DEAR Gaznrrnz—As was to have been expected the contest for the lo- cation of the world’s fair in 1892 ended with a victory for that young mu— nicipal giant of the west, Chicago. The bill authorizing the exhibition will now be put in shape by Chairman Candler to harmonize with the location, and then the mighty energies of that. wonderful city of the laice will be put to their utmost strain to get everything in readiness for ’92. Giving the fair to Chicago is not a very regrettable event. possible excursion rates to and from Maine, Alaska, the northernmost limits of Canada, to Mexico,aud our people will be given an opportunity of traveling over and seeing vasr areas of their own country never before enjoyed. JOEL HARLOW. congressman O’Neil, from the com- mittee on the library, reported a billlast week appropriating $5,000 to be used by the secretary of state in removing the remains of the Connecticut patriot and diplomatist, Joel Barlow, from their pres- ent resting place near Cracow, Poland, and their rcinterment in his native town of Bedding, and on the grounds of Gen. Israel Putnam’s winter quarters. recently put in order by the state of Connecticut as a memorial park. The following brief lllbIOl‘lCtll sketch of Barlow we copy from Mr. O’Neil’s report: , “Joel Barlow was born March 24, 1754, in Redding, western Connecticut. A stu- dent at Yale college when the Revolution broke out, he joined the ranks during the summer vacations, and with two brothers was in the spirited engagement at White )lains. Later, was appointed chaplain in Poor’s Brigade, New Hampshire Line, and served till close of the war. Went abroad in 1788. and remained there, chiefly in France, until 1805. His "Vision of Colum- bus,” the earliest notable American poem, was first published in this country in 1787, was republished in England and France, and in the latter country especially gave the author much prestige. He wrote the “Hasty Pudding,” a pastoral in mock heroic style, in Savoy in 1793. Made citizen of France in 1792. In 1796 appointed agent to Algiers, by President Washington, to liberate American seamen and others held in cruel slavery by the Bey. Spent over a year there in constant peril of life from the plague then raging, :iud liberated the pris- oners. Estate in 179:. valued at $125,000. Returned to America In 1805. and settled on the beautiful estate of Kalorama in \Vashington City. Appointed by President Madison minister to France 1811. Prevail- ed on against his will to accept. Sailed in historic frigate “Constitution” from Annap- olis, August 1,1811. Spent a year in a trial of wits with the astute Napoleon, each side trying to win the advantage in regard to commercial privileges, and France seek- ing to evade payment ofrindemnity for spolialions on American commerce. At length. when negotiations were nearly com- pleted and almost every article of the treaty agreed to. Napoleon suddenly quilted his capital to embark in his disastrous Russian campaign. A month or so later, Barlow, at. Paris, received a letter from the Due de Bassano, Minister of Foreign Affairs, saying . that if he would come to Wilna, Poland, the Emperor would meet him there and Sign the treaty. Barlow at once set out, Octo— ber 20. 1812,aid after great hardships reached Wilna, November 18, to find that Napoleon had evacuated Moscow and was in retreat. Barlow remained in Wilna until December 4, hoping still to meet the Em- peror. but on that day news arrived by courier of the bloody defeat at Beresina,and that the ll‘rench,including the Emperor, werein full flight. toward France. Barlow at once set out to retreat, but became en— tangled in the debris of the flying army, and being further impeded by the intense cold, and suffering from the lack of food, he suc- cumbed at last. to the rigors of the journey and died December 24, 1812. If we mistake not ex-Senator E. J. Hill, of Norwalk, is, on the maternal side, a lineal descendant of the world renowned Joel Barlow, of Connecticut. FRENCH SPOLIA’I‘ION CLAIMS. The House committee on claims has decided to report a bill appropriating money for the payment of all spoliation claims that have passed the court of claims, under the recent act of congress, authorizing said court. to make legal examinations and awards. It is estimated that it will require an appropriation of between eight and ten million dollars. The congressional history of these claims date back to the year 1802, when they were first reported to the House by Mr. Giles, in behalf of a. select committee appointed for their investigation. They were again reported on in 1807. Both reports contained a favorable statement of the facts without recommendation. Later favorable reports were made on the claims, and several times a bill for the relief of the claimants passed both Houses, but was vetoed by the President. The claims grew out of the destruction of American property by French vessels, previous attacks having been made upon French