The borough police are looking for
Jerry llriscoll, a young man with a bad
reputation, until recently employed as
bar-tender at Devine‘s saloon. adjoining
Lockwood‘s hall building on Wall street.
Yesterday afternoon Ill‘ret'oll, appar-
entiy sober, went into James Baddeu's
place, at the corner of Wall and River
streets. and called for a glass of soda.
After drinking it he engaged in conver~
sntion with the proprietor. first inquir-
ing how business was and then stating
that be had left Devine‘s and was going
back to batting. The conversation drift-
ed to the subject of Sunday liquor sel-
ling, Mr, Madden expressing his opinion
pretty freely concerning several saloons
that are said to be violating the law.
ltrisei-li finally became abusive, repent-
irig his oaths and threats after the pro-
prietor had requested him to use clrorcer
language,
llriscoll continued his abuse until Mr.
lladden came from behind the bar with
the intention of assisting the young man
out of the saloon. Driscoll throw off his
overcoat and bat and the men clinched.
Special officer Jones, who was in the. sa-
loon at the time, went out to look for
the police. What followed was told by
Mr. lladden to a SES‘rIb'l-Il. reporter this
morning.
During the melee Driscoll picked up a
heavy earthenware spittnon and struck
the proprietor vigorously over the head
With it, inflicting several ugly gushes. In
the struggle the spittoon came in con-
tact with a post and was broken into a
dozen or more pieces, cutting the back
of Mr. Hadden‘s liand. liis wife, hear.
ing the scuttle, rushed into the barroom
and found the two men on the floor, the
blood flowing freely frotir the cuts in her
husband's head and hand, saturating his
clothes and those of his combatant. Mrs.
lladden picked up a cluband struck Drie-
CoII two or three blows over the head.
He ran out of the saloon and turned into
Mechanic street, and has not since been
seen in Norwalk.
Chief Lockwood was notified of the
affair and a warrant for Driscoll’s arrest
was issued. Mr. 'lladden, who had'not
been feeling well, was taken seriously
sick after the fracas, but was able to be
about this morning. his head and hand
patched with court plaster.
It was learned last night that Driscoll
washed himself at Simond's foundry.
Later he bought a ticket at Winnrpauk
for Danbury. A man who saw Drrscoll
at the former place says his head is bad-
ly bruised, and that one of his little fing-
ers was nearly bitten off.
A dispatch from Danbury states that
Driscoll was seen in Danbury yesterday
afternoon. An officer was told that he
was in a saloon and as the policeman en-
tered the front door Driscoil made his
escape out of the back entrance. Noth-
ing has since been heard of him.

A BABY lll-ZSEBTI‘ZID.
l'lacerl In a \‘allaa and Left on a Train,
A peculiar case of desertion was
brought to light at the Grand Central
depot yesterday. The train-searcher for
the New York and New Haven Railroad,
while gorug through the. Springfield ac-
commodation train which came into the
(lrand Central Depot at 2.15 p.m., found
under a seat a long black valise. lie
carried it into the Superintendent's office
with the remark that it was very heavy.
One of the clerk‘s in the office opened
the valise, and there lay a little baby
looking up into his face with the calm,
unblinking eye of absolute innocence.
The young man nearly dropped the valise
in his astonishment, and a re ire of excit-
ed men were soon gathered about the in-
different young stranger.
The baby was examined and found to
be under the influence of opium. A hot-
tle of milk, which be had kept tightly
clinched in one chubby hand, was found
to contain a great deal of paregoric. Tire
baby, as soon as he got fresh air, round-
ed too and began to cry lustily. lie was
sent to Police Headquarters to Matron
Webb. The baby got air in the valise
because it was not tightly closed, some
of the little ones clothes being caught
between the Clasps. There is little possi-
bility of delrcllng the persons who do-
serted the child.

Illa Expcrlenca on a l‘lshlng Excursion
In florlda.
Several weeks ago E. F. Bouton, of
this town, went to Florida to learn some-
thing of the climate and see the beauties
of the Land of Flowers. After satisfy-
ing his appetite with plenty of choice
oranges the idea struck him that it would
be very pleasant to go on a day's fishing
excursion. Lie accordingly went to In-
dian Lake, Marian County, with fishing
tackle and plenty of bait. lie dropped
line and the only evidence he had that
there were any fish in the lake was an
occasional twitch on his line. When he
pulled the line out of the water he in-
variably discovercd his books bare. A
friend writes that Ed. caught no fish,
but had an experience that for a moment
made him wish he was in Norwalk
again. He had become tirpd and was
resting by having his elbows on his
knees. His chin was placed in the palms
of his hands, and in that position he was
gazing in the water, and possibly was
thinking of the people of Norwalk who
were experiencing some lively spring
weather. lie was suddenly alooused
from his reverie by a noise in the water
and looking in the direction of the sound
he saw a large alligator approaching
with its mouth wide open. Ed. was so
frightened that the quills ‘on a Southern
porcupine were nowhere as compared
with his hair. Ed. is no coward, but be
tremblingly edged his way toward the
woods, and as soon as he gained his self-
posaession he scampered for home as
fast as his legs would allow him. Every
grunt of the hedgehogs he heard on his
way sent a chill through his being, but
finally he came under the protecting care
of his uncle, Albert Mead. The folks
told Mr. Bouton that it was unusually
early for alligators, but whether early
or late the fright was the same. He says
he will commence eating oranges again
instead of going liming.

