NORWALK GAZETTE,’WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 11,
l WESTPORIZ '
Rev. Mr. _Miller-, of New, Haven,
preached acceptably, morning and even-
ing, in Memorial church, Sunday.
Mr. James Donlou, of King street, has
gone extensively into the culture of
French violets for the New York market.
The death and burial, in New Haven,
of General Stephen R. Smith, recalls the
period of a little more than twenty years
ago, when his brother, the late Rev. John
Eaton Smith, was rector of Memorial
church. That was a bright rectorship
and the light of the countenance of the
dead General on his visits here added to
its lustre;
The sudden disappearance of snow, and
the rain succeeding a couple of days of
fair weather, make it evident that the
predictions of very wise men as to a pros-
pective severe winter have not as yet, met
many facts to warrant their assertions.
The biggest hog in Westport has been
found. It belongs to Thomas Hcflcrman,
and weighed, at the butchering, 365
pounds—a pound for each day in the year.
There are several other good hogs as to
size to be heard from.
The funeral of the late Abner Alvord
took place on Monday of last week from
his late residence in Greens Farms. The
Rev. Mr. Hubbell, of Southport, and Rev.
B. J. Relyea, of the Farms, ofllciatcd.
The burial was in the old Greens Farms
cemetery, Messrs. A. W., L. B., and H.
B. Jennings, David Baker, Charles Meeker
and William Gray acting as bearers. The
death of Mr. Alvord at the great age of 87
years, suggests a thought as to the dif.
fcreuce there is in things to-day as to
what they were nearly fifty years ago,
notably in the duration of life. In 1843
the oldest person in Westport was Miss
Phebe Knapp, aunt to Daniel Dennis and
George Nash and Mrs. Freelore Hurlbutt.
She was considered, as she really was,
very old—89, but to-day there are five
persons here who are 89, four who are 90
and over, one in his 100th year, and one,
Mrs. Huldah Rockwell, who is in her
101st. These facts suggest pleasant
thoughts and in some measure warrant
the remark that, if we keep on in this
way another 47 years, centenarians will
become a settled element of our popula-
tion. '
It is said Mr. Alexis S. Downs, super—
intendent of the Horse railroad, has it in
mind to build a new dwelling for himself.
On account of the rain only a few mem-
bers of the Terpsichoreau Club filled the
appointment to meet Thursday evening at
the house of Dr. and Mrs. L. T. Day.
Another meeting has been called. .
The Board of Trade met Thursday
evening, but for want of a quorum trans-
acted no business. There is much on the
presiding officer’s table that should be
promptly attended to.
' The Congregational church society are
talking, earnestly, it is said, about intro-
ducing a first class choir organ, with two
banks of keys and pedal sub-bass. Such
an instrument would be not only in keep-
ing with the religious spirit manifested in
that church at every service, but would
serve to enhance it. The church’s audi—
orium is the largest in town.
Rev. A. N. Lewis and family have re-
moved to New Haven.
There is a holiday look to most of the
stores in the village.
Six members of the Jesup family buried
in Evergreen cemetery some years ago,
have been disinterred and placed in Wil-
low Brook.

The ladies of the church of the Assump

fair hold in National hall.

Our Bridgeport Letter.
I wrote you in a previous letter giving
you an account of the Boys’ club in this
city, but there is another Boys’ club that
I cannot speak so highlv of. For this
seems to be a burglar boys’ club, and
they hadaplace of meeting where they
made their plans in secret, and carried
them out by robbing clothing stores,
saloons and other places. The police and
public were startled by quite a number of
robberies and it was some time before
they could get track of the robbers. It
was when a clothing store was robbed of
a large amount of goods that they were
detected. It would seem impossible that
boys:of suchztender ages,and brought upzin
an enlightened community, could be so
depraved as to engage in such wicked
business. These boys have all been
arrested and bound over for trial. The
parents of these boys felt keenly the dis-
grace that their sons have brought upon
them.
A very interesting meeting of the
Christian Endeavor union was held last
Monday evening at the First Baptist
church. About 400 members were pres-
ent. Societies of Stratford, Monroe,
Fairfield and Southport were represented,
also the 12 societies of this city. A very
able address was made by the Rev. C. E.
Torrey of Norwalk, which was listened to
by the large audience present with
marked attention. We shall be glad to
welcome Mr. Torrey again to this city.
A devotional service was led by Miss
Minnie St. John of this city, a song ser-
vice was conducted by P. H. Haven. and
remarks were made by the Rev. W.V.
Garner pastor of the church, and others.
The death of Gen. Smith of New
Haven, is much lamented by his many
friends here. He had been connected
with 001. T. L. 'Watson, in the banking
business, in this city, for the last ten
years, and was considered a very upright
man in all his business relations. Col.
Watson speaks of him in the highest
terms, and greatly explores his death.
Col. Watson sent some beautiful flowers
and attended the funeral with his staff.
At Hawes Opera House,Dcccmber 17th,
the Choml Society will present for the
first time in this city. A. R. Gant’s canta,
Joan of Are, a work abounding in effec-
tive and pleasing solos and choruses,
which it is expected will give quiteas
great satisfaction to the public as the
“Rose Maiden” did last season.
A pretty home wedding took place
Thursday afternoon at the residence of
Mr. Chas. Wolff, of this city. The bride
was Miss Alice Wolff, the groom Mr.
William B. Gilbert, also of this city.
Rev. D. H. E. Hovey performed the mar-
riage ceremony.
Mrs. Chas. Miller and her little child
were badly burned on Tuesday evening
at their residence on South avenue. Mrs.
Miller was alone at the time of the acci-
dent occurred, with the little two year old
baby in her arms, when she was attacked
with vertigo. In her unconcmusncss she
upset the lamp, which exploded and set
fire to her clothing. She was terribly
burned. Herscreams brought assistance
and the fire was extinguished. The little
one was seriously burned. The mother
died at the hospital on Sunday.
Dr. chpy and Miss Boughton formerly
of this city, were married in Brooklyn on
Wednesday last by the Rev. Dr. Bradley.
Among the guests from Bridgeport were
Mr. and Mrs John chpy, Mr. and Mrs,
W. M. Dorcmus and Dr. and Mrs. C. B.
Baker.
The Sea Side club has voted to build a
club house on their newly purchased lot,
corner of State and Lafayette street, to
cost about $30,000, A building committee
consisting of Col. F. A. Mason, Henry
Atwatei', E. R. Ives, T. B. DcForest and
Curtis Thompson, was appointed.
A. W. Perrin, general passenger agent
of the Housnlonic road, is quite ill with
malarial fever at his residence on State
street.
Judge A. B. Beers is confined to his
house with ei'ysipelas.
Capt. J. H. Moore who has conducted
the ship yard in East Bridgeport for many
years, did on Saturday last, aged 82years.
He built the bark Bridgeport and other
large vessels and was esteemed by the
community.

