‘The Democratic town convention

for the First and Third Voting Dis- -

tricts was held in the Town-Assembly
Hall, Norwalk. last night, when candi-_
dates for town offices were chosen.
,Frsnk H. Merrill was again unanim-
ously selected as the party candidate
for first‘selectman. The nomination
' for assessor went to William Mitchell.
The fight for registrar in the Third
.Votlng District was settled by the con-
.vention. and John Keogh was again
. nominated. One of the distinguished
visitors of the evening was the Repub-
lican town committeemiln, Francis
Leonard, ,wbo occupied a seat on the
platform. .
The convention was called to order
by Secretary Bernard C. Feeaey, in
the absence of the chairman of the
down committee.
Wilfred Morrison was chosen to pre«
, hide and Mr. Rooney was selected sec-
' rotary of theconvention.
. The-'roll—call showed thirty-one out
,9! thirty-two delegates present.
The first matter taken up was the
blection of delegates to the Democratic
probate convention. A committee was
appointed to bring in the names of
delegates. The committee was James
Toner, John H. Manning and John
Keogh. The names of delegates pre-
sented and unanimously chosen were:
unmet-g. Wilson. T. B. Griffith. J. J.
' Retina and James Sutherland.
“"i At this juncture George B. Tobey in-
haired if the rules of the convention
allowed a delegate to reside in one
district and act as a delegate from
The convention did not see
In! harm in such a matter.

Mr. Tobey contended that it was a
' 'Ioctlonal issue and one in which the
" First Voting District was in no wise
Interested. He thought the East Nor-
:walk delegates should have the right in
”cry instance to choose their own reg-
litter.

The molt of the ballot showed that
I out of twenty-eight votes cast. Mr.

' Keogh had nineteen end Mr. Merritt

Hr. Tobey and his lollowers felt very

.mncb‘ hurt to think that the conven<

H . tion should force a candidate upon his
debgatu, trail was not at all bashfp
in expressing an opinion. .

Town Comlnitteeman Frank H. Mer-
rill was authorized to act as a commit-
tee to fill vacancies that might occur
DI the ticket.

Junies'Toner thought such matters
.were pretty small to bring up at the

t stage of proceedings.
is- Jobn Keogh said he was the man Mr.

. obey was aiming at; but that he re-
. {tied in the district he was a delegate

from. as he could prove by the voting

. r. Tobey responded that the di-
rectory gave his residence as in an—

other district.
lit. Toner ,thought the directory

might err. He said the convention
went by the voting list and not by di—

roctories. .
llr. Tobey thought the East Norwalk

"delegation opposed to Mr. Keogh had

some rights in the convention.

Mr. Toner said sectional differences
should not be recognized by the con-
vention. He then eulogized Mr. Keogh.
flying he was one of the shrewdest

no in that section of the town
and that he had been asked where the
got such a worker. He thought

Iv moon an honor to the convention
and_coatplimented him upon his record

mous choice of the convention for rog-
lstrsr of the First Distrl t.

'- The matter of choosin the registrar
for the Third District was then before
the‘ caucus. it developed that there
we're two candidates. John Keogh, tht
nascent incumbent, and Albert Mer-
r t. “ '

Mr. Tobey addressed the convention
asking that the ,East Norwalk delega-
tion have the right to choose the reg
lsirar for that section as it was is mat.
for which only concerned that district

'Mr. Tobey said there was some cities

tion to Mr. Keogh in toast Norwalll
and that four out of the seven dele-
gates from that section would vote for
Mr. Merritt, rather than for Mr.
Keogh. ' ,

Mr. Toner thought such a matter
was un ecedented and did not think
it advlsa is.

Mr., Keogh denounced the whole ai-
falr as a scheme to down him. He stat-
ed that the delegates did not represent
the feeling of the people of that sec-
tion.

John Jordan. a young man well

Police Inclined to Believe that
John Pattonden was Assault-
ed in his Hen House.

So many suspicious circumstances
have arisen in connection with the find-
lug of John Pattenden, the Broad Riv-
er recluse, locked up in his little home,
apparently critically ill with paraly-
sis, that the Norwalk police are mak-
ing a thorough investigation.

The Sentinel gave an account Mon-
day, of the finding of the old man ly-
ing helpless in one corner of his bed-
room, by two Broad River young men.
and of his subsequent removal to the
hospital. ..

After Pattendcn's arrival at the hos-
pital. the nurses attending him noticed
a bruise on his head. and a closer ex-
amination revealed that his head was
badly bruised. while his back had evi-
dently been battered. There were al-
so other marks of violence on the body.

The old man's head. when he was
found in the house. indicated that he
had been knocked down and assaulted
ln'thc lien house. Possibly his assail.
ants. frightened by what they had
done. dragged the lnsensible form into
Wane, leaving him where he was
ound. . .

The police are inclined to believe
that the old man heard some one in
his chicken coops and went out to in-
vcstlgate; that he was asaulted and
carried into the house, and that paraly-
sis followed as the result of shock from
tbe'injuries. The hospital physicians
are of the same belief.

