John J. Farrell.

The death of Mr Farrell, at his home,
45l Pembroke street, East Bridgeport,
after suffering 10 days with pneumonia,
was sad news to many Newtown friends.
His father, Thomas Farrell of Brushy
hill, moved to the city, year and half
ago and John was employed with the
Holmes q Edwards Silver Co at the
time of his death. The family were con-
nected with st. Mary's church of East
End and Mr. Farrell was prominent in So
cial life there and member of different
social societies. The funeral, Monday at
10, was largely attended, many from
Newtown being present; Father Carroll
was celebrant of the mass, Father Toolan
deacon and Father Smith sub deacon !;
the interment was at St. Michael's ceme-
terry. Beautiful floral pieces were pre-
sented by the societies with which he was
connected and the pail bearers were COM
rades from among their membership.
Mr. Farrell was fourth son of the family
of nine0cbildren and was IS years and six
months old and, besides the bereayed
parents, these survive: Thomas p, James
j., Peter, Matthew. Misses Margaret,
Mary, Rose, Annie, all of whom are at
home except Thomas, who for some
years has been with E. J. Hall in his tin
shop in the Street.

The Newtown Library association, be-
sides having added about 100 volumes of
the best literature of the day to the al
ready well stocked shelves (now some
400 volumes), have bought one of the
best reference books of the times. the
Century dictionary. The growth of the
Library is very flattering and encourag-
ing to its promoters, chief among whom
are Prof and Mrs c. S. Platt and it is to
Mrs Platt's energy and enterprise that
the library is soon to have what has long
been needed, a catalogue in pamphlet
form. Enough advertisements have been
sold to pay for the printing and it will
not cost the library anything.

The long and bitter contest over the es-
tate of the late Andrew j. Peck, who was
murdered by Rudolph Stoeffel, June s,
1889, for which he is now languishing in
State prison, has come to an end in the
probate court, Judge Beardsley of
Bridgeport (who was called in in the
place of Judge Beecher) having decided
that Meta E. Shuart of Rochester, n.
Y, who claimed to be the child and only
heir at law of Peck is the only heir at
law and orders w. II. Glover, the admin
istrator, to pay over to her all the prop
erty. belonging to the estate after the
debts are paid. The case was commenc-
ed December II, 1899. and continued
from time to time to enable both sides to
take the testimony of witnesses in New
ork and Michigan. William II. Trench
ard of Wheeler, Steuben county, n. Y,
contested Mrs Shuart's right to the prop
erty, claiming that Andrew j. Peck was
not her father, thereby attacking her le-
gitimacy. The estate now amounts to
about $4,000.

THANKSGIVING

Has come and gone. The Governors
OF the States and the President of the
United States issued the usual proc
lamations, telling us in a general way
how much we have cause to be thank
full for, but none of them particulariz-
ed to any great extent; now it seems
eminently proper that a few of the
causes for general Thanksgiving,
this year above all others, be mention
ed,
1st, War with Italy has been happily
averted.
I'd, What was lastyear sand lot and
desert waste at Hawleyville is now
covered with building containing
one Of the choicest selections of furni-
ture to be found in the kingdom.
Sd, The President, his cabinet, Baby
Mckee, Jay Gould and Sara Bernhardt
have all, thus far, escaped the ravages
of small pox, the measles, and reduced
salaries.
4th, The familiar and care worn face of Mrs
Lydia Pinkham and the bald head of W Doug
lass have been superseded in a number of
papers by brand new advertisement Of pat
ent bug exterminator.
5th, Regular $40 roll top office desks are now
sold by Baker for $50 to $35 and economy in
high places encouraged by our three good Gov
ernors expressing a willingness to sit in one
chair.
9th, Unpleasant complications with Chilli now
seem in fair way of settlement and good extern
sion tables are shipped in all directions from
Hawleyville at 81 80 each.
9TH, A protracted session of our Legislature,
wherein not a single obnoxious law was passed.
9Th, public reading room in Bakers furniture
emporium at Hawieyville. where weary tr 1velers
may, with comfort, while away the waiting hours
between trains.
9th, Full enjoyment of religious liberties and
the rights Of citizenship
10th, The power Of the press, which never be-
fore exsrted such an influence in the land, par
ticularly in granger districts during the late
great vinegar" harvest.
11th, That Bakers advertisements are nc
longer than a quarter column and are only in
ficted once week.
12th, That,-that,- well this is all we have
room to enumerate and this is enough for one
Thanksgiving.

The fact that, for the last two or three years,
because of short crops in the West and conse-
quent difficulty Of making collections, while some
mortgage and trust companies have been forced
to the wall, this company's assets have been
constantly increasing, is evidence that investors
were right in their estimate of them as careful
and conservative; indeed, many of their largest
loans backed by second mortgage placed
by strong company. The abundant crops in
the West mean return of prosperity and lower
rates of interest soon. This company is about to
issue year 8 per cent. Debenture. Parties
wishing to avail themselves of the 10 per cent.
guaranteed Debenture will need to make an early

American Love of Natural Beauty.


In spite of the alleged lnateriaisln OF
our people, it is plain that the love Of
natural beauty is stronger i'll the more
ignorant classes than is common in the
European nations. It is rare in Scot
land, in Switzerland, in the Tyrol, to
see the natives of the region on the
mountains except for what may be
called business purposes-tIlat is, as
hunters or as guides. They do not
take their families and go up for pic
mic simply for the pleasure of the thing,
whereas the city visitor can hardly
ascend an American mountain without
finding a party of simple country peo-
pie there before him.
Grant that their demeanor is not
wholly esthetic-that they may carry a
hammer and chisel to carve initials on
the rocks, that they leave sardine boxes
about, that they even play a game OF
cards on tine very summit-no matter;
they are there. The chances are that
the expedition was proposed by the.
wife or daughter of the farmer or me-
chanic who nominally heads it. She
has a firm conviction, brought from
some earlier trip, that the top of the
mountain is "a slightly place, and she
is ready enough to contribute her best
doughnuts and mince pies for the cola
