The New York and New England road gave a “stag party” to its patrons, Saturday, and took them by special train from Hart- ford and by the steamer “Cape Charles” ,from l’Vilson Point to New York city. The new freight and passenger service which has recently been put in operation, goes direct from Springfieldto H'awleyville, ‘.hence by way of the Housatonic road to lVilson Point and over Long Island sound to New York. It secures greater promptness in the deliv- ery of freight, and business men in Spring- field can send in their orders to New York by wire in the afternoon and receive their goods the following morning. The object of the excursion was to give business men and other leading citizens along the route an Opportunity to inspect the new facilities. (The decks at Wilson Point and at New York, and the line of steamers plying be« tween, are operated under the name of the New England Terminal company, a recent organization. There were over 300 excursionists aboard the “Cape Charles” when she took her de- parture from the pier. They had been picked up all along the route and all had a “solid” and prosperous appearance, and a determination to enjoy themselves could have been read in their countenances.’l‘hose who had no “politics” to talk, or who were not drawn by the fresh green beauty of the Housatonic valley, stretched a rubber at whist, and there were many “good hands” throughout the train. Every car was a smoking car and nearly every man a smok- er, cigars of a superior flavor being provi- dcd. The interested railroad companies were represented as follows: President, J. A. Bostwick of New York, ex—Lieut-Gov. James L. Howard of Hartford, W. H. Star- buck, General Manager Charles Howard, General Freight Agent Hubbard, General Traffic Agent Abrams and General Superin- tendent A. A. Jackson of the New England system; President W. H. Stevenson. H. C. Coggswell, general freight agent, and C. T. Van 'Alstyne, assistant general freight agent of the Housatonic road; and C. B. F. Pond, general freight agent of the Meriden, Waterbury and Cromwell road. Among the other prominent men were Mayors Pease of New Britain, Page of Meriden and Presi- dent Allen and Secretary P. ll. lVoodward of the Hartford board of trade. On board the Cape Charles refreshments were served upstairs, which were indulged in with becoming moderation, and in the dining-rOOm was served an informal dinner, which was happily not interrupted by speeches. There was hardly a ripple 0n the Sound, and the weather was as near perfec- tion as could have been wished . Thus the steamer made the journey within her schedule time of two and one-half hours. There was an hovr for rest and recreation at New York, and on the homeward journey a supper was served. The party were taken under Brooklyn bridge and viewed the mammoth span with interest from beneath. On the homeward journey a committee properly assumed the duty of‘ drawing up resolutions of thanks to the New York and New England company. President Allen of the Hartford board of trade was the; chair- man, and J udge Chamberlain and First Selectman Bassett of New Britain made speeches. D. S. Plume responded for the corporation. That was the closing event, and during the remainder of the journey, the men who had undoubtedly been “talked out," relapsed into a silence which was only broken by the card-players. ——~———<—o—>—-———- The Cost of Newspapers. mea suggestive article on newspa- pers, by Eugene M. Camp, in the June Century, we quote as follows: “What is the total annual cost to the wholesale purchasers of news—namely, the publish- ers—of the entire news-product of the United States? An answer to this ques- tion would be of interest, but it has never been answered. For several years I have been gathering information upon which to base an estimate. Publishers have uni- formly extended me every courtesy ; nevertheless I find it an exceedingly diffi- cult quantity to arrive at, and for my figures I do not. claim absolute accuracy. Publishers in this country annually ex- pend something near the followmg sums for news : For press despatches $1,820,000 " special " 2,250,000 " lucalncws 12,500,000 $16,570,000 The business ;of ~the Associated Press, a mutual concern which pays nothing for its news, and which serves its patrons at approxnnate cost, amounts to $1,250,000 per annum; and that of the United Press, a stock corporation, is 450,000 per annum. The former aims to provxde news about all important; events, in which work $120,000 in telegraph tolls is expended ; while the latter endeavors, above all else, to provide accounts of events occurring in the vicinity of the respective papers serv- ed ” - —————--<-O->-—— Divided Skirts. “Washington women are adopting di- vided skirts,” said a dealer in such femin- ine equipments to a Star reporter yester- day. “Only last week two ladies of cabinet families bought them here. 1 will venture to say that 500 women in this city are wearing them to-day, and within a year there will be 5,000. For riding es- pecially they are coming into favor, and the freedom of motion they allow recom- mends them for dancing. Some peOple imagine that the divided skirts is a substi- tute for the dress skirt, but of course it only takes the place of the pctticoat. Several makes have been introduced, both English and American: but any woman can manufacture such things for herself, having once obtained the pattern.” The corsetlere said that dress waists as a substitute for corsets were coming stead- ily more and more into use among Wash- ington women—a result chiefly due to the persistent crusade against tight lacing.