Joseph Duncan, a Young llal later Employed
by Wilson in Ca, Found langlui and On-
conscious all the Wilson Point Exten-
sion, Early Yesterday lamina.
Joseph Duncan, another victim of the
remorseless car wheels, died yesterday
morning about 10:30 o’clock, at the
home of his grandmother, Mrs. Anna
Grigg, and uncle, Joseph LaPointe,
‘ with whom he resided in the last house
but one on the east side of Ely avenue.
The young man was a son of John Dun-
can, a well-known Danbury hatter, who,
fifteen years ago, worked in South Nor-
walk. Joseph was a sizer at J. C. Wil-
son 85 Co.’s factory, was most exemplary
in all his habits, and highly spoken of
by all his shopmates. He was not given
to intoxicants, and his relatives and
friends are mystified and shocked at his
untimely death. .,
Shortly after daybreak, yesterday
morning, a resident of the Wilson Point
‘ road, between Bach's quarry and Ely
c-
avenue, glanced out of a window and
thought he saw the body of a man lying
on the track near the spring, just north
of where Ely avenue intersects with the
Wilson Point road. Dennis Lahey, a
motorman on. the Tramway road, was
aroused, and the' men investigated.
They found young Duncan, still alive,
but unconscious, lying on the spur track
to‘ the west of the main track, his head
near the westJrail and his legs across
the east rail. ,
A summons was at once sent‘ for a
physician, and Dr. Burnell responded.
Later the railroad company telegraphed
for Medical Examiner Burke. The in-
jured man was carried home, but lived
01in a short time. A telegram- was
sent to his father in Danbnry, and the
train due in South Norwalk at 9:15, was
held fifteen minutes for him. He arriv-
ed about half an hour before his son
passed away. ,,
The young man’s injuries consisted of
concussion of the braima fracture of
the left arm. several of his ribs were
broken, and there were internal injuries
on the left side. These demonstrate al-
most positively that the man was walk-
ing between the main and spur track
toward his home, when he was struck
from behind. An engine with a string
of freight cars preceding it, backed to
Wilson Point at 12 o'clock Saturday
night, and it is presumed that who: our
struck the man, who probably did not
think the car was so near him. Under-
taker Raymond took charge of the body
and had it transferred to his undertak-
ing rooms.
The deceased was born May 22, 1876,
in Orange, N. J. His mother is buried
in Newark, and the remains will be
taken to the latter place for interment.
It seems to invariably happen that
three violent or sudden deaths follow
each other in quick succession, and this
was the third, the first being the un-
known man killed in the Rowaytou
out, last Wednesday, and the second
Silas Buttery. who was found dead in
Silver Mine the following day.
The body will remain at the under-
taker's until Wednesday morning, when
there will be service from St. Mary’s
church at 8 o‘clock.
ONE LOOK ENOUGH.
..—-~--
A lions Dumps Ilia Timers and Hides From
a ilerssless Wagon.
As Joseph 0. Hyatt and T.
J. Kerr, of Westport, were driving
back from Norwalk, Saturday
night, they encountered the horse-
lens wagon, which belongs in Bridgeport,
at the foot of the hill near Pout Swamp.
The spirited horse which Mr. Kerr was
driving gave one good look at the ap-
proaching wagon, which was u not of
monster he did not approve of,aud turn-
ed so quickly thathe overturned the
buggy, imprisonlng Mr. Hyatt and Mr.
Kerr underneath. Then freeing him-
self from the carnage. the horse ran
across the road and thrust his head into
aclump of bushel. One of the men in
the steam wagon ran quickly to the an-
lliatunce of the unfortunate men and
helped them right up the buggy, tie up
the cmbm and straighten the dash-
board, which was heat flat.
Neither of the men was injured, but
one of them laughingly remarked after-
wards that if boneless wagons were
coming into vogue he should be very
careful about driving to Norwalk in
future. “l never saw a horse turn
around so quickly before. One look was
enough for him.”

