Horrible Death in 'a Vat.

Michael Lawler. 28, employed at
Walker’s paper mill in Burnside, East
Hartford, entered the mill through 'a
window Saturday night to get a book
to read at home. He slipped from the
window sill and fell into a vat of solu-

tion of soda ash. People hunted for

him all day Sunday, and yesterday-

.mornin his body was found in the vat

10 feet eep. He had slowly perishe
from the pbison of the solution, which
ate away his skin and portions of flesh.

 

The State Fair.

The state fair comes out.ahcad this
year. The total ate receipts at the
park for the four ays were $6,450 and
at the rink $588. Other receipts were
estimated as follows: Rents, 3100; ad-
vertising, 8325; grand stand, $650; mem-
bership tickets, $650; colt stake entries,
8300; speed entries. 8650; other sources,
8300; total, $11,003. The expenses are
not yet footed up, but it- is sure that
there will be a surplus. which Will be
about what was taken in the last day.

 

 

Did Not See the Monkey.

The following story is told'by the
Bath (Me) Enterprise of a little three
year old South Nor-walk girl, who is
visiting with her parents in that place :
The first time she ever went to church-
her father gave her some monev to put
into the contribution box. the had
never heard a church organ before and
thought it was a hand organ; When
she got home the little one was being
asked quesnions about the church and
how she liked it. To these questions
she made an answer which caused a
laugh, saying, “I heard the music and
gave the man his money. but I didn’t
see any monkey there”.

Queer Trotting.

In the fourth heat of the 2.30 race at
the Fair Grounds, Tuesday, starter
Johnson sent the horses off with Sim
Brown. the pole horse, pacing, and at
least two full lengths behind Lucky
Baldwin. Before the first turn was
made Baldwin had taken the pole and
forced Brown on the outside. As the
turn was made the “rubbers” on the
track yelled that Brown was pacing.
which caused Mr. Johnson to watch the
horses as they trotted around the cir-
cuit. When coming down the home-
stretch Sim Brown, who was trotting.
collared Baldwin and took the lead,
and at the distance pole the latter left
his feet and ran the remainder of the
distance and under the wire. Mr. J ohn-
son called Sim Brown to the stand and
cautioned his driver about pacing, who
replied that as he was sent off under a
pace he could not very well help pacing

' part of the distance, but that he had

caught Sim as soon as he could, which
was strictly true. In deciding the heat
Mr. Johnson set Sim back to last place
and gave the heat to Lucky Baldwin,
who not only had received two lengths
in starting, but had fouled Sim on the
first turn and ran from the distance
pole under the wire.

 

New Butter Store.

Those .ivory letters which have for
months', on the windows of a Main
street store announced to all the loca-
tion of Roth’s-cigar store have been re-
moved, and the manager ‘of the store
has retired from business; A fact that
will be sorry news to his many friends.
“Vic” Roth is the manager to whom
we refer. Through sunshine and raih,’
howling wintry blasts and cutting sleet
for months and months “Vic” has
every day been “on deck” to wait on
customers. Be business dull or brisk,
all were greeted with a cordial wel-
come, whether or no they came to pur-
chase a five cent plug of' tobacco or a
ten dollar box of cigars. But “Vic”
withal seemed at times discontented.
He was making money too rapidly, and
in a fit of despondency he decided to
go out of the business and to Califor-
nia. Seriously “Vic” has won the ap-
probation of- all as an honest dealer in
wares nicotine. Ever of a happy dis-
position he could not do otherwise than
gain friends. “He had,” said one who
knows him well. “the heart of an ox.”
\Ve understand that he has accepted a
very lucrative position with a New
York firm with which his bent for trav-
el and making new acquaintances will
be afforded a grand opportunity. He
is going to the wild and wooly west,
and if these columns do not. in {he fu-
ture chronicle some achievements of
which “Vic” is the horn we shall great-
ly miss our guess. That he may ever
cast hislines in the plousaiztcstof places
is the wish of all who know him. llllo’
“V710.“ ,

The store vacated by him will be cc-
cupied as u butter and sin-if gz'oCcz-y

ing and went home under the influence.
He and his wife then began quarreling.
Haddock went to a neighbor’s house
and borrowed a revolver, stating that
he . wished to kill a cat. He returned
to his house, and a few moments later
the report of a pistol was heard. His

Rescued a Child-

Jame McKiernan saved another life
Thursday. As he was coming up
Water street he saw a small child play-
ing on the railroad tracks at the cross-
ing, while a train was backing down
towards it. He ran and iterally
snatched the youngster from tLe Jews
of death, just as the train was Within
but a few feet of it, the child all uncon-
scious of its danger. McKiernan’s hat
was knocked off by one of the cars and
crushed under the wheels. This is the
third child he has rescued at this cross-
ing. They all belong to an Italian
family livmg near by, and are allowed
to play about the tracks to the danger
of their lives. Mr. McKiernan says
that something should be done to stop
it as he cannot afford to lose a hat every
few days, nor the time to hang about the
crossing to save lives.

den and Representative Randall of

death. , He offered a resolution of sym-
pathy, which was passed by a rismg
vote.

