ered to execute a contract with the
company. Mayor Glover subsequently
signed the contract. William Darbee
was present in the interest of the
Lighting and Power Company.

Later in the session when the busi-
ness of the evening had been cleared
away, Councilman Meeker, of the high-
way committee. approached with tact-
ful caution a matter which has distur-
bed the usual tranquility of Norwalk's
governmental affairs. Mr. Meeker said
there was a little matter he would like
to speak about. He had. perhaps, been
going a little too fast; he had bir-
ed Augustus Newcomb to clean out Wil-
ton avcnuc with his scraper, and
had been criticised for so doing. He
said he did not suppose he had been
over-stepping his authority. In sup-
port of his position Mr. Meeker quoted
from an amended by-iaw of the city.
which provides:

Section i. ll shall be the duty of
commissioner of streets and sidewalks,
under the direction of the chairman of
the committee on Highways, and of
the Council of said city. to cause to be
made. repaired. cleaned and kept open
and safe for public use and travel. and
free from encroachments and obstruc-
tions. the streets. highways. sidewalks.
gutters and public grounds and places
in said city; and he is hereby given
full power and authority to do and
cause to be done and performed. all
necessary acts and things. in the car-
rying out of the provisions of this sec—
tion.

Mr. Meeker said he took .it that the
by-law gave him the right to employ
men to work on the streets. It was
“immaterial to him whether he hired
them or not; it would ssvch lm a great
deal of trouble if he didn't have to
bother with the matter.

Councilman A. H. Hoyt thought the
intent of the by-lawvrss that the Com.
minioner of Streets should employ
the men to work on the streets.

Councilman Gould Hoyt asked if the
pay was the same. a.

Councilman Meeker. placing a wrong
interpretation upon Hr. Hoyt'n ques-
tion. quickly replied that there was no
commission in it for him.

"No. no; you misunderstand me."
retorted Hr. Hoyt. ”I mean do you pay
Mr. Newoomb the same price you would
pay any other man?‘

Councilman Meeker said Mr. New-
comb received is a day for himself and

team.

Replying to a question by Council-
man Buckley. Mr. Meeker said the city
did not own a scraper. Mr. Newcomb
had worked two days on Wilton ave-
nue and one day on Smith street. he
said. There would be very little more
work done on the streets this season.
and it would suit him if he didn't have
to bother about the matter.

Cwneilinnn Could Hoyt asked what
had been the custom about hiring men

to work on the streets.

Mayor Glonr replying. said the
gilt!“ bynlaw was not just what it
intended to be by the councilman

: but under it

Cloppe is the owner of several goats.
and Mr. Snyder was. until a few days
ago. the possessor of a full blooded bull
dog, in which he took great pride. The
goats and the dog were not on the best

Mr. Snyder's yard to devour the corn
he had thrown out to feed his chickens.
the dog hit one of the goats. Mr
Cioppc witnessed the occurrence. and
getting a shot gun. entered Mr. Sny-

The suit is brought to recover for the

At the meeting last night at the Bap-

Graves set forth from the Bible the
necessity for such a place as hell. If
the Bible Is the text-book of the Chris-
tian religion. he said. hell is a reality.
Man is not sent to hell by God, but
goes in spite of God because he loves
sin better than righteousness. He goes
dcspising God's love and mercy. carried
by the force of his own wilful disob-
edience to truth. Tonight is the last
service of Dr. Graves. The Second
Coming of Christ is the subject. liv-
angeiist Crane will be with this church
beginning Sunday next. November 26.

The musical and literary entertain-
ment given under the susphes of the
Central Labor Union. of Norwalk. at
Music i. last night. was very large-
ly atten ed. the spacious hall being
nearly filled with workingmen , and
their families. who assembled there for
the purpose of enjoying the pleasing
programme which had been
for’ their entertainment and 'i .
tion by the committee having the st-
falr in charge. 1

The first number was a selection by
the orchestra. composed of the Nor.
walk Musical Union. and was rendered
in an artistic manner and well received

F. A. Honnecker. chairman of the
meeting. then mnounced that it was
his pleasure to present to the audience
a gentleman whose popularity among
the people of The Norwsiks made an
intrdduetion unnecessary. and whose
friendship for the working people was
unquestionable. He referred to our
representative. Hon. John H. Light.

Mr. Light said he felt it a great priv-
ilege to have the opportunity given
him to meet so many of his friends on
aligns; occasion. He stated that the

I

 

 

can of the taller of the present
day do ended. not. upon his physical
strength. as in the early times, but
upon his intellectual strength. and he
assured his auditors that if the labor
ing man of today would avail himself
of the increased facilities for acquir-
ing knowledge which are now at the
disposal of' everyone and become a
thinker and an intelligent worker. the
great labor problem would soon he a
thing of thepaat. He complimented
the laboring‘men of the state upon
their wisdom in having sent a commit-
tee to Hartford during the sessions of
one State Legislature and assured them
that owing to the efforts of their com-
mittee. not a single law had been pas-
sed which was in any way detrimental
to the interests of the working man.
The laboring men themselves. be said,
were responsible for the laws which
were passed. as by their votes they
sent to the Legislature the men who
frame the laws. It was his sincere
hope that the day was not far distant
when the United States would create
and maintain a court. as it does the Sn-
preme Court, whose business would be
the deciding of all diiierences arising
between the employers and employed.
In this way would many millions of
dollars be saved which now are wasted
as a result of having no judicious
means of gattllng these difficulties.

