Every lover of the beautiful should call at Hanford’s Floral Hall and see the prettiest saga-palm in Connecticut. Its leaves are nearly opened and it is a “thing of beauty” for a fact. This morning Engineer Wood, with necessary assistants, went to Roton Point, where he proposes to lay out about a hundred acres of desirable ter- ritory into eligible building lots which will soon be thrown upon the market. Mr. Eversley H. Thomas of Phila- delphia, who was the guest of the Miss- es Bennett of East avenue yesterday, came to Norwalk to obtain certain gene- alogical data of the Eversley family. Next fall he will continue his research- es in Barbadoes and England. ! Master Willard Comstock after his phenomenal catch of flat fish, wound up the exploit, by blossoming out with measles. He has been a restive prison er in his darkened room for several days past, but is now out again enjoy- ing the bright Sunshine, the birds and flowers and his-bicycle. County Commissioner George M. Olmstead of New Canaan. who has been ill with the grip for a week, was able to be at his oflice yesterday. Monday, the Fairfield and New Haven county commissioners will determine upon a temporary bridge across the House.- tonic river at Shelton, while the new . bridge is being built. Carpenter “Al.” Malkin, found an old time br'oadax, between the outside clap-boards and the inside walls of the Curtis house which he is now recon- structing for Dr. Gregory. It proba- bly fell down into the space and was thus lost away back in the thirties when this house was built, and was new at the time. Handle and blade are as fresh. and bright to-day as a new one just out of the store. Messrs. Prowitt, Wilson and Kemp, the committee appointed by the bor- ough meeting to purchase 3,000 feet of hose for the fire department, met last evening, pursuant to notice, but, after extended discussion, no decision was ar- rived at, and it was decided to examine various samples of rubber hose before deciding upon a purchase. Several of our firemen have told the GAZETTE that the five hundred feet of carbolized rub- ber hose purchased by Mr. Franke some time ago, has stood all tests admirably, and that the hose-purchasing commit- tee might look into its merits with ad- vantage to the borough. The commit- tee will probably meet again next Tuesday evening. - Ex~Gov. Harris with his, two dau gh ters, Mrs. Kellogg and Miss Maude, ’ his two younger children, went to New York yesterday afternoon. They will i stay in the City until Saturday when they go to Chicago where Mr. Harris has in course of construction a suburb- an residence. They have lived in Norwalk but one year, yet in that time have made many warm friends. ' . Miss Maude, especially, by her frank, winning manner and charming person- ality has won a host of friends who are down-hearted at her leaving. That she held a warm place in many hearts was proved by the crowd in the depot to say a last farewell. It is currently reported that Freder- ick Belden has become overwhelmed with business troubles, and has been obliged to close up his busmess In New Orleans. The Fairfield County Sav- ings bank has filed a writ of attach- ment against his property on'the Green, for two unpaid notes amounting to $5,000. Several other parties In town hold his protested notes.—[Sent1nel. With the usual fatality attending much of the Sentinel’s local news, it has gotten the above badly mixed up. Some two weeks ago, 0.

Mr. Belden’s homestead by the Fair- field County National, not Savings bank. for the non-payment of two promissory notes it held, one for $2,000 “Belden Hat Co., limited,” and en- dorsed by Frederick Belden. We "made no reference to the matter, which could'on‘ly bean annoyance to his fam- ily and friends, as the statement was that Mr. Belden, who was ill in New Orleans, would adjust the matter on. his return home, which was expected as soon as he was able to travel. 1 Don’t Want a Doctor.

Sun. A Sad Appeal. A middle aged, healthy looking man, who had called at the postofi‘ice for a letter several days running, returned yesterday with the usual inquiry, and was answered as before: . “No letter for you.” “Are you quite sure?” he earnest] y asked. “Oh, yes.” “Alas! but I can’t make it out!” sighed the man. “I should have had one Monday, and this uncertainty unnerves me.” , “Expecting to hear from some of your friends?” queried the clerk, touched by his des ondcncy. “ es-my wife.” “Sheds away from home?” “Yes—in Buffalo.” “Any one ill?” “No, not exactly.” “But you were so anxious I thought it might be a case of life or dent .” “Itis, almost. You see, she cooks in a restaurant and sends me $5 per week to live on here, and this is the first time in six months I have missed a letter on Mon- day. I don’t know what to think. She may beill——she may be out of a. job—she may have gone back on me. I may even have to go to work again and earn my living!