—, Washington Star. , Turkey ought to consider herself very fortunate that Russia did not strike back at. her kisser. The tendency of Chicago people to get up in the air has led an inventor of that city to prOposc elevated Sidewalks. It is believed that the capture of “Jack, the ink slingcr,” removes Mr. Cleveland’s most dangerous opponent in that line. The Prohibitionists ought to have no trouble in finding most eligible Presiden- tial timber for ’92. For instance, there's Colonel Roscwater, of Nebraska; Major Rainwater, of Missouri, and Private Freshwater, of Ohio. ' Mr. Halsted’s Brooklyn rS'tmzdard- Union was making some most interesting sugges- tions concerning the advisability of fight- ing the ice trust by towing in some of the ocean icebergs, when some Yankee yelled “salt” at the top of his voice. ' A chivalrous exchange bubbles over like this: “How caua man say that a woman has nothing to do? In one year she gets dinner 365 times, washes the dishes 1,095 times, gets the children ready for school twice a day for 180 days, gets the baby to sleep 1,450 times, makes about 800 calls, and as she wishes for something she hasn’t. every minute, she wishes 60 things an hour, or 4,380 things in a year. Who says that a woman has nothing to do?” Connecticut pensions issued on Fri- day: Original, Henry F. Lewis, Willlman- tic ; Orange Walbridge, Stafford Springs; Lewis Carey, Yalcsville; Stephen Roper, New Britain; Julius Thompsom, Bridge- port; Edward E. Dayton, Winchester Center; Ephraim A.

Cincinnati Enquirer :—-Wiuc drinking in America doesn’t turn out well if kept up from day to day. A distinguished Frenchman, on important business here, lately told me that he abstained from claret altogether in the American cilmatc, “whereas,” said he, “I drink nothing but claret and no water when I go to France. I become so heavy in this country after I drink half a bottle of wine at midday that I can hardly attend to my business. One reason why champagne is in vogue in this country is that it comes nearer to the re- quirements Of the climate than any other wine.” Thursday Coroner Doten finished his investigation in the case of the accident at Danbury whereby Eugene Buntcn of Bridgeport was killed. Conductor Joseph E. Sherman of the New York and New England road is severely censured. In concniumg Coroner Doten'savs: “1 sun that Eugene R. Buntcn came to his death from a fracture of the skull caused by his being caught in the door of a car on the Housatonic railroad, in a collision on said road at Danbury, on the 6th day of May, 1890, as described. I find that said col- lision occurred because said conductor, Joseph E. Sherman, of the New York & New England road, did not notify the employes of said Housatouic road in said yard, that said coal cars had been trans- ferred and did not guard them by signal.’ The Connecticut Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows met in New Haven, Wednesday, to the number of 200 or more. The G. M. stated that there had been aii‘iincrease of nearly 1,000 members since 1889, and that three ncwlodgcs were instituted during the year. The G. S. reported 134 deaths during the year, 12 expulsions, 229 suspen- sious, and 118 withdrawals by card. There were 1,053, initiations, 116 were ad- mitted by card and 25 reinstated. The total receipts amounted to $116,920.08, and the expenditures were $100,241.24, leaving a balance Of $16,676.84. The Daughters of Rebekah report an increase in membership Of 262, and a net gain in funds of $655 54. The following Officers were elected for the ensuing year: Grand Master, Fred- erick S. Hunt Of Bridgeport; Deputy Grand Master, George H. Cowcll of Waterbury; Grand Warden, Charles B. Ware Of New London ; Grand Secretary, Frederick Bols— ford of New Haven; Grand Tl’CflSlll'Cl', John M. Smith of Waterbury, and Grand Representative, James Bishop of New Ha- vcn. The Sun advises the public to meet the census enumerator politely and pleasantly. Don’t attempt to rebuke him or argue with him. He is simply carrying out his in- structions, which are definite and manda- tory, as far as he is concerned. He has no power to change the schedule of questions committed to him by his Superintendent. Probably he had rather be excused than not from pressng your wife with quest' is as to her physicxal condition, or from sk- ing you whether the house you live in is mortgaged. His task is not an agreeable one, and, in common decency, you ought to make it as easy as- possible. Answer the questions that come within the legiti- mate scope of Government inquiry as promptly, plainly, concisely, and satisfac- torily as your command of language per- mits. When the enumerator comes to Question 22, “Whether suffering from acute or chronic. disease,” and so forth, maintain an impressive silence, and keep it up until the end of the schedule is reached. Then bid him good-by as pleasantly as you bade him good morning. But don’t argue. ROUGH ON TOOTHACHE. 15c. At druggists ROUGH ON PAIN PLASTER. Poroused. 15c. ROUGH 0N COUGHS. Troches 100.

