* N033 WALK. : GAZETTE. wspsssmy SEPTEMBER- 3 ._ 1330 ' i Our Bridgeport Letter. On last Tuesday evening, in the First Baptist church, one of the prettiest church weddings ever held in Bridgeport was solemnized in the marriage of Miss Hattie Kate Caudee, daughter of the late Hon. 0. D. Candee, editor of the Standard, to' Mr. Daniel Appleton White, of Chicago. The bride is well-known in this city, and has always moved in Bridgeport’s leading society circle. Rev. W. V. Garner, pastor ' of the church, officiated, and was assisted by Rev. Dr. S. F. Smith, of Newton Center, Mass, grandfather of the bride and the author of the national hymn: “My Country ’Tis of Thee." The maid of honor was Miss Lulu Candee, sister of the bride. The bridesmaids were Miss Carrie P. Hammond and Miss Lottie Moore. The ushers were Mr. Charles D. Davis, Dr. C. F. Gibbs, Mr. Jesse R. Gaylord and Mr. Horace E. Jackson. Immediately after the wedding ceremony a reception was held at the residence of Mrs. Candee, mother of the bride, to which only the relatives and friends of the happy couple were invited. A sumptuous wedding sup- per was served by Caterer Hanford, of this city. Mr. and Mrs. White left on an evening train on a wedding tour, which will terminate in Chicago, their future home. The presents were numerous and costly. The floral decorations in both church and house were elegant in the ex- treme, and were furnished by the West End Floral Garden. The Second Connecticut Light Battery Association held their 24th anniversary, last Wednesday, at Seaside Park, this city. ' On Tuesday afternoon and evening last Company B, C. N. G.. entertained the Jackson Guards, of Albany. They arrived here on the steamer “Belle Horton” at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and were accom- panied by many of their friends and the famous Albany City Band. Company B with the Wheeler 85 Wilson Band met them and escorted them to the Atlantic Hotel, where they accepted the hospitali- ties of Colonel Tracey B. Warren, after whichaline was formed on Wall street and the procession marched through some , of our principal streets to Seaside Park, where the visitors were welcomed by General Thomas L. Watson and Mayor Robert E. DeForest. A dress parade fol- lowed,the two bands consolidated, and Company B and their guests marched through Park Place to Park avenue, to State, Main and Wall streets, where they were dismissed. All along the line the visitors were greeted with rounds of applause. At the reception in the evening refreshments ,were served and speech making was indulged in by many of our leading business and military men. The evening festivities were closed by seren- ading Lieutenant Cogill, at his residence on North Main street. V The funeral ol the late E. M. French was attended from the First Baptist church on Saturday afternoon. The mem- bers of the old volunteer fire dpartment attended in abody, as Mr. French was, previous to the organization of the paid fire department, foreman of “Excelsior Company.” Rev. W. H. Walker officiated, Rev. W. V. Garner being absent on his vacation. Arthur W. French has accepted the editorship of the Bridgeport Sun. They have moved into their new quarters on Middle street. Mr. French has had con- siderable newspaper experience, having been connected with the Morning News and other papers. The writer wishes him success. The Evening Post has been interviewing some of the oflicers of the Consolidated road in reference to a new depot. They report that the prospects are not very flattering. Douhtless the Consolidated road will give the people of Bridgeport ample depot accommodations ere long. The Housatomc Railroad Co. is to run another excursion train to Saratoga and Lake George, on the 8th of this month. The fare to Saratoga will be $8.50 and Lake George $9.50. Rev. Beverly E. Warner, chaplain of the Fourth regiment, has been made an honorary member of the Seventeenth regiment. The handsome flag which floats upon the battlefield of Gettysburg was presented to this regiment by Mr. Warner. - Some of our churches having been closed during the month of August. They will be opened the first Sunday in this month. St. John’s Episcopal church and the Park street Congregational church are without pastors. Rev. J. C. Waldo, the aged and honor— able father of Mr. George C. Waldo, editor of the Bridgeport Standard, died at the age of 87 years, on Friday morning last, at his home in New London, Conn., after a. short illness. Mr. Waldo was a Univer— salist clergyman of much ability. and was well known throughout the state and greatly esteemed and beloved, not only by his ov'vn church people, but by all classes in the community in which he had lived for so many years. .United States Marshal E. F. Strong arrested Postmaster Vail, at the East End, on Saturday morning, for neglecting to fix due stamps on second and third class mail matter passing through his office. Mr. Vail claims that the amount due the government is insignificant, and that in the hurry of business he has neglected to place the stamps 'upon the bundles and packages and that some enemy has had him arrested, and denies that the trouble comes from a member of his own house- hold. . w.

