BIG UNION MEETING.
TContinued from first pagel

the situation and I would look out for
the young mans interest in the leg
| islature.
He then assayed 10 answer some Of
the free silver arguments, which
caused every Union candidate to reach
for his pencil and note book. But to
take notes under such eloquence and
power was impossible. He closed
with grand peroration on the
dignity OF manhood showing as Bobby
Burns would hit it that, frank is but
the guinea's stamp, the man is the
gowd for All that and All that"
quoting the language Of Shakespeare
in Mark Anthony's Grafton on Caesar.
''The elements were so mixed in him
that the whole world might stand up
and say that he was man." After
the enthusiasm of the audience for
this young genius had subsidized, the
Union candidates presented theirside
of the case and showed why they
would be in better shape il elected to
work for the people than would be
possible for any set Of men who would
be run such by bosses asJos. Simon or
! Brownell g. Co. Much amusement
was created when Mr.. Bents was
| handed the Statesman in answer to
his request fer the Repub-
lican platform as it could not be
found in the paper. Chairman
Rigdon came TO his rescue with
the CAPITAL JOURNAL which con-
tanned both platforms. The audience
seemed to appreciate the fact that II
''you do not take the JOURNAL you do
not get the news"
Mr.. Z. H. Flagg, gold Democrat,
closed the argument on the part Of
the Republicans and the wheels rolled
for StaytoH.
The meeting at this place was
opened by the chairman, who pre-
sented in his inimical manner the
solid arguments of the Union party.
He was followed by Mr., Bents, who
struck some sledge hammer blows for
retrenchment and reform, In order
to refute the sneering insinua.
tions OF Mr., Cummings that
the Union candidates haYe not
the interest of good government at
heart, Mr.. Bents read the tax list CT
the two sets Of candidate showing
that all the Republican candidates in
1887 paid but s39s, 10 in taxes in this
county, while the Union candidates
paid sl2ll,S3.
Mr.. Flagg followed for the Republl-
cans.
Flagg claimed that the prosperity
and phenomenal growth of the United
States was the result of the wise
management of this country by the
Democratic party, lead by Jefferson,
Jackson and the Democratic lights of |
our early history. His claim Is In
effect that the policy of the Republi-
can party brought the country |
to- the verge OF ruin until to
saye its exietence it became Deces-
sary for the Republicans TO drop BIZ
metallsm and adopt the long declared
principles OF the democratic party.
Mr.. Flagg is accused OF swallowing the
Republican party, and to the chagrin
OF his fellow candidates, FlagR winks
from the c0rner Of his of eye and says
the charge is not altogether false.
He agreed that the hard times set

The causes were natural and would
occur again in this century and Others
to come.
However he has hope now since the
Republican party has returned to the
principles OF the good old Democratic
party that good times will prevail.
He then extolled Cleavland for a few
moments after, which he took up the
bond question and soon convinced
his audience that he did not know all
about the bond issues Of our country.
After abusing Secretary Kincaid for a
quarter of an hour, he sailed into the
acts Of the Republicans and scored
the party on its legislative record
and promised better deeds while he
holds the helm and no doubt Mr.
Flagg is sincere and will do all in his
power to become an honored and
radient leader Of the party over which
he has assumed guardian ship.
Twas hard medicine for his
colleagues but they had TO take it and
make the best Of 1t, as Mr.. Flagg in
sisted upon holding the floor for
almost the entire time Bro. Cum
mings had but little time, still it was
ample for he had not recovered fully
from his morning and afternoon
blunders. A rapid introd duction and
systematic choking off OF oandl-
dates followed and the audience con-
graduated itself that the affiictiou
for Stayton was for two years at least.

SOLDIERS BENEFIT TONIGHT,
Performance at the Wonderland for the
 Hospital Fund.

