The republicans of the borough will hold their caucus for the nomination of borough officers, at the Town house, this (Wednesday) evening, at 8 o’clock. Miss Elizabeth ,A. Pardee, after thirty- threc years’ servlée in the public schools of New York, has come into possession of a valuable estate and will now take a rest. Phoenix Engine Company early this (Wednesday) morning started for Terry— town to participate in the grand firemen’s parade. They expect to have a good time. It now believed that the yacht Leo, lost with nine men aboard as stated in Mon- day's Star, was blown up on Lake Eric on Sunday afternoon by naptha stored for fuel. Will. Smith, for two or three years in the employ of Spencer, the Main street jeweler, but now located in Taunton, Mass., was in town last week, calling on old friends. Mrs. Hiram Snell, of Malad, Idaho, has given birth to sextets, three boys and three girls. They weigh eight pounds a1- together. Allare bright and hearty and promise to live. Landlord Walz, of. the Mahackemo Hotel, returned from a visit to his parents in France, early last Monday, on the steamship LaBurgoyne. He had been absent ten weeks. The Y. M. C. A. ball club played the Belden Hill} club, the umpire and a large contingent from Cobble Hill, Monday, on the fair grOunds, and were defeated by the score of 22 to 21. H. C. Mosher, the cigar dealer, having accumulated: certificates that represented the sale of 50,000 cigarettes, went to New York recently, and received as a prize a handsome gold watch. With all the democrats Zopenly against t and the republicans declining to do any- thing in its favor, the proposed prohibi- tion amendment in Connecticut is having a rather hard time.-—- Washington Star. Sidney K. Spencer and Nathan Curtis, former Housatonic conductors, are said to be braking on New England freights learning the road. They will probably be advanced as soon as the road is thorough- ly learned. When Miss Clara Louise Kellogg says she never expects to hear in this world or the next such music as she heard at Bay- reuth in the Wagner opera, where does she expect to go ? No, my son, it is not a disgrace to be a party-worker. Some men think so, but never until after they get what they want themselves, or until they find out they can never get anything. George R. Byington, Patent Attorney of Washington, has just secured a Canadi- an Trade Mark for the new and wonder- ful Green Mountain grape owned by the Stephen Hoyt’stons, of New Canaan. Some of the bittcrest opponents of granting liberal pensions to soldiers are wealthy young snobs \r ho inherited their riches from their parents who made it while the soldiers were fighting to save the country. The Y. M. C. A. base ball club will go to Danbury to-morrow (Thursday) to play the second game of the series with the Danbury Y. M. C. A. boys for the bag of bats ofl’ered by Smith Bros., the shoe dealers. ~____ The Washington Post says that Senator and Mrs. Hawley have not yet returned to Washington, but will soon do so. They will spend the winter at their former residence, 2030 I street, which they have leased for four years. The Derby Transcript came out on Monday With a new and most becoming dress of type. The Transcript is a neat and sprightly paper and deserves the prosperity it seems to have. Burgess Frank has received and accept- ed the 500 feet of Maltese Cross rubber hose, for the fire department, which is at the house of Hope hose company. Mr. Frank pronounces it the best hose ever owned by the department. Mr. and Mrs. George B. Middlebrook will leave their summer residence at New Canaan the present week and remove to Washington.

The jury in the Durham bastardy case of Carey vs. Merwin, which was on trial at Haddam for several days last week, reported a disagreement Saturday, six being for acquittal and five for conviction, one man having been dismissed from the jury for having expressed opinions. The jury was discharged. The body of John Hamilton, found drowned at Bridgeport Friday, bears cuts in the breast and on the throat. He was last seen with his brother, both under the influence of liquor. The spot where Ham- ilton was found drowned is the same place where a Hungarian perished under suspi- cious circumstances last June. At a meeting of the board of education a vote was passed that all scholars now at tending school in other districts of the town than their own, without proper per- mission, must apply to the board for such permission on or before October 1st,, at which date an adjourned meeting