LL
Our Bridgeport Letter.
Rev. Charles Ray Palmer, pastor of the
North Congregational church, in this city,
ailcd on Wednesday last on the steamer
Bi‘itannic to attend the opening of the
Mansfield college, Oxford, England. The
corporation of Yale University, commis—
sioned Mr. Palmer, one 'Of its members, to
represent them, and to carry a new degree
to the new college. Before his departure
Mr. Palmer preached in his own church a
historical sermon, showing the rise of
Puritanism, and its progress in the thir-
teentli and fourteenth centuries. The
sermon was so much admired that by re-
quest he repeated it in the South Congre-
gational church, Sunday evening, Sept.,
3011), to a large congregation, and at the
close a resolution was adopted extending
through Mr. Palmer, sympathy and con—
gratulations to their Congregational breth-
ren in Old England.

On last Thursday evening last, Mr. F
A. .Chaffe was united in marriage to Miss
Lillian E Paddock, at the residence of the
bride’s parents on Park street,by the Rev.
George L. Thompson. The bride is a
beautiful young lady and has many
friends, and with her husband received
the congratulations and good wishes of all

' present at this happy event. They were
the recipients of many valuable presents,

and after a wedding supper, they depart-,

id for New York. During their absence
they will visit Washington and other
places in the south, returning about the
lst, of November.

I do not wonder that Judge Selleck
was filled with wrathful indignation at the
insult Offered him by some foolish per-
sons in daubing his statue with paint.
Perhaps the Judge has offended some of
the Villains that he has given theirjnst
deserts, in his oflicial capacity, for cer-
tainly no one having any claim to decency
would think of perpertrating such an out-
rage on any one.

The Rambling Wheelmen Of this city
will hold their second annual lantern
parade on Friday evening. The club has
now a membership of over 70, and is one
of the l:ading clubs of the state. One day
last week about 18 of the club members
participated in a run to South Nurwalk‘,
taking dinner at the Mahackemo Hotel.
This run proved to be one of the most en-
joyable of the season, and the kindness of
of Messrs. Newcomb & Walz of the hotel,
will never be forgotten. The rooms of
the club are at NO. 348 Main street, Where
any wheelmen will find a mast hearty
welcome.

The will of the late Capt. John Brooks
has been decided invalid by the supreme
court. This decision has caused genuine
sensation, because it was generally sup-
posed bv the public at large that the will
had been sustained by the courts. The
Brooks homestead had been sold to Dr.
I. De Ver Warner, and he had presented
the same to the Y. M. C. A. and they had
commenced building on the Site. Serious
complications are likely to ensue from
this last decision. The directors voted to
suspend operations until the matter could
be adjusted. Captain Brooks gave most
of his property to the Presbyterian church
Of this city. It is claimed the new Sun-
day school building and parsonage has
been built by money from another source.
It is to he hoped there will be a satisfac-
tory settlement to all parties concerned.

Deacon Hannon Lane, who died last
week of heart disease, is deserving of
more than a passing notice. He had been
affected with heart trouble for some time,
and often remarked to his wife and only
daughter, who survive him, that he ex-
pected to die suddenly, btit he did not
fear death and was ready to cross the
dark river whenever the Lord so willed it.
He had been a deacon in the Park street
Congregational church for many years,
and by his Godly living and earnest
Christian work for the Master had won
for him a high Christian character in the
church and community. Some of his best
work has been done in the courtly jail.
He had led the noon day Sunday service
there for nearly a quarter of a century, and
many a poor plisoner will remember his
earnest and pathetic words in their behalf.
It was his delight to tell them of the love
Of Jesus and point out to them the new
life as taught in the scriptures. He will
be greatly missed in this field of labor.
His good works will follow him.

