' The election of Councilmen was next
in order, and Attorney Light stated that
as the present Board had performed
most faithful service, and their pay was
only criticisms, he moved that five be
nominated again, one of the Board, Mr.
Hutchinson, having been promoted.

S. C. Palmer thought this method

would not be wise. Of course he under-
stood well that the attorney thought the
present Council had worked acceptably.
They were instrucmd to do things at the
last annual city meeting. however, that
they have not done. That was to estab-
lish a sinking fund for the water works.
Councilman'Pearson stated that Mr.
Palmer but made a mistake. At the
city meeting they were asked to set
aside the present year’s income as a
sinking fund, and this they were doing.
Mr. Palmer kept reiterating his state-
ment so often that he actually believed
it himself.
Mr. Palmer stated that there was not
a word on the records of the Council or
Water Board to show that this had been
done.

Attorney Light hazl made the motion he
did. He had held the office himself and
knew that they received more cuffs and
kicks than anyone else in the city. They
are men who have been looking out for
the interests thlre city, just as much as
01Wr has, and he believed they
ought to be nominated again. (Ap-
plause.)

Councilmen F. N. Ferris and O. E.
Weed both declined a nomination.
Their protest went unnoticed and the
nominees selected were Messrs. Hatch,
Ferris, Weed Kendall, and Pearson.

Mr. Light then named Edgar H. For,
who had been in the oil two years
ago, and filled the office with credit, as
the sixth councilman,and he was unami-
nously nominated.

C. W. Stow nominated Joseph Taylor
for city committee, and the caucus 11p~
proved it. ‘

Mr Bullock moved that the city 1- out
mitten have power to fill any vacant ice,
and the caucus adjourned

The special commission composed of
Charles s. Cahfield, Hiram K. Scottand
Hen . , who were appointed by
Judge Andrews to re-appraise the dam-
ages awarded Miss Mary E. Honneckcr
arid P. H. Dwyor by the Council of j the
City of Ngrwalk, met at Bridgeport,
yesterday, and decided the cases, award-
ing Miss Houneckor $2,500, an increase
of $700 and Mr. Dwyer nothing, as the
committee found he had sustained no
damage.

Thccommittec's fees and expenses in
the Honncckur case are: - C. S. Caniield,
$148.40; Hiram K. Scott, $910.50; Henry
Lee, 78.40. In the Dwyer case the fees
are: C. S. Canfiold, $12.40; Hiram K.
Scott, $23.70, and Henry Lee, $22.10.

Attorney Joseph A. Gray represented

the appellants and Attorney E. M.
Lockwood the appellecs.
Considerable surprise is expressed by
some of Miss Honneckcr's Witnesses,
who thought surely that the commission
would give her at least $3,000 or $3,500.
Others thought she would get less. The
result of the decision in the Dwycr case
Was not unexpected, as Mr. Dwycr did
not put up a stiff claim.

This now settles all difiiculty in the
Mill ll1ll matters and work will bopnsh-
cl forward rapidly.

 

Damage to Oyster Beds.

Oystormeu feared that Monday night's
storm would damage the natural beds
on this harbor, but yesterday they were
more hopeful. It was blowing so hard
outside that none of the [mats ventured
out, and therefore just what damage
was done has not been learned. The
wind bl1-1v angnlc from the northeast

done it will not be serious. With favor-

POPIII.AIIA {MINIMA-
Brlpns’ Co coy Company.

The Briggs’ Comedy company has
won a warm place 1n the hearts of Nor-
walk theatm- goers, as was evidenced by
the crowded house which greeted them
last night. The play produced was
“Capital Against Labor,” and was one
of the best productions ever witnessedl
at popular prices in Norwalk. The
piece, as its name indicates, deals with
a wealthy manufacturer and his ill paid
laborers. The strike scene in the second
act was exceedingly realistic and touch-
ing. Frederick Seward, as John Curt~
Wright, the laboring men’s friend, won
favor from the start, as did also the
{versatile little actress, Minnie Seward,
who interpreted the character of Kate
Harcourt, the capitalist‘s daughter, in
her own inimitable and channing man-
ner. Mrs. Dr. Potter, who admired
skeletons, hopersonaied by Kathlyn
Davenport, also made a favorable im-
pression, as did Scott Rayinodd, as Dr.
Potter, the jolly hypnotist. James J.
Ryan appeared to advantage as James
Harcourt, the manufacturer, and Mrs.
Harcourt, ,a butterfly of fashion, per-
traycd by Carrie Anderson, ablyassisted
in the play. The other characters were
exceedingly well taken. Tonight the
piece prcscntcd will be “The Convict’s
Daughter.”

An Interesting story at the Play to he Presented

’ The story of Daniel Druco is that of a

blacksmith living on the north coast of

England, and although laid in the time

King Charles, is a thoroughly domestic
story. Jonas Marple, a good—hearted,
honest, hard-Working man, living with
.Dorothy, his wife, in happiness, looking
forward with joy to the promised an'
swcr to his prayer that he might be
blessed with a little child. He had a
store of love in his heart to sot on some
one thing of his own creating. Return-
ing home after an absence of some days,
he finds his hope hopeless, his love love-

less, his life, lifeless. His home
is deserted, lllS wife has left
