The business of Both ct Goldmhmidt
is one of South Norwalk’s leading iL'
dustries. giving employment to npw‘ard
of five huudmd people in the factory and
offices of the firm. The business was
started in a mall way over a dozen
years ago in the building now occupied
by the Nor-walk Silk Mills. This place
became too small several years ago. and
the firm's present handsome building in
Ann street was erected. The capacity
of this factory has been increased from

time to time, making the building one
of the finest for manufacturing purposes

in the state.

tion of“Bardell vs. Pickwick," from
Diokens‘ “Pickwick Papers," given
umber the auspices of St. Joseph’s
Lyceum. It was an admirable inter-
pretation of the comedy, abounding in
wit, drollery and many funny situa-
tions, which. with the well selected
numbers rendered by the Philharmonic
orchestra, constituted a delighfnl enter-
tainment. ,

The leading character. the irrepressi-
ble “Samuel Pickwick.” was taken by

‘ Bardcllflfl Both sustained their roles
with befitting grace.

Paul Schnitzel. Jr. in the role of
“Samuel Weller." was an entertain-

loction entitled “Love Will Find a

Way,” and for an encore gave a “Bur-
lesque Serenade." Both selections were
applauded. ‘

Excellent vocal solos were rendered by
Thomas Cole and John W. Wclile. The
former gave “Will you Forget lilo." and

fought harder for his country than in
the fistic encounter.

The trouble arose over a sword and

in the wand-money celebration after

turn the articles and Mr. Lees has called
him for them several times. Mr. lib-k
has paid no attention to these
demands and Mr. Laces was decidedly
angry when he met Mr. Kirk last night,
and again demanded the return of the
articles.

some time ago. and when you return
that‘you get your sword.” sneered Kiri .

This was a signal for hostilities tl

a blow upon his adversary's jaw. Mr
Kirk made another pass at Mr. Lee's

face, hoping to spollhis complexion. bull

it was parred with Corbett like skill and