Iu them rest two soldiers of the rev- olution, one of the war of 1812, one of the war with Mexico, about thirty-six of the ' war of the rebellion, and one confederate. The Sacred ashes of these lie in eight ceme- teries, tho'se of the Revolution being in the old burial place in Greens Farms, while the representative of the Mexican war, General Henry M. Judah is in the old cemetery on King street. Each of these will be remem- bered on Friday next, and an interesting programme of ceremonies by McDonough Post, No. 63, G. A. It” the fire department- and the citizens, will be carried out in per- petuation of their memories. Flowers will one of the fields where he fought, and there sperscd Willi music. The day’s programme as announced by Post Commander \V. E. Albin, G. A. R., is very complete. In honor of the dead and in anticipation of the great anniversary Rev. C. C. F urguson, at Memorial church preached a special sermon Sunday evening, the Post by invitation, and . many Citizens being present. The Cedar Point Yacht club will sail their first regatta of the season over the triangu- lar course, Cedar Point, on Friday, May 30. The contests by the club to follow will oc- cur July 22d and Sept. 10th. Mr. “Tom” Scott the great railroad man, with a railroad friend, dropped on lVest- port a few days ago, and was driven about town. He was charmed with the situation as it fell beneath his vision and as it was explained to him. He was able to see what we are all aware of, that lVestport has more natural beauties" than most towns in the State. Mr. Scott said the river which enabled vessels to penetrate to the village was a rare natural advantage which LO western town however enterprising, could boast of. He thought the character of our land cultivation showed thatv our soil,thcugh pretty well bound with stones and rocks,was yielding in actual profit many per cent., in the long run, more than was realized at the west, and he was not slow in saying that he would like to locate here. He said there was no money in the west for men who had to work for a living, and that. the best place for capital was right here in the east near New York. Mr. Scott said he should come and see us again. The great meteor said to have appeared one night last week, and exploded, turns out to have been a toy balloon sent up from the village by a citizen who couldn’t wait for July 4th. On Sunday morning, Rev. H. S. Still preached in the Congregational church, and the lIotlxo not Mr. Daolrnc pvonolxod in dist church. Saturday, burglars entered the house of Mrs. Almira Christopherson, while she was visiting a near neighbor, and carried Off several valuable articles. A number of men were at work repairing the road in front of the premises, and saw the burglars c0me and go, but supposed they were connected with the place, and for that reason suspect- ed uothing. , Some forty persons who went to Bridge- port, Friday night, to see the play of Shen- andoah, assured that they could return at midnight on the lVashington express which was to stop (‘3) at Westport, took the train which didn’t stop, and brought up, all in good order at South Norwalk. Some walked home, a distance of five miles, while the majority look rooms and returned in the morning. Capt. H. P. Burr, J. G. Hyatt and John RXPalmer are our census enumerators, and a correct result may be looked for. MiSs Fanny Nash, daughter of Edward H. Nash is visiting her Sister, Mrs. Theo- dore D. Robinson in Troy. Dr. and Mrs. L. T. Day spent Friday in New York, rambling about Central Park and other interesting points. Pioneer H. and L. CO. having received their new truck, will sell their old one, worth anywhere from $300 to $500 for for about a quarter Ofthe latter sum. Mr. Watts’ pleasure yacht. “Uarda,” has been launched and Mr. Cannon"s “Legrand ll.” will be soon. Chief John S. Jones of the Fire Depart- ment- will be on hand Friday to make the jubilee parade in honor Of Decoration day a success. Mr. Miles A. Hoyt, for many years with Mr. O. 1. Jones in the tin business has re- moved to New Canaan. Mr. and Mrs. Leverette H. White, of Brooklyn, will spend Friday with Mr. and Mrs. John Q. Adams. Janitor Brady should be spoken of as worthy the highest praise for bringing Wil- low Brook cemetery up to a standard of beauty not excelled by any cemetery in the country. . “PAUL.” The “Silent Drummer.” Did you ever think what your ad. in the newspaper is doing for you? When you close your store in the evening and go moms to your family and fireside, not thinking about yodr business at all, then it is that the paper is being pored ox’cr in hundreds of homes—the homes from which your trade is drawn. And there is your ad. doing its work silently, but surely, and if you have taken'pains to make it attractive its work will be all the more effective. This is repeated over and again, and is no doubt what inspired some writer to call newspaper advertising a “silent drummer.” ‘ 4‘ Av 7‘ In every town where Savena is introduced the be strewn and spcbchcs made.
