Mrs. Richard Crowley, of Lockport, N.
Y., has written a book called “Echoes of
Niagara.” She is the wife of 9. politician,
one most trusted by and true to Ruscoe
Conkling, and her book is very interesting
reading. She evidently knows whereof
she speaks plainly. She says:—“One of
the mysteries I can never solve is why
men suddenly placed in power become so
utterly changed. They at once seem to
mistake hardness for greatness and mean-
ness for statesmanship.”

The census shows a 50 per cent. increase
in the population of Torrington, some—
thing over 6,000. Many extensive manu.
lecturing plants have been established
there within the past decade. Among
these are the Coc brass works, which give

employment to between 500 and 600 hands. ~

They have nearly'completed a new build-
ing worth $150,000 to be used exclusively
for the manufacture of brass tubing. The
Excelsior needle works are another im-
portant industry and is the largest of its
kind in the country.

Major Holmes, Sergeant—at—Arms of the
House, said the other day that he had not
received orders to dock the pay of absent
members, but he admitted that there was
a great probability that such action might
be taken if certain members notorious for
their absence persxst in remaining away
without cause, although protecting their
votes with private pairs. This dockage
will be the last resort to compel attendance
and secure and hold a. quorum. It has
not been enforced in many years—in fact,
no one connected with the House has any
recollection that it has ever been enforced,
but all think it would be very effective in
persuading the truants to return.

Jennings writes from South Norwalk to
the Bridgeport Post as follows:

A stranger visiting the depot near the
hour of 7 in the morning is surprised at
the large number of people arriving by the
trains. The majority are employed in
factories and engaged in various mercantil
pursuits in this city. Why is this? Ther
are acres of unoccupied land within the
city limits. Why do not the capitalists of
South Norwalk erect suitable buildings
and rent them at 8. price within the means
of the working class ? All would be bene-
fitted. Not only the land holders, but the
merchants as well. This short sightedness
on the part of property owners causes
thousands of dollars to be expended beyond
the city limits every year. The success of
a city depends on the encouragement
given the laboring class.

The latest returns from Supervisor
McCarthy put a different look on the total
population of the state, which now, it
seems almost sure, will be over 742,000.
Taking the 1890 returns by counties, as
amended by the latest estimates, and the
population in 1880, with the increase in
each case, the table Wlll stand as follows :

 

1880. 1890. Inc.

Fairfield, 112,042 149,782 37,740
Hartford, _ 125,352 145,476 20,094
Li tchfield, 52,044 53,498 1,454
Middlesex, 35,589 39,338 3,749
New Haven, 156,523 208,669 52,146
New London, 43,152 76,600 3,448
Tolland, 24,112 25,057 945
Windham, 43,856 45,200 1,346

Total, 622,700 743,640 120,940

This is a gain of over 19 per cent, which
surpasses any decade since 1850—60, when
the gain pergcent. was 25 and a fraction.
From ’60 to ’70 the gain per cent. was
16.6 and from ’70 to ’80 15.8. I

The Danbury News tells this little story:
“On the platform of one of the excursion
cars yesterday stoodZa Louisianian. One
of the young ladies of the refreshment
committee asked him if he would l’ke a
sandwich. The traveler shook his head
in the negative and the young lady passed
on. She had scarcely entered the car when
the Louisianian changed his mind and
shouted, ‘Hold on, young woman, Iguess
I’ll take a couple of them, How much
money do you want?’ The young lady
said that the sandwiches were furnished
by the citizens free of charge. ‘What’s
that? Free? My G—d! have I struck
Paradise?’ and the Louisianian gasped
out his thanks as be swallowed a whole
sandwich at one gulp.”

