The. tickets enclosed had on their pink
surface the printed announcement “Grand

Now had Senator Henderson been the
only senator thus applied to, all might
have bee-“well and by‘this time the broken
legged but happy father Would have had ‘
five. of Senator Manderson's silver dollars
in his pocket. But itso happemd that a
few days ago the Ncbrsskn statesman had
seen a eimiar certificate in which the
name of the first—born child was declared
to be Justin blorrill Duvall, and he like-
wise knew that the venerable senator from
Vermont had tom 05 of his salary and
sent. it. to the suffering father. ' Mr. Man-
dersoo begun to investigate the matter
and the. reside-cf hisinquisicc caused

NEW LoNDON HALBoR.

Colonel linuston has suhiiiitted an inter
esting report to General Casey, the chief oi
engineers, regarding the improvement oi
Shaw‘s cove. in New London harbor. H-

' say, and his recommendation has been

submitted to CongreSs by Secretary Proctor:
“The improvement asked for is a channel
l00 iect wide and 12‘fcet deep at mean lov.
water, extending from the draw-bridge along
the north and West sides of the cove. a total
length Ol about 2,000 feet, and an anchorage
bend of the channel of the slime dep h and
about 400 by 8* 0 feet. 'l he prese i depth
in these parts of the cave is from 2.} to l-
i'eet tit-mean low water, averaging about 4
ea. No appropriations have been made
for this impintant' harbor, exrept for
removal of a part of a shoal lyii-g east of the
New London Nordic-ii railroad wharf, in
the upper part of the harbor; the amount
expended‘there Was $10,t~00, and that work
was substantially completed Ill 1886."
A CONNECTICUT DEMOCRAT TO THE FRONT.
A comprehensive circular. printed in
large type, and ornamented by a woodcut,
announces that “the Connecticut delegation
of the Fifty-second Cimgress have United
enthusiastimliy to support. Hon. Gcwl'ge
Sawter, editor and priprietor oi" the Siam-
furd News. as their Candidate for the Post
mastership of the next Hiaise of Repre.
sentativea at Washington." The circular
is a unique production, and oneefourth oi
the space on the first page is devoted to
flaring headlines, which read as follows:

The circular states that Fditcr Santa- is
known as it “hustler ;” that lie is one of the
most successful workers in the democratic
party in his state;that he has fought his

ties possessed only by a few; that has vim,
energy and versatility; that his progress

There is much more in the some lauda-
tory strain that is hardly worth quoting,
exCept that it is stated that when be secured

comliture of the other applicants,” he had
“nothing to recommend him save his gen.

The Fire Bar in halibut-y.

Danbnry’s tire bug is carrying on his
reign of terror with unabated vigor and
audacity. (in Saturday night he added new
laurcls to his wreath of fame as an‘uncon-
scionable villain by starting rivo fires with
disastrous results in each case. At l0
o’clock the firemen we'esiimmoned by a
general alarm to White street near the
New Eilgland crossing where 0.1mm.»
Bmtbers’ large lumber yard was on fire.
The flames started in a long lumber shed,
and it Was evident that a considerable quan
tity of oil had been used to saluratetbe
lumber, as the flames leaped along the. en-
tire. length of the shed with lightning
rapidity a d sprang high in the air, making
asuhlime spectacle. B be the firemen
co ild reach the spot two lumber shed: a: d
various piles ol'luinber were enveloped in
flames and even the prompt work of the
fire fighters could not prt-Vent the destrue
tion of a half dozen cars loaded with lum-
ber that stood on the II. R R., side track.
The. Hoiisatonic freight depot was also
considerably damaged, and Osborne Broth-
ers’ business office was totally consumed
The scene was visited by thousands of peo:
ple while the tire was in progress. The
loss to Osborne Brotbevs is great, nearly
their wliolestock being destroyed or rou-
dered worthless. They were insured for
$23,000. ~

Hardly hail the firemen reached their
headquarters after battling with the lum-
ber yard fire, before they were again
called out to subdue another incendiary tire
that was raging on Maple street in Green dc
Bet-he’s box factory. Here the fire gained
great headway before. the firemen arriVed.
and the factory was destroyed, as were also
a tenement house owned by George W
Barnum and Reid's machine shop.
honSes in the vicinity Were badly scorched,
but saved from utter destruction by the
be oic work of the firemen. The damage
I! this case is not definitely stated.

