NQR'W‘ALK GAZEEL‘TE, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 17. 1390 *- NE WOANAAIV. The Fairlield West association of Con- gregational ministers met with. Rev. F. E. Hopkins at the parsonage Tuesday but. There were fifteen clergyman present Rev. Mr. Biddle of South Norwalk acted as moderator Dr. Noble of Norwalk read a. carefully prepared essay on “What Consti. tutes a Christian Church,” and discussed the subject along the broad lines of evange- lical scholarship, suggesting many valuable points. An interesting discussion followed. The afternoon session was devoted to con- sidering the learned and critical exegit-s by Dr. Plnnlly of Greenfield hill, on Luke 18, 15-17. An invitingr menu tempted and satisfied the appetites of the bretheren. Dr. W. G. Brownson delivered his lect- ure on "How to get Sick,” ill the Methodist church, last Tuesday evening. He rapidly but eloquently sketched ill opening. the ad- vantages of young people 10-day as con- trasted with the condition of things forty years ago. The excuses for ignorance are becomingr poorer every year, and the reason- able demands for healthy amusement are being satisfied. Passing directly to his sub— ‘ject, the Doctor spoke first of the value of light. in a condensed hilt striking way he spoke of the source of light, and its wink everywhere in nature, and then facetiously described the carefulness of some people to exclude as much of it as possible from their homes. They would fasten blankets and shades up to the windows making the room so dark that the physician with difiiculty found the patient, and iflie ‘made so bold as to remove these coverings from the win- dows, arid urged the necessity of light in assisting the sick before he left the room everything would be made as dark as ever, on the ground that “Doctors don’t know everything, thank the Lord." The fee. turer’s second point was the necessity of more pure air. lie illustrated this point from his experience ill families where par cuts and children are allowed plenty of light and air and in others where they are- confined in poorly ventilated apartments and where the sun is not a welcome visitor. In the former case the children were ath- letes, made splendid progress in their studies. and excepting for a broken limb or a. wound the doctor was never called. It is of course impossible so the narrow limits at our command to give more than these few hints at a lecture which held the clme at- tention of a very large audience from the opening sentence to the appropriate and poetic close. The secondhcxhibilion of the Edson pho— nograph was enjoyed in Raymond’s hall, Thursday evening by five times ten pec- ple. ' , Arresting Was held Thursday evening 'last. to consider the advisability of organi ring a board or trade. A committee was appointed to put the matter in shape, and complete so far as it can the desired and de- sirable organization. The new hot water heating apparatus is now in perfect working order in the Con— gregational church. It is absolutely noise less, unlike steam in that' respect. . All parts of the building and the chapel are equally heated, and the temperature isregu- lar. A peculiarity of the atmosphere is its purity. 11. is not such a heat as induces drowsiness, and this is a great gain in a church. The pastor of the Baptist church, Ml- Kidll, will deliver the next lecture in the Methodist church, his subject will be “Our Fisheries.” The Lyceum was reorganized on Wednes- day evening last, and will hold its meetings in Odd Fellows ball during the winter. The first public debate occurred last even- ing. The subject was, “Resolved, that Col- umbus is deserving of more praise in dis covering America, than Washington in defending the colonies.” Principal Gardner led the affirmative, and Dr. Brownson the negative. Rev. F. E. Hopkins lectured in the Pound Ridge Presbyterian church last evening on “Pills for the pious." . After an illness of a number of weeks, Mrs. Dann, widow of the late Charles Danu passed away peacefully into the better land on Monday last. Deceased was a. native of Stamford, and for a time resided in Norwalk, but the greater portionof her life was spent in New Canaan, where she was known and appreciated for her simple and sincere Christian life, and her active benevolence. Her funeral services on Wednesday were largely attended, both from her former resi~ rlence and the Methodist church, of which she was a member. The Rev. C. B. Ford, a former pastor and friend, the pastor of the church, Mr. Scofield, and the Rev. F E. Hopkins officiated. The New Canaan drug store is showing some of the choicest bits of brioa brac for holiday presents, ever seen in this town. The assortment of goods for Christmas are especially useful and unioue. The new Opera House will be opened for the firSt time on the evening of the 23d. Beside the performance there will he a. hall and testimonial banquet to Mr. G. D, Nichols the builder and proprietor.

' The coldest place in Westport on a win- tcr day with the wind from the north, has been far time immemorial the village bridge For several years though, the wind has been broken on about two-thirds of the bridge by a board fence extending from the First National bank to the draw on the north side. This fence being about five feet high, has been a. complete protection. Since the advent of the new draw with its open rail there has been a gap through which the winds have swept, cutting like a knife. Folks 011 their way to church have Often had their order chilled at that point and have often wished somebody would take the lead and erect a high fence there. Mr. William L. (lolev was the man to make the suggestion, and the Board of Trade answering it, ordered a fence erected across tll. draw, and it was completed last week, drawtender Frederick Allen, superintending the work. Thanks for this splendid favor are profuse and are heard from all.

Dr. Frederick Powers w ho is an amateur tobacco grower is making some pretty good examples of cigars from leaf grown by him from real Cuban seed, which are delighting the palates of those happening to be on the lriendship list of the Doctor. He wraps up a flavor from leaf which did not cost to ex- ‘ceed a cent which is superior to what fifteen cents will now buy in the retail market. The question of petitioning the general assembly for a borough charter was dis—- cussed at a meeting of the Board of Trade last Wednesday evening. At the close a standing vote was taken resulting in 19 for. to 2 against. Another meeting at which all taxpayers are invited whether they are members of the board or-not, will be held this evening. temple Lodge, No. 65, F. and A.
