Appetite—Another Divorce.
constable Samuel C. Ireland served
papers, yesterday, ina suit for divorce
brought by Arthur L. Seymour against
his wife, Ida Seymour. ,
Mrs. Seymour is the woman about
whom so much has appeared of late in
the papers regarding her mental condi-
tion. This was due, no a relative of the
family informed a Sentinel reporter. this
afternoon, not so much to her domestic
troubles, as to her excessive use of nar-
cotics and stimulants.
It is also alleged by Mr. Seymour's re-
latives that Mrs. Seymour has enter-
tainedothermenduringherhusband’s ab.
scuce from home, causing much of the
trouble between them, and that it is. on
this ground, it is said, that he brings
‘ the suit for divorce.
On March 8 Mr. Seymour forbade
through The Sentinel all persons trust-
inghis wife on his account. He took
their only child, adaughtor, to the borne
of his father, Henry L. Seymour, Maple
avenue, East Norwalk. Mrs. Seymour's
maiden name was Ida Buckman. She
lives at ~17 Prospect avenue.
Mr. and Mrs. Seymour were married
June 19, 1882, by Rev. John Cronrlish.
Mr. Seymour's case is in the hands of
Attorneys Light and Taylor.

I \ FOUR OYSTER POLICE.
Appointments less by the Shell Fish Commis-
sioners-Dells Condemned.
Four members of the new oyster po-
lice form have been appointed by the
Shell Fish Commissioners. They are:
For the district including East Haven,
New Haven and Orange, David Riale '
for the Milford district, Leonard Ran :
for the Westport and Norwalk district,
Preston Hart; for the Stamford, Barton
and Greenwich district, A. Lincoln
Ford.
These appointments were made in ac-
cordance with the recommendations of
the groyvers in the different sections re-
pmsented, and were at the time of their
appointment employml as private watch-
men by the oyster growers. With the
exception of one district—Weslport and
Norwalk~fhoy will be assigned to
night dut '. The growers in the West-
port and orwalk district say that most
of the thieving in their district is done
in the seed buying season, and that the
(lepredations are committed in the day
time by boats from New York.
The appointments in the Bridgeport
and Stratford districts will probably be
made next Tuesday.
The Commissioners have also voted to
condemn 551i acme of oyster beds bo-
oause of failures to pay the State tax.
They were located in Branford. Green-
wich, Stamford, New Haven, Fairlicld
and Westport. This action was taken
under the law providing that the prop-
erty might be condemned if the taxes
were unpaid for five years or more. All
of those condemned yesterday were of
cases where the tax had not been aid
for ten years, and the owners of w ich
had been notified of the non—payment
last November. There are more cases
of this kind to be settled in the near
future. -

The opponents of Mr. Klinefelter say
that under no circumstances rill this

LOCAL PASSENOER TRAFFIC.
”a”-..
Trains on the W Road Relive" South
hornet at Stamford.
The recent suit of the Norwalk Tram-
way vs. Consolidated road brought out
wnsidrable evidence relative to the pas-
senger traffic between Stamford, Nero
ton, Darlen, Rowayton and South Nor~
walk. According to the latest time
table of the Consolidated road there are
fifteen trains east each neck day which
stop at Noroton, as follows: 6:20. 7:28,
8:34 and 11:33 a. 111.; 12:30, 1:20, 2:31),
4:08, 6:14, 5:89, 6:12, Til-"i, 8:20, 9:29 and
11:02 p. at. These trains all stop at
Darlen, Rowayton, and South Norwalk.
To obtain the time they lcaveDarien add
three minutes, add six minutes for the
Rowayton leaving time, and for the ar-
rival at South Norwallt, add eleven min-
utes. The average time of these accom-
modation trains between Stamford and
South Norwallr‘is about eighteen min-
utes. .'
Going west there ' thirteen trains
leaving South Nos-w which ate at
Rowayton, Darien and Noroton. A i go
to Stamford and beyond. These trains
leave Rowayton as follows: 0:20. 7:00.
7:10, 7:59, 9:41 and 11:51:. m.;1:16, 2:59,
4:12, 5:35, 6:54, 8:18 and 10:25 p. m. The
leaving time from South Norwalk is
five minutes earlier; Darien, three. and
Norotou six minutes later. The aver-
age time from South Nor-walk to Stam-
ford is about the same as that from
Stamford to South Norwalk.
Sands a, going east. three trains
stop at horotcn, 7:28 and soon. 1a., and
7:03 p. m. These trains all stop at Dar-
ien and Rowayton, and the time made
is about the same as week days. Going
west, four trains from South Norwalk and
points east stop at Rowayton, 9:19 a.
m. and 6:18, 7:27 and 9:33 p. m. These
trains also stop at Daricn and Noroton
and go through to New York. The
running time is the same as that of the
week day schedule.

