Riley, who got on the war-path a few nights ago and drove his father and mother out of doors at their home on Cobble Hill, has not yet been caught by the police.

By a new arrangement, the Housatonic road now connects, via. the Berkshire Hills route, with fast express trains on the New York Central road whereby the time from Bridgeport to Chicago, is but 28 hours. This makes the shortest route to Albany, Buffalo, Cincinnati and all points west. Charles F. Raymond, an aged and well known citizen of Norwalk, died on Friday morning, at his residence on Knight street, at the age of 86 years. A wife and four children survive him, one of whom, Munson, is the husband of Annie Louise Carey. The funeral took place Monday. Judge Selleck has purchased a corner lot on Clinton avenue, a growing and aristocratic thoroughfare in Bridgeport, for which he paid $6,000, and he is nego- tiating for and additional strip adjoining. The Judge purchased it as a speculation, feeling assured that it is a good invest- ment. _ The GAZETTE is indebted to Secretary of State R. J. Walsh, fora copy of the Con- necticut State Reister and Manual for 1890. This book has grown into a volume of considerable proportions. and is a verit. able cyclopedia of political history and information on almost any topic concern- ing our state and government. Mr. W. F. Disbrow, who almost secured the appointment of Collector for the port of Bridgeport, is said to have been prom- ised the United States Marshalship, as a consolation prize for having been slaugh- tered in the house of his friends, but it is not known that he will accept. Mr. Dis- brow has filled the position of deputy Marshal, and was deputy sheriff under Sireriff Crosby—Record.

The county commissioners have issued a call for bids for sixty $1,000 coupon bonds, payable at the Merchants’ Ex- change National Bank, of New York, which have been issued to provide for the cost of the new jailnow building.

If the unscrupulous villain who stole a door mat from the Ridgefield barber shop, doesn’t bring it back pretty soon his name is going to be printed in the Ridgefield Press, and Bross will make him the sub- ject ofapoem. If he still clings to the mat after this extreme punishment, the barber will resort to still more barber-ous measures, and have his portrait printed among the prominent citizens in the Sun- day World. The great Barnum and Bailey circus concluded its campaign in London on Saturday night, after a mcst successful season. It is said that 100,000 people were turned away unable to gain ad- mission during last week alone, and that the proprietors will bring home about $500,000 in British gold. The show will probably sail for New York the last of this week, and will open soon after either in New York or Philadelphia. Mrs. Comstock of Wilton, who so nar- rowly escaped death in the grade cross- ing tragedy in which her husband was killed a few weeks ago, continues to im- prove, and her physicians say she will recover. Her mind, however is not clear, and there are. grave doubts as to whether it ever will. resume its natural balance owing to the frightful injuries to her head She is not yet in a condition to realize the fact that her husband was killed, and the awful story has not been told her. Clinton Beers, a hatter who "earns good wages in the Volk hat shop, is under bonds to give his wife $6 a week.

