Mr. Abram Fitch, living on the West-
port road, had a can of milk stolen from
his milk house last Tuesday evening.
Mr. Fitch seems to be pursued by a per-
sistent thief or gang of thieves. It will be
remembered that he had a desperate strug-
gle with a chicken thief in his hennery
a wait before, and in the squabble the
thief lost his cap, which is now at Lock-
wood & Andrews’ market on Main street,
and a number of people who have seen it
think it “looks familiar."—Reoord.

road. Excellent workmen have been
engaged, and the shop will be stocked
I with all requisites for prompt repairs and
new work at moderate prices.
The “sweet charity,” that was set on
foot by the pastors of the Baptist, Metho-
dest and Congregational churches, of fur-
nishing a good Thanksgiving dinner to all
the worthy poor of our berough resulted
in supplying forty-seven such poor but
deserving families. It is believed that not
a single destitute family, within the limits
of this charitable enterprise, Was icftwith-
out a suitable meal to inspire their grati-
tude and thankfulness. '

his party still held the majority. They

ing that the republican candidate be do-
clared elected, which was dismissed.

MR. Em'ronz—Paul King Sheffield of
Southport, aged 84. died recently. He
was the son of Paul K. of Sioniugton, and
Mabel Thorp of S'Nllllp‘ni, and his resi-

Judge Beardsley has given an opinion
in one of the famous Clinton oyster cases
in the suit of the town of Clinton against
Henry Bacon, and the decision is in favor
of the town. About 22 years ago Bacon
was granted an oyster-bed in Clinton har—
bor, which afterward turned out to be a
natural oyster-bed. The town then insti-
tuied "proceedings to oust Bacon, but he
held that his long occupancy of the bed
gave him a title. The supreme court
holds that no adverse proceedings can be
instituted against the state.
At about twelve o’clock Thursday night
a telephone message came from Winnipauk
to the police, stating that a man had been
killed by the cars near that station. A team
was procured and Chief Lockwood and :1.
RECORD reporter were driven to the scene
of the accident by Timothy Henley, who
immediately returiided for Undertaker Jen—
nings and Deputy Coroner Burke. The
Chief and the re orter found a half dozen of
the citizens of \ innipauk, including Mr. 13,
S. Keith and station agent Marsh, guarding
the largest portion of the body, which lay
beside the track nearly opposite the railroad
entrance to the Fair Grounds. It presented
:I sickening appearance, being literally torn
and ground to shreds. The track for a dis-
tance of nearly half a mile, was strewn
u'itli fragments of flesh and clothing, and
both legs had been torn ofi‘. Undertaker
Jennings and assistant gathered up the
fragments as best they could, being
obliged to use a shovel in doing so, and
brought them to the boron h. The
body was identified as that of eter Mc-
Ginnesspf Cobble Hlil,who had been attend-
ing the “opening”.of a new saloon in Winni-
pauk and was supposed to have been on his
way home when he was killed. It is not
positively known which train struck him,
but the generally accepted theory is that he
was killed by the freight traincoming south at
about eight o’clock, and it is thought at
least two trains ran over his body before he
was discovered by the track walker. He had
been pulled away from the track twice be-
fore being killed, by friends who attempted
to persuade him to go home—Record.
The body of Frederick Schuman, who
was drowned III the harbor while out fish"
ing with Wm. Mcseberg a few weeks ago,
was found floating in the surf on the
Long Islandshore about six miles from
Port Jefferson on Saturday last. It was
taken in charge by the authorities of Port
Jefferson and buried in the village ceme—
tery. On Tuesday evening a notice of
the finding of the body with a descriptibn
of the clothing and articles found in the
pockets, was published in the papers, and
from the description published, Editor
Wade. of Norwalk, was convinced that it
was the body of Schuman, and immedi—
ately visited Mrs. Schuman on Wilton
avenue, and communicated to her the
news of the finding. Mrs. Schuman re--
quested Mr. Wade to go to Port Jefferson
and make sure of the identity'of the body
and arrange to have it brought home .for
interment, giving him a complete detailed
description of the clothing her husband
were on the day of his death. Mr. Wade
went to Port Jefierson on Wednesday,
visited the village undertaker and the
proper town officials. had the body ex—
humed and .by the clothing alone identified
it as that of Frederick Schuman. The
flesh of the face and hands had been eaten
away and aside from the clothing there
was nothing which marked his identity.
The clothing, however, settled the matter
in Mr.>Wa'de’s mind beyond the shadow
of a doubt. The body was properly de—
posited in a metallic case and brought to
orwalk yesterday afternoon. The funeral
will take place at the late restdence of de—
ceased this afternoon at 2 o’clock. Mr.
Schuman was a member of Nasahogan
Lodge, I. O. O. F.. of Waterbury, and the
members of Our Brothers’ Lodge, of Nor-
walk, are interesting themselves in the
arrangements and expenses of his funeral.

