hr the Distracted Father.
Edna Twinkle .Ilttle daughter of
Mr. an M .' Grant B. Rackett. or
Rowayton, was drowned yesterday at-
ternoon in Rowayton harbor.
Mr. Rackett was engaged during a
portion, of the . getting his boat in
readiness to, Bridgeport early
this morning to a work on the nat-
ural oyster beds. little girl was
sent from her home in Raymond street
to Craw & L'Hommedleu's dock, wnere
Mr. Beckett's boat lay. with a small
pome tools. When
she rt dock her father and
gone. On his return the basket was
found on the dock. .
It was at once surmised that the
child had attempted to cross on a
string piece from one dock to another,
had lost her balance and fallen over-
board. The neighborhood was alarm-
ed, and nearly every resident turned
out to assist in the search for the lit-
ie girl. Those who had boats and
dredges went thoroughly over the wa-
ters of the harbor, while others scour-
ed the highways and lands in the vic-
inity. even visiting Roton Point and
other places where it was thought pos-
sible the child might have strayed.
The search was continued until late
in the evening, with no sign of the
efforts of the Rowayton people lag
rewarded. At 9:40 o'clock a telephone
mead?! was sent to the South Nor-
waik police headquarters that it was
feared the child had been kidnapped,
and‘giving a description of her. The
police did all they could to find the
girl, but got no trace of her hereabout.
Early this morning Mr. Rackett, who
had continued the hunt unceasingiy.
brought the body of his little daugh-
ter to the surface of trio water. not far
from the spot where it was supposed
she-hnd fallen overboard. Medical
Examiner Huntington was notified and
he visited the scene. He gave n ver-
dict of accidental drowning. The body
was removed to the parents' home.
Edna was the eldest child of Mr. and
Mrs. Rackett. and was between seven
and eight years of age. She was a
bright and lovable little girl. and had
many friends in town. who extend to
the bereaved parents their sincerest
sympathy.
The funeral will be held tomorrow
afternoon at 3:31) o'clock.

Captain Coates has decided to go to
Chicago on the 18th of October. to w
gums the duties of the new position he
has..been invited to fill. and of which
million was made exclusively in this
per a few days ago. Whether he will
sever his connection with the ConaoIi-i
dated permanently or remove from!
Stamford is not certain. but it is surel
he has had an offer that he may fear
it his duty to accept. The fact that
he was invited to fill the position is in
itself a high testimony to his ability,
which has been so well and so often
demonstrated while he has been in the
employ of the Consolidated. Mr.
Coatea' departure will be sincerely rc-
gretted by a large number of pawn
in this city. who can onlyu-cgard it as
’a distinct loss to Stamford.

there he met Wallace Mo uhae. Ever-

Messrs. Tollss andHintn are jointly

ment of its kind in the city. but the
young men have become very popular
‘ and leading business men. They could
not do enough for the Connecticut del-
egates. .1 . .
Mr. Clark brought home wi him
many curiosities, among them niin-
er's cap and lamp. a piece of coal which
he mined himself four hundred feet un-
der ground. badges. pictures of coal
breakers, and a collection of delegates
cards. which represent every state and
many of the largest cities‘in the (in-
ion. One of the most interesting
things is a souvenir beck. issued by
the citizens of Scranton in honor of
the Association, and which contained
photographs and a description of the
many attractive places in and about
the city.
The 'Scra Times reproduces the
fnmmisphotograph of Mr. Clark. with
his little daughter Helen in his mail

aikors. The reading paragraph un’
d r the picture says: "Mr. Clark is

mgn in attendance at the convention.
It is the first time hsihss attended a

The Connecticut Shell run Commis-
sion will this afternoon leave Bridge-
port for an afternoon's inspection of
the natural oyster beds off Bridgeport
and Stratford. It is expected that
Governor Lounsbury will be present.
Accompanying the commission will
be Clerk McLellan Matthewnon. of New

Bridgeport. South Norwalk and New
Haven to the number of about fifty.
The open season for the natural beds
begins tod y. and it is expected that
fully 200. boats will begin dredging
in the at is off Bridgeport. The
commiss one examination of these beds
indicate that the set has ,been a good
one and this fact is particularly em-
phasized by the increased number of
licenses taken out by boats for the
carrying on of this work, about 250
licenses having been granted this year.

Woodward's Successor.

The Republican probate convention
to nominate a candidnts W*~JIIIIKP of
tho Norwalk Probate dis rim in fl 1 the
unexpired term of Judg ‘Wond rtl
has been called for 2 o'cl it on the f-
ternoon of September 21. l
The question which now\bothers/thc
authorities is who shall ca l the spec-
ial probate election designated by the
governor to be held on the some day
as the annual town election. Some
time ago the statute law providing
that n constable should/call elections
was repealed. and t e power was gir-
cn to the town clerk; but there is an-
other clause unrepealcd which provides
that a constable may call a special el-
ection. though it was clearly the in-
tcnt of the substitute law to repeal
both sections. ‘
When the matter of power is settled
the question of expense in providing
a separate polling place will have to be
considered. The town clerk is of the
opinion that both elections held in the
some polling place would cause unlim-
Iied confusion and that‘other quarters
should be secured. If this is dom-
there will be the expense of the polling
place and the lumber and erection of
booths. .
If the polling place is the same there
will be two envelopes, two separate
tickets and in all probabillly a license
vote. It can readily be seen. that with
these conditions many votes would nec-
essarily be wrongly deposits-d.