will be held to act upon the applications. A son was born to Mr. and Mrs. Brice Moses a few days since in Washington, D. C. This elevates Mr. and Mrs. James E. Hoyt to the exalted dignity of grand- parents. Mr. Moses is bookkeeper at the National Bank of the Republic, and his wife will be remembered by her many Norwalk friends as nee Miss Minnie Hoyt. Nathan Shelton, of Omaha, Nev., has just bought a farm in Anne Arundel county, Maryland, and a number of other capitalists from Omaha and elsewhere out west are negotiating for property in the same vicinity. The old rule seems to be reversed. Is the west coming east to grow up with the country. fl “Allow me to congratulate you upon the excellent report you gave of the Second Conn. H. A. regiment at Kent, on the 11th inst. The GAZETTE is in great demand among the boys of the regiment in this region. Will you kindly send me another copy.” Thus writes a veteran and official of the regiment. The new opera, “The Drum Major,” at the Casino, has fallen flat and its non- success is attributed to the lack of anima— tion and mistaken ideas of the singers. A critic says: “Miss Pauline Hall played the part of Stella with the most unbending dignity.” Of course she did; but doesn’t he know why ? Let him try getting fat and wearing tight corsets with stifi steels, then see how agile and kittenish he can be.——P03t. Hon. Bartlett Dent, aged sixty, died at his home in Middletown, Sept. 2151;, from paralysis. He represented the town in the legislature in 1862; was mayor in 1866 to 1868; postmaster from 1869 to 1876; chair- man republican statc central committee 1869 to 1873, and delegate to the republi- can national convention in 1872. Peace to his ashes. Our readers should not fail to remember the reopening concert to be given at the Methodist church this (Wednesday) evening. An attractive programme _has been prepared, ,consistingl of recitations and vocal and instrumental music. Doors open at 7:30, concert to commence at 8 o’clock. Admission 25 cents. The veterans of the Fourteenth regi- ment of volunteers met at Guilford Tues- day. The following oflicers were elected: Vice-president, John McCarthy, of New Haven; treasurer, George N. Brigham, of Rockville; secretary, J. W. Knowlton; chaplain, Henry S. Stevens, of Washing- ton. Dinner was served to three hundred veterans and their wives. Superintendent James S. Gilmore, of the Union Manufacturing company, and Miss Harriet A. Rogers, were married on Thursday evening at the bride’s home on South Union avenue, by Rev. C. M. Sel- leck. A small but select party of invited guests witnessed the ceremony and par- took of the wedding feast, after which the happy pair departed on their wedding tour. A Christian missionary says he knows that China could land 5,000,000 fighting men gin San Francisco, and yet refrains from retaliating upon Americans for their anti-Chinese policy, preferring to wait for the potent effect of sober second thought and the persuasive influence of moral opinion. What must that missionary think of the educative result of the philanthropy of Confucius as compared with that of the tenets of the Christian religion. Conductor Henry Thomas, of the Housatonic system, resigned his position on Saturday, and will at once enter into business in Bridgeport. Mr. Thomas had charge of the 10:10 a. m. train from Bridgeport to Pittsfield, returning at 9:20 p. m. He has been employed 0n the road a great many years, and has been a first- class man. Conductor Gurdoa Coit will possibly be transferred to the run'that Conductor Thomas has given up. Whatever other mistakes Corporal Tan- ner may have committed when commis- siqner, he was dead right in insisting that the affidavit of a private soldier was worth as much as that of a commissioned officer, and it will not redound to either the credit or statesmanship of Secretary Noble in revoking it. The idea that the affidavit of a commissioned officer is as strong as that of two private soldiers is repugnant to the average intelligence and patriotism of the country. The verdict in the case of Eva Hamilton will grieve no one who has the welfare of society at heart. Whatever may be said of the weakness and folly of men—and in all conscience they are often weak, foolish and criminal enough—there is a class of women of whom Eva Hamilton is a bold, bad and conspicuous example, whose pe- culiar fascinations act like a virus in the blood, and who should, when known, be effectively squelclied. Two boys, Richard Shortelle and Ed- ward