The following letters will explain them-
selves: . '

New York Fashions.

flats and bonnets for ordinary wear are
of felt and the latter are very small and
close to the head. Variety must be looked
for in the former, and is found in very
broad brimmed felts or furry beavers with
crowns of the same or felt; in shapes hav-
ing the brims rolled in many fanciful
ways, in turbans, toques, English walking
and sailor hats, these last being a novelty
in winter. It is on hats moreover, that
Odd ideas find room for display and ex-
travaganzas as well. Here, the rage for
black birds can display itself and every day
brings something more bizarre in this
line, where stiff, pointed quill feathers or
spread out wings, shoot upward and out-
ward with grotesque result. Happy the
woman however, who can sport one or
more blackbirds and in the midst of bright
or delicate surroundings they are a wierd
contrast, or placed on entirely black hats
are worn with aesthetic gowns or cloaks.
Black is a leading element in every de-
partment of dress, and in every depart-
ment of dress, and in millinery, colors on
black produce many striking effects, as
where such contrasts as canary and bright
green, or old rose and blue, are placed on
a sombre foundation, or where bright or
delicate foundations are toned down by
black. Enormous bows of wide black
ribbon give a dash to large hats or with
greater refinement, atrimming Of from one
to two and a half inch black velvet ribbon
imparts due gravity to a bright bonnet.
Two and a half inches is indeed the pop-
ular width for bonnet ribbon, narrowuess
being preferable for heavy winter text-
ures such as satin black velvet, double-
faced satin or gros grain and satin in
double weave. Contrasts are frequent or
two tones. Birds and feathers are shown
without end for trimming and through-
out there is perpetual flavor Of artificial-
ness, since feathenbands are dyed to or-
der, while birds are made to suit require-
ment, all sorts and sizes being dyed biack.
To this the humming-bird is an exception
and in clusters they perch, or nestle pretty
in death as in life. The leading col-
ors in millinery are Eiffel rust, old rose,
grayish blue, green, plum, brilliant red,
heliotrope and canary, the latter being
very effective on dark or black founda-
tions. Some new out-door garments are
almost combination costumes and quite
cover the dress below. Velvet and heavy
cloth are cut in long, close shapes at the
back, with great variety of idea as to the
shape of sleeves, but a prominent contour
shows wing sleeves over close ones below
and sometimes the sleeves are of vel-
vet with cloth garment. Velvet is every-
where indeed a favorite combination,
while more frequently than one would
suppose, the new standard Velutina is
substituted. Having given satisfaction in
the past there is a steady demand for it
that every year grows larger. Embroidv
cry and braiding are lavishly used on
cloaks and fur is combined with trimming
of every description.

NOTES.

Undressed kid gloves are the only kind
now sold for evening and the favorite
shades are tan, gray or white with deli-
cate stitching. Morning gloves are in
darker tan, gray or white, with delicate
stitching. Morning gloves are in darker
tan, gray or rust shades and from four to
five button length, though the Harris but.
tonless sack glove is much liked, because
wrinkling at the wrist and easily drawn
011' or put on. Fashionable shoppers stop
now at 865 Broadway, for a look at Har-
ris Bros. new glove establishment which
is in their special line what Tiffany’s is to
the jewelry trade. Nothing is kept
throughout its spacious extent but gloves,
and in the unexampled opportunity thus
given for selection, every lady finds some-
thing to suit not only herself, but her hus-
band and children, since all the needs of
both the latter are fully provided for.
While bargains are always to be had and
gloves of all grades, yet the fine custom
peculiar to this leading house, demands
the very best and latest and their impor-
tations therefore give the keynote to what
New York’s most stylish class demands.

Black galloons, passementeric, or braids
are the trimmings most used on colors
and black is the favorite combination.
Black velvet ribbon is largely used and
later on, black furs will add their quota of
effectiveness.

Buttons are either very small and in
conspicuous or else extremely large and
placed only as ornaments.

To Miss Lucy W—, the answer is given
that fish-net over silk is being made for
winter dresses and will be worn for
evening in pale or bright colors. Black
net is best over black and each color on
its own tone. LUCY CARTER.

 

Merit WinS.

We desire to say to our citizens, that
for years we have been selling Dr. King’s
New Discovery for Consumption, Dr.
King’s New Life Pills, Bucklen’s Arnica
Salve and Electric Bitters, and have never
handled remedies that sell as well, or that
have given such universal satisfaction.
We do not hesitate to guarantee them
every time, and we stand ready to refund
the purchase price, if satisfactory results
do not follow their use. These remedies
have won their great popularity purely on
their merits. H. R. Hale druggists.

Yet what more could we hope for? Do we not

arises from this one prevailing complaint?
Rheumatism, liver complaint and urinary troubles
are nothing more nor less than symptoms of
chronic indigestion and dyspepsia. Remove the
cause and the effect disappears. Clear out the
