SPURIOUS TICKETS,

A Despicable Game Being Played by
 The Democrats Names Spelled
 WrOng-Great WatchfuIness Needed.
 Late last evening there were sent out into
 the doubtful wards hundreds of spurious
 tickets which on their face claimed to be
 genuine stCitizens'" tickets, while enclosed
 with them were "stickers'' with Judge York's
 name upon them. The tickets, in fact, con-
 tain the names of one or more candidates
 for ward officers so misspelled that it gives
 the name of an entirely different person.
 For instance, on the ticket sent out into the Sixth ward the name of Henry E. Norris,
 candidate for Councilman, is spelled
 sfMorris" instead of Norris, and the same game has been played ;n other wards, notably the Ninth and Second. The evident purpose is to so far deceive Republicans that enough of these spurious ballots will get into the boxes before the fraud is discovered to secure an election of a majority of Democrats in the next Court of Common Council. It is a desperate game the enemies of good govern ment are playing, and before voting both Republicans and Democrats who propose voting the Citizens ticket should carefully scan their ballots before depositing them in the box. The city ticket sent out by the Democrats may be readily recognized from the fact that it is considerably longer than | the genuine Citizens ticket.

 l The Hue And The Gray-A Pleasant Incident.
 Capt Bowen of the Norwich police force | while reviewing recently an old diary he kept while he was doing service with the Fifth | Connecticut Volunteers in the Army of the Potomac was prompted to write 8 note of | thanks to his captor at the battle of Cedar | Mountain, the major of the Fifth Virginia regiment, of Stonewall Jac kson's brigade, | for the kindness shown him at that time. He acted upon the impulse and addressed l Major Newton a genial letter in which he ex- pressed the desire, 'fIf business or circum- stances called Major Newton north, to have him visit Norwich and capture him | just once more," adding, "Nothing would please me better;" and also expressing s'the l hope to meet Major Newton at Gettysburg | in August next at the reunion of the brig ade." Major Newton received the letter,
 and in response wrote Captain Bowen 8 fine | fraternal letter full of spirit which does honor to the writer as a Christian, soldier
 and citizen of the republic. In conclud- I ing he said

It was commonly reported last evening that owing to the dissatisfaction in Demo- cratic circles many Democrats would vote the Labor ticket. The Labor vote of to day is decidedly an unknown quantity and is va riously estimated at from 300 to 1900, the latter being the figure at which it is placed by some of the most sanguine Labor party leaders.

THE DEADLY MERMAID.
The Beautiful Maiden from Under the Sea
Makes Much Heart Trouble.

New York Herald.
The making of mermaids is purely an Ameri
can achievement. although the FIRST inventor was
an Englshman now living in this city They
years ago. to I'll an order of a noted Snowman.
Hundreds since have been manufactured and
have been exhibited all over the country as gen
uine They are Of all sizes and shapes The
bodies and heads are made Of paper, rags and
WIRE The tails are of the Goldfish. The teeth
are fishes. The arms and legs are turkey bones
Dried eyes Of the turkey are used when avala-
BILE. They are presumed TO be more hideous and
fossil-like than those of glass or paste.
Tho secret of the meruaids' success is that
they are described as beautiful women who have
lost the power Of talking back and asking ques-
tons, their time being too much occupied with
padding splaslIing and combing long beautiful,
floating hair and singing. A short time ago Ed.
Burfeld the champion seal hunter of New
Brighton. S. L., thought he had discovered the
whereabouts of real mermaid, which he said
hung about Robbins reef He said that while
he was fishing at night he could distinctly hear
her singing johnny Morgan" and another of his
most favorite operas Mr.. Burfeld continued in
vile, caught big dogfsh, which on its travels
had swallowed a small musical box of the
Johnny Morgan" persuasion. Since then Mr..
Burfeld has given up his moonlight trips to Rob-
bins reef, and says The passes on the mermaid
raoket-no singing syringes for him."
The success of every mongrel woman depends
upon her historian. There are men VINO sit up
nights to think of something new to say about
them. Some Of the exhibitors are very happy
and clever In their descriptions. One of these
said the other day. 1--WE been side-shower all
me life, and have travelled the whole country over
The best route for mermaids is through Ohio.
The men there are wild TO see 'em I've known
half dozen engagements Of marriage broken off
because the lovers would go in the tent; and
there was a divorce suit started down in Knox
county because some old farmer fell In love with
the pictures of a mermaid at a side show Of a
circus Kinda queer things is mermaids.n

would exhibit to the gaze of an astonished public
how many reverend, very reverend. right rever-
end, and most reverend clergy forgot to pay

no notice of them and left them in the keeping

It would seem that the little pleasantly at
tached to the report of Clerk McLain's birthday

phatically denies the remorest intention of
entering upon the troubled waters of so uncer-
tain voyage.

THE WORKINGMEN'S
FRIEND.

The observance of the day of rest
by abstaining from the ordinary labors
of life, and turning the mind express
ly to the teaching of religion and the
care of the spiritual nature, is one of
the primary teachings of Christianity.
And upon it hang the best interests
of society, while it is deeply related
to home-life and personal character.
The Sabbath is the workingman's
friend. 1t was made for man-for a
world of toilers. 1t is also the friend
of the capitalist. He will receive
higher and better work from men who
rest upon the Sabbath and aproprl-
ately use it. The right observance
of it need hardly be said, tends to
healthfulness, industry, intelligence
sound morality.
On the score of economy-not to
speak of the higher plane of spiritu-
al life-it becomes of lpestimable i'm
portance for employers TO secure
their workmen the full enjoyment OF
the Sabbath and to set them the exam
Pile of the right use of it, and for the
workingmen rightly to guard and use
their day of rest. The Sabbath.
keeping people will have more true
comfort and self-respect and enjoy
ment of life. Here, as elsewhere
obedience to the law of God is thu
surest way to healthiest living, tt
soundest secular prosperity. Req
