OPYING done with Type-writer. Goodwork

At about 12:40 o’clock yesterday morn-
ing an alarm of fire was sounded from
box 32, to which, and the shrill blasts of the
electric light whistle, the fire department
sponded promptly. The firemen found the
fire located and rapidly consuming a shed
in the rear of the barn. on ‘ the Chichester
place, on West avenue, and the fire had
also communicated with the barn, and
the flames were breaking through the roof
when the firemen arrived. Two streams.
of water were turned on to the blaze,
and the tearing down of the shed was but
the work of a few minutes. The barn
was finished off inside with Georgia pine,
and had to be thoroughly flooded before it
was possible to extinguish the flames,
which was done after an hour’s hard and
vigorous work, during which the firemen
did not allow the fire to, spread. The dam-
age done was principally at the rear
of the barn and roof, and the loss is not
heavy and is :fully covered by, insur~
ance. The barn contained a carriage,
which the firemen got out, and several
articles of furniture. The barn was one
of the best built structures of its kind in
town. The fire was the work of an incen-
diary. Too much praise cannot behe—
stowed upon our plucky fire department,
their promptness especially being. worthy
of mention. They pulled their apparatus
to the scene of the fire, a distance of near—
a half mile from their houses, and were at
work inside of fifteen minutes from the
first sounding of the alarm,which shows
that for promptncss and good work our
little department is unrivalled.

In the difiiculty between Captain Wil-
liam L. Ellsworth,‘the inventor of smoke-
less powder, and his wife, Maria Ells-
worth, custody of their child—s girl of
thirteen years was one of the sources of
the trouble. The Winsted Citizen says
that Mrs. Ellsworth, on Thursday, went
to Hartland, and with the aid of an ofilcer
of the Humane society, John F. Simmons,
obtained custody of the child from a men
with whom she had been placed by the
father, and took the train for South Nor-
walk. “The child,” says the Citizen,
“was very poorly clad, and was eager to
go with her. mother.” On Saturday the
Hartford Times received the following
despstch :—

To the Editor of the Times :—-
Bnooxrmm, August 29.—In Connect-

icut I will punish kidnappers of child in

every way. The abductors are totally

CAPTAIN WILLIAM Lsnrann ELstoxrs.

Ex-Judge William Burke, of Danbury,
whose death took place a few day ago,
was one of the most prominent lawyers of
western Connecticut, and had been law
partner of the late «ax-Governor Roger
Averill, and also Judges David B. Booth
and William F. Taylor. He was the last
survivor of that quartette of eminent Con-
necticut jurists. At the time of his death
he was prosecuting agent for Fairfield
county and prosecuting attorney of the
city of Danbury.- He had also held many
other ofilces of honor and trust. He was
born in Ireland and was entirely self—edu-
cated, never having attended school. He
lived many years at New Milford, where
he was admitted to the bar. Although ow,-
ing many of his offices to the Democratic
party, he was a life- long Republican. He
was a member of the Episcopal church.

The following is from the Hartford
Times: “Well, well! 1 Will wonders ever
cease? Last Week theNorwalk association
did not want the services of Gen. Harbison
as starter, after the drivers’ combination

’ presented » their protest to their secretary

of the association. 'They had aMr. John-

.‘son in the judges’ stand to start, and—every-

thing looked lovely, but somehow things

failed. Saturday Frank McGregor,I(for-

merly'Joe S.,) was expelled with his driver
and a fine of' $400 imposed. thw!
didn’t they put their foot into it that time?
The horse‘went in and wonlaftcr this un—
looked for spat. Boys, there is only one
Way'to get there, be straight. That N or-
walk affair seemed to be a regular full—
sized and hard-hitting boomerang, and

Mondaycvening’s Bridgeport Standard
saysfi'; “,Cohtractthrauk E;§Clark'e, 'at the
jail in tlifisl_ci~iy,"has’ securedrthc contract
for the labor cf the prisoners confined in
the coeniy jall of thchfield county, situa-
ted at Litchfield. This is the second coun-
ty'iinthe state in which Mr. Clarke’s
method of working prisoners has been
adopted, and the commissioners of thch-

.field county made the contract with Mr.

Clarke only after thorough consideration.
The work done at Litchfield will be the
caning of chair seals, the same as done at
the jail in this city. Alarge workhousc is
now iii prom-as of construction at Litch-
field, as there is not sufficient room in the
jail to carry on the work.”

Fifty of the surviving members of the
Legislature of 1883'met at Hill’s Home-
stead, Savin Rock, Tuesday, 26th, and a
meetinngas held at which the officers for

SO UTENOR WALK ,

Rev. Dr. Noble omciated in the COngre-
gational church, Sunday morning, and
MISS Hall, of Greenwich, sang.

Mr. George B. Plaistcd and wife. of
New York, are visiting his mother and
other relatives and friends in this city.

Miss Heathermgton, of Sherry Valley,
N. Y., is visiting her mother, Mrs. Booth,
on Washington street. .

Mr. and Mrs. N. G. Graves have return.
ed from their pleasant visit and ramblings
at and in the vicinity of West Point, N. Y.

Quite a number of our extensive country
tourists have returned so exhausted and
care worn that they admit home life is
needed to recruit.

The “local news" as published in last
week’s GAZETTE, and copied in the Me-
chanics’ Journal, as a specimen of the
news we pay for, was marvelous, but not
more so than the announcement by tele-
graph from Boston that “Ex-President
Cleveland had his hair cut on Friday.”

