children;
they will also include ill this sale many
complete lots of the most reliable quality
winter suits and ovciconts. The original
price which has been strictly adhered to,
can be seen on each ticket plainly marked.
arid underneath, marked in red ink, is H c
half price which they are now sold for.

We are informed that this sale at half
price is the resultof the cnormus early fall
trade which has accumulated a vast quan-
tity of broken lots in.tlle mammoth cloth .
ing house of Vogcl Brothers, Eighth ave—
nue, corner 42d street, New York City. A
large extra force of salesmen have been
especially engaged for this sale, that. no
matter how great the rush, every customer
will be politely and promptly served. All
goods sent free of express charges within
a hundred miles. 6t 47

SEVEN YEARS AGO

the Post published an article entitled
"Modern Miracles,” lll which a lengthy de-
scription was given of a number of cores,
which sounded more like miracles than any-
thing clse. Infarct, the cllres were so llll-
merous and of such a iiiilrvellolls character,
and were performed upon such prominent.
people, that several communities ill l’enn-
sylvailla, New York and New England,
were thrown into great excitement, and the
question was on hundreds of lips. who is
this man ? what is he. and how does he do
these:things? The Post at the time made a

' thorough examination of the matter, went

to the physician’s ofliec, watched him care-
fully, interviewed llis patients and pllblisllcd
the facts, though startling in their character,
to the world. Hundreds went to see this
doctor, were treated by him, and all told
the same story about his wonderful cures.
Some contended that this doctor's work iii
performing the miraculous cures would soon
cease ; that ill less than a year no one would
hear of him or his work ;llis patients on the
other hand claimed that his work would
never cease as long as men alld women were
sick and suffering. Years have passed since
then, and though we have frequently heard
and read of the continuation of these cures

as wonderful as those we wrote of years ago, °

we have made bllt slight study of them lin-
til recently, on account of some extraordin-
ary eases comilig to our attention. We have
made a second most thorough investigation
of this physician and his work. Ill making
this investigation we went to Boston, and
direct to the office of Dr. R. C. Flower ; the
doctor was absent for the day, bllt his offices
were full of patients from various parts of
the country, and we had an excellent oppor-
tunity to interview them. Some of these pa-
tients enthusiastically declared that be was
A MIRACLE “'ORKER

ill the sick room and at the death bed.

A prominent minister from I’itfsbllrg, I’a.,
stated that several of his friends, including
two of his family, had been treated and
cured by Dr. Flower of malignant cases of
consumption and cancer—that his present
visit was to bring a paralytic brother to the
doctor, .who he knew would cure him.

A prominent ranchman from South Texas
said he had brought his son nearly 2,000
miles to see Dr. Flower, flint five years ago
Dr. Flower had treated him for paralysis
after he had been confined and helpless in
his bed for seven years, and had restored
him to perfect health, and that while Dr.
Flower was high in his charg.s, he was the
cheapest doctor because be cured when
others failed ; ill fact he was the only pli\.‘-
slciau he would risk his lilo with if ill a
critical condition.

During this investigation I have inter-
viewed men and women in all parts of New
Englall", regarding Dull. C.Flower and his
treatment of disease. They all told the
same story about his marvellous examina-
tions and the miraculous way ill which he
treats and cures the worst diseases.

A prominent Allopalhic doctor, who had
been treated :11ch cured by Dr. Flower, after
he had considered his case incurable and his
brother doctors had pronounced it incurable,
stated that Dr. Flower "was the most ;\von-
derful physician ho had ever known or
heard of. I have watched his trenfrncntfor
some years, and I tell you (he said) that he
is more at Ironic in the sick room and at the
death bed than the bird is in the air. I
rltliei- think that cancer, consumption and
nerve troubles are his specialties.

“I tell you he toys with these diseases like
a child would with a toy, and I believe with-
out any exception that be is nearest :1 mos-
ter in the treatment and cure of chronic
diseases of any pllys inll living. I would
rather have his opinion in and chronic (Ils-
cnse than the opinion of all the. physicians
I have ever linown.”

