Kicking Against Soft Coal.

The Philadelphians are kicking worse

than Texas bronchos over the soft coal
nuisance in that city. One would
think that the good people and “Coun-
cil’s Committee” of the Quaker city,
had at some time been forced to go up
our borough depot stairs when one of
the huge Housatonic locomotives was
vomiting its soft coal, smoke and cin-
ders into one’s eyes, ears and nostrils,
and saturating the clothing through-
out. The Times Of that city says the
Councils’ “smoke” committee yester-
day entered into further consideration
of the bill recently introduced by Mr.
\Vest providing that the railroads shall
[stop the nuisance caused by the dense
Nannies of smoke from engines using
Ibi'tuminflus coal. Several residents of
West’Fnifadeipllifl were present in sup-
port of the bill. They said that not
mnly does the smoke and dust ruin fur.
niture and clothing, but it seriously
depreciates the value of property.

Representatives of the Operative
Builders’ Association stated that they
had frequently lost the sales of prop-
erty 011 this account, and that many
houses-for a distance of several squares
oncach side of the railroad could not

ibs disposed of or rented on this ac-
'count.

A. M. Wilson, manager of the Woot-
ten Locomotive Company, and several
others, stated that there are devices
which make the running of locomo-
fives without smoke entirely feasible.

The committee will meet again Fri~
day and will then arrange for a visit to
the section of the city which is an-
noyed. '

. Mr. Blaine.

This is the way the New York Her-
ald, from its independent standpoint
views the situation as to the recent and
phenomena] outbreak of what in politi-
cal parlance may be termed a Blaine
cyclone. It says the way in which the
candidacy of Mr. Blaine has taken pos-
session of republicans throughout the
country is one of the most significant
signs cf the times.

It reminds one of a fire sweeping
through the dry grass of the prairies.

Six weeks ago there was, politically
speaking, no Blaine in the republican
His letter of declination was
considered final. He had practically
retired from public life. Two weeks
ago the lighted match fell into the dry
hay. and now Harrison is enveloped in
a suffocating cloud of mortification and
‘Blaine is the conspicuous leader of his
party.

No movement of this kind is without
a cause, and Harrison has only himself
to blame for the position which his
Secretary of State occupies. Without
doubt Blaine was entirely sincere when
he wrote that letter. He voluntarily
stepped aside and ceded to the Presi-
dent the right of way.

Harrison claimed the credit of reci-
procity. True, but it wasa piracy of
an authorship to which he was not en—
titled. Blaine is head and shoulders
above any other candidate of his party,
Harrison included—a man nOt only
worshipped by his followers, but re-
spected by his enemies.

It is an undoubted fact that Blaine
has been the conservative element of
the administration. The icy President
would have gone to all sorts of perilous
extremes if the fiery and impetuous
Blaine had not held him in check.
Blaine has been the prudent influence
in the Cabinet, and has saved his chief
from utter ruin on more than one occa-
sion. » ,

The Herald believes that the repub-
licans will act wisely if they nominate
Blaine. We shall then have a brisk
stand up fight, a fight without fear or
"favor, between the two parties, whether
the democratic candidate shall be Wat-
terson, a man from the West or Hill or
Cleveland.)

 

party.

Another Vermiform Appendix Re-‘
moved.

The delicate and 'even critical opera-
tion which has been so successfully per-
formed upon Rev. Mr. Watkins, rector
of Grace Church, and who so comfort-
ably left Norwalk Wednesday for New
York, to pass some weeks there as the
guest of Dr. and Mrs. Paige, prior to
seeking, later on, some quiet and recu-
aperative sea-shore or mountain retreat,
will render the. ensuing narrative of, a
similar operation upon Dr. Stiles Of

Hartford, of Special interest. to our

"Norwalkreaders. The Hartford Cour- .
rant gives an, extended account of the _

.r

 

 

WEEKLY - NORWALK- GAZETTE.

case of Dr. Stiles which has probably
been furnished it by Professor Halsted
himself, or some one of his authorized
professional assistants. This case is so
closely identical with that which a few
years Since caused the death of Mr. G.
M. Holmes’ promising young son, and
more completely so, with that of Rev.

