THE TQM—MEL CASE.
Idle Gossip Made it Worse than
it Was.
His Prompt Return Expected.
The sensational stories so industri-
ously circulated, yesterday, in regard
to the “bad shape” of Mr. Anton Stom-
mell’s business affairs did violence to
the truth, as well as great injustice to a
man at least deserving of some sym-
pathy. As is well known, he has been
doing a business here far too large for
his limited capital. Friends had aided
him to the extent of endorsing his pa-
per, Mr. James L’Hommedieu being
the largest helper in this way.
Fifteen hundred dollars of this paper
was held and has been carried by the
> City Bank of South Norwalk. Sudden-
ly and without any adequate notice, it
is claimed, this bank ins1sted upon the
immediate and full payment of its loan.
This Stommel, of course, could not do.
but it so “rattled” and demoralized
him, that he yielded to a chronic weak-
ness, it is said, and began to resort to
stimulants to keep his courage up, and
between the worry of his tangled fin-
ances and his imbibing, he did the
most foolish of all things, cleared out.
As far as can be learned, $5,000 will
cover all his indebtedness, and (now
that the mischief has been done),
the City Bank is willing to carry his
notes along, as the responsibility of his
endorser is unquestioned. Other cred-
itors express the same willingness, and
one of his largest creditors now goes so
far as to offer to aid him still further
or to scale down the amount he owes
him. Stommell hada business which,
with half way decent management,
ought to have netted him $5,000 a year,
and every well-wisher of our local busi-
ness prosperity ought to feel an inter-
est in having it continued. The Cen-
tral National Bank put an attachment
on his goods as soon as it was known
that he had absented himself, not to
get ahead of other creditors, but to pre-
vent those having claims running off
with the property.
Another bit of unfounded gossip is
that Stommel got Glover & Olsen to
cash a check for him for a large amount
right before he left, knowing that there
were no funds in the Bank to meet it.
Cashier Curtis states that Stommel
borrowed the Glover .& Olsen check
about a week ago, giving his own to be
held for a few days in lieu of it. That
he soon thereafter deposited a check in
the Central bank for more than the
Glover & Olsen check and which he no
doubt, supposed was good. but it was
returned protested and in this way the
check given Glover & Olsen came to be
unpaid. Attorney Hurlbutt is confi-
dent that Mr. Stommel'will soon re-
turn and with the aid of faithful friends,
who still have confidence in him, be
able to straighten out his tangled af-
fairs and go on with his business.
THESE TALES 0F THE TOWN.
The Juvenile Lawn Fete and Barn
theatricals are to be repeated at five
o’clock this evening at the residence of
Hon. John S. Seymour.
Letter Carrier Nickerson has mus-
tred the courage to move back into his
Spring Hill residence to-morrow.
The City of Albany will give a spec-
ial outing excursion to the tired ones
~ who want to spend a quiet Sunday
aboard and beside the salt-sea beach,
and so will make a new landing, Beld-
cn Point near City Island, day after
to-morrow.
Oswald R. Smith’s face looked like an
over-ripe Georgia watermelon when
burst open from excess of growth. The
cause was the arrival of a new Spring
Hill resident at his house, weighing 8%
pounds. This makes the eloquent and
faithful Rev. Smith grand-pa again.
Will Editor Byington inform us if he
ever heard of anyone being taken com-
fortably ill. —Sentinol.
Why, yes indeed. Our hypercriti-
cal friend of the esteemed Sentinel is
betimes the most “comfortably ill”
natured chap on record. But cheer up,
“There’s always room at the top.”
We have been asked by several ag-
grieved parties to rebuke the wanton
and unpardonable liberty taken with
their own names and the names of de-
ceased members of their family, by the
idiotic Norwalk correspondent of the
New York World in its last Sunday’s
edition. But what is the use. A writer
er so coarse in his tastes and brutal in
his nature as to do such work, could
not be affected by anything that any-
body might say. Any reputable jour-
nal should Spurn from its columnssuch
coinage of base calumnies, as neither
_ smartfwitty or decent.
Swelled Head Shrunk.
From the Mechanic’s Journal, July 25.
