NE WOANAAN. The Ladies’ Industrial Society of the longregational church were favored with a. very pleasant day for this large and beautiful lawn party held on the church grounds on Thursday afternoon and even— ing of last week. The horse sheds were beautifully trimmed with evergreen and hunting, and at evening the grounds were illuminated by over a hundred Japanese lanterns. Visitors were present from Nor- walk, Stamford, Ridgefield and an omni- bus with over twenty from Southport. According to the gate receipts over seven hundred people entered the grounds from three until ten o’clock. The first attrac— tion on entering was the ice cream bow— ers, presided over by young ladies with fantastic caps made to match in color the trimmings of their booths. The young ladies who presided at these attractive places, were, Misses Martha Silliman, Mary McKendrick, Mabel Raymond, Mai- ion Hall, Sadie Brown, Fanny Benedict, Bertha Scolield, Marion Benedict, Hattie Schofield, SOphie Wolfe], Miss Ruseoe, Ada Hallingsworth, Bertha Farity, Alice Tuttle, Sarah McKendrick, Nellie Ruscoe, Alice Whitney, Maggie McKendrick, J en- nie Hoyt, Georgie Drummond, Agnes Keeler, Estelle Ci'issey, and Nellie Jones. Next came the lemonade well at which Miss Bunncll and Miss May Benedict pre- sided, and a children’s table under the care of Misses Annie Davis and Mildred Anderson, little guests of Mrs. Albert Comstock. Miss Annie St. John and Miss May Drummond dispensed peanuts from a booth festooned with this popular fruit. Mr. Hyde and Miss Kate Rogers§made the children happy by selling them a choice variety of toys, and candy at another booth was sold in large quantities by Miss Mamie Rogers and Miss Lilie Faulkner. Three booths were devoted to an elegant variety ofifaney and toilet articles which were disposed of by Miss Eliza Patterson, Miss Nellie Olmstead, Mrs. Dr. Keeler, and Mrs. D. A. St. John. Miss Fanny Hoyt had two booths under her supervis- ion filled with exhibits from her own artistic brush, and of which there was a large but most exquisite variety. She was assisted by Miss Agnes Flemming. The supper room for which purpose the large chapel of the church was devoted, was thrown open, and hundreds formed and partook of a most beautiful and bountiful repast. The arrangements of this depart- ment were under the supervision of Mrs. Edwin Hoyt, assisted by Mrs. Joseph Sil- liman. The Misses Comstock, Mrs. B. P. Mead, Mrs. James Hoyt, Miss Price, Mrs. John Selleck and others. Mr. Child was present with his pony cart and gave over a hundred children a drive upon the Ridge, much to their delight. During the evening Prof. Ferris, organist of the Bap- tist church in Stamford, rendered some choice selections on the church organ to quite a company who repaired to the building to rest and hear him. The ladies all feel very happy over the success of their efforts. For the past six months each member of the society has been very busy working for the end so pleasantly realized. The work was performed through various committees, of which Mrs. F. E. Hopkins was president. Mrs. H. B. Rogers effi- ciently superintended the final arrange- ments, and generously devoted her time in purchasing materials. The profits will count up into the hundreds. The much talked of handicap bicycle race came off under favorable conditions ast Tuesday. Willie Lee won first prize, a gold medal. William Patterson, second, a bicycle lantern. Lewis Sutton, third, 9. bicycle bell. The distance raced was four and five-Sixth miles. Let. Messenger mode the fine record of eighteen minutes and fifty-two seconds. Dr. and Mrs. Carlton, of Haverhill, Mass, are visiting Mr. Henry Olmstead, Mrs. Carlton’s father. The Rev. Dr. L’er— kins, Mr. Olmstead’s brothenin-law, is under the same hospitable roof. The Methodist Sunday School had. a. stormy day for its picnic at Roton Pomt last Friday. Rev. John W. Ballantine, of Ridgefield, exchanged white with Mr. Hopkins last Sunday morning. Mr. Raymond, proprietor of the Union fish market has bought a sail boat which he will proceed to load to the gunwales with the choicest piscatorial morsels. Mr. Frederick Lockwood has sold his spacious and sightly house to Mr. Downey who has occupied it as a summer resi- dence for a number of seasons. Building is quite active and several new houses are going up, and others are prom- ised in the near future. Mrs. and Miss Silliman from Warsaw, N. Y., are boarding at Miss Raymond’s, on Railroad avenue. i‘ Av Vk A. Fire-Eating Editor. The Centralia, Missouri, Guard is hav- ing a fight with a local contemporary and a “combine” of county ofiicials, and from what Editor Rodemeyer, of the Guard, says, he has made his enemies desperate. He says :— In its defence the Guard has unearthed scvei'alttiings that the combine did not antiCipate, and, as a consequence, they are mad. In fact the Guard has stirred