SO U TEN 0R WALK

In the near future the city fire depart-
ment will provide an entertainment for
the public which may occupy one week,
and from which they hope to realize fifty

' thousand dollars.

Another fully attended and interesting
meeting of the Union Gospel Temperance
Reform Association was held on Sunday
afternoon. Short and apprOpriate talks
were given by many present. The selec-
tion of hymns and tunes were also appro-
priate, and the congregation joined in the
singing with vigor and delight. Mr.
Edward Fox argued strongly “that it was
not the rum sellers fault if young men be-
came drunkards. If they had moral
courage and self respect to keep away
from temptation they would be safe from
such influences.” Then let the pulpit and
all laborers in the temperance cause flash
and thunder against the drink habit as
never before. Pass around the pledge.
Reprove, exhort, persuade, and the drunk-
ard will be reclaimed and the young man
saved. Albert Griffin says of efforts to
promote temperance: “Confidence games
are reprehensible even when played by
those who imagine themselves to be the
salt of the earth, and neither white ribbons
nor sex can justify attempts to promote a
a holy cause by vicious methods.” The
question is shall evil be done that good
may come.

There are thousands of voters in the
towu of Norwalk who would be glad if
the traffic in liquors could be prohibited,
but the one hundred and twenty-six
Third party men are so wise that they are
trying to defeat any advance in that line
by nominating a Third party ticket com.
posed only of saints.

Heretofore it has been the rule for the
mayor or common council to instruct the
police in their duties, but it appears by
notice in the Sentinel that real estate
agents take the responsibility of doing so
without let or hindrance.

The present week promises to be one of
intense interest to some people. The
post office removal has been settled to the
satisfaction of all, except those who hoped
to obtain the consent of the post office
authorities slyly and a few speculators in
real estate. A city meeting is to be held
on Monday night regarding streets and
water. On Tuesday night occurs the
caucuses for town and city officers by the
republicans, and on Wednesday evening
the democratic caucus takes places. Who
shall be nominated ? is the great question.
Most of the present officers decline to
serve another year. This, with the new
mode of casting ballots causes much com-
ment and is thought to make the result
very uncertain.

Rev. Mr. Biddle returned to his charge
in the Congregational church and occu-
pied the pulpit on Sunday, much to the
gratification and profit of his parishioners.

BEDDING.

Rev. D. Taylor has been away on 'his
vacation two Sundays. He is visiting
friends in western New York. He is ex-
pected home the last of the week.

Mrs. Rev. D. Taylor will give a lecture
on “What I saw in South America.” at the
Methodist church next Thursday evening.
If stormy, the next evening. Mrs. Taylor
was a missionary for two years at Con-
ceptiOn, Chili. There will also be music
by home talent. The lecture is in behalf

of the ob lll'CIl.

The St. John farm was sold at auction
' last Thursday, and was bid off by Mr. S.
B. Gorham for $1,000.

At the democratic caucus last Thursday
evening, Charles Sanford and James J.
Rider were nominated for selectmen, B.
Sanford for town clerk, J. R. Sanford
and L. B. Benedict for assessors and treas-
urer, Stephen Sanford and Burr Mills for
board of relief.

The work on the Putnam Camp Ground
is being pushed with much energy. There
are many v15itors.

The Republicans will hold their caucus
this evening.

The New Discovery.

You have heard your friends and neigh-
bors talking about it. You may yourself
be one of the many who know from_ per-
sonal experience just how good a th1ug it
is. If you have ever tried it, you are one
of its staunch friends, because the won-
derful thing about it is, that when once
given a trial, Dr. King’s New Discovery
ever after holds a place in the house. If
you have never used it and should be af-
flicted with a cough, cold or any throat,
lung or chest trouble, secure a bottle at
once and give it a fair trial. It is guarn
anteed every time, or money refunded.
Trial bottles free at H. R. Hale’s drug

store.

Advice to Mothers.

Are you disturbed at night_and broken of

with pain of cutting teeth ? If so send at once
and geta. bottle of Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing
Syrup for Children Teething. Its _value is
calculable. It will relieve the poor little suf-
terer immediately. Dependu on it, mothers,,
there is no mistake about it. 1: cures dysen-,

NEW-UANAAM - 7 1 _

Mr. L. M. Monroe returned last week
from New Britain, where he has been
spending a few days with his daughter,
Mrs. H. B. Humason. ‘

The organ recital in St. Mark’s church
by Mr. Warren, organist of Grace church,
New York, which was given on Thursday
evening last, was a great success. The
church was crowded, the parish made a
hundred and fifty dollars, and last, but by
no means least, the strains of Miss Ida
Hubbell’s voice, who is the leading so-
prano in Grace church, and who sang on
this occasion, still lingers in our ears.