Out of numerous testimonials gathered we
will give a. few from some of Dr. Flower-’s
pati.nf.s i:i Connecticut only, or towns ad-
jacent t) Connecticut, instead of those far
away. ”are is what they so)~ :

Mrs. II, M. lleers, No. 47 Meadow street,
Winstcd, Conll., s:lld:-—"l know Dr. R C.
Flower, of Boston, well ; he treated me three
years ago. I was suffering

FROM A Timon,

heart and kidney trouble. When I went to
Dr. Flower I could strcely walk or turn
myselfin bed. I was very large, feeble and
helpless. I had been treated by the lending
physicians of the state ; they failed to help
me, and said that all that could be done was
to make me comfortable as possible what
little time I lived. I began improving soon
after Dr. Flower began his treatment ; ill a
few months I could get around comfortably,
the tumor disappeared, also llre other
troubles. To day I am it well woman.

“I owe my life to Dr. Flower; am sure as
my friends are, if it had not been for him ,1
woulrLiiot be living to-day.”

S. J. Hopkins, of Torringtoll, Coiill., said :
“Dr. R. C. Flower treated me for a few
months with wonderful success. I was go-
ing into a decline and nothing seemed to do
lne any good, Under the doctor’s, treatment
I. began to improve, and have vigorously
prosecuted my work ever since. I consider
Dr. Flower the greatest physician of the
a e.” ‘

Mrs. Nathan Ilenhanl, of 29 Pratt street,
Hartfordm very pleasing lady, rillfl : “I am
a patient of Dr. Flower; it is wonderful
what he is doing for me.

“I began improving immediately under h is
treatment. I had been treated by all the
leading physicians of Hartford without ben—
efit. They did not seem to understand my
case. One ofthe most surprising features of
Dr. FIower’s practice is, as soon a: you go
into his presence

111-: TELLS You .

your tloubles better than you can lell him
yourself, and is tllus able to detect internal
disease. He doesn’t guess as to what the
treatment should be. I consider Dr. Flower
the most wonderful physician on the faceof'
the earth, and wish the sick everywhere
knew of his great powers.”

Stiles Ilurd, of Stratf'ord, Con.l., said :
“Several members of my family h ire been
treated by Dr. Flower with wonderful sun-—
cess when other physicians failed in 1 help
them. I regard Dr. Flower as the greatest
diving physician, nlid in every way tin ele-
gant cultured gentleman.”

Mrs. R. T. Capers, 1253 Ogden street,
Bridgeport, Court, has known Dc. Flower
for years; regards him as the greatest phy.
sician ill the Country. "He has treated me
and several of my friends with the same
wonderful results whieh seem always to
attend his treatment. I would say to all
sick sufferers, go to Dr. Flower.”

Mrs. E. I. Merrill, 334 Noble avenue,
East Bringeportflonu, stated that. five years
ago she went to see Dr. Flower a physical
wreck ; that she looked more

LIKE A CORPSE
than anything else, that the best physclans
of Bridgeport had declared her, including a
solid year’s treatment by one of these physi-
cians ; that under their treatment she grew
worse and that no one. thought she could
live long; that under I)l‘.Flowcl".~ treatment
she began to improve, and ill a few months
was restored to perfect health. “I know,”
continued this gentle little lady, "several of
my neighbors \lllo have been treated and
cured by Dr. L. (‘. Fhmer in the same won-
derful way, when given up :.s incurable by
other physians. I" e is :l most pleasant
gentleman ; everybody likes him who knows
him. IIeis most thoroughly i:i home in his
profession, and I believe him to he the
greatest physician of this age.”

Chas. Adams, of Adams avenue, Xorwnlk,
Conn . a gentleman seventy years of age,
stated that over five years ago, all broken
down in health and fnillng rapidly. he went

 

tosee Dr. R. C. Flower, of Boston, after he .

had been unsuccessfully treated by :1 number
of I'll-oiliiriellf phy. . .s; that. I)l'. Flower
treated him and ill a. short time cured him,
and that he had enjoyed splendid health
ever since; that another member of his fam-

I had llll‘rl treat my son. I regard him as the

It was with dlllicnlty he went to see Dr.
Flower; that his former physicsall hail pro—
nounced him incurable and had limited his
life to only five or six months. That in
twelve minutes’ time Dr. Flower had entire-
ly cured him, and he had enjoyed excellent
health ever since. That he would have been
in his grave if it had not been for Dr. Flow-
er, and Ire considered him the medical won-..
der of the age. ,

Mrs. Henry C. Coo'por, of Brewstcrs, N.

