“WGEPSBT DON’T WANT HER.

Hollie Brooks Encounters Opposition
from Her Landlord.

Mollie Brooks, a character well known
in Norwalk, endeavored to locate in
Bridgeport, yesterday, and at once got
into trouble. According to the Bridge-
port Poet, she engaged apartments
several days ago, near the corner of
Bread and Cannon streets. Her charac-
ter was not known to the landlord until
yesterday, when her furniture was about
to be moved into the house. The assist-
ance of the police was asked to prevent
Mollie getting possession of the house,
and she became indignant, after having
paid a deposit on the place, at being pre-
vented from securing possession. She
went to the police station with the man
from whom she engaged the room, and,
after a conversation with Captain Bir-
mingham, Mollie finally decided to aban-
don the idea of taking the rooms. The
money she had deposited for the tens-
ment was returned to her.

 

 

Gossip, Jr., at Whitlnsvlllc.

Eddie Bowdoin with the game old
gelding Gossip, Jr., had a queer and un-
usual experience at the Whitinsville,
Maes., meeting last week. The old osm-
paigner actually won four heats in the
free-for-ail race, but in the end only got
second money. Jewett was in the race,
but he did not come out in the third heat
until the horses were away in the heat,
and when Gossip. Jr. came in a winner
the trip was declared no heat, the judges
claiming that they did not give the word,
although the drivers were sure they did,
and were equally positive that no recall
was sounded. Gossip lost the fourth on
account of a break, the judges setting
him back double the distance they claim-
ed he had gained. Old Jewett showed
much of his old-time speed in the first
half, but he tired in the other end of the
mile and was finally caught by the flag.
Gossip, Jr., has gone to Vermont for a
few weeks-Hartford Courant.

ADRIFT ON THE SOUND.

”rs. Connie‘s Yachting Party Finds a
Danbury Boy off Baton Point.

The yacht Dungeoness, which left
Newport yesterday morning, with Mrs.
Carnegie, Miss Carnegie, and her two
brothers, Andrew, Jr., and George,
aboard, ran across a list-bottomed boat
with a twelveyear old boy in it about 6
o’clock in the afternoon, about three
miles south of Rotor: Point. Captain
Fish, of the Dungeonem. steamed out to
the boat and took the boy on board. He
said he was Robert Bennett, son of Ar-
chibald Bennett, a furniture upholsterer
of 1 Terrace place, Dsnbury.

He told a number of big yarns and
tried to mislead his rescuers as to the
true history of his predicament, but from
what they could gather it was supposed
that he came down from Danbury on an
excursion to Roton Point, and there got
into the boat which he managed to get
adrift. He said that he wanted to go
away from home and was looking for
some outward-bound vessel which he
could board. He was well dressed, wore
a white shirt waist, blue knickerbockers,
tan shoes, and a straw hat, and seemm
refined, well mannered, and very bright
for his age.

Captain Fish left the boat at Noroton.
in the charge of John D. Crimmins, and
took the yachting party to landing No. 2
of the New York Yacht club, of which
Mrs. Carnegie is a member. He reported
the case at Police Headquarters, and said
that Ira. Carnegie would keep the boy
and send one of her sons today to Dan.
bury to try and find the father.

Young Bennett had been missing from
his home in Danbury since Monday noon,
and his parents were anxiously awaiting
tidings of him. The boy attended New
street school and after dinner, Monday,
started for school in company with a
scheolmate. The boys separated before
reaching school, and no one saw Bennett
after that.

When he did not return after school
that night his parents lecame alarmed
and instituted a search for him, and
when darkness came the police were no-
tified. The officers searched for him all
night, and early next morning every
place where it was thought possible that
he might have gene was‘ visited.

The supposition is that he took a sud-
den notion to leave home, and either
walked or stole a ride to South Norwalk,
then made his way to Roton ‘Point or
some other point along the shore, where
he got into a boat and set out in search
of adventure.

A New Home to be Established by tho
Order In Waterbury.

The twenty—sixth annual session of the
Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias, of
Connecticut, was held at Waterbury,
yesterday. The attendance was large.
The session opened at 10 a. m. with
prayer and singing with Grand Chan-
cellor Norton in the chair. The grand
chancellor’s report stated that he had
made seventy-six official visits and
traveled 7,000 miles during the past lif-
teen months. Grand Secretary Case re-
ported the existence of three new lodges
and nearly $1.800 in the treasury. There
had beena gain of 396 in membership
and the state membership indicated a
grand total of nearly 6.000.