commerce by American cruisers. At that time the whole of monarchial I ' Europe was in arms against France, and that country, indignant at what she re- garded as a breach of faith and gross in- gratitude on the part of the United States, retaliated by the destruction of our pro- perty on the sea. There are a large number of the heirs of these old claimants now living in and about Nor-walk. The Lockwood family, represented by, Mr. Wm. B. E., Col. F. St. John, Miss Julia and Mr. and Mrs. George B. St. John, havcalargc interest. The Kellogg's are also interested, Mr. Jarvis Kellogg has been quite active in securing his family’s rights. Throughout Connecticut there are many others whose claims have been as are now being adjusted by ex-Senator It means the cheapest iCragin, who has the Norwalk cases in charge has been most indefatigable in his efforts to secure the justice so long deferred, before the court of claims. MISCELLANEOUS. The Christian Arbitration and Peace Society will hold its annual convention here to-morrow. Justice Harlan presid- ing. The association was organized in Philadelphia about three years ago in a very quiet way, but its organization now covers nearly the whole of Europe, as well as this country. and is sending its liter-a. turc to millions of readers. The-object in view is to strengthen public sentiment in favor of a general disarmament, and this, it is believed, can best be done through the influences of a gospel which is based upon the principles of brotherhood and peace. The relations of oven the most enlightened nations to one another are now such that; armies and navies are con- sidered essential branches of the public service. Yet the day may come when all international disputes shall be settled by arbitration, before resorting to the sterner arbitrament of war. And if such a day shall come, it will owe its dawning to jus such instrumentalities as the Arbitration and Peace Society is now employing. The Commissmner of Patents, Mitchell, appeared before the House Committee on Patents yesterday and made an earnest plea for better acetimmodations for the Patent. Office. He said that the office was so crowded that it was impossible to trans- act the public business properly—a state of affairs not warranted by the financial showing made by the office, which had to its credit 3. fund of over $3,000,000 of fees realized in excess of the expenditures. He also Spoke of the necessity for increasing the salaries of the examiners, to secure Ihc retention of competent men in the service, and for the erection of a laboratory in which to test practically various electrical devices. The committee is unanimously disposed to relieve the needs of the office, and as a temporary measure will report a bill au- thorizing the procurement of additional rooms, which will he followed by another bill, providing for the erection of suitable buildings for the accommodation of either the Patent Ofiicc or the Interior Depart- ment and Land Office. The Ohio Republicans are not waiting for any Congressional legislation on the new apportionment in that State, biit are going right ahead making preparations to carry as many districts as possible. They declare that it Will be impossible for the Democrats to capture all the districts they have mapped out as safe, and that when the votes are counted next November they will have about as many members as the Democrats. The Democrats express some fear that their legislative majority has trimmed the districts too closely for com- fort in several instances. ' The official count shows that Mr. Roy- burn managed to squeeze through in Judge Kelley’s district by a majority of 8,579, and the new Congressman has been sworn in. Editor Frank Hatton, of the Washington Post, is most exhilai'atingly and essentially reforming the Civil Service Reform Com- mission. His congresssional investigation of that legal delusion, fraud and snare has become like the boys stoning the frogs—awfully jolly fun for the boys, but death to the frogs. Pension Commissioner Raum told the House committee on invalid pcnsrons the other day that he could get better clerks by selecting them himself than he could get through the Civil Service Commission, and it is well known that; many bureaus in the patent office have been seriously injured by the introduction of civil service examination graduates in- stead of mechanical experts. A bill is before congress to embrace all .the towns from Hartford to Springfield, on the Connecticut river, in the Hartford customs collection district. The Senate has passed the bill for pub- lic buildings to be erected in Danbul‘y, Waterbury and New London. Next con- gress, will naturally follow Meriden, then Norwalk, if the borough and city can agree on a common site for one building, and then comes Stamford’s turn. Bishop Hurst, last week, made the first payment for the plot of ninety acres of high ground north of and overlooking Washington, for the purpose of establish- ing