Councilman Pearson thought it would
be. well to have the hearing. and at the
same time one on the Tramway com-
pany's petition to go through the street.

Councilman Hutchinson suggested
making a fifty-foot roadway as for as
the residence property on both sides of
the street, and a forty-five foot roadway
where the railroad abuts on the street.
The trolley tracks could go on the west
side at the lower end of the street, doing
away with a sidewalk there. .

It was voted to have a public hearing
on the South Main street layout and
also on the Cedar street layout, from
Fairfield to West avenues, Wednesday,
November 4th.

Councilman Kendall was appointed a
committee to interview T. I. Raymond
regarding the layout of Bayview avenue.

LIBRARY DIRECTOR BEARD RESIHNS.

Rev. Gerald B. Beard sent the follow-
ing communication to John J. Cava-
nagh. secretary of the directors of \the
Public Library:

"Asl find that other duties prevent
my attendance at the meeting of the
board of directors of the Library, and do
not wish to remain nominally on the.
board without being of some real service
to the public. I hereby respectfully re~
sign my position of director.”

The Council adopted the following
preamble and resolution:

“Whereas, Rev. Gerald H. Beard,
who was recently appointed by thi-
Board a director of the South Norwalk
Library and Reading Room, is unable to
attend to the duties pertaining to said
office, and has resigned said pos1tion;
therefore.

“Resolved. That we do hereby accept
said regisnation, and sincerely regret
the inability of said appointee to per~
form the duties pertaining to said
office."

The mayor appointed George H. Vos-
burgh, Jr., to fill the vacancy.

(ruusosv'r eraser snmwanks.

Councilman Ferris favored making
the sidewalk on the north side of Cres-
cent street nine feet in width so that th-
telegraph poles would not have to be
changed.

Councilman Hutchinson objected, as
it would narrow the street. where the
most travel was, too much.

A resolution was passed that the side-
walks be made nine feet wide, rescind
ing the former vote.

HOME GANITARY MATTERS.

Councilman Kendall reported that
there was a house at 17 Union street
that hadu galvanized iron pipe in its sau-
itary arrangements, and that it was just
such a place in which diphtheria broke
out some time ago. He moved that the
house. owned by the Charles O'Rourke
estate, be out in safe condition. It was
so voted by the Council.

Mr. Kendall further reported that it
was the intention of the Health Board
to take better care of the school children
during the winter. The object was to
have all cases of sickness reported, and
disease checked as far as possible. He
hoped noon to have an inspector ap-
pointedtomeke tests of milk totalled
about the city.

TROUBLE FROM A RIWEB.

Councilman Ferris reported that some
time ago A. Belmont requested him to
gotohis hat factory to see the damage
done by water from the sewer. The
trouble. he said, was with a small
branch sewer near McQuhae’s black-
smith shop, which had become stapled
up. Engineer Briggs, who made an
investigation. had reported to him that
he found the branch sewer eighteen
inches lower than the trunk sewer, and
he thought a manhole would olmete the
difficulty.

Councilman Hutchinson reported that
thsbrsnchwass private sewer, put in
to drain the Board lot.

novmo BUILDINGS.

ChiefEngineeiE. v. Baker spoke 15
the Council on the matter of moving
buildings within the five limits. He
desired the laws interpreted in this
matter, and also in connection with the
erection of new chimneys, heating sp-
paratus in houses, etc.

Councilman Ferris said permission
Was given to move 11 building from Pine
street, which is outside the fire limits,
to Bpringwood. He thought he was
right in doing so. It later developed
that the house was not moved within
the fire limits at all, and out of the juris-
diction of the fire department

The Council adoptedan amendment
to the existing ordinance regarding
contagicus diseases, and: ordered that
occupants of houses or buildings where
such diseases are shall report to the
health officer within three hours after
the discovery thereof.

REV. CDOPER REAPPOINTED.

Meeting With Phenomenal Succest in Wells-
hurg, N. Y., Against Great Odds.

