Answered at Length.

Some seven years ago Rev. Benjamin Woolsey Dwight, D. D., an eminent Pres byterian divine and geneologist of note addressed, in the interest of American biography, an interrogatory to we'll known resident of East Norwalk sub. stantially as follows:
 Who was Mrs. Governor Fitch and where was she buried? Under date ot "Norwalk, Conn.,, February 3, 1885," Dr. Dwight's letter was answered, but not his inquiry, and the disappointed gentleman'f reply in one of our quarterlies ran thus ''Sic transit gloria mundi." "So soon pass out of human sight all traces of fam lily greatness in the very places where those who bore it's honors highest, carved their names the deepest" Dr. Dwight died few months since, but for the satis- faction of Governor Fitch's Norwalk de- scendants, and because of some local pride in the matter, the subjoined, in evi- 1ence of which there is positive authority, Is published:
 Mrs. Governor Fitch was Miss Hannah Hall of New Haven, Conn. Her father was Richard Hall, who removed about the time of his daughters birth from Middle town to New Haven and who died in that city two years after the marriage of his daughter to Governor Fitch. Her moth CTS maiden name was Hannah Miles, she having been daughter of Captain John and Mary Miles of New Haven. Her grand mother on her mothers side was an Alsop. Her brother Jonathan (Yale college, 1736) married Isabel, granddaughter of William Haynes and daughter of Captain Samuel and Isabel Hanford of this town, of the affinity if not an ancestress of the wife of ex-Postmaster Augustus c. Golding.
 Mrs. Governor Fitch lived to the age of seventy-seven and died at Norwalk in Au- gust, 1779. She is in all probability buried beneath the stone monument that covers her honored husbands remains in the East Norwalk cemetery.-Norwalk Ga

STATE POLITICS.

Comments from the State Press.
 The Connecticut National Guard is or dered into camp for eight days this year. As about one day may be allowed for go- ing and coming, which is nevertheless one of the necessary experiences of the work, seven days will be secured for actual camp life. This has been the practice in New York state for some years, and it is very acceptable to the soldiers who there go into camp by regiments instead of by brigade, as with us. No other state has so admira- ble an arrangement as Connecticut has at Mantle, and by this lengthening of the time in camp the full advantage of the drill and discipline incident to that phase of military experience will be obtained. Un- less some unexpected change occurs Gen. eral Watson will command the brigade in camp this year.-Bridgepor Standard.

Leclair of Liege, are preparing to build factory in Rhode Island for the manufacture of fine worsted yarns A large amount of capital will be invested in the enterprise, and many skilled workmen will find employment.

 the other Japanese.with appropriate fruits and flowers on the walls. Electric light only is used. The house contains
 some of the choicest works of art in Eu- rope. The Gobelins Don Quixote tapes tries are continued in the drawing room. In addition to several statues in the hall there is large strip of Beauvais tapestry representing "Agricultu1e," and four
 more Gobelins panels devoted to the "Sea- | sons." The Beauvais hangings on the
 staircase have for their subject the life of Christopher Columbus, a very appropriate subject for an American. household. All the chairs and sofas in the dining-room are covered with genuine Louis XVI needle l work. The cabinets contain a priceless collection of bibelots, Sevres, miniatures, l snuff boxes, etc., and the pictures (many Wouvermann, Teniers, Gerars, Dow, Jan Steen, Cabanel, Meissonier and Bonnst.

MRS. MACKAY,S NEW HOUSE.
The Most Gorgeous in London-A Staircase That Cost a Fortune.
 From inc Tahle


 Staircase That Cost Fortune.
 From the Table.l
 The London mansion of which Mrs. John A. Mackay, the American millionair- ess, has just taken possession, is one of the most remarkable in every way of those that cover the site of the historical Carl ton house. It was built originally by the third Duke of Leinster, and the present owner of the title sold it shortly after his succession to c. H. Sanford, a millionaire, whose ambition it was to possess the finest house in all London. MT. Sanford gave carte blanche alike to architects and deco rators. For over two years the work went slowly on, and just when their com pletion seemed at last to be in view the Barring complication intervened, and MT. Sanford found himself compelled to sur render the toy for which he had paid 80 dearly. The negotiations did not take Mackay, instead of MT. Sanford, became the neighbors of Panmure Gordon and Lord Pembroke.
 The entrance halls contain some of the finest decorative work ever seen in Eng land. The first has ceiling of blue and gold, while the walls are paneled with slabs of pink Soudanese marble, divided by statuary pilasters, and broken only by a fifteenth century Italian chimneypiece. The balustraded staircase of white marble in the inner hall alone cost @ small for tune. All the details of the Italian if teenth century carving are perfect, and the walls are covered with green and gold brocade and fine old tapestry. The doors
 Tl Y the doorwaYs of white statuary marble display the most delicate Raphaelesque de- signs Nothing could be more effective than the coffered ceiling, each 'scoffer" being filled with star-shaped flower, the petals of which are composed of pearl shells.

Cooling Him on.

