About twenty men were lounging
around the bar in the. small room back
of Tuhey's grocery store, in Franklin
avenue, Saturday night, when Chief
of Police Bradley and a posse of officers
swooped down upon the place. Some
were in the act of drinking, others were
talking politics, and at one end of the
bar a select party were shaking dice.
One of 7thorn had just thrown five aces
and was congratulating himself on his
luck. when he was abruptly stopped by
the sudden opening of the semen doors
whichsetnratethe saloon from the stone,
and dodged to save his skull. just as
Norwalk’s big chief of police bounded
into the room and grabbed two bottles
which stood on the bar.

"The place is pull ," shouted some

'one.
‘ 11110111911111 glim, " yelled a third.

“Make a break for the door." advised
another.

All made a movement as if to escape
by the front or rear entrance. but Officer
Bartram at the front and Officer Val-
ient at the reur diseomflted the loungers
and they retreated into the corners in an
attempt to escape observation as
nmeh as possible.

Officer Hunt was just back of the
chief and kept his eyes on the lights to
prevent any one putting them out.

Old man Tuhey surveyed the officers
from behind the bar and was so upset

.thst he forgot to turn OR the faucet of
the ale pipe and allowed the liquor to
"run upon the floor. '

Chief of Police Bradley directed Oill-
oernnnmm as faunas of those
,present 1111 then there was another
reign of terror.

"Please chief, my name is Micky
Murphy,"responded the young man of
the dice game.

“None of that," said Officer H1111t,_.
“give me your right names and you
will be better off.”

The men edged around and got mixed
,up with one another in the hope of es-
caping the oflioer’s eye, but all the
names were secured and the men were
allowedto depart.

A search warrantwas producel and
in spite of the vigorous protests of Ta-
hey and his son, the officers searched
the premises for liquor.

,"You'have no right to touch that
stuff; you can’t take it away; my law-
yer, Mr. Gray, says you can’t. I have
been advhd by him that I can defy you
and sell right along until my appeal
from the County Commissioners’ refu 1111
to grant me a license is decided in the
court,” 'yelled Tuhey.

‘ His protests were of no avail, and the
liquor was carted out into the street and
loaded into S. G. Morrell's track. It

was thentaken to the lockup to be stored .

until the case comes up in court.

The officers confiscated 11 hogshead of
ale, 1!. barrel of cider, three boxes of
beer, three demijohns of whiske‘y,se.veral
odd bottles of liquor, and several milk
pails half full of ale from back of the
bar.

The police made no arrests, but will
prObably take both Tuhey and his
daughter-in-law, Mrs. Margaret Barnes,
into custody.

It is understood that Tuhey will make
a test case of the raid. Attorney Gray,
who prosecuted him several times for
violating the liquor laws, will now de-
fend him, and carry the case to the
higher court. '

SHAKIPEIIE It" A WDIAI'I POET.

A Correspondent 11111111 With the Sentinel:
Critic as tolho lesson.

Editor of The Sentinel: In your cor-
respondent’s article commanding the
Shaksperian lecture, he made the ‘as-
sertion “that Shakspere is not a wo-
man's poet." First, "Because he is too
real, holding up nature and life as it is."
Secondly. “He is not sentimental enough.
though having plenty of sentiment." A
very nice distinction.

What is sentimentality? Is it emo-
tional thought and feeling and fanciful
ideas, or, as the dictionary has it, “affec-
ting tine feeling.” This is the old sen-
tence pronounced against women; but as
the poet is also guilty.'lot it‘ pass. ' By
what authority the writer makes these
statements he does not reveal. With
the exception of a few “able women” of
his acquaintance he thus speaks for all.