At the recent session of the Central
New York conference, held at Towanda.
Pa., Bishop Newman did a very grace»
ful act in reappointing Rev. Rufus T.
Cooper as pastor of the Methodist Epis.
oopal church at Wellsburg, The
members and friends of the church gave
Brother Cooper and family a uholc
hearted reception in the parlors of the
church. A bountiful supper was served
to a large company of friends. The new
presiding elder of"the district, E. M.
Mills, D. D., and Mrs. Mills graced the
mansion with their presence. Dr. Mills
made a very felicitous speech, congratu-
lating the people of Wellsbnrg over the
return of their popular pastor. A clip-
ping from the, report of the Elmira dis-
trict, made at the recent session of the
conference. regarding Pastor Cooper’s
year’s work at Wellsburg, roads as fol-
lows:

“At Wellsburg the pastor has been
phenomenally successful, though with
great odds against him in luck of means
in the charge, but few members and
much discouragement.

“He has grappled with the power of a
giant with the difficulties in the case
and has succeeded in winning a most
signal victory. The new and beautiful
parsonage commenced last year has
been brought to completion and elo-
gantly furnished. together with all the
modern conveniences and decorations.
l‘u accomplish this great work Brother
Cooper has toiled unremittingly, has
spared no pains. has proven himself a
master in finance and has succeeded.

"The church edifice has been painted,
decorated, the windows reconstructed.
chandeliers new, the yard graded, and
Wellsburg church stands today upon her
feet ready for future active service. a
pleasant appointment for any man.

”Fifty persons have been converted
and the conference collections are at
high water mark.”

Tha present conference your bids fair
to eclipse the record of last year as both
pastor and people are full of hope and
are working zealously together.-—1‘llu1ira

YOUNG PEOPLE’S socInL.

Papers on lunior Vlork Followed by Literary
Exercises and Refreshments.

The first social under the direction of
the new committee of the goung Petr
[1111' s society was held last slight in the
parlors of the South Norwalk Congrega-
tional church. The rooms were well
filled, and the occasion was a delightful
one.

The special subject was “Junior
Work." Papers were read by Miss
Helen Curtis, Mrs. Andrew V. Heath
and Mrs. Gerald 11. Board. They were
very entertaining, as well as full of
practical suggestions for help along this
line of work. lnterspersed were musi-
cal selections: Cornet solo. "Better By
and By," by L. B. Mitchell, Howard A.
Tilly; vocal solo, “Don’t BeCross," Miss
Louise Abendroth. and violin solos. Miss
Jessie Bronson. The selections were so
well rendered as to call forth hearty up
planes.

W. J. Leland, on behalf of the flower
committee, presented each member of
the society with an Easter lily bulb,
which, it is expected, they will grow
and bring the flowers to church at each
Easter service.

' After the programme light refresh-
ments were served. Mrs. Beard and
Mrs. H. 0. Bailey presided at the choco-
late urus. Members of the social com-
mittee. Mrs. J. Milton Coburn, Mine
Edythe 8. Gates. and Charles R. fiel-
rner, were assisted by Mrs. T. ‘A. Du-

FIGURES Of A ,QlllEl CANVASS.

A Letter los South licrwallt flan Gives Ionic
Astounding Figures. Showing its Free Bil-
vsr Ticket will not to Successful in to
Exceed Eight States.

Thomas 1. Raymond. of South Nor-
w.alk. has received the following letter,
summarizing the present political situa~
tion in New York and many other states
of the Union:

Osman. N. Y., October 15. 1896.

My Dear T. I : Knowing your interest
in the pending political contest.I thought
perhaps you would be interested in hear-
ing the result of a canvass of the Union

that a number of the newspaper boys
have made.

To start with, I have been in every
county of this state and personally seen
the various chairmen of the different
county committees. The result of the
figures that I have made astonished me
very much, and yet I am'forced to think
that they are correct. Unless I have
made some mistake, or my information
in those counties where I have no
personal knowledge of the field is at
fault, we shall com the great Empire
state for McKinley, Hobart and so 1nd
money by upwards of 325.000. I shall
not be surprised if the figures go as high
as $00,000, as I am told everywhere that
there are :1 large number of voters who
will not say what ticket they propose to
vote. It is my impression, also, that we
shall give Black and our state ticket at
least 250,000 or 300,000 plurality.

The boys in your state tell me that
Connecticut will give the Republican
ticket a handsome plurality and there
seems to bo no reason to doubt that all
New England will be in the procession.

