Gen. James W. Husted of. Westchester
county says: “ The one man who towers
above all other2men at this time is James
G. Blaine, whom I regard as the greatest
man of any age.”

William Barry, 35, a teamster employed
by Thomas Beardsley of New Milford,

- Sunday attempted a criminal assault on

Mrs. Beardsley,jaged 65, at her home.
Barry escaped to the woods, but was cap-
tured later and jailed. -

In New York last week Mrs. Ella Bur-
dctt'ei of Park street was married to her
foxmer husband, from whom she was di—
vmced several years ago. Mls.Bu1dette

his business is located.—=—Palladium.

Secretary Tracy has issued his order in

regard to the starring of the national en-

sign and union jack, so as to provide im-
mediately for the recognition of the five
new Northwestern states. Space is left
for the addition of Wyoming, which will
not be added until the 4th of next July.

The county commissioners have decided
that there are too many saloons in New
Milford and the members of the citizens’
league are in high glee. Two Hartford
detectives testified to the manner in which
the saloon keepers were violating the laws.
The decision is attracting considerable
attention.

Adeer was first seen in the Litchiield
woods one day last week by men who
were repairing the bridge on the Middle-
bury road. The animal has since been
seen several times. It is said by those
who saw it to be a very handsome speci-
men and as far as locomotion is concerned
fully up to the modern ideas of rapid
transit.

The rumor that O’Sullivan, the Cronin
prisoner, has squealed is. generally be-
lieved. The reason for the denial is in
case O’Sullivan got out he would meet
Cronin’s fate inside of three days. The
disciplmc of the pr1sou is involved- The
more urgent the denial the more the rumor
is believed.

Hiram Halpin, a brakeman on the Con—
solidoted road residing in Hartford, was
killed in that city, Saturday night, by
being knocked from the platform of the
Consolidated depot by a loaded Adams
express truck pushed by the baggage
master. He fell under the wheels of a
moving train.

About 86,000 in gold was paid to the
men at the Yale & Towne manufactory,
last Saturday. Sometimes the banks may
not have greenbacks handy, and then gold
is given out. When some of the employ-
ees got a 35 gold piece, they thought they
had a brand new one cent piece, and
would at first think they had not been
paid in full. This created considerable
laughter among their comrades.- Stamford
Advocate.

A very sensible course is that adopted
by the fire wardens of Middletown. They
are to visit every home in the city during
the next two months and examine each
stove, furnace pipe and chimney, to see
that the ordina'ry precautions against fire
have been taken. Many fires from care-
lessness, defective fines, and mysterious
dispensations of providence may thus be
avmded. ,

The ore found in the gold mine at New-
town has been sent to New York, where
it has received a thorough examination at
the hands of expert assayers, and is pro-
nounced worthy of further mining. This
report has caused great rejoicing among
the capitalists who have become interested
1n the property. It is reported that they
are preparing to organize a joint stock
company on a large scale and will have a
capital of $1,000,000. Whatever may be-
come of it is uncertain, but it evident
that they have not had a bigger gold ex?»
citement 1n that region in a long time.

A Bridgeport mechanic has an inven-

,tion for the adjustment of the propellers

of ocean steamships which he claims will
give much greater speed for the same
amount of horse power now exerted. It
is a new application of the old triple
screw idea, and if it meets with success
will greatly increase speed without add-
ing danger to nav1gation. It m1ght even
decrease it as a smaller amount of power
would 'give a greater speed. In the in-
vention there are three shafts, each con-
nected with a triple expansion engine,
the advantage of this arrangement being
thatin case of abreakdowu in one part
the vessel will not be entirely helpless.

This is the way in’ which Judge Duffy,
of New York, jumped on an old chestnut
in his cburt the other day : “Every
saloon keeper for the last fifteen years,
who has been arrested and brought to the
Essex police court charged with violating
the Sunday law, has said that hewas only
cleaning up. I’m tired of it. Why don’ t

'_ iyou invent a new excllse? Say that you

came down to feed the c'anary- , that your

old tom cat was having a fit behind the
bar; that then: were raisin your bottles- ;.
. that the water was leaking; that the gas
was escaping—anything but cleaning up;

Now you are discharged. "

In the death of Rev. Dr. Henry M. Dex-
ter, Congregationalism loses one of its
staunchest advocates and the religious
press one of its ablest men and most in-
fluential editors. Dr. Dexter has been
connected with the Oongi-egationalz‘st for
over thirty years.