C Bross, (married,) the sweet singer of the Bidgeficld Press:— lf skating only came in June, And every night brought a full rnoon,-— How “delirious” it would be! If such were so, what nights to “spoon!" Then she and I would very soon Glide fast on skates like a monsoon— . « How—how-raptur—ohl ‘3 —— The annual statement of the New York Mutual Life Insurance 00., which appears . elsewhere in the GAZETTE, presents an ar- ray of figures that speak eloquently of the business, standing, and popularity of this staunch old company. The local agent, Mr. A. H. Camp, will furnish any infor-- mation desired concerning any detail of the company, to those who contemplate taking out insurance. John Smith, Bert Pinuey and James Parsons, who were recently arrested for writiiiig policy, were brought before Judge Knapp, at South Norwalk, Monday. Their counsel, J. Belden llurlbutt, de- murred owing to errors in the writs. The demurrer was overruled and the Judge entered a plea of guilty and im- posed a fine of $100 each and costs, from which an appeal was taken to the court of common pleas. The signal corps of the Fourth Regi- ment, C. N. G., held a meeting Friday night and elected Frank M. Cogill lieuten- ant in place of W. W.Starr, resigned. Mr, Cogill is supervisor of the Housatonic mad, and well known. He is an old war veter- an, and having served during the civil War ’ a cavalry regiment, will no doubt make a valuable and efficient officer. The corps have received new uniforms and equipments and was inspected Monday evening. In consequence of the prevailing epi— demic. resulting in severe sickness and many deaths in the famiiies of the mem— bers of the Neptune club, the annual re— union and meeting of that organization which was called for Friday evening of this week, at the Norwalk Hotel, has been postponed until further notice. Members in this vicinity will govern themselves ac- cordingly. Acting secretary Olmstead will give proper notice of the change to out of town members. The first of the series of select socials to be given by the Bridgeport Lodge of Elks this season took place at their hall on State street Thursday night. A pleasant party of about two hundred attended, in- cluding only the friends and and ladies of the members. A musical entertainment was also enjoyed. Vocal selections by several of the young ladies present were greatly appreciated. Tire renditions of the. Excelsior quartette were among the special attractions. Dancing was indulged in until about one o’clock in the morning. Sunday evening, Frank Fee, of Bethel, accompanied by Daniel McMahon, of Dan- bury, drove over to Lake Kenosia, stop- ping at the Lake House for supper. Their team was hitched in the barn. After sup- per, when the hostler went to get it, no team was to be found. A general search about the barn showed that the team had been taken out of the barn a short time previous, and, by the tracks, that the thieves and team started towards New York state. Pursuit is being made after the lhief. The $100 gold and diamond necklace ofieicd by the New York World to the “be t representative of Connecticut fac- tory, belles" ought to come to Norwalk, the theadquarters of the representative Connecticut factory belles. If the boys of Norwalk don’t scissor out those coupons and' make busrness for the counters in the World oflice crediting up votes for our factory girls, and fetch that piece of jew- elry here, they deserve to be. snubbed and mitiened and sat upon until they are driv- en elfectively and for all time into the dark and dismal gulf of hopeless bachelor- dom. damp Magou held a meeting at the res- idence of Henry A. Bishop, in Bridgeport, Friday evening, and elected the following ofliéers 2—President, H. A. Bishop; sec- retalry, Augustus S. May; treasurer, H. M. Kochersperger; executive committee, E. William Fairchild, Henry Setzer, jr., am Attorney E. S. Sumner. The camp numbers 23 members and is limited to 25. The annual encampment at Twin Lakes this year. will be the largest, and undoubt- edly one of the most successful and enjoy- able ever held since the camp was organ- ized. Attention is called to the announcement in another column, of the second organ recital and concert in the series, at the new Congregational church, South Nor— walk. It will be seen that a rare musical feast is in store for our people next Wed— nesday evening, which should, and prob- ably will, call out a large attendance. Henry Merrill, a veteran of the Fifth Connecticut regiment of volunteers, died at the residence of Mrs. Elbert Smith, on Friday morning. He had for a long time been an intense sufferer, and was blind for two years prior to his death. The funeral was attended on Sunday