VOLUME XC.
To-day' the GAZETTE begins Its rrinetieth
year of life and usefulness.
Ninety years has it faitlrlully chron-
icled the doings and the sayings anti the
happenings that make history. and yet a
l‘ccut'd of career would make a
history in itself by no means devoid of
liS‘ t.\\'ll
interest and irrslructiveness. "
It may be stated an interesting
factthat during Very nearly one-half of
the Gazrz'r'ra’s long term of existence it-
lras been continually under its present
management, a longer term of consccrrtive
pet's-trial adrrrirristration than any other
jourealist iu the state has attained, ex-
cepting, perhaps, Alfred E. Burr, of the
Hartford Times. ’
We rejoice in that We have the corr-
Eitrttul good will and patronage of so
large, intelligent and worthy a reading
cousmurncy; that the Gazr'rrr; is now as
it long has been, a Welcome visitor to t:re
fu-ail'llSiutlt‘S of so many of our best fatn-
lilt‘S;
{is
than it was one. yea r ago, and larger :1
year ago than the previous year. We
shall continue in the future as it] the past,
our best efforts to make it an honest,
clean, elevated and r-lr:v.-liirrg newspaper
for the family to read. Since the birth of
the republican party it has advocated the
principles of that party, believing them
best for the welfare of our country. It
desires and strives to deserve the support
and patronage of men of that party, yet
we are not so intensely partisan as to deny
merit where merit exists, and credit where
credit is due, to any and all who may
differ from our views. No man of what—
ever sect or party has ever been refused a
hearing in ortr columns when desired.
Above all. the ec'ilorial opinions and
columns of the GAZETTE are not and never
have been for sale and sold,‘as others are
known to have been, to competing ean_
didates for office. Money is a poWer and
to be desired, but we want no man‘s cash
for such prostitution. Our editorial let-
ters from the National t'apital, which for
more than forty years have been such an
acceptable feature to so nrany of our read-
ers, we pilipflsc to continue during the
present session .of Congress. We
expect to contsivnrregthose valuable, and to
many, exceedingly interesting articles and
illustrations of new and desirable features
of house architeerr..e and decora—
tion. Influe, we purp()5e, in eVery way
possible, to make the GAZETTE Worthy of
the generous support its hosts of old and
new friends have so cordially bestowed.
During the long period since the GA-
151115 first saw the light, the first year of
the century, what marvelous changes
have been wrought! Nations and men
and institutions have come and gone, ytt
the paper goes on and is destined to go on
after those whose eyes now scan its pages
and he who indires these lines, are sleep-
mg in the voiceless grave. This fact
should admonish writer and reader alike,
to the cultivation of all that is noble, geri-
er'r-us and kindly in our intercourse with
our fellows. So with malice toward
none and charity for all” the old GAZETTE
starts forth on its ninetieth volume and
its journey forward to the rottnding of 0.
Completed century in its age, hoping and
striving that it and the Nation may grow
better and stronger as it grows Older.
Thus to all our kind readers, to all our
townsrncn, fellow journalists, one and all,
we extend our most cordial greetings and
wish them abundant prosperity rind a
Happy New Year.

. Our Banks.
The Central National Bank leads off
with a 4 per cent. semi-annual dividend.
The Bank of Nor-walk follows with 3 per
cent. The venerable Fairfield county
does not purpose to declare a dividend at
this time, as we are informed Its mau-
agers deeming it wiser to defer it.
The. Fairfield County Savings Bank
removes to its new and elegantly fitted up
quarters in the Bank ofNorwulk Building.
The Fairfieid County Savings Bank and
National Bank of Norwalk will ‘have the
most gorgeous and convenient banking
rooms in town. I
We are told by a gentleman who has
seen them that proxies are out inviting
the aid of Fair-field County National Bank
stockoiders to tickets in the interest Of
both cit-U. S. Treasurer James W. Hyatt
and E. O. Keclcr in their friendly corn-
petition for the presidency of the bank.
The election comes off January 14th. Mr.
Hyatt is pretty sure to “get there” as we
learn he has the cordial support of Presi-
dent Lockwood and that Mr. Keeler, in
reality. does not desirethc position.

