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. G. L.
cridgeport, September 1, 1890.

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.

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

her “feel like a different person," so they '
all say, and their husbands say so too.

Which Three Doctors Could Not Cure,
Cured in Four Weeks by
Cuticura. Remedies.

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,
