A Pretty Wedding at the Borough lisp-
tlat church Last Evening.
The little Baptist Church that faces
the green in the borough overflowed
with people last evening on the occasion
of the marriage of Miss Emma A. Burr,
daughter of ex-Selectman Charles A.
Burr, to Edward J. Simone, of South
Norwallr. The ceremony was performed
at 8 o‘clock by Rev. Robert McGouegul.
The bride was attired in it becoming
traveling costume, and carried a large
bouquet of flowers. Flowers and potted
plants also adorned the pulpit platform.
W. B. Wardwell. J. E. Slater, E. L.
Brush and Edward Cliasmar officiated as
ushers and a sister and brother of the
groom acted as bridesmaid and best man.
Ernest Ambler presided at the organ,
playinga wedding march as the bridal
party entered the church. There was
no reception. A large number of beauti-
ful presents were displayed at the bride's
home, where many of her friends called
to insprct them. Later in the evening
Mr. and Mrs. Simona were driven to
South Norivallr, where they boarded the
10:15 for New York.
Need of Improvement.
At the annual school meeting held
Tuesday evening, E. A. Woodward offer-
ed aresolution authorizing the district
committee to expend a sum suflicient to
have the Franklin street school yard turf-
ed or sown with seed. The resolution
caused considerable discussion but the
recommendations suggested by Mr.
Woodward were voted down. Since the
meeting, however, there seems to have
been a decided change in the sentiment
of the people upon tilesubject. Anyone
can see that in its present state the
school yard is an eyesore to the com-
munity and all admit that a green plot
in that part of the city would be an im-
provement that would be admired. The
principal objection to Mr. Woodward’s
plan was that, with the number of CIIIId'
ren who attend the school, it would be
impossible to keep the grasa without
being trampled upon.
We understand that the committee are
considering the proposed improvement
and that in the near future the Franklin
street school premises will present a
different appearance than a surface of
yellow clay, such as is now the case.
South Norwalk has no public park to
boast of. Let us at least have one piece
of public property that can be looked
upon with pride.
Very Base Ball.
The annual game of Base Ball between
the Wall and Main street nines of the
borough was played yesterday afternoon
on the Fair Grounds, and very base ball
some of it was, too. About 100 specta-
tors watched the game with profound
div-gust, and applauded the brilliant er—
rors, made by the players. The battery
for the Wall streets was Mead and Darby
and for the lllain street Russell and Hall.
They did effective work,but the Main
street nine was weak in the field, and in
the knees, from excessive running after
the ball. ‘ew hits were made on either
side. Following is the score by innings:

1 In a brace of local newspaper men
the other evening sipping Apolllnaris
water in a popular up town cafe, and was
deeply interested in their conversation
because of the many phases of newspapv
or life it revealed to me. One of them,
a man of ripe experience in the field of
journalism, said: "No one knows better
than the newspaper man how few people
are able to tell the truth. This is not
from a proper'utty for lying, but from
sheer lnability to appreciate the value of
accuracy. Nine-tenths of the inaccura-
else in newspapers arise in this way.
People exaggerate, distort and pervert
facts, and then the navaaperaaad news
paper men are blamed because they tell
artery at it Is told to them. There is
not a reporter who has not spent many
hours trylng to get a grain of truth. and
often to had la the end that that suppoa
ed grain of truth was an error."
"Ir his mistake," he continued. “to
suppose that the newspaper man person-
ally cares a continental about people's
affairs; but he must find something to
quench the insatiable thirst of the public
after news. When [he rings your front
door bell and asks for the particulars of
a wedding, a fire or a fight, he has no
personal motives, but is simply doing his
duty as a reporter, and should be treated
considerately. It doesn't pay," my friend
added, “to snub the newspaper man. As
a rule they are as clever a lot of fellows
as you meet anywhere."
I WANT to say a good word for the
the little ladies who answer our “belles"
over Norwnlk's network of telephone
wires. To respond to 1,000 or 1,200 calls
a day. as they sometimes do; to
listen to the comments, criticisms and
curses of as many people, would drive an
ordinary mortal mad. But their voices
are its sweet and melodious in the morn-
ing as at midnight; their temper never
ruflled and their energies seemingly nev-
er taxed. Such good nature as theirs is
indeed phenomenal.

“Thc New York Press of last. Sunday
contained a yarn from Norwalk purport-

of a local ladies’ canoe club. A gentle-
man remarked on Monday; ‘The corres-

of whole cloth. There is no such thing
as a ladies' canoe club here and it never
has been thought of, and the friends of

as flirting with Col. Roberts’ cadets, are
It's all
well enough to get a joke on the men,
but when it comes to such Rings at
young ladies of eminent respectability
and high social standing, it is small busi-
ness.’ The society columns of the same
1 issue also contained a long string of items
that had appeared in the Gazette and
other local papers months before. But
such is the “enterprise" of metropolitan
journalism. The Sunday World, too,
with its big Connecticut edition of stale
news, sensational rubbish, and snobocrn—
tic society drivel, enjoys a large sale no-
. doubtedly, at a sacrifice of public confi-
dence in its reliability as a trustworthy
disseminator of intelligence. It is hard-

bought solely for its sensational fiction
by readers who, when they want reliable
information, buy some other paper.”

PAST SAILING TIIE,
As the yachting season is again near
at band and the fast sailing time of the
celebrated dyers will become the subject
matter of discussions and arguments. it
is interesting torefer to the fast time
made by the yacht Palmer in October of
the year 1805. The yacht was then
owned by Capt. [leper of Stonington.
who was one of the most enthusiastic
yachtmen of the time and the owner of
some of the best yachts ever afloat. The
trip above referred to was made from
Hoboken. N. J., to Stonington in 7 hours
and 45 minutes. At one point in the
voyage a speed of 25 miles per hour was
attained. Captains lexander 8. Palm-
er, John R. Stivers a . Joseph E. Smith,
who were aboard of the yacht at the
time, are at present residing in Starring-
ton. and although they are all "old sen
dogs," they are willing to admit that the
time made as above was the fastest over
accomplished by a sailing vessel. Capt.
Smith was sailing master at the 111119,
and although he is now over 80 yc‘rs of
age, a merry twinkle came to his eye as
he told the incident of the trip, which
was made in almost a gale of wind from
a favorable quarter, and be dead his
narration by saying that “when they
beat the time made on that passage!
will try again.