Y., said that she' had been treated and

cured several years ago by Dr. Flower of
i:iiEUMA'rlSM. ‘

after other physicians had given her up and

she had become a confirmed snflerer. That

five years ago she took Miss Jennie Hopper,

of Brookfield, Mo., to Dr. Flower; that she

was a great invalid, had been given up as.

incurable; in fact, her friends did not ex—
pect. her to return to Misouri alive, that Dr.
Flower soon restored her to health and from
that day to this she has cnioyed excellent
health. “I have known a great many,” con
tinued Mrs. Hooper, “cured by Dr. Flower
after being abandoned as incurable by other
physicians.”
MRS. s. A. HOYT.
of Brewster's, New York, said: “Seven years
ago I was cured by Dr. R. C. Flower of a
most desperate case of rheumatism. My left
limb was drawn up so I had no use of it, and
was. to all purposes, dead from the hip to
the foot. Some of the physicians wanted to
cut the leaders, and try this way to straight-
cll the limb; others said there was no cure
for me. I had been a helpless sufferer for
months before I went to see Dr. F lower ;
they had to

Well, to be brief, Dr. Flower cured me in a
very short time. I,have the some use of the
diseased limb as the other—am .well every
way. Dr. Flower cured lacy—saved my life,
-—and that when all else on earth failed me.”

Mrs. F. C. Bailey, of Brewster's N. Y.:
“Dr. R. C. Flower ,

CURED ME suvnuan YEARS AGO OF

I’ARALYSIS,
also of a liver and nerve tr0uble. I had
given up all hope when I was taken to Dr.
Flower. I'Ie cured me spedily and saved
my life. I consider him the greatest of
physicians.”

Miss Josephine Townsend said : “Four
years ago I had a most serious trouble which
threatened not only my health but my ii ~-
nrediate life. It was

A VERY AARGE INTERNAL TUMOR.
I t secondarily ail'ected most seriously my
heart, rendering me almost liel less and
very miserable. I went to New ork city,
consulted a prominent physician there who
advised an operation as the only thing which
could be done, but would not promise that
even an operation would help me. I returned
home filled with despair, for it seemed that
i was DOOMED.
III the midst of my despair I heard of Dr.
Flower, and went to see him as a last resort.
He commenced treating me at once. To
my surprise and the surprise of every one
who knew me, he began rapidly lily troubles,
removed the monstrous tumor. Now see
me, thank God my life is saved,

Mrs. A. J. Brewers, of Brewers, N Y.:

‘ I was treated alld cured six years ago by

Dr. R. C. Flower, of a very serious heart

trouble, which rendered it impossible for inc
to work, and came very near taking my life.
I had been treated by several physicians
before going to Dr. Flower, but I grew
worse under their treatment. Dr. Flower

soon cured nic' I know of many of his cures, '

and a great many of them sound like
nli.aclcs.“

The above statements might create blll
little attention if they were from obscure
persons in rcllictc localities, bllt coming as
they do from men and women in our midst,
many of whom are most prominent ill finan-
cial, so inl, and intellectual circles, men and
women who would not for their'llves tell an
nillruth, and me among the 011 and blue
blended families of New England, it is put—

ting it mild to say that the enthusiasm of"

these patients over Dr. F lower‘s professional
abilities knows no limits. They 'all told 'the
same strange story of Dr. Flower being able
to tell ally one their disease without asking
any questions. No two hardly agree as to

life in this mysterious 'way, yet all say he
does so.

Following these investigations, wc board—
ed the night train for Boston, and early the
next morning put in our appearance at Dr.
Flowei’s new oflices, in the Hotel Flower,
cor. Columbus avenue and H olyokc street.
Early as it was, we found a. number of
patients waiting to consult the doctor, and
some. had come fronl almost the ends of the
earth, to consult and be treated by him.

.-\t 11 o’clock we were shown into Dr.
Flowcr’s private office, "Take a seat,” said
the physician. “What can I do for you ?”
“A re you Dr. Flower '3” I asked. "Yes,”
was the quiet reply. “What! Dr. R. C.
Flower?’ ‘That is my name,” he said.

I felt the smile of doubt creep over my
face, for I could hardly believe that this
young man between 35 and 40, and looking
much younger, could be the Dr. Fowler who

has frequently startled the world, of late.

years, by almost raising the dead, by curing
the incurable, and snatching the dying from
