I .1 S0 UTH-NOR‘WALK Mr. William Palmer was a guest at his father’s home on Sunday, but returned to Brooklyn, his present; residence, where ‘he may be-in- the near fixture, a republican alderman of that city. The new building of Messrs Swartz & Corbet is nearing its completion, and will make quite an imposing structure. It is currently. reported that the rumsel— lers whose licenses have been opposed" by many of the most sterling residents of this ‘city, have resolved not to attend any of the churches, or contribute to their support, whose ministers have taken an active partin the opposition. This is certainlyndreadful to contemplate. - The New York Star’s Connecticut edition gives an account of a light between two Brooklyn policemen, but omits entirely a notice of the fight between a South Norwalk rumseller and a carm‘an, the latter being the victor. It the South Norwalk prohibition club would allow the W. C. T. U. members to conduct their Sunday conchu es much more frequently there would be less (Lsecration of the day, and the interest and profit of those gatherings greatly increased without reading-Deliihd’s epistle. Thanksgiving day was very generally ob— served in ant around this city, and many a benevolent act might be recorded. but none of them Were of greater significence than the payment by a rumseller, of the line of his assistant and two dollars extra, as much as to say, don’t do it again. The Y. P. S. C. E of the Congregational church have issued an attractive programme card, containing the subjects for their Sun— day evening meetings, and who are to con— duct them for the next six months. The subject of temperance is to be considered as missionary work. -.__...___. .. ..._...___.___..._.__. WESTPORT.

Adams, returned to Brooklyn, Monday. “Israel,” one of the largest and handsom— est cats ever in this town and owned by Mrs. Noah W. Bradley died a few days ago aged fourteen years. So strong had the at— tachment for this cat become that there was almost as much sorrow expressed over its demise .as if it had been a. child. The re- mains were placed tenderly in a casket and surrounded with flowers. A grave was dug and the casket deposited, and upon the mound will be placed a granite block in- scribed with the name, age, and date 0 death. The widow of the late Captain Frederick Jarvis, and daughter, Miss Mary Jarvis have returned to Norwalk. The committee appointed to lay out a fire district have performed their duties, and it is expected that a meeting of taxpayers re- siding in the district will he called at once to consider the proposition of a Boston firm to introduce public water provided the firm can be guaranteed an income of $1.500 an nually. The sentiment on this question so for as known, is favorable to the proposition to introduce as proposed. The remains of the late Mrs. Walter Peck, who died Saturday at the Retreat for the insane at MiddlctOWn were brought here Sunday night and the funeral was held from the residence of Mr. Frederick Morehouse. father of the deceaSed, on Wright street, Tuesday afternoon.

Brounson and wife spent Thanksgiving day in New J ersey'.‘ ' Mr. John Patterson was quitd‘ill at his residence “Craigilea,” last week, but is now at business again. There were a number of pleasant family gatherings in town Thursday celebrating the nations annual feast day. Costies & Barton our popular bakers baked three hundred and fifty loaves of bread one ,day last week and sold all but six on ves. For Thanksgiving they also baked nine hundred pics, a generous third of a pie for every man woman and child in town. Mrs. M. J. Dann, mother of Mr. Geo. L. Dann and Mrs. G. l). Nichols has been a great sufi‘erer for the past fortnight from the results of stepping on a nail. Gangrene has now set in and her life is despaired of. A fresh gravel sidewalk is being laid in front of the hotel and in other places throughout the borough. ‘. The new well on John Bliss’s premises is forty-five feet deep, and a good part of the way it was drilled through solid rock. Prof. N K Ferris is working hard with his choir, getting them ready to sing some fine Christmas music at the Congregational church. ’ ' . . The boundaries of the lawn 'in front of the Episcopal church have been designated by eight nicely finished wooden posts. Rev. F. E. Hopkins and Rev. S. J. Austin of Darien exchanged pulpits last Sunday morning. - . There was a lively foot ball game on the ball grounds Thanksgiving day between two New Canaan teams. Brother Kirk has added a Sanborn paper cutter to the equipment of his printing office. A new well is being dug for the use of the Congregational church to operate its hot water heating apparatus, and to supply con- veniences in the kitchen of the building at the numerous sociables given by the socie- ties of this active church. Our new watchman, Mr. John Weed, isa terror to wrong doers. Nature built him for his work. Last week a refractory Ca naanite trifled with him about two minutes, and then John took him in hand and trotted him on his knee for about a block and a half. When the victim finally escaped the clutches of the law he remarked: “I guess I made a mistake,” and then sought home by the light of the moon. Rev. Henry S. Kidd preached to a con gregation made up of other denominations in the Baptist church Thanksgiving morn—- ing. His audience nearly filled the church, and it heard an excellent discourse from the 145th Psalm, 16th verse. Over forty years ago the Rev. A. H. Fur- guson was the pastor of the M. E. church in this place. Last Sunday he occupied the same pulpit and had the pleasure of preaching to a few of his old parishoners. The most of. them have 'of course died in the long interval, but to those who remain the services were a pleasant connecting link of golden memories between the past and present. The new drop curtain for the Opera House is ready to be hung. The scene rep- resents Gen. Sheridan at the battle of Win— chester. The completion of the Opera House itself, seems more than “twenty miles away," at present, but when it finally gets there, We may expect the same display of ability in winning success as is prophesied by the picture on the drop curtain. The Messenger of last week does not re— port nny ‘of Brother Kidd’s ThankSgiving discourse, but it does give thirteen lines of the Rev. William Dummond’s sermon, preached on Thanksgiving day, Nov. 5th 1772. Brother Kidd must wait his turn. Next Tuesday evening Dr. Brounson will deliver a. lecture under the auspices of the -Epworth League of the M. E. church. His subject will be “How to get sick.” Mr. George H. Jellifi', who received a severe injury to his right eye, recently, is slowly recovering, but is yet unable to leave the house or attend to business. The full extent of the injury cannot yet be fully de— termined, but the sight of the eye will be greatly impaired, if not destroyed. Mr. Will Warren has taken some excell— ent photographs of private residences and business places, which he will use to illus— trate his forthcoming business directory. The Pulpit: and tho. Stan. Rev. F. M. Shrout, Pastor United Brethren Church, Blue Mound, Kansas, saysz—“I felt it my duty to tell what wonders Dr. King’s New Discovery has done for me. My lungs were badly diseased. and my parishioners thought I could live only a few weeks. I took five bottles of Dr. King’s New Discovery and am sound and well, gaining 26 pounds in weight." Arthur Love, Manager Love’s Funny Folk’s Combination, writes :——-“Aftcr a thorough trial and convincing evidence, I am confident Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, beats ’em. all, and cures when eVerything else fails.