-I heartily agree with him in thinking
that Shakespere. is not a woman's poet,
making no exception. but I differ vastly
as to the reason. I do not think, women
are afraid 11f the real, either in nature or
in art,but is it real, is it true, that Shaka-
pere depicts life as it is? I will admit
that he presents a true picture of life as
it was three hundred years and more ago,
when perhaps the world in which he liv-
ed had reached the lowest state of social
corruption, and the morals of the people
were deplorably bad. But the world 11f
civilization and of Christianity has ole.
vated and purified the standard set for'
the men and women of today. “There
are more things in heaven and in earth
than were dreampt of in his philosophy."

No one disputes his wonderful genius,
his keen insight into all the intricacies
of human nature, expressed in his in-
imicablc style, forceful and altogether
charming. N either is it because
thoughtful 11nd studious women are 111-
capable of understanding and appreciat-
ting the strength and beauty of his
works, but solely for the reason that too
much of his thought is expressed in
language incxcusably coarse and vulgar,
and often the plot is one which revolts a
sensitive and refined nature. No one
can read his works without deploring
this conspicuous blot upon his writings.

It is as though, after painting a sub.
lime and beautiful picture, full of the
light and sparkle of a genius, such
as no one but a Shakspere could
paint, he had smeared it over with the
mud of the street.

Wc overlook and forgive in Shaka-
pere much that in 11 modern author
wouldbe intolerable and unlawful. In
this respect what 11. contrast he presents
to Milton. But I do not presume to criti-
cise the great poet, only so far as to ex-
plain what to me seems the true and
sufficient reason why he can never be a
“woman's poet. " I11 doubt of being unde1 -
stood, aud'it may be for fear of not being
thought capable of comprehending the
depth and strength of the poet’s best
thought,or of mental calibre wide enough
to grasp his meaning, many are loth to
express themselves to this effect. I am
not one of the able women, but able to
enter a protest against the sentiments
advanced by your borrespondeut.

One would think from the article re-
ferred to that the women of N crwalk
had never read Shakspere fintil the Nor—
walk and South Norwalk clubs had cal—
led their attention to the immortal poet.
Is this amusing, or sad? Allow me to
make use of this quotation:

I do not know of these

That therefore are only reputed wise

For saying nothing.

.FIREMEN'S SONG SERVICE.

———-1',——..

Illany Turned Away.
There was standing room only at the
firemen's service under the auspices of
the Y. M. C. A., at the Norwalk Opera
House, yesterday afternoon?
The programme opened with a solo by
George R. Nash, accompaniedby his
"sister, Miss Jennie K. Nash, upon the
piano. Several illustrated hymns, pie-
tures of Chief Engineer Prowitt and his
assistants, the captains of the different
fire companies, Abraham Wright, the
veteran fireman, were thrown upon the
canvas by Secretary Jackson's stere-
opticon. Several the scenes were also
shown, with mechanical effects. Secre-
tary Jackson led the meeting and also
recited two illustrated poems, “The
Roadto Heaven" and "The Fireman' s
Wedding. " His iiv 0-year-old daughter
Essie recited the illustrated poem,
“Little Jim, the Collier’s Boy." An-
other p0pular illustration was the “Three
Graces."
Before the service was half over fully
11 hundred people were tumed away
from the doors, unable to get into the
hall.

THE SUNDAY NEWSPAEII

Rev. A. ll. Wyatt Says It It a Griev-
ous Wrong Against God and Man.

BONDEIAIIEII AS A LAW-BREAKER.

It Causes at Least Dos Hundred Thousand

Workman to Lose Their Ileodsd Rest and
Violator the Civil Law—Sunday Sor-
v1ess in Other churches ol Namath.

Rev. A. H. Wyatt. pastor of tho Nor
walk Methodist church, preached last
night, the second sermon in a series to
be given on the Sunday question, his
subject being “May I T111111 a Sunday
Newspaper?“ His text was “R111ne1n-
bertho Sabbath day to keep it holy“—
Exodus xx., 8. Mr. Wyatt said:

"This is the law of the Sabbath, nov-
cr abrogated. a law not for out1 nation
or class. but for man. The Sabbath
which God gave to man is aholy day.
This is also 11111 law 11f our nature." The
natural law of'the Sabbath Mr. Wyatt
illustruttnl by Dr. Hm-glar‘s chart.