At 1 o'clock the meeting adjourned
for dinner. When the meeting came to-
gether again the report of the committee
appointed at the last meeting of the
Grand Lodge in Danbury to consider the
matter of establishinga Pythisn home,
was read. The scheme was approved by
the committee and it was recommended
that the home be established in Water
bury. Reports from subordinate lodges
favoring the same location of the home
were next presented, after which there
was a general discussion of the matter.
occupying nearly all the afternoon.

Harper's Young People.

It is hard to realize, if you do not know
the business, how much danger there is,
how much bravery, energy and quick
wit are required, in the profession
known as "wrecking.“ If a French “lin-
er” goes ashore on the sand during a big
storm, the wreckers have to wait for
another storm before they can get her
off, because the waves that washed her
ashore only come again when such anoth-
er storm blows them up. Working on a
lee shore in a gale of wind gives a man a
good opportunity to show courage. Go-
ing down one hundred and fifty feet
under water takes a good diver and a
brave man. In fact, many of these inci-
dents and requirements make up an ex-
traordinarily interesting and valuable
article in Harper’s Young People for this
IGOR.

HE WAS A DAISY.

But as a Reporter lir- Made on Awful Blun-
der on a Big Stump.

“As funny nSthiug as i ever knew of
in the newspaper business, ” said the re-
formed reportcr, “was the way Sandy
McLean gave the Chicago Tribune a
scoop. New, Sandy, to my way of think-
ing, is the best reporter in Chicago. He
was a lawyer once, and a mighty good
one. but he saw that the law had no
such opportunities as the newspaper
business, and he came to Chicago from
the Iowa town where he was practicing
and began work on one of the big
dailies He hndn' tbeen there nvveekbe—
fore the managing editor realized that
he had a star, and Sandy was given ov.
cry opportunity to make himself a name.

“He made it too. Ho was put on big
story after big story and bent every oth'
er reporter in the city. After a time he
got to The Tribune and kept up his bril-
liant work. He was with The Tribune
for a long time. The Herald and other
papers wanted him, but Sandy stuck to
The Tribune. He got obit free and gay,
but the old mun put up with him. Fi-
nally patience ceased to be a virtue, and
one day Sandy drifted into the office
only to be told that they thought they
might be able toget out upupcr without
him if they hustled.

”He want out whistling goyly and
walked over to The Herald office. Ila
told them The Tribune people had just
fired him and asked for a job. The Hor-
ald was too glad to get him. They snap-
ped him up right away. The next day
Sandy reported for an assignment. The
city editor of The Herald put him on a
big story he had been keeping on the
ice for awhile and told Sandy that it
was exclusive.

“Sandy went out and got the facts.
He found that he was the first and only
newspaper man who knew anything
about the tale, and it was a corkcr. Ho
started back to the allies to write it up.
He had been so used to going to The
Tribune office that he mechanically got
off the car there and walked up into the
local room. He sat down at his old desk,
wrote the story and handed it to the city
editor. The city editor saw that the
story was sensational. put a scare head
on it and run it on the first page. The
Tribune was the only paper that had it,
and Sandy did not wake up to what he
had done until he had got a note from
The Herald city editor next morning
calling him all sorts of names and dis-
charging him He got back on The
Tribune. though, and he's there yet."

MAY HAVE BEEN MURDER“).

Suspicious Circumstances Attending the
Death of thho Baltimore,

The body of PhcebelBaltlmore, a young
colored woman, was found on the rail-
road track, near the Sound Beach sta-
tion, Sunday morning about 3 o’clock.
Dr. Jones, who was summoned, thought
the woman had been murdered, for her
throat seemed to have been cut and there
were other suspicious circumstances cou-
nectod with the matter.

She and “Gnssie” l-ladden went to
Stamford. Saturday night, with several
colored men. They had been drinking
and returnedzlate to Sound Beach, and
soon after I’bwbe Baltimore was found
on the track dead. “Jack” Tyrell, who
is said to be her sweetheart: “Tom," his
brother, and “Gussie” Madden were ar-
rested on the theory that the woman
mlghtfihavefiieen murdered and her body
placed on the track and they might
know something of the matter. At the
inquest, which has not been finished.
nothing was learned to justify this
idea.

Dr. Jones made a post-mortars exam-
ination of the body yesterday and it is
pomlble, he said, that the out in the
throat may have been made by the cow-
catcher of an engine. or by a flange of
the wheels of the cor.