Fogarty, found a 200-pound stur- geon in a shallow pool in the Nangatuck river, just below Ansonia. They slipped a rope over its tail, and pulled the fish out on the bank. A local fish dealer bought it at once. This is the third sturgeon that has been caught there in recent years. The fish come up the Housatonic river, and are stranded by the receding tides. Bass and salmon weighing from twenty- five to fifty pounds are frequently caught in the same way. There was a quiet wedding last Wed. nesday evening at the new house of Capt. Alfred A. Chinery, corner of Catherine and Grand streets, the most interested parties being Mr. Alfred A. Chinery, Jr., and Miss Christine E. Stephens. The cere- mony was performed by the Rev. George Van Alstyne of the Methodist church, and the only guests were the immediate rela- tions. The presents were numerous and handsome, among them being a dozen solid silver teaspoons and sugar spoon, a gift from the stitchers at the shirt factory. The W. C. T. U. of Connecticut will hold a state mass meeting in Armory Hall, Hartford, Wednesday Oct. 2d., during the day and evening. Rev. Alpheus Winter, secretary of the state amendment com- mittee, and Mrs. S. S. Fessendcn will speak in the morning. Rev. Graham Taylor, of Hartford, Mrs. Clara 0. Hofi- man, president of the Missouri W. C. T. U., and ex-Gov. St. John of Kansas will speak in the afternoon. Frances E. Wil- lard, president of the national W. C. T. U., will speak in the evening. Lily Ru- nals, the well known New York soprano, will sing in the afternoon and evening. The meeting will undoubtedly be the largest and most interesting heldin the state during the amendment campaign. The reunion of the blue and the gray on the Chicamauga battle-ground was by all. odds the most successful affair of the kind yet attempted. The address of Gov. J. B. Gordon was in the best possible spirit and he aroused the patriotism of the 25,000 people present when he pledged for the gray their eternal fealty to the American constitution. Gen. Rosecrans feelingly referred to the cheering sight of Federal and Confederate soldiers sitting side by side, and he prayed God that th last vestige of feeling caused by the war might soon be eradicated. More cases of sick headache, bilious ness, constipation, can be cured in less time, with less medicine, and for less money" by using Carter’s Little Liver Pills, than by any other means. An Enterprising Republican Journal, especially devoted to Local News and Interests. Mr' H. B. Wigham has so far recovered from, his recent illness as to be able to walkl a. short distance. On Thursday he visited the school-house, but it will he someftime before he will be able to re- sume" his duties at the head of the school. Cards are out announcing the marriage of Miss H. Virginia Hayward, of Wash- ington, D. C., to Mr. George W. Beatty, of ti same city, to be solemnized it the resi _ nce of the bride’s parents on Octo- ber 3d. Miss Hayward was a former res- ident of Norwalk, and is a sister of Mrs. H. S. Byington. Mr. Beatty is a relative of the Norwalk family of that name. -In the Art Dept. window of the Bos- ton Store we notice with pleasure a crayon portrait of the late Wm. D. Gregory, of Wilton, who for so many years was Secy. of the Fairfield County Agricultural So- ciety. The likeness is perfect and carries us back several years when Whitney was in all his glory, making portraits of our Governor’s, Selectmen and townsmen, pictures that have never been excelled. _ We welcome him back to Norwalk, and learn that he and his son, Will, are going to make Norwalk their permanent home again. The engagement of the Rev. Thomas K. Noble with the congregation on the Green, will end with the coming Sabbath. He will preach his closing sermon in the morning and in the evening hold a Memo- rial Praise Service in honor of Dr. Hora- tiua Bonar, the. noble preacher and gifted poet, who has recently entered into his rest. Dr. Bonar has written some of the sweetest hymns in the English language, and these hymns will be sung by the con- gregation, and there will be special music by the choir, in connection with a brief sketch of the life and labors of this conse- crated man of God, by Dr. Noble. —-Seven writers—clergymen, college professors and public men, some of them specialists of acknowledged standing-— have associated themselves to discuss special questions of social interest and import, and to prepare papers to be, after- wards given to the public from time to time in the pages of The Century. The