New Jorsoy is secure, and of course
no one over thinks about old Penn
svlvaniu Bryan
cannot possibly any state
north of the Potomac and cast of
the Ohio rivers. This includes both
Delaware and Maryland.

Alcttrr received this morning from
Joseph 1’. Smith, who is acting as Major
Moliinley‘s private secretary. informs
me that Ohio will give her favorite son

going against us.
carry

the largest plurality that she has over
Barrott
Eastman. editorof the Chicago Timos~

given a presidential candidate.

Herald. writes me that Chicago city will
give the Republican ticket upwards of
40,000 and that the state of Illinois will
roll up close to 135,000. .

From Indianapolis letters tell the
good news that 50,000 is the smallest
figure we need look for from the Hoos-
iers,whilo a cousin in Iowa gives me
the interruption that seems to warrant
his claim that that state is also out of
the doubtful column.

William Swanton. of the Louisville
(Kentucky) Courier-Journal. says that
old Kentucky wilibcin lino, and that
there is understood tabs a deal among
the sound'money men and the Republi-
cans ofthat state that will result in a
consolidation of their votes at the polls
for McKinley, and later in the legisla-
ture. unless the Republicans are in con-
trol. and able to elect a United States
senator to succeed Joe Blackburn, then
the Republicans will return the compli-
ment and vote for John C. Carlislc. The
only thing Swnnton says that all the
people of the state do not like is the as
screens that Breckinridge is sure to be
returned to the House.

Senator Elkins' son miles 11111 from
Wheeling, West Virginia, that we are
to count on the six electoral votes from
there for Republicanism.

Herbert L. Anderson, of the Ocala
(Florida) Journal. tells me that if they
can caused in getting a fair count in
1115:1111, that they will surely

Texas, humor, is in the doubtful list.

Arthur 1:. new, of the Detroit Free
Press, places Michigan at a “safe figure."

and 111 sure “that it cannot possibly be
lost. " i

From both $1. Louis and Kansas City
comes the information that Missouri is
in line and. that the reports that the
state will go to Bryan are all bluster.
The Kansas City letter also says that
Kansas will not be led away by the free
silver mirage. I put Kansas in the
doubtful list. Utah will be with us if
the people in Salt Lake City can be re-
lied upon. The information that they
send me is very encouraging. From the
Pacific coast comes assurances that
“everything west of the Rockies except
Nevada will vote for sound money.”
Fred McLaughlin writes me from
Helena that Montana is going to stay in
the ranks. Nebraska is certainly
going to beat “Wandering Willie”
in his own county. city, ward and
precinct. Both the Dakotas are with
111, also, and so are Wisconsin and Min-
ncsota.

Since starting this letter I have re-
ceived another communication from
Swanton from Louisville. He tells me
that he is just home from a trip cover
ing the entire state of Tennessee and
that it is his best judgment from all that
he can learn that Tennessee will vote for
McKinley.

This canvass has been quietly made
by a number of our newspaper boys.

All the follows that have taken part in

political estimates, and I am much
pleased on figuring up this aftornoou to
find that in all probability the Repudia-
tion ticket will not be successful in to
exceed eight of the Commonwealths.

OTHER PEOPLE’S VIEWS

opinions on Questions of Timely inter-
est in the Common People.

THE lllEllT OF THE ROAD.

A Trolley Rider Discusses the iisellsssness of
ammo, the Duty of Citizens on Fuel
and the Rupunsitihiy el Drivers
of Vehicles.

Editor of the Sentinel: Your paper of
Friday contains 11 letter from "A young
lady cyclist." written. apparently, as a
defense of the bicycle rider who knock-
ed down a lady as she was leaving a
West avenue trolley car. She says:
“The bicycle has the right of way as
much as car or carriage." Is that true?
The bicycle is a recent invention and its
rights on the highway have not been
the subject of as many legal decisions as
is the case with other vehicles. The
law books are full of cases setting forth
the rights of cars, carriages and pedes»
triads. The effect of the decision is. in
substance, that the cars have the super
ior right of way, and it is the duty of
citizens, whether on foot or in vehicles,
to give unobstructed pasmge to the
cars. Two reasons are assigned: First,
that the car cannot leave the track and
turn out for others, and, second. public
convenience demands the car service at
reasonable speed without unnecessary
obstruction. Drivors of vehicles must

 

 

leave the track when they become awarel

that a failure to do so would impede the
progress of the our. The general minis
applied with greater force to pedestrians~
for they can stop or turn in their course
instantly. Therefore, the greatest dili—
gence is expected of those on foot. The
common use of the street is ' granted to
all, yet their rights are by no means
equal. All must use cam notto inter-
fere with others, but the law seems to
expect more of those who have the great-
est command over their movements.