The Stepncy correspondent of the New-
town Bee says: “A New York detective
was at the Captain Seeley place, Monday,
and the family and neighbors say that
there are strong reasons for suspecting a
murder.
has not been seen since Saturday night.
He has left at Mr. Beardsley’s ten suits of
clothing besides his summer pay. Miss
Emma Seclcy is positive that she heard his
voice that Sunday morning talking in the
burn. The man is probably on his way to
Germany by this time.” '

The Bridgeport Sun cxtes the following
“straws” which show which way the
moral wind is blowing in a place “not far
from Bridgeport,” and everybody knows
what that means: “There are three young
women of Well to do families, who are
each a mother outside the bonds of wed-
lock, also that a young men. having won a
girl’s afl’cclion, caused her to purloin
money from her parents and then tied the
town. An old man with a wife has be-
come so infatuated with a widow that he
has lavished much money on her and
conducted himself in such a way that his
neighbors threaten to step in and stop his
foolishness. In another case a man has
deserted his wife and three children and
gone off with a homelier woman ten years
his senior. And it is further said that a
member of a church is under suspicion of
stealing from his neighbors.”

The mystery surrounding the death of
wealthy Capt. N. W. Seeley, of Monroe,
for many years a director in the Connecli.
cut bank at Bridgeport, is evidently as far
from being solved as ever. Both the sui-
cide and the murder theories have their
converts. and a coroner’s jury which will
be impanelled this week, have as yet very
little to work on. A dispatch to the Tri-
bune says that Detective Cronin, of the
city police, has “ woven a chain of eV1-
dencc that renders it almost certain the
Captain was murdered, and that he was
placed in the position where found by his
slayer in order to shield himself.” The
Post, however, intimates that Coroner
Doten considers it a clear case of suicide,
and says: “The story that deceased’s
money was missing from his pockets
when found hanging in his barn was a
mistake. His money was in his pockets
and was found there, so the coroner says,
and he is acompetent authority for the
statement. The detective, whoever he is,
that has been employed on the case, is not
as bright as some detectives are."

KATE FIELD’S MEMORY OF DICKENS.

She Would Not Part With Her Auto-
graphs of the Great Author.

It was worth while receiving a. compli-
ment from Dickens, because it was turned
with art. I know of one note in this coun-
try so felicitous in expression as to deserve
publicity. It was addressed to a young
girl who had been a. constant attendant on
his readings. which were to her a dramatic
revelation. Going up the steps of Stein-

,way hall, New York, on the occasion of

Dickens’ New Year’s eve reading, this girl
was met by a friend who stopped her, say-
ing, “I’ve a ,message for you from the
chief.” Dickens. was always called “the
chief” by his intimate friends. “I asked
him if he saw you in the audience. ‘See
her!’ replied Dickens; ‘yes, God bless her!
She’s the best audience I ever had.’ 1’
“And I’ve a message for Mr. Dickens,”
answered the delighted girl. V‘Vhereupon
she drew forth a basket of violets which
graced the reader’ s desk during the even-
ing, and elicited the following response:
MY DEAR MISS FIELD—I entreat you to accept
my most cordial thanks for your charming New
Year‘s present. If you could know what pleasure

fit yielded me you would be repaid for your deli—

cute and sympathetic kindness.
But I must avow that nothing in the pretty
basket of flowers was quite sointeresting to me

when—you look in the glass! Cordially yours,
CHARLES DICKENS.
Not long afterward, on being introduced
to “.1302, ”a this same girl exclaimed, “Ah,
Mr. Dickens, I owe you so heavy a debt of
gratitude as to be unable to pay even the
interest on it!” '
“I’ll give you a receipt in full, ” was
.EDickens’ quick response, and underneath
a, very ferocious engraving of himself he
wrote:
“Beceived of Miss Kate Field all the
thanks she owes me—and many more, with
which I am better pleased than I appear to
be' 1n the above gloomy presentment of my
state of mind. CnAnnns Drcxsns. ” '
I wouldn’t part with those autographs
for the presidency of the United States.
What sane woman wouldi—Kate Field’s