W. R. White, of Chester, sends the fol-
lowuig, whose value he has tested : In a
report to the French academy of medi-
cine. Dr. Dietholl stated that the vapor of
liquid tar and turpentine would dissolve
the fibrinous tissues which choke up the
threat in cronp and diphtheria. Be de-
scribed thc proce‘Ss of treatment asfol-
lows: Take a teaspoon each of turpen-
tine and liquid tar; put them into a tin
pan or cup, and set fire to the mixture,
taking care to have a larger pan under. it
as a safeguard against the spread of the
flames. A dense, resinous smoke arises,
making the room dark. The patient im-
mediately seems to experience relief; the
choking and male stop; the patient falls
into a. slumber and seems to inhale “the
smoke with pleasure. The fibrinous mem-
brane soon becomes detached and the
patient coughs up microbes, which,.whcn
caught in a glass, may be seen to; dissolve
in the smoke. is the course of three
days the patient entirely recovers. This
remidy has proved successful in many
instances, and householders everywhere
should bear it in mind. Aprominentgen-
tleman in Charleston, who applied the
treatment to his child, after the sufferer
was given up as incurable by his family
physician, suggests that, before burning
the ingredients named, all such articles
as Would be likely to be injured by the
thick smoke should be removed or covered
up closely.—Springfiebl Republican.

New York Fashions.
Evening dresses for young ladies are
made of gauze tulle, net, crepe dc Chine
or light quality silk and in simple outlines
may show the influence of classic thought.
Diaphanous materials are frequently
Spangled and quite often from the front and
side breadths, leaving the back plain, where
handsome sashes fill out the skirt and
wound softly and sometimes in entire
width about the waist, may impart the
quaintncss now desirable. Flowers are
used with more or less profusion or rib-
bcns may complete the picture. Older
people wear brocades united with velvet.
plain silks or saline of new finish to which
the light materials just mentioned are of-
ten added as accessories, while here es-
pecially are employed those elegant pas-
sementeries and cmbroidcrics whether of
silk or metal or both, which are a special
feature of the time.
Trains which are more worn than for-
merly, are either square or round. Cor-
sages show all possible variety as to the
cut of necks and every shape and height
is in style, a dressy effect being given by
a half low cut filled in with lace in cases
where protection is desirable. Sleeves
are of all lengths and shapes. It is a favor-
ite idea to make them of some light ma-
terial that drapes the cor-sage also and
while on this subject it may be added that
in many instances, the waists of gowns are
so draped as to quite conceal the outlines
\of the form. This is a consequence of the
classic turn that Fashion has taken and is
very convenient for unsymmetrical figures.
Beneath outer additions however, waists
are close fitting and the majority even,
still made to display proportions. Prin-
cess or pointed backs lead, now that bus-
tles are not worn.
:Evening shoes are of undressed kid to
match gloves and tan remains the leading
color because it can be worn with any cos-
tume. Pole gray matches .pale gray
gloves; white undressed kid also corres-
ponds with white gloves, but a change is
given by shoes that match the costume,
while the gloves are tan, gray or white.
Stockings match shoes which are half high
for dinner or afternoon or slippers for
evening, both with sharp pointed toes and
Louis Quinze heels Elegant afternoon
and dinner dresses are of fine cloth braid-
ed and sometimes in such extravagance as
to completely overrun the material. For
braiding in general there is almost a furor
and it can hardly be misplaced, appearing
on silks, satins or velvet in evening
gowns.
Evening boas of lace or flowers at the
Opera are often now replaced by those of
crcpc lissc or tulle. These delicate pro-
tections to bare necks are in exceeding
good taste and are really quite serviceable
as well.
Supper jackets of black velvet made
without darts, but fitted to the figure by
a deeply curved seam under the arm are
relieved by colored silk fronts and with
sleeves to the elbow, are worn with under
sleeves. They are effective substitutes for
dress waists that have become shabby.
Girdlcs of gold or silver gnloon are worn
with evening dresses made in Empire
style. LUCY Curran.
