IMNBUIIY'S AWFUL WATERIMO.
To Think That it was a Club from South
tier-sis. or air Places.
There was mourning in Israel last
evening and all loyal Danburians put
on sack cloth andashes.foritcarne to
pass that a miscellaneous kmortincnt of
bail teasers from the ancient and clam-
ridden city of South Norwalk, a city
by the Sound. came to our city and
took in our pet ball nine and laid them
low in the dust. Then they robbed a
coat of whitewash on them. after which
they jumped upon our local players
without pity and without considersiion
forlhe feelings of the bewildered and
amazed spectators. Ordinarily Danbury
couldshndthedefeat. for the place is
teaming with philosophy. but that our
club’s Waterloo should be administered
bysclub from South Norwalk. of al.
places, is why Danbury's grief ls intense
anddeep. flsdateam from that pre’
tenuous city of Bridgeport taken us into
campwe could have swallowed it. but
that it should come from South Norwalk
too utterly awful to think about. And
what a drubbing it was—18 to 0-far
more disastrous than the Y. if. C. A.’s
gave to any upstart team that faced
them.

SIOBE THICK WITH CLAIS.
Curious Freak of the Storm Opposite Old
daybreak on tho Sound.
The recent storm and gals made a
wonderful change on the beach at the
sandplt opposite Old Sayhrook on the
Sound. Hundreds of bushels of mon-
ster long clams were washed out of the
send by the rolling surf and cast up on
the beach into shallow water. They lay
thick as peas and in regular windrowe.
This curious freak of the storm was dis-
covered Wednesday, and one best be-
longing in Lyme scooped up ten bushels
in a very short time. It was not pozsl-
ble to keep the secret very long and in a
few hours a fleet of small boats were
at work there gathering up the clams by
the wholesale. It h estimated that at least
100 bushels were taken from the water
in two days’ time. and asmany more
were covered by the continuous wash
of sand over them. Old hhsrtnen. who
have been familiar with every foot of
water within ten mllssof thsheaob,poel-
tlvely refused to believe any such story.
They visited the grounds and saw with