' Another recess was taken until 4
o’clock, at which time the House met
and adjourned until 1 p. 111'. Nov. 15.

Burglars Captured.

The South Norwalk police added an.
other notch to their already long list- of
brilliant achievements Saturday after-
noon. Saturday morning Chief Voll-
mer received news from Stratford that
the General Store of L. H. Todd & Co.
had been robbed Friday night of a
large quantity of small articles, and re-
questing that he be on the lookout for
the thieves. The Chief detailed Ofli-
cers Conley and Gladstone on the case.
Saturday afternoon it was learned that
a couple of suSpicious looking ‘charac-
ters had been soen in East Norwalk.

, The officers immediately took a train
for that place. Alighting at the depot
they walked along the track until they
passed the bridge known as the "White
Bridge,” a point nearly to Westport,
where they saw two men taking things
easy in a lot beside the track. The
men were placed under arrest, after a
struggle. and brought to South Nor-
walk and placed in tho lock-up. where
they gave their names as James Lin-
c01n of Baltimore, and William Elliot
of Philadelphia. Their pockets were.
stuffed full of ear-rings, scissors, pock-
et-knives, watch chains. etc, amount-
ing in all to between $75 and $5100 worth
of goods. The Strutford parties were
informed of the capture of the thieves,
and Saturday evening, Mr. Charles A.
Lovell, accompanied by Constable
Charles E. Sttzgg of Strutfo‘rd, came to
South Norwal l: and Mn". . :ied thenrti—
clcs found on the men. . .- a two thieves
were then handcuffed together and
taken to till-afford on the 8-H train.

The ollicers who made the arrest do-
curve. iuucn credit for their clover work
in the matter.

stantially we follow; :

We propose 'to consider first those
questicms immlviug the Construction of
the actot’ 18:15}, relating to elections,
known as the “secret. ballot not” two

in adopting this course ; first, the con-
struction of that. act is of immediate
practical iinportunm: in View of the ap-
proaching elections ;'und there is a genr
cral desire that these questions should
be authoritively determined at an early
day ; and if the court should hold that
it has no jurisdiction of these cases.
there might be some impropriety in
proceeding to discuss and determine
mi nor questions involved. ’ .
Secondly, if the views taken of these
questions shall lead to the conclusion
that it is not shown that anyone has a
majority of all the votes legally cast at
the election in 1890. for either of the
offices in. dispute. both cases will be
practically disposed of by the facts and
we shall be relieved of the necessity of
cuneidering and determining some
grave questions of constitutional law.
In taking this course we assume, for
the purposes of these cases, that the
court has Jurisdiction at least to the ex-
tent of inquiring into and determining
the facts of the cases whatever may be
said as to the power of the court, in a
certain contingency, and'in the present
state of things, to apply a remedy.

The Danbury Fair.

An experience of twenty-three years
enables-the managers of the» Danbury
fair to come before the people this year
with the promise that the twenty-fourth
annual fairand cattle show of the Dan-
bury Agricultural society will excel all
preVious exhibitions-held under the an.
spices of that society.

Additional facilities for display, to-

gether with greater liberality in pre-
miums, will tend to increase the num-
ber of entries in the bench show, art
gallery, horse and cattle and all other
departments. No finer blooded stock
can be seen in New England than will
be exhibited at this fair. ,
The general purses for trotting
amount to $33,000. This sum does not
include one of the many special purses.
All the Space in the main building is al-
ready enga: ed and most of that'in the
mammoth tents is taken, insuring the
largest “inside” exhibit in the history
of this marvelously successful fair.
The Danbury fair opens on’ the first
Tuesday in October. It is never post-
poned on account of bad weal; r or for
any other reason. It will open Tues-
day. October and will continue
through the week, including Saturday.
It will be, as it has been for many
years, the leading agricultural. trotting
and industrial exhibition in the New
England states. _
