Congress.

The progress made in Cong'ess last
week gives a reasonable prospect that its
long and laborious session is likely to be
brought to an end with the close .of the
present month.

Saturday’s session of the Senate was
devoted to culogies of the late Samuel J.
Randall, while the house was similarly
occupied in paying tributes to the late
Senator Beck.

According to Speaker Reed’s count,
Saturday was the twentysecond day of
the presentsession devoted by Congress
to speechrnaking in memOi‘y of dead sena-
tors and representatives. There have
been about 225 working days this session.

ionday. in the House. the Tarifi' bill
was represented from the committee on
ways and means and a committee of con-
l‘erencc was asked for on the disagreeing
volt-s of the two Houses and carried. The
democrats made spiteful assaults on the
bill in general, and Major McKinley as
vigorously repelled them. In reply to the
charge that no time had been given the
democrats to discuss the measure, the

Major said :—

“II‘ the committee on rules had erred in
reporting the resolution it had erred in
givmg too much time for debate. He
ZDVIICC attention to the fact that not
fifteen minutes of the two hours had been
devoted to the discussion of the Senate
amendments or to the tariff question at
all. The. methods of the majority Were
known to the country. The trouble with
members on the other side was that they
:‘Ild not (IYSCIISS measures, but called
names; and while they were calling
names the majority had gone on and done
more public busrness than had been done
by any I‘IOIISO of Representatives since the
foundation of the government. You say
this bill allords no protection for the
South. Just glance at the duties fixed
upon yellow pine, white pine, coal, iron,
sponges, oranges——takc anything you pre-

North. And we propose to go right on

the twelve years in which we have con-

A Female War Veteran.

IlliiiiilI'Ii claims to have the only female
veteran of the late war, who is receiviuga
pension for actual service as a soldier in
the ranks. ’l his veteran is Mrs. William
Siufield. Elie enlisted in Company E,
Seventy-second regiment New York State
Volunteers, at the same time her husband
did. She went to the front, and was with
her l‘tlgillrtflll in most of the severest bat-
tles of the war, including Williamsburg,
Seven Pines, Peach Orchard, the second
battles of lilalvern Hill, Second Bull Run,
Fredericksburg, Chantilly, Chancellors-
ville, and Gettysburg. She draws $15 a
month by special act of Congress.

_It is said that Ex-Goveruor Lounsbury
Will not decline a Republican nomination
for Congress in the Fourth district—Sen-
final.

“It, is skid” is way off its base. Mr.
Lounsbury is not a candidate for Congress
and now that Mr. E. J. Hill has taken
himself off the course, Mr. Miles will have
no competitor if he desires it renomination.

 

Even in this dreary weather it is not
uncommon to see the blue sky through
a rift in the clouds, but as long as there 5
nobody who can pull it. down through, or
turn the rift'wrong-side out, there’s little
satisfaction in the blue or the rift.

On the Fair Grounds. .

Not a little of the credit for the success
of the Gentlemen’s Driving Association at
their racing meetings and the popularity
the Norwalk racing track has attained un-
der their management is due to Mr. W. H.
Lockwood, the experienced and capable
horseman who has charge of the stables
on the grounds, and who handles and
trains horses from far and near. He has
now in his keeping a score or more of
horses of record, reputation and value.
The horses are at present stabled in the
barns back of the grand stand and are ex—
ercised daily on the track and groomed
and attended to by experienced and care—
fully selected grooms who give them the
assiduous and careful attention their value
demands. The large exhibition hall is be-
log transformed into a winter barn where
the sleek animals will have warmer stalls
and in the main portion of which a pad—
dock will be prepared for exercising when
the weather is such as to forbid outside
exercise, a tau-bark floor being one of the
features of the paddock. It is expected
that after the racing season Mr. Lockwood
will have horses enough in his keeping to
fill all the half hundred stalls on the plaCO.

Among the horses at present on the
placé-are the following:

’1‘. S. Morison‘s chestnut gelding,
“Picket,” which tOuk second iiiOney in
the members’ race at the recent meeting.
Also Mr. Morisou’s “Blue Dick,” a roan
pacer capturing second money in the 2:4’)
class. ‘

“Maud," sorrel mare belonging to Geo.
Nash, Westport, with a record of 2:35;.

