A meeting of the ways and means com-
! mittee appointed by tthoard of Trade to
set in motion and carry to completion the
machinery for holding the proposed fair
3 to begin Jan. 7 1890. and to continue four
days, was held in Temperance hall Thurs-
day evening. Owing to various causes,
lsickncss of prominent members of the
board, and meetings of other societies on
that night the number of those who ap.
pearcd was smaller than the importance
'of the subject demanded. The action
taken was very good so far as it went,
and, before adjournment it was unani-
‘ mously agreed to have another meeting
this (Wednesday) afternoon withall the
committees, in Temperance hall, and that
the action taken be reviewed and the
number and scope of the committees be
enlarged;
The committee on printing as it now
stands embraces F. M. Raymond. J. S
Jones, J. S Wood, G. A. Darrow, W. H.
Marvin, ’l‘. E. King, C. Harris. They
were empowered to print and post 750
circulars. The number should have been
twice 750.
On decoration, Miss Grace King, Mrs.
' 'l‘. E. King, Mrs._J. D. Wood, Miss Edith
Jones, Captain H. P. Burr, Miss Hattie
F. Nash, Miss Nellie Hurlbntt, Mrs.
Howard Staples, Miss Annie Bradley, Mrs.
F. N. Taylor, Mrs. Charles Fable, Mr.
Cornelius Jellifl', Mr. John J. Marvin.
On entertainment, the five original ways
and means committees with the ten ladies
added later and Messrs. J. D. Wood, G.
A. Darrow, C. Harris, R. T. Lees, C. H.
Kcmpcr J12, Mrs. C. H. Taylor, J. D.
Wood, F. H. Nash, H. P. iBurr, A. S.
Hurlbutt, C. Harris, H. Lyon. T. E. King,
H. A. Ogden, Miss Fannie Gray. These
two committees should, and probably will
be enlarged to double the number as they
now stand. Among the features of the
fair proposed is an Old Folks concert, and
it may be there will be a desire to repeat
some of the tableaux and charadcs by
amateurs which have given so much pleas-
ure at entertainments of late in the village.
John P. Mills who was found Tuesday
dead in his bed, was not far from 50 years
of age. He was a native of Poplar Plains
district, and at one time was a man of
considerable busmcss activity. He mar-
ried the eldest daughter of Amos Barnes.
The funeral was held on Thursday, and
the burial in the cemetery at Poplar
Plains.
The snow of Saturday being practically
the first of the season, was a surprise in
Thomas Glynn and Lloyd Nash are
making special preparations to house extra

An audience of nearly 300 persons in
Nationalhall last Tuesday evening listened
to two rccitations by Miss Helen Foster, a
resident amateur. The impression this
young lady made by her style and gesture
is, that nothing of the kind to excel them
has been presented here during the past.
two years. In that time we have had an
artist, Miss Justine Ingersol twice, and an
amateur, Miss Agnes Hyde twice, which
fact enhances the compliment which de-
servcdly falls to Miss Foster.
Patrick Loughlin, a respected citizen,
aged 65 years, died early Monday morn-
ing from prostration caused by exposure
and over-exertion on Saturday during the
snow storm. His house caught fire and
was in danger of destruction, and the
excitement precipitated a complaint to
which he was subject. His funeral will

