. While there have been a few public
social events thus far this year. it re-
mained for the Arion Singing Society.
one of Norwalk's popular musical-soc-
ial organisations. to full inaugurate
the season. This was very successful-
ly accomplished at the annual concert
and ball of the society. held last night
in the hall in Madison street. The
hall, by the way. is much more at-
tractive this year than it has ever been
before. The walls and ceiling have
been frescoed, the woodwork newly
painted. and there is in general an air
of freshness about the entire interior
that met with approval from everyone
last night. while the merry dancers
pronounced the floor simply immense.

That the Arion's annual event is ap-
preciated was again demonstrated by
the large audience assembled at 8:30
o'clock to listen to the concert pro-
gramme. which was one of unusual
merit.

The first number was a selection by
the Arlon Orchestra. Caliph of Bag-
dad. which was ably perrormed. and
merited the hearty applause it receiv-
ed. '

T'hedllsaes Emma L. Spieske, violin-
i'ste. and Louise a. Spieske. pianiste of
Hartford. are favorites with Norwaik
music-lovers. and deservedly so. They

" were heard here two years ago. and

the enthusiastic reception accorded
‘ them in their bride programme num-
bers showed they had not been forgo:-
t‘en. The former played Pappinl's Nult
Btoille. Brsham'a hungorian Dance
and Saraste‘s Les Adleux. which at
once showed the artist. the programme
numbers being rendered in a masterly

manner. in response to an enthus-
lactic en she gave Allah. Lord by
Chadwick. Miss Louise Spieske gave

Raff's solo for piano. Polka de la
Reine. in brilliant style. and won new
laurels in her skillful accompanists
for her sister. Both artists received
beautiful floral tokens of esteem.

The Arion Male Chorus. of South
Norwalkuwas heard in Aysslingers
Wouneleben am Rbein. and the spirit
of the music was excellently exempli-
fled.
The Bridgeport Arion Male Chorus
rendered the cantata Das Lied. by
Baldanns. it was most creditably
sung, the tenor solo part being taken
by. Otto Weidmuller. ot Bridgeport.
ms. G. Webber. organist of St. Pat-
rick's Church. in Bridgeport. was the
accompanist.

Spinn. Spinn, by Von Hugo Juugsi.
was well sung by the Turner Lieder-ta-
fel. of Stamford. under the direction oi
GottIlb Menz. 'lhe tenor parts were
especially strong and sweet

Leigh Whittaker. whose sweet ten-
or voice it is always a pleasure to
hear, sang For All Eternity. with Vio
lin obligato by C. A. Freeman. and
piano accompaniment by- Harry J.
Zehm. Mr. Whittaker's voice embod-
ies power'as well as sweetness and its
resonant qualities filled the hall.

The Erlkonlg. by Schubert. was
sung by Richard Noack. baritone. His
voice is especially good in the lower
register and at the game time has a
wide range. He was enthusiastically
encored.. and responded with Ach!
Koennt. ich Singeu. Wis Die. Nachtl-
gal. by Hoe-hm. Mr. Zchni was the ac—
companlst.

The closing chorus was by the Ar-
ions of Bridgeport and South Nor-
walk. who gave Zerleti‘s Fruchiings-
label. The work was finely executed.
the societies singing in unison and
affording a treat to the audience.
These societies were under the direc-
tion of Professor Daniel Loss". of
Bridgeport. and are a credit to his
ability as a director-

Some disappointment was felt be-
cause Matt. Weller. the humorist. of
Bridgeport. who was down for two
programme numbers. did not appear.
it was explained that he became con-
fused between the date of the South
Norwaik engagement and one in New
Haven. However. Robert J. Hang. of
New York. gave a very clever song
entitled He Comes in Hell. by uri
hlaxstadt ‘

At the conclusion of the concert.
dancing commenced. and was contin-
ued until an early hour this morning.
Music was furnished by the Arion or-
rhestrs. composed of Dan Loeser. C
A. Freeman. John Steegmuller. John
Hyslop and John l-‘lint. There were
twenty-four numbers on the order.
The floor committee was composed of
Frederick Schlltt. Henry Krlete.
George Weiss and Herman Malina
The casualties of arrangements was
Charles Walter Albert rg. Herman
lebel. Henry Fmeb.