From the Detroit Free Press.]
 In western newspaper office ten or & dozen years ago were two reporters, one a wiry little hot-tempered cuss, the other a great, big, numbering, .good-natured fel- low, whom the boys had a lot of fun with, participated in also by the hot-tempered chap. One day, after some monkey busi- ness about the office, Wiry resumed his labors and was soon, as was his won't en- grossed in his work, and that was not the time to disturb him. But the big fellow tossed paper ball at him and it fell on his desk.
 "Don't do that" he exclaimed angrily.
 The big fellow did it again with a chuckle.
 1T tell you not to do that" stammered Wiry, getting white with rage.
 The big fellow laughed and threw an other
 In an instant Wiry had caught up two pound paper weight from his desk, and, blind with anger, hurled it at the other mans head. It whizzed by him near enough to raise the hair, and almost bur jed itself in the plastered wall at his back. The narrow escape of his intended victim seemed to cool Wiry, and he sat down at his desk again and took up his pencil The big fellow hadn't said word, but the good nature had all gone out of his face. In about ten minutes he got up, and going to the wash room came back gently with a three gallon wooden bucket filled with wa ter. Very gently he slipped up behind Wiry and poured it all over him. Wiry was on his feet in second, wilder than ever, and dripping from head to heel. "Sit down." said the big fellow, quite good natured again. 'sSit down, you lit tie fool. You needed cooling off, and that water'll do it just right" Wiry had got his eyes cleared by this time and made break for his man.
 "Sit down, I tell you," said the big fel low, giving him whirl. "I couldn't kill you with that water if tried, but you would have killed me with that paper ! weight, and if you make another move I'll | choke the breath out of your body and | call it self-defense Seea" Wiry accepted the situation and the next day apologized.

YOTTTH AND BEAUTY.

unterestinr Life Of a Little Girl and
 the Secret of Her Beauty.
 The bright and beautiful child, whose face is shown below, is the little daughter of MT. and Mrs. E. A. Frear, who reside at 461 Fourth Avenue, Lansingburgh, N. Y- There is an interesting and touching story connected with this little girl.
 There probably never was more happy home than that of MT. Frear at the time this little child was born there probably was never one more miserable few months thereafter. Because of the i'm proper character of the food prescribed, little Helen failed in health, and when six months old she weighed the same as at birth. Another doctor came, and he, with the aid of pure food, saved this darling little baby.
Morning journal and courier., 1891-07-07

From the time her food was changed she began to thrive, and is now healthy, rugged child. The means employed to re- store her to health was lactated food-no- thing else and this is but one instance ln many where that food has rescued chil- dren who seemed even nearer death than little Helen.
 Mothers who wish to know more about this great food can receive copies of en- dorsements from the most eminent physi- clans in the land, together with pictures of many bright children whose lives have been saved by the food, if they will write to Wells, Richardson & Co.,, Burlington, Vt.
 The little story printed above should serve both as warning and encourage ment to all parents whose children are poor and puny, when they can easily be bright and happy.

HUT HE HAS SKIPPED.

The Man Responsible For the Fatal
 Disaster on the New England
 Road.
 As result of the investigation made by Coroner Mix into the railroad accident on the New England road, near Waterbury, by which Fireman Max Zell lost his life, he decided that the accident was caused by the carelessness of Operator Ktteridge. When asked if he would cause warrant to be issued for the arrest of Kitteridge, he said it would be useless, because he had skipped for parts unknown. Kitteridge was nineteen years of age and had been employed by the road week.

NEW YORK, July 6. There was an encouraging revival in railroad bonds and the sales reached S792 900, which the tone was f1rmer to strong throughout the day, resulting in some material advances in the list. The Atchison incomes again led in the dealings and furnished $1O6, ,0OO.
 Stocks opened with irregular changes and fol- lowed the leaders closely in tone, but the iuctua tions were without special significance as usual of late. There were realizations in the last hour on the fractional gains of the day, after the best prices had been held all day long through the dullness, and prices yielded slightly to the pres sure, but the movement went only littlo way. The market finally closed dull but steady to firm, generally at small fractions better than Fridays final figures.

MOntOweSe. July 6.-The praise service at the North Haven Congregational church last eve ming was largely attended and very en- joyable occasion. The music throughout was fine, especially the "Gloria in from St. Johns church taking the solo parts.
 The Fourth was celebrated in this will lage with the utmost quietude. R. o. Eaton and wife were invited guests at the opening of the Pequot club house at the Cove. North Hill appears to have been lively; the Tourists club and guests from the city. West Haven and North Haven held their regular annual picnic under the naples at the Biard Pierpont residence; the club caterer got up @ clam chowder, which was digested by a walk to Peters Rock. In the evening the party met at the residence of R. w. Banus and set off the fireworks which had been procured to wind up the occasion. It was pronounced a very successful cele- bration in all it's details.
 The North Haven grange will meet to- morrow night and a miscellaneous pro- gram will be given. The purchasing agent is expecting car of oats and bran.
 Charles Turner of North Hill is quite ill it is feared seriously so. Miss Katharine Dowd, after very suc- cessful season of missionary work in the south and an equally successful missionary tour through the central states, has settled down to enjoy the summer months at her mothers residence at North Hill.

Such is the Verdict of the Coroner
 Against Drew.
 The inquest on the death of Eddie Hat field, the young colored boy who was shot and killed on Goffe street, last Saturday, presumably by Allen Drew, was continued yesterday by Coroner Mix.
 The witnesses on the first day were Ed ward H. Jones, Rebecca Smith, Belle Flaw ley, Mrs. Hatfield, mother of the boy, and Officer George Taylor. At yesterday s ses- sion Johnny Mcclure, young man re- siding with Allen Drew, gave his testimony relative to the shooting done by Drsw,. as he was present at the time. Although Drew himself was summoned before the coroner he declined, by the advice of his counsel, to make any statement.
 The coroner gave his verdict upon the case which was that Hatfield came to his death through the criminal carelessness of Allen Drew. The maximum penalty for such cases is $1 ,O00 and ten years in prison. The minimum is $1 fine and one day in jail.