Rev. Dr. Thomas K. Noble.
Rev. Dr. Noble is expected to arrive
here this (Wednesday) evening. He will
make his first appearance as the pastor Of
the First. Congregational church at the
regular Thursday evening meeting at the
chapel. On Sunday next he will conduct
the communion service in the morning,
and in the evening there is to be a “praise
meeting," at which he will deliver an
appropriate address, while the church’s
excellent choir and superior organist will
render some suitable and enjoyable
musical selections. A letter from the
Doctor, read from the pulpit a fortnight
since, gave the people of his new charge
a clear idea‘ of the “stuff ire was made of,”
what the pastor would expect from his
parishioners, and what his people might
demand of him. This ancient church is
certainly to be congratulated upon secur-
ing so able and devoted a Servant of the
Master for their permanent pastor.

OBITUARY.
Miss Edith E. Ambler.
Never have we witnessed so heartfelt
and so gene’ral an expression Of sorrow as
pervaded our community upon the an-
nouncement Of the death of Miss EDITH
iAMBLER. .I-ler pure spirit took its flight
, to realms cclestial,'as was befitting, in the
icarly dawn of the last still and rest-
;ful Sabbath morning. Adoring parents
l and devoted friends had watched at the
; bedside of the beautiful sufferer for many
weary days and sleepless nights, borne
down with the terrible apprehension of
_ the coming of that dark shadow, which
fhas not only eushrotrtled them, but an
; entire community.
‘Nhile on an errand of love in New
York, only a few days since, Miss Ambler
took a severe cold. She remained there a
home. iler illness ran rapidly into fever
followed by severe peritonitis and pysemia.
For the last- few days of her earthly exist-
(llCc hope and fear, in the hearts Of
friends, alternated with agonizing fro:
quency. Time anti again she would rally
and her- briglrt spirit wring hope from
worn out, “God’s finger touched her and
Rarely beautiful in person
for her exceptional graces and accom-
plishments, but deeply beloved by all wer
knew her. The prldc and stay and solace
of father and brothers, she was the wor-
shipped child, companion and support of
of “:
all other,”——if that were possible now all,
alas, so unuttcrably bel'caVed. God pity
and sustain them. "But in this night of
death listening love can hear the rtrstle of
a wing,”the angel wing of one not lost but
“gone before” to be a sweet lrarmOnist in
the choir of heaven, and to wear “the
bridal robes" not of earth, but of “the re-
deemed of God and the Lamb.”
Miss Ambler was in her twenty-second
year, a member of the First Baptist society-
and a teacher in its Sabbath school, and
earnest and active in every good work.
Few there are, if any, who, dying, could
be so greatly missed . so sincerely
mourned.
iler funeral took place yesterday< l'ues-
day), from her parerrts’ home on Mott.

Henry W. Grady.
No element was lacking that could add
to the profound pathos of Henry \V.
Grady’s death. “He should have died
hereafter,” to paraphrase Macbeth.
Stricken down on the very threshold of a
career that: Contained the prophesy of
more than ordinary brillianey and success,
he leaves a young family whom no warn-
ing could have prepared for such a blow,
while the blow itself is the more terrible
from the appalling suddenness of its fall.
A week ago frrerrds and fellow-citizens
were assembled at the. depot at Atlanta to
welcom‘ him home from his orator-ical
triumph in Boston; and though he was
then too ill to accept the tendered ovation,
no one felt th : apprehension that ire had
returned home to die in the heyday of his
No event of recent
happening has given more impressive
emphasis to the solemn thought that in
the midst of life we are in death.

