It is astonishing how such a level-
headed man as Amos J. Cummings, con-
grcssman from New York city, could get
so far “off his base” as he did when he
proposed in sober earnest a monument in
the rotunda of the National Capitol to the
late Mr. TllflCD, with an inscription there-
on, setting forth that he was the nine-
teenth President of the United States.—
Standard.
The “sober earnestness” of Amos’s jokes
is one of their most exquisite charms. He
must have his little fun, you know, and is
never at a loss for something rich and
catchy with which to enliven the House
when the proceedings get dry and mealy.

Bridgeport oficrs not only a democratic
candidate for governor, but four candi-
dates for the democratic nomination for
congressman to represent the Fourth dis-
trict. Surely true love of country hath an
abiding place even in a Wicked city, and
Bridgeport will never be found lacking in
patriots ready to come forward when the
country has an aching void in congress
that wants filling—even if‘ the sacrifice
creates another aching void at home.

Bridgeport’s “Suicide Club,” originally
composed of men, each of whom was
solemnly pledged to commit suicide when
he got ready to lay down the burden of
life, has dwindled down to two members
the president and secretary. And they
can’t hold a meeting for the transaction of
business because they can no longer raise
a quorum. For this same reason they
can neither resign their offices, get them-
selves dismissed from the organization,
nor disband the club. They continue,
however, to demonstrate their fidelity to
their suicidal obligation, for the last time
they were seen together they were in a
bar-room drinking rum punch.

Our contemporaries are lamenting the
fact that though there were lots of rhymes
for eighty-nine, there are none for ninety.

That’s very good, but even that doesn’t
exhaust the resources of the vocabulary of
rhyme. Now here’s this, for instance,
which demonstrates the fact that, para—
doxical as it may appear, the very diffi—
culty under discussion expedites the work
of overcoming it, and at the same time
produces a harmonious jingle, states a
solemn but self evident truth, and shows
the all ’mund utility of the newest acqui-
sition to current literature:

Col. W. H. Stevenson will have none
but the most intelligent domestic animals
about him. The public was long since
made familiar with the fact that he has a
dog who converses fluently in the tele—
phone, aud a horse who carries a railroad
time table in his head. Now the accom-
plishments of a pet cat are being made
known. During the Colonel’s recent
illness with the grippe his pet cat, “Ti-
ger,” officiated as assistant nurse. He
was kept in the sick room and his busi-
ness was to call up an attendant frOm the
kitchen when anything was wanted. The
modus operandi was simple and effective.
Whenever the Colonel desired the services
of his attendant. he would simply knock

Rev. Mr. Ferguson, of Chicago, preach-

pulpit will be filled next Sunday by Rev.
Mr. Richardson, late of St. Paul’s church,
Norwalk.
Centenarian Mrs. Huldah Rockwell has
so far ilecovercd from her late illness as to
be pronounced by her physician out of
danger. Many kind people will be glad
to hear of this, as they can call on the
aged lady again as they have been doing
since her 100th birthday, just to see, and
hear her talk.
The undersigned has in his possession a
relic of the steamer Lexington, which
was burned in the Sound and sunk of!
Old Field light just 50 years ago January
14th last. It is a portion of a hawser box
thrown from the steamer by a frantic pas-
scnger, and found floating next day. Cap-
tain Wakcman Meeker, of Southport,
whose father found the hawser box kind-
ly supplied the relic.
The annual meeting of the Board of
Trade was held last Thursday evening
and elected these officers :—President, 0.
I. Jones; vice presidents, J. D. Wood.
T. E. King, D. A. Salmon ; secretary. F.
M. Raymond; treasurer, W. E. Nash;
directors, T. 'E. King, J. S. Jones, W. J.
Finch, L. T. Day, W. G. Staples, J. M.
Sniffen, W. H. Thomas, C. Harris, W. L.
Coley, T. C. Stearns. The report of the
treasurer showed that the receipts for the
vent had been $603.40, and the expendi-
tures $601.00. The money had been ob«
tained by dues, voluntary contributions,
and public entertainments. The work
accomplished by the board has been the
establishment and maintenance of over
100 street lamps, sidewalks improved in
many localities, an additional U. S. mail,
and a Western Union Telegraph office and
operator. A fair under the auspices of
the board to raise more money for more
improvements will open February 11th,
and not February 4th, as before reported,
in the Land and Improvement company’s
building.
Mr. Horace Staples was reelected pres-
ident of the First National Bank last week
Tuesday for the 37th time. Messrs. John
H. Jennings and Daniel B. Bradley jr.,
were chosen directors to fill vacancies
caused by the death of E. S. Downes and
E. W. Taylor. Mr. B. L. Woodworth
was chosen cashier for the 35th time and
H. E. Sherwood teller. The usual dinner
was served in the directors’ room.
John H. Jennings has been chosen pres-
ident of the Greens Farms club. The
club has decided to hold their annual con-
vention in the Farms school house as
usual on Washington’s birthday. On this
occasion the ladies will provide one of
their magnificent dinners.
Since the fire at Saugatuck the quéstion
“VVllltllc burned buildings be rebuilt?”
has been repeatedly asked. No definite
answer as yet, but the fact that one of the
owners, Miss Ann Wheeler, is very anx-
ious to buy Raymond Bros.’ property ad-
joining, and that firm is heping to pur-
chase what belongs to Miss Wheeler, is
evidence that something good will be
done very soon.
Before Mr. Frederick Kcmper bought
it, the lot upon which that gentleman is
about to move the Abram Sherwood house
was a wet, miry repulsive one. By the
piping and draining it has become one of
the dryest. The house is now on route
from the old to'its new site, and upon the
old one will rise one of the most elegant
dwellings in town.
During the week there has been mild-
ncss unprecedented and a river clear of
ice. The result of it has been fishermen
have drawn sauce and caught many
smelts, and clammers have done well on
the marsh. Caukeen’s Island, Cedar
Point and Sherwood’s mill pond catching
their favorite bivalves. r
Mr. John Q. Adams, who has been ill
at his home in Brooklyn since before
Thanksgiving, was in town Tuesday of
last week. He expects to reside here
with his family next. summer.
Ice prOSpects continue dark, but. exper-
ienced dealers say “That’s nothing,” and
convey the idea that time and again their
houses have not been filled till February.
They also say that there’s not much de-
pendence to be placed on January as an
ice month, anyway.
The wife of William Rosenthal, and
Messrs.Wesley Wolfe and Henry Burr are
seriously ill.
Founder’s Day at the Staples High