 

Mr. Watkins, that we make the follow-
ing extended extracts from the Cour-.
ant’s exceedingly interesting report: !
“Dr. Charles W. Stiles, formerly of .
this city, now of Washington, D. C.,z
has recently been the subject of a very '
critical and delicate surgical operation
for the removal of the vermiform ap-
pendix Or “death-trap.” The opera-
tion, which was a complete success,
was performed by Prof. Halsted, of
Johns Hopkins hospital, Baltimore, aé
celebrated specialist in abdominal sur- ‘
gory. Dr. Stiles is doing well and will
probably soon be able to return to
Washington to his duties in the bureau
of animal industry in the department
of agriculture. '
Appendicitis, which is the name given
to inflammation of the appendix, tends
to the formation of abscesses, which
generally break into the abdomen. but
sometimes into the liver. the bladder,
the chest or the veins. If they break
into the abdomen peritonitis follows.
An examination of the appendix in the .
case of Dr. Stiles revealed the forma-
tion of two abscesses. one of which
would have broken into the abdomen
and caused death within a week; yet
he has had several attacks which have
passed away with no serious results.
owing to the abscess forming in that
part of the appendix where the dis-
charge was not into the abdomen. In
his case the walls of the abdomen had
thickened and contracted and a stric-
ture had formed, which in the course
of time must have resulted in death.
Cases of this nature are of great
scientific interest and practical impor-
tance. What is now knownto be ap-
pendicitis was a few years ago supposed
to be colic and surgical skill has at-
tempted the removal of the appendix (a
useless appendage so far as is known)
only within the last five years. Sever-
al deaths have occurred in this city
from this cause within a comparatively
recent period. Dr. Stiles’s case was
spoken of at the last meeting of the
City Medical society.
During the present year eleven oper-
ations of this character have been per-
formed at the Johns Hopkins Hospital,
all of which have been successful.”

GETTYSBUBG CROWNED.

The High “'ntor Mark Monument Un-
veiled 0:! the Battlefield.

GETTYSBURG, Pa, J one 3.——The crowning
event of the year at Gettysburg was con-
summated by the unveiling of the High
Water Mark monument in the presence oi
an immense and enthusiastic crowd. Much
regret was felt at the absence of President
Harrison, Who was unable to attend.

Rev. Dr. H. W. McKnight, president of
Pennsylvania college, made the opening
prayer. Hon. Edward McPherson then ex.
tended the “Words of Welcomaf’ and Colo-
nel Bachelder told about the “Copse of
Trees; Why Called the High W'ater Mark.”

S. M. Swope, of Gettysburg, then unveiled
the tablet and presented it to the Memorial
association, on whose behalf John M. Van

MONUMENT.

BIG If ‘r‘.’ ATE 1?. MAR K
derslice, of Philadelphia, received it. James
Jeffry Roche. Of Boston, read the poem and
Hon. James A. Beaver delivered the ora-
tion. He said in part:

The formal unveiling of the monument be-
fore us furnishes the occasion for this public
gathering, and marks an era in the progress of
the effort to make the battlefiel of Gettys-
burg teach history to coming gene tions. The
monument itself has been erected by appropri-
ations of money made by several of the states
whose troops were engaged upon this field in
the great battle which was fought here in J uly,
1863. ‘

So far as the significance of the monument it-
self is concerned, so far as it serves to perpe u-
ate in an especial manner the significance of
the history which was made here, it would
have been entirely proper for all the states
whose troops were engaged in the magnificent
charge of the Army of Northern Virginia and
its repulse by the Army of the Potomac to have
joined in making such an appropriation.

As the years go by I become more and more
convinced of the duty which devolves upon the
survivors of our late war to smooth the way
for the complete union. in sentiment and feel-
ing, of the people of all sections of our common
country, and for the utter destruction of sec-
tionalism in all it: forms and phases.

This is the thought which I would emphasize
upon this occasion. This is the appeal which I
make to those Of you who represent our peo-
ple of all sections in the legislative branch of
our government. The years are passing. The
shadows are lengthening; and. if those of us
who faced each other and fought each other in
the days which are here commemorated have
a duty to discharge or a mission to perform.
let us see to it that we seek our mission quickly
and discharge the duty promptly.

An Open Letter to Harrison.

HAVERHILL, Mass, June 3.—Sarah J.
Bly, a colored woman of this city, has writ-
ten an open letter to President Harrison,
protesting against the treatment of Ephraim
Griggard at Nashville 3 week ago. The lot-
ter closes as follows: “All we desire is to
have equal laws, equal rights and equal op-
portunities, and when the day comes that
this country has one at its head who shows
regard for the best interests of all Classes,
then and not before will she be What she
professes to be in her constitution.”

The “fall Paper Trust.

NEW YORK, June 3,—The wall paper
manufacturers held a secret meeting for the
purpose .of forming the trust. Twenty
manufacturers, representing nearly 75 per
cent. of the total output of wall paper in
the United States, have signed the trust
agreement. Fifteen firms remain out, and
of these, three are among the largest in the
country, namely, William Campbell & Co.,
of this city; the elder Janeway, of New
Brunswick, and M. H. Birge 8; Sons, of
Buffalo.
