Browski Died of Drink.

Immediately upon Deputy Coroner A. M. Tallmadge's arrival from Bridgeport, Friday, he and Dr Smith, medical exam incr, viewed Reinholt Browski's body at Wilson's undertaking rooms Gan autopsy was not deemed necessary) and proceed ed to Iattertown. John B. Nichols, who last saw Browski alive and who first found him after death, was examined by the deputy, who also questioned John B.'s daughter, Chauncy MeCarty and others. Tallmadge's previous opinion of death from alcoholism was fully confirm cd and a verdict rendered accordingly.
 Although seldom called by his Christ ian name, his name was Reinholt. The surname remains unknown and the death certificate grants burial to Reinholt Browsli. The interment took place, Fri day. The expense, which was borne by the town, will be liquidated, as far as possible, by the proceeds of sale of Browsld's effects. It is not known that he had either friends or money in Amer lea, though Hattertown people claim to have heard him boast that he had money but would not use 1t,
 Some have thought that Browski was dead when he arrived at Nichols's, last week Wednesday night, but Tallmadge says he was probably stupidly drunk and life did not depart until late in the night. Remembering the frequent deeds of blood in lIattertown, many people are inclined to look with suspicion on Browski's death; but nothing has been found to warrant such a suspicion. A hard drink CT, returning intoxicated from Bridge port, was exposed to the night air and, before the morning came, passed, prob ably without awakening, from the sleep of beastly drunkenness to the sleep of eternity.
 Leaving wife and two children in Poland, Browslzi deserted from the Rus sian army and came to New York in '72 or '73. He worked on gravel train, then drifted down to Mexico and back, finally landing in Easton, where he mar ried Widow Lynch and lived with her about two years; she died, this Spring and Browski drank harder afterward. He had rented the old Abel Peck place in Easton of Mrs Charles Morgan and was to have moved there. Browski claimed to know where the gun was hid with which A. J. Peck was killed.

Rev J. P. Hoyt's Fifteenth Annual

During his pastorate here, it has been Rev Mir Hoyt's custom to give an annual sermon, reviewing the condition of the church during the year gone by. The 18th annual, given last Sunday, was rather more comprehensive than usual and included a brief review of the changes in the town, during the past de- cade and half, as we'll as in the Con gregatiOnal church and society.
 His text was II Corinthians, XII, ?:
 '1 knew man in Christ above IA years ngo;"
 The theme, The Christian Family and the changes therein. "When l first came to Newtown," said Mir Hoyt, ''people told me that 1t was dull, dead town. But I soon saw evidences of awakening from that deadly sleep.n He spoke of the building of the church, of the hotel, of stores and dwelling houses and hinted that new paint for the Congregational church, for both interior and exterior, would be an acceptable improvement, Continuing, he spoke of St. Rose church, of the BEE, of the new railroads, with the new and handsome depots, which connected Newtown with the outside world. He prophesied that NewtowI would yet become to Connecticut what LenoX Is to Massachusetts. "Let the moneyed men of Newtown rear for them HtlNtH more satisfying than shafts of marble ol granite. Let them lay out drive around our beautiful Taunton lake; erect a H. brary building; secure funds for the Con gregational church or Sunday school He gave greetings to all members of tn, Academy, of which he was principal fol seven years.
 Turning to church work, he said thai obituaries had been spoken at the deati of l40 persons, the oldest 97 and the youngest r. Into every home but ono in the village, Death had entered during the l5 years and more than 1000 deaths had occurred in the town. At present the average attendance at both church and Sunday school was greater than li years ago and there was a large infant class at Sunday school. During these IL years, 150 persons had been received into the church and over 100 marriages per formed.
