TWO CENTS
CAPTURED A PALE FACE
DEPUTY GREAT SACHEM FRANCIS
EXHIBITS HIS PBOWESS.
‘- Adventure Which Went lar- Ahsad of
the lost Blood-Omani): Degree or
Icelpln‘ Scene of the Improved Order
0! lot! lien.
J. P. Francis, Deputy Great Sachem
ofthe Independent Order of Red Men,
had an adventure with a ”pale face,"
Saturday afternoon about 5 o‘clock,
which he says goes far ahead of the most
blood-curdling degree or scalping the
order of Red Man ever indulged in.
Mr. Francis and his family were on the
first floor of their residence at the corner
of Washington and Franklin streets. He
had just arrived home for supper, when
there came the sound of a frightful crash
from the basement. Mr. and Mrs. Fran-
cis rushed down stairs and found a man
on the outside of the door with both
hands thrust through the glass, while
blood was trickling to the floor from
several ugly cuts in the flesh. The man,
all this time. was talking wildly, making
threats and caning.
The commotion was heard by Mat-
thew Corbett, Mr. Francis’ next door
neighbor, who started over to assist him.
Mr. Corbett called to his aid E. E. Buck-
ingham, who was going down Washing-
ton street on his way home just at that
time, and together they went to the rear
of thehouse, while Mrs. Francis went
out to find a policeman. She stopped at
Solmans’ livery office, and Oscar 8.
Banks, the obliging book-keeper, started
out to find an officer. It happened, how-
ever, that Chief of Police Vollmer was
the only ofiicar on duty at the time. He
was at the steamboat wharf, and Mr.
Banks did think to look there.
Meanwhile, at the house, Messrs. Cor~
bett and Buckingham had succeeded in
getting the crazy fellow away from the
door. Great Sachem Franc is then
walked out, armed with a clothes pole,
and after executing a ghost dance about
the pale face captive, was about to scalp
him. when he decided it would be better
policy to take the follow to the lockup
and imprison him until a more auspi-
cious occasion for the Red Men ceremo-
nial presented itself. Relieving Mr.
Corbett, Mr. Francis, assisted by Mr.
Buckingham, marched his prisoner to-
ward the lockup.
Opposite H. E. Pesse’s residence, how-
ever, the fellow showed signs of resist-
ance, but he soon found that it was
useless to try and get away when in the
hands of such stalwart warriors as his
captors were, and Mr. Buckingham soon
subdued him. Theysucceeded in landing
the fellow in the lockup, and placed him
in a cage, amid the applause of a large
number of interested spectators who had
assembled as the trio went down South
Main street.
The man proved to be Jeremiah Mur~
ray, about tWenty‘two years
of age. a resident of South Nor-
walk. but who, last week, went to Fair
Haven to take the Keeley cure. Friday
the officials at the institution gave him
all the liquor he desireil, and he beta'me
intoxicated The following day he came
wSouth Norwalk, u here be had an
attack of delirium trumens. in the
lockup he was very ugly. and reaching
through the iron bars of the cage,
knocked the stove over, tore his clothes
off, and banged his head against the cot.
Dr. Coliurn was called, and he put two
or three injections of morphine into
Murray’s right arm, and in a few
minutes he Went. to sleep.
Murray was brought before J ustico
Barrett, this morning, charged with
drunkenness and breach of the [mace lie
pleaded guilty and was fined $5 and
costs. Chief of Police V ollmer took the
man to the county jail this afternoon.

llama from Sermons Preacher] by Nor.
walk and South Morwalk Pastors.
The text of Rev. It. 0. Sherwood’s
sermon, yesterday morning, at the South
Norwalk Baptist church, was, "And
why call yo me Lord, Lord, and do not
thlthlngs that l sny?"»-I.uke vi., 46. He
mid: “Tobe a Christian is to be a dis-
cipleof Jesus Christ: to be a disciple, is
tobe more than a simple learner. True
discipleship implies likeness. To accom-
plhli this one must be obedient to the
teacher. To be a Christian in the high-
estsnd largest sense of the term means
mthan many suppose. It is larger
than church membership; more than
ample profemion. It requires effort and
thought and demands an exercise of all
our but powers. Christlike deeds are of
mules in God’s night than empty
professions. It is easy enough to say.
'LordJordl’ Not so easy to do what
thelmd requires. We should not for-
gstuis need and importance of faith,
but works are needed as well. Christ