La Grippe has had a large number of
victims in this town. In two or three
cases it has issued in pneumonia.
Mr. J. B. Sanford has fitted up a gro-
cery store in one part of his creamery.
Last week he stocked it with groceries
and opened it to the public. ' 4
Mr. Joseph Squire, either with or with-

will carry on the grocery business at the

Our Bridgeport Letter.
In the list of honorary appointments of
the junior class of Yale University were
the following young men, graduates of
the Bridgeport high school, of which J.
D Bartley is the principal: Wm. T.
flBartley, philosophical orator; Harvard L.
Field, second disputes; Edward F. Horr,
second colloquics. These young men
received their education, fitting them for
college, at the high school in this city.
This shows the advantage of the public
school system.
Mr. Barnum writes to the directors of
the Pequonnock national bank, acknowl-
edging the receipt of their New Year’s
greetings. He says his health is robust,
also that his wife’s health is much im-
proved, and that the greatest show on
earth is doing :1 tremendous business.
They will return to this country about
March let. A public reception will be
tendered him on his return.
The death of Mr. W. L. Bancroft of
his city, who died in Washington. D. C.,
has brought sadness to his young bride,
and his many friends. Mr. Bancroft was
married New Year’s day, to Miss Virginia
S. Migeon, of Torrington, Conn., and the
same day they started on their wedding
tour to Washington. He was taken sick
with pneumonia shortly after his arrival
there, and died on the 9th.
Abeautiful home wedding took place
last week on West avenue. at the residence
of the bride. Mr. David H. Roberts of
New York, and Mrs. Annie A. Pcase,
were married by the Rev. Beverly E.
Warner, Rector of Christ Church.
Rev. Col. Anderson, formerly pastor of
the Congregational church of Norwalk,
preached two practical and excellent ser-
mons Sunday, in the South Congregational
church in this city. In the evening the
church was crowded to excess, to listen
to the eloquent preacher.
Judge E. S. Seymour, who was taken
sick at Hartford, is convalescing, and will
be able to return to his home in Bridge
port in a few days. .
Miss Grace Dodge, the daughter of the-
Hon. W. E. Dodge, of New York, deliv-
ered a lecture for the working girls of
Bridgeport, at the Seaside Institute last
Monday evening.
Mr. C. R. Brothwell and Mr. H. E.
Bowser, have been in the employ of the
Hon. P. T. Barnum for the past 25 or 30
years. They transact all of Mr. Barnum’s
business. Mr. Brothwell has charge of
all the real estate, buying and selling the
same, and. making contracts for new
buildings. Mr. Brothwell beihga carpen-
ter, and a practical man, planned and
built the Barnum Building, Proctor’s
Grand Opera House, and the new Barnum
Gymnasium, also the new win‘ter quarters
for the greatest show on earth, besides a
large number of private dwellings for Mr.
the Board of Public Works of this city, a
member of the Board of Trade, and a
vestryman of Christ church. He also took
an active part in the building of the new
lower bridge. Mr. Bowser, his associate,
is Mr. Barnum’s secretary, collecting
rents, drawing checks in Mr. Barnum’s
name, and has full charge of all Mr. Bar-
num’s financial matters. Mr. Barnum
being absent from Bridgeport so many
months each year, has arranged that they
can make all transfers of property the
same as though he were here, consequent-
ly his real estate business is not embar-
rassed by big, absence. One thing should
be mentioned to the credit of Mr. Barnum
in c'onnection with this matter; although
he pays a large salary, he has always been
willing that Mr. Brothwell should devote
a portion of his time to the interest of the
city. Mr. Bowser is considered a, that-
class accountant, being i shrewd business
man, and a great syswmatizer, in all his
business transactions. Both of these men
have the full confidence of Mr. Barnum,
and the public generally. It is 'a very
rare thing to find men with such unlimited
power as these men have, but they have
been tried and found not wanting. Mr.
Barnum’s estate is among the Imillions
Mr. Barnum might well say. as is said in
holy writ, “well done then good and fait h-
ful servant, thou hast been faithful over a
few things, I will make thee ruler over
many things.” [a w. 6.1..
