OBITUARY.

Death of Mrs. John B. Darlington.
 A dispatch received at about o'clock this morning from New York city gives the sad announcement of the death of Mrs. Harriet Hayes Darlington, of this city, widow of the late John B. Darlington, who was for many years proprietor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER. Mrs. Darlington died at the resi- dence of her son-in-law, MT. TroWbridge, after brief illness. All that the best medi- cal skill and most devoted attention could render in her behalf were unavailing. Until yesterday it was not known that she was dan gerously in Mr. John B. Darlington, her son, left for her bedside early yesterday afternoon, pr. Robert s. Ives, of this city, accompany ing. When deceased left New Haven few days ago to visit at her daughters home she was in her usual health. The news of her demise will cause deep sorrow, and large circle of friends will deeply mourn her loss. The lateness of the hour precludes giving more than this brief mention of her life. Particulars regarding the nature of her ill ness have not yet been received.

LINCOLN RINK.
Webster School Pupils And The (

Webster School Pupils And The Or.
 phang Present.
 One seldom sees more happy and con- tented lot of children than was present at the rink yesterday afternoon. MF. Lincoln had invited the pupils of the Webster school and the orphans from the New Haven asylum to be present. A large number were present from both institutions and for two hours en- joyed themselves as only children during g holiday can. The orphans particularly en- joyed the sport. Although their tumbles were many, they did not mind them, for they quickly regained their feet and struck out as gracefully and as brsyely as their more for tunate brothers who have had more opportu- nifty to learn the art. The shouts and merry laughter of the chiI- dren one after another they wers piled into heap must have repaid the managers for their trouble. It was sad moment for the orphans when the time for their departure arrived, and many longing glance was cast back, as they filed out of the door, at the remaining skaters who were of spectators were present and apparently enjoyed the occasion as much as did the chif- dren. Manager Barber has engaged the band for every afternoon and evening session our- ing the holidays. Mir. George Streit has purchased large quantity of music which the band will play during the holidays

Ala From the Knights of LabOr-A
 Hopeful Feeling Generally Prevails
 Boarding House Keepers Boycott
 the ssFOu1,s men.
 SOUTH NoRwALK, Dec. 29.-A more hope full feeling is manifest in the great hatters' strike to-day than at any time since the lock out. Aid from the Knights of Labor Is as sured, as at their meeting in New York on Sunday $5, 600 was voted them and an additional 1000 during the prolonga- tion of the strike. The Pinkerton detective, who were sent here to investigate the alleged outrage said to have been perpetrated some ten days ago by the strikers against 'tfoup' men employed in Crofut & Knapp's factory, have not been able to find anything to cause one iota of suspicion to rest on the strikers. On the contrary the citizens of Norwalk and South Norwalk are in hearty sympathy with the strikerl and the course of the Norwslk Sentinel, which is controlled by the Mayor of South Norwalk, is condemned on all sides. Two cooperative associations have been formed and are now busy at work getting out sam ples which have thus far been very satisfac- tory to the trade.
 Charles E. Doty, at one time an extensive hat manufacturer in South Norwalk, and who some time since announced his inten. tion of going out of business, has made satis- factory arrangements with Cooperative union No. 2, and they have signed lease of the premises dating from yesterday. The terms of the lease could not be learned. A letter at some length was recently written to Robert Pearson, the president of the Co operative Hat company, by Sidney A. Sher- man, of Amherst, Mass, asking him among other things the aims and order of the organ izatlon. It was promptly replied to by MT. Pearson and has been extensively copied by the leading papers in the country. A circu- lar was got out some few days ago by the manufacturers, stating their side of the question, and has been in turn replied to by the strikers to-day. The leading manufacturers have by the recent strike been obliged to refuse large orders for hats from California, which loss alone must amount to number of thou sands of dollars, as the western people buy mostly from the higher priced articles, conse- quently the trade in hats has been transferred in great measure to Brooklyn, L. I.
 The executive committee convene four times daily and once in the evening and are apparently doing excellent work and are well organized The female employees are even better organized than the men and are deter mined to hold out at all hazards. Boarding house keepers refuse to take as boarders
 'foul" help employed in the factories, and they are obliged to sleep and eat where they are employed

An ExcItin0 TrOt.

An exciting trot took place on the Boule- yard yesterday afternoon between Albert Mix's sorrel horse and Frederick Shares chestnut horse. Both parties are from North Haven. The trot was from Terrill's, at the Boulevard in this city, to the Centervi1le Hotel and back, distance of nine miles round trip. The judges were George Ives, of North Haven, and John Lloyd, of this city, and they accompanied the race. Mr. Shares horse won the race, making the en- tire distance in thirty-two minutes without skip. The other horse did nobly, but ran for the last three miles, as testified to by the judges, and thereby came in ahead. The horses were hitched to road wagons. MT. Mix was not satisfied with the decision of the judges and Mr. Shares stated last even ing that he was ready to trot his horse against MT. 1dx's at any time within two weeks for S2O0
