A Icarus to be held at Bridgeport on
’ Tuesday. August la-Ieme or the lasts
set teeth in the Petititlentollle lu-
perlnr Cont.
I Papers have been served in an appeal
from the order of the sslectmen of Dar-
ion in locating the proposed tracks of the
Norwaik Tramway company through
.. I. thattown. The ordar.signod by Judge
Hallo! the Superior Court, was granted
‘ , upon the application of prominent prop-
erty-owners of Barton, through their at-
torney. Hon. Samuel Femenden. of
1 Stamford. The appeal is allowed. and a
hearing is to be had in the Superior

Court room at Bridgeport, August 13, at

10a. m.. when the selectmen and the

Tramway company officials will have an

opportunity to show why the petition

referred to heretofore should not be
granted.

The petitioners, who own land front-
ingonthe street along which the pro-
posed tracks are to run, include Joseph
D. Weed of Savannah, Ga; John W.
Weed and Harvey N. Weed, of Flushing,
N. Y.; Hattie Whitney, Sarah A. Whit-
ney, Henry T. Tristram, Phoebe Clock,
John V. Hecker, Holly Seeley, Charles
W. Raymond, Phoebe Turner, Helen

‘ Clock. the If. E. Church, F. S. Fitch,
C.G.Watsrbnry, St. John’s R. 0. Church,
and John Jellifl‘e, all of Darion; Amelia
F. Waring. executrix of Mary E Weed;
John W. Wood. of Flushing, executor of
Sarah A. Weed, and Jacob Miller, of
Dorian.

The petition sets forth that the select.
men ordered(ifarch 11,1895.) the loca-
tion of the tracks on the highway front-
ing petitionera’ property at a distance of
eighteen feet from the fence line of the
southerly and easterly aide of the high-
way to the center line of the track. from
the point where Central road intersects

Connecticut turnpike to C. W. Ray-
mond's corner. thence to the dividing
line between Darien and Stamford, the
,‘csuteriine of its track not more than
ftwantydive nor lees than eighteen feet
from the fence line now existing on the
south and east of the turnpike, the pre-
cise location of the track to be determin-
f“ by the aelectmeu.

The petitioners claim that the track, as
floated by the selectmen between the
Central road and Raymond’s corner,
Ieaveaaspaceof not over thirteen and
one-half feet for travel‘on the south side
of the highway, and from Raymond's cor-
nertoths dividing line,a aspaee of be-
tween thirteen and one- half to twenty
feet.

The condition of the Connecticut turn-
pike is represented to be such, in front of
the petitioners‘ land, that the tracks can-
not be located and cars operated accord-
ingto the plan proposed without great

‘ detriment and damage to the petitioners’

, limp"!!-

‘l'he petitioners say there should be a
space on the south side. between track

d fence, to properly pa- and repses on

not, of at least ten feet.

It is further claimed that the proposed
location of the tracks would prevent the
petitioners from gaining access to their
property without crossing the track, as
there would not be sufiicient spaceon the
south.

To properly accommodate public travel
and to give the petitioners access to
their premises, the track should be
located twenty feet further north, and at
or near the center of the highway.

The petitioners claim "that they are
aggrieved by the doings, decision, direc-
tion and order of the selectmen cf the
town of Darien in so deciding upon the

IIIKIED IEMITEIB.

They Say Ionic laal lean Things
About the South Norwaik Team.
In their accounts of the Shelton-South

Norwaik ball game. pilyed la Shelton,"

Wednesday. the Anscnia Sentinel and
the Derby Transcript print vary peculiar
reports of the game. The Sentinol's ac‘
count contains the following:

0. lander appearsdln his nniformas
aYale Law school player; W. lander
represented Brown University. Donne
so in the colors of the Boston
Polytechslque: Simone, of Haverhlll,
r-loyed firsthase; Clark, of Dorian, was

center lisid; Welsh, of Danbury, in
right field; and Sullivan, of Bridgeport,
Sheahao.ef New Haven. with Hoff, of
South Norwaik. completed the team,
Herbert.“ the Bridgeport Victcrs, being
on the bench as substitute.

As a matter of fact G. Lauder hasn't
played with Yale in two years; W. Lan-
der is home from Brown University on a
vacation; Donne does not attend the Bos-
ton Polytechnic; Simons never played
in or with Baverhill; Clark, who lives in
the town of Norwaik, played center;
Weloh does not belong with Dsnbnry,
but here; Sullivan, as everybody knows,
has been employed inSouth Norwaik for
nearly ten years, and has always played
ball with South Norwaik teams, and
Sheehan belongs in Norwaik. J . Dun-
leavy, a regular member of the South
Norwaika, was en the bench as "sub” for
South Norwaik, and not Herbert, who is
one of the Victors. of Bridgeport. The
Sentinel did not mention the fact that
Shea, Leary. Miller and Mills, of the
Derby team. played with Shelton against
South Norwaik. It also prints the fol-
lowing:

As one of the Norwaik rootera said.the
team that came here had been picked for
the express purpose of wiping the ground

with the Sheltons. and much surprise was
expressed at the closeness of the game

If one of the South Norwaik routers
said that, he must have been badly
"twisted." In the first place, the amount
guaranteed the South Norwalks for play-
ing would not warrant their doing any
such thing, for if what the Ansonia Sen-
tinel said about the makeup of the South
Norwalks was true, it would have cost
at least 875 to get our team together, and
pay them for playing.