At the borough meeting on Monday
night the question as to who is Warden
of the borough of N orwalk was definite-
ly settled and it appears that Burgess
O’Reilly isn’t in it. The traps of the
police department which Burgess
O’Reilly ordered to be transported to
difierent quarters, were ordered back,
4 to 1. Warden Keeler was declared
Warden 4 to 1. Burgess O’Reilly was
sat upon solidly, heavily and unequiv-
ocally 4 to 1.
Burgess O’Reilly has been a sore
disappointment to a great many of his
friends who believed in him and who
thought him the very man who could
break down whatever of prejudice of
race and religion still survived the lib-
eral Spirit Of the age in this communi-
ty. Mr. O’Reilly is a business man
of integrity, a good citizen and neigh—
bor, of fair intelligence and sufficient
education. But he suffers from a mala-
dy, that afflicts too many of those,
who, “clothed in a little brief authori-
ty,” think they know it all and can say
and do it all. He‘ forgets too frequent-
ly that while talking is silver, silence
is gold. In ancient mythology we read
of but one person upon whose shoulders
rested the whole world. His name
was Atlas, but it was not O’Reilly. If
the gentleman would only remember
this rather important fact, he would be
an ornament to his party, the town and
the honorable board of which the peo-
ple elected him a member. '
As it is, he has made rather a mess of
it. V The members of his own party
know it and democratic anathemas,
both loud and deep, accompanied the
mention of his name. If with Burgess
O’Reilly’s record in the board and the
Rice-Hanlon business, the republicans
can’t carry the next borough election
we shall be greatly surprised. In con-
clusion we give Mr. O’Reilly the bene-
fit of an old German saw, which, liber-
ally translated, reads like this :
“Fit your head to the world
‘For the world is too big
To fit to your head.”
It strikes us that Editor Ellendorf, in
the above, strikes a poor fellow “after
he is down.” It is well known, how-
ever, that there ever was and doubtless
ever will be, an “irrepressible conflict”
between the Tentou and the Celt, and
this may account for the above evident
challenge for a “scrap.” Burgess
O’Reilly always reads the GAZETTE, (as
everybody does,) and when his quick
eye catglies the above uncomplimen-
tary criticisms, dollars to dimes, he
will want to punish Ellendorf’s head,
and Ellendorf, in turn, would proceed
to “larrup” O’Reilly and then “music
by the full band.” It would be the old
story .of Pat and his missing whiskey
over again. “Begorra,” said Pat, tak-
ing out his bottle from its hiding place
and finding its contents gone, “I’ll
bate that dombed Dutchman, for he’s
drank all me whiskey -up! Well, I
dunno, I guess afther all, to tell the
truth, I drank it all up meself, but I’ll
hate the Dutchman just the same, for
I hate the Dutch.” O’Reilly will read
the Ellendorf assault over and solilo-
quize thusly: “Yes, I know its all true
what he says, but I’ll bate the editor
just the same,for he’s Dutch and I hate
the Dutchedomb um.”
The Elm Tree Pest.
The Editor of the GAZETTE some
days since wrote to the Agricultural
department at Washington in regard to
the Elm tree pests, which are making
such sad havoc with our favorite New
England shade trees. Yesterday we
published in the .DAILY GAZETTE Pro-
fessor Riley’s account of them and the
best method of destroying them. The
Department entomologist further gives
this cheering information that the eat-
ing of the leaves of the Elm trees, on
the grounds in Washington, do not
seem to affect the life of the trees. He
sends the following:
“Past history of the Elms in ques-
tion.——According to Mr. Willian Saund-
ers. of this Department, these trees
have been annually attacked by the
European Elm Leaf-beetle since they
were planted ten years ago, and about
one year in three the injury has been
severe, resulting in their defoliation,
while in other years, as in 1879 and 1880
there appeared comparatively none. In
some seasons a second or autumnal set
of leaves appeared after the trees had
been stripped, and in certain of these
instances the second crop of leaves be
came eaten; but in all cases he thinks
the lives of the trees have not seemed
to be endangered and they soon repair-
ed the damage done. His belief is also
that the pest did not become gradually
worse and worse through the Series of
years during which it has been observ-
ed by him, still he rcgards the attack
'of1882as worse than any known to
him before on these trees or others, and
he has noticed the effects of this insect-
since 1850, first in its earliest ravages
about Baltimore, and later elsewhere,”
A Generous’Glft.
Last evening Mr. O’Gorman, of the
Boston store, sent his check for $25 to
each of, the three . borough Fire com.-
panics, ‘as a recognltion of his sense of
gratitude for their prompt and effec-
tive services on the occasion of the re-
cent fire at his store.