Christ gave one great commission, 'Go
ye into all the world and teach all. us-
tions, making disciples of them, teach-
ing them to observe all things whatso-
ever 1 have commanded you, and low, 1
will be with you“ all way.’ This many
have followed and have been rewarded
with rich harvests after their labors, for
Christ has been with them as he always
is and will be with each and all, laboring
for him at home or abroad, and that to
bless."

Grace Episcopal.
Rev. S. H. Watkins, of Grace church,
preached, yesterday morning, upon the
conversion of St. Paul, taking for his
text, "I was obedient to the Heavenly
Vision." He said he could not. under-
stand why the work of spreading the
Word of God should be supposed by
many to be entrusted to a chosen fen"
Each and every one had a share in the
work. Continuing, he said, that while
he believed he was called to perform his
share of the work, as a minister of the
gospel, each and every one of us should
be thankful that we may be able to say
that we also have our portion to fulfill,
He concluded by stating that he believed
that every one at some time received a
vision; that there was but one rule, and
that was to follow the example of Saul
of Tamils—obey. in the evening he de~
livered an address, his theme being
“Faith Without Works is Dead.”

ball Enthusiasts see the First Game of
the Championship Series between the
Crack Clubs of the Twin Cities.
The first game of the long-looked-
for, much-talked-about series for the
championship of the town of Norwalk,
was played at the Baxter grounds, last
Saturday afternoon, and South Norwslk
gets first honors.
The baseball loving public and the
sporting element of the two cities have
waited for over a month, anxious to see
the clubs from the two cities comato-
gether and do battle for supremacy. Be-
tween four and five hundred people wit-
nessed the game, and never in the an-
nals of Norwnlk‘s baseball history, has
such enthusiasm been manifested as was
shown throughout the entire game last
Saturday BEECIDOUD.‘ Not a good play
was made, nor a point gained, but what
the supporters of the opposing clubs
clearly demonstrated the fact that they
were all excitement, and that they were
“rooting" and “rooting" with heart and
soul for their favorites. Nothing passed
unnoticed, no opportunity was lost to
“whoop her up” for either Norwalk or
South Norwalk.
The game itself was poorly, yes, mis-
erably played. The cheers and yells
from the spectators. combined with too
much eagerness to win on the part of the
players, rendered them nearly unable
to field the ball. The two cluhs,as
they were lined up, seemed almost in-
vincible, and yet agood nine of small
boys could have defeated either club. it
was a clear case of “rattles" throughout
the whole game, and for nine innings fun,
noise and excitement reigned supreme,
and with all the poor plays, with all the
proud boasts of the Norwalk cranksof
bavim,r the better team. we won by a
score of nineteen to seventeen. The
South Norwulk rooster does the (TOW-
ing and the Norwalk cranks are sad.
Norwslk stock went away down in the
first inning as our boys piled up six
runs, while the Parks could secure only
two. In the second, the. South Norwulks
failed to score, while the Norwulks ud-
ded another to their list. in the third,
our club gained three more runs, shut-
ting out the visitors. The fourth in.
uing, however, gave the game an entirely
llifierent appearance, for while scorer
Lyons hung up a great big goose egg for
the South Norwallis, the Parks batted
out nine runs, giving them a lead of
three inns. Neither club scored in the
fifth, but in the sixth the South Nor-
walks tied the score in their half and
shut the visitors out. in the seventh,
each gained a point, ligain leaving the
score a lie. South Norwalk piled up
four runs in the eighth, again getting the
leud,and shill out. the Parks. in the
ninth and lust inning, two more runs
were added to our list. making a total of
nineteen. in order to keep up the in-
terest, the team from Norwnlk made
four time before the third man was out.