' Anthony Comstock made an excellent ad- dress yesterday afternoon in Hawes Opera House, to gentlemen only. He gave a very interesting account of his busy life, and his efforts to suppress the evils of gambling and disreputable houses. The first lecture of the Stoddard series was largely attended on Wednesday evening. The subject, “Vienna,” was handled in a very pleasant and interesting manner and was beautifully illustrated. His descrip- tions of the Austrian capitol and its beauti- ful parks and other public buildings were minutely described. The Thanksgiving service at the First Presbyterian church was very largely at- tended on Thursday last. The decorations arranged by Miss Spinning, daughter of Prof. Theo. A. Spinning, organist of the church, were very elegant and appropriate for the occasion. Rev. H. A Davenport, pastor of the church had prepared an elab- orate printed programme. which contained the order of services, including the singing and responsive readings. The organist, Prof. Spinning, the double quartette of the W ash- ington Park M. E. church, Miss Lillie Warner, Miss Lacy and Messrs. Russell and Allen, each and all rendered their parts very acceptably to the large congregation present. Rev. Mr. Davenport occupied . about ten minutes in his address, and spoke of the object of ThankSgiving day, and said we ought to all be thankful for the blessings God has bestowed upon us as a people and as a nation. His remarks were listened to with much interest. This service was originated by Rev. Mr. Davenport and Prof. Spinning, and other officers of the church. and was of a difi'erent character than tho services generally held on Thanksgiving day. The long sermon generally preached on such occasions was dispensed with, and a short practical address was substituted. The singing was beautiful and muchly . appre- ciated. . Plans have been drawn for arow of one story brick buildings to be erected on the property of Sanford Bros., at the (‘ul'l‘lel' of Golden Hill and Main streets. 1.: the rear will be a hotel and cafe. The old house now standing on the right will be torn down immediately, and the new building will be erected at once. Longstafi & Hard are the contractors. Miss Lillie R. Kissam spent Thanksgiving day with her mother in Brooklyn. Miss Elizabeth Hinsdale died at Prince- ton, N. J ., on Tuesday last. She was a sister of Rev. Mr. Hinsdale of Princeton. formerly pastor of the First Presbyterian church of this city. and was a lovely ’christ- ian woman, and during her residence in this city she was engagad in good work for the Master, and was greatly beloved by a large circle of friends. She was of a modest, re- tiring disposition, and although in feeble health, she did what she could for the good of others, and was a friend to the poor and unfortunate. Her death was caused by con- sumption, after a long illness, which she bore with christian fortitude and was ready to go when the Savior called her. Home. Her remains will he brought to this city for interment. w. G. L. Bridgeport, Dec. 1st. 1890. _... __ .._. .. _ ..._‘§> .-.—.. W. .-.- Where Blg Bowlders Come From. Wherever the glaciers melted they left an immense amount of “drift”—that is, sand. gravel and stones of all sorts, which had been frozen in the ice when the gla- ciers were forming. . The stones of this drift are of all sizes. Some are as small as pebbles, others as large as small houses. There is ono at Bradford, Mass, which measures 30 feet each way, and weighs 4,500,000 pounds. There is another on 31 in Vermont which is even larger than at, and which must have been carried by the ice across a valley lying 500 feet below where the stone now is, showing that the ice was 500 feet thick. Great bowlders of trap rock extend through Connecticut on a. line running to Long Island sound, and as some of the same kind are found in Long Island, the glacier is believed to have crossed the sound, carrying these rocks with it. An immense statue of Peter the Great, in St. Petersburg, stands on one of. these glacier bowlders of solid granite, which» weighs three million‘ pounds. One of the largest bowlders in America is in the Indian , village of Mohegan, near Montville, Conn. The Indians call the rock “Sbehcgan.” Its top. which is flat and as large as the floor of a good sized room. is reached by a. ladder. Sometimes those bowlders are found perched upon bare ledges of rock, so nice- ly balanced that, though of great weight, they may be rocked by the hand. They are called “rocking stones.” Near the little Connecticut village of Noank, on Long Island sound, there is an immense bowldcr called by the people there “Jemimy’s Pul- pit.” It was formerly arocking stone, but the rock has worn away below it and it can no longer be. moved—Teresa C. Crof- ton in St. Nicholas. One 01:! but. The age of the Belfast cat has been quite accurately defined. Alonzo Beck'wlth, who lives at the Head of the Tide, had a cat which recently dial that was 20 years and 6 months old."