from Mrs. Smith’s residence on Summer street, Buckingham Post, G. A. R , attending in a body. Be careful how you address your letters to Washington. Washington is a State. Washington is a city in the District of Columbia. Washington is the name of f. nearly forty towns in different States, and besides all these there are a Washington Bar, a Washington Borough, a Washington Court-House, a Washington Center, a Washington College, a Washington Depot, :1 Washington Gulch, a Washington Har- bor, a Washington Heights, a Washington Hollow, a Washington Mills, :1 Washing- ton Prairie, and a Washingtorrville—~all post—offices At the afternoon session of the American Newspaper association in New York Thurs- day, the following officers for the ensuing year were elected: President J. W. Scott, of the Chicago Herald; vicerpresident S. H. Kauffmann. of the Washington Star; secretary, R. H. Campe, of the Pittsburgh Chronicle; treasurer, William Laf’fin of the New York Sun; directors. E. H. Woods of the Boston Herald, C. W. Knapp of the St. Lpuis Republican, Louis Baker of the St. Paul Globe, W. C Bryant of the hook- lyn Tones, and L. L. Morgan of the New Haven Register. An interesting justice trial will come up on Monday next, being an action brought by Louis Verlin, manager of the Castle-- coote farm, in Wilton, against Frederick Gregory, of Norwalk, to secure his pay for pressing hay for the latter. The bill is $23.63, which Gregory attempts to offset with a bill of $35.50 for board and horse-feed during the four days consumed in pressing the hay. Very naturally Mr. Verlin protested against this exorbitance, and immediately attached the baled hay. Tire hearing, on Monday, will probably attract a large attendance. The case of E. A. Woodward, treasurer of the South Norwalk Club, for selling liquor without a license, came up on Tuesday in the court of common pleas, at Bridgeport. Several witnesses testified for the state, and the evidence showed that liquors were kept and sold. in the club room to members and their guests. The members deposited tickets for drinks when called for, bills for the amount being sent them at stated times. Wood- ward, being treasurer of the club. received the money and paid for the liquors. A number of prominent citizens attended the trial. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty. Norwalk cor. Staniardz—The first of a series of organ recitals to be given in the new Congregational church, South Nor- walk, took place on Wednesday evening. Prof. Alexander S. Gibson gave some finely executed organ selections, Miss Anita Ma- son sang very sweetly and Mr. W. E. Haesche, Violinist, won the hearts of the audience. Miss Mason’s voice is familiar to Norwalk music lovers. The next recital will occur on the evening of February 26, when Prof. George W. Morgan of New York will play the organ and Miss Maud Morgan the harp. The proceeds of these concerts will go to pay the debt on the organ. The accident at the drawbridge last Tuesday, whereby a freight train was de- railed and smashed up by the derailing switch designed to wreck a train on land rather than allow it to plunge off into the harbor ‘when the draw is open and a catastrophe is unavoidable, has developed considerable discussion as to the efficiency and soundness of the present arrangement at drawbridgss. It is argued by many that no “safety appliances” can ever be so reliable or so safe as the old system of stopping all trains before crossing the bridges. If the train wrecked by the “safety appliance” on Tuesday had been a passenger train the loss of life would have been great. Mrs. Jennie Disbrow, a naughty girl from Wilton, came to town with Frank Barnes, a convivial citizen of the same place. on Tuesdayafternoon. They drove about the town from one gin-mill to another, and by night were hilariously lubricated, and Jennie conducted herself in such an unladylike manner as to shock the modesty of our bashful young police- men, Adams and Gormley, who took [her to the lockup and sent Barnes home with the horse. On Wednesday morning Judge Selleck fined her $1 and costs, aggre. gating about $8, which was paid. The next evening, Burton, the “all hot” monopolist, was arrested, on the charge of having said something vulgar and handled Jennie’s shoes, while she was in the buggy, and Frrday afternoon Judge Austin decided that he was guilty, just a little—about a dollar’s worth, with costs. ~Record. The Georgetown correspondent of the Ridgefleld Press writes :—— i A large delegation of the Y. P. S. C. E. of _this place, attended the Norwalk Union service, at Norwalk, Tuesday evening. They were highly entertained and sumptuously fed from the spiritual “crumbs" dispensed