3 cts. That Supper. [B3 our Special Correspondent.‘ J In response to the invitation issued by the invitation committee. as pub- lished in the DAILY GAZETTE on Tues- day, party of would- be lieutenant groomers gathered at Quintard’ s Hall last evening to elect a lieutenant of Company F, and devou1 four quarts of beans. While the partv put on all the gaiety possible yet sadness could be depicted upon every countenance, while now and then a tear drop would steal down the pallid cheek of the committeemen as they,, Crazed at one another and real- ized the fact that Reuben was not among them, and that they were with- out a chairman. Such questions as “Will he fail us? ” “Will Reuben pay the freight ? ” ‘ Do you think we are stuck?” flew thick and fast without an answering Reuben. Pulling themselves together by a gr eat effort, theyg orathered ’round their feast each making a heroic effort to swallow the lump in his throat before the beans went around. The pro- gramme was long and tedious owing to the fact that too many wanted to speak. A banjo duet by Miller & Partrick, a vocal duet by McMann .8: Noonan anda clog dance by Prof. Beecher, were well rendered, while the best part of the evening’s entertainment was the exhi- bition given by the ‘ Three Little Coons.’ , Speeches were made by But- tery, James and the four Honneckers, which were gems of oratory, especially that of George when he launched into politics and tariff. Poor Committeeman James made the only error of the evening. He had drawn himself to his full height and spouted, “Mr. Chairman: We promise our candidate, Smith, nigh onto forty votes.” when glancing at the head of the table for freight-paying Reuben’s approval, he met the intellectual coun- tenance of PowderlyBetts, (who wished the d—n DAILY GAZETTE would sink ,) smiling a rose- smile at him, which caused poor James to go off into a dead faint. But the greatest speech of the evening was made by the Hon. Frank- 1111 Dougherty Honnecker, who stated that he was ,not much on speech making, but a rattler Franky then related the following. dream. “One evening after being treated to several beers, I went to bed and dreamed that I was working in Norman Austin’s iron foundry. One day about 11 o’clock Mr. Austin 'came into the room and called out, ’Franky bring me one of those spiders.’ I im~ mediately left my work and going to the rear of the foundry I climbed upon a beam and crawled upon my stomach all over the rafters, but nowhere could I finda spider’s web. While thus en- gaged Mr. Austin came back and spy- ing me up on the rafters wanted to know what the deuce I was doingthere. ‘Looking for spiders as you told me, I answered.’ 'Come down you fool, I want one of those iron spiders the men are casting.’ To say that I was ashamed would not do justice to my feelings, in fact I was almost as asham- ed as I am to be here.” ' This dream “took the loaf" and the party broke into such a roar that our friends, the Odd Fellows, had to ad- j earn their meeting across the street on account of the yells and screams. Among the prominent people present werezi-Oliver Burton, Sergt. J Ohn Lat- son, Jr.,Samuel Bonner and reporter Thomas. ' ' r f AA; er Remembers the Christening-_ Few people who meet Norwalk’s like- ly and popular janitor, Mr. Charles P. Addison, are aware of the fact that when he was a young man, that is, a younger man than he is now, he was a member of the household ,, of the late Commodore Garner, whose yacht Mo- hawk was capsized ofi' Staten Island a few years ago. The family name .has been brought into prominence again of late by the marriage of Miss Florence to Sir William Gordon Cumming, of baccarat notoriety. Yesterday“ Mr. Addison saw a statement in- the New York Press in effect that Miss Florence as the oldest daughter of Commodore Garner. This is an error. There were 'our daughters. one of whom is dead, but no sons, and Miss Florence was the second daughter, Miss Leta being the oldest and Miss Adella the young- est. While serving as butler’s appren- tice in Commodore Garner’s household, (his chief duty being to look after the food for the children), Mr. Addison was an interested witness of the chris- tening of Miss Florence. AA— Vv . Benefit Concert. The NorwaI‘k'Lawn Tennis club have arranged an unusually brilliant and entertaining programme for their en- tertainment'at the Opera House to- night and certainly deserve, as they- no doubt Will have, a crowded audience. All the parties selected to participate in the entertainment are first class in their respective parts. Miss May Col- yer, of whom least is .known by Nor- walk audiences perhaps, is considered unrivaled in dialect characters. She recited recently for the American Le- gion of Honor, Associated Councils at Cooper Institute, before an audience of over three 'thodsand and was more enthusiastically encored than any of the others who took part in the enter- tainment. No amateur is rated as her superior in the characters she repre- ents. Our advice is to go early if you ant good seats. on dreams. . WEEKLY - NORWALK - GAZETTE. The London ’Bus Strike. . LONDON, June 12.-The strike of the em- ployee of the omnibus and road car com- panies of this city continues.‘ There is ap- parently no change in the situation. The road car company has announced that as its 'buses are not running it cannot afford to continue the payment of wages to the men who have. remained loyal to the com- pany. The latter consequently must now sufier with the strikers, while it is possi- ble, in addition, that the latter will refuse to allow them any share of tin moneythat the agentsof the strikers have been col looting in the public thoroughfares' 1n or der to enable the men to hold out agaiisi the companies. The road car company do- clares th‘atif i1: concededthedemands of its employes for higher wages it would be obliged to stop running its ’buses.