The Farmer in nominating for Governor of the state Mr Edwin lloyt proves that there is ability and good judgement in the editorial part of its head. It is time the honor of electing a Governor came to Fair- field county, and the Republican convention could go a great deal further and do a great deal worse than to nominate Edwin Hoyt, Esq., of New Canaan. New Canaan fur- nished in William Edgar Raymond one of the best treasurers the state ever had. and Mr. Hoyt would make a splendid Governor. He is in the prime of life. He is a, solid Republican. He is a very successful busi- ness man. He hasthc record of a square, clean life, and his course in the legislature reflected credit on himself and on the state. He is all right on the farmers" interests, and knows by experience their rights and their needs. He is all right on the temper- ance quest-ion. and is no crank. He. is a man of the people and for the people. The GAZETTE should put his name at the head of its columns. Rev. F. E. i'iI-pklib‘ asked his peeple in the Congregational church, on Sunday. the 24th of August, for nine hundred dollars for a hot water heating apparatus. In less than twenty.five minutes nearly a thousand dollars was subscribed, and there is more to follow. The New ~ Canaan church is one hundred and fifty years old. Its long his- tory has been marked by a peaceful and cmtinuous growth, and it was never in a more flourishing condition than now. With the subscription mentioned above, and the amount raised at the recent lawn party, this church has put its hands into its pockets to the amount of nearly two thousand dollars in the last two months, and if it were neces- sary it could probably do it again. Mr. H. B. Rogers, wife and family en- joyed a short outing at the “Oriental” by the sea last week. ‘ Rev. Dr. Home, of Norwalk, and Rev. Mr. Hopkins will exchange pulpits Sunday morning,S ept. 21st. Dr. Noble has many admirers in New Canaan, some of whom have driven to Norwalk to hear him, and they will accord him with others a generous welcome on the occasion of his exchange. In the absence of Mr. Neide, of St. Mark’s, Mr. Wildman, from the eastern part of the state, conducted services in the Episcopal church. The Creamery Association are considering the enlargement of their pOssessions by the purchase of more land. Rock Spring Creamery is a great success. Professor Justus Silliman, of Lafayette. College, with his family, is visiting with his brother, Deacon Joseph F. Silliman. Mr. Cutliiel, of the managing department of the New York Obsercer, visited over the 24th with his sisters—in—law, the MiSses Bates. Dr. Keeler and wife expect to move into their new house this week. The Doctor has secured a. good practice and is deservedly popular. Raymond’s Hall is being put in first class order and in a perfectly safe condition for entertainments. When completed it will be one of the most attractive balls, with accommodations for three hundred persons, anywhere in this part of the state. Mr. George Comstock, representing Tru- bee & Co., of Bridgeport, of which firm he is a member, was in town Wednesday looking well after his European trip. It is rumored that upon the completion of the double house Mr. Hodges has nearly finished now he will erect a residence for himself a little further west on the same street. If he does so there will be- scarcely a vacant lot to put a. house upon between Main and Summer streets, on East ayenue, and the larger number of the houses on this block have been built in the last two or three years. This shows how New Canaan is growing. It ought to grow. It is very sightly and very healthy. Raymond & Sutton are laying a new floor in their place of business. Their trade is growing so fast that they will have to have a new floor very often. The frame of Mr. Jellifl’s new house, on South avenue, was raised last week. This is one of the most popular locations in town for building sites. Every lot commands a fine view; there is very little expense for grading; and the cellars are dry. Mr. H. B. Rogers had removed last week the long line of fence bounding his lawn on Railroad avenue and on Park street. He proposes laying a concrete walk on both sides of his property, west and south. He will probably terrace his law and terminate it on the sidewalk line with an uncut gran- ite coping. The effect. will be to make his beautiful place more attractive than ever. Farmers have begun their fall ploughing, and some of them are using ashes in large quantities in preference to other kinds of fertilizer. Mrs. Henshon has returned from the west, where, for the past fortnight, she was "in attendance upon her husband, who was taken quite suddenly and