A. G. lsing, a jeweler and memberol'
Kolianza hose company had hisjaw broken
and a leg dislocated by the falling of a pile
ol lumber which comp'etely buried him, at
the Osborne fire.

Doubtless patent leather
shoes are worn because they’re
ready polished and one saves
in the cost of “shines” almost
the price of the shoes. But
patent leather wears badly;
that is, the enamel cracks, es-‘
pecially when cold. We sell
shoes of the best foreign pat-
cnt leather for $5. Nobody
guarantees patent leather. We
guarantee their sewing only.

In plain leather we handle
the best shoes that are made;
real French calfskin, $6.50;
American calfskin, $5.

_ Contrary to common opin-
ion, American calfskin is as
good as French except in two
respects; it does not keep its
softness quite so long, and it
docshot take quite so highs
polish. Only an expert in
leather can distinguish one

distinguishes them not by look
or feeling, but by smell. Every
one. at all familiar with the
trade must know what hap-
pens In such a' case. The bulk
of “French”. calfskin is growin
and tanned in this country. .

Few merchants have. the

pluck to call things by their-

true names ’with a popular
prejudice against them. We
hope we shall biz-pardoned for
hailing so few lines of French
calf shoes. ,

After all, shoemaking has
been brought to such perfec-
tion that we can sell for. $ 3 or
$4 a shoe good enough for al-
most any One.’

. HE PETITION of J. Belden Hurlbutt, of
~ -— the town ct Norwatk, County of Fairfield,
I in the State of Connecticut, for himself and in
l behalf of other rcsidenis‘in said town. res ect-
fully represents, that within the limits 0 the
town of Norwalk, there is now a municipal
corporation called the City of Eouth Norunlk. ii
municipal corporation called the Borough of
Norwalk. lying adjoining each other. a part of
the southerly line of the said Borough and the.
northerly line of said City. being one and the.
same line; that there is also a thickly settled
portion ol’ssid town called East Norwali., lying
adjoining the southerly tins of the Boron-{n ...
Norwala and the easterly line of the City of
South Norwalk, separated from South Nor-walk
by horwslk harbor. Another quite thickly
settled peril-u below bouth Not-Walk called
Five Mile hirer. Another in the Westerly
part of the town of Norwalk called West Nor-
walk ;s manufacturing hamlet in the northerly
part called Winnipauk. and another thickly
settled portion in the Illil'lheafllerly part called
Cranberry Plains ; that outside of the City 'of
South Normilk and the Borough of Norwak
the: e is uogovciument for any of these Ihic I)
settled portions except the government of tha
town of borwslk; that Not-walk, South Nor-
Walk and Winnipauti are connected by both
steam and horse railroads; that the converti-
ence and necessities of thee-e various commun-
ities, outside oi the Citv and Borough, require
many local improvements, which cannot be
bad under any existing law affecting towns;
that it is neCenary for the proper advancement
of the interests of these several portions oi the
town ; that some legislative authority be uiven
thorn, authorizing the making of such improve-
ments as their interests and necessities may rc-
quiire. and the levying of a taxior the pay ment
ot'the same; that further municipal govern-
ments in the town ot Norwalk would he
attended with large and unuecusary expense;
that the governmental expense of the town or
\orwalk, of the city of South Norwalk, the
Borough of \orwalk, and for the general man-
agement and c :uvenience which the interests
oi those other communities require, are, and
would be, unnecessarily burdensome; that for
the improvement or the other thickly settled
potions of the town of Norwalk; one City
government for the whole would obviate the
three or fourfold expense; thus saving to»
present expenses let in; upon the inhabitants,
and additional expenses upon others to u on.
they now hear; that the Borough of Norwalk
has large properti. I and considerable Ill-AUDI-
.«ulnesc incurred for local impioVemeuts; that
the City of'South .\orwalk has also large prop
erties and considerable indebtedness tor locai
improvements ; that a City Charter eml‘l‘llcl‘vl!
the entire -towu of Norwalk With suitable.
tliViBinlil of the town lufo Wards hailing
relation to the present municipal g-IVHt‘uluenlu
and the needs of the sound localities with
powers extended to the wards, authoriz on
