Land Lubber's “Shore Dinner.” ,, Cosgrove is one of Bailey’s bright young men on the staff of the Danbury News. But he has a failing for dreaming out railway incidents that never occurred, and publishing them. We have waited invain for his account of his adventure at Roton Point.’ He came down from Beantown a few days ago, found his way to the South Norwalk dock and inquired of a coal beaver where he could buy a first-class cabin passage ticket for Roton Point on the steamship City of Paris. The grimy shovcler grinned as he informed him that the City of Paris was not running up into the Norwalk Harbor this season, but the little steamer Medea was about to start for Roton and would land him there in about 15 minutes. Cosgrove looked dis- appointed, but hastened to the dock and. followed some other passengers ' aboard the Medea, which immediately cast off and steamed down the harbor. Our ad- venturer scraped an dcquaintanec with A one of the boat’s stokers whom he con- fidentially informed that this was his “first voyage en ' the Atlantic Ocean" and he didn’t know but "he might get seasick. The stoker reassured him, however, and Cosgrove brightened up and said he “guessed he’d go up stairs on the roof to take a'last glimpse of his native land and ‘then keep his eyes peeled for icebergs and a school of whales,” as he wanted to make 'an item of them to cable home to the paper. The mud digger which was lying off shore caused his eyes to bulge out with amazement and he remarked that it was the first man-of.war he ever saw. He was deeply engrossed in scanning the horizon when the boat slackencd its speed, backed water, land with a bump and a lurch, was made fastto the Roton Point landing. The Beantowncr was amazed and disappointed when he learned that the voyage was over so seen, but scrambled ashore and made straight for Knubel’s paviliOn,whcre he seated himself at a table and beckoned for a waiter, to whom he said :——-“Now my good fellow, I came from far inland for the express purpose of enjoying a shore dinner, for which I understand your establishment is famous. Now treat me well and. I’ll recommend this place editorially to our readers, and send you a copy of the paper.” “Yes sah, jest write down your order, sah,” replied the waiter as he handed the guest a blank tablet and pencil. Gentle reader, what do you sup- pose he wrote on that order sheet as his ideal of a “shore dinner?” Here is a faithful copy of his order :— ' “1 plate Beans, (baked,) “1 sandwich, (Ham,) “3 hard Hens’ eggs, “1 slice Watermelon, “1 tumbler full of spruce Beer.” The waiter took the order to the kitchen and the cook sent it to the proprietor. After a brief delay the waiter returned with the same slip of paper which he handed to the hungry Cosgrove, who turned it over and read on the other side :— “Young man, you have evidently struck the wrong place. This is neitheracattle show, nor a church festival. You can Danbury fair, (which is in session during the first week in October,) where you can also procure popcorn prize packages and red balloons.” Cosgrovc clapped on his hat, tore up three paper napkins for spite, strode in- dignantly out of the pavilion, and instead of waiting for the boat, walked all the way back to South Norwalk and sat pout- ing in the depot for two hours and a half waiting for a train to return to Danbury. va Reminiscential. 0n renewal of my subscription I thought some of your readers would like to know what transpired fifty years ago in N orwalk, but there are very few who will; remember what I shall have to say. It knew about every male person, socially or by sight, in N orwalk. I do not call but four or five to mind,namely, James Mitchell, Chas. Clock, William Church, Alonzo Arnold and Mr. Campbell, now living. I remember enough. those few years I lived in Nor-walk to fill, a column or more in the GAZETTE '. for one year. I will relate a few anecdotes first, and it you think they are worth publishing I will occasionally write some more. I first went to housekeeping in Burrell’s building, ovenJohn A. Weed’s drug store. Charles Isaacs kept a ha'rdw'irre store nearly oppos ite As Charley was of a social disposition, his store was quite a resort, particularly even- ings. Uncle Sam White generally made it his headquartersand noone could embellish‘ a story better than he could, and they were generally about something that happened in Bethel, as he was formerly from that lace. He said there was a woman who woul visit some of her neighbors about everyday. Her visits were ~ never returned, bracause they could never find her at heme, and she was always urging them to call on her. There were a number of ladies she had frequently visited, who got. their work done about 11 o’clock not started ofl, thinking they had tra ped her. She was delighted to see them, an asked why they hadn’t called before, etc. They spent a very pleasant