At the conclusion of Mr. Light's re-
marks the Colored Ladies' Quartctte of
Norwalk rendered a selection in such
a pleasing manner as to necessitate
their responding to two encom.

Senator Edwin 0. Rosier then made
a few remarks in his customary pleas-
ing manner. setting forth the neces—
sity for all laborers to pull together
in the great caller, so dear to their
hearts. stating that the attainments!
their object and the realisation of their
hopes depended upon their harmonious
and concerted action. Mr. Keeler was
roundly applauded at the conclusion of
his remarks. showing the esteem in
which he is held by the working peo-
ple.

Messrs. Littleton and Gordon then
appeared in several duetts. which were
thoroughly enjoyed.

Prank Zahn, of the local Barbers'
Union. gave a few plain. sound farts
for the consideration of the audience.
urging all Union men to anoint each
other. and advocating the demand for
the Union label, as this. he said. is
one of the most powerful weapons at
the command of Union men.

Thomas Casey. president of the Cen-
tral Labor Union. then stated the ob—
ject for which the evening's entertain-
ment had been gotten up. He said he
hoped that all would benefit as a re-
sult ‘of the masterly addresses which
had been given them by the speakers
of the evening. »

Then followed more solos and other
specialties by the colored entertainers.
after which the orchestra played the
closing march. .

At the conclusion of the meeting
refreshments were served in the hall
of the Socialist Labor Party. in South
Hsin street.

Paterson. N. 1.. November zb—Vice-
President Hobart died at 8:30 this
morning.

The family and physician were at

Mr. Hobsrt's bedside when he expir-
ed.
The vice-president had been falling
since late yesterday afternoon. al-
though the reporta given out at the
house were that he was holding his
own.
At midnight he became unconscious.
and at 7 o'clock this morning he had
an attack of angina pectoris. from
which he never rallied. His death fol-
lowed at 8:30 o'clock.

Mrs. Hobart, Dr. Newton. Mrs. New-
ton. who is a cousin of Mrs. Hobart.

 

CARRITA.SOSARI
and Miss Alice Weddell. the nurse
were at the patient's bedside constant-
ly from the time he became uncon-
scious.

.At 1:30 o'clock the vice-president's
private secretary. Mr. Evans. called up
the White House by telephone and non
ified President McKinley that Mallo-
bart. was dying. At 9 o‘clock Mr. Evans
communicated again Wltal the presi—
dent. notifying him of the vice-presi-
dent‘s death.

Up to l0:30 no arrangements for the
funeral had been announced.

Garret A. Hobart. .lr.. was also at
his father's bedside when death occur-
red. Mrs. liobart bears up well under
her great bereavement.

The tinge on the municipal and other
buildings were half masted when the
news of the vice-president’s death he—
eanie known. Flags on many private
buildings and dwellings were also hung
at half mast.

The hell on the City Hall began toll~
ing at 10 a. m.

The County Court met at 10 o'clock
and immediately adjourned in token of
respect to the dead vice-president.

Although the vice president's death
had been expected at any time then
was still a faint hope up to the last
among his personal friends in Pater-
son that he would survive for some
time to come. Three persons who had
been neighbors and life-long friends of
the vice-president were deeply affected
by his death.

Soon after the news of Mr. Hobart'e
death was sent over the wires. tele-
gr‘ams of condolence began to arrive

e of the first messages of sympathy
lwas from President and Mrs. McKin-
ey.

About a month ago Mr. Hobart's ill—
ness took a decided change for the
worse and shortly after that a notice
was issued by the family to the public.
admitting that the vice-president's con-
dition was critical and that little hope
of his recovery was entertained. It was
also announced that he certainly would
never again appear in public life.

Mr. Hobart's family. his personal
and intimate friends and political as-
sociates have since been resigned to
the inevitable although there were
times in the last days of the vice-presi-
dent's illness that he was bright and
appeared to be growing stronger. This
was especially the case during the last
ten days. _

His appetite improved and he was
reported to have passed several com-
fortable night.

On Sunday there was an unfavorable
change in his condition and be con-
tinued to grow weaker. '

Before Mr. Hobart became uncon-
scious he was able to converse with
hire. Hobart about some private sf-
falrs. He was very patient and showed
’ remarkable will power up to the last.
Among those to whom telegrams were
sent announcing the vice-president's
Mb were United States
Sewall and Hanna.

public attention when he went to long
Branch last summer. He spent a por—
tion of the summer there and during
"that time had a number or weak spells.
it was not admitted then by his hysi—
clan or family that he was ousiy
ill. Although he continued in failing
health, he was able to drive out and at-
tended the Lpng Branch Horse Show.
Near the end of the Long Branch sea-
son, Mr. Hobart went to his Paterson
home in company with Mrs. Hobart.
his son and secretary. it was not puh‘
liciy admitted then that he“wss dan-
gerously ill at that time.
after the cabinet meeting. The attor-
ney general and Viva-president Hobart
were probably closer than any two
men in public life in this administra-
t on.

Mayor Hinchclifle has issued a proc-
lamation recommending that all pub-
lic schools. oilices and places of busi-
ness be closed on the day of the vice-
president‘s funeral. He also requests
the people to abstain from their usual
avocations and to attend their accus-
tomed places of worship at the time of
the funeral.