Our Bridgeport Letter.
A delightful musical was held last
Thursday morning at the residence of Dr.
and Mrs. C. S. Hoag, on Lafayette street.
A large number of ladies of musical talent
were present. including some of our best
known society ladies in the city. The
soloists were some of our most prominent
singers such as Mrs. H. B. Drew, Mrs.
W. E. Secley, Mrs. Dr. C. B. Adams,
Miss Susie Hawley, Miss Jennie Lent,
Miss Adelaide Haight and Miss Alice
Fletcher, soprano of the United Church
of New Haven. Mr. S. S. Sanford was
the accompanist.
The Consolidated railroad company are
contemplating to raise or lower the track
of the Fairficld avenue crossing just south
of the Depot in tlns city. This crossing
is a very dangerous one, as it leads to the
approach of the lower bridge, to East
Bridgeport. and the travel to and from is
very great.
A new and novel way of advertising has
been introduced by W. B. Hall 85 Co., of
this City. On Thursday last, a special
train down the Housatonic Road brought
a large number of passengers from the
different towns on the line of the railroad
to the store of W. B. Hall & 00., where
they made some very handsome pur-
chases from this dry goods firm. While
Mr. Hall did not absolutely charter a
train for his special benefit, he agreed
that, anyone purchasing $10 worth of
goods, he would give a return ticket. It
is said that Hall & Co. sold a large amount
the way that it deve10pe(l. It began at
11 a. m., and continued nine hours ccasmg
at an average depth of six inches. After
6 p. m. horse cars ceased to run. With a
liberahty which entitled the management
of the horse railroad to the gift of a medal
made of bull leather wcll tanned, a sleigh-
with two seats was sent to the station at
6:30 p. m., to bring to the village fifteen
passengers. Eight of these succeeded in
boarding the sleigh. Several unfortunates
ploddcd 2 miles through the snow to their
destination, their only consolation being
the saving of a five cent fare each, and the
pleasure, if so it may be called. of recount-
ing the incidents of the blizzard of 1888.
It was observed that that the road’s super-
intendent took good care to ride in the
sleigh himSelf.
[Your “correspondent” was one of the
seven who walked]
It is said that the. Consolidator! railroad
company have bought of John Coffee at
Saugatuck for $5,000, his property west
of the depot, near the company’s line, and
that the buildings on it will be removed.
Also, that other real estate near there is
about to be purchased by them. This, if
true, corroborates the report that the
company is in earnest in the matter of
building four tracks through this sectiOu.
Mr. Lloyd Nash and Rev. J. E. Coley
are entitled to the thanks of the public,
especially church goers, for breaking
paths in the snow Sunday morning on
both sides of the village bridge.
Mr. Charles Fable has sold his share of
the undertaking business under the firm
of Driscoll & Fable, to the brothers Daniel
and Cornelius Driscoll, who will continue
it at the old stand. Mr. Fable will obtain
new stock and fixtures and maintain the
same line on his own account.
To-morrow evening in Assembly hall
the pupils of Staplcs’ High School will
give an entertainment.
The entertainment by amateurs at New
tional hall for the benefit of the village
Library and Reading Room netted about
$60. The ladies and gentlemen whose
names were given last week acquitted
themselves creditably. Special mention
should be made of the play “A Mouse
Trap,” in which Miss Florence Allen of
Stratford took the leading part, the
brides ever seen here, “Statuary,” and
“The Corn Husking.” The gypsy in cos-
tume with song by Miss Nellie Hurlbutt,‘
and the comedy ”Who’s Who?" in which
Mr. Gould Jellilf of Saugatuck made a
fine impression -

