Long and Terrible Illness
from Blood Poisoning
Completely Cured by Hood’s
Sarsaparilla.
Mrs. Mary E. O’Fallon, a very intelligent
lady of Piqua, Ohio, was poisoned while as-
sisting physicians at an autopsy 5 years ago,
and soon terrible ulcers broke out on her
head, arms, tongue and throat. Her hair all
came out. She welghed but "8 lbs., and saw
no prospect of help. At last she began to
ltake Hood’s Sarsaparilla and at once im-
proved; could soon get out of bed and walk.
She says: “ I became perfectly cured by
Hood’s Sarsaparilla
and am now a well woman. I weigh 12811152,
eat well and do the work for a 1a1ge family.
My case seems a wonderful recovery and
physicians look at me in astonishment, as
almost like one raised from the death,”

The Courant’s Opinion.
“J. S. Clarkson of Iowa. one of the
most active of the mistaken crowd who
tried to down President Harrison at
. "\Iinneapolis, is out now in a long let-
tei attacking the nomination of Howell
J ackSon for the supreme court. In
this, as in his move‘ last June, Mr.
Clarkson is utterly out of touch with
the majority and the best part of the
Republican party. At least, so says
the Hartford Courant. There are more
intense Republicans than even the
Courant, who can’t see, by the l1ght of
the November election, any lack of
Sagacity on Mr. Clarkson’s part, in op-
posing the nomination of acan‘didate
whom the Republicans could not elect.
But then there is good sense enough
in these concluding words of the Cour-
ant to make amt-ails for its mistaken
devotion to a'candidate the most ac-
tive workers and voters of his party
did not want, when it says—“That sort
of statesmanship has had its day that
could see no good on the other .side.
and that preached the old-fashioned
doctrine that “the worst Republican is
better than the best Democrat, ”, 01'
"the worst Democ1at better than the
best Republican.” ' An intelligent and
patriotic Nation is sick of such twad-
dle.” ’ ' , _
We welcome the Courant to the
ranks Of honest ,independent journalism
in company with the GAZETTE.
A Scandalous Practice.
At two recent funerals remarks the
\Vorld, there have been most shocking
and indecent exhibitions of a selfish-
ness positively brutal in its disrega’i‘d
of the rights and feelings of the be-
reaved.
It was necessary to guard Mr. Blaine’ s
grave for days to prevent the carrying
away of the flowers strewn upon it by lov-
ing hands. At Mrs. Whitney’s funeral
yesterday, as soon as the services were
over, there was a charge of flower
grabbers upon the very altar—a rush
so determined and violent that it re-
quired a force of Six policemen to re-
strain it.
The relic-hunting instinct of small
minds, which was probably the motive
in both cases, is always easily tempted
to vandalism, but rarely has it mani-
fested a quality so coarse as this. Rel-
ic- hunters have chipped many monu-
ments to bits, but never before we be-
lieve, have they charged upon new-
made graves or stripped the altar as
the funeral left the church.
If this is to be their temper we shall
need a statut‘e making such vandalism
a. felony.
It 1s a notorious, as it is a painful fact,
that vases, flowers and flower recepta-
cles, that loving hands have placed on
the graves of their dear ones, are fre-
quently despoiled or stolen outright
in our Norwalk Cemeteries. This is
particularly so in Union Cemetery and
some stringent law ought to be enacted
by the Connecticut Legislature to sup- '
press this brutal outrage.

The Leading Citizen.
Perhaps the greatest nuisance with
which every community has to contend
is the professmnal “leading citizen,” ,
The indi-.
says the Washington Post.
vidual who makes a business of posing
as the head and front of every moVe»
ment is an interesting study. As a
rule he comes from a family with gilt-
' edged ancestors find an elongated his-
tory, and his sole mission on earth is
to impress his fellow beings with his
own superiority and to sympathize
with them on account of their mental
and physical defects.
There is not a cOmmunity on the face
of the earth that doesn’t possess a pro-
fessional “ leading citizen.” Villages
and towns have been started with all
residents on an equal footing, but' 111 a

that doesn‘t carry the indorsement,,of
the “leading citizen ” is sure to be re-
garded with suspicion, and its failure
Such is the
thrives at the business.
It is very easy to pronounce the pro-
fessional “leading citizen ” a humbug
and a fraud. He is an individual of a
making trouble. He teaches the com-
munity to believe that his advice, opin-
ions, and counsel are indispensable,
and, strange as it may appear, he finds
a great many apt scholars and assist-
ants. The day is coming,
when the peopldwill tire of the “lead-
ing citizen ”' business. Every move-
ment of a public nature will be consid-
ered upon its merits, and public men
will live and be measured on their
. present ability, and n’dt‘on the virtues '
of their ancestry. Then the persons
who find the “leading citizen” busi-
ness profitable will be out of employ-

Murder in Waterbury.
Tomasso Palletto aged 38 years, an
Italian baker of Waterbury was fatally
stabbed in Peter Morello’ s saloon In
that city by Fr ango Peppo. A party of
six Italians were engaged. in playing
cards in the saloon, when Peppo took
exception to some remark made by Val-
letto, whereupon Pep-p0 drew a stilletto
and stabbed Palletto 1n the chest, from
the effects of which he died in ten min-
utes. The knife penetrated the heart,
and in consequence death was almost
instantaneous.
been seen since. It is believed he has
left town and the police in neighboring
cities have been notified to look out for
him. Little is known of him other than
he is a laborerabout 25 years old. The
murderer is described as heavily built,
tall, dark, with a black moustache. He
wore a dark suit and dark overcoat.
" Twelve Hours a Day.
The bill introduced in the Legisla»
ture regulating the hours of labor of
surface railroad employees was first
introduced in the House by Represent-
ative Healy of Windsor Locks. Before
the Labor committee Mr. Healy strong-
ly urged its favorable consideration.
A number of others, among them sev-
eral street railway employees, also
spoke for the bill and drew vivid pic-
tures of the hardships street railway
employees were forced to undergo in
working from 14 to 16 hours a day in
all kinds of weather. It was represent-
ed to the committee that in appearing
before them and asking for ameliora-
tion of their present condition the em-
ployees were in danger of losing their
situations.
The bill reads as follows:
“That 12 hours’ labor, to be per-
formed within 12 consecutive hours,
with reasonable time for meals, not
less than one hour for each, shall con-
stitute a day’ S labor In the operation of
all cable, electric, tiaction and horse
car street surface railroads for the em-
ployees in operating such railroads. ,
‘ That it shall be unlawful for any
such corporation, or Officer or agent of
the same to demand or exact from any
of the employees more than 12 hours
within the 24 hours of the natural day,
and within 12 consecutive hours there-
in whether such employees be em-
ployed by the trip or trips, the job, the
hour, the w,eek the month, or in any
manner whatever, unless in case of ac-
cident, or unexpected contingency de-
mandihg more than the usual service
to the public.
“In such cases wherein extra labor
from such employees, extra compensa-
tion shall be paid.
‘ Any violation of the provisions of
this act shall be punished by a fine not
exceeding $100. ”