afternoon. It was drawing towards night and there were no preparations for getting tea. They stayed until the last moment, and then called for their wraps. , She seemed to be taken by surprise. She could not think of having them go until they had taken tea, with her, but that was out of the question as it was so late. “Well,” she said, “if you 'won’t stay won’t you have some cake and cheese?” They said they would. “ Then she said: “I am desperate sorry we haven’t. got any 1” . In those days everybody’s cellar was full of cider, he said in relating another story, and it was reported there Was a. member of the church that drank seven gallons of cider a day: The congregation thought that was drinking to excess, so they called a church meeting to talk over the matter. 'He was asked to attend, but he paid no attention to the invitation. At the meeting a committee of one. was appointed to wait on him. The committee told the brother that he thought it was drinking "too much to consume seven gallons 9. day, but it was a very easy matter to reduce it by taking a pint a day less until you get it to six gallons, and then keep reducing until you get it to five gallons, which ain’t too much for anybody to drink. ‘ He told these stories for facts and would give the names of the parties.

The “Spirit Rappers.” En; GAZETTE—The modern Spiritualists claim a total membership throughout the civilized world of about twenty—five mil- lions, ‘of which number eleven milliorls are accredited to this country. They assert that their doctrine of a future life is the only true one. , They denounce Christian- ity as being a worthless superstition, and deny the existence of the God, Heaven, Satan and Hell of the Bible. Their prin- cipal agencies now in operation for prose- lyting purposes are the scances, their press organs and books. and ‘a small army of more than two hundred male and fe- male lecturers, many of whom are engaged the entire season in advance. From Sep- tember to July these speakers travel throughout the land making hundreds of converts, and are well paid for their ser- vices. Among them arc scientists, law- yers, doctors, judges, cx-christian minis- ters and eminent literary men and women, the profundity of whose wisdom it is claimed utterly precludes the possibility that they could become the dupes of any illusory religious hypothesis. Either their doctrine is true, or it is false. If true, the sooner such truth is demonstrat- ed to the world, the better for humanity in general. If it is false, it is high time it should be thoroughly exposed and forever relegated to the limbo of preceding dead and buried heresies. The writer having madea searching investigation of the sub- ject' during seven years, has reached the and he proposes to enter the lecture field the coming season for the purpose of com- batting that fallacy. I will discuss the subject under the auspices and chiefly for the benefit of the church, temperance, G. A. R., or other societies whenever called. Any society desiring to engage my ser- vices can do so by addressing me at Nor- walk, Conn. C. V. ARNOLD. SO UTl‘T-NOR WALK Mrs. Sawyer is visiting friends in Port— land, Me. Mrs. Robert McDonald and daughter Flora are visiting among friends and rela tives in Bath, Me. At no time, on the alarm of fire being given, has the excitement been so great as it was on Saturday night, when it was re— ported to be Crofut & Knapp’s factory, No. 2, that was on fire, but it proved to be a. two story house near it. The damage to the house and 115 occupants were probably as great in proportion. Our soldier boys have returned tanned and hardened by exposure, but in general appearance and demeanor far better than last year, and it was remarked by many an observer how few thought it was necessary to rush to the beer shops to libate or com—- memorate their release from camp duty. Doubtless much of their manliness is due to to the fact that intoxicanis was kept one mile distant from the camp. Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Knapp and family are rusticating among the hills and valleys of Ridgefield. Rev. Mr. Biddle and wife have returned from a very pleasant and beneficial visit ,to Saratoga and vicinity. , ' ' As was expected the “appeal” to consist- ent temperance men and women from the Third party affiliates has been received, and the “appeal is for all who voted for the constitutional amendment to vote for the prohibition candidates for office.” ' The most cogent reason given for this was that their candidate for comptroller was their nominee for state senator in 1888 and he received 119 votes. , A local journal chronicles the event that only one drunk was before the city judge on Saturday. It .mas remarkable, but there- were drunks in the cars from the races who should have been taken there as soon as they alighted at the depot. ‘A_ BEDDING. . The funeral of Mrs. Hannah M.

