Thursday continued.

As David Sloan, a batter residing in
Bethel, was stepping from the station
platform at South Norwalk, last night,
he was struck by a freight train on the
Housatonic road, due about 11 o ’,clock
receiving abad cut on the head, broken
ribs, and injuries of minor importance.
He was taken into the depot hospital
and Dr. Clark summoned, who dressed
his wounds and made the sufferer as
comfortable as possible. At 8 o’clock
this morning he was conscious and was
able to talk with relatives and friends,
who were untiring in their efforts for
his relief. Mr. Sloan had been in at.
tendance at the bean bake of Douglas
Fowler Pest and was on his way to the
home of his granddaughter, Mrs.
Joseph Brundage, of the borough. He
was employed at the hat manufactory
of Stevens, Dunning & Co. , Mr. Stev-
ens being his son- -in-law, and was a
commuter betw een here and Bethe].
He is about 73 years of age, a member
of James E. Moore Post, of Danbnry,
a pensioner, and well and favorably
known. It 18 thought that there is a

possibility of his recovery. He was
laken to the Danbnry hospital on the
9:18 train this morning.

 

The camp fire of Douglas Fowler
I‘ost, G. A. It, last evening. was large—
ly attended by members of the Post
and visiting veterans from other places.
Among the latter were Department
CommanderH. N. Fanton, his Chief of
Staff, Christopher Quin, and Police
Captain Bevens of New York. A large
delegation from Buckingham Post of
Norwalk, were also present, and all re-
ceivedavery fraternal welcome, em-
phasized by rounds of cheers, which
were returned with interest by the
comrades from Buckingham. Eloquent-
and able short addresses were made by
Commander Tuttle of Douglas Fowler,
Department Commander Fanton, Chief
of Staff Quin, and Commander Thomas
Bradley of Buckingham Post. The
Battle of “Pork and Beans was then

opened and Comrade Brad. Keith of
Buckingham was awarded the prize
spoon, (the bowl of which holds a pint
and just fits Adjutant Fred. Arnold’s
mouth,) for having demolished more
beans in five minutes than were ever
dreamed of in the philosophy of the
others present. The meeting was the

most successful of its kind ever held by = towar d pneumonia.

the Post, and one in which its mem-
bers may justly feel a pardonable pride
on account of the honor done the Post
by the presence of the distinguished

guests.

A letter received in South Norwalk
last evening says that on Tuesday of
last week while Mr. and Mrs. Aurelius
J. Meeker were at Ponce Park, Florida,
Mrs. Meeker was taken very ill with
neuralgia of the stomach, and no phy-
sician being located within fifteen or

twenty miles of the place. afriend who
fippened there at the time went by a
special steamer to Daytona for medical
aid. The physician drove swiftly down
the beach and reaching Ponce Park at
8: 30 that evening found the house, be-
ing directed by the groans of Mrs.
Meeker, whom he found suffering ter
ribly. The writer of the letter says:
“I went to the Park on Wednesday and
found her out of pain but dreadfully
weak from the effects of the great strain
on her nervous system.”

 

Last evening’s Sentinel we 5 in error
in saying that Mr. W. L. Bonnell. late
Superintendent of the Electric Light
Company, would leave town. Mr. Bon-

nell assures the DAILY GAZETTE that at‘

present. he has no intention of leaving
Norwalk.

The death of Maria, wife of Abram
Lewis, of Stratford, occurred suddenly
on Saturday night at the residence of

friends here.

The two years old child of the late
Mark McDonald, who was very low
with pneumonia when the father died.

bly bereft surviving parent will have
the heartfelt sympathy of the people
generally.

The latest addition to the horse rail- .

road equines is a dapple gray. and his
name is “DAILY GAZETTE.” It natur-
ally follows‘that he is a dandy* spright-
ly. handsome and full of the ‘get
there” principle. -

Brad. Keith carried off the honors
and the immense prize spoon at the
bean bake of Douglass Fowler Post
last evening, as the champion bean
eater. Who says that Brad. doesn’t

Chief DeForest and his associates
mrght take a thirty days vacation with-
out danger of recall, judging from the
apparent inactivity in immoral lines
which is becoming characteristic of
Norwalk.

The ushers of the Norwalk Opera
House are arranging for a benefit per-

the above occasion. "

The indicted New Haven Railroad

Yesterday afternoon Mr. T. S. Mori-
son had all that he cared to do while
exercising his horses tandem in Wall

direction. For a time it wasacontest of
brain against instinct, so to Speak. but
the former triumphed.

Coroner Doten, of Bridgeport, held
an inquest on the body of the Hungari—
an woman, whose death was caused,
yesterday, by the railroad accident in
the Housatonic yard._as given, in the
DAILY GAZETTE. He found that her
death was due to the criminal negli-
gence of Nicolas Sagrine. an Italian
switchman, employed by the above
road. He was arrested on a warrant
issued by the coroner and held for
trial.