The young man who has been stop- ‘ .

women in dark places along West
us or in unfrequented‘sidestreets
is still at .large. and the police have no
clue to his identity. On Sunday evenr
ing. it is said, he stopped several wo-
men along the aveuue. receiving a
smart slap in the face from one of
them. This failed to teach the fellow
a lesson. however, as he was again
heard from last evening near the Pep-
per residence in West avenue.

if the fellow thought he was going

to scare Miss Elizabeth Schuman. a
bright viittle saleslady at Tristram A
Hyatt's. when he stepped up to her.
screened by a dark shadow. in Mott
avenue, Sunday evening, he was mis-
taken. She was walking along in a
matter-of—fact way that would have
convinced most anybody that she
would brook no interference. but the
fresh young man stepped suddenly in
front of her and exclaimed:

"Why. don' i. you know me?"

"Yes, 1 know you." said the young
woman. and at the same tlnie she dou-
bled up her list and gave the fellow a
blow on the nose that must have made
him see ptars.

The fellow started all on a run after
receiving this reception, but 'Mlss
Schuman piuckily stood her Round.
and after the fellow had disappeared
she continued her walk home.

Miss Schuman could but dimly ace
the man as he stood in front of her.
but in a general description she says
that he is of medium height and build.
wore a light overcoat and a black der-
by but.

Last evening two South Norwalk
ladies were, walking down the avenue
and had just passed the Pepper res--
ldence when a young man stepped up
to them and saluted them with the
query:

“Well women where are you go-.
ing?"

Both ladies were badly frightened
and started to run. After going a
short distance they met a man who
was walkinfi’up the avenue and told
him of thel experience. He accom-
panied the ladies back to the spot. but
the fellow had disappeared.

The police have also. heard of an-
other woman who was stopped in Or-
chard street in much the same man-
ner.

Whoever the fellow is. he seems sat-
isfied to give his victim at good fright.
as he' never follows up his first re-
marks with any demonstratlons. anti
quickly slinks out of sight.

The traveling public in general and
the Bridgeport public in particular will
be interested in some news obtained by
a New Haven Palladium reporter from
Vice-President John M. Hall. of the
Consolidated road yesterday. it
is to the effect that the long-delayed
and anxiously-awaited Bridgeport im-
provement. so-cailed, is to be at once
begun, within a few days. in fact. and
unless unforeseen obstacles intervene
the road will have expended in Bridge-
port by this time next year several
hundred thousand dollars.

Although the present plans of the
railroad company do not contemplate
the pushing of the entire work to com-
pletion until all legal obstacles are out
of the way. the announcement that at
least a/strong beginning is to be made
is important. The one thing which
stands in the. way of undertaking the
work' in its entirety is a suit instituted
by Wheeler A; Howes. one of Bridge‘
port's biggest coal firms. The route
laid out for the improvement cuts right
through thd' heart of the property of
the coal firm. Although the latter werr
unable to prevent condemnation 0'
their property for the use of the rail-
road company, they have so far block-
ed matters by various court proceed-
ings relating to the price to be paid for

their property. Until this matter is
settled. and Messrs. Wheeler A Howes

threaten to take it to the United States
supreme court. that part of the im-
provement which includes the new
depot will not be begun.

Pending the settlement of this ques-
tion. however. enough of the work will
be undertaken and completed to effect
a big change in the Bridgeport rail-
road sltuation. The plans provide for
the building of a stone viaduct nearly
four miles long, a mammoth four-track
driiw- -bridge. and last. but not least, a
depot which. by comparison with thc
present antiquated Bridgeport strut-
titre. will lend to that city an appear
ance strange to those accustomed tt
present conditions. As the draw-
bridge and depot are to be located
close to the Wheeler & Howes property
nothing can be done about those two
matters until the dispute is settled.

