Brother Shepard’s Competitor.
Another colored minister is basking in
the glare of notoriety. This time it is the
Rev. Wm. Middleton, of the Camden, N.
J ., colored Methodist church. He hasn’t
outdone Norwalk’s little Dominic Shep—
ard, but he has succeeded in making a
“vindication" necessary, whereas Shep-
ard, we are left to believe, succeeded in
making one impossible. It seems that
Mr. Middleton went home late one night—
where he had been, and for what purpose,
deponent sayeth not. Suflice it- to know
that he had been out late, and, as is
evident from the testimony, his wife was
not; with him, for the evidence sets forth
that when he arrived at his house he was
met by his wife, who, on seeing him,
shrickcd in a shrill, mulatto voice, and
pitched into him with the ferocity of a
catamount, under the apprehension, as
she afterward testified, that he wasa bold,
bad burglar who had come to steal things.
Dazed by this sudden and unexpected
assault, on his own premises, Mr. Middle—
ton, singularly enough, jumped to the
conclusion that his wife was also a burg—
lar, and proceeded to defend himself and
his castle. A detailed description of this
midnight struggle between a man of God
and his wife, each thinking the other a
burglar, would be exciting. But it will
never be written. Nobody saw it. How
long the battle raged nobody will ever
know. When it was over, the floor was
strewn with clerical blood and hair and
shreds of hide and clothing, and the
valiant wife was minus one thumb, which
her scratched and tattered spouse spit out
on the floor, having bitten it off slick and
clean. It was only after both had been
mauled beyond recognition that each one
recognized the other and they discovered
their mutual mistake. The next day the
neighbors made a complaint and had the
minister arrested, but as the wife was
unable to appear at the trial the case was
adjourned, and in the meantime Mr.
Middleton’s friends have brought suit
against both the Justice and the consta-
ble for false imprisonment, and a big
indignation meeting was held by the
members of the church to “vindicate” the
clergyman and give his enemies fits.
Some there be, however, who wink and
‘blink significantly, scouting the idea of
“mistaken identity” as absurd, and argu—
ing that the wife did not look for her
hubby that night, but that when she heard
him approach, she went joyfully to the
door, and—was disappointed in the man ;
that he instantly “took a tumble” and
proceeded to eat up her thumbs, and that
the “mistaken identity” yarn was subse—
quently hatched up between them to
prevent a scandal. But you can’t tell
anything about anything by what people
say. Even Brother Shepard isn’t as black
as his own photographs show him to be.

Sportive Savages.
A friendly and peaceful band of braves
are the “Indians of the Boweiy,” an or-
ganization of harmless warriors who, long
after Saturday night has faded away,
plow the waters blue in their big canoe,
“Pokerhuntus.” They are not the kind
of bloody savages you read about in the
dime novels, who thirst for gore, and
butcher folks and cut their hair off under
the roots, and chop into their brain boxes
with tomahawks. Nor do they wear red
blankets and buckskin moccasins and
feathers as a full dress costume. They’re
quite civilized—for Indians—and wear
socks and scarf pins, and some of them
ride the bicycle. They are a clannish
tribe, these Indians of the Bowery, and
on their cruises they allow no one to go
with them who does not accompany them.
Their weekly cruise is across the sound,
or far down the coast. The last one took
them to a desert spot on Long Island,
near a light house, where they offered
sacrifice of clams, corn, oil and things.
The tribe was made up so : grand sachcm,
Charles Reilly; plain sachem, J. Tierney;
big gun, W. Cree; medicine man, It.
Goldscbmidt; high muckamuck, Ed.
Burr; puekachcc, W. Banker; wahoo, A.
Stommcll; muclibiginjuns, John Ryan,
Will Olmstead, John Bull, Chas. Buckley.
They made the welkin ring with their war
whoops and songs of victory ; they smoked
the pipe of peace; they held councilstof
consultation, peace talks, chalk talks and
cake walks; they hunted the festive goat
and trailed the bloodthirsty mosquito to
its lair; they ate some more clams and
poured out some more oil until the spirit
of hilarity seized hold upon the hermit of
the Island, one Perry, and he danced a
barbarous dirge upon the table. When
the festivities ended they )e-embarked in
their canoe and sailed for the land of their
wigwams, their squaws and pappooses,
Tierney executing an O’Gallaha war dance
on the deck all the way, while the braves
beat time against the gunwalus.’ The sun
was slowly sinking to rest when they
reached the dock, after an expedition that
was a joyful success, and which was only
one of a series.

A Monument to Judge Fitch.
One of the men of force and originality
in the New York Society, Sons of, the
Revolution, was‘ Judge John Fuch, well
known in Norwalk, where many of his
ancestors are buried, a man of great stature
and a. frequent speaker at the meetings of
the society. Judge Fitch died last Sep-
tember, and his funeral was attended at
Grace church, (Episcopal) by many of the
members of the society. The remains
were placed temporarily in Woodlawn
Cemetery, just north of New York City,
but, about a month ago, were transferred
to Fairmount Cemetery, in the village of
Kcnsico, N. Y., on the Harlem Railroad.