here a great Methodist University. It is located near Tennallytown, is 400 feet above this city, and commands an extend- cd view of the Potomac river and Mary- land and Virginia on the south and east. On the north and west is another view, equally as beautiful, of the Catoctin and Blue Ridge Mountains, even as far reaching as Harper’s Ferry. It is said to be singularly and most acceptably adapted to educational purposes because 'of all of the land being available for building pur- poses—of commanding heightb, easy of access, and well supplied with all the natural requirements requisite for an institution of this kind. The price now paid is an even $100,000. It was pur- chased eight years ago for $9,000. Ex-President Cleveland last week sold his twenty-nine. acres, “Oak View," just this side the above, which he pur- chased about threc years since for $32,. 000, for $140,000. This shows the rapid and phenomenal rise in property values in Washington at the westward bound- aries of the city. A Senate investigating committee is per- plexing itself with the impossibility of trying to learn how the newspaper scribes obtain such correct reports of all the doings in executive session. It would be much more to the purpOse to yield to Senators Platt’s and Teller-’8 plan to abol- ish the old my system of secret sessions . ; altogether. Throw open the doors and let the people know what their servants are about. Vice-President. Morton, with Senator and Mrs. Hale, having left for a two weeks’ trip to Florida, Senator Ingalls was on Friday elected president pro tempore of the Senate. Bernard F. Blakeslee, of Hartford, was last week appointed stamped envelope agent at Hartford, vice Win. L. Eaton, democrat, removed. Eaton is the son and only child of exSenator W. \V. Eaton, who is spending the winter here With his wife, as has been his custom ever since leaving the Senate. A novel industry has been started here which is reported a great success. Two ladies out of employment, hit on the idea of opening a repair shop for gentlemen’s garments. They rented a window in a Milliner shop near one of the leading hotels and put out the modern sign “Gentlemen’s garments, neatly and reas- onably repaired.” T he result has proved either a revelation of an enormous bach- elor population, or the existence of vastly more married men than ever suspected, whose good wives either can’t or won’t sew on their shirt buttons, darn their underwear and hose, and do all such sim- ple service as a poor male biped is so utterly helpless about. Be this as it may it is stated that the two thrifty and indus- trious ladies have caughtthat Shakesperian tide at the flood, “which leads on to for- time.” An “Orange Tea” for the benefit of the Newsboys and Children’s Aid Society was given by the guests at 1,421 K street, Saturday evening, mainly under the active auspices of Miss Mary Ferry, who is secretary of this worthy charity. Mrs. Ferry helped the Misses Rossiter, (at whose residence the entertainment “for sweet charity's sake" was given) to receive the numerous guests who thronged the house. In the back parlor there was an attractive candy table, decorated .with daffodils and magnolias. Herc Mrs. Mar- shall presided, assisted,by the Misses Long, of Boston, daughters of ex-Gover- nor Long, of Massachusetts. At a table in one corner Miss Newcornb dipped out orangeade and was assisted by the Misses Mary and Fanny Childs. In the tea-room the decorations were all in yellow, as in the other rooms. One table had an im- mense center piece of yellow tulips and the other had big jars of jonquils. The candelabra had yellow shades and the gas glowed from beneath yellow screens. There was orange cake, orange ice, orangeadc, and everything appropriate to ar “orange tea.” Mrs. Rossiter served the colIee, Miss Harrington was at the tea urn, and assisted by the Misses Thomas, two pretty girls in dainty yellow gowns, while Miss Ferry made hei‘Self useful at the tea urn and in about every other direction. Among those present were Mrs. Secretary Windom, Justice Strong and daughters, Rev. Dr. Hamlin and wife, Mrs Speaker Reed, Mrs. Ex- Speaker Carlisle, Executive Secretary Hal- ford and wife and many others of Wash- ington’s distinguished residents and'so- journers. “Fore dc Lawd, jedge, (lat razor did jump up ofi dc groun’ an’ get into my pocket,”——was the testimony of Martin Foreman, a colored newsboy, who was before Judge Miller Thursday charged with carrying a concealed weapon. The Judge stared at the bey’s excited earnest- ness, as he iterated and reiterated his his statement in the most solemn and im- pressive manner, and finally replied, “Well, Martin, your evidence is no more remarkable than that of many others be- fore this court evcry day.” ‘ The “first day of spring” here, was really our first day of winter. The air was filled with flurrics of 'Snow and a wind of icy coldness blew throughout Saturday night. The massed beds of Crocus anti