The railroad company win begin op-
erations in the western part of the city
on the stretch of track extending from
Park avenue to Fairileld avenue. Be-
tween these two points there are about

grade crossings. some of which

a ”the scenes of many fatali-

ties. Although through the erection
by orders of the railroad commission
era. of gates some of the crossings
were made safer. still they have all-
ways been a source of peril and their
elimination will be a cause for thank.
fulnesa. The importance of the work
will be better appreciated from the fact
that when fully completed it means
the abolishment. of some thirty 0er
such crossings. the most of them locat-
ed in the heart of the city. The most
important change so far as the west
end of the city is concerned. outside
of the elevation of the tracks. will b6
the depression of Park avenue. the
city's main thoroughfare to Seaside
park. This street now crosses over tht
tracks by a bridge. but under the new
arrangement will go under the tracks.

The railroad company some time ago
with the exception of the Wheeler &
Howes property. secured by purchase
all of the land needed to increase their
right of way to four tracks. While
prosecuting the. improvement. however
it will be necessary for them to run
around the work. and to that end per-
mission will be obtained from the city,
to temporarily lay tracks on part of the
highway. Notwithstanding the fact
that the railroad company's present
plans provide only for the west end
work. the probability is that ere that is
completed the Wheeler & Howes litigao
tion will have ended and that there
will at most be only a short interrup-
tion in carrying through the full pro-

lect.

Engineer Berrian. assistant to Chief
Engineer F. 8. Curtis. is to be in active
charge of the work, an assurance that
it will be the best of its kind. Ir. Ber-
rlsn had charge of the South Novwalk
improvements several years ago and
also was is Immediate charge of the
big Boston improvements. neently
completed. The manner in which he
solved someofthestllproblemsthere

, turn practical

 

one to take an t» Bridgeport matter
and prosecute it was early finish. The
city succeeded in hg'atlng the railroad
company at t u. but were in
lied to accept the
railroad company's terms at the next
session.’ A

in justification of the cost assessed
upon the city the railroad company
maintained that a large percentage of
the grade crossings were illegal or that
they had been laid subsequent to the
building of the railroad. Another fact
cited by the railroad company was that
for the elimination of the Asylum
street grade urn-ing alone the city of
Hartford paid over $700,000.

~ Copies of the railroad company's
plans will be filed with the Bridgeport
officials today. with a request that such
privileges as are necessary for the im-
mediate beginning of the work may be
granted at once Most of the con-
tracts for teaming, labor. stone. etc.,
have been already let.

ing. Knowles was arrested by Deputy
Sheriff Beach of North Haven, for
stealing George H. Nash's horse and
carriage last Saturday night. at West-

 

port. .A

A clash followed between the police
of New Haven, and Deputy Sheriff
Beach over the case. Captain Brewer
had directed the hotel keeper where
Knowles had put up. to summon a
countable and arrest the supposed
horse thief and detain him until offi-
cers arrived from New Haven. When
Donia: and Watrous reached North—
ford t ey found the horse thief in the
custody of Deputy Sheriff Beach. They
asked Beach to give the custody of the
prisoner to them. but Beach declined
to do this. Captures of horse thieves
are not made daily. and when they are,
the state grants rewards to t e captors.
Beach was aware of all the and he
held on to his man. The New Haven
policeman returned to New Haven
without the ief. Beach held him and
locked him it in North Haven.

Yesterday morning the New Haven
officers went to North Haven. but
Beach still claimed the prisoner. Dcp-
uty Sheriff Reaper. of Westport. was
on hand and instead of turning the
man over to the New Haven policeman
sent for him. the North Haven deputy
handed Knowlcs over to the Westporl
deputy.

