flight. Secretary and Treasurer George
W. Mansfield appeared with . a map of
the proposed layout. At 8 o'clock the
hearing cloaked. No action was taken

. by the Council in the matter.

Mayor Wheeler read a message to the
(bunch in reference to the widening
and paving of Wall street. He thought
the work should be done in conjunction
with. the Mill mu unprovements. The
mayor favored ll: lug t‘ie street with
vitrified brick. Not only the Wall
street bridge should be widened, but the
entire building owned by M. Ratehford,
on the east side of the bridge, should is
removed, thus making the entrance t )
Main street much more inviting. If the
city owned this property it might open

 

a way for the better disposal
of sewage. He thought a por-
tion of the Lockwood luilding

should also be removed, and changes
made in the sidewalks in front of
Mrs._ Julia Wilson’s building. He
suggested that the city engineer prepare
a map of that particular locality, show-
ing the relative positions of the property
lines and street railway tracks, which
make this point particularly dangerous.
The mayor said there was no question
that the work "could be done cheaper
now than ever before, and it would
furnish work to men out of employ-
ment,’ besides improving a street that
called fprth the severest condemnation
from every one, In closing, Mayor
Whealer wishedto the city charter.
He 'said many improvements could he
made, and that it was not too early to
refer it tea competent committee for
revision, that it might be ready for the
next session of the Legislature.

Upon motion of Con icilman Kent, it
was voted that a special city meeting be
held at the Town House. September 28,
at 8 o'clock, to consider the advisability
and to direct the City Council to cause
Wall street to be widened on the south
side at such points as the meeting might
determine upon: to pave Wall street
from the Danbury depot to Mill Hill,
and to appropriate the necessary money
therefor.

On motion, Councilmen Boyer, Kent
and Bill were appointed a committee to
meet with the mayor and discuss the
advisability of appointing a committee
to revise the charter.

The Council granted the Norwalk
Street Railway company a layout up
Mill Hill, practically in the center of the
street, and relocated the Tramway com-
pany's tracks parallel to them, and vet-
ed to give the Tramway notice to
change its rails as soon as practicable.

Hope Hose company's house was des-
ignated as the city polling place for the
coming election The usual election no-
tices were ordered printed.

The condition of defective sidewalks
was discussed, but no action was taken.

The first witness in the Honnecker ap-
poul hearing before the commits oners,
this morning, was General Charles Olin-
stczid, who valued the property at slip
.300. He thought it would be damaged
one—half by the proposed out. On cross-
examinatiou he said he valued the land
at $75 a front foot; building, $750; oven,
$800.

A J. Meeker, an ex-member of the city
Board of Relief, valued the property at
333,000. lie thought it would be dam-
aged $l,500 by the cut.

Bradley S. Keith, a member of the
town Board of Belief, valued the prop-
erty at $3,000. He said he had passed
the property on his way to church, but
had never examined it. On cross-exam-
ination he informed Attorney Gray that
he went to church as often as he deemed
advisable for the salvation of his soul.
Thus fnrhehad endeavored to get an
honest living, minded his own business,
and did not dabble in real estate or

Mr. Wilson produced his records,

Attorney Lockwood recalled Miss

Oystermen Open the Dredging Season
Under Favorable Conditions.

PLENTY OF SET AT 8000 PRICES.

.M... -. ...... .9.

Thus Far it lies Proved the Best You the on-
ter Fishermen liavs Ever Experienced—
Thsy Ara Malling Big Wages and Are

"'PPY-

Civil Engineer David G. Sanford, of
the Shell Fisheries Commission, has vis«
ited the natural oyster beds oil' Strat-
ford, Bridgeport, Raisin Point and Fish-
er’s Island, within the past few days.
This is the third year in which the boun-
daries of the natural beds have been
marked by buoys and Mr. Sanfordhas
devoted a part of the past week to that
work. The inclemency of the weather
interfered considerably with the work.
but it was satisfactorily accomplished.

The season of dredging on the nut
nral beds named opened last Thursday'
under conditions which promise to make
this the best year the oyster fishermen
have ever experienced. Old oystermen
who have scraped the surface of the
different natural beds for years say they
never have seen a time when the condi~
tions were so good as they are now.
The young “set" on the beds off Bridge-
port are in ahealthy condition: there
is an abundance of them, and they
bring a good price. The oysters are
this year's set and all small, but the
fishermen are finding them in large
quantities. .

It is estimated that there were from
ninety to 150 craft fishing on the beds
Thursday. the biggest fleet that was
ever seen there. Up in the Strati‘ord
river the small boats are finding the
oysters in good numbers and in good
condition.

Over one hundred craft of various
descriptions were on the Roton Point
and Fisher's Islands beds, Thursday.
The number of boats was never known
to be so large on these beds. The young
set from the beds of Bridgeport are sel.
ling at an average of twenty-five cents a
bushel, and the fishermen are making
big wages now. On the Roton Point
and Fisher's lslund beds the growth is
mostly that. of one-yoar-old oysters,
. which sell of an average of fifty cents a
bushel. Uil"billll brought in seventy-
flvc bushels of them the first day and
the fishermen are highly pleased with
the prospects.

They are hoping that the fall storms
willbo of such a character as not to
disturb the beds and say that if that
hope is realized more oysters will be
.tuken from the natural beds this year
than cverbeforc. The light winds of
Friday and Saturday made the fishing
less effective.

A HORSE DIES FROM Gale's.

He Was Separated From His Mate and
Expired In a Short Time.

The emotional life of a horse is remark-
able. There are instances on record where
the death of the horse has been traced di-
rectlyto grief. Ono instance is called to
mind which occurred more thnn 20 years
ago. A circus had been performing in the
little town of Unionvlllo, Pa, when one of
the trained horses sprained one of his legs
so that he. could not trrrs'el. He was taken
to the hotel and put in a box stall. The leg
was bandaged, and he was made as com-
fortable as possible.

He ate his food and was apparently con-
tented nntll about midnight, when the
circus begun moving outef town Then he
became restless and trumped and whinniod.
As the caravan moved past the hotel he
seemed to rmllm that he was being desert-
ed, and his anxiety and distress became
pitiful. lie would stand with his (airs
pricked in nn‘attitudo of infensclisfenlng,
and then, as his ears caught the sound of
the retiring wagons he would rush as best
he could with his injured leg from one
side of the stroll to the other, pushing at
the door with his nose and making every
effort to escape. The stubleman, who was
n stranger to him, tried to soothe him,
but to no purpose. He would not be com-
fox-ted.

Lang after all sounds of the circus had
reusml his agitation continued. The sweet
poured from him in streams, and he quiv-
cn'd in to cry port of the body. Finally the
nobleman went to the house, woke up the
proprietor and told him he believed the
horse would die if some of the circus
horses were not brought back to keep him
company. At about daylight the proprietor
mounted a horse and rode after the circus.
lie overtook it 10 or 12 miles away, and
the groom who had charge of the injured
horse returned with him. When they reach-
ed the stable, the horse was dead.

The stablcmnn said that he remained for
nearly an hour perfectly still and with ev-
ery sense apparently strained to the ut-
most tension. and then. without making a
sign, fell and died with scarcely a strug‘
gle. The veterinarian who was called re-
marked after the circumstances were told
him that unquestionably the horse died
from grief. If fl is ptlsslblc for all the men-
tal faculties of the horse to become abun-
doncd ingriof to such an extent as to cause
death, how much more does he appeal to
the sympathy and regard of mankind!—
