Mr. Wm. J. Finney, who for the best
part of: a half century has done the car-
penter work and repairing for the Un-
ion Co.’s Mills, had a very narrow es-
cape from instant- death there Tuesday.
He was at work just above one of the
big steam boilers and chanced to hit
the safety valve which flew out and a
stream of pent-up water flew up and del-
uged him. Had the water been boiling-
hot, as it usually is at that hour, it
would certainly have been “requiescat
in pacc,” for brother Finney. Fortu-
nately it was only tepid, which made
his drenching less uncomfortable.

LUIS.“ L IZZIE’S GOOD FORT LIVE.
In 1832 Mr. Joseph Osterbank, of
Winnipauk, visited the Home of the
Friendless in New YOrk city and saw a
bright, attractive little girl namedLiz~ .
zie Rink. He finally adopted her and
she has ever since been an inmate of his
family. She was left at the Home by
a lady who said that her name was Liz-
zie Rink. A short time ago Mr. Os-
terbank received notice that the right
name Of the girl was Lizzie Brookmul-
ler and that her grandmother had re-
cently died in Germany leaving Lizzie
as her only heir, a handsome legacy,
and that he must, as the child’s guar-
dian, appear before the German consul
in New York city, Wednesday, January
21, in order that her rights to the prop
erty may be substantiated." When Liz-
zie was placed in the Home 13 years
ago, she was five years of age, and suf-
fered from a deformity of the neck and
shoulders for which she was sent to an
institution for treatment which was en-
tirely successful. She has many friends
in this vicinity who will be glad to hear
of her good fortune. ‘
Judge James H. Taylor, of Danbury
who has been ill of consumption for

is to be filled by appointment by the
governor. The democratic registrar has
hastily notified Luzon B. Morris of
New Haven, the democratic claimant
of the governorship, and the republican
registrar, aware of the action Of' the
democratic registrar, has notified GOV-
ernor Bulkeley of the vacancy. This
is one Of the many complications sure to

BURNING OF THE LEXINGION
IN 1840.
Details of the Disaster as publ‘shed by (he
Gazette’s Special Correspondent o,"
._ , the spot.
Of the burning of the steamer Lex—
‘ ington, which occurred on the Sound,
011' Norwalk, on the evening of Jan. 13,
1840, the GAZETTE, of Jan. 22d, of that
man-contains a detailed account which,
summarized, is as follows: ,
The steamer left New York at 3 P. M ;
on the 13th, with about 150 passengers
on board, and a full freight, consisting
mostly of cotton. Fire was discovered
at about ’7 o’clock in the fines, near the
cotton. Much time was lost by the crew
in locating the source of danger. The
steamer was headed toward Long Island»
but the burning of her tiller-ropes ren.
dered the boat unmanaguble. and when
within two miles of the shore. the pas-
sengers and crew were compelled to
resort to the life-boats. which were no
sooner filled than the; were sunk by the
violent agitation of the. water, as caused
by the propelling wheel. F or some
reason unknown. the engine ceased its
motion. and all avenues of escape were
obstructed. excepting the last exigency
of escapingby means of bales of cotton.
Among the strugglers who embraced
this last Opportunity, were Capt. Hil-
liard. of the Ship Mississippi, ( a passen-
ger), and Pilot. Manchester.
‘jThc scene, as described by Captain
Hilliard wasawful. The fire having oc-
curred midway of the boat, all commu-
nication was cut off between the bow
and stern. The passengers crowded to-
gether at e1ther_end of the boat, moan-
mg and bewailing their. fate. till com-
pelled to cast themselves into the deep
to escape the flames.
“Public opinion censured the officers
of the boat for stowmg the cotton where
it was so liable to take fire. The rapid
progress of the flames made it 1111pOSSl-
'ble_ for the pilot to remain at the wheel,
which accounts for the fact- of the boat
not coming ashore.
. “ The number of lives lost, as pub-
lished in the GAZETTE of that date,
was one hundred and seven. Only four
were saved.“
The burning of the Lexmgton is
distinctly remembered by a number of
our Older residents, who give our re—
porter interesting detailed descriptions
of the scene as viewed by them from
Norwalk. From them we learn that
the conflagration illuminated the sky
for miles around. The burning vessel
was distinctly seen in Ridgefield. and
her reflection was seen not less than ten
miles north of there, and at the same
distance in every direction. , James
Mitchell, for instance, distinctly re-
members obs’erving the vessel as she
burned. and describes, in graphic
terms, the scene as he witnessed it:
“He saw bale after bale of burning
cotton thrown overboard, and passen-
gers by the dozen throw themselves
into the water only to meet a death as
certain .if less terrible than a death by
except for short intervals.

fire.” Mr. Mitchell describes the
scene as one of sublime, but awful
grandeur, and his description of it
would be not only interesting but in-
structive to all students of local his-
tory.”

self benefitted from first dose. She con-

The President Congratulated.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-—The Ohio year],
neeting of the religious Society of Friends

tions adopted by that body, in which they
express their high appreciation of the
president’s efforts in the direction Of set-
tling disputes by arbitration. They add:

Scotch Strikers Getting Violent.
LONDON, Jan. 1 7,—The Scotch strike has
reached a stage Of bitterness beyond which
it can scarcely go without producing gen-
eral mob violence. The strikers are grow-
ing desperate and are forsaking peaceful
methods. In a number of cases the rails
have been greased so that trains have
come too. standstill, thus adding to the
dangers of accident. The strikers or their
sympathizers have also inaugurated a.
wholesale system of bombardment with
stones, car and station windows being
smashed and the passengers exposed to
injury. It has been found necessary to
erect barricades over the engines for the
protection of the drivers and stokers, who
seem to be the special Objects of the at«
tacks. Everybody isdisgusted with the
condition of affairs, and the strikers are
wearing out ‘ the patience of the public.
The-authorities are in a. mood to deal
harshly with the disturbers of the peace,
and a. serious collision between the police
and the mob may be looked for unless the
disorderly feature of the strike is abated.