Knowles was brought to New Ha-
ven and a record of his arrest was en-
tered in the police books. Then
Knowles was taken to Westport
Knowles says that he formerly worked
for the Wheeler & Wilson Co.. and al-
so for the Mallcable iron Works. in
Bridgeport. He made no statement as
to how he obtained possession of the
Westport horse and carriage.

The prisoner was brought before
lustice Hyatt and pleaded guilty. He
was bound over for trial before the
next term of the Superior Court.

London. October iii—The parliamen-
tary secretary of the war ofnce, iui'.
George Wyndham. in the House of
Commons today. announced that Field
Marshall Lord Wolseley. the comman-
der-ln-chlef of the forces. summed up
the situation in Nutal today as fol-
lows:

"General Yule has fallen back to ef-
fect a junction with Sir George Ste-
wart White. He camped yesterday ev-
ening about sixteen miles south of
Dundee. without seeing anything of
the enemy during the march. and it
has since been reported that ‘all's well
on the Wasciibnnk river.’

"General White fought a successful
action with an Orange Free State force
today on the road between Ladysmlth
and New Castle and should join hands
with General Yule this evening.

“General Yule reports
wounded are doing well.

“The Boer wounded on our hands
are treated Just as our own. and i
have every reason to believe that the
Boers will treat any of our wounded
in their hands in a similarly humane
manner."

Mr. Wyndham added: “A may re-
mind the House that the Transvaal is
n party to the Geneva convention."

Lord Wolseley further says: i
have also received from General Wal-
ker at Cape Town the followings ‘The
last message from Kimberley. October
22. 2 p. 111., reports all well.’ "

A despatch from Kuruman. dated
October 19 via the Orange river. says
a despatch rider has furnished details
of the fight at Mafcking October H.
They confirm the Associated Press
accounts and show Col. Fitzclarence's
squadron was nearly outflanked by the
lloers. The armored train was unable
to assist the squadron for fear of
hitting the British soldiers. Colonel
Baden-Powell signalled to r‘itzclarence
to retire. but the latter replied that he
was hampered by his wounded. could
not desert them and could not return
without relnfor ents. Lieutenant
Lord Charles Be luck of the Ninth
lancers. was then ordered with a
squadron“ to disengage Fitzclaréhce
and the defeat was effected in good
order.

The efficacy of the armored train
was thoroughly proved throughout
the engagement. The crew did great
execution. While the fighting was pro-
ceeding outside the townsmen stood
by the defences of the town. Splendid
spirit is said to have been shown by
everyone. even the women shoulder-
ing Lee—Metford rifles. which they
know how to handle.

Major Baillie had an exciting exper-
ience near Mafeklng while attempting
to convey orders from the base to the
front. ,He had to run the gauntlet DI
the enemy 250 yards away. A hot fire
war opened on him and Baillie's wat-
er bottle was shattered. The next mo
ment his horse was shot and fell and
Baillie had a narrow escape from cap—
tlire. But he reached the train.

A courteous note has reached Colon-
el Baden-Powell. from General Cronle
the Boer commander. offering facilities
for the interchange of wounded and
prisoners. This indicates that when
the Boers fired on the ambulance
:rnln. which was attempting to pick
up the dead. they did so by mistake.

A native minor says Colonel Plumer.
at Tuli. has engaged and defeated a
force of Boers.

London. October Zi—A despatch re-
ceived at Cape Town from Herschel.
dated October 23. says fifteen natives
which have arrived there any they
were arrested after leaving Johannes-
burg and ordered to light the British
in Natal. but they succeeded in escap—
ing.

it is reported at Cape Town that
President Steyn. of the Orange Free
State. is close to Aliwal north. near
Herschel. on the borders of the Or-
ange Free State. It Is added that the
Boer Camps on the Orange river are
quiet. that plowing and shearing are
proceeding. and that there are large
nautities of stock on the river bank.
