port Burglar, Sentenced.

The Superior Court. criminal slde‘.
Judge Wheeler presiding. had several
cases on yesterday of interest to Nor-

‘ walk people.

The charge against Vincenzo Zaino.

limit with Intent to murder to assault

with intent to kill, and to the latter
charge Znino pleaded guilty. it is
charged that the accused stabbed Carv
mine Vingo. of South Norwalk. in the
eye with a long knife. destroying the
eye ball. the point of the weapon cs-
caplng the brain by the narrowest
margin. State's Attorney li‘ossendon
explained in changing the charge that
he thought the state might be unable
to prove premeditation in the assault
and so be deemed the change advis-
able. A hearing will be given Zalno
later to determine the sentence of
which he is deserving.

The case of Conrad Wiscovatz; a
Pole, of Westport. charged with a
criminal assault upon Aggie Orley, s
Wallachian. twenty years old. was
taken up. The alleged assault was
committed in Westport on December
26 of last year. According to Miss Dr-
loy the crime was the outcome of an
attempted robbery participated in by
tile accused and his wife. Finding no
money upon her, the wife had urged
the husband to improper acts. The
cursor-occupied most of the day. It was
prosecuted by State's Attorney Samuel
Fessendcn. while Herbert A. Hill ap-
poured for the accused.

'i‘wu prisoners changed their pleas.
One was Matthewls‘arrell, of Bridge
port, who broke into the grocery store
and saloon of John 12‘. illnckley. at the
corner of Barnum and Seavlew ave
hues. Bridgeport; Farrell was intoxi-
cated when the deed was committed.
.ilo obtained some liquor. and a small
amount of cash fronra cash register.
The prisoner has already served a
iicrm in the state prison, 'which told
against him, and he was sent to Weth-
orsiiold for a term of two and a half
years. ~

Frank Shea. aged nineteen. charged
with the theft of $70 from the person
of Joseph W. liurhs. changed his plea
from not guilty to guilty and was sent
to jail for six months and sentenced
to pay a fine of $25 and costs. The
two went on n spree together. and
when liurns came to his senses hc
fouml his money gone. lie accused
Shcu of havinc robbed him.

The first business to be transacted
was the charging of the jury In the
cases against William Fisher and
Peter ltilcy. of Stamford. charmed with
an attempted robbery from James R.
Haley, of Cos Cob. The charge occu-
pied about twenty minutes and the
jury was out' fifteen minutes. return-
ing with a vcrdlct of guilty. The pris-
oners were not sentenced, as Attorney

One of the Pleasant incidents of the

Day-’—-Patrlotic Address by Procr-

donl Trumbull-.Guocts of
Honor.

BRIDGEPORT. February 22—Somo.
thing over 225 Sons of the American
Revolution sat down at the twelfth an-
nual banquet of the state society or
that order. which was arranged by non-
oral Gold Selleck Silllman Branch. of
tirisrcity. The banquet took place at
in" Atlantic Hotel: The arrangements
were made with the intention of cans-
ing the gathering to surpass any of
those previously held. it was the sen-
timent of the micsts that Stillman
Branch had succeeded in its endeavor.

The guests of honor were .lonatbnn
‘l‘rumbull. president of the state so-
cicy: Gcneral id. S. Greeley, of New
Haven; Henry P. Goddard, of Balti-
more; Dr. Bernard C. Steiner. of llal.
ilmorc; Governor George J’. McLean;
'd'oiicr S. touch. of New York: the
ltcv. ir‘rank llusscll. of this city. and
Ioscpb G, \‘Veodward.

An lncidcnt of the day was the pro-
u‘nlutloll to the stair society or a
handsome liar; and banner. The flag
or of the national colors. with a fringe
of bull silk and without lettering. The
banner is of fine quality silk, live by
seven foot in dimensions. and in the
nine, while and bull of the Sons of the
American itcvolutlon. The colors arc
in three porpcmlicular strlpcs, and to
‘bc whilc, which is the middle strips,
1:; a rualicszc cross of blue, surrounded
by a wreath of bull‘ and blue with an
inner belt of blue. inscribed in bun
letters. “Libertas ot Pair-la." The
whole in the insignia of the society.
l‘hc background of the circle hours a
portrait of Washington. The banner
is the product of hand work and in
very expensive. The banner is attach-
ed to a ten-foot staff surnuiuntcll by a
-rprcnd wluu eagle.

in accepting the um: and banner for
the. plate society l’r'csldcut Trumbull
made a patriotic address.

The diners marched to their souls
to the music of a life and drum and
were led by If. i“. Norcrous. of this
city, who was attired in a continental
uniform and carried a Queen Anne
muskel.

Governor McLean, in responding to
the toast "’l‘ho Marl and tho l-lntchct,‘
said in cart:

"it In a great pleasure to be nuuln
the mrcst of thin association on that
anniversary when all loyal Americans
bury nil hntchcts save one. The on
burlcd hatchet may still be feared by
Spaniards and cherry trees. but it is to
us a sacred symbol of the sort of cour-
itqe that neither sblrks nor dcnlcs rc-
uponsibllltios."

Gov. McLean referred humorously
to the tradition of the hatchet and the
cherry tree and continued: “George
Washington was a rcstorcr. not a row
elutionist. You are the cons of Amor-
icon restoration. not revolution. The
word rovolutionlst hair for seven cen-
turion. at least. been too oftenmpphed
by Anglo-Saxons to the men who have
from time to time restored to the lace
rte birthright of representative govern-
ment. Our tectonic ancestors lulu
town meetings long before they had
kings. In their paganism they ropurb
fated taxation without representation.
When they left the wild shores of the
Baltic more than 15000 years ago they
took their folk-moot across the channel
to Britain. where it is today. The his-
torian does not know when or where
they found it, but he knows that when
they Were found they had It. Kings
and nucens have rebelled against it,
but with only temporary success."

After sketching briefly the results
of the revolutionary movements in
English history. (toyernor McLean con-
tinued: “(tour-so H was the worst and