The state council Order of American
Mechanics held its annual session Wednes-
day in Norwich. Chief of Police Buttery,
Captain Wm. M. Stevens and A. N. Peck
were the delegates from Pilgrim Lodge,
No. 54, of this town, in attendance at the
session. The order has 6,000 Connecticut
members. The national council of the
order will meet in Bridgeport, September
22d, when there will be a state parade the
first day of the session. Two years ago
this order numbered 2,800 and had
twenty-five lodges. Now it numbers 6,—
000 and has fifty-eight lodges. It has
also extended its work into Rhode Island.
The following officers were elected: State
councilor, E. S. Pond; vice—councilor,
Joseph Smith, of New London; State
council secretary, Charles H. Adams, of
South Norwalk; treasurer. Frank E.
Fields; inductor, Charles Camp; examin-
er, A. O. Broden, of Rhode Island; State
council protector, Charles Horton; repre-
sentative to the national council, Thomas

Advice to Mothers.

Are you disturbed at night and broken of
your rest by a. sick child suffering and crying
with pain of cutting teeth? If so send at once
and gets bottle of Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing
Syrup for Children Teething. Its value is
calculable. It will relieve the poor little suf-
ferer immediately. Depend upon it, mothers,
there is no mistake about it. It cures dysen-
tery and diarrhcna. regulates the stomach and
bowels, cures Wind colic, softens the gums
reduces inflammation, and gives tone and
energy to the whole system. Mrs. Winslow’s
Soothing Syrup for Children Teething is
pleasant to the taste, and is the prescription of
some of the oldest and nest female nurses
and physicans in the United States, and is for
sale by all druggists throughout the world.
Price 25 cents a bottle. 1352

Charter Oak Park.

Again the fast horses are headed toward
Charter Oak Park, and will be the great
attraction to all lovers of speed. The
sport opens on Tuesday, the 26th, and
continues four days. The coming races
promise to eclipse any of the successful
meetings in past years, which is equivalent
to the best. The faint-hearted horses who
started in the circuit have been taken
home, leaving the cream of each class still
in. New horses are showmg up well, and
developing speed that is remarkable.
These will all be at Charter Oak Park.

The prOSpects for the $10,000 race were
never better, and this is true of the other
classes. Among the first ’uns who will be
seen at Charter Oak are Pamlico (’164),
Mambrino Maid 017%). Prince Regent
(16%), Fearnaught (’19), J. B. Shedd
319%), Betty Jones (’194), Edith R. 017%).
Siglight (a Kentucky flyer with no record,
but who has shown a mile in (’144).

The Ridgewood Stock Farm, Danbury,
will be represented by Andante, Quarter—
master and Albion ; Geers, of Spring Hill,
Tenn., will have the fast paccrs Hal
Pointer and Brown Hal, and the trotter
McEwen. The Village Farm, Buffalo, 0,
J. Hamlin proprietor, will show a string
of twelve horses, including Belle Hamlin
(12%), Mocking Bird, Jocko and Justina.
Goldsmith will also have a string of a
dozen fast ones, including the gaeat five—
year—old stallion Pamlico, Richmond, J r.,
Stephanie and Camille. Golden has five
or six, among them Mollie J ., Little Eva
and Emma E. '

In the pacing classes will be seen the
sensation of the year, Dallas, with .a
record of ,115», made at Cleveland.

Madame Marantettc, ever popular, has
a novel exhibition for this meeting. She
will ride one of her handsome horses and
drive three others in a hurdle race, leaping
four hurdles in the mile. -

Excursion rates will be allowed on all
the railroads. The park is easy to reach,
being on the direct line of the New York,
New Haven and Hartford and the New
York and New England roads.

[From Bridgeport Standard]
W. B. Hall & Co’s Fifth Enlargement.

Merchant W. B. Hall is smiling broadly
to himself just now as he imagines the sur-
prise with which his patrons will view the
“chapel annex,” on Cannon street, in the
rear of the Main street store, when it is
ofllcially opened for their inspection. Many
persons have facetiously addressed Mr. Hall
as “Rev.” because the exterior of the annex
represents a church or chapel so closely.
The interior is even more inviting than the
exterior. A Standard representative wan-
dered into the spacious addition yesterday
and was struck with one important feature.
Broad shafts of light descend in all direc-
tions and give the place a clear, beautiful
illumination.

