The Kind We Have Been Having Not
 So Unreasonable After All.
 Hartford Courant.l
 A correspondent of the Courant, thinking the weather of the past two days not 30 very unusual at this season, has looked up the record he has kept for the past ten years and reports that in 1878 there was heavy snow- storm November 9th, and from November IS to 23d inclusive it rained nearly the whole six days. In 1879 there was snow storm November 9th, and heavy storm and gale on the 21st. In 1880, November 9th and 9th, two days rain storm; snow storm on Mo- vember 20th and again on the 25th, with the intervening days intensely cold. In 1881 a snow storm on November 4th, and very hard snow storm on the 23d. In 1882 8 heavy snow storm November 17th, another on the 27th, on the 18th very cold. six de- grees above; very hard snow storm the 2Sth and on the 3Oth, Thanksgiving day, good sleighing. In 1883 there was 8 hard rain storm lasting four days from November 21st to November 24th inclusive, and on the 26th it poured all day; no snow until the middle of December In 1884 two days of snow rain and sleet on November 18th and 20th and 8 great storm with gales on the 23d. In 1885 g very heavy snow storm on November 23d and on the 24th and 25th snow and rain. In 1886 snow Nov. 18th; two days of rain, with high winds, on the 27th and 18th and another on the 18th; while last year, 1887, rain, snow and slush November 11th, while it was rainy on the 23d The evening of the 24th Thanksgiving, very cold, rainy day; the 27th and the 18th another cold rain.

 officials Into the HallIVeM Case.
 Treasurer Spsulding of the Stonington Saw ings bank was in the city yesterday in con- sultation with the banks representative, Att
 torney Arvine, and with H. P. Hoadley, who is the banks present agent in this city, in re- lation to the operations of Samuel Halliwell.
 Detective Brewer is also at work on the case.
 He is looking up the records as to William
 OConnelI and to see whether he was alive or
 dead Nov. 29, 1888; also whether he ever
 existed. His name was signed to the ''Ray- nor" mortgage and it was stated that he had
 been carpenter in the employ of Halliwell.
 The bank desires to know whether he was
 alive when the mortgage was signed. In the
 town clerks office yesterday it was discover cd that Halliwell had on September 2, 1883, had mortgage recorded wherein one T. H. Thompson agreed to mortgage certain piece of land on the corner of Sylvan avenue and Stevens street to the Stonington Say inQs bank 'twith buildings to be erected thereon for $5,000 As matter of fact Thomas H. Thompson's name does not appear in the city directories, and it is fact | that no buildings were ever erected on the \ land described and if the Savings bank al- | lowed Halliwel1 to have the $5, 900, the case \ is simply duplicate of the $10,e00 "Ray- nor'' case. H. P. Hoadley says that the bank people came to this city year or two ! ago to look at the property they had mort gages on. It was discovered that the land l they had loaned money on was almost worth
 less. The "Raynor" property, the ''Thomp- | son" property and the Simmons" property. on which the bank had loaned $10,000, $4,- 900 and s, 900 respectively, were all vacant
 lots, whereas the banks mortgages stated that the property was all improved. Mir. Hoadley could not tell why no action was taken against Halliwen then, but feared that
 if they made stir they would lose their in
 come from the money loaned. Halliwell con timed to act as agent

Some Facts.
0CSBs

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 About these days certain persons have a tremendous amount of love for the free pub lie library. On last Tuesday night James E. English and other rich members of the His- torical society presented petition to the common council asking that the State House be immediately repaired for the use of the public library. That petition said: ''The ob- lection that it cannot be repaired except at great expense is met by the report of the State House commission, which shows that it can be made suitable for the library both within and without for $57,00O."
 Is this statement oorrectl If am properly informed it will take at least $65, 1000 to re- pair the State House, without expending one dollar for the specific uses of the library. The amount named for repairs does not buy 8 single desk nor single shelf. After the sum now called for is spent, an additional ap- proDriation would have to be made to fit up the interior for library purposes.
 Mir. English and his friends should put their hands in their own pockets, buy lot and put up building for the Historical so- ciety The public have furnished them free rent long enough. J. F. PHILLIPS.

GATARRH
eATARRH TO CONSUMPTION.

Catarrh in it's destructive force stands next to and undoubtedly leads on to consumption. It is therefore singular that those afflicted with this fearful diseass should not make it the object of their lives to rid themselves of it. Deceptive rem edies concocted by ignorant pretenders to medical knowledge have weakened the confidence of the great majority of sufferers in all advertised reme dies They become resigned to a life of misery rather than torture themselves with doubtful pallI atives.
 But this will never do. Catarrh must be met at every stage and comba ted with all our might. In many cases the disease has assumed dangerous symptoms. The bones and cartilage Of the nose, the organs of hearing of seeing and of tasting 90 affected as to be useless the uvula so elongated, the throat so infamed and irritated to produce constant and distressing cough.
 Sanford's Radical Cure meets every phase of Ca- tarrh, from simple head cold to the most loath- some and destructive stages. It is local and con stitutional- Instant in relieving permanent in curing, safe, economical and never failing.
 Each package contains one bottle of the Radical Cure, one box Catarrhal Solvent and an Improved Inhaler, with treatise; price $1.

From the South Norwalk Sentinell
 W. H. Hoyt & Sons steamer on Monday, dredging for oysters on one of their Norwalk plantations, caught 900 bushels of sea atars, probably the largest catch ever made in these waters in one day. For some time past they have been very much pestersd with these de- stroyers of oysters, and during the summer have caught from twenty-five to a hundred bushels day of them on their grounds in this town and Bridgeport. The oysters from which the stars were taken last Satur- day were removed from Bridgeport last sum- mer to get them away from the stars, but the plan has not proved successful. The Messrs. Heyt, however, fight their enemies persistently, and notwithstanding the i'm msnse destruction caused by them, save oysters enough to do . very lsras hFslness.

Stocks opened with fair degree of animation. while first prices were irregular, but generally higher, and after a little hesitation the market gathered strength and moved up fractionally. Rock Island, however, soon displayed marked weakness and the other grangers fell in behind. and on an increased business the entire list moved of, all the early gains being wiped out before noon. The af- ternoon saw stagnatlon among the majority of the list but the grangers still continued active and de- cllned steadily bringing the rest of the list down to the lowest figures toward delivery hour.