TWO REII KILLED III THE OOLLISiOll
Assistant Superintendent W. it. Lyon Plants
Under the Wreck lor Tao flours-Several
Others injured—The Blame Attached to
a Brailemsn who Rochied His Duty. ’
A disastrous rear end collision between
a freight train and a snow plow occurred
on the Berkshire division of the New
York, New HnVen and Hartford rail-
road, near Kent Furnace, about 12 miles
north of New Milford. Two men were
killed and seven or eight were injured.
The dead are .1. Henry Mufphy, con-
ductor, Great Barrington, Mass; Jere-
miah Nolan, assistant roadmaster.
Assistant Superintendent W. K. Lyon,
who was on the plow at the time, was
pinned in among the debris purl could
not be got out for two hours. He was
not seriously hurt, as the timbers fell
in such a manner that he was caged in.
When Lyon reached Bridgeport he was
asked as to the probable cause of the dis-
aster, but begged to be excused.
The most seriously injured ware l-‘runl;
Murphy. a brother of the conductor. who
sustained broken ribs and other injuries.
and Max Freeman, a German trnlnhand,
who was injured about the bead. Six
other men were slightly injured.
The south bound freight train was about
to take the siding when a snow plow
bound south came around the curve at a
high rate of speed and crashed intotho
caboose. Three cars were piled up in a
heap. Conductor Murphy was in the ca-
boose and was instantly killed. Nolan
had both legs taken off and died soon
after. ' '
The accident. it Is believed. was due to
the failure of the flagmsu of the freight
to stay in the rear long enough. Traffic
was delayed for about five hours.

BLOOIERS MUST OEASE TO ILOOI.
The Question Decided by the Scholars ol Whit-
Iooll'e School After a Lively Debate.
The fortnightlv debate at Whitlock‘s
Educational Institute, Wilton, tools
place Wednesdayxharles W.Whitiock's
presiding. The subject for debate was,
“Should the female nor be allowed to
wear bloomers and ride the bicycle in
public?" The negative and winning
side was represented by tiny V. Waite,
William Howard. Matthew Skelling,
Alfred Device, Milton Wasson, Robert
Wesson and Paul Cornelius. The op-
posing side was represented by Arthur
B. Graham, Scrafln Busto, Albert Bau-
croft, James Drumgoid, Weddee Was-
son. Berrjarnin.liallett and Guillermo
Cases.
The debate opened with a very able
argument in favor of bloomers by Mr.
Graham. who was ably seconded by
Master Weddeo Wesson. It tended to
show that bloomers are a benefit and
been «to the sex at large; that they gave
agreater freedom of motion while on
the wheel and that they preserved the
fair rider from bodily harm in case of a
fall, insomnch as there. are no skirts to
become caught in the machinery of the
wheel, and also that the bloomers caus-
ed the fair rider to appear more graceful
Whig: (In her wheel. b
e ore ing argument was met
Guy V. flyte and William Howard:
who put up a very strong case against
bloomers, going into the future to prove
the evil effects of bloomers and the
bicycle craze on the morals of the rising
generation of the female sex, and prov-
ing to the satisfaction of the resident,
Professor Charles W. Whitloc ', that it
is better for the girls and women at
large to wear the legitimate garb of
their sex; that if‘wc should allow them
to wear bloomers, in the course of time
one could not tell the difference between
a man and a woman.
After nearly four hours and a half of
lively debating the president decided
the debate in favor of the negative side.
He said the femalesox should not be
allowed to wear bloomers and ride the
bicycle in public: that the bicycle was
first made and intended for men only,
to assist them to travel: but at the pres-
ent time it seems that more women
travel that way than men. “Why? To
attract their attention, as a matter of
course," he said. First, they were satis-
tied to wear a bicycle skirt; but as that
was not suitable to the wheel and did
not make them appear manly enough,
Ithey thought they would try a pair of
(bloomers fastened at the ankle. They
. tried that style for a while and that did
«not prove to be just the thing, so they
{have somewhat improved on the cut of
i blmmers by fastening thorn now at the
knee. Prof. Whitlock said. there were
Imles, but the future results would cer-
! tainly not hr- of the best. He also stated
if you put a lovely young girl or woman
I in bloomers and loud stockings on a