writers include the Rev. Professor Shields of Princeton, Bishop Potter of New York, .thq ”v. Dr. T. T. Munger of New Ha- vcn3=~t Hon. SetIrLow of Brooklyn, and Professor Ely of the John Hopkins Uni- versity. For each paper the author will be responsible, but he will have had the benefit of the criticism of the other mem- bers of the group before giving it final form. The opening paper will be printed in the November Century. The true inwardness of the Noble-Tan- ner incident is said to be the determina- tion of the gallant corporal to run his de- partment after his own sense of duty and interpretation of the pension laws, and that Secretary Noble sought to overrule and control his action, as he is constantly doing with all the heads of the several di- visions of the interior department. Hence the friction and the charge of “insubordi— nation” on Tanner’s part made to the President by the Secretary. When the full truth is placed before the country, the verdict will not add lustre to the “big- head” reputation already enjoyed by See rotary Noble, who though neither politic- cian or statesman is a lawyer of good re- pute and a man fairly bowed down with the weight of empire. The Sentinel has gone into the ghost story business and tells the following good one :—“Way up in the quiet little town of Wilton, where a person would never dream of such a thing as a ghost, there is areal ghost, at least everybody says so. Every night after dark, at about the same hour‘each night, a snow-white object, about six feet in length, and the true form of a man, makes its appearance in the northeast corner of Professor Tanner's yard. It moves about from place to place the whole night long, but never gets from three to four feet from where it first ap— pears. It will probably be investigated in a short time and the facts made known, but as yet no one has been brave enough to approach it. Its appearance at this place cannot be accounted for, as so far as known Mr. Tanner has never murdered anyone or caused anyone to be murdered.” —A new serial story, entitled “Heron’s Wife,” by Etta W. Pierce, is begun in the October number of Frank Leslie’s Popular Monthly. The color, picturesqueness and dramatic force of this novelist have al- ready given her a reputation as a sort of American Ouida—a reputation which this latest work from her pen will fully sustain. The literary and artistic features of this number of the magazine are even more profuse than usual. Among the illustra- ted articles are, “Horse racing in Colonial New York,” by John Austin Stevens; “A Quaint Old Japanese Town” (Nikko,) by Mabel Loomis Todd ; “Cardinal Lavrgerie and the African Slave-trade,” by Mark F. Vallette; “Climbing the Peak of Tenor- iffc.”; “Dicken’s London,” including a icture of the recently demolished old hite Hart Inn, Southwark, the scene of the first meeting of those two immortals, Mr. Pickwick and Sam Weller; “Trout and Salmon Fishing,” an admirable out- door paper, by Ripley Hitchcock; “The California Elephant,” by C. F. Holder; and Sioux City, Iowa,” by John H. Pat- terson. There are short stories by Made- leine Vinton Dahlgren, Frances Hodgson Burnett, Virginia Baker, Lucy Hooper, and others, and poems by Douglas Sladen and t he late F.S. Saltus. N ORWALK, CONN, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1889. On Wednesday night the steamer Puri- tan struck the schooner Wildfire oflf Black Rock. .The schoonei’s starboard side was stove in, her house and stern were smashed, and her cathead and fore and main rigging carried away. She is an- chored at City Island for repairs. On the same night the steamer Old Colony struck an unknown schooner, causing slight damage. Henry Johnson, son of the late LcGrand Johnson, of West Norwalk, died in In- dianapolis, 111., Tuesday night, of typhoid fever. He was 41 years of age, and leaves a wife. Mr. Johnson was for some years at C. R. Bennett’s dry goods store in South Norwalk, and later carried on the grocery business in Stamford. At the time of his death he was traveling sales- man fora Newark harness firm. The fu- neral was attended from his late home in West Norwalk, Sunday, Rev. Olin Hal- ock of Trinity church, South Norwalk, ofllciating. The remains were interred in the family plot, at Rowayton, with Ma- sonic honors. While the courts in New York are still considering the question whether death by electricity is swift and sure, men con- tinue to be killed in a twinkling by acci- dental contact with electric wires. In a recent case that