A practical and consistent life long
temperance man was told on Sunday that
“he was not and could not be honestly
laboring for the success of the principles
of temperance if he did not subscribe for
the Voice,” a blackguard, libelous, Third
Party paper, of New York. The views of
such men are certainly desperate and
fantastic.

It was a very pleasant sight to see young
Mr. Altenbrant in this city again, but it
was sad to know that he had been called
from Chicago to attend the burial of his
father, Leonard Altenbrant.

Mr. James Willmoit, a successfnl mer-
chant tailor of New York, but a resident
of this city, is to remove his business here
and will locate in Lauders’ block. His
presence here will fill a long felt want in
the making of good clothing in a good
manner at a fair price.

A well attended and interesting meeting
of’the Union Gospel Temperance Society
was held on Sunday afternoon:- Testi-
mony was given by several of the reclaim-
ed members how and why they were sober
men, but in no case was it by statute law.

The first gun of the Third party pro-
hibitionists’ campaign was fired in Music
Hall, on Sunday. It is admitted that it
was but a faint report from the would-be
“Queen of the American Platform,” at
Hesvenstone, III.

Now that an effort has been made to

prevent lotteries and gambling in watches,
there isastrong desire that as great an
effort be made to prevent both these vices
in any way and in all places.
' Fred Moulton, who has been visiting
his home in Bath, Me., has returned
greatly recuperated, but longing for the
pleasures and attractions of this city,
especially its pure air.

 

A Sensation in Bridgeport.
Says the Morning News of yesterday:
With magnetic Tom Waller and genial

Colonel Stevenson walking up Main street

arm in arm yesterday afternoon, .a spec-
tacle was produced by the two “little
giants” of Connecticut which even up to
the present moment has stirred ,the
prophets to study the firmament of. the
political horoscope. It was Labor day
when ex- Governor Wallerknocked at the
office door of Vice—President Stevenson.
After that door was closed no one was
admitted for it was guarded by A. J.
Porter, the trusty private; secretary. At:
the expiration .of two hours ~tne»“1itlle.
giants” emerged from their conference,
their faces wrealhed in smiles, and it was-
difiicult to decipher why each was so
happy. _ ‘ ‘ " .

But perhaps it was the banquet to which
they were going that provoked the looks
of eager anticipation. The next door that
was closed on them-was the portal, of- a-
private dining room in the Atlantic House.
Through the key holeacame the steaming
fumes of “consomme,” “capitOl pudding,’
“Troufled voices”, and “congre$sional
pie.” The waiters were kept on the go,
as at the feast were others as well as the
“little giants” to devour the viands and
add their voices to the-zestful"‘toasls.
Over the transom came the sound and
clatter made by knives, forks, china,
spoons, corks and a general desire by all
present ‘tons‘me the next governor of
Connecticut. , . 'g .2. is ,‘a

Half past? three camegand with-it Colonél
N. G, Osborn, editor or the .New Haven
Registeza, He had snififed the political
pudding while in his editorial chair and he
was hungry. * Hungry because for the
first time in three months the Chesterfield-
ian editor was in his chair having passed
the summer among the wilds of California
and in consequence was empty and yearn-
for something substantial upon which to
whet his political appetite. When Colonel
Osborn arrived here the dinner wasover,
but Colonel Stevenson is too gnod an
entertainer lolet his friend go away dis-
appointed, and in less. thanafjiffy Colonel
Stevenson’s black pair of.:.banged tailed
horses, coachman and red under, carriage
park phaeton was at the door. ?' -- T '

Ex—Governor Waller was awarded the
back seat, and beside him Colonel N. G.
Osborn, who was formerly Governbr
Waller’s chief of staff. In front sat Colonel
Stevenson, and Colonel Osborn divided
his attentions between the: governor that
was and the governor that ’tis said is to be.
The party were driven over to iCcdarhurst
in Fairfield, where hospitalities were ex—
tended until a late .hOur. Thé .city was
rife with rumors last night as to the. out-
come of this conference, but'an inquiry at
Cedal'hurst. last evening brought forth the
response, “wait.” ' ‘ -

but a committee appointed bythe Sil‘per— .

sailed Mr. A. L. Hart’s cat, Rival, in the
Larchmont Yacht club regatta, on? the
Larchmont club boat house, Saturday.
He took with him from here Mr. Alexis
F. Downes, and doubtless would have
won but for the fact that‘the Rival lost a
man overboard, and had to put-ship to
pick him up, thus losing time. There
were three competitors. and one of the
others, the Zellca, upset, and the Phyllis
went to the finish alone, Mr. Wheeler’s

League of American Wheclmen, Monday,
in Hartford.

For some unknown reason no call for a
special town meeting to be held on Satur—
day last, as expected would be, was
posted. to take action looking to the
improvement of Riverside avenue. The
people, however, desire that something
de done about it, and there doubtless will
be a meeting in the near future.

On Thursday, Mr. Horace Staples, aged
89, hitched up his horse and drove to a
point north of Greenfield meeting house,
about ten miles from here to call on‘ his
brother, aged 87, and his sister, aged 91.
He found them both well and glad to see
him, and he drove back arriving at about
4 p. m.

A great many people call at John Q.
Adams garden on Riverside avenue, to
look at a tobacco patch there in charge of
Dr. F. Powers, who has a fine crop of
real Havana plants growing. The leaves
are developing in fine shape.
