 Saturday evening at Carll's Opera House | when the galleries were packed with persons
 eager to hear Secretary Sherman noise was
 heard as if some support had given way, and
 a few timid people left the galleries. Noth- 1 ing happened, however, and it is believed the | noise was caused by the breaking of the back l bone of the overburdened Democratic party. real estate boom is reported to have oc- cured of late in Chicago and other leading prosperous northern and western cities Building enterprises have taken great start there, and the demand for houses increases so rapidly that a vast amount of work is ex- pected to be started next spring. We should not be surprised to see real estate looking up" even in New Haven before long.
 The Norwich Bulletin says with truth ''The best campaign document that could be circulated for Hobart B. Bigelow is his pie ture. His face is not merely a strikingly handsome one, but it reveals intelligence, generosity, manliness and good humor It is the face of man who can be trusted with the interests of other men. He has won the hearts of New Haven people so that 2,50O Democrats voted for him for Mayor in addition to tie full Republican force. When those that stand nearest to man and know him best thus admire him, it is safe to trust him. Indeed, Connecticut may esteem herself fortunate in securing such a man for her chief magistrate"

 A scheme is on foot in western Pennsylva- nia, and causing much talk in that region, for the secession of about twenty of the western counties of the State, with a population of about 1, 800 ,OOO, and the formation of new Alleghany." The movement dates back four years, to the time when it was proposed to remove the State capital from Harrisburg to Philadelphia. A petition was then presented in the Legislature to this end, but little mo- tice was taken of it. A secession club with large membership has been formed at Pitts burg for the purpose of agitating the sub- ject. The prime movers are said to be young Republicans who are ambitious to serve their country in public places, but one of the ar guments they offer is that the division would give the United States Senate two new Republi- can members, and act as an offset to the Demo- cratic plan to carve a new State out of Texas. Pittsburg people complain that when they want anything of the State they have to get down on their knees to Philadelphia It is likely that the matter will come up in the next session of the Legislature, but scarcely likely that it will meet with any success.