Dr. W. W. Clark, of Danbury, spoke in
Raymond’s hall, last evening, in behalf of
the prohibitory amendment and local
option. He was eloquent and forcible.

Rev. F. E. Hopkins, pastor of the Con-
gregational church, sailed away' on the
City of Paris from New York, to-day. He
is the guest of Mr. Albert Comstock, a
member of his church, and during the trip
they will visit the Paris exposition, Lon-
don, and other points of interest both in
England and on the continent. They
expect to return from Antwerp on the
steamer Westernland, about the middle of
November. Thus Mr. Hopkins closes his
third year, and will begin the fourth year
of his pastorate in New Canaan under the
happiest auspices.

Rev. M. M. Fathcrgill returned with his
family from Canada, where he has been
spending his vacation, last Saturday.

Mrs. Albert Comstoek returned to New
Haven Saturday last, where shewill spend
the winter.

Mr. Fabricotti and family returned to
their town house, last week.

The engagement of Willard Parker, J r.,
and Miss Skiddy of Stamford, is an-
nounced.

The grass no longer grows in the way
to the cider mills.

Rev. F. E. Hopkins spoke in the Con-
gregational church in Saybrook last Wed-
nesday evening, in favor of the prohibitory
amendment. Mr. Hopkins is not a third
party man, but an amendmentist.

Mrs. Annie L. Lockwood, widow of the
late John W. Lockwood, returned with
her Sister, Miss Lloyd, to her former home
near Philadelphia, on Saturday last.

Golden Pumpkins and their products
shed their halo about our farm houses and
upon the pantry shelves.

Mr. F. W. Lockwood has rented the
house formerly occupied by his brother,
for the winter season. His family is ex-
pected to arrive from abroad early in
October.

Mr. Edwin Hoyt spent the whole of last
week in Geneva and Rochester, N. Y., in
the interest of the extensive nursery busi-
ness of Stephen Hoyt’s Sons.

Mrs. E. F Ayres’ school opened under
the most favorable auspices, on the 24th
ult. ’

The burgesses are considering the ad-
visability of adding a number of lamps to
the present number, which makes our
streets at night much brighter.

The foliage hereabouts is already tinged
with autumnal glories, and in a fortnight
the woods will be clothed in splendor.
Our city population miss many of the
beauties of country scenery by returning to

their homes before the leaves fall.

In The Mineral World.

In the northern center of Alabama,on the
main line of the East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia Railroad, thirty miles south of
Anniston and thirty miles east of Birming-
ham, lies Nottingham, the next coming city
of that wonderful iron-producing State. Its
present railroad facilities and others new
building, its forests of yellow pine, its im-
mense hematite iron ore and limestone de-
posits, its proximity to coal and 1ts 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 Fur—
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
Nottingham Iron and Land Company to
assist any new enterprises desirous of there
locating, must and will add largely to the
value of Nottingham real estate if we may
judge from the example of Birmingham,
whose population increased from 3,000 in
1883 to 40,000 in January, 1889, and of An-
niston,which in the last three years has in-
creased from 2,300 to 14,000. The Birming-
ham Land 00. has paid 500 per cent. per
annum for the past six years. The Notting-
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.
PARDEE, 838 Chapel St., New Haven,
Conn.,who has been appointed General
Agent for Connecticut.
4t37 GEORGE WYKES, J r., Secretary.

 

A woman in great distress and very bad
grammar wrote to the Kansas city author-
ities saying a box containing one thousand
crisp new bank-notes of $100 each had
been brought to her house by a wild-eyed
man and left in her care, and she feared
something might happen to her if she kept
the money. As no great robberies have
occurred the wild-eyed man is thought to
be the newspaper reporter who inherited
a fortune, and the woman who was afraid
to keep afirm grip on $100,000 when it
was thrust upon her will soon be wander-
ing about the earth with an eye equally
wild.

AAk

A Sound Legal Opinion.

E. Bainbridge, Munday Esq., County
Atty., Clay 00., Texas, says : “Have used
Electric Bitters with most happy results.
My brother also, was very low with male-
rial fever and jaundice, but was cured by
timely use of this medicine. Am satisfied
Electric Bitters saved his life.”

Mr. D. I. Wilcoxson, of Horse Cave,
Ky., adds a like testimony, saying: ‘He
positively believes he would have died,
had it not been for Electric Bitters.

This great remedy will ward off, as
well as cure, all malarial diseases, and for
all kidney, liver and stomach disorders
stands unequalled. Price 50c. and $1. at
H. R. Hale’s.