The hurricane. yesterday afternoon.
performed queer antics around Darlen.

it appeared to first strike Noroton
Heights. where a large maple tree in
the highway, opposite the residence of
‘iiiperintendcnt ,Coe, of Fitch‘s Sold-
iel's' Home. was completely twisted off.
A small tree on the opposite side of the
street was also broken off. bllt the tel-
egraph wires preventcd it from falling
over. , '

The wind then milled in a norther-
ly direction to the home of John Fitz-
patrick. where an outhoiisc. was car-

 

rltd to a division fence. and there lodg- i
ed several feet from the starting point. I

The fine orchard of S. V. Reed, who?
owns what is known as the Siausoni
place, was ruined. entailing a loss of'
many dollars. Every tree. except one, '
was uprooted. The house was split on
two sides. and the netting of the door
and window screens torn olit. Chairs
were whirled away several feet, and
an out-building was carried sevefbi
rods and turned bottom side up against
the only tree left standing on ' the
promises. A large elm tree opposite.
Wis broken in two. The members of’
Mr. Reed's family were badly frighten-
ed. They describe the hurricane as
frightful. The crash when the house
was struck was heard a great distance. i

One side of it chimney on Andrew
Herman's residence was blown down;
a large oak trcc on Abel Danes-Ks prop-
erty was uprooted. and twelve fine ap-
ple trees owned by Edward Benedict
were destroyed.

West Norwalk also felt very severe-

ly the force of the storm. The wind lip-
rooted a pine tree alongside the house
owned by Frederick Keyser. and oc—
cupied by Mr. and Mrs. Ferdinand Grlf- l
tin. in falling it struck one corner of‘
”)0 house, s ring it badly. An ice
house owned ' Frank Bates was scat-
tered all over the pond. The building
was empty. biit Frederick Owens hap-
pened to be inside at the time. When
the. roof was torn off Mr. Owens
thought it time to leave, hilt before he
was able to do so the sides were also
carried away. Luckily he was not
hurt. .
The storm struck the Wilton district
shortly after 10 o'clock. and raged with
unwanted severity for over half an
hour. Trees were uprooted, orchards
ruined and several buildings were “
blown over. The damage will amount
to several hundred dollars. The swath
cut by the wind can be noticed in the
Slcr Hill district, just above Winni-
pauk. it extends through Wilton. ac-
ross country to Silvermlne and West
Norwalk. while another streak extends
in the vicinity of Georgetown.

Residents of the neighborhood ile-
scrlbe the storm as a veritable cyciBne.
The wind howled and the rain came
down in torrentsi It was exceedingly
dark. and during the heaviest part iii
the storm the air was filled with le ves.
dead limbs, bark and dead grass. mak-
ing it lmptlsslble to see any distance.

At the Adams & Canfleln nurseries
a cow shed was picked up by the gale
and carried a hundred feet. and then
tumbled over and demolished. Nu-
merous trees were torn up by the roots.
and orchards suffered considerable.

At the old Turner farm at Wilton
trees were not only uprooted but a big
cow shed was blown away and demol-

walii Church Today.

was occupied today by the Fulrlleld
County Baptist Association. which is
holding its sixty-second annual ses-
sloil.

Thus for nearly one hundred dele-
gates have arrived. representing near-
ly every church of the denomination
in this section of the state. who with
the many people from The Norwulks
in attendance, comfortably filled the
auditorium at the sessions this morn-
ing.

Rev. G. W. Nicholson. the modern-
tor. of Bridgeport. presided iii the soil-
sinus.

A feature of the convention was the
beautiful decorations of flowers and
plants. most tastefully arruugcd Sus-
ponflvll over the plilplt was the word
“welcome." This word was heartily
supplemented in brief remarks fronl
iii" pastor of the church, Rev. William
H. Hubbard.

The opening exercises consisted of a
devotional service, conducted by Rev.
1.. 0. Brooks, of Bridgeport. Miss lien-
rlctta Wing presided at the organ.

ilev. W. N. Morton, pastor of Mes-
slali Church, Bridgeport, delivered thc
annual sermon. The text was from St.
Matthew v.. 14:
the world." The discourse was ll
scholarly and interesting one. Mr.
Morton likened every Christian as a
iigllt in the world. and plainly pointed
out their responsibility as the savionrs.
through Christ, of the nations. who are
yet in darkness and know not the light.

estly presented by the moderator.

Discouraging Condition of Sub-
scription lists—Committee
Not Active.

Bridgeport. September 27—When all
has been said and done, and in spite
of the many sweet things that have
iifi‘n said by some of the newspapers
complimentary to the bustling abili-
tics of the committee which undertook
to finance the trip of the Fourth regi-
ment to New York for the Dewey par-
ade. the fact remains that there is
grave danger that the regiment may
not. after all. go to New York. and all
because the committee has failed to
collect the comparatively small sum
to defray the exp uses of the occasion,

A meeting of tie omcers of the city
battalion was held at the armory last
night, Col. Hendrie being also present,
and they were a. rather discouraged
lot when the real state of affairs was

made known. 0f the $700 which it was ‘ “

expected would be easily raised. but
$229.75 is in the hands of the treasurer
with 848 more pledged.

All arrangements have been made
for the transportation of the troops.
