We think we can cure a bad case of
Backache quicker with one of Carter’s
Smart Weed and Belladonna Backache
Plasters,than by any other application,
and after the Backache is cured, you
can still wear the plaster without dis-
comfort for two or three weeks, or lon-
ger. This combihation of Smart Weed
and Belladonna is a great hit, and it is
hard to find any pain or ache that will
not yield to it. Price 25 cents. Sold
by druggists everywhere. ‘ .,

Saturday afternoon a large audience
composed of the members of Ontario
county bar, professional men and rep-
resentative citizens of Canandaigua, as-
sembled in the court house to listen to
the impressive ceremonies attending the
{hanging of the portrait of the late U.

S. Senator Elbridge Gerry Lapham.
The large, handsomely mounted oil per-
trait was executed by art1st C.

John Donnelly has the most unique
walking stick in this section. It is of
such a growth that it was easily fash-
ioned into the form of a prize-fighter,
with perhaps the exception of the legs
which are more like those of a sprinter.
Ask him to show it to you. It was pre-
sented to him by a New York friend,
while John was in that city one day
last week. He also has a set of
false teeth which he claims to have
found on Fifth avenue. and which he
will dispose of at a low figure.

A story which comes from Torring-
ton, Conn. is a further illustration of
the difficulties and annoyances which
confront the school teacher. A Tor-
rington schoolma’am was trying to im-
press the small bOy with the meaning
of the word better. To illustrate, she
asked: “Now, if you were sick and a
doctor came and gave you some medi-
cine, what would you be?” “Dead,”
was the unexpected answer. The next
day the word man bothered the little
fellow. The teacher, nearly out of pa-
tience. asked: “What is your papa?”
“A Democrat,” was the reply.

There‘is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat-
ment, pronounced it incurable. Sci-
ence has proven catarrh to be a consti-
tutmnal disease, and therefore requires
constitutiODal treatment; Hall’s Ca-
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney &' 00., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the market.
It 1s taken internally in doses from 10
dropsto a teaspoonful. It acts directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the BYstem. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it fails to cure.

The Merchants’ and Miners-Bank
' at Tallapoosa Fails.

 

The Vice President Under Arrest-

A press dispatch from Atlanta, Geor-
gia. sa 7s: ,

The Merchants’ and Miners’ Bank at
Tallapoosa is in the hands of a receiver,

Its vice president, R. L. Spencer, 01
the Georgia-Alabama company. of
which Gen. B. F. Butler was premdent,
is under arrest. It is generally under-
stood that the affairs of. the company
are in a bad state Its directors, as
published, are as fol ows: Gen. Benja-
min F. Butler, Massachusetts; Hon.
Logan H. Roots, Arkansas; J. W. Cas-
eldine, Georgia ; ex-United States
Treasurer James 'W. Hyatt, Connecti-
cut; Hon. George C. Scofield, New
York; T. C. Smith, Brooklyn; L. M.
Sanford, Kentucky; Gen. J 01111 B.
Gordon, Georgia; Hon. R. H. Bright,
Washington, D. C.; E. F. Mann, New
Hampshire; E. R. True, Washington,
D. C.; ex-Governor Robert L‘. Taylor‘
Tennessee; P. K. Rook, Arkansas; F.
Y. Robertson. Nebraska, and D. C.
Scoville, New York.

Gen. Benjamin F. Butler, who was
advertised as president of the Georgia-
Alabama Investment and Development
company, now in financial trouble at
Atlanta, says: “I have not been an offi-
cer in. the company for some time. I
believe I own three or four shares of
stack, which came into my possession
at the organization of the company,
over a year ago. The parties who got
the company up came to me and offered
me the presidency of it, but at first I
declined, yet afterwards they were so
desirous that I should accept the office
that I allowed them simply to use my
name. About eight months ago, be-
coming aware of the way the business
was transacted, I withdrew my name,
and so now have no connection with
the company, except holding the stock
I speak of.”

Hon. James W. Hyatt, ex-treasurcr
of the Georgia-Alabama Improvement
Company, when interviewed'by a GA-
ZETTE representative Wednesday said:
“I know nothing whatever about‘the
bank other than that it was a state
bank. I never owned a dollar of stock
in it and know absolutely nothing of
its trouble. I was deposed as treasurer
of the Georgia-Alabama Improvement
Company some months ago, since which
time Ihave had no knowledge of its
affairs.”

A considerable amount of the stock
of the Georgia-Alabama Improvement
Company is held in Norwalk, and what
effect, if any, the failure of this state
bank will have on this company is not
known.

Re-married His Second Wife.

Announcement was made Tuesday
of the marriage of Eben H. Burr,
freight agent of the Housatonic Rail-
road Company in Danbury, to Miss
Winifred Flo d, which took place yes-
terday in the ‘alvary Episcopal Church
at New'York. There is an interesting
story behind this simple announcement.

In 1884 Burr was working for the
Housatonic Railroad in Greenfield and
fell in love with the telegraph operator
there. A marriage followed, and two
years later a separation. The wife
went South, and three years ago Burr
heard that she was dead. Eighteen
months ago Burr was transferred to the
head of the freighting department in
Danbury, but one month previous to
his going there he married Miss Wini-
fred Floyd of New York.