attracted wide attention the victim received 1,500 volts. The other daya man who had slipped on an iron awning rail in aNew York city street, and caught at the overhead wires for support, received about 750 volts and seem to have been killed instantly. It is calculated that anything above 500 volts is perilous, the degree differing with the physical condition of the object of experiment, the the state of the atmosphere and other variable incidents. It ought not to take the courts long to decide the question be- fore them from the evidence produced from everyday life, whether the testimony of the experts is contradictory or not. Dana GAZETTE :—As to the conundrum or mystery of the Peat Swamp snake story, I give it up. But in regard to the lost hat I do know much, as I was awak- ened by the voice of a woman, calling, “Mr. Fitch, Mr. Fitch,some one is pound- ing 'at the door as if to break it down,” and as the sleep of the laboring man is sweet, UnoleWalter was hard to arouse from his blissful dreams. I was quietly sleeping on a lounge, for the house was full of the Colycrs, including Walter’s little playmate, Georgie—God bless him. Uncle Walter, in his usual generous spirit, quickly rose and hastened to answer to the call for help, but his design was pros- trated by a commanding voice calling out, “Walter, Walter, come in and shut the door; don’t be a fool ; how do you know who they are r” So Walter was obliged to choke down his ever burning love to help strangers when in trouble, and al- though he had lent and lost a lantern on a similar occasion, this would in no wise have deterred him from risking another. As to his sleeping with a gun under his pillow, No! Uncle Walter never does that. But he has an eye to self preserva- tiOn and the preservation of his chickens and fruit, and the initiated know that in a closet hard by the bedroom are a gun and a silent bull-dog, and Walter knows how to use them. He is brave and mus- cular, and needs no sympathy or help in daylight, and depends for them on his own physical process. Vrsrron. The Gaznr'rn’s senior “devil” is “getting a big boy now” and will soon be a man. A few days ago, at noon-time, he was dis- covered by the foreman in the boiler room on the basement floor, sitting on a box with his head between his hands, his face as pale as a ghost, evidently in great dis- tress and "heaving up J onah” in the most vigorous fashion. “ What’s the matter, ’Zeke ?” queried the foreman. “Oh, I’m so-o-o sick—woo-o-o-up l” replied the boy, bringing to light the innermost secrets of his interior department. The odor of tobacco smoke that pervaded the base- ment, and a clay pipe about half full of still burning fine-cut, which was discov- ered on the box beside the sufferer told the story. The foreman, who had been there himself, simply smiled, advised the kid to wait until he got a little older, and left him to recover from his first attempt at smoking. The next noon, on his re- turn from dinner he again went to the boiler room, and, behold! the boy was there in the same position and in the same condition, with the same pipe still hot beside him. The following day the boy was caught actually smoking, and though somewhat pale and qualmish,‘,he kept his dinner down. On the fourth day he smoked a pipe half full, and now he can smoke at his work without getting sick. With a’pcrseverance which, if it had been exercised in another direction, would have made an expert printer of him in six months, he had won a victory. He had fought against nature until, wea‘ried and disgusted, she had ceased her friendly protests and withdrawn from the conflict, leaving him in full possession of the field to boast of having acquired the accom- plishment so vitally essential to the pro- gressive young American who is in a hurry to “be a man.” TWO DOLLARS A YEAR NUMBER 89. The Wealthy Vulgarian. It is a great credit to a man to be suc- cessful in his business and accumulate wealth. The successful man is entitled to and receives the admiration of his fellows. It is only the very 'worst class of human- 1ty that howl against the well-to-do. There is, however, a great :difference] be-’ tween the man of wealth, who has accu- mulated it by honest industry and the exercise of creditable methods, and who does not believe that wealth carries with it the rank of royalty, and the rich snob who offensively makes a vulgar display of his riches. The'former has sense enough to know that there is as much worth, as much intelligence, as much honesty in the man of