Mr. Horace Staples celebrated his
88th birth day at the Staples High
School Saturday. A sumptuous dinner
was served some hundred or more
guests and a varied programme of liter—
ary, musical and scholastic exercises
was presented to a large and well pleas-
ed audience of ladies and gentlemen
from Westport and the adjacent towns.
The venerable founder of the academy
was in the best of health and spirits on
his entrance upon his 90th year.
An opening hymn, “Come Thou Al-
mighty King,” was sung when Rev.
Henry Davies of the Greens Farms
Congregational church, delivered an
address of congratulation to Mr. Staples
and of welcome to those who had as-
sembled to do honor to the aged bene-
factor of his town. To this, Mr. Sta-
ples responded as follows:
MY DEAR FELLow CITIZENS :——Through
Divine goodness, we are permitted to
meet the seventh time, on what you
are pleased to call“Founder’s Day.”
I cannot-express to you the satisfaction
it gives to see you on this occasion.
‘We are all interested in educating the
rising generation. It is the ground-
work or chief corner-stone of every
good thing. Then how can we but re-
30ice to meet this beloved audience.
Eighty-six years ago, Hon. Samuel
B. Sherwood, Ebenezer J esup and
other citizens of Greens Farms and
Saugatuck, formed a stock company
and built an academy called Middleport
Academy. It was made up of 36 shares,
at $25.00 per share, amounting to $900.—
00. \Vas located on the ground where
the Saugatuck Congregational church
now stands. Mr. Bissell and other
graduates, and Miss Eunice Seeley.
were teachers.
retary of our Navy, I think was the
last college graduate, before Mr. Beach
Star, of Bedding, was principal.
About 1830, the house was set back,
to give room for the first Congregation-
al meeting-house our village ever had.
In 1832, Miss Leavenworth took the
upper room and kept it 44 years, the
lower room being the district school.
I cannot say the name of Middleport
Academy was kept up after Mr. Toucey
left, or that we had in the town an
academy, until the Greens Farms Acad-
emy was built, and conducted under
Mr. Ebenezer Adams as principal. Mr.
Adams, by great economy, and inde-
fatigable labor, made it self-supporting
for many years, until his health failed.
All the best portion of the middle-aged
men of Greens Farms and Westport
village, owe to Mr. Ebenezer Adams
due gratitude for the most useful part
of their education, and no other man
has ever succeeded in conducting a
high school, to make it self-sustaining,
in this vicinity for as many years.
Mr. Wllliam H. Richards for a few
years was a popular teacher, but the
work was too laborious for giving a,
comfortable support.
The Messrs. Uownes have, with un-
precedented labor, keptaprivate school
and deserve great commendation.
Our High School has, for its six
years’ existence, been only half self-
supporting, without having aided in
providing its Library and Laboratory.
The Middleport Academy always had
their share of the free money. That
favor has never been extended to our
High School. Our school very much
needs 2,000 more volumes to its Li-
brary, and is constantly in Want of
some additional fixtures. The house.
and all its attachments and ground,
belong to the Town of Westport, and
the Town is entitled to a voice in the
support of the school, in proportion to
any aid it may render, and will ever
have that right. Owing to my age, I
make these remarks, hoping the Town
will see the propriety of taking an in-
terest in domg everything possible to
keep the school up to the very highest
standard.
Although it has only been in exist-
ence a little over six years, we have the
great gratification of knowing that
several of its graduates are eminent as
teachers, and are becoming our most
useful and popular workers.
Let me entreat every citizen of this
town, and also every good disposed
person that ever felt an interest in do-
ing good, to aid in raising the standard
of education. No earthly thing has
ever given me the comfort and enjoy-
ment I have in viewing the progress of
this school.
Saugatuck river was honored with a
ferry called Disbrough’s Ferry, at the
narrows where our railroad now cross-
es, at Ferry Lane, 140 years ago.
Rates of, ferriage were fixed by the
court, which then acted as legislature.
The rates were for man horse and load,
2 pence halfpenny; a led horse, one
penny, footman helping; ox or other
neat cattle, 3 pence haltpenny; sheep,
hog or goat, one farthing halfpenny.
All mail matter was ferried across there
between Boston and New York, and
carried on horse-back, where now
thousands of passengers pass and re-
pass daily on one of the greatest rail—
roads in the world, and this is within
:f ofamile of where we meet to-day.
What can be expected from our rising
generation for 140 years to come? Let
the old, the middle-aged, and therising
generation, all unite in raising the stan-
dard of education, in doing good, and
upon the principle that the greatest
thing in the world is to love our Father
in Heaven, and to ever be united in do-
ing good.
My dear friends, the pleasure it gives
me in meeting you on this occasion to-
day, is inexpressable, and I can only
hope you will all accept my best wishes
for yourselves and this institution.
Gen. Couch followed in an eloquent
tribute to Mr. Staples and the rich
legacy he had already bequeathed to
the children of Westport. Other
speakers succeeded Gen. Couch, when
the exercises closed by singing the
Doxology.