by the Rev. HJ‘A. Davenport, of Bridgeport. At the close of the service they were invited to attend the social festivities of the society which- consisted 'of a sumptuous repast of cake and coffee provided by the good ladies of Norwalk. We areinformed that two of our worthy representatives were either so deeply absorbed in thought of the good time expected, as to miss their station, and were carried to South Nor- walk; or else they concluded to have a longer railroad ride and walk back for an evening’s recreation. However, they“got there,” all the same, and had a good relish for the “crumbs.” The annual meeting of Pioneer Hook and Ladder Company was held Thursday evening, and the following officers *cre elected for the ensuing year :—~Foreman, F. L. Merritt; first assistant, Wm. J. Merritt; second assistant, A. A. Martin; president, J. F. Sherwood; recording secretary, F. E. Birch: financial secre— tary, F. W. Andrews: treasurer John Bray; investigating committee. John 'W Greenwood, John Jones. E. Hoyt; finan- cial committee, Charles Bouton. William S. Blascer, Mark Smith. At the close of the election of officers a motion was made and unanimously carriml that a vote of thanks be extended to Rev. Charles E. Torrey for the cordial reception and the eloquent sermon which he gave them on Sunday evening. Commander J. H. Broatclr, of the G. A. R., issued his first order, Monday, and among other things announces his full staff. The selections are ill part as fol- lows: AdjulantGeucral, John H. ’j‘haiclicr Post 50, Hartford; Asst. Quariernuister General, W. E. Morgan, Post 17. New Haven; Inspector, James N. Cue, P051. 17, New Haven; Judge Advocate, amucl H. Seward, Post 54, Putnam ; Chief Muster— ing Ofiicer. Albert F. Hall, Meriden ; Senior Aid-de-Camp, S. I). Brewster, Post 53, Middletown. A committee of four to have charge of the Soldiers’ Home at Newton was also named as follows: Gen. W. H. Picrpont,_Post 17, New Haven ; S. B. Horne, Post 33, Winsied; H. M. Bur— pee, Post 1, Norwich; Thos. Dundref, of Bridgeport. There was a very pleasant gathering of intimate friends at the residence of Mr. Henry A. Goulden, in Brooklyn, L. I., on Wednesday, to witness the marriage of Miss Nellie Eloise Hoyt, of Scranton, Pa., formerly of Norwalk, to Mr. Fred D. Congdon, also of Scranton. The cere- mony was performed by liev. Dr. Corn— wall. The bride is a neicc of Mr. Norman Austin, and has a large circle of friends here, whom they have been calling on for the past few days, having made Norwalk their first stopping place on their wedding trip. The groom was tendered a recep~ tion before leaving Scranton by a large number of friends, who presented him with a splendid silver set. The bride also received quite a number of presents. The following divorces were granted at the session of the superior court Friday: Susan M. Warner, of Newtown, “from Henry W. Warner, of Southbury; Cause habitual intemperance; married March 31 1874. Plaintiff’s name changed to Susan M. Andrews. Hattie S. Mills, of‘ Norwalk, from Chauncey D. Mills, of Bridgeport. Married December 20, 1882; cause desertion. Plaintiff’s name changed to Hattie Ryder. Cornelia A. Coeayne, of Westport, from George E. Cocayne. of Sorrthington. Cause habitual intemperance. Married March 18,1888. Custody of one minor child awarded to the plaintiff. Lillian V. Monroe, of Stamford, from Leroy E. Monroe, of New Canaan. Cause desertion. Married November 15, 1884. Plaintiff’s name changed to Lillian V. Newman. The. World on Sunday last contained, in its Connecticut edition, another install~ ment of Norwalk portraits and biograph- ies, devoted to the “bachelors of Nor- walk.” Buckingham Lockwood, John F. Buxton, W. B. E. Lockwood Jr., Dr. W, A. Baldwm, Edward Whitworth and Dr. W. J. Tracy are the subjects “honored” with portraits, which Hen. Hoyi’s bio- graphy, highly colored,'is given without illustrations. Buckingham Lockwood is represented by a very good picture of John A. Camp, and Whitworth, the handsome tailor, is outrageously libeled by having his name placed under the protrait of a plug ugly slugger of the Whyo gantr. John Buxton’s picture looks like a brigadicr-general in the SalvatiOn army. "Billy” Lockwood is given an expression that would seem to indicate that he has just smoked his first cigar and is concentrating all his energies in a determination to retain possession of. his dinner, and in resolvingithat if he ever gets over it this time he will never do’ so any more. Dr. Baldwin’s .photo was evidently taken just after he had been trying to pull one of his own teeth with; out taking gas, and got only half of it out. The ‘World’s artist is a "dandy.” [ADDITIONAL LOCAL on rim PAGEJ