"Every man is entitled to his seventh
day 11f rest. Anybody who deprives
him of it is athief. Any corporation
which crunpcls its employees to needless
work 1111 the Sabbath is n11 organized
band of thieves. \Vork 1111111111 work is
the American rule. Rest and 1111 rest is
a rule equally as good. If anyone wants
a [11:11-11 of 11111115011101“ 11111-111111 on Sunday
that he may find pleasure 11111111. 511111111 1110
c1511 must I111 deprived of his rest day.
The liberty of rest for 11111111 depends on
a law of rest for 1111. God put in the
111'1-11111guc what I111 had put in our 1111-
lure. 11111. law of a seventh day rest. He
made it holy because this is the only
11113111111 to secure it as 11 rest day. If the
Sabbath be not a holy day, it is a holi-
day, but it cannot be maintained as a
holiday, but will become a work day.

”In harmony with the law of God
and the law of our nature is the civil
law. It is 1111 almost universally recog-
nized principle in our laws that only
works of necessity and mercy shall be 111-
gal on the Sabbath. The courts of our land
stand by the law of nature and of God
on this Sunday questio’rii Every one of
those three laws the Sunday newspaper
violat1.-s. It stand condemned as a law-
l1n1akcr. It assails the sanctity of the
Sabbathwconmels at least one hundred
thousand workman to lose their needed
rest day, and violates the civil law.
Tin- Sunday newspaper is 1111ither a
Work of necessity nor mercy. but soler
11 111111111y—111nki11g enterprise. The distri-
bution of the Sunday paper violates the
triple law of the Sabbath more than its
111anuf11ct111'c. A paper published seven
days in the week requires seven days
work."

Mr. Wyatt drew a picture of a gro-
cerymafi distributing his goods on Sun-
day as the publishers of a Sunday paper
1111 theirs. He said the groceryman, and
the saloonist. and merchants of any
kind have an equal right to keep open
on Sunday.

“Thesummd indictment of the Sun-
day paper is," he said, “that it weakens
the moral tone of community. Its i11—
11111-111111 is vast and is thrown on the
side of law—breaking. \Vhat are its
protests worth against the Sunday saloon,
or any other form of Sabbath desecra-
tion? They are worth a thicf‘s protests
against stealing. The answer is quick
111111 powerful: ‘Thou hypocrite. cast
out first the beam out of thine own eye,
and thou shalt thou sec clearly to cast
out thcmotc'out of thy brother's eye.’
The Sabbath breaking by the paper
renders its moral tone weak and unreli-
1111111. This is one reason moral reforms
get so little help from the papers.

"The third indictment of the Sunday
paper is, that it is destroying the only
1lykc which keeps the sea of toil out
from the day, and is exposing the wage-
11arncrs to a week seven days long with
toil, compensated with six days for
pay. If the sacre1h1ess- of the Sabbath
be destroyed is must become a work day.
Already one hundred thousand wage-
earners the Sunday paper compels to
werk on the Lord's day. There is no
demand for a‘Sunday paper which it has
not itself created. If there were, it
would no more make it right than
Israel’s demand for a golden calf, and
the1 chief priest‘s demand for the cruci-
fixion of Christ. The Sunday paper is
a grievous wrong against God and man.

“The Sunday paper is demoralizing

__ the buy. It teaches thethousands of boys

who distribute it to disregard the Sab-
bath, the house of God, and the laws of
the land. It is raising up a class of law-
brenkers and infidels. Every one who
buys a Sunday paper is helping to sup-
port the most gigantic Sabbath-breaking
attempt of the nineteenth century."

proved last night by, the crowd that

asurprise to the congregation for the
excellent manner in which they were
