Rev. B, S. Still preached an excellent
sermon Sunday morning at the Methodist
church, from St. Mark’s Gospel, “Have
Faith in God,” showing in a most eloquent
and forcible manner that faith such as the
text contemplated was the groundwork of
all religion. At the Congregational church
Rev. Mr. Backus preached, and Rev. Mr.
Ferguson at Memorial church chose as his
theme “Eternal Life,” making it evident
that to secure it some sacrifices and self
denials must needs be made here. A
large congregation listened to Rev. Mr.
Davis at Greens Farms, and several hun-
dreds attended the mass at Assumption
church, celebrated byRev. FatherCarroll.

The transltiou from long, lingering and

an epoch in the life of the individual.
Such a remarkable event is treasured in

, NEW-CANAAM ..
New Canaan witnessed a nigger show
on ,Friday, which, notwithstanding it
came soon after the Company F minstrel
entertainment, attracted a fair sized audi-
ence. It was given by theSlamford banjo
and glee club, and afforded much amuse-
ment to the spectators, many of whom
remained until the curtain went down.
The principal charm of the performance
was the novelty and originality of the
methods and arrangement employed in
carrying it out, and the manifest disregard
for the conventionalitics of the average
minstrcl show. For example, when the
curtain rose on the first part it revealed
the performers blacked in a striking man-
ner calculated to give the impression that
their supply of burnt cork was limited
and that strict economy had been observed
in applying it, for in some instances the
ears were while; some presented a pic-
turesque appearance by having deep white
borders around the eyes and below the
margin of the hair, and some were streak-
ed like an Indian in war paint, and the
grotesque effect was heightened by the
fact that the young men had departed
from the old threadbare notion that has
prevailed for generations among ordin-
ary miustrels, that a wig is an indispens-
able adjunct to a negro make-up, and
they introduced the novel feature of per-
forming wilh their own hair exposed.
There were red-headed niggcrs, tow-head-
ed darkcys, and coons with auburn locks,
makes with long straight hair, with short
curly hair, Wllll hair close cropped, with
pompadour, with bangs and with flowing
Oscar Wilde trcsses. The effect produced
by this innovation contributed immensely
to the happiness of the audience. The
uniform was in harmonious keeping with
the rest of the make-up, and varied from
a base ball suit to an ulster overcoat.
There were six cnd men, the three on the
tambo end adapting themselves with ad-
mirable facility to the novel situation of
having only one tambourine betWeeu them,
at which they took turns. The interlocu-
tor, besides being the serious man of the
circle, rc-cnforccd the end men in doing
the funny business, and varied the usually
stiff and statuesque deportment of his
position by industriously picking his
nose during the olio. The performance
throughout furnished considerable amuse-
ment for the audience, and it is hoped
the show will be repeated. SPECTATOR.

BEDDING.
Last week Monday, William Lewis, of
Bridgeport, was tried before Justice Dun-
comb for stealing, in December, $7 in
money from the savings bank of Mr. N.
B. Hill’s little girl and his wife’s gold
wedding ring. He was found guilty and
sentenced to pay $2 fine, the costs, $28,
and go to jail for two months. In giving
Sentence the justice had regard to the
fact that this was his first offeuCe of this
nature.
Last week Monday, Hon. Thomas San-
ford, camc from New Haven, to his home
here, and returned on Wednesday.
Last Wednesday afternoon, Rev. D.
Taylor officiated in Danbury, at the funeral
of Mr. Ezra Carter. Mr. Carter was an
older brother of the late Joel Carter, and
was a resident of Long Ridge. He had
gene to Danbury to Spend a season with
his son who is residing there, and there
died. He was much esteemed.
There was a light fall of snow Wednes-