meagre means, the hard-working mechanic, the plodding farmer, as there mm the millionaire. The wealthy vul- garian has no sympathy with the masses of the 2599191.. To him purpleland fine linen have a rank that puts itslwearer above the man of honest toil, and it is this kind of a feeling on the part :of too many wealthy people and their ostenta- tious display of wealth that stirs the poorer class :of people to resentment. Neither Wealth nor poverty ‘is a crime. The standard of good citizenship should be measured by duty, well and faithfully done. The employe who is honest, in- dustrious, who fulfills his duty to himsef, his family and his neighbors, is entitled to all the honor that attaches to his wealthy employer. —-———<§ The Weekly newspaper. At the: meeting of the Conn. Weekly Press association held in Winsted on Mon- day last, U. S. Senator Platt delivered an address on Public Officials and the Press, in which occurred the following sensible allusions to the weekly newspaper: “Perhaps early experience enables me to sympathize With and understand those who conduct the weekly press, as my later experience enables me to sympathize With and understand those who figure as public officials._ Fifty years ago my only com‘ municat‘ion with the world outside of a Litchheld county village was by means of a weekly newspaper. Some 35 years ago I was the proprietor, publisher, and editor of one. I do not forget the impres- srons of either period.” ‘s’l‘he Litchfield Enquirer, which a week ly mail supplied to the little village of Washington, was both a mystery and in- spiration—a mystery to me as electric cars and telephones and phonegraph and graphaphones are now. I both wondered how it was made and how it influenced the community. That it was read I need not say—not as we now read the daily papers. There was no “skimming” its columns: but after the day’s work was done, and the evening came on, each member of the family in turn read it through by the aid of the tallow candle, word for word, from the headline to the last standing advertisement: and during the whole week all that it contained was the subject of family and social discus- sron.” “I think that weekly papers are so read now. I know that when I get far away from the daily paper, and far from the whirl and distracting rush of events in these late days, and find in some quiet home the local weekly paper, I read it as I read it when aboy. The village cor- respondence, _thc comparatively trifling personal gossip, the chunks of wisdom which some Village Solon tumbles into the column of ‘Letters from the People,’ the advertisements as well as the hushed news of the world, and the editorial thought— all interest me. Even the pictures which adorn the advertisements of patent medi- cmes. have a taking look. And so I am convrnced that the weekly newspaper is the only newspaper that is reall d by word and line for line.” yrea word ‘- In The Mineral World. In the northern center of Alabama,on the main line pf the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad, thirty miles south of Anmston and thirty miles east of Birming- ham, lies Nottingham, the next coming citv of that wonderful iron-producing State. If: present railroad facilities and others new building, its forests of yellow pine, its im- mense hematite iron ore and limestone de- posrts, Its proximity to coal and its agricul- tural. resources, make it the most promising location in that State, and destined in the near future to rival its phenomenal neigh- bors, .Birmingham and Anniston. Many en- terprises are already located there and nego- tiations are in progress for two Blast F ur— naces,.a Cotton and Silk Mill, Water and electric Light Plant and many other indus- tries. The enterprises now existing there to- gether With those now under negotiation, and the influx of population consequent there- upon, coupled with the willingness of the Nottmgham Iron and Land Company to assrst any new enterprises desirous of there locating, must and will add largely to the yalue of Nottingham real estate if we may judge from the example of Birmingham, whose population increased from 3,000 in 1§83 to 40,000 in January, 1889, and of An- mston,which in the last three years has in- creased from 2,300 to 14,000. The Birming- ham Land Co. has paid 500 per cent. per annum for the past six years. The Nailing. ham Iron and Land Company, at its office, No. 47 Broadway, New York City, is now prepared to sell lots in Nottingham. Further particulars can be obtained of HENRY C.