Ben Allen’s bright little twin daugh-
ters, Ziola and Zuella, are the possess-
ors of a cunning little bantam hen that
persists in daily depositing its diminu-
tive egg in all sorts of places about the
house, at one time nesting on a bureau,
at another leaving an egg in a basket
of patchwork ! But the cutest of all was
when the chickabiddy gained access to
the pantry and left an egg in the fry-
ing pan, which would seem to indicate
that the little hen'wanted “a place for
everything, and everything in itSplace. ”

The precocious urchins who hang
around the entrance of the Opera
House. trying to beg their fare in, are
a pretty “fly” set, and at the same time
an abominable nuisance. Last evening,
however, five of them nearly succeeded

’in putting up a neat little job so as to

gain entrance without paying. ‘They
succeeded in Opening the door in the
rear of the Opera House, and then
made a rush to get in. Before they
were safely on the inside, however, one
of the ushers and the manager got onto
them and ejected three of the young
rascals in a hurry. The other two en-
joyed a fine programme withhut paying
anything for the'pleasure.

Music Hall was packed to suffocation
by the elite of Norwalk last evening,
the occasion being the presentation of
“An Eventful Day on 001. St. Clair’s
Plantation,” by members and friends
of Old Well Hook and Ladder Compa-l
ny. The musical portion, and especial-C
ly the minstrel show were highly ap-
preciated. In the musical. the solo of
Mrs. Newkirk was finely rendered,
while in the minstrels it must be said
that the two “Eds,”'Hyde and Smith,
bones and tambo, carried off the hon-

the rendition of “Home, Sweet Home,”
by Miss Lizzie Murphy. Taken all in
all the entertainment was a social as
well as a financial success.

 

Wednesday the celebration exercises
of the American Patent System were
inaugurated at Lincoln Hall. Presi-
dent Harrison presided and Patent
Commissioner Mitchell and Senator O.
H. Platt and others addressed the as-
semblage of Inventors and Patent men.
The speeches of our Senator and the
Commissioner were the two best deliv-
ered by universal admission. Inthe eve-
ning a public reception was given in the
Patent office corridors by Secretary
Noble and Commissioner Mitchell and
their wives and thousands of men and
women packed into the building to pay
their respects to the chief and see one
another.

On Tuesday as the steam barge “Den-
nis Valentine ” loaded with pipe for the
South Norwalk water works was com-
ing through hell gate, a portion of her
machinery broke down, leaving the
boat in a dangerous position. Her
whistle for help was answered by a
passing tug, which towed her into
Whitestone for repairs. When the nec-
essary repairs had been completed the
Valentine, without the knowledge of
the tug owners, steamed away for this
place, where she arrived yesterday,and
unloaded a portion of her cargo of 16-
inch pipe for the South Norwalk water
works, at the propeller dock. As soon
as it was learned that the Valentine had
departed, and her destination ascer-
tained, the tug owners placed their
claim for salvage in the hands of their
attorney Mr. Arthur Shipman, of Hart-
ford. 'who immediately despatched U.
S. Deputy Marshal A. P. Moore to Nor-
walk to attach the pipe. Mr. Moore ar-
rived here last evening and finding the
pipe, attached it pending suit of the
tug oWners for salvage.

This morning .Ofiicer Gormley was
notified of the discovery of the dead
body of a man close to the fence en-
closing the lot, on the Westport road,
nearly opposite the residence of Mrs.
George Low. and proceeding thither
with Medical Examiner Burke found

the body where it had been seen by.

school children. It was identified as
that of Charlie Allen. an elderly man
residin r in Saugatuck but well known
in Norwalk and elsewhere throughout
this section. \Vhen found his clothing
was disarranged, but there were no
marks of violence upon his person

had been a sufi'erer from hernia, and
the supposition is that his death was
directly attributable to that trouble.

Yesterday afternoon, about 4 o’clock,
he was seen in a reclining posture,where
he was found this morning, by several
who supposed he was asleep. It is
probable, therefore, that he was dead
at that time. The body was taken to
Kavanaugh’s undertaking rooms where
it will be prepared for burial and the
formal inquest held. The finding will
undoubtedly be “death from natural
causes." .

On the person of the dead man was
found thirty-five dollars in money, a
quit claim deed and some probate
papers.

Mr. George Pomeroy and Miss ".L,iz-'\
zie Casey, of the Allen House on Chap-
e1 street, were married at St. Mary’s
church, last evening,
being tied by Rev. Father O’Brien.
The bride was attired in a traveling
costume of Henrietta and Miss Mamie
Toohill acted as bridesmaid. ' ThehOn-
eymoon will include a trip to Washing-
ton and other points of interest. ‘ As
shon' as Hymen let the secret out that

of affairs, the boys got together and

ized a gutter band, which included in-
struments of every shape and descrip-
tion. They then proceeded to where

started a good old-fashidned calithum-
pian serenade, which included the
clash and the clatter of pans, and they
tooted their horns if they didn’t sel
any clams. After the serenade "the
crowd dispersed, wishing George and
his bride long life, health and happi-
ness.

This morning Chapel street contains
a car load of tin cans, pans, pails and
every description of tm were left by
the serenaders.