Our Board of Trade.
Mr. G. M. Holmes, who was elected
president of our new Board of Trade, has
sent in his resignation, on account of the
pressure of private business, but be ac-
companies his decimation with the sub-
stantial evidence of his hearty faith in its
purposes by enclosing a subscription of
$25. About $1,000 have now been sub-
scribed, and active efforts are now being
made to use it to the best advantage for
the purposes for which it was contributed.
But if this new organization will permit a
suggestion froru a veteran we would urge
that it elect an earnest and enterprising
man for its president. and an equally able
and enterprising board of directors, and
when this is done employ competent
parties to collect and collate all the rich
historical, vital and business statistics of
Norwalk—the whole of Norwalk—and
then have these facts published to the
world. For example, where can more
salubrious, attractive or more desirable
locations for manufacturing be found than
at Winnipauk, West Norwalk and, es-
pecially, East Norwalk with its gas, water,
electric lights, railroad and water facili-
ties and without. a cent of municipal tax-
ation ? Such facts attractively presented
could not fail to win greatly increased
population, business and prosperity to our
incomparably beautiful town.

- Store Changes.
Glover & Olsen have leased the Fred
Mead store and will throw it into one
wrtlr their present store. Water Commis-
sioner Mead is to remove to theJaqui
store of which he has taken a lease.
Mr. Louis Potter is going to open a first
class temperance billiard and pool room
in the store, formerly known as the Star
shoe store. about 'the first of February.
lle formerly was in the clothing business
here, afterwards going to South Nor-walk,
where he conducted a. billiard and pool
parlor on the temperance plan. From
there he removedjo Stamford and opened
the Monte Crrsto, which was considered
to be one of the finest billiard and pool
rooms In the State. Glover &; Olsen, it is
said, will vacate the store on New Year’s
day. The store is to. be fitted up hand-
somely.
B. S. Blascer on account of a serious
throattroublc, intends to dispose of his
stock and leave for the south the last of
February or the first of March.

‘sire’s side.

Horse Notes.
Tire Gentlemen’s Driving Association
at their meeting held at South Norwalk,
Monday, voted not to take out. a license.
The Association do not prOpose to Sci
liquor by themselves or agents—Record.
This is a very wise move on the part of
the association and very creditable to the
gentlemen having the management Of its
affairs. The Gentlemen’s Driving Asso—
ciation of Norwalk is already a success,
but every move of this kind makes it;
doubly so. Although this association is
in its infancy it has accomplished
more than many an older organization did
last year. Aside from that, its influence
has'becn felt among all lovers of good
horses, each member striving to possess II
horse as well bred or better than his
neighbor, and one that can keep pace
with the best of them. In this way Nor—
walk’s horse interests are greatly enhanced.
Every one enjoys the sport whether they
own a good horse or not, and a healthful
and innocent exercise is indulged in.
What is needed now is a boulevard for-
driving purpose, where a little fun can be
indulged in now and then without fear of
accident. Perhaps the new court of hur-
gesses will take some interest in this
matter, and see to it that some place is
provided. \Vhat a nice spot East avenue
would be if it were put in order for a s;.irr.

est horse in the world.

Fred Keeler has a green pacer in the
grey mare he recently purchased in New
York state. She is game and bids fair to
make a fast one.
Fred Waters finds he has quite a stepper
in the mustang he purchased a mouth or
so ago.

young horse in his sorrel colt Kaiser.