probable that the large firms such as
those of The D. M. Read 00., The Cope-

special .train for their benefit, as these
well known firms are likely to be up to
the times, as all of them are enterprising
concerns.
Mrs. Rowe, a worthy widow lady, has
been Very much interested in the Beulah
Mission, in this city. She keeps a re-
spectable boarding house, and had as one
of her boarders, a man, giving his name
as Dr. Harry T. F. O’Donnell, represent-
ing himself to be a very religious and
pious man, and greatly interested in mis-
sionary work. Mrs. Rowe had occasion
to draw $200 from the bank, and this man
O’Donnell accompanied her to the bank to
draw the money. After she had received
the money, O’Donnell look it to count for
her, and instead of returning it to her, he
hurriedly left the bank, and this is the last
that has been seen of him. If this impos-
tcr should be caught he will be severely
dealt with. To take advantage of and to
rob a poor widow in such a heartless man-
ner, seems to be almost incredible. After
leaving the bank it is supposed he went
to the Depot and took the first train for
New York. Ofllcurs arc in search of} him,
and it is hoped that he will be arrested
and brought back to this city, where jus-
tice will be meted out to him with an
unspsring hand. Mrs. Rowe is complete-
ly broken down on account of the loss of
her hard earned money.
1 had a pleasant call last week, from
Judge Andrew Selleck and the Hon. W.
C. Street.
Rev. Dr. H. N. Powers, formerly rector
of Christ Church, in this city, now of
Piermont. on the Hudson, is lying dan-
gerously ill at his home. Dr. Powers has
many friends in this city. He was rector
of Christ Church for about ten years. Dr.
Powers has a brother living in Westport,
who is a well known physician.
Deacon A. L. Winton, of the Park
Street Church, was married last. Wednes-
day, in Danbury, to Mrs. Eliza B. Win-
ton, the widow of his brother, the late
George Winton, of this city.
Albert Eamcs, Park Commissioner, died
Saturday last, aged 78 years. Mr. Eames
was one of our best citizens and filled
positions of trust. He was president of
the Bridgeport Horse Rail Road company
at the time of his death.
Mr. Patrick Wade, Sr., died last week,
at his residence, in this city, aged 76
years. Mr. Wade was one of our old and
most honored citichs. He came to
Bridgeport in 1849, and, with his brother,
Stephen, was engaged in building. Some
of the best buildings in East Bridgeportwere
built by these two brothers. Mr. Wade
had a large number of friends, and was
greatly respected by the community as an
honorable and upright man. His word
was as good as his.bond. Patrick Wade,
jr., of the Standard Association is one of
his sons, and occupies the 'position as
foreman of the job printing department,
which position he has held for the:.past 25
years, having learned his trade in the
Farmer office. He was one of the late
Editor-Candce’s young men 9 Mr. Candee.
seeing his fitness for this position, made
him foreman of the job department,
which position he still holds with credit
to himself, and to his associates. It was
characteristic of Mr. Cundce to keep his
employees“ and to promote them when-
ever an opportunity offered. The Stan-
dard Association have men in their em-
ploy who have been in their employ all
the way from 10 to 40 years.
Conductor A. S. Beers, of the Nauga-
tuck Road, was taken suddenly ill on last
Saturday afternoon. He left for Winsted

Ansonia. He died the same evening at 7
p. m. He has been conductor on the

an uncle to Judge A. B. Beers, and was
one of the most popular conductors on
the road.
A letter has been received from Miss

Friday afternoon Rev. D. Taylor, asist-
ed by Rev. W. J. Jennings, officiated at
the funeral of Mr. Samuel B. Osborn, who
died the preceding '1‘ucsday,{agcd 46 years
and 6 months. There was a very large
attendance. The burial was in the Ridge
cemetery. Mr. Osborn’s health had been
failing for several months, latterly very
rapidly, and he was cut down in the midst
of his years by consumption. He wasa
man of great vigor and energy, and was
highly esteemed and honored by his fel-
low townsmen. He was one the promin-
ent young men of the place and an official
of the town. He was a member of the
Methodist church, and died in peace.
Great is the sympathy of the people for his
Widow, daughter and son, who survive
him. .
Last- Thursday forcnoon the Clover
Farm Creamery building took fire from
the smoke stack in the roof. The fire was
subdued with considerable difficulty.
Several men, who had come with milk,
lent valuable assistance. The damage
was small.

W. H. Hill had obtained for blastingrocks,
and which had been placed near a fire in
the field south of his house for warming

scvcnty‘ panes of glass in the front of his
house were shattered.
Hon. Thomas Sanford came on Satur-

the work on my farm. It is the finest
medicine ever made.”
Jesse Middlewurt, Decatur, Ohio,vsays:
“Had it not been for Dr. King’s New "Dis-

doctors. Am now in best of health.”