A deed of charity is always good one, and there is no denying that char ity is needed at home just now to re- lieve the soldiers at the hospital. The emergency fund, as General Merwin says, has been generous, and with the few contributions remaining due and the proceeds of the benefit at Manager Polls theater tonight will be adequate for the present needs.
 The benefit performance will be given this evening at the Wonderland theater beginning at 7:30 o'clock and as it is a continuous show, the busy man who cannot sit out the evening, can find a pleasant half hour in watching one or two of the acts. There is no objection to anyone exceeding the regular price of admission on this occasion, and a bill for a ticket will be very acceptable to the fund. General Merwin's agent will be present to take the receipts.
 It is hoped that the patronage will be generous and that the soldier boys will obtain a substantial benefit.

OBLTUARY.
Death ofNrrs. Harriet rr. TuttIe.

Mrs. Harriet M. Futile, widow of Ja- cob P. Augur died at the home of her son, Dr. J. H. Augur, at the corner of Grand avenue and Ferry street, at 7:S0 o'clock yesterday morning from a com- plication of diseases. Her life was a long and peaceful one, and she lived and died esteemed and honored. The deceased was one of the best known residents of Fair Haven and had lived in that section of the city for over half century.
 She was the oldest living member of the Grand avenue Congregational church, which she joined in 1880. Pre- Viously she, at the age of fifteen, joined the old North church, this city. Mrs. Augur was eighty-four years of age and had been an invalid for several years. She was sorely afflicted with a number of ailments, but bore her suf- ferings with great fortitude. Her pa- rents were among the early settlers in Fair Haven. She was the last repre- sentative of the original Futile family, and leaves first cousin, Captain Eze- kiel Futile, who resides in this city, having very recently come here from Virginia.
 Mrs. Augur was married January 15, 1884, in this city, and her husband died nineteen years ago to-day. He was prominent in commercial life and was one of the first Fair Haven men to real ize the advantages of the Baltimore oyster trade.
 Mrs. Tuttle's funeral will take place tomorrow afternoon at o'clock, and the interment will be in the Union cem- etery.

Before he died he told the hospital authorities that he had sister, Anna Kelley, liv- ing at No. 1855 Hawthorn street, Hart ford, but telegram sent to that ad- dress was returned with the explana- tion that there was no such number on the street mentioned.

Stands Solid With the Boys for Re-
 Election.
 Under the above heading last even- ing's Meriden Republican says: 'The East Side Social club is for Ernest Leigh for selectman, but with a pro- viso.
 "A Republican reporter was informed to-day upon good authority that a meeting of the club was held last even ing and it was the unanimous vote of the assemblage to stand for Leigh if he would promise a certain MT. Lynch the position of sealer of weights and measures.
 "The same party also told the repor- ter that J. J. Anderson is doing the strategy work for Leigh and is prov ing himself a hustler. His first lieu tenant is James Kane and a great amount of work is being done in the Second ward for Italian votes.
 "The Leighites have made house to house canvass on the East Side, and are following it up throughout the city Leigh is solid over East, as the state road appropriation he secured there immensely tickled the farmers. "'What is MT. Anderson after?'" is the question heard on all sides. It will be remembered that when Tomlinson was out for sheriff before, and was elected, Anderson was after the deputy office. Hen Downs was after it, too and got there a little ahead of him. Now whether the ex-postmaster wants the office provided Walter Leigh is elected, remains to be seen. His friends are reticent on the subject, and so is MT. Anderson. In the meantime, he keeps on building the selectmans s fence, saws wood, and says not word for publication)."

SUCCESSFUL CRAB HUNT

At Branford Point-One of the Party
 Injured.
 George W. Swift, Fred w. Wiswall, Bert Tupper and William M. Watson, guests at the Branford Point house, composed a grabbing party that on Tuesday evening secured 116 crabs. When returning home MT. Swift was using a bottle as hammer in an effort to repair the crab net, which had been broken. The pounding caused the bot tie to break and a portion of it fell on MT. Swift's foot. He was barefooted and the glass struck the foot in such a way as to sever three arteries. The wounds bled profusely and the injured man was weak from the loss of blood when the hotel was reached. Medical aid was secured and the wounds were dressed. He was much improved last night and took an active part in crab supper which quite number of the ho- tel guests enjoyed through the kindness of the fishermen.
