It was plainly said by the minis ters of the gospel that the mayor should be made to resign and leave town. It was asserted that lie was a disgrace to South Norwalk. The denunciations were applauded. The Rev. Mr. Barnes, of the Motho- dist Society, preacliod from a text foun ded on the Seventh Commandment. Ho said that a worse example for young men to follow would bo hard to find. He added that the evidence submitted by the counsel of tho mayor’s wife in her suit for divorce was simply shameful. By it ho justly divorced himself from all claims to tho respect of tho citizens of South Norwalk. Rev. Gerald H. Beard, of the Congre gational church, took for his subject ‘•Tho Purity of Our City’s Homes.*’ Ho presented in a clear, refined manner tho story of the misdoing of tho mayor, and made a strong plea for morality in politics. When the eloquent young divine had finished, Charles E. Jennings, a New York banker, whose borne in in Norwalk, arose and said that he was glad that one man at least in tho town was not afraid to express himself plainly. He asked Mr. Beard to call a meeting of the men present to bo held in the parish room to take a vote on tho question of requesting Mayor Lockwood’s resignation. TTio meeting was held. The resigna tion was requested. Mayor Lockwood forwarded his resig nation to the board of councilmcn the next day, and at a meeting held at night it was promptly accepted. Lockwood has gone sonth.

Politics Take a Back Seat for the N'oni and ths War Horses of All Parties Joiu in tlio Grauvl IV-stlvl- Blooiungton, Ill., Nov. 23.—One of tlio most interesting, significant and unique weddings which ever occurred in Illinois, was solemnized Tuesday night, the parties being Mr. Lewis Green Stevenson, the only sou of Vico President Stevenson, and Miss Helen j Louise Davis, the elder daughter of Mr. William O. Davis, a prominent citizen of Bloomington. The most 'interesting feature of the event is that Mr. Davis is the editor and owner of the Daily Pantograph, a radi cal republican newspaper, which has for quarter of a century opposed Mr. Ste venson and his party with all its might id influence. There never was a move striking example of tho saying that there politics in love. Tho bride and groom havo been friends from childhood and the wedding was prophesied a year ago. Both of the young psoplo are na tives of Bloomington, and no two of the city's inhabitants are more highly es teemed than they. No tiling marred tho perfection of the plans for this brilliant event save tho weather. Ideal Indian summer of Mon day was succeeded by a blinding storm, which whitened tho streets and later filled tllem with slush. Tho city was filthy, and tho carriage wheels threw mud in all directions as tho guests wend ed their way to tlio church. This was tho second wedding in Bloomington ot‘ vice presidential interest and the second of that nature of which tho name of Dav:- md figured. Three years ago Mir; . co Davis, cf this city, grand- dau^ r of David Davis, former acting vice president of tho United States, was married here to Dr. E. Wyllys Andrews, of Chicago. The bride of that event and the brio f >day are not related. Th:.- . .ig brought together a com pany su;,...-r in its make up from a po litical point of view. Old war horses of Democracy and heroes of many a Re publican campaign threw aside their weapons as they approached tho alter of hymen and tho turmoil of politics was forgotten in the sunshine of cupid’s presence. Secretary of the Navy Her bert and his charming daughter were among tho guests. Governor Altgeld and wife, of Illinois, and ex-Govemors Fifer and Oglesby and their children wore conspicuous in the assemblage. PyiUical fiiiL rences and bitter partisan thoughts were east aside, and in the homo of tho Republican journalist Dem ocrats, Republicans, Popuiiits and Pro hibitionists were as one happy family. thousand invitations were sent out for the ceremony at the church, and the building was filled before. 8 o’clock, the hour for tho service to begin, and hundreds had gathered about the church to witness the arrival of the bridal party and tlio guests from abroad. The Rev. Mr. Mueller, pastor of the church of the bride, pronounced the words that joiued the two young lives. It was the modified form of the Episco pal ring ceremony* which is usel by the Unitarian church. When the question was asked, ‘-Who gives this brideV” the father of the bride arose from his seat among tho relatives and replied, “I do.” The impressive and beautiful ceremony ended, Dr. Kane delivered a prayer, asking the Almighty to pour His bless ings upon the husband and wife and grant them health, long life and happi ness, here and hereafter. The wedding service ended by the recitation of the Lord’s prayer by the bridal party and the congregation, a beautiful custolh of the Unitarian church. A reception was held at the home of the parents of the bride immediately after the ceremony at the church. Out In Jersey City. Jersey City, N. J., Nov. 22.—All switchmen, to the number of 50, em ployed on the Lehigh Valley are on a strike in Jersey City, completely paralyz ing freight traffic. THURSTON REMAINS, Although Hie t i Uv D« |» :r m ::t S-.ys He Has Acted Jn-ii-u-rectJy. Washington, Nov. 23. — Minister Thurston, of Hawaii, will net likely re ceive lii3 passports, although it was said at tho state department that there was abundant grounds for such action. Was it in any other country, or in this coun try, under any other circumstances, his passports would be issued immediately. It is not denied that his' letter is a breach of uiplomany and amply suffi cient to warrant this government in im mediately severing all relations with the Hawaiian mi nster. Such action would bo taken but for the reason that the American people might not think it was fair play; that the right of any man to take and giv liis side of the controversy is always con ceded, anl to force Mr. Thurston to leave this country would be considered by the people as a disposition not to ailow the other side a hearing. The department chooses to consider the publication as a statement by Thurs ton, a vitally interested party, in tho outcome of the Hawaiian affair, and not tho statement or tho Hawaiian min ister. The publication referred to is an inter view given out by Minister Thurston, in which ho attacks the report of Mr. Blount, and charges incorrect statements regarding the < o mection of Thurston with the overthrow of tho Hawaiian STRANDED FOR Fair Left; I\ Chicago, Nov. 23.- high social position in ! here last May v; Woman’s building, niless and friendles trying to secure moan3 return to tlieir homes.

Several society women have been try ing to devise some means of assisting these unfortunate exhibitors, but so far none of the officials connected with the fair havo taken any interest in tho mat ter. One woman, in speaking of tho case, said: “It is a stigma upon the women of the country that these unfor tunate visitors should be left unassisted under the circumstances.” WARREN LOTT. C. E.