“Priest,” owned by George A. Kinner,
of Danbury, a brown pacerfrom Kentucky,
that can go in 2:25; also a lightning sorrel
trotter belonging to Mr. Kinner which
gives promise of great speed.

“Gold-dust” and “Silver," a pair of
speedy road horses not yet four years old,
belonging to a Mr. Willis, of Brooklyn;
also a very fast 3 year old colt sired by
“Warwick Boy,” owned by Mr. Willis;
also “Hayseed,” a brown gelding pacer,
owned by the same, and “Athos,” a $5,—
000 stallion four years old, standing here
for the season, owned by same.

“Lillie Paterson,” roan pacer, owned
by John Paterson, good for 2:45.

“Victory," brown pacer, owned by W.
H. Lockwood, won first money in Nor-

':11k and Waterbury and made a big
showing in New Jersey and at other meet.
ings in the western circuit,

“George Wilkes," bay trotter belonging
to W. B. E. Lockwuod, Jr., now going
about the western circuit, and from which
a good record is confidently expected;
also “Little Sam,” belonging to Mr. Lock-
wood, brown gelding trotter with a record
of 2:33. _

Fine and speedy bay road team owned
by Mr. Jones, of New York; also “Prince,
Jr.," a fast brown colt sired by “Kentucky
Prince," from which great things are ex—
pected.

“Billy Wood," bay trotter with a record
of 2:25, owned by Colonel Wood. of New
York.

And others, including a number of valu—
able brood mares belonging to parties in
difi'Terent parts of the country.

The Danbury Fair.

We would call the attention of our
readers to the advertisement Of the Dan-
bury Agricultural Society, in another col-
umn, the success of which has become
proverbial.

The attendance at the yearly exhibitions
Of this society has within ten years more
than quadrupled itself, and the concourse
of people one meets there is really startling,
but is easily accounted for when one con-
siders the variety and size of its depart-
ments and the choice display of each and
every exhibit.

The Fair hasgdevcloped into the largest.
and best in the New England states, and
its almost phenomenal success is due
mainly to its just and generous manage.
merit, the ollicers having always endeay-
cred to carry out their programme in
every particular, sparing no time, etlort
or expense in catering to the wants of its
patrons.

The above is the. title of a book published
by the well known publishers, C. A. Nichols

most eminent theologians and screntists in
the world have been selected to write ex-
pressly for this work, thus everv shade of

Fire In Danbury. ;

Shortly after 3 o'clock Monday morning, i
fire broke out in the boarding house kept I
by Mrs. Tully, on Main street, alongsule l
of the Horisatonic railroad station, in '
Dabury. The fire was discovered by
Mrs. Tully and was located in a closet on
the second floor. She hastily gave the
alarm, and in company with her husbanil
and little child made their escape from
the house by way of the back stairs. At
the time the fire broke out there were ‘3!)
boarders in the house. Of these all sud-
ceeded in making their escape, but ten
who were asleep on the third floor. These
were hemmed in by the fire, which hail
destroyed the stairway, thus making
escape by that means impossible. Th"
smoke at length became so dense that
they were obliged to sit and hang on to
the window sills while they obtained It
breath Of fresh air. After remaining iii
this position for seVeral minutes the'
were taken off by the firemen.

Among those who were ‘aslcep on It)
third floor at the time the fire broke Oit
were Maggie and Jennie Hauley, two sis—
ters. Maggie finding escape impossib
by way of the stairs, looked about I”,
some other means, and at length saw on?
of the boarders climbing down the shutter}
Of the building. She decided to follow
him and after considerable work succeede
in reaching the ground in safety. Jenni:
attempted to follow her sister, but tht
shutter gave way and she fell to the
ground, a distance of ‘25 feet, and received
injuries which will probably result in 110';
death. She was removed to the Wooste
House. The loss in the building wil
exceedfi$5,000.

‘va do not make

be sold profitably in Boys’
Suits for $4 or $5. It is not
possible to produce. strictly rc-
liable clothes at so low a cost,
and we are out of the race for
merely "cheap” clothes. We
never knowingly offer a gar-
ment that is not capable of
earning its price in satisfacto-