“This building will be used solely for
the sale of fabrics,” said Mr. Hall. “Goods
by the yard only will be displayed here.”

The arched roof gives a lofty, roomy ap-
pearance rarely seen in the largest New
York houses. The roof is so arranged that
the light comes from the top, making but
few shadows and affording a place unsur-
passed for the matching of goods. Freshly
polished counters and stools are ranged
along the sides of the room, while at one
end is a large balcony, which in time will
be devoted to the sale of Butterick’s pat-
terns.

The spot will be a: favorite one for ladies,
and selecting silks, dress goods, etc., will
be but a. plearuro on account of" the con-
venient and handsome surroundings. The
“chapel” will be illuminated in the even-
ing by incandescent electric lights. Down
stairs a spacious basement will be given up
to the sale of oil cloths, window curtains,
upholstery and house fixtures of all kinds.
Here also a beautiful light is obtained from
both front and rear windows.

s- Messrs. Hall & Co. feel specially pleased
with the new departure because it is the
fifth time they have enlarged since they
commenced business at the “Old House at

Home” twelve years ago. The firm con-
siders that this repeated demand on the
part of the public means that they desire
to patronize the house and in each instance
that the facilities of the store have been
increased, the firm’s confidence has been
fully met; for additional purchasers and
increased prosperity followed each enlarge-
ment. About a year ago the firm took the
whole of the Y. M. C. A. building on Can-
non street. Now they have the “chapel
annex,” and in another in place of the pres-
ent moin structure will stand the magnifi-
cent store and office building, which is to
make one of the finest buildings in the city
and be a credit in every sense to this enter-
prising city.

‘ Two months ago, or a little more, Mr.
Henry Sanford solved the problem of en-
abling the dry goods house of Wm. B.
Hall & Co. to continue their business with-
out interruption and inconvenience while
the great six-story office building (which is
to be built on the site of the present store)
should be in process of erection ; the double
brick house next to the old Y. M. C. A.
building on Cannon street was purchased,
and after consultation with his architects,
Mess. Longstaff & Hurd, a unique and origi-
nal structure was planned and lo-day is
complete and being rapidly filled with dry
goods. Considering the fact that the foun-
dations and the general construction of the
building are such that in the future a six
story building can be carried up without any
material change except to take off the roof,
and also that in addition to the building
proper with its lofty airy gothic roof with
its curved trusses, all entirely self-support-
ing, resting only on the outer walls, not a
post to be seen, and the large room forty by
sixty feet has been filled with counters,
shelvmg, &c., together with all the neces-
sary fitting for the upholstery department
in the basement—Messrs. Longstafi & Hurd
have showu conclusively that in addition to
originality and good taste as architects, they
possess practical knowledge as carpenters
and builders, and can produce results rarely
equalled.

During the present month, operations
will begin on the corner of tbepresent
store, the shelving will be removed from the
outer walls and without interrupting the
business of W. B. Hall & Co. for a single
day Messrs. Lonngstafl' & Hurd propose to
take down the brick walls, the plate glass
fronts, and build the entire first story with
rock-faced Ohio sand-stone. The elevator
entrance on Cannon street, the office en-
trance on Main street, and the corner en-
trance to W. B, Hall’s will have elaborately
carved arches, polished granite columns,
and talico vestibules; the work is nearly all
ready to place in position. As soon as the
foundations have been strengthened and
supplemented, work will begin on the first
story and one of the handsomest buildings
in the state will soon show itself to an ad-
miring public.

Abram Danzier’s suit against an ice

poison will be watched with care by the
public. Those who sell food and drink
should be held responsible for the whole-
somcness of what they sell, and there is
no better way to enforce this rule than by
making it pecuniurily disadvantageous to
the vendors to sell a deleterious article.-—-

SO UTENOR WALK

Mr. and Mrs. E. K. Selleck have return-
ed after a two weeks’ very delightful visit
among the White Mountains of New Hamp-
shire.