Nelson and Cal-Ill to Meet.
NEW Losnox, March 2l.—Jimmv Nel-
son yesterday received a letter from his
friends who are seeking to arrange a
match between him and Mike (labill of
Norwalk, stating that the latter’s backers
would not favor a fight for over 8500,
but would bcsatisfied to make the match
for a purse of 8500 basis and loser to get
something out of it, and on these terms
they would try to arrange matters. Nel-
son aignified his willingness that if the
match was arranged on a $500 the loser
should take 8100, and he so advised his
friends. It doesn't look as if Cahill’s
backers had much confidence in their
man,although he hears the distinguished
title of light weight champion of the
state. Jimmy Nelson is anxious to meet
Cahill, but thinks anything less than
8400 or .500 would not repay him for the
trouble and expense of preparation.

In speaking of the Yale Apollo (lice

The audience at Mechanics llait last eve-

Apollo and Banjo Clubs. It was a tri-
bute to youth. Everybody in the hall
was young. Staid matrons laughed with
their daughters at the old and new col-
lege songs and applauded everything.
The little skits of these students com-
manded nrore hand-clapping than the
greatest effort of a Festival primadotina.

go-rwyou-plme fun and bounce which
will always be in accord with the younger
portion of the audience. It depends al-
together upon the work of that notorious
small boy who pervades every locality in
one guise or another,and'whose presence
is always the signal for the infliction of
all the misery, iiit.it:-.l and physical,
which his practical jokes and . general
disregard of everybody's peace of mind
are sure to effect. The cast was well

Adams A Cook'- Company.
This company, which played a week's
engagement at Music Hall last season,
will fill the week of the 25th at the Nor-
walk Opera House. Tire company is un-
doubtedly one of the been on the road.
Playing at popular prices they fill the
houses wherever they go. An exchange
speaks of them as follows: A very large
audience witnessed the opening program
given the above company at Whitney's
opera house last night. The play was
“Monte Cristo." Adams & Cook have
always given the very best of entertain-
ments at cheap prices, but we are sure
that no play ever presented by them or
any other repertoire company in this
city could approach the high standard
of excellence that marked the perform-
ance last evening. Mr. Thos. E. Shea
showed wonderful skill, displaying rare
strength and precision. His performance
was vigorous and spirited and showed
the result of deep and conscientious
study. Little Miss Burnham had but
little to do, but did that little well. Her
sailors' lromspipe was a feature of the
evening and was loudly encored. Justin
Adams needs no introduction. Miss
Jewel Sheridan as Mercedes was very
strong and to her is due much of the suc-
cess of the play. Messrs. Varney and
Greene, old favorites here, were welcom-
ed back by rounds of applause, and play.
ed their parts as only they can. All the
other characters were in competent hands
and all in all it was the best general per-
formance ever given on this stage.
Zinnia 'vlnrh Operatic Concert Company.
A fair-sized audience saw Emma Juch
andher company at Music Hall last eve-
ning. In the cast as Marguerite Miss
Juch mode a most decided success. She
is an ideal Marguerite and carried the
part with an earnestness and feeling that
captivated the audience. The first part
of the program exceeded all expectations.
All the members of the company are
people world renowned in their profess-
ion. Sufficient is it to say that Music
Hall's walls never before resounded with
such beautiful music.

A STAMFORD MYSTERY
A Man's Body Found Near the Railway
Track—Not Identified.
The dead body of a man was discover-
ed in a ravine near the track of the Con-
solidated railroad, Wednesday, between
Riverside and Sound Beach. Medical
Examiner Jones was summoned and ex-
pressed an opinion that in all probability
the man met hrs death by being struck
by a train. The body is not bruised to
any great extent and there is therefore
something of an air of mystery about it,
The remains have been taken to Mead's
morgue, Stamford, land is now lying
there awaiting identification. The vic-
tim was well dressed and apparently in
good circumstances, though there was
no money in his clothes. Nothing has
been found which tends to identify the
body except the buttons on his trousers
which are marked [1. P. Hurlburt, Stam-