$40,000 for the Presbyterian Ilmpitm’.
The Rev. Dr. John R. Paxton of the
West Presbyterian Church, announced,
Sunday, that $40,000 had been raised
by the congregation for the rebuilding
of .the Presbyterian Hospital. Some
weeks ago a member of the congrega-
tion, who desires his name withheld;
offered to contribute $20,000 if $20,000
more should be raised by the congre-
gation. The desired amount was
raised and now the $40,000 is ready to
be turned over to the hospital. '

FIRE 1N EAST NOR "211.112
Monday evening, about 8 o’clock, the
people living in the borough, were
startled by the deep tones of the fire
bell sounding box 15. The fire depart-
ment responded promptly and discov-
ered that the fire was located outside
of the borough limits. Those who
crossed the borough line and went to
the scene found the old barn, belong-
ing to the estate of the late Giles Saun-
ders located on what is known as Straw-
berry Hill, iii a mass of flames. The
barn contained two horses, four sets of
harness, two buggies and a quantity of
hay and feed. The neighbors succeed-
ed, by their promptness, in saving
Fred. Saunders’ horse, one set of har—
ness and the two buggies. There were
two horses in the barn, one upstairs
and one down, the one down stairs be-
ing rescued while the ' other, the most
The
poor horse, which was burned, was well
known hereabouts, and was the buck-
skin pacer formerly owned by Glover
8: Olsen and raised by the late \Villiam
E. Quintard, and was the property of
Elsworth Saunders. -
Those who discovered the fire say it
started in the southeast corner, and it
was only a few moments before the
flames had completely surrounded the
whole structure, and was, without
doubt, of incendiary origin. May-
flower Hook & Ladder Company from
East Norwalk was promptly on hand
and did valiant service in tearing down
the burning pile. I
The horse was insured for 3300
through the agency of O. E. \Vilson.
A suspicion was at once widely ex-
pressed that some miscreant had fired
the barn in order to break up the con-
solidation meeting being held at the
East Norwalk Volunteer Hose House.
Another suspicious circumstance is
that the same tramp, who was arrested
for setting fire to the residence of Hon.
J. W. Hyatt, and who was in our lock-
up the same night the Henry Kellogg
barn was burned. was here again last
night. It is a singular coincidence in
the mind of Count Gehebe that every
night that this particular tramp has
been a guest at his hotel there has been
a fire in town.