NotaBigamist. ' I
Steeple Charlie and Mrs. Steeple
Charlie have started on a tour of the
leading newspaper offices of the state
with the intention of correcting the
false statements going the rounds of
the press, that Charlie was a bigamist.
It seems Charlie married Miss New-
house last fall and not a fortnight ago,
as sent out by a Willimantic corres-
pondent of a Hartford paper, and she
is his true and only wife.
The Iron Molders.
The clerk of the weather has arrang-
ed things admirably for the Iron Mold-
ers’ picnic to-morrow. The dust is all
laid and the lads and lasses can well
the floor in the mazy dance and keep
step to the soul-inspiring music with-
out being suffocated. While the eager
interest in who is to be the lucky win-
ner of the valuable gold watch, the
winner of the two beautiful ranges, dc,
will draw a crowd thither.
A Proposed New Paper.
We learn that our good Democratic
friends are already talking up the
scheme of starting an “organ” here this
fall so as to get well floated for the po-
litical campaign of ’92. We can give
them a pointer for a far less costly and
more effective plan than the attempt to
establish another democratic journal
here. Norwalkis noted as the grave-
yard of democratic newspapers, the
GAZETTE having administered on the
defunct estates of thirteen such wrecks
during its long career. Now let the
Democrats lease during the campaign
a column of the “hustling Daily,” and
let Burgess O’Reilly and Lawyer Walsh
edit it, with Senator Seymour as staff
contributor. Then the Republicans
would no doubt follow suit and take a
column in the Sentinel, the Prohibi-
tionists a column in the Mechanics’
Journal and the Mugwump contingent
a half column in the Hour, and then
there would be music by the full or-
chestra and Norwalk experience a gen-
uine awakening.

St. Paul’s New Churc—h.
We copy the following from the New-
'buryport Herald, which will be .of in-
terest to the many friends of the Rev.
W. C. Richardson in this town :
“The grpwth of the St. Paul’s church
since the Rev. \V. C.- Richardson as-
sumed the rectorship a year ago has
been so much a matter of public com-
ment that the recent developments
looking toward the building of a new
church, to house the rapidly growing
congregation, and of a building for the
parish societies also, have been ex-
pected as a matter of course.
On Sunday morning the rector ad-
dressed the congregation on the sub-
ject, briefly rehearsing the needs which
had become so apparent to all, stating
that the Parish Guild had petition-
ed the rector, wardens and vestry to
move in the matter of a new church,
and that, in regular meeting, the ves-
try had warmly commended and en-
dorsed the action of the Guild. It is
now quite evident that the entire con-
gregation from oldest to youngest is
aroused.
The movement is one of public con-
cern. It affects a large number of our
townspeople. The erection of the pro-
posed edifice will certainly be an event
in which all Newburyport people will
be intensely interested.
' ‘As an evidence of the interest spread-
ing already beyond the bounds of the
parish itself, we might instance the
fact that subscriptions have already
been offered the rector towards the
placing, of a set of chimes in the pro-
posed church. Singularly these sub-
scriptions all come from members of
other churches.
WEST PORT. .
Mr. Charles Elwood died at his home
on King street, on Sunday afternoon.
The deceased, who was nearly eighty
years old, had been in feeble health
for a long time,but had at the last been
confined but about a week. The funer-
al was attended from his late residence
on Wednesday afternoon, Rev. Mr.
Still assisted by Rev. J. E. Coley, offi-
ciated.
B. S. Lewis has sold out his market,
on Main street, to Michael Dunnigan.

Miss West, of Staten Island, is visit--
ing Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Tovey, of
Woodside avenue.
The congregation at Christ church
on Sunday was composed of entirely
different individuals than those who
have constituted it for some time. The
opponents of Mr. Hyde were present
while his friends were absent.
Mr. Louis Toquet is about to erect a
building on the lot east of the store oc-
cupied by William E. Osborne. The

“Bones” Smith and “Sampson” Fer-

They had been fishing but a short
time when the boat itself caught a crab
and overboard went Sampson. The
dog jumped after him. As the two were
about to get into tne boat again over-
board went Bones. After floundering
about in the water some time, the three
managed to get in the boat again and
succeeded in getting ashore as wet as