Now, apply this idea to bicycles and
sot-what their rights may be. Their
movements are as still as death and as
rapid as thought. They can cross and
redress the street in a second. A nar—
row way only is needed for their pas—
sage. Does not this very facility of
movement impose on their riders the
highest responsibility, not only for their
own safety, but in keeping clear of
other vehicles and pedestrians? Au nu-
skillml rider should not venture on tho
principal streets. The public have a
right to presume that he or she can
manage the machine. The ordinary
rI-sponsibility of the situation rests on
the rider anyway, and an added respon-
sibilitydne to inexperience. Many of
the riders on our streets not only show
otter disregard or ignorance of all rules
of the road. but lack ordinary courtesy.

Occasionally some “road bug" with a
foam crowds a \vlieoluinn into a (llEt'll,
and is thereupon brought before a judge
and very properly fined. To some
whoolmen this means that tho bicyclists
not only have :1 right on the road. but 11
right to all of it if they can only enforce
it by reckless scorching. or by riding in
droves spread out. over the whole high-
way. It is fortunate indeed that tho
bicycle. rider usually suffers most in a
collision, otherwise the publ1c at largo
Would be at the mercy of a few thought-
less, reckless and irresponsible mode-ups.

Even our fair young lady cyclist. who
writes to teach pedestrians their duty.
and incidentally to recall some of tho
triillti of the bicycle riders, would be
surprised to learn that her own letter
shows she is a fit subject for the police
court. She writes that on one occasion
she rode at 11 man in such a way that ho
was so frigatencd as to ”full right dates
in front of her wheel." She only saved
herself from injury by dismounting
How about the 11111.11? He, doubtless, was
having 11 very enjoyable time. One
judge says: “It is an’assunlt to ride
dangerously near a person, thus causing
him to fear injury to his person." Some
men would have given our lady rider an
opportunity to explain in court what
her intentions were. Why was she rid»
iug directly at him, ringing shell for him
to “cleartho truck," when the slightest
turn of her handlebar would have placed
her in 11 moment far to one side.

Our highways are for all. Equal
right of use is not equal right of way.
All must respect the rights of others,
and must at once give up all their own
right of way or position to avert an
evidently impending accident. U odor
ordinary circumstances the exact course
and speed of a trolley our or a team of
horses can be foreseen sufficiently for all
the purposes of safety for 11 bicyclist.
Even the position of pedestrians on
crosswalks can be easily calculated, and
in many cases the ringing of a bell for

.people to hurry up or to stop. is unnec-

essary and offensive. although some-
times required by city ordinance. _

A trolley carts large enough for" any
cyclist to see. When it‘stops, or even
is in slow motion. peeple are usually
gettingonoroif. They haveaoisar

legal right to the use of the street. and
the otherpassengers have the right to
demand that the ear shall not be unnee-
eesariiy delayed. This use of the street
by the pedestrian is only for a moment.
while he or she passes from the car to
the sidewalk, and it is common sense
that other trailic should stop for the

or convenience of the passenger.

Under such circumstances the passage
of a bicyclist near the car at a high rate
of speed would seem tube a clear in-
fraction of the rights of others and a
casualty from this not to make him
guilty of intentional assault. Anotice
topasseugers in the cars is no excuse
for him. He can see the car stopped
and knows the reason. The passenger
cannot hear the wheelman, frequently
cannot see him, and more frequently
cannot judge of his rate of speed. The
wheelman's course is undefined. and no
adequate calculation can be made as to
where he will pass. In almost every
case the entire responsibility, equitably
and legally, rests on the wheelman.

' Yours truly,
TROLLEY Riven.