The funeral of Miss Ella P. Wheeler,
an estimable lady aged 43 years, who died
on Thursday last, was held on Saturday.
At 2o’clock a short service was said at
the house of Mrs. Moses W. Wilson,where
the deceased had long resided. At 2:30
the remains were borne to Memoria
church, where the service for the funeral
of the dead was said by Rev. A. N. Lewis,
of New Haven, Rev. Mr. Ferguson, rector
of the church, taking part. The music
was by a male quartettc from New Haven.
From the house to the church and from \
the church to Willow Brook cemetery,
the casket was borne on the shoulders of
six men. The spectacle, which this fun-
era! train presented, was one of sad impres-
siveuess, and it was heightened at the
grave, after the casket had been deposited
and the committal said, by the singing of a
favorite hymn of deceased. No lines in
prose or poetry on slab o1- monument are
needed to tell the story of the devotion as
a friend, or the order as a Christian, which
were the characteristics of this departed
lady, inscribed as they are deep in the
hearts of all who knew her.

Mrs. Laura Hubbell, aged 81 years,
grandmother ”of Postmaster Hubbell of
Norwalk, died at her home here, Sunday.
She had been feeble since the death of her
son in September, which event, it. is be-
lieved, hastened her departure.

Near the depot at Saugatuck, the Con-
solidated Railroad Company are making
things lively. The feature ofithe week has
been the demolition of what has, for over
30 years, been known as the rubber fac-
tory and its great brick chimney, the
object of the company being to make room
for very vast improvements at that point.
This tearing down of a factory so soon
after an election, in which democracy
seems to have gained ascendancy has
been spoken of. facetiously of course, as
the natural result of the defeat, for the
time being of the party of progress. But
the factor of change in this instance is the
line of the road, and not politics, which
seeks to lurch ahead and, fortunately,
striking this town, struck at the some
time a buildmg, which has not amounted
much since it was put up 38 years ago.
Among the good things promised by the
Consolidated is a new depot of stone.

Rev. Mr. Ferguson, at Memorial church,
Sunday night, preached an eloquent scr-
mon to the village firemen, representatives
of Compo, No. 2, and Pioneer Hook &
Ladder Companies being present.

occurred on Sunday, November 9th.

The death of Mrs. James R. Jessup, at
the home of Mrs. Landon Kelchum, was
a sad surprise to many who were not
aware of her being in town. She had
been in declining health since the death
of her husband last spring. The re-
mains were removed lo her late home
near the village on Tuesday, prayers
being said by Rev. Dr. Hall, of New York,
deceased being a member of his church.
Funeral services were held on Wednesday,
Rev. Mr. Backus and Rev. Relyea ofllcl-
sting.

W. F. Sturges, of Princeton, 1nd., 8.
grand-nephew of the late Peter W. Sturaes,
of Cross Highway, has been here during
the week settling the estate of his uncle.

Members of Temple Lodge, No. 65,
have accepted an invitation to attend ser-
vice at the M. E.churcb, Sunday evening,
Dec. 7, on which occasion chaplain Rev.
H. S. Still will preach.

The death of Mrs. John W. Couch, on
Monday of last week, was as sad as it was
sudden. Her funeral was held on Wed-
nesday and the burial at Greens Farms.

Principal Pratt, of the Staples High
school, is quite an organist. He was heard
recently at the Congregational church.

Mr. Frederick Bradley will soon erect a
new dwelling for himself at Saugatuck.

Captain W. C. Staples, who served in
the navy during the war, has accepted
Secretary Tracy’s invitation to witness on
Tuesday, at the Brooklyn navy yard, the
launching of the famous armored cruiser
Maine. The captain says he shall preserve
the invitation card, which is elegant and
elaborately gotten up, to hand down to
his great grandchildren. “PAUL.”
