“It makes me tired!
People ask me—is marriage a fail-
ure? Of course ’t’aint; s’pose I

keep healthy they keep in good
spirits and cupid is in demand. Let
every enfeebled woman know this
—-there’s a remedy that’ll cure her,
the proofs positive.

Here’s the proof—if it doesn’t do
you good within reasonable time,
report the fact to its makers and
get your money back without a

The remedy is Dr. Pierce’s Favor-

James Russell Lowell. '
Dead in his stately prime !' He wins his rest
Right royally, his labors being great.
The world will show him honor, and renown
Shall twine the fadeless wreath above his

. brows.
Sure is his welcome in the mystic land;
Sage Emerson will greet him; calmly glad
Because a kinsmau comes; and he shall mark
Where Bryant walks the asphodelian fields
Seeking a heavenly mate for that earth flower,
The G‘entian, whereof once he fitly sung.
Another friend, whose name the nations speak
With equal love and reverence. and whose
song
Is clear as any birds the Spring-time knows.
Longfellow. too. shall haste to make him feel
The bliss of brotherly reunion there.
Nor these alone,—but others of the race,
The elder bards, poets of alien tongues
(Living in common at thecourt of heaven)
Shall one and all give greeting as is meet
Whenever that most august company
Admits a peer. And so he takes his place,
Nor seems unwonted to supernal ways.

~Bakery Nearly Burned.
Atherton’s bakery, South Norwalk,
had a narrow escape from being burned
up Tuesday night. About 12 o’clock as

"Boston Brown” from the oven, 9. gas
pipe, directly over his head, burst and
the escaping gas communicated with a
burning jet, throwing a flame up
through the iron grating in front of the
store. Smith was knocked over, but
escaped injury. The police were “on
to it” and succeeded in shutting off the
gas before the flames had done much
damage. A plumber was secured and
the burst was repaired and work re-
sumed. It was a close call for a disas-
trous fire.
His Axle Broke.

As builder Kemp was driving home
Tuesday night from the Comstock villa
on St. John Place, which he is now com-
pleting, when opposite the Capt. Lamb
place on Main street. his forward axle
broke square off at the wheel hub and
the sudden drop pitched him out ' into
the muddy road. He was helped up and
onto the sidewalk and then home, he
having been badly jolted and somewhat
bruised on his hip by the mishap. His
horse being gentle, made no effort to
get away. and so all serious harm was
averted.

Forgot the Boy.

George Bunt, an eccentric farmer of
North Lyne, while heading a barrel on
Saturday, placed his young deaf and
dumb son inside to hold the head while
he tightened the hoops. Bunt com-
pleted his work and fergot all about
the boy in the barrel.

The little chap remained there until
Sunday, almost twenty—four hours. He
went into Wednviilsipns‘ when rescued
and it is feared he willidie.‘ Bunt has
been arrested. ‘

Rather Sharp.

When the borough gave the city a
permit to lay their water mains through
Stewart avenue, it restricted the city
from tapping the mains to supply
water to customers/ Acting Warden
Bowe hearing that the contract had
been violated, looked the matter up
and learned that the pipes had been
tapped and demanded that the taps be
plugged, and the city live up to its part
of the contract.

 

More Snakes.

Jerry Canfield, of Hamburg, an em-
ploye of a saw mill, says that a black
snake eleven feet long and whose body
was as thick as a man’s wrist, was cut
in two by him and that then one part
coiled itself around his legs, binding
them together and rendering him help-
less, so that he fell against machinery
and had both legs broken.

Horse Stolen.

The police have been notified to’ look
out for a man named James MeCune,
who hired a horse of Liveryman Tuttle
of Bridgeport, Tuesday, and failed to
return.

The proprietors of Ely’s Cream~ Balm
do not claim it to be a cure-all, but a
remedy for catarrh, colds in the head
and hay fever. , It is not a liquid or a

It gives relief at once. 500.

Funeral of F. W. Trippe.

The funeral of Ferdinand W. Trippe,
one of the victims of last Saturday’s
lamentable Park Place tragedy was,
yesterday afternoon, attended in New
York city, and his surviving partner,
Mrs. Mary White Trippe, has in her
great bereavement, the serious and sin-
cere sympathy of many in this’commu-
nity, who remember herself and her
father’s family with true regard.

Mrs. Trippe is the youngest daugh-
ter of the late Charles B. White of
East avenue, a man of generous and
honorable principles, who directed his
wealth to the improvement of his hand-
some Norwalk property, and whose en-
terprising spirit, genuine integrity, and
universal demeanor of a thorough gen-
tleman endeared him to all classes. His
excellent son-in-law is mourned not
alone by a devoted wife and children,

. but by an aged father and mother also,

the heads of a highly estimable old
Newark family.

 

So. Norwalk Tennis Club.

A lawn tennis club was organized in
South Norwalk Wednesday evening and
constitution and by-laws adopted. It
is oflicered as follows: Dr. Sanford,
president; Joseph Jennings, vice pres-
ident; R. McDonald, secretary; Leslie
Smith, treasurer ; Thos. Cavanagh,
Reed Flynn and Oscar Banks, execu-
tive committee; E. H. Mathewson, W.
W. Lester and J. E. Light, committee
on membership. It was voted to admit
lady associate members free of all
dues. The club has excellent grounds
on Franklin street, and the Borough
players will, no doubt, soon be invited
to have a “racket” .thereon. As will
be seen the club is well ofiicered and it
will not be their fault if it does not
count success. '

Funeral of Editor Scanian.

