The Norfolk Diamond Robbery.

Important Discovery 1n the Case-Ben
 BrOwn and ssE4is Woman Arrested.
 The Winsted Herald tells the story as fol- lows: It looks as though the mystery of the robbery at the Eldridgs mansion last summer is likely to be cleared up ere long. Ben Brown, the colored waiter who was arrested on suspicion of being the thief, and not long since discharged from custody in Litchfeld fail Ohere being not evidence sufficient to convict him of the charge), has been thor oughly ''shadowed" by detectives since his release, and on Wednesday he was rearrested by Deputy Sheriff Van Dusen of Canaan at Ansonia, who slso arrested a col ored woman by the name of Han nah St. John, with whom Brown has beensliying since his release from jail. The woman WAS employed in Norfolk at the time of the robbery, and when Brown went to jail she departed for Ansonia. Recently she has been making quite extensive purchases and at one place passed out 8 $20 gold piece. The coin was soon obtained by the detectives, and when questioned as to how she came by it her response was that it was a keepsake her brother gave her ten years ago just before he died. When shown the date on the coin, 1881 she saw she had made an irreproachable mistake, and at once confessed that Brown gave it to her. Since then Brown has acknowledged that he gave it to the woman, but claimed that ''Hadley" gave it to him in the Litchfeld jail l for not ''squealing" on his intended escape. The parties had hearing before Justice Cris
 sey in Norfolk Wednesday afternoon, which was adjourned till next Monday. Mean
 while the parties are in the safe custody of two deputies Murder will out, and so will diamond robberies, as 8 general thing. | Among other things stolen with the diamonds and jewelry, as will be remembered, were a number of gold coins, in all amounting to | about $4OO, the total value of articles stolen being between s. 900 and $4 900.

A King1z Character.
Third ConGregational ohurch-Rev. I
 Dennen on sauI,a Chnracter.

Third COnGregatIonal Church-Rev. pr.
 Dennen on saups ChAr4cters,
 Yesterday afternoon Rev. Dr. Dennen preached on the character of Saul, Samuel, 2, 17. The preacher traced the history of Saul from his election as king until his sui eide on the field of GiIboa. His mod esty or bashfulness when elected pr. Dennen thought arose from awkwardhess and inexperience rather than sensitiveness Ca very nice dis tinction.) His great faults were in0rdinate ambition, impulsivsness and hypocrisy. He disobeysd God in not destroying the Amale- kites, poisoning the sheep and swine and taking their king captive to mako his triumphal procession more imposing His malicious designs against the life of David and even his own sen Indicate the depth of depravity to which he had fallen. David's eulogy on the death of Saul does not sweeten his memory, but il does show the largeness and generosity oi David. Dr. Dennen drew very important lesson from the subject, showing the down ward, degrading tendencies of sin, whether in the protesting Christian or those who never made such profession. External come iness, personal graees or exalted position will not signify if we set our wills in opposl- tion to the will and purposes of God.

Saturday last. two loads from Sara
toga went to participate in the great
blueberry picking near VIM. Lords in
the same town. After remaining in
the woods some time, and finding
berries rather scarce, one of the party
proposed going home. In few min
utes the signal for starting was given,
the horses heads were turned toward
home when suddenly a fash of light
ming blazed around the horses and
wagons and struck tree close by.
This of course frightened the horses,
the hailstones began to fall thick and
fast, but the careful driver Ed. spoke
encouragingly to his steppers. urging
them on, and without any warning
whatever, a small hailstone the size of
a large ball struck him On the right
arm causing so much pain that for
Clme ne saw stars. One man In the
crowd was cut on the head through a
felt hat so badly that the blood ran
down his face quite freely. He was
afterward seen walking around with a
wagon seat on his head for protection
The women turned tin pals and boxes
over their heads and the clatter of the
chunks of ice on the tinware could be
heard above the dim of battle. The
horses were getting so badly bruised
by the sharp edges of the falling ice
that they began to get manageable
Ed. and one of the girls who sat with
him put a horse blanket around their
necks, but, when the horses commeuc-
ed to dance the Saratoga bend, and
wound up" with the Boston dip and
Newport, 1t was amusing to see Ed.
after several stupendous efforts sue
coed in getting the strap unbuckled.
For time desolation reigned supreme.
Miss Sara Turley (who was one of the
party) said she Immediately began to
look for ''fre escape" but failing to
find one, she did the next best thing,
and that was to pick up bailstones the
largest of which measured eight inches
around. All hands stopped at the
residence of Mrs. Mathews, where
they were kindly received, dry cloth
ing given to all, and after partaking of
hearty supper, set out for home feel
ing somewhat jubilant over the days
adventure, but thanking kind provi-
dence that they still lived.