The Cunard Steamship Company was
established on the 4th of July, fifty years
ago, and its half century has been one of
extraordinary progress in transatlantic
navigation. The first vessel of the line
was the paddle—wheel steamer Britannia,
1,144 tons and 740 horse-power, which
made the trip from Liverpool to Boston in
fourteen days, eight hours. The Etruria,
whose fastest time between Liverpool and
New York is six days, one hour, and fifty
minutes, is of 8,000 tons and 14,500 horse.

The circulation of a newspaper is
important as deciding the value of its
advertising columns, providing such cir-
culation actually represents the demand
for it. To print a certain number of
papers {1 day is an easy matter. All that
is required are press facilities, paper
and ink. To distribute that number in
response to a demand for it is, however,
an entirely different matter. So that
when an advertiser is told that the paper
soliciting his business prints a certain
stated number of papers :1 day he should
seek for a confirmation of the claim in
the receipts by the paper in question from
the sale of them—New Haven Register.

Aspider’s web sociable was held in the
North church chapel on Friday evening.
It was one of the most mysterious, unex-
plainable and unique entertainments ever
held in this city. It was a complete entan-
glement from beginning to end, and was
under the management of Mr. Martin
Cowles, Mrs. Eli C. Smith, Mrs. Dr. N. E.
Wordin, Miss Bertha Sage and other ladies
connected with the church. The first prize
was awarded to Mrs. Eli C. Smith. Miss
Clare Mackay received the second prize.
The new West End M. E. chapel, a
branch of the Fairfield avenue M. E.
church, was dedicated yesterday. Prof. L.
T. Upham, of Drew’s Theological Sem-
inarv, of Madison, N. J., preached the
dedicatory sermon. The cost of the build-
ing and the furnishing of the same was
$3,500, which amount was raised yesrerday
by subscription.
Supt. H. M. Harrington, of our public
schools, is being talked of as superintendent .
of the New Haven schools. The Palladium
says‘lie is almost sure of the appointment.
Rev. Percy S. Grant, of Fall River,
Mass, has declined the call recently ten-
dered him to become rector of the St. J ohn’s
church, of this city.
The Rev. Dr. Burnett \Vright, for many
years pastor of the Beckley street church,
Boston, and at present of the First Congre-
gational church, New Britain, preselied an
excellent sermon Sunday morning in the
North church, of this city. The Doctor is
a very able man and was listened to with
great interest by a large congregation.
Brotherhood of Railroad Traiumeu. It
is quite a compliment to Colonel Stevenson
to be invited to deliver an address before
this association, It. is the firsc public
meeting of this Order held in the eastern
states. AltliOhgh an old organization in
the West, it is comparatively new in the
East.
Some disappointment is made manifest
over the census returns for this city. There
is no doubt there has been some error
or oversight on the part of the census
takers, and it has been proposed by the
mayor, aldermen and common council to
have a new census taken. The general
opinion, taking into consideration the school
enumeration and the new directory which
has just been issued, is that we number
about 50,000. The census takers give us
only about 46,000. The writer congratu-
lates Norwalk on the increase in its popula-
tion. We hope and trust it will continue
to increase in the future as it has done in
the past. -
A handsome compliment was paid the
Rev. Dr. W. W. Clark, by the notion of
the F irst Methodist church of' this city, in
inviting the Reverend Doctor to return to
his former charge in this city, at the expire. .
tion of the Rev. L. R. Streerer‘s pastorate
which terminates next April. Dr. Clark
has made his reply to the First M. E.
church people substantially as follows:—
“While I was your pastor I tried to serve
you faithfully and in return received many
tokens of your love and confidence. Now
after an absence of four years, in the pros-
pect of the expiration of the limitation of
your present pastor, Brother Streeter, to
is an expression of confidence on your part
for which I cannot but feel myself greatly
unworthy.” In closing, he says:—“Let us
all earnest-1y and unitedly pray that if I
should be sent to you, I may come in the
fullness of the blessing of the gospel of
Christ.” \Vheu Dr. Clark was here before
he was greatly beloved by the Melbod't
people and by the whole commu‘ '13:.
There is a great need of a new depot in
Bridgeport, and the Bridgeport Standard
has suggested that a petition should be pre-
sented to the next legislature selling forth
the necessities for relief in such cans.
There is no doubt that such a petition would
be largely signed, not only by the people of
Bridgeport, but by everybody who hrs
000331011 to take the cars at our depot, r ‘ it
is a well known face that the accommoda-
tions are inadequate to the wants
of the community. The writer has
been informed by a prominent oificial of the
Consolidated railroad that a survey is being
made to go under or 0 :er the crossings and
it is mcst likely that the track will be
elevated through Bridgeport, which will
eliminate the danger of the grade crossings.
'Ihe Housatonic Railroad Company has
announced an excursion for July 17th. A

and Poughkeepsie. The excursion will
return the same evening. Fare $1.50 for,
the round trip. This will be a delightfil