Ambler & Sammis.
The facts concerning the closrng out
of Messrs. Ambler &. Sammis have not
been correctly stated. Their co-partncr-
ship expires February 131:, and Mr. Sam-
mis is to leave town. Neither partner
desired to purchase the other?s interest in
the stock on hand, so it was agreed to run
itolf at such prices as the stock would
bring, and the goods are being rapidly
and successfully sold. Every dollar of
the firm’s indebtedness will be paid in full,
and it is the expectation of Mr. Ambler
that there will be enough of his capital
then left for him to start business again
with a new stock of goods suitable to the
Nor-walk trade. This his many friends
will be glad to know.
Referring to ex-Scnator Hill’s remarks
made at our board of trade meeting, in
last week’s GAZETIE, we reported the
following:
“It is the boast of a thrifty merchant in
a nearby city, that he can pull ten thous-
and dollars every year out Of Norwalk,
because its local dealers were either too
lazy or didn’t; know how to write taking
announcements concerning the goods they
have to sell.’
The above we followed
sentiments of our own :
“Mr. Hill’s excellent remarks about
cover the whole ground of our business
stagnation. It is not the want of growth,
for Norwalk does grow. God has given
us the most beautifulspot on His footstool
for our habitation, and if we would only
do as tourists do when climbing Mt.
Blane, reach down and seize all below
vith cordial clasp Of the hand and help
pull them up instead of meauly kicking
them down, or sneer-ing if they trip or
fall, We shall have as wide-awake and
energetic a business community as is to
be found anywhere in Yankee laud."
All fair minded and honorable men
must pity the being whose sordid nature
impels him, in the hope of selfish gain, to
dislroneslly impute the language of the
first paragraph to us.

Fairfield County Agricultural Society held

New Borough Board.
The old GAZETTE extends to our new
borough board “the expression of its dis-
tinguished consideration.” They are a
level-headed, practicabbusiness set of men
from the warden down, and have a rare
chance, which they will no doubt em-
brace, of winning the confidence and
gratitude of the people of the borough.
Crusts Make Griddle Cakes.
Crusts carefully saved can be made into
griddle cakes, puddings, meat dressings,
fish cakes, and when dried in the oven
and ground up with the rollingpin they
can be used for thickening soups and
gravies, or for any purpose for which
rolled crackers are used. The pan of
crusts carefully kept will save the meas-
ure of meal or crackers, and leave another
little coin in the purse to be generOus
with, or to wear uWay the barriers of nar-
row meaus.-Gooel Housekeeping.

Auxiliary of the Association. and (laugh-
ter of President Ambler, the annual New

Another Possum Supper.
Col. Charles Otfut, of Omaha, has re-
ccntly sent an order to a Kentucky friend
says the Louisville Courier-Journal, re-
questing him to forward a number of
’pnssurns to that city, where the cx-Spcak-
er proposes to treat his Nebraska friends
to a feast Of that far famed Southern del-
icacy. if the paragraph below comes to
their eyes, there will likely be several
vacant plates. The Lexington Transcript
says:
“ ’Possurn suppers are very frequent in
this city now. If the deluded epicures
who feast on these rat tailed animals
could see one lunching on a dead horse—
their favorite food—they wouldn’t want
any more ‘ ‘possum and taters.’ But then,
as the old negro woman remarked, ‘It’s;
jcs’ ’cor‘dirr’ to a pusson’s broughtin’ up.’ ” I
We purposely refrained from publishing
this last item of stirring news, until after
Messrs. Crofrrt, and Keeler, and Dr.
Many, and Gen. Olrnstcad had enjoyed
their ’possum feast.
Au indignant; relict makes her protest
in the New York Tribune against the in-
dignity thrust upou widows by the un-
grammatical compiler of obituary notices.
When she dies this particular widow in—
sists that she does not want airy fool edi-
tor to put her down as “Mehitable, widow
of the late Jonathan Jones.” This lady
very properly feels that all the facts can
be presented to the public, and at. the
same time with correct grammatical corr-
struction, by saying, ‘Mehitable widow
0 f Jonathan Jones.”
Advice to Mothers.
Are you disturbed at night and broken 0'
your rest by a Sick child suffering and crying
wlth pain Ofcutting teeth ?- If so send at once
and zeta. bottle of Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing

ferer immediately. Depend upon it, mothers,

tery and diarrhoea. regulates the atom 3.011 and
bowels, cures wind colic, softens the gums
reduces inflammation, and gives tone and
energy to the whole system. Mrs. Winslow’s

leasant to the taste, and is the prescription of
game of the oldest and best female nurses
and physicans in the United States, and is for
sale by all druggists throughout the world.