up a regular volcano of blistering, devouring wrath, which has spewed out the scum that hovers over the stagnant pool of de- pravity, lurking in _the most loathsome depths of the abyss or the infernal regions where lielt'sh imps caronse in deVilisli glee amid the slimy serpents and foul odors of eternal damnation, where all the schemes of darkness are con- cooled and distilled into the brains of human emissaries who work out the will of their master, the fiend of darkness. The Guard has nothing to take back, no- thing to apotogiZe for, and if all the devils in hell are ea'lcd into the service of the combine, and the entire contents of the internal regions dumped on the editor, we shall not swerve 0r shrink from the task we have undertaken. With right and justice on our side, a clear conscience, a resolute will and a strong right arm, v . shout defiance and bid the dance go on, eVen though it be the dance of death. NORWALK GAZETTE, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 14, 1889. SO UTII-NOR WALK Franklin K. Smith, cashier of the Sprague National Bank, of Brooklyn, and his wife, paid a visit to his uncle and other relatives on Washington street the first of this week. Mr. Samuel Raymond, of the firm of Raymond & Comstock, has been seriously indisposed for a week, but seems now to be convalescent. The ball club which came from up from New York on the 3.02 train on Saturday, ought hereafter to have a freight car for their use, as they annoyed the passengers by keeping the front door open and stami- ing in the passageway almost the entire distance. The new electric lights are now burn- ing, but are not as bright as some ex- pected, but probably fully as good as promised. Rev. Mr. Dunning preached in the Bap- tist tabernacle, on Sunday evening. Mrs. Delano has resigned her pOSition as president of the \Vomen’s Christian Temperance Union, in a very loving letter to the association. Afully attended and interesting meet- ing of the U. G. T. R. A. was held on Sunday afternoon, conducted by Mrs. Ellendorf. The continued interest man- ifested, and the signing of the pledge by men who thus take the first step for refor- mation, is good evidence that great good is being accomplished. Until Sunday week the meetings to in- vor the constitutional amendment have been planned, managed, paid for and pre- sided over only by members of the Third party. It was a relief to hear a few words from non-partisan temperance advocates, though presided over by a bitter partisan. -—-——-—< ’>——-——-—— The Public W111 Appreciate It... The public are indebted to the Royal Baking Powder Company not more for having perfected and prepared a leavening agent that is pure and wholesome beyond a question than for its exposures, so boldly made, of the numerous impure. Unadul- ated and injurious articles that are sold under the name of baking powders, bread preparations, etc., throughout the coun- try. In making these exposures the com- pany has, of course, made itself the target for all sorts of counter attacks, but the animus of these attacks has been perfectly understood by the general public, and by their very virulence have served to more promenently call attention to the good work of the “Royal” Company. Ordinary adulterations such as are found in coffee, spices, etc., although they are swindles in a commercial sense, are often tolorated because they do not particularly affect the health of the consumer. But when an article like baking powder, that is relied upon for the healthful prepara- tion of almost every meal, is so made as to carry highly injurious if no rankly poisonous elements into our daily food, it is the duty of the public authorities to take cognizance of it. In this fight for pure food made by the “Royal” Company. it is to be noticed that the most trustworthy scientific authorities are emphatically upon its side. In all the contests of this company with the slum and other impure baking powders the re- sult has proved that every statement made by the Royal Baking Powder Company, both as to the purity of its own and the adulteration of other baking powders of the market, was fully authorized by the most competent chemical and medical authorities of the country. In this contest two facts have been pretty conclusively settled in the minds of the public—the first that the Royal Company has found the means, and uses them to make a chemically pure article of food; and the other that the market is full of pmsonous, alum and other adulterated baking powders which. no matter how strongly endorsed by “commercial” chem- ists, are to be studiously avoided. A pure baking powder is one of the chief aids to the cook in preparing perfect and wholesome food. The recent contro- versy_in the press has left it no longer a question with those who desire purity and wholesomeness of food what baking pow- der they shall use: .