Saturday last a tall, smooth-faced sanc -.
timonious appearing individual with wild,
restless eyes and an intensely interested
expression, came into the Guerra office
and asked to be interviewed by a reporter.
He said his name was U. Grant Houston,
“B. S.” and that he was holding meetings
as an evangelist in the West Norwalk
chapel,- and would continue there through
this week. He exhibited a small framed
photograph of a peculiar confrivancc
which he said he had invented. It illus—
trated, he said, the entire universe, from
the waters-under the earth to the New
Jerusalerii’above all, which was represent-
ed byh cupola just above the circle of
stars, on the porch of which stood two
figures which Mr. Houston, 13. S., said
were angels, but which looked like a co'u-
ple of hitching posts. Said Mr. Houston,
B. S.: “I am from different parts of the
country and am a graduate of some of
the Western colleges, altliougg I have
thrown aside my diplomas and certificates.
My life work is that of an evangelist and
I just get right up in a meeting and talk
off hand without any notes or anything.
Sometimes the ungodly come in and try
to break up the meetings, but I never al-
low the devll to get ahead of me. I talk
about astronomy, mental and moral phi-
losophy, and man’s accountability, and
prove the truth of all my assertions by
incontrovertible demonstrations. Some
people call me crank, but I aiu’: a crank
andlcan prove it. They want me to
stay with them permanently in West Nor-
walk, but I ain‘t going to locate perma-
neatly in any place just yet. I am in
Broad River to-morrow night and want
you to come over and hear me, and you
needn’tsay so much about my speaking
as you do about the meetings themselves.
But come over to-morrow night and see
if I don’t prove that I am not a crank as
some‘people say I am." With that Mr.
U. Grant Houston,B.S., left. 0n the
following "night, -(Sd_nday,) a. reporter
wended his tortuous way to Broad River
in company with a delegation of bor-
ougliites, to hear Mr. Ilouston, B. S. dia-
prove the malicious accusation-of the un—
godly, that he was a crank. A prayer
meeting was in progress, led by Brother
Knapp, who after calling on a. numbn- of
brothers and sisters, for prayers and tea
timony, allowed Air-,Houston, B. S., to
make his talk. Mr. Houston, B. S., came
to the front of the platform, took a silk
handkerchief from his neck, showing 'a
high standing collar and a black choker,
unbutfoned his frock coat and revealed
an impressively large acreage of immacu—
late shirt front relieved by a gutta percha
diamond, braced back against the. organ
Willi his hands clasped together at; the
small of his back, shut his eyes, clenched
his teeth and let her go. His style of ora-
tory and his logical reasoning were a rev-
elation. It is-safe to say Broad River
never heard such eloquence—alto reporter-
certninly never did. During Mr. Houston.
B. C’s pauses; the dropping of a pin
might be heard. During the deliverance
of his impassioned passages the explosion
of a 50 pound dynamite bomb in the
chapel would have sounded as faintly as
the dropping of a feather. Mr. Houston,
B. S., carries with him an original style
of delivery and a series of gesticulations
which are peculiarly his own, and they
are very impressive. Those of his hearers
who attended with the sole object of de-
termining as to whether Mr. Houston, B. S.
is a crank, unanimously agree that if he
is not, he exemplifies in a wonderful de-
gl'c: what “inspii'aiion”»can do for an
evangelist Ilc says he ’s to be at West
Norwalkivery night His week. He is
well worth hearing.
The wife of Gen. W. T. Sherman, who

for holding said stock holders’ meeting.
A full attendance of the directors is re-