Harry Merrill wheeled. to New Haven

Nearly every day several ladies may
be seen in Union Park taking their
first lessons in cycling.
Thirty-five Nor-walk wheelmen, led
by H. A. Saunders, enjoyed a bicycle
ride to Stamford, yesterday, returning
home by Wily of New Canaan.
Among the recent entries received for
the Irvington-Milburn road race was
one from a woman, Miss Emily W.
Dielts, of Long Island City. This is the
first time in the history of the contest
that a woman has expressed a desire to
ride in the Decoration Day twenty-five
miles contest. Her entry, of course, will
not be accepted. ’
W. Fred Dobbs, foreman of the com-
posing room of the Danbury News, rode
to Nor-walk on his wheel, yesle ay and
called on his cousin, Mrs. H. . . Gard‘
nor, of UnionPark,and on John Canfiekl,
of Cross street, formerly employed 'in
the New office. Mr. Dobbs’ cyclometer
registered twenty-two and one-tenths
miles, and he covered the distance in
one hour Trad fifty minutes.
The consequences of the mania for
bicycling are far reaching indeed when
lace makers in England find reason to
complain that it effects their industry
disastrously. The severe cycling cos-
tume requires no decoration, and there
is so much time spent on the wheel that
ladies have little use for the more dressy
gowns. Jewelers, too, contend ~ that
cycling has a serious effect on their busi-
uses, as all the earnings, which were
once boarded and finally spent for some
coveted jewel or gold triuket,are now
put into bicycles.
The question as to whether‘Sunday
bicycle riding is wicked or not is receiv-
ing considerable attention just now.
The matter has been brought to notice
particularly by the strictures of the Rev.
J. LeeMitchell, of the Grand Avenue
Congregational church of New Haven.
Interviews printed in the Waterbury
American, Saturday, with the loading
clergyman of that city, resulted in
unanimous recommendation of Sunday
wheeling, providing church is not no-
glected, and the outing is of an orderly
character. The Sunday runs of the
Waterbury Wheel club to neighboring
cities was condemned. Rev. W. J.
Slocum, formerly of St Mary’s church,
Norwalk, had just come in from a plane-
ant ride in the country behind his hand-
some horse, when askud by an American
reporter: “What do you think of Sun-
day bicycle rilling?" There was the
suspicion of a twitch in the corner of
Father Slocnm’s right eye, as he said:
“Bicycles? Bicycles? Why I don't know
anything about bicycles." "But—-” be-
gun the reporter, when Father Slocum
again interrupted in his genial way
with a determined refusal to go into
print on the bicycle question. “You
can sayl have no opinion to give on
bicycles or bloom—~, no opinion on the
wheel," and before the reporter know
how it happened, he was being bowed
politely out. .

“ Editor of The Sentinel: You invite a
friend to visit you for the first time. As
you come up together from the city on
the train, you say to him, wishing to
make a good impression, “South Nor-
walk is an enterprising, public spirited
little city. We spent last year on and
in our streets over ten thousand dollars."
While you drive him from the station
through any of its approaches and over
any of ' our streets to your home, will
you be surprised at his request. to see
some of the streets on which this gener-
ous sum was expended? As your friend
halts between the two opinions of your
truthfulness and the ability of your city
to gotuny return for its money, you re-
mark, by way of explanation, that you
believe a good deal of it was spent on.

he holds himself with both hands to the
seat and says, sotto voce, it was such a
pity that the stones have not been buried
with the money.
For twenty-five years we have been
pouring money into our streets, as we
miscall them, and with what result?
When we begun they were more coun-

ceptions to emphasize the rule; morahses

our hard-earned dollars until they vie in
number with the loose abounding stones
that render comfortable use of our high-
ways in any form impossible? The army
of 'wheelmen in this city is about to
answer this pertinent question in the
negative. The wheel started as a young
man’s fad; then we had to tolerate it as
a young woman's fad. and now, as if by
magic, it has spread over the whole
civilized world, and has become a most
important factor in both our urban and
country life. It is here to stay. Like-
Bonquo’s ghost, it will not "down,"

may bring in the future, it is ready and
