Waterbury evening Democrat., 1892-12-27

THERE is going to be some lively if nancial music. in congress when it gets together again, but it is not yet certain pressure for suspension of the pur- chase of the i, 300, ,000 ounces of silver bullion, which the secretary of the treasury is compelled under the Sher- man law to buy every month, is enor- nous. Mir Harrison and his entire cabi- net favor the suspension, and, it is said, that Mir Cleveland has also said to more than one democratic congressman that it ought to be stopped. Letters by the hundred are received at the treasury de- partment every day, from merchants and bankers all over the country, urg- ing the immediate suspension. It can not be suspended, except by action of congress, and the attempt to bring about that suspension, either by the passage of Senator Hills bill for an out right repeal of the Sherman law, or by the adoption of Senator McPherson' s resolution authorizing the president in his discretion to suspend the purchase of silver bullion, will be the signal for the music to begin. The free coinage men say they do not propose to allow any suspension of the purchase of bul- lion, unless d free coinage bill be passed.

has been brought about h-- me introduction of CoTToLENE, the new vegetable shortening. The discovery of this product, and the demonstration of it's remarkable qualities, has attracted the widest interest. Hitherto the common shortening has been lard, or indifferent butter. Every one has probably suffered occasional dis comfort from lard-cooked food; while it is well known that thous- ands are obliged to abstain entire ly from everything of that kind. To such people, CoTToLENE is of peculiar value, widening as it does, the range of what may be eaten and enjoyed. CoTToLENE is cooking marvel. It c0md1NcS with the food-imparts to it a tempting color, a delicate flavor, and an appetizing crispness. No trace of greasiress remains to offend the taste, or disturb the digestion.
 COTToLENE is worthy of the careful notice of all those who value good food, of itself or for its hygienic properties.

BELATED BOATS.

A MixIng-Up of the Margaret and
the Sunshine - Delayed Several
Hours.
The excursionists of Christ Episcopal
church had to wait at Belle dock about
three hours yesterday morning for the
steamer to Pawson park and as a conse-
quence were very much disguised over the
affair. The matter is explained by the
company in this way: The steamer Sun
shine took a party from Saybrook Monday
evening on moonlight sail. 1t arrived
at the Saybrook dock at 1:3O yesterday
morning. The Sunshine was to have
taken the Washington avenue Baptist
Sunday school of Bridgeport to Pawson
park. This was impossible, 80 the Mar
garet took the place of the Sunshine and
went to Bridgeport, the agreement being
that the Sunshine should take the place of
the Margaret and make the trip to Pawson
park and Pot island. The Sunshine was
detained by a heavy fog in the sound and
reached Pawson park about 10 O'Clock. In
the meantime the Margaret had brought
the Bridgeport party to Pawson park, ar
irving there about lao. It then came
up to this city and took the waiting and
exasperated excursionists down to the
park. 1t then made the regular trips and
the Sunshine took back the Bridgeport
excursionists.

This is the busiest season Woodmont

does not interfere with the comfort and
enjoyment that obtains from Mr.. Chap
mans large cottage, all along the coast to
the picnicking grove at Merwin's Point.
More than ever before has this beautiful
little spot, cooled with the salt breezes
from the sound, been appreciated as sum-
mer resort by people from New York and
other metropolitan cities. The Bonsilene
is crowded and the Pembroke is run at its
fullest capacity.
Almost every cottager has a rowbost,
which in the shallow water can be used
even by children with perfect safety.
Though rowing and bathing are the chief
amusements. lawn tennis by the sea, so
often celebrated in romance, is an actuali-
