Residents of_w_llton Excited .Over
the Acts of a Brute.
He Horsewhips His Wife.
It was reported Tuesday morning that
at Wilton, on Monday. Herbert Olm-
stead committed an act that ought to
bring down on his head the condemna-
tion of all law-abiding citizens. Some-
thing over a year ago he was married
to an adopted daughter of- D. H. Van-
Hoosear. In good time a little one
came to bless their home. But to Olm~
stead’s action yesterday. Seated in a
wagon he drove up to his house just as
his wife, who had been calling on a
neighbor, came up. He surlily asked
her where she had been. She‘ told him,
when with an oath he jumped from the
wagon with a whip in his hand and
commenced lashing his wife with it,
and not until neighbors interfered did
he desist. On being asked the cause of
his brutality, he said, “I did it because
she deserved it.” Mrs. Olmstead is
spoken of as a very worthy woman, but
what is said of her husband is of a far
different nature; indeed, he is spoken
of as a contemptible piece of humanity,
and his act of yesterday goes far to
justify that belief. The citizens of that
place ought to treat him to a scourg-
iug at a whipping-post, if one-half of
the stories told of him be true.

The fourth annual meeting of the
Connecticut Weekly Press Association
was held at \Vallingford on Tuesday.
The meeting was one of the largest in
the history of the organization. Many

nal, was elected to succeed him. Mr.
Pratt is now on his way to Cincinnati
to attend a special meeting of the ex-
ecutive committee of the national asso-
ciation. J. H. Vaile was appointed
legislative committee, and W. C.

Narrow Escape.
Charles Franke had a narrow escape
from being killed at Glenbrook Tuesday
morning. He came from New Canaan
on the first train down and got off at
Glenbrook intending to walk across to
the Consolidated depot and take atrain
there for South Norwalk. When he
got off the train he started down the
track in front of the engine on a. run,
and a small dog which was near by
started after him.
Frank turned around and made an
attempt to scare the dog off, but did
not notice the cattle guard ahead of
him and while running, and looking
behind at the dog, he fell into the
guard. He found that he could not
extricate himself from the guard and
the train, which had started up, was
nearly upon him, when with one super-
human efl'ort he managed to get out of
the hole and the train rolled by.

Meriden on Sunday, and was attended
by seventy-five delegates from differ-
ent cities in New York, New Jersey
and Connecticut. Resolutions were
adopted asking for restriction of Chi-
nese and other undesirable immigra-
tion and for election of United States
Senators by the people; also resolu-
tions in memory of the late Cardinal
Manning. The reports show a good
increase and healthy condition of the

SENATORIAL DIGNITY ASIDE.
An Example in which Two Senators
from the Northwest Figured.
‘ Senator Squire recently played a
scurvy trick on Senator John B; Allen.
They were traveling from Washington.
When they went to secure sleeping
berths there were only-two to be had—-
one upper and one lower._ The two sen-
ators “tossed up” for choice and Sena—
tor Allen won, taking the lower berth,
of course. During the night the train
stopped at a station in Missouri, where
a large, heavy woman entered the
sleeper looking for a berth.
Squire poked his head out between
the curtains and seeing the ponderous
lady said:
“Madam, the births are all taken, but
if you wish you can occupy the one just
under me, where my little boy is sleep-
ing.” , _
This was satisfactory to the Missouri
amazon, who removed. her shoes and
then swung around into the bunk.
Just about this time the disturbed oc-
cupant attempted to rise to see what
the intrusion meant.
With one fell swoop of her palm she
clapped it squarely over the gentleman’s
mouth, saying : “There little boy don’t
speak. Your father said I could sleep
here.”
Again the “little boy” attempted to
rise and this time he managed to say :
‘fMadam, I want to tell you that I’m
no boy.”
“Who are you then ‘
“Who ! I’m Senator Allen, from the
State of Washington,” he exclaimed.
“My conscience 1” she yelled, and
sprang up and dashed out of the car ex-
elaiming, to the consternation of every
one but Squire, “Oh, what what would
Hiram say if he knew i”-—Northwestern