Jonquils, which have been in full bloom for the past three weeks in our parks, with all the radiant coloring of the rainbow, have thus far, however, just; defiantly laughed back at the cold wave without Sign of wilt or retreat. Peach, plum and cherry trees have been in bloom here. for over a week. ' The shooting of ex-Represcntalive Taulbee, of Kentucky, by Correspondent. Kincaid, of the Louisville Times, is an- other illustration of the methods still too frequently resorted to by southern gentle- men to redress real or fancied wrongs. The difficulty arose in Kincaid having sent. to his paper the substance of a loathsome scandal charging the then Kentucky con- gressman with a criminal action in’ the patent office, which was first. published in the New York Tribune. Taulbee, who is a large, powerful man, has annoyed and threatened the reporter, who is a diminu- tive stripling and ill. ever since, it is claimed, and on Friday roughly assaulted him. On Kincaid saying: “I am not armed and cannot defend myself against you in any physical struggle. Taulbee, it is said, hurled-out: “Well. you better go and get armed,” and the sequel shows that he immediately did. Kincaid is out on bail, and the ex-congressman is nursing his serious though not necessarily fatal wound, at the hospital. . PERSONALS. Congressman Miles has so far yielded to the blandishments of the aged women’s rights sisters still lingering here as to be induced to introduce their bill adding twelve lady commissioners to the world’s fair board of control. Mrs. Miles is out in Colorado visiting her sister. Henry Crofut, Esq., of Danbury; E. S. Yergason, f Hartford; ex.Congressman S. W. Kellogg and Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Walsh. of Waterbury; and ex-Congress- man Carlos French, of Seymour, were week. The announcement of the death of ex- Congressman Mitchell, of New Haven, was received here with sincere sorrow. Mr. Mitchell was a socral favorite here among a wide circle of friends. The news of the death of ex-Senator James E. English, at New Haven, is also received here with sincere and universa sympathy and grief. Col. H. W. R. Hoyt, of Greenwich, has returned from Fort Monroe and is now here. ' F. 13. Rice, of Waterbury, and David Trubee, of Bridgeport, were at the Arling- ton yesterday. Henry A. Bishop, of Bridgeport, is on a visit to his parents, who are still here. Fred Hoyt, Henry Olmstead and Mr. and Mrs. D. Warren Fitch, ~of Norwalk, are here. The last three are guests at Mrs. Dr. Barbour’s hospitable mansion. Ex-Governor Lounsbury, who was ex- pected here last week on route south, has been detained by reason of the death of the vice-preSident of his bank in New York. AS ever, B. .«._1__.____ Military. Speaking of the military situation, the Farmer says :-— What particularly interests the members of the Fourth are the changes which will follow the elevation of their colonel. That he will be succeeded as the Fourtli’s corn- mander by Lieutenant Colonel Henry Skinner of Winsted, who is next in the line of promotion, is conceded by all. Who shall succeed Lieut.-Col. Skinner has special interest f6r the Bridgeport com- panies and the Stratford company, as they feel it highly important that Bridgeport should have one field officer. Major Crowe of Norwalk, would succeed Col. Skinner in the regular line of advancement, but he is getting old, and is understood not to care about remaining much longer in the servica. Therefore an attempt will be made to secure the lieutenant-colonelcy for this city. The ranking captain is Captain Belts of Norwalk, who would doubtless waive his claims. Second comes Captain Cornell of this city, and third, Captain Shen'den, also of this city. Bridgeport and Stratford command nine of the twenty- eight votes that make. up the elective body, Probably Norwalk's three votes would go with them, leaving but three votes to se- cure a majority and these can probably be easily obtained. The appointment of Col- onel Watson as brigadiervgcneral, gives the Third Regiment the right of line and Colonel Tubbs the senior colonelcy. Orders were also issued Saturday disband- ing the Fifth Battalion, which had become reduced, and was considered unnecessary for the interest of the service. The men are honornbly discharged and any enlisted man discharged, desiring to be transferred to either of the existing companies in the battalion, located in the town of his resi- dence, may be so transferred upon appli- cation in regular form before March 15. Co. C, the Bridgeport company of the bat- talion, was disbanded several weeks ago, leaving one company in New Haven and another in Hartford. Should the men re- enlist tlicse will be retained as the First and Second companies of the C. N.G., being attached to none of the existing organizations. _ ,,,,,,,, A_A+.>_. _- ., ____ Wells Hair Balsam If gray, gradually restores color; elegant tonic dressing. 50e.. $1.00, Druggists, or $1.40 Size prepaid by Express for $1.00.
