A boat occupied by three unknown
men, who were unable to speak English
very distinctly, capsized off Dorlon's
Point, Sunday afternoon. and the men
narrowly escaped drowning. Had it not
been for the prompt assistance rendered
byJamea Whitney, 0! South Norwalk,
they would, perhaps, have been the ilrst
victims on the list of Sunday boating
lahlltlee. Mr. Whitney righted the boat
” and-pulled the unfortunate men aboard,
and‘as theysuflered the loss of an oar,
he .tqwed,.them ashore. After he had
' mfimonthe South Nor-walk side of
fitherlvar and reached the middle of the
né‘m,hewas hailed by one of them.
» Ho rowed back, thinking something seri-
ous was up, but upon reaching the shore
he was asked if he had a match, as they
were nearly dead; for a smoke. But,
from outward appearances, it looked
very much as if they were almost dead
from having received such a drenching.

The New York Herald tel's us that the
weather will be warmer today in the
Middle Atlantic states: that the heat wr"

fluence of southeasterly winds from the
ocean will be felt on and near the coast;
but the temperature is high in the inter-
ior of the country, and the “warm wave”
will slowly spread eastward. Meantime
it is likely there will be much fog oil the
coasts and outgoing v. 'se‘s will be 831i-

midity ol' the air in this region will also
be high, but thut will not make the