seriously ill. Happily he has met with so complete a recovery as to be able to resume his duties. It seemed queer to see people, in the middle of August, sitting in church with“ their overcoats on. A special school meeting was called on Wednesday evening last to try the minds of our citizens as to whether a flag should be raised on the school house September lst. Two generous and patriotic citizens have bought the flag Of our country, a subscription has been liberally subscribed towards the purchase of a flag pole, but some one raised an objection. The result was a great deal of fuss and talk, and one vote in the nega- i tive, but both the flag and the pole, how- ever, are there. We expect the next objec' tion will be to celebrating Washington’s birthday. Some of our strongest temperance men are heard expressing doubt as to the wisdom of “No License” in a_ toss sitliaited shew Canaan is, within twenty minutes of Stam- ford and half an hour ‘of‘Norwalk, where whisky is plentiful and Cheap. I Men in our factories, it is said, take turns in doing the: work of importers of rot-gut. They usually bring up as much as they can hold in them- selves, and enough more in their pockets to make our drinking men well drunk. In this way New Canaan has the paupers rum makes to support, and all the dirty liquor cases to try, and Norwalk and Stamford rumsellers take the money. Of course there are holes a plenty in this kind of logic, but after all there is some good sense in it, too. The remedy is for N orwalk and Stamford to vote “no license.” Indeed the Only efiectual way to prohibit the liquor traffic is to prohibit it, not in spots, but all over. But too many love the “crater” for us to get there yet. WILTON: The Rev. W. D. Hart has returned from his vacation. R. .T. B. Easton, Esq., of New York, formerly a well known resident of South Wilton, was in town last week greeting friends and acquaintances with all his old time cordiality. Aspirants for local offices are beginningto look after their respective interests. As the law now gives each party a share of the offices, the strife is rather at the caucuses than at the polls. I The Rev. C. M. Belden, of Astoria, N. Y., with his family, are spending a few weeks with his father Hon. N. M. Belden. Judge Chichester attended, on \Vednes- day last, the reunion of the legislature of 1889, of which he was a valued and honest member. The selectmen hard wood stick and are after delinquent dog oWners who have failed to register their worthy or worthless ca- nine possessions. Thus far 162 doggies have their names embalmed upon the town rec- ord, and yet the good work goes vigorously on. Mrs. M. D. Clark and Miss Sarah S. Clark wrll spend a week at New Preston Conn. ‘ , S. Rittenberg who has “scraped” acquain- tanceiwith many Of our citizens had his barber’s outfit carried away by burglars one day last week. Mrs. Virginia Wilkirson, of llinghamp- ton, N. Y., is visiting relatives in this her native town. Mrs. Sarah L. Adams, widow of the late Gerardus P. Adams, died at her home, on Monday morning. For many years ill health has kept Mrs. Adams confined to lzer house, but her many friends were ever con- scrous that the friendship of her more active years was never forgotten. A man’s wife should always be the same, especially to her husband, but if she is weak and nervous, and uses Carter’s lron Pills, she cannot be, for they make her “feel like a different person," so they ' all say, and their husbands say so too. is THE only $2 or $4 per month could Widows of those who served No fee is allowed me unless made. distance.

I wrote you about four years ago of the w0n- derfui cure i made with your Cutlcura Remedies of a. bad humor on my face which twe.vc doctors failed to understand or cure. Three) ears ago last fall my son went to Sacramento, Cal., and after two or three months he broke out With 9. humor on his stomach and been, suffering very much. He employed three different doctors. and at last they told him to 0 back to Maine, as his disease was caused by c ange of climate, and he could not live in California. He wrote that he was coming home, for he was dying With a humor that the doctors could not cure. wrote him to get some Cuticura Remedies and take according to directions, and battle freely with Cutlcura Soap, and in four weeks after ne got in letter he wrote me that he was entirely cured. . e came home a few weeks on a visit, and is at home now. His health is good. I have recommended these remedies to a great many people With bad cases that would not yieid to doctors’ medicines, and in no case have I known them to fail to make a cure If you wish to refer any one to me, I will answer, with pleasure.
