Some of the summer residences at
Wilson's Cove received the attention of
burglars, Saturday night, but as far as
can' be learned at this writing, nothing
of great value was secured.

' The houses reported to have been on-
tered are those of Rev. W. G. Thomas,
of Boston, and E. B. Magnus, connected
with the New York Life Insurance com-
pany of New York. J. R. Scofiold. of
Prospect Hill, has charge of the houses,
but he does not know positively whether
anything was taken, as he is not familiar
enough with their contents. ' Every-
thing in the houses, however, showed
evidences of having been disturbed.
Bureaus and closets were ransacked, and
various articles scattered about. The
windows and doors of the houses are
., _ protected by heavy board shutters, and
_ ‘ ~ an are bad evidently been used on one
of these at each house by the burglars
to enable them to get in. The houses
standclese to the. shore of‘the Wilson
Cove harbor, a hundred or two hundred
feet from the roadlemmg to Bell Island,
and several hundred feet from the
nearest inhabited house.

In the suit of George W. Stevens, ad-
ministrator, vs. Normal: Tramway com-
pany there is 3 great deal of testimony
for Judge Hall to unravel, much of it
that may be set aside from consideration
when arriving at a finding. It is a case
in which witnesses have done a great
deal of lying, according to their own ud-
missions. Contllctiug stories were told
regarding the accident which resulted in
Oliver R. Mumford's death, to tho oili-
cers of the company, to the coroner and
to the courtr-Brldgdport Farmer.

Particular exception was taken to a
clause fixing a time when the line must
be completed. Although the (late nam-
ed was a great deal later than the time
at which the Tramway people declared
they would have cars running, the com-
pany was not willing to bind itself to
keep its promises. People who are very
anxious for trolley communication with
Norwalk think the tonne were too
severe. Some of these attended the
caucus Friday night and voted against
the present burgessos, but as two-thirds
of those attending the caucus stood by
the burgesses, the; old ticket was reuomi—
noted bya vote of about two to one.

0i Study.

In an informal on the schools of
Brookline by S. T. Datum, superintend-
ent of eddcationin that fine Massachu-
setts town, before Ithe Civic club, of
Hartford, Mr. Du Said the schools
of Brooklinc are, unate in being lo-
cated in a community of. great wealth,
where politics in the accepted sense
of the term do not obtain in town
affairs. and where there is great
public spirit, always, expressed
the old fashioned tovvn meeting,
winch still holds swpy. The town has
a population of 15,001) people and an
assessed valuation of 060,000,,000 and
the schools'beneilt to a large extent from
the money raised upon this amount.
The grammar so 111 include French
and Latin in their also of study, and
manual training-is in all'thc schools
from the fifth e, and in a sense
from tho kin " m up. The boys
are taught shop 1: and the girls
sewing, and before ey reach the high
school are able .to cut and lit a dress.
Nature studies and science also forms a
considerable part of the course. Nature
work is carried on out of doors' In sum-
mer and in winter- a small monagerie
of animals, rabbits, guinea pigs, doves
and the like are sent around the schools
that the children may study the real
live thing as well as the description and
the pictures of it.

There is u unityof purpose in allthc
lines of study from the kindergarten to
the high school, and an attempt toin-
tcrcst the children all the way through
their studies. 01' di'scipline, as the term
is generally understood, there is none,
teachers and scholars working together
as companions in the pursuit of knowl-
edge. Thcro' Is an unusual public inter-
est in the schools.
