The funeral oers :William H. Thomas,
whose death at the age of 66 years oc—
curred on Wednesday, was held from her
late residence on Compo street, Friday,
Rev. A. N. Lewis, of Memorial church,
officiated. The remains were taken to
Willow Brook cemetery forburial, Messrs.
'W. E. Sturges A. S. Hurlbutt, P. G. San-
ford and W. J. Finch acting as bearers.
The attendance was large, many friends
from New York, where deceased had
dwelt many years, being present.
Burglars forced an entrance to the
ladies’ parlor in the basement of Christ
church some night during the past week.
An investigation by the ladies showed
that a general prowling about all the apart-
ments had been made. A coat, which
the rector was in the habit of wearing
under his robes, and a small broom used
by him were taken. The rascals were
doubtless in pursuit of the communion
silver and the silverware owned by the
ladies, the whole valued at $300. Had
they taken to pains to inquire they might
have learned that those articles were some
distance off in quarters proof against pur-
lorners.
During the mouth of October rain fell
on fourteen days. There were two thun-
der showers and fifteen clear days. The
average temperature at sunrise was 46 ° ,
noon 61°, sunset 46°. The highest at
sunrise was, on the lst, 64°; the lowest,
17th, 33°; highest at noon, 20th, 73°;
lowest, 29th, 52°; highest at sunset, 2d,
78 °; lowest, 2lst, 48° .

Main street is in a chaotic slate, great
piles of stones encumbcriug the passage

to a vote taken in the annual town meet-
ing. Property owners have disagreed as
to the methods employed and hence the
conditions. Should wintersct in people

A Great Invention. .
One of the greatest inventions of the
present age, says a late Hartford paper is
the Timby system of heating, cooling and
ventilation, by which miles of houses,
schools, churches, factories, etc, can be
heated to any required temperature with
hot air by a single plant at a fraction of the
present cost of heating either by steam or
local heaters. And the same plant and pro-
cess at even less cost will cool the same num-
ber of buildings to any required tempera-
ture during the heated season, and at the
same time by the some process any one of
the buildings can be disinfected without the
odors going into any of the other buildings
-on the circuit, and all this by simply turn-
ing a button on the wall of the building at
tached to the plant.

A Steam Servant Girl.
Mrs. W. A. Cockran, of Shelbyville,
Ind, has placed her name on the roll with
the great inventors of the world, the result
of her genius being a practical dishwashing
machine. She began experimenting ten
years ago. Her husband left her financially
unable fora number of years to complete
her undertakings. By the aid of friends,
however she finally succeeded, and has a
machine designed to do the work now done
by the thousand of girls and women the land
over. The machine is wonderful and in-
tricate. It is made in diflercnt sizes, for
families and hotel purposes. It is also
made both for hand and steam power, and
is cabable of washing, scalding, rinsing, and
drying from five to twenty dozen dishes, of
all shapes and sizes, in two minutes, the
number, of course depending upon the size
of the machine. Mrs. Cockran has recently
disposed of her invention to an illinois mau-
ufacturing firm for a large sum, and will
reCeive a good royalty on all machines sold.

Legend on Witchcraft.
EDS. GAZET'rEz—In reading the account
of the strange apparition in Wilton a few
weeks ago, I was inclined to consider it a
veritable ghost, and probably the spirit of
either the old wizard, Uncle Bill Sturdc—
vant, or his witch wife Aunt Siby], who
flourished abut the middle of the last
century, in Wilton, then :1 Parish of Nor-
walk. ThCSe troublesome creatures lived
by their pranks. They were a terror to
the whole community; l'cw persons dared
refuse them anything they asked for, but
old Tom Hollil‘ird, a large farmer who
lived in “Hollibird’s Hole,” now Hurl-
butt street, made up his mind not to yield
all their demands, and now the trouble
begins. Old Bill was refused pork, and
the next morning Uncle Tom found five of
his hogs on the great girt (or beam) in his
barn, so that the floor had to be piled with
straw in order that the hogs ccu=d be
taken down. Aunt Sib. was refused but—
ter and directly one of the cows gave
bloody milk, and the milk from the other
cows. would yield no cream. Milk-pans
would be turned bottom up in the night,
all because Aunt Sit. was refused butter.
I might go on and relate numerous other
things related to me by my grandmother,
who was granddaughter of Uncle Tom.
There were certain methods adopted to
keep witches from enterin g a house. They
could not stop over a broomstick, nor pass
undera horse-shoe if it was nailed with
corks out and toe up. (It may be well for
those who use these scarecrows to keep off
the witches, to observe the old method.)
When a witch was seated in a chair, if any
sharp instrument was stuck in the chair
bottom the occupant was stuck to the
chair. The horseshoe and broomstick
had failed, but the chair dodge had not.
Uncle Tom had a maiden daughter as
plucky as her father, and one cold morn-
ing Uncle Bill came in. Aunt Molly set a
chair for him close to a great blazing
wood fire, and then steallhily stuck a fork
in the bottom of the chair, and Uncle Bill
was impaled. So Aunt Molly piled on the
wood and kept him almost roasting until
he begged to be released. This ended his
visits, but Aunt Sib. continued her unwel-
come calls. CENTENARIAN.

The Saving Habit.
The great advantage of the building as—
socmtiou or co-opcrative bank is that. it
tends to popularize thrift. If a person
resolutely set himself to lay aside a cer-
tain amount every week, putting it into
the bank, where it cannot be easily reach—
ed, he may accumulate nearly as readily
as under the co-operative banking system
but, unless one’s habits of saving are very
strong and firmly established, he is not
likely to lay aside his money with unvary-
ing regularity. He will skip a few weeks,
here and there, and perhaps eventually
drop out from the list of depositors alto-
gether. . But the co-operativc bank gives
its members an inspiration to save, which
they can get in no other way. Having
subscribed for a certain number of its
shares, upon which one must make pay-
ments regularly, he finds a constant pres-
sure upon him to save in order to meet
the payments. In this way he cultivates
habits of thrift,which makes it easy to
deny himself needless expenditures. .Thc
meetings of the organization also tend to
stimulate the members if their earnestness
flags. The experiences of olhers; the
knowledge that one of his neighbors is
buying a house and paying for it, and the
discussion of matters in which he has a
personal interest, tend to keep up the
spirit and to stimulate him to new excr—
tions. When he has accumulated his first
hundred dollars, it seems so much easier
to get the second, that he has more cour—
age to try, and, when he has laid aside a
few hundreds, saving becomes a habit
with him, and he and his associates unite
to make popular the thrift which is neither
natural to most people nor popular with
the masses.——Housc Seeker. l

To Users of
Royal Baking Powder.
The public is warned against the
stories and so-called kitchen tests of
traveling baking powder agents. The
alleged tests are dishonest tricks
and the stories are false, their object
being to injure the reputation of the
Royal Baking Powder, and intro-
duce an inferior article in its place.
The market is full of cheaply
made baking powders, many of them
composed of alum, the proprietors
of which scruple at no trick, false-
hood or illegitimate scheme, in the
effort to sell them to consumers”
Housekeepers will not need the
tests of baking powder itinerants to
teach them as to the qualities of
baking powder, as they are already
fully assured of the great superiority
ofa the Royal Baking Powder in
strength, purity and wholesomergrss
by the best of all tests, the test of
their own long, practical use of it
in the preparation of the daily food.
Protection from alum baking pow-
ders can be had only by declining
to accept any substitute for the
ROyal Baking Powder. Experience
has proved this powder of the high-
est usefulness, and the Government
tests have established it as the pur-
est, strongest and most wholesome
baking powder in the world.
