‘ John Hoffman, a big, brawuy German
employed by Noah Wood, was a prison-
or before Justice Austin last night to an-
swer to two charges of assault preferred
by John Novella and John Connolly.
Connolly had his left arm in splinters
and Nevslls carried a shorbhandled
pitch-fork, which, be alleges, was the
weapon Hoffman used in his assault up
on them. Hoffman, according tothe
story of the complainants, was at work
on Ifr. Wood’s farm in East Norwalk
Tuesday afternoon.
It was late in the day and as they pass
ed by the field where the German was at
work they saluted him with some such
remarkss "Hello, Dutclry, why don't
you knock off work i” Hoffman
replied with an oath, the com»
plainants say, and started toward
them, pitchiork in hand. When he
reached the roadway he raised the fork
ma threatening attituder Novella ad
ranced, grabbed hold of tho implement
ind after a struggle, wrenched it away
from the man. Hoffman then picked up
a piece of fence rail and made for Coo
nelly. Connelly raised his left arm to
defend himself and received a blow be
tween the elbow and shoulder which
broke his arm. The fracture was set by
a South Norwalk surgeon and yester-
day both Connelly and Nevells swore
out a warren: for the arrest of their so
reliant. Asthe trial was likely to con-
-umo considerable time, Lawyer Bey
mzrur, counsel for the prisoner, asked to
one the case adjourned until March 1,
Which was granted. Hoffman's counsel
holds that Nevells and Connolly were
really the aggressors and that his client
was defending himself from their so
raults. He proposes to produce Witness-
rri to show this when the case comes to
trial.

the following:
loud moans and cries of distress
aroused occupants of the large block of
tenements, known as Ely'a block, just
cut of Hacker‘s new building on White
street, at an early hour this morning.
Officer Brady was called, and, with
Ofllcer 'hitlls, made an investigation.
They found Edward Neary, a batter, ly-
ing upon a heap of rubbish in the small
yard at the rear of the tenement. Nearv
was evidently suffering great pain, and
had lost considerable blood from a trip-
ing wound upon his head.
It was With great difficulty that the
officers succeeded in gsltmg him to tho-
‘taiion house, as be was unable to stand
alone, and any exertion seemed to cause
him great pain. ’ ,
At the station Dr. Barnum was sum
mound. He found that Henry had cost
tamed a severe scalp wound and a ser-
ousinjury to his back and side. There
were also evidence of internal injurie.
and the physician deemed it advisable to
remove the man to the hospital. It i-
tbuught today that he has sustained in
terosl injuries which may prove fatal.
although it has been impossible to deter
mine whether or not, he will recover.
Neary is a South Norwalk man and
has been in Daubury several weeks. I!-
was with a man named IicSpiriett last
night in rooms on one of the upper stor
ies of Ely'a block. According to tin
rtory of those who were with him, in
went out onto the back stoop and miss-
Ang his footing fell to the ground, a dis-
tance of about twenty feet.
The neighbors say that the men were
quarreling and fighting all night and
there is an equal probability that he was
thrown off the stoop in a drunken brawl.

Editor of Tris Bsmisuz-I wish to
call your attention to an unique sample
of modern justice as illustrated by a
modern J ustice of the Peace in the town
of Norwalk. A few days ago, two men.
at the closing upof business transactions
between them, disagreed in their con-
clusions, as sometimes happens. There-
upon, one oi the parties brings suit
against the other, summoning him to
appear for trial before Justice Ifaples,
editor of the Norwalk Hour, on Febru-
ary 24th.
In the very next issue of the Hour,
edited by said Justice Maples, some blue
or ten days before the time of trial,thsre
appears, in the editorial columns, the
following dignified and judicial article:
- Till ROAD 1'0 HOBBS.

' some machinery for
$hay, and last week he did a job
me not: Gregory, of Norwalk. Mr.
Vsrfiri was to press the bay for 81.50 per
ion and Gregory, Verlin says, was to
board his two men and horses while the
work was in progress. The men worked
portions of ioiir days and when the job
was finished Veilin packed up his traps
and presented his bill for pressing nine
teen tons and a fraction, the amount
being 828.63. Mr. Gregory looked over
the items, saw that the figures were cor-
rect, and then presented a hill against
lfr. Verlin for board, lodging and horse
reed amounting to $35.50. Mr. Verirn
was as surprised as though he had been
caught in one of his own presses and
Mr. Gregory, noticing this, generously
.greed to settle for one dollar.
When Mr. Verlin got his breath be
named to the proper officials and a little
rater Mr. Gregorv's pressed hay was at-
tached by an officer of the law. The
case Will he tried one week from next
Monday.
It would seem that defendant Gregory
might as well surrender his case at once,
without the formality of any further
trial. At all events, the case seems III
~iave been decided by Justice Maples
urneor ten days before the time fixed
ior trial. This is truly a “summary pro
cess." The old Dutch justice used to
near the plaintiff's evidence, and then
give lrisdecision without waiting for to
near from the defendant. because he did
«rot want his head bothered with con-
llrcirug statements, but he at least warn
ed for the day of trial, instead of decid-
ng days in advance. We do not think
but this kind of "justice"proceeding>
it current among the justices of the state
generally, and are quite sure that it has
rot yet been introduced in our higher
courts.
"Trial by newspaper" is not altogether
unknown in this country, but it is a new
venture even of newspaperjurisprudcnw,
when the editor of a paper. being also a
justice, decrdes cases before him, and
irrnounces the result in his paper dayr-
'iefore the time. tired for trial.
The time was when iheollice of justice
‘f the peace in this commonwealth was

view of the sort of administration of law
llnstrsted by Justice Maples in this case,

"About the year 1700," says the Dan-
bury News, “a fair. young bride in the
village, now known as New Haven,
wore a dainty costume of white. The
gown was cut low in the neck and was
sleeveless. The dress was of light and
filmy texture, and weighed but about
three stress. It has been handed down
from generation to generation until it
has, at last, come into the possemion of
a Danbury lady. who will wearjt at the
Red Man's masquerade. The dress is re-
markably well preserved and is extreme-
ly valuable, both from its age and the
beauty of the smhroideries with which
it is covered. The design of the trim-
rning is very prettily worked in the
coarse linen thread so common in those
days."