Again-

In the first half of the ninth the visit-
ors won the game by what the lucky
pls er admitted to be an accident. Dunne
he reached tint on a single and G. Lau-
der came to the bat Corcoran put on an
extra burst of speed and sent in one of
his lightning inshoots, which Lauder
tried to dodge. swinging his bat forward
as he bid on. To his utter amazement the
bat and ball collided, the latter going
over right field fence, while the former
broke at the handle.

If the Sentinel reporter had watched
and remembered what he had seen, or
perhaps seen correctly. he must have
printed that the result of George Lau-
der'e “accident" was a line foul hit along
the right foul line, and that his hit over
the fence was a clean hit, such as any
ball player could be proud of. witha
different bat. But then,“accidanto" will
happen.

The Derby Transcript is a little more
liberal in its criticism. The following is
clipped from its account:

The South Norwalka, however, were
representative of every other place ex-
cept South Norwaik. They went forth
on the field, one wIth a blue “Y" on his
breast. another wearing‘ the Brown Uni
varsity rig, another the Polytechnic,
while two more wore the colors of the
Isridon baseball team. They were not
pretty to look at. Few of them were
built on the lines of an Adonis, and they
presented a knleidoscopic appearance In
their variegated uniforms.

Not even a piece of a Meriden uniform
was worn by our boys, that idea probably
shaping itself in the brain of the Derby
reporter over the fact that the Lauder
boys are members of the lerldeu team
but are distinctly South Norwaik boys
and the prime movers in the organization
of our prment good team.

All that wehave to say is that the
South Norwaik team, with the exception
of Dunne. all live in the town. They
make no boasts or claims, but play ball
more for amusement than as a matter of
business. They are a good lot of fellows
and they can play ball. The only way
we can account for the opinions printed
in than two papers, is that the writer
must have been the person who attended
the game and wagered and lost a necktie
on the result.

Wouldn’t it he a good idea to have an-

South Norwalhs wear their crazy quilt
uniforms.

GOVERNOR FIRMS.

While Governor Colin and Mute-ant.
Governor Cooke Wars on or the Irate.

Senator John H. Ferris, of South Nor»
walk. was acting governor of Connecti-
cut. This condition of affairs has been
brought about by the absence of Gov-
ernor Coffin. who was in New York
state, and of Lieutenant Governor Cooke,
who is on his way to Nova Scotia. Gov-
ernor Ferris has not been at the capitol
and it may be that he does not know of
his temporary honors. Ifr. Ferris is
state senator from the Thirteenth dist-
rict, and is acting governor because he is
president pro tem. of the Senate.

The law makes these provisions for
vacancies in the office of governor. and it
further provides that if the president
pro tem. of the Senate cannot fill the va-
cancy another must be elected. lf Act-
ing Governor Ferris should take a day's
trip to New York city or should spend a
day on the Seund.railing it would be the
duty of the secretary of state under the
law to convene the session for the ele-
ction of another acting governor, It is
to be hoped that Senator Ferris will con-

e himself strictly to the limits of this

"to until either the executive or his
lieutenant returns from his foreign
journey. It would be too bad to impose
upon the already overworked senators
the duty of coming together again in
this hot weather after their arduous is-
born of the past session.-New Haven
Journal and Courier.

a good sized amount to the conductor,
and that it had been liberally punched,
hut afterward had a good laugh with the

LOWTII IS NOT A IYTII.

But the Story In Told in Norwaik New
Looks a Little Fishy.

John Lowth, amember of the Norwaik
Fire Police, and a former clerk for
George W. Raymond, the grocer, and
who is now living in Bridgeport, came to
Norwaik the other day and told his
friends a hard-luck story about his being
a motcrman on a Bridgeport trolley car
and having been arrested for running
faster than prescribed by the Bridgeport
city ordinances. He claImed he was out
$15 by the affair, and it is said he borrow-
ed money from his friends to help make
up the deficiency In his exchequer, cans-
ed by paying the fines. Genuine sympa-
thy was felt for him, and the story he
told appeared in THE SnurINI-Il. It was
copied in the Bridgeport papers and than
John's little ruse was exposed.

Last night's Bridgeport Farmer con-
tained the following:

“The article in the South Norwaik
SENTlNEL stating that John Lowrh. of
that place, had been arrested and fihsd
$7 and costs in this city for violating
the ordinance relative to speed of trolley
cars, is without foundation. As far as
the local authorities are concerned
Lowth is a myth. as no such person has
been arrested here for any «use. No
one has ever been arrested in this city
for violating the ordinance relative to the
speed of trolley cars. "

John's friends now think that he. Ilia-
led them and did not stick strictly to
facts.