STOLEN HORSE RECO VEREI).
On Sunday afternoon a brisk young
fellow name John McNamara, claim-
ing to be a traveling agent, hired a
horse and buggy at Driscoll’s livery
stable in Westport for a short drive, en-
gaging to return at 6 o’clock that even-
ing. As he failed to show up at the
time appointed, Driscoll became sus-
picious, and after waiting a reasonable
time, hitched up and drove to Norwalk
whence he sent telephone messages . in
various directions, giving a description
of the turnout and the supposed thief.
Meantime, on Sunday morning a brisk
young man, with a livery rig, drove up
to David J enks’ place on Belden Hill
and tried to sell the rig for 385. J enks,
suspecting crookedness, parleyed with
him for a time and finally agreed to
purchase the outfit and to meet the
young man at the South Norwalk depot
this morning at the 10.10 train and pay
over the money. Accordingly the
turnout was placed in J enks’ barn and
the young man departed. Last evening
J enks came to the Norwalk central
telephone office for the purpose of
communicating with a man in Mianus,
from whom he had learned a horse had
been stolen. George Mosher, of the
GAZETTE composing rooms, who chanc-
ed to be in the telephone office at the
time, on learning the nature of Mr.
J enks’ message, at once concluded the
horse in J enks’ possession was the one
stolen from Driscoll, and so informed
J enks, who promptly gotinto his buggy
with Mosher and drove to . Westport.
The descriptions given convinced Mr.
Driscoll, and he sent a man to Belden
Hill with the others to identify his
property. which, as expected, proved
to be Driscoll‘s. It was then arranged
that when McNamara should arrive at
the depot this forenoon to get his $85,
he would be met by a reception com-
mittee on whom he had not counted.
For the best of reason, however, the
expected guest did not put in his ap-
pearance at the appointed time. He
couldn’t. He was fast in the relent-
less clutches of Capt. Keating, of the
Danbury police, who nabbed him at
the Catholic fair in Bethel Monday
night.

in fact the water pressure is steadily

secured a small steam engine, but that

is not in human strength to drive our

are unavoidably late, and this was
mortifyingly the case on Saturday in

From a Small to.“ Tramp Beggar.
Danbury, Conn., Feb. 3. —D£ niel J.
Brew, a well-known hat manufacturer
of this city. who has been missing since
December 6, is a tramp in some of the
“7estern States where he is trying to
make his way from Texas, where he
was shipped in a freight car after being
assaulted and robbed of money and
clothes on a New York city street.
a prosperous business in Hawleyville,
where he was the owner of a large fac-
tory. It was his custom to go to New
York city every other Saturday, collect
the money due him from jobbers in the
city and return to Danbury to payoff
his employes in the afternoon. He left
his home at No. 71. Franklin street,
early in the morning of December 6,
and took an express train for New
York. He was to go to see one of his
customers, L. Cowan, at No. 127 Greene
street, where $300 was due him for
a shipment of hats the day before, and
he intended to catch the 2 o’clock train
back to Hawleyville. That was the last
seen of him in Danbury, and nothing
was heard from him until the following
Wednesday, when it was learned that
a strange woman had asked the New
York police to send outa general alarm
for him. Brew’s friends then caused a
vigorous search to be instituted, land
all the hatting districts in the country
were thoroughly searched. Brew was
a strong temperance advocate and was
never known to touch liquor ortobacco,
and after a month passed his relatives,
believing that he had met with foul
play, settled up his business and‘paid
his indebtedness.
To-day a letter was received from
Brew dated at a small town in the
Southwest, where he was at work in a
coal yard. He tells a startling story of
abduction and robbery in New York,
and of the privation that followed.
When he reached New York on De-
cember 6 he went directly to Greene
street, where he received a check for
$250. He hurried to the People‘s bank,
in Canal street, where it was cashed.
Then he started up town. He remem-
bers placing the money in his pocket
and leaving the bank. HI, w far he was
from Canal street, he does not know,
when there was a rush and a blow upon
the head, and all became a blank.
How long he remained unconscious he
does not know, but he was awakened by
a fall from what appeared to him to be
a tremendous height. The height
proved to be a box of merchandise in a
freight car. He was dressed in old
water-soaked clothes, and his own good
garments, his money, watch and jewel-
ry were gone. He tried to attract the
attention of the trainmen again and
again. He was faint from hunger and
thirst, and finally became too W¢flli to
cry out. Then he became un-
concious again, and when he came to
his senses he was in ahouse in Houston,
Texas, where the people said he had
been in a car ten days, without food or
water. The people there thought him
a tramp, and as soon as he regained his
strength they sent him away. He
earned a few dimes shovelling coal,
until one day about three weeks ago he
was shot by a negro, who took him for
a tramp. Since then he has been trying
to make his way north.

