A Fair Haven Youth Killed st the
Wire Mil1 Yesterday Afternoon.
A youth named Patrick Killoy, aged if
teen years, was killed at the wire mill in
Fair Haven shortly after three o'clock yester-
day afternoon. Nobody saw the accident
occur, but it seems that he was caught in
the machinery in the galvanizing shop and
was SO horribly mangled that he lived only a
few minutes. The mother of the youth, re-
siding on Jackson street, Fair Haven, was
almost frantic with grief -ahen informed of
his death. She lost her husband, Patrick
Killoy, some years ago, he being crushed
while coupling cars. William J. Kiloy,
the Grand street saloon keeper, is a brother
of the daceased

A NARROW ESCAPE
Skating the sound.


A skating party of young New York law
yers skated on Monday on the Sound from
Rye to Greenwich. They were Charles G.
Cowles and Justus A. B. Cowles; brothers,
well known in Bridgeport, Clarence Sackett,
and Thomas T. Sherman. After luncheon
they skated out to Captains island, about a
mile off the Greenwich shore, and from that
point started directly for Rye. After going
about three quarters of mile they struck
weak ice and repeatedly broke through.
Finally Mr.. Charles Cowles went completely
under, and his companions were unable to
approach near enough to rescue him. Messrs.
Sackett and Sherman succeeded in getting a
boat on the ice, which they pushed out to
the break, and finally, with great difficulty,
succeeded in rescuing Mr.. Cowles, who had
been in his perilous situation for half an
hour. The boat was pushed back to the
island, Mr.. Cowles being unconscious when
taken ashore. Fortunately a doctor, after
two hours labor brought him around all
right

Fsther, Mother, and Three Sisters Dead.

Father, Mother, and Three Sisters Dead.
Mr. David Claypool, formerly Sergeant
at-Arms ofthe New Jersey Senate, and now
Notary Public at Cedarville, Cumberland
Co., n. j., makes the following startling
statement: "My father, mother, and three
sisters all died with consumption, and my
Lungs were SO weak raised blood. Nobody
thought 1 could live. My work (ship-
smithing) was very straining on me with my
weak constitution, and was rapidly going
to the grave. While in this condition I
commenced using Mishler's Herb Bitters,
and it saved my life. Because it was so
difficult to get it in this little place, and I
had improved so much, / stopped taking it
for time, and the result is that I have
commenced going rapidly down hill again.
Somehow, Mishlers Herb Bitters gives
appetite and strengthens and builds me up
as nothing else does, and I must have .
dozen bottles at once. Use this commu-
nication as you please, and if any one wants
to be convinced of its truth, let them write
me and I will make affidavit to it, for I
owe my life to Mishler's Herb Bitters."
The secret of the almost invariable relief
and cure of consumption, dysentery, diar-
ri@a, dyspepsia, indigestion, kidney and
liver complaints, when Mishler's Herb
Bitters is used, is that it contains simple,
harmless, and yet powerful ingredients,
that act on the blood, kidneys, and liver,
and through them strengthens and invigor-
ates the whole system. Purely vegetable
in its composition; prepared BY regular
physician; standard medicinal prepara-
ton; endorsed by physicians and drug
gists. These are four strong points in favor
OF Mishler's Herb Bitters. Mishler's Herb
Bitters is sold by all druggists. Price 81 90
per large bottle. bottles for $500.

SUNDAY IN EUROPE.

Some four weeks ago attention was
called in these columns to the sudden
and general manifestation of interest
in many parts of the European CONT
ncnt i'll the reclaiming and preservation
of the Sabbath as day of rest. A
Swiss publisher, a Al. Caille, Of Vevey,
has decided to abandon his business
and to devote himself wholly to the
agitation of the Sunday question. He
has begun to issue weekly paper,
Jour lie Repos, as all organ of the move
ment. VI. Caille, according the Eglise
Libre, does not make enough of the
religious uses of the day. The editor
of the latter considers the Sunday as an
outcome of religion and Indispensable
to the existence of churches, as well as
hygienic and social necessity. He
looks forward to the time when gov
ernmcnts, anxious to promote the
physical and moral well-belng of their
subjects, will, on the ground of gcner-
al utility, require its external Obser-
vance. Divorced from religion the

SEPTEMBER, 1885.
BY j. b. Alexander, NJ. ID.

BY j. b. Alexander, NJ. ID.
The first ten days of September were
remarkably cool for the season, result
Ing in the lowering of the average tenn
perature of the entire month nearly 8
degrees below the September mean.
The rainfall, although excessive, was
confined mainly to the first - days.
Temperature. The mean tempera-
ture was 62.9, the September average
being 65.7. The highest temperature
was S2.O on the 21st; the lowest was
46.5, on the End, furnishing range of
$50 degrees. The mercury touched 80
only times during the month. No
trace of frost was observed.
Rainfall. This was 81 inches, 5 10
inches of which fell during the first 8
days; O.s6 inch fell ON the 18th, and
O.29 inch on the 30th. This amount was
2.3l inches above the average Septem-
ber rainfall. From the 18th to the 30th,
a period of II days no rain fell. The
entire rainfall for the months of 1885
amounts to 1927 inches, which has not
been equalled during years. There
lightning There were 9 rainy days,
and one (the 3d) attended with hail
which was moderate in amount and
size. Only one fog was noticed, on the
goth.
Cloudiness. The mean cloudiness of
the month was 40 (the scale of 10 being
used) the average cloudiness being 80.
| September, 1885, was consequently,
one third more cloudy than is usual.
There were IA clear days, cloudy
days and 8 partially cloudy, with
only one day without sunshine.
Wind. The prevailing winds were
south 40 times; east Is times; north j
times, and west 9 times. The average
force of the wind during the month
estimated upon scale of 10, was 2.7,
which was OF below the usual Septem.
ber wind-force. The average force
of the wind for days preceding the
autumnal equinox, was 1.5: that of the
five days following the equinox, was
81. The wind amounted to "brisk''
wind only once during this period OF
IL days. Thus there was as complete
an absence Of any fe9uinoctial storm
as could be, and this has been observed
by the writer so frequently at both the
vernal and autumnal equinoxes, that ii
has rendered him wholly skeptical as to
the existence of any disturbance that
deserved the name of "equlnoctial
storm" The infrequency Of wrecks
on our seaboard at these two periods
strongly sustains this view.
The complete absence of frost in
September and the delay of killing
frost mp to the present date (Oct. 16)
renders it very certain that the foliage
of our forests will fully mature and
that the leaves will "yellow up" per-
fectly. If this occurs we can very con.
fidently expect large amount of the
haze that attends, and, as l believe,
causes "Indian Summer"