Mrs. W. H. Swords and daughter, hav-
ing spent much time in visiting among the
hills and valleys of Connecticut and the
East, are now at home, greatly benefitted by
their travels, and enjoyed reading the GA-
ZETTE in their absence.

Our soldiers made a fine display in march-
ing to the depot and embarking for camp
duty, and all wish them success.

The 3d Party contingent delegates to the
state convention have returned not very en-
thusiastic over the prospect of electing their
ticket, but their souls are comforted by the
prospect. that the state will pay for printing
their tickets. Some of the rank and file say
last year there was too much “ Knight” in
selecting candidates, and this year there is
no “ Waters ” in it.

Bro. Delano from Heavenston, Ill., and
Bro. Bailey from Ohio, have been in town
some days, apparently enjoying old scenes,
but we do not hear of any political ad-
dresses delivered .

During the strike on the N. Y. Central
R. B. no delaybr annoyance has been so
great to the passengers on the N. Y. & N.
’H. Road as that caused by the derailment
of cars on the Harlem branch at Fordham,
on Friday, causing a delay of just two hours.

NEW-CANAAN.

Brother Kirk has cleaned the windows
of the editorial department of the Messen-
ger, in order that he may see passing
events more clearly, and because he be-
lieves in sweetness and light.

The editor of the Record says New
Canaan isa good place to visit. Better
than that, it is a good place to stay after
you get here.

The Sunday schools of the Congrega-
tional and Episcopalian churches had a
glorious day and a delightful picnic at
Roton Point,.last Thursday. The pro-
prietors of the Point were cry courteous
and obliging, and it is a great accommo-
dation to have so charming a spot within
easy reach of this village. There was a
large company on the grounds.

Dr. Clarence W. Brounson and Miss
Margaret T. Raymond, were quietly mar-
ried at the Emmanuel chapel, Springdalc,
on the eleventh. They are visiting at
Taunton, Mass, with the Doctor’s sister.

NOW and improved sidewalks have been
ordered in the borough. The only criti-
cism we have to offer is that the order
touches some streets troubled compara-
tively little, and overlooks others that are
used nearly every hour of the day. Would
it not also be better to have a uniform
kind of sidewalk ? As the present order
reads, the borough is likely to be dotted
with patches of concrete, flagging and
so-called gravel; the latter generally in
winter amounting only to so much mud
except when great care is taken in making
it. By the present order some who have
always taken good care of their walks,
will have to spend a. good deal of money,
and others who have done nothing will
not have to pay a cent.

Mr. C. R. Stiles, of East Bloomfield, N.
Y., and Miss Harriet Burchard Clark are
married to-day, at the residence of Mr.
John H. Platt, in the town of Norwalk,
by the Rev. F. E. Hopkins. The cere-
mony is to be performed at 12.30.

Rev. F. E. Hopkins preached in Brook-
side chapel last Sunday afternoon.

The finest piece of buckwheat in this
town may be seen on the lot adjoining
the residence of Mr. S. B. Hoyt. It makes
one’s mouth water for cakes and honey
just to look at if.

F. M. Hawley has received the nomina-
tion for Comptroller on the Prohibition
ticket. Mr. Hawley is an enthusiastic
temperance worker. His business is
cutter for H. B. Rogers & Co.

 

September lst, has been abandoned, we
regret to say, owing to the fact that in the

business concernscannot complete the
necessary preparations. But Labor Day
is to be celebrated all the same. The
American Mechanics, the G. A. R., .the
school children, &c., will parade. A flag
will be presented to the town, and raised
on a new flag staff on' the old school
house; A brass band will arouse latent
patriotism, and two crators, Hon. Charles
E. Hill, and Mr, W. J. H. Bohannan, of
Stamford, will spread their wings, and it
will be a great day. But more—the
ladies of the town will provide acollation.
Nothlbg in this town is ever complete
until we show the world how we. can eat.
September first will be a great day.