A, B RAKERLLV KILLED.
George Clark, head brakeman on
Conductor Beeman’s mixed train on the
D. St N. division, was killed Monday
morning in a frightful manner. The
train was approaching South Wilton on
its downward trip, and Clark, who was
sitting on the forward end of the roof
of a high stock car, failed to stoop suf-
ficiently to clear the small, foot bridge
that crosses above the track a few hun-
dred yards above the South Wilton
station. He was struck on the fore-
head, presumably by a bolt on the un-
der side of the bridge as the train went
under, and was knocked over on his
back on the car roof, where he lay un-
til the South Wilton depot was reached,
when his accident was first made known
to the rest of the train hands. He was
taken off the train at South \Vilton
and, although gasping faintly at the
time, all signs of ,life were gone almost
before a doctor from Monroe could be
telegraphed for. There was a horrible
wound in his head, where the bolt
crushed it in, and his brains oozed out.
On the roof of the car was a pool of
blood, and blood trickled down the side
of the car, a sickening sight. Clark
was a recent acquisition to the train
service, and was a young man about 30
years of age and belonged in Danbury.
This is only one of a series of similar
accidents that have occurred at this
same bridge within the memory of
many of the residents in the neighbor-
hood. .
The remains were taken from Wilton
to the home of deceased in Danbury
on the noon train, in charge of Medical
Examiner Burke.

RECOVERED HER CH1 LD.
A peculiar case in which a mother V
sought to recover possession of her
child was brought to light last Friday,
when DeputySherifi' Leonard visited
the house of W. T. Peat on Fairfield
avenue, and secured the little girl.
Some time ago Mrs. Dailey, a worthy
woman, who was then out of employ-
ment, gave her child into the custody
of \V. T. Peat’s family in Norwalk, an
agreement between the parties being
drawn by Attorney Gray. Mrs. Dailey
came to this city and obtained employ-
ment as a servant in Mrs. P. C. Cal-
houn’s family. She had not seen her
four years old daughter, Flossie, for
many weeks, until a few days ago, she
saw the child on the street.
Mrs. Dailey, having a motherly af-
fection for her offspring, was desirous
of regaining the little one, and she im-
mediately took steps to ascertain where
the Peat family lived. She soon learn-
ed that they had moved to this city,
and that they were residing on Fair-
field avenue. Wishing to rightfully
secure the custody of the child, she
consulted Attorneys DeForest & Klein,
and after inquiring into the facts the
lawyers concluded that the papers
drawn by the Norwalk lawyer were not
binding. Accordingly, Deputy Sheriff
Leonard, accompanied by Mrs. Dailey,
visited Mr. Peat’s residence yesterday,
and when they departed the child went
with them.
Mr. Peat was formerly a restaurant
keeper in Norwalk and has only lived
here a short time. Mrs. Dailey is a
woman of Scotch descent. There is a
possibility that legal action will be
taken by the familyto obtain the child
again—{Bridgeport Standard.
THE PARALLEL AGAIN.
The newly organized company which
has succeeded to the franchises of the
old Parallel, in compliance with the law
in such cases made and provided, has
diligently striven to arrange satisfac-
tory conditions with the Consolidated
road for the right to cross their tracks
on the line of their surveys, above and
below grade, but up to date have utter.
ly failed to negotiate any terms with
the Consolidated upon which the new
line could possibly be constructed. It
is, they say, the old dog in the manger
policy of the Consolidated to prevent
the building of any railroad which
should in anywise prove a competition
for their enormous monopoly business.
The next step to be taken, is to appeal
to the state board of Railroad Commis-
sioners for them to determine as be-
tween the contestantants, where and
how and in what' manner these neces-
sary crossings shall-be made. No other
company, corporation or individual
has interposed any objections to the
buildingoftheir new road north and in-
dependent of the Consolidated line.
It is the old, old story over again.
The Consolidated is not going to permit
the construction of any railroad, how-
ever much needed or desired by the
people of Connecticut, but the new
company means business and a lively
tussle is in prospect.
DIED.
C. L. English, a brother of the late
James E. English, died at 'New Haven,
Tuesday. He has been a member of
the Legislature, a vice-president of the
Derby R. R. of the Yale Bank, and one
of the founders of Republicanism in
Connecticut. He had several times
been the nominee for the State Senat-
orship, and was nominated and receiv-
ed the full party vote for Lieutenant-
Governor-in 1874.