The annual meeting of the Sons of the
Revolution was held at Delmonico’s Mon-
day evcning, it having been the one-hun—
dried and fiftieth anniversary of the part ,
ing of General Washington with his of-
ficers. Judge John Fitch, the well known
descendent of Connecticut’s Governor
Fitch, is a prominent member of this
patriotic society. The Gaza'r'ra was rep
resented in the person of its senior, who
is also a member.
The next number of the Century is to
contain Henry Ward Beecher‘s last man
uscript-an uncompleted paper on his
trip to England'in 1803, which, he was
writing for the Century war book the last
week of his life. The article is supple
mented by a brief paper by the Rev. J.
M. Buckley, D. D., who was an eye wit-
ness and bearer of the famous Speech
which Mr. Beecher delivered in Liverpool
in 1863 in the presence of a bowling mob.

After a successful season which began
on October 3rd, the American Institute
Fair at 3rd avenue (and 63rd street, will
close on December 15. The resident of
New York never neglects a visit to the
fair. and visitors to the city cannot afford
to allow a glance at the exhibition go by,
especially when the building is complete-
ly filled with important exhibits and the
rate of admission is but 25c. Exhibitors
have the right to sell and deliver goods,
and it is in a great many instances a great
convenience to the purchaser. The ad-
dition of attraction of concerts every
afternoon and evening'js worth remember-
ing. and the entire exhibition commends
itself for its value to any one interested in
works of art, household goods and ma—
chinery, to say nothing of a general assort-
ment of exhibits covering a large range of
industry and invention.

The case of Blanchard against the bor-
ough of Norwalk, the decision in which
was given last week, against the borough,
had its origin in 1872 and had been in lit-
igation since 1879, when plaintiff sued
defendant in two suits, for $18,000 and
$15,000 respectively. Gen. Wm. Randle
Smith answered to the suits up to the time
of his death, about four years ago. He
brought a petition under the statute in
1880. for the appointment of commissioners
on the case. J. Beldenflurlbutt, Esq., had
nothing to do with the case until after the
death of Gen. Smith. Mr. Hurlbutt did
not advise not to settle, as has been falsely
stated. The committee found $1,600

The ministration of Rev. Mr. Biddle, at
the Congregational church have been high-
iy appreciated, and the attendance is
increased every Sunday. His discourses
on last Sunday were highly appreciated,
and listened to with marked attention and
pzofit.
The first meeting of the Gospel Reform
Temperance association in their newly
acquired rooms on Main street, was held
on Friday evening last. There was a large
attendance, and great interest was mani-
fest in the work. The rooms are to be
open every night, and all are invited to
stop in and make a social call. Public ,
meetings will be held every Friday even-
ing, at 7.30, o’clock.
After a year’s experience the Gospel
Temperance association have demon-
strated that the subject can be discussed
and men reclaimed from their evil ways,
without making it a political matter.
Their first anniversary was held last Sun—
day, and after a veritable love feast which
was participated in by Messrs C. and T.
Wood, Grant, Tamany, Ambler, Selleck,
Miller, Bartram, Fox, and Mrs. J. M.
Eilendorf, officers for the ensuing six
months were elected, and the new-year is
commenced under veryfiattcring, auspices.
Some of the ladies of the W. C. T. .,
feeling that they cannot remain as “dis-
trusted auxrllaries” to the union, have

Messrs. Lloyd and Herbert B. Nash
went duck shooting on Saturday morning,
leaving the village; in a small boat at t
o'clock, reaching Caukeen’s Island soon
after daylight. The weather was mild,
but as the day advanced it grew cold and
a raw, north wind blew, increasing toward
night. They brought down many ducks,
but could not capture ,them as they fell
far from shore, on account of the waves
which ran high, making an attempt to do
so perilous. At low water they dug clams
and with a liberal lunch made the day as
pleasant as possible. In their wanderings
both were chilled through, and as showing
the difiiculties encountered, it required
three hours of constant rowing to bring
them from the island to thefr wharf. They
are of the opinion that the pleasures of
hunting ducks exists more in sentiment
than in fact, and will not be sought again
by them this season.
A small apple supply in this section is
indicated by the very few barrels of cider
made at Nash's mill. Fifty barrels will