The school children’s vacation has nearly run out. Next Tuesday the rust which has gathered on the old school house will be knocked off as the first tones are given, the dim, distant echo of wisdom’s voice, which shall be heard crying in our streets when, by and by, our school boys and girls have become full grown men and women. Wendell G. Brounson publishes a letter from Utrecht, in Holland. in this week’s Messenger. He writes in a very interesting and pleasant style. After many years of great physical sufier- ing Mrs. Solomon Lockwood expired on the morning of the 18th inst. The funeral services were attended largely by relatives and friends, from her former residence last Wednesday afternoon. Mrs. R. I. Faucher will reopen her select school for boys and girls September 2d. The reputation for carefulness and thorough- ness, which the school made for itself last year, will no doubt draw a large number of scholars this year. Rev. F. E.

An institution of which New Canaan is very proud is the New Canaan Institute. The principal, Mrs. E. F. Ayres, announces that thefall semester will begin Sept. 23d. 'Rev. Mr. Neide, rector of St. Marks, with his wife, is enjoying a vacation. Mr. Wm. Middlebrooks and wife mourn the loss of their nine months old son. He died on the 17th, and the funeral services were held a week ago yesterday. Miss Martha Silliman was given a genuine surprise party on the evening of the 19th. The rain was powerless to dampen in the least the spirits of the large and cheerful company that made the deacon’s house merry until a. late hour. A lady in this town observes that the Master Workman, Powderly, has a signifi- cant name. Certainly things about him recently have looked Powderly. L. M. Monroe, last week, received a con- signment of ice, the cakes of which meas- ured twenty-two inches. Mr. Kellogg, ‘of the firm of \Veed & Kellogg, has nearly completed his large and beautiful residence, the first to be erected in St. John’s Park in the very heart of the borough. N0 house in the village has a finer site, and if it is to be set the style for other houses in this locality, adjacent prop- erty owners ha e reason to feel happy. Mr. Hodges’ double house is nearing com- pletion. It is the second of the kind he has built in the last two years, and we hope in the next two years he will build two more. The nentest store and residence house in the borough is now nearly finished, and will be occupied by Mr. George Banzhof. It is located on Main street, between Railroad avenue and the Hotel. Tire front is of pressed brick, and is ornamented by a deep bay window.The living rooms are commodi- ous, and the store supplies ample accommo- dations for Mr. Banzhof’s growing business. Billy has a new barber, a handsome Teuton, who so manipulates shears or razor that when his customers rise from beneath his touch they look as though they were born again. ' ‘ Dr. Thomson and family will return from camp to “Daarinia” this week. Mr. Leroy Benedict, son of Deacon Ambrose Benedict, returned from Bethefiljl last week. He has spent some time in’ Bethe] under the care of physicians in that place and Danbury seeking relief from rheumatism and other troubles from which he has been a sufierer for some time, but he has not obtained much relief and is now in a somewhat critical condition. As he is yoga young man it is hoped he may have vithd energy enough to rally. Such is the Benedict & Lockwood are considering the advisability of heating their factory by steam. This firm has plenty of steam, and their growing shoe business is increasing so fast that they have no trouble in keeping warm, but their factory is cold in winter. ——————<—o—>—-—-———-——- Mrs. Charles Smith, of Jimes, Ohio, writes :——I have used every remedy for sick headache I could hear of for the past .Pills did me more good than all the rest.
