From MT. Vaill.

PERSONAL GOSSIP OF INTEREST TO coNNEcrI-
 CUT PEOPLE.
 Executive Manager Vaill of the Connec- ticut board of worlds fair managers writes from Chicago as follows:
 John w. Hutchinson of the we'll known Hutchinson family of singers of other days was at the Connecticut building few days ago, and as he sat near the old clock on the stair landing he sang, at my invitation, Longfellow's O'Clock on the Stairs," to music composed by himself many years ago. (rhat old clock was very likely of Connecticut manufacture, for its owner, Thomas Gold of Pittsfeld, Mass, whose granddaughter was Mrs. Longfellow, was born in Cornwall in 1759 and graduated at Yale in 1778) MT. Hutchinson Is sn old man now, the only survivor of his family, but he retains his singing qualities to remarkable degree, considering his years. On the 17th of Junes he sang ''The Sword of Bunker Hill" at the Massachusetts state building, and at the dedication of the New Hampshire state building last week he gang ''The Old Granite State."
 Dr. George F. Root has home on Cor nell avenue, near the exposition grounds. spent an evening at his home recently, and had the pleasure of hearing him sing some of the popular war songs of his own composing-"Rally Round the Flag" 'Tramp, Tramp, Tramp" and the like. Dr. Root still sings with remarkable vigor for man of ssventy-two, and is charm ing man to meet. He was of Massachu- setts origin, but Connecticut can claim connection with his family, for his sister Mary, now Mrs. James Bidwell Peck, was organist of the Congregational church in Litchield during the writer's boyhood.
 The Rev. Dr. Hiram Eddy of Canaan has recently returned home after a ten days visit to the fair. Dr. Eddy stands about 6 feet inches in his shoes, and good deal higher than that in the estimation of his friends, is something over eighty years of age, and is said to be pretty good repre- sentation of an ideal love. There Is noth- ing mythological, however, about Dr. Ed dy. As captain of three months Con- necticut regiment he was captured at the battle of Bull Run (they say he had 8 musket in his hand at the time) and he was the first Union prisoner to darken the door of Libby prison. The last day the doctor spent in Chicago was partially devoted to Libby prison, which, as all we'll informed readers are aware, is now @ Chicago ex- hibit, and very interesting one. To no one, however, would 1t be more interest ing than to the venerable "wsr psrson" who was it's first victim

Court Notes.

The suit brought by John Brown against AL bert Adams to recover 6 board bill was to have been tried before Justice Cleaveland yesterday, but the defense confessed judgment. Attorney 0. O. Ford for the plaintiff, agreed to stay Of execution for four days to give the defense time to pay up.

Senator Jones Recalls the History Of

Washington, Oct. 25-There was
no quorum when the senate met to-
day. The repeal bill was taken up
and Pugh spoke against it. He
was followed by Stewart. Stewart
yielded to Jones who described the
relations of the working man to the
money question. He laid at.the
door Of a defective monetary svs-
tenn responsibility for the great
mass of unemployed and said that
the highest goal of civilization in
the nation would not be reached
until every man is kept busy.
In conclusion Jones says: "The

CLEVELAND Is VICTORIOUS.
Southern Silver Senators Surrender to
the Administration.
Senator Dubois Announces the Demo.
cratic Desertion Must Bring the
Contest to q Conclusion. :.

WdSnlnSCOn, OcG. L4.-OenaCOr
Harris, acting for the silver Demo
Gratis, to-day informed the silver
Republicans that the Democrats
had concluded, after taking all the
circumstances into consideration,
that their best course was to drop
the fight against repeal and allow
il to come to vote.
If this decision is not reconsid-
cred land it does not seem at all
probable it will beg the end of the
present fight will soon be reached
and the result be in accordance
with the presidents wishes and
those of the repeal forces of the
senate.
Dubois, of Idaho, who took
leading part yesterday in arrang-
ing for a continuation of the fight
against unconditional repeal, said
this afternoon vote would come
within a week. as there would be
no opposition or attempt at filibust-
ering. speeches which have been
begun will be finished" said Du-
bois, land such other speeches as
senators may desire to deliver. 1t
is understood Teller has something
yet to say and Stewart and Jones
desire to conclude their work.
Allen also desires to make some
further remarks.
"This morning Harris came to
me and said that he felt that it
was his duty after the assurances
he had given that he should in
form me that he would not con-
tinue the fight as suggested but
would yield to the pressure of his
associates upon the Democratic
side. He said he spoke tor the
silver men on that side.
~ told him if we could no longer
depend on the friends of silver on
the Democratic side we could no
longer keep up the contest, and
that vote might be taken after
the debate had closed, and that
there would be no more obstruc-
ton.
"The silver men will offer
amendments and debate them, and
will probably vote for all amend
ments which promise anything for
silver. 1t is impossible to say
when a vote will be taken but l
should say within a week."

account published in last weeks Ga
zErrE. Agent Shannon for Van Dusen
Il Co., was here last Friday, and after
commenting the excellent work of
the fire department, stated that the ell
evator would be rebuilt with the re-
opening of spring. In the meantime
Agent Caswell is making arrange
ments to receive wheat in the attached
building, and will be ready for the
same in about week. He is already
selling coal. AS soon as the insurance
adjuster reaches here and places a
price on the pile of ashes, smoked
grain, ETC., the debris will be removed,
the injured grain sold out as feed, or
for some other purpose, and every

thing placed in readiness for the new
building. The plans for the latter
have not been drawn, but it is under
stood that they will call for a much
larger elevator than theone destroyed.
Mr.. Caswell, than whom VanDusen &
Co. have no better or more fair agent
in their employ, will undoubtedly
continue to oct as agent.
In connection with the work of the
fire department the following bears
out the statement of the GAZETTE that
excellent work was done in saving the
attached building:
MINNEAPOLIS, March 3-W. r. Cas-
we'll, Agent-In recognition of the eff
ficient s,rvice done by the Volunteer
Fire Department of Redwood Falls,
we enclose, you our check for $50,
which you will please present to them
in acknowledgment of their services.
Yours truly,
G. w. VANDUsEN & Co.
1t is estimated that over 100000
gallons of water were thrown on the
elevator during the progress of the
flames.
Agent Caswell is suffering from a
very severe cold, as a result of his
work, and the excitement that fol-
lowed the burning, on the night of the
fire.

THE SHARKS ARE ON TOP.
Ju. &c Webber Finds Them Entitled
to Earth.

Judge Weber has filed several de-
cisions with Clerk of Court Byram
during the past week. The decisions
are in the celebrated tax title cases on
trial at the last term of court, and by
them the tax title sharks are recog-
nized by the law and nearly, if not
more than, thousand acres of land
are judicially wrested from the hands
of innocent settlers aud placed in the
hands of these sharks. The cases are
those, in foul of which Geo. w. Muir
ply appears as plaintiff and Nels San
dagger, Arne Loken, Lars Anderson,
John Welter and Henry Duscher, all
farmers, appear as defendants aud in
two of them Benz. Williams ct al ap-
pear as plaintiffs and Hugh A. Stewart
and w. j. johnson as defendants.
The Judge, in his decisions favoring
Murphy and Williams finds that the
lands in question were not described
in the tax list of 1879, and that the
county commissioners resolution des-
ignating the official paper was fled too
late. He also declares the certificates
issued to r. Bunn,a go-between-shark,
for 1879, to be void and also that the
tax sales of 1880 and 1881 are void.
He awards Murphy and Williams
costs and disbursements, aside from
Judgment giving them absolute pos
session and quieted titles to the lands.