About a year ago it began to be ru-
mored that Burr’s first wife, was still
living and that he was a bigamist. The
annoyance of the rumor made Burr in-
vestigate, and he learned that it was
true, and that she was working in New
York. Then his second wife left him
to return to her home. Last Saturday
Burr secured a divorce from his first
wife. His re-marriage with his second
wife is the happy ending to the ro-
mance.

Oyster Thieves Sentenced.

Alfred. Walling, who was convicted
in the cr1m1nal Superior Court last Fri-
day of stealing oysters from the beds
of Captain Chas. E. Palmer at Green-
wich, was Tuesday sentenced; by
Judge Andrews to six months in the
county jall. His wife and child were
in court, and Mrs. Walling wept bitter-
ly when her husband was sentenced.

John Klpp and Eugene Kipp, broth-
ers, who were arrested for the same
charge, pleaded guilty and were also
sentenced to s1x months in jail.

The law is such that the conviction
of oyster thieves carries with it, under
section 2,400 revised statutes. the con.
fiscation of the boat which they were
using, The sloop Emma Jane, there-
fore, may be sold under that statute to
pay the expense _of the suit, and one-
half of the remainder to go to the per-
son informing, and the other half to
the town wherein the offense was com-
mitted._ .

Veterans Looking for Their Money.

There is a debt of $12,000 hangmg
over the town of Fairfield which that
municipality is morally but not legally
bound to pay. It is an obligation they
owe to 22 members of the 17th Con-
uecticut who went to the front and im-
perilled their lives to save their coun-
try during the dark days of the rebel-
lion. It is a debt which has long since
been outlawed, but which through pa-
triotic pride Fairfield residents will
some day agree to liquidate. At the
present time, however, affairs look
rather dark for the surviving veterans,
and they are inclined to believe that
the money will never be turned over to
them. , _

The company was organized under
Capt. John McCarthy in August, 1862..
Fairfield had been called upon for its
quota of men, and a bounty of $200
was offered to volunteers.
at that time was offering only $100 and
consequently a number of Bridgeport
men enlisted from Fairfield In order to
obtain the larger amount.

All but 22 of these volunteers ob-
tained their bounty, but these men
went to the front and made no_efi‘ort to
collect the money which was rightfully
due them. Even after the war had
come to a. close, the soldiers returned
to their homes and paid no attention to
their claims, and it was 1868 before the
matter was discussed by them. At that
time the surviving members gave their,
claims to 9. Bridgeport lawyer, with in-
structions to collect the money from
the selectmen of the town. The law-
yer was occupied with other business
at the time and allowed the matter to
drag along Without taking urgent steps
to recover the money.

In 1874 a special meeting of the town
was called to make an apprOpriation to
pay the claims of the veterans. The
matter was freely agitated at the time
and public feeling ran high. The
meeting was largely attended and a
number of enthusiastic speeches were
made. The town was then deeply in
debt, however, taxation was higher
than it had been for some time, and
the request of the veterans was denied.
The motion to make the necessary ap-
propriation resulted in a tie on the first
ballot and on the second it was defeated
by one vote.

Since that time the selectmen of the
town have refused to pay the claim of
the veterans, and now with accrued in-
terest it amounts to nearly $12,000. A
committee from the surviving claimants
last week called upon Attorney J. D.
Toomey, J r., and placed the matter in
his hands. The attorney visited the
town clerk’s office in Fairfield and went
’carefully over the records. He found
that the money was due the soldiers,
but as the claim was outlawed the town
could not be compelled to pay it. The
veterans feel sorely disappointed, but
Fairfield residents say that when the
town is prosperous a meeting will some
time be called and the necessary ap-
propriation to pay the soldiers will in
all probability be made—Bridgeport
Standard.

 

Walton Gets Three Years.

Edward Walton, the murderer of
William Godfrey of Bedding, will
spend the next three years in the state
prison. Walton pleaded guilty to man-
slaughter last Friday and evidence was
heard in the case. Drs. Hubbard and
Ward testified Tuesday as to the pos-
sibility of Godfrey’s death as the result
of a fall against the sofa. Walton
claimed that he did not strike Godfrey,
but simply pushed him. The Raynor
woman, who was a witness of the affair,
verifies this statement. Walton was
fortunate in getting so short a sentence,
the minimum penalty being two years.
The Raynor woman was discharged.

month they will sail away again from
“the land of the midnight sun” for

ten days.

 

Suit Against the Housatonic.

A suit for $6,500 has been instituted
by the estate of William H. Barnum
against the Housatonic railroad. The
action is to recover for thirty-four
freight cars alleged to have been sold
by the plaintiff to the Housatonic road
in October, 1889. It is alleged that no
part of the purchase money agreed up-
,on has ever been paid. The late Mr.
Barnum was for several years president
of the Housatonic.

Attorney J. Belden Hurlbutt Monday
night received a telegram from U. S.
District Attorney George P. McLean,
stating that the case of George S.
Grumman,charged with counterfeiting,
which was to have come up Tuesday,
had been indefinitely postponed. This
action on the part of the new District
Attorney looks as though he did not
think the case worth bothering with in
view of the evidence on file.

 

May Go to the Almshouse.

May Hendricks, of South Norwalk,
who attempted to commit suicide in
New Haven last month, is still an in-

Three-fourths of the members of. the
