 Miss Anna Kane, aged twenty-four years, of Hamilton street, Bridgeport, was sent 10 the Insane retreat at Middletown Saturday for treatment.
 IN BRIDGEPORT.
 President Dwight of Yale delivered an ad- dress in the North Congregational church, Bridgeport, on Saturday at the funeral of Mrs. Charles Ray Palmer, the wife or tne pastor of the church. Deceased was sister of Mrs. L. 4. Barbour and the eldest daugh- ter of the late Alfred s. Barnes Of Brook lyn.
 THE LICENSE LAW,
 It appears that the committee who revised the Connecticut statutes made @ mistake Tn regard to the license law. A statute of lSo2 required that the names of the five citizens and taxpayers who endorsed an application for liquor license be published in the news papers or be advertised on the public sign pest. This made it difficult to get endorsers. The legislature of 1883 changed this so that nothing but the mere application had to be advertised, but in section 3,063, page 668, of the new revision, it is stated that the endorse ment as well as the application must be pub | lished. This was clearly an error of the re- visement committee.
 BURGLARS IN SOUTHPORT. A gang of. burglars struck w Westporo Ano1e ! day night and succeeded in running the ! town. The first house visited was that ot Augustus Jennings, and an armful of MI. len | nines' clothing were carried of without any | trouble. The thieves then turned their at | tention to the home of the Rev. MT. Holman, | but robbed the dominee's house of some small articles. They got into muss at the home of Attorney John Perry, well knowr | member of the Fairfield county bar. MT Perry heard a noise, and fearing that ht was in danger he jumped up and pulled hi | revolver and bIazed away st the door where l the men were at work. This drove oH th' burglars.

The democrats of New York have
elected Matthews the ex-Recorder of
Deeds at Washington, as an alternate
delegate to the National Convention at
st. Louis, and are making a big blow
over the matter. Well, it is big thing
for them to Go, to even give a Co]ored
man such an empty honor, and they are
welcome to all the credit they can get
out oft. The republicans in several of
the states have sent a large number of
Colored delegates at large and district
delegates to their convention at Chicago
and don't think anything about it, as
they only half did their duty in many
cases. A few alternates were also sent
but the men who accepted such posi-
tons in many cases were condemned
by the Colored press for accepting. An
alternate at large could have been sent
from this state but the Colored people
would not accept such an empty honor.

Arnett, Tanner, Gaines and Grant, as
bishops gives evidence of intelligence of
a high order, and has safely passed into
a new and promising era. Hearing Of
the selection we sought Rev, J. M. Hem
derson, the pastor of st. James A. M. E.
church and asked his opinion, he said !,
ION the whole it lisa good choice, but
the election of one of those men is a
surprise, and the failure to elect GER
tain other man is still more of a sur
prise, but the delegates are composed
Of some of the brainiest men of tile con-
nection and know what they are doing.
To have failed to elect DR.. Tanner
would have been fatal error his election
means the advancement of intelligence
and literature and is an assurance of true
progressiveness. DIR. Arnett is to the
AN. 3. Church what Blaine is to this
country, the best posted man on church
affairs in our connection, he also is
daring and energetic and is in Just the
place now for which he was born. Drs.
Gaines and Grant have been successful
men in the passionate and no DOUBT will
do credit to their new Office, DR.. Lee
should now be editor of the Review and
