FAIRFIELD'S HISTORIC
CANNON BALL.

The cannon ball found by workmen
while digging the cellar for our new
church was not British ball. 1t was,
beyond doubt, one fired from the sold
fort" or breastwork on what is now
known as Growers hill. On the 18th OF
July, 1873, after portion of the British
sh army had taken possession of our vii
lage, the guard at this sold fort" discov-
cred, by the use of a glass, Maj Gen Try
on in the spire of their church and, while
he remained there viewing the town and
surrounding country, they brought gun
to bear and (using the words of the Off
Ger in charge) "sent the general their
COMPLIMENTARY to which he
at once responded by seeking place of
greater safety. The finding of the ball
tells the accuracy of their aim.-CChurch

ST. ROSE, NEWToWN.
Entertainments of the Fair.

The entertainments given at st Rose
fair, Tuesday and Friday evenings, were
enjoyed by good audiences, st Patrick's
hall being well filled each evening. 1t
was literally packed, Friday night. The
songs and acting of young men of the
dramatic club, of which Lang brothers,
Simon Kelly and James Brown are lead
ing spirits, was not unlike that given at
the Foresters' sociable, some months
ago and brought forth rounds of APP
plause. About an hour was pleasantly
passed by the diversion afforded by their
songs and character sketches.
The program of Friday night was
more elaborate and, considering that but
weeks time for drill was had, the little
folks did admirably, under the able SUI
pervision of Misses Ella Lillis and Julia
Murray. The program given in last
weeks BEE was carried out, with the ex-
ception of the song of Mr. Brown, which
was omitted and "Reuben and Racher'
by Rosie Stuart, which was given in the
latter part of the evening and was done
in charming way. The different parts
of the program were taken by pupils of
the intermediate department at Sandy
Hook, some of which were given at the
festival of the Sodality Of the Children
of Mary, last May, but all did so well
that the repetition but added to the eff
feet. Specially noticeable numbers on
the program were ''Buy Broom" by II
little girls, each armed with tiny broom
and handled with dexterity 'Irish Fam
lily Financiering," laughter pro-
voking production, in which Arthur
and Annie Corbett were the actors; the
chorus was by so little girls, all in white
making pretty scene and the last tab
leau, in which six little girls personated
the three graces and other characters.
All voted the hour and half devoted to
the presentation of the varied program
treat rarely enjoyed.

1t is often very difficult to do people
any good. In the first place, it is hard
to find out the good they need done for
them. Promiscuous giving of money,
food, clothes, or even advice may do
more harm than good. To help and not
hinder often requires skill and judgment.
Is the man in want and discouraged?
He ought to be fed and cheered and as
sisted to find employment and friends.
Is he professional tramp and beggar,
deliberately choosing to eat another's
hard earned breadr He ought to be ar
rested and put to the treadmill of pub
lie economy. He is a thief and rob-
Der and, what is worse, abuses the char
ity of people who are too kind hearted to
refuse any for fear of turning away the
needy. When idle and well dressed
men saunter out of the city through the
country for the day and coolly pick up
their living as they go, we think that
people do well to question If it be chart
ty to give.-[O. o. Wright.

DIAMOND HILL, REDDING.

After an illness of about two months,
Frances j., wife of Edmund Olmstead,
entered the haven of rest, Tuesday even
ing, October 27, aged 50 years. TO her
loved ones and friends, who knew her
and cared for her in her late Illness, the
brightest, sweetest loveliest characters
one seldom meets. Her disposition was
winning and lovely and to know her was
indeed to love her. She came with her
husband from Chicago to her old home
here, last May, after an absence of sew
eral years and it seems great comfort to
friends and acquaintance here to re-
member that her last days were spent
among them. The funeral was held, Sat
urday morning at IL, at the old home
stead. Rev Mr. Jennings officiated. She
was laid in her last resting place in the
old family lot at the Umpawaug ceme-
terry. Mrs Olmstead was especially fond
of young people and made many friends
among them. The company of young
friends who camped with her at Compo
Point, last Summer, will not fail TO re-
member her bright and wnsome pres
ence among them and realize more fully
that"pleasant are the memories that can
never de- The bereaved husband and
friends have the sincere sympathy of the
community. Death seems, indeed, sad to
the living, but TO her, who has entered
the heavenly portals above, tits only
''As1eep in Jesus! peaceful rest! whose
waking is supremacy blest!" and the
loved ones may remember her as
"Ready to be freed from sorrow,
Tears and partings, tolls and pain;
Ready for the heavenly mansion;
Life is dear, but Death is gain.
Ready with the just made perfect;
Clothed in robes of white to be,
Swelling the enraptured chorus,
Singing joy and victory"