The funeral of the late John E. Scan-
lan took place at Hartford Wednesday
morning. After a brief and largely at-
tended service at the house at 9 o’clock,
the body was carried by the bearers to
St. Patrick’s church, where the solemn
high mass was celebrated by the Very
Rev. James Hughes, V. G., assisted by

Fathers Dullard and McGurk.
The ' church was packed. Not
only were the numerous friends
of the late Mr. Scanlan living

in Hartford present, but early morn-_
ing trains brought in many from all
parts of the state.

The Maliey Suit Settled.

The $25,000 suit brought against Ed-
ward Malley, of New Haven, by Mrs.
Marie Reinhart, of New York,has been
settled.

Mrs. Reinhart was governess in the
family of Mr. Malley for two years.
She alleged in the suit a breach of
promise and also that she had been
wronged under a promise of marriage.
Her child, she further claimed, was
born in New York, and that it was
christened Ed ward Malley. The child
is dead. .

Just what the terms of settlement
are cannot be learned, as those who
know the facts in the settlement posi-
tively decline to make any statement.
Married for One Dollar and ayTw'o

Cent Stamp.

Justice Hendrickson, of Jamaica, L.
I. , married,Wednesday, Andrew Reusch
and Miss Clara Schmidt. The bride is
the young woman who was dragged
into the woods at Queens three years

ago by Thomas Reaves, alias “Two .

Fingered J ack,” for which he is now
serving a five years’ term in the States
Prison. The groom handed the jus-
tice a sealed envelope, upon opening
which the latter found a one dollar bi
and a two cent postage stamp.

‘I‘rno Independence.

The stock farmer has the most inde-
pendent life in the world, says The West-
ern Agriculturist. His stock and grass
grows day and night, min or shine, with-
out a host of hands to feed and pay off.
He is more independent of the bad sea-
sons than the grain grower, who loses a
crop when the season is bad. True,
there is nothing now to brag of in prices
of stock, but still it is better than any
other business on the farm, and if we
have high grade stock we get the top of
the markets that pay well even in these
times. ‘

The Woolly West;

The Big Timber Pioneer takes pride
in recounting the following facts to the
credit‘of its townandcounty in general:
One million six hundred thousand pounds
of wool shipped from Big Timber the
past season, valuedat 180ents per pound;
23,000 mutton sheep shipped, valued at
$3.10 per head; 10,000 stock‘sheep sold to
Dakota parties at an average of $2.50
per head; nine cars of cattle shipped at a.
value of $35 per head—Montana Live
Stock Journal.

Points of Interest.
This fact stands out in the midst of
the disastrous experience of numerous
sheep raisers in the past half dozen

. years: The price of wool has been like

the Indian’s description of the white
man, “mighty onsartain,” but more and
more mutton has been consumed every
year. The inhabitants of the United
States are becoming a sheep eating peo~
ple, and you can depend on that. When
wool does not pay, therefore, you can be
sure that good fat mutton always will.

A True Son ambulist.

Henry Wagner, of Bridgeport, a ton-
sorial artist, who worked at Camp Wat-
son last week. arrived home about six
o’clock Saturday night, and being tired
after his week’s work, he retired early
and was soon sound asleep. During
the early morning hours of Sunday
he got up in his sleep, and, like a true
sonambulist, walked through an open
window. He struck on his head and
ri ht hand. _ ' .

The fall did not disturb his sleep and
one of the barbers missed him from the
room, and on making a search found
him lying on the ground. With the
assistance of another barber they man-
aged to get him to his room where he
lay in a profound stupor. Henry when
he awoke Sunda , thought, owing to
the pains which s ot through his body,
that he had contracted rheumatism at
camp. He was informed of his «lofty
tumble but he claims no know ledge of
it.

The same evening medical'attendance
was summoned and it was learned, on
examination, that Henry had sustained
a broken wrist, several bodily bruises
andka severeistrain of the cords of his
nec . '

Slept at His Post.

Michael Sullivan, brakeman on the
night freight, New York and New :Eng-
land Railroad, was run over and horri-
bly mutilated near the Sandy Hook
station about 11.15 p. m. on Saturday.

He was sent back to flag another
train. It was his first trip over the
road, and he mistook the track on
which the train was to pass. He sat
down on the rail to wait, fell asleep and
ten or twelve cars ran over him, nearly
severing onearm andone leg and mang-
ling his body. He was conscious when
taken up and lived long enough to tell
how it happened. He was a strong,
well-built fellow, about 23 years old,
and leaves a wife and one child, who
are in Philadelphia.

It is said that he had been on duty
for twenty successive hours at the time
of the accident.

A Very Moderate Charge.

Considerable censorious criticism has
been indulged in, and b members of
the borough court as we I as by others,
because lawyer Warner charged the
borough $20 a day for attendance upon
the Daskam walk and tree case. Mr.
Warner probably will not very greatly
esteem the DAILY Gszn'r'rn’s opinion in
the case, but it strikes the “little hust-
ler” that a man who has been a mem-
ber of the bar more than a quarter of a
centur , a member of Congress a bor-
ough c erk and all that, and w 0 isn’t
worth $20 a day to sit on- such a com-
mission, cannot be "esteemed a promi-
nent professional man.