Neither Waller Nor Bulkeley.
Col. Edward M. Graves, of Hartford, a
well known newspaper man and. politician
in the Nutmeg state, is a strong admirer of
ex-Gov. Thomas M. Waller.
“1f the democrats of Connecticut would
nominate Thomas M. Waller for governor
again they could sweep the state by the
biggest majority ever known to a demo-
cratic candidate in the state,” he said to a
reporter the other day.
“Why don’t they nominate him then ?”
“He doesn’t want it. Mr. Waller has
turned his attention to making money,
and he can't afford to enter actively into
politics just now. He is interested in
several business ventures at present which
need his personal attention, and he can-
not afford to give them up, but he is very
strong with the people and would make a
good run.”
“Will Gov. Bulkclcy be a candidate
again ?"
"I hardly think that. he will, for the
same reason that Mr. Waller doesn’t want
to run. I flunk that his business interests
are such that he would decline a nomina-
tion. It is hard to say, though, who will
be candidates, as neither party has got
down to discussing the matter yet."

Their Business Booming.
Probably no one thing has caused such
a general revival of trade at H. R. Hale’s
drug store as their giving away to their
customers of so many free trial bottles of
Dr. King’s New Discovery for C'onsump-
tion. Their trade is simply enormous in
this very valuable article from the fact
that it always cures and never disappoints.
Coughs, colds, asthma, bronchitis, croup,
and all throat and lung diseases quickly
cured. You can test it before buying by‘

Drunkenness.—Liquor Habit.
In all the world there is but one cure, Dr.
Heine’s Golden Specific. It can be given in a
cup of tea or coffee without ‘the knowledge of
the person taking it, efi‘ecfing a speedy and
permanent cure, whether the patient is a mod-
erate drinker or an alcoholic ‘wreck. Thous-
ands of drunkards have been cured who - have
taken the Golden Specific in their coffee with-
out their knowledge, and to-day believe they
quit drinking of their owu free will. No

. On a recent visit to Winnipauk, I found
the extension of the Norwalk’HorSe Rail-
‘road, a very convenient modeof traveling.
It must be not only a great accommoda-
tion to the public, but will, in the Eta?
future, enhance the value of real estate in
the northern part of the town. President
Hyatt and the directors are entitled to
much credit for this important addition to
their road. This reminds the writer of a
similar enterprise in this city. The East
End Horse Railroad was projected by the
late Mr; Henry Beardsley, and it was
through his means and influence that this
road was built, and put in successful
operation. Mr. Beardsley died very sud-
denly of heart disease, December 18, 1888,
and the management of his affairs dc-
volvcd upon his widow, Mrs. Sarah A.
Beardsley. As soon as she had partially
recovered from the shock of her husband’s
‘audden death she assumed control of his
business afi'airs and administered them
With remarkable foresight and energy.
Desiring to obtain absolute control of the
road she purchased nearly all the stock,
and' as Supermlcndcnt she appointed Mr.
George 0. Lines, of this city, who has
proved himself to be a very capable man
for the position, and is deservedly pop-
ular with the employes and the traveling
public. One of the results of Mrs. Beard-
sley taking active control of the road has
been anincrcase in the pay of the cm-
ployes, and they are profuse in their
expressions of gratitude for her liberality
towards them. If is a very rare thing for
a woman to own and manage a railroad,
but nevertheless this is a v’critablc fact.
Mrs. Beardsley is a quiet, unassuming,
liberal minded, Christain woman, and
does a great deal for the poor and the
unfortunate. The railroad has not only
greatly increased the facilities for travel-
ing, but has increased the value of real
estate in the East End, and a large num-
ber 'of new buildings have been erected
since this road was built.
The John Brooks will case is practically
settled. The terms of settlement have
not yet been made public. It is under-
stood that the heirs of Captain John
Brooks will receive quite a large amount,
as beneficiaries, of the estate, and that the
Presbyterian church will receive the bal-
ance. The title to the lot for the Young
Men’s Christian Association’s new {build-
ing will soon be settled, and the title
erected. .
The Yale Alumni Assocultiou of Fair-

Judge John M. Hall, Amos P. Wilder, of
the New Haven Palladium; “John W.

themselves to their heart’s content, and