The Result-offiGrip.
On Saturday afternoon last a young
man went into the South Norwalk of—
fiCe of the GAZETTE, after the paper
had gone to press, anxious to have a
column adv. announcing a ball given
by a drum corps published, offering to
pay for the same in advance, but seemed
satisfied when told that it could not ap-
pear before Monday. ie, however,
succeeded in placing the following adv‘
in the Sentinel, paying for it with a
check which was found to be perfect];
good. “Keogh’s Drum, Fife and Bu-
gle Band, Grand Ball, Concert and
Reception, at the Armory, Monday,
Jan. 18th. Fifty invited corps, and
bards. Orchestra forty pieces. Ad-
mission 50 cents.” He also ordered at
the same place 5.000 admission tickets.
Later he visited Licut. Col. Crowe,
who has charge of the Armory, stating
that the corps had intended giving the
concert in Randall’s Hall, but the sale
of tickets had been so unprecedently
large, the corps had decided "to hire
the Armory.
He advanced $45 to secure it. How
many other places he visited we have
yet to learn. The young man was
“Johnny” Keogh. He had been Sle
with the grip, which had left him a
“little daft.” Johnny is known as one
of the honest boys of East Norwalk,
and had by industry and saving ac-
cumulated quite a little money. Much
sympathy is expressed for his mother,
who late Saturday afternoon found him
and succeeded after a while in getting
him to go home.
Editor Golden speaks very highly of
both him and his mother, and the
money expended at that oflice will be
refunded. We learn that the young
man previous to his illness had been
connected with a. drum corps, hence'his
actions in the matter on Saturday. P.
S.—He is a member of the gallant Co.
F, and on Saturday presented its sus-
ceptible Cant. Reuben Rose with a
check for $25 and twenty-five tickets
for the honor of his presence.

“Davy” Nelson Dead.
David S. Nelson died at his residence
0.1 Fair street, on Sunday afternoon,
aged 57 years. Mr. Nelson had been
in failing health for some time past and
a short time ago was taken with the
grip. He was born at Glasgow, Scot-
land, and came to this country when
quite young. He was employed by
Frank Mead for many years as a candy
maker, then by Frederick Mead and
later by S. K. Stanley, but for the past
few years he has been with Frank
Starr. He leaves a widow. two daugh-
ters and a son. The funeral was
held from his late residence on ”Wednes-
day afternoon at 2 o’clock. Rev. Mr.
Graham will officiate.

Died in the South.
Henry M. Griswold, the missing heir
to $15,000, a quarter of the estate of
the late Asahel Griswold, of Bridge-
port, is dead. His grave is in Langley
Cemetery, Langley, N. C. He died
five years ago, as was ascertained by
F. S. Griswold, of Bridgeport, and an
uncle, G. Griswold, of this city, who
have been for months searching in the
South for tidings of the young man
and who visited the grave last Satur-
day. The body was disinterred and
found to be in a remarkably well pre-
served state. It was identified in an
instant by both the brother and uncle.
The remains will be rc-interred in
Bridgeport.

Grupe’s Reservoir Drawn Off.
The distributing pipes of the Grupe
reservoir have been clogged up for
some time past and but little water has
been able to run through them.
Thinking that possibly the screen at
the reservoir had been cbgged also,
the Water Commissioners ordered the
water drawn off the reservoir Friday,
and the screen cleaned, and that was
the reason, dear reader, that your wife
was unable to get enough water to
wash the clothes with on Monday.

Seen in a Mirage.
A wonderful mirage was distinctly
visible near Lewision, Montana, Sun-
day afternoon, which has caused con-
siderable alarm, because it is feared
the Indians may have started on the
war path and encountered a party of
hunters.
Through the vistas, during the after-
noon, the hunters and the red men
could be seen repeatedly to charge and
retreat. The Indians were apparently
well supplied with ammunition, and by
superior numbers finally succeeded in
capturing a party of a dozen hunters.
Those who witnessed the wonderful
scenic effect produced by the mirage
assert that they could distinctly see the
savages build piles of fagots and burn
their captives at the stake. Midwinter
mirages in the clear, crisp atmosphere
of the Rockies are rare; phenomena
of this character are usually a repro-
duction of real events or real sections
of the country. So far as could be as—
certained the Indians _on the reserva-
tions are peaceable.
