J , Basso. Will be One of the Scloioto, -

And the Singers Will be Any-
monted by an Orchestra.

 

—..

Next Sunday the anniversary of the
.dedication' of St. Joseph’s Church will
flake place. it will be the first anniver-
‘sary since the church was dedicated
one year‘ago tomorrow, when upwards
of one hundred priests were present to
witness and take part in the exercises.
The regular anniversary of the dedica-'
.tion rightfully falls on Decoration Day,
but it is the intention in always have
anniversary exercises on the Sunday
following Memorial Day. It is to be
known as the parish solemnity or hoi-
idav.’

For a long time the choir has been
practicing special music for the occa-
sion this year. and the celebrated. basso.
Edward O’Mahony. of New York, who
has gained fame by singing in New
York. Brooklyn and other places, will
be present. and will sing at the solemn
mass and respers. This will be one of
the best fcaturcs of the exercises. The
orchestra has prepared an elegant pro-
gram of music.

There will be special preachers at
both the solemn mass and Vespers. Rev.
Francis Fitzpatrick will preach at the
solemn muss. He will choose for his
subject. “Our Mother, the Church."
Rev. James Q. Dolan‘ will preach at the
solemn vesper service. He will take
for his subject, “Our Parish Patron, St.
Joseph. At this service the church will
be illuminated, which means that there
wm be a grand electrical display. *

The annual visitation of the parish
by Rev. Father William Mailer, was
completed yesterday, among the Eng-
lish people. It has practically taken
the whole month of May. The visita-
tion among‘the Hungarians, Italians
and other foreign element”, "will be com-
pleted this week. .' _ .

For those whc,_may. not know. it
would be well to state that every year,
each pastor of me Catholic Church
throughout the country. makes a house
to house visitation. the purpose being.
for more than any J _.clse, to find
out the spiritual condition of the peo-
ple, to see if they are attending church
regularly, and‘ also ifthey are attend-
ing to their spiritual. duties.

Rev. Dr. Maker had a double duty to
perform in his visitation this year. and
that was to distribute envelopes among
.his parishioners for a collection to be
taken on Sunday. It promises to be a
large one. The people have taken a
great interest in this matter. and pro-
pose to make the collection a $6 and
$10 one. This. of course. will be the
general collection. and there will be
many who will give considerably more.

MATTERS Mun nun

 

The Junk and Otbor Stuff Stored In
J Max Tarlov'a Born. to Now Locat-
ed to Austin at Crow’s Store-

, house.

A couple of lawyers. a sheriff and
constable in South Norwalk. had con-
siderable fun yesterday at the expands
of David Londo. of south Norwaik. and
Morris Shavitz. of New Haven. Be-
fore the matter is ended there prom-
ises to be a long‘drawn out legal en-
tanglement.

it is a mixed up affair at the pres-
ent time and hardly anyone who is in
any way interested knows where he is
at. At any rate the goods which be.
long to Londe are now under lock and
key in the storehouse of Austin ti:
Grow, in Water street. Judge Joseph
ll. Taylor. who is counsel for Londe,
claims that he can bring suit against
Shavitz for damages.

The whole trouble arose out of the
protracted suit between the two prin-
cipals. The case is now awaiting a
decision in the Superior Court. When
the case was tried in the South Nor-
walk side of the town court. the decis-
ion was given in favor of Shavitz.
The latter believes that the decision in
the lower court will be confirmed. with
increased damages In the Superior
Court. As he thought the attachment
he now holds against Londe's property
would not be sufficient to cover the
court's verdict. he had Deputy Sheriff
John W. Seulley place an additional at-
tachment of $300 on the goods.

This is what brought about the trou-
ble as told in last evening's edition of
The Sentinel. Deputy Sheriff Sculley.
armed with the writ of attachment.
went to 'l‘arlov's burn on Taylor ave-
nue, where the goods were stored. He
look Joseph Busch along with him and

 

Iminced him in the barn as keeper.

Mr. 'l‘arlov. finding out what had tak-
en place. went to the barn and induced
linsch to leave. stating that the barn
with its contents belonged to him.
Busch left and went in search of Mr.
Scullcy. in his absence Tarlcv. who
held a couple of notes against Londc.
which were overdue. and fearing that
they would not be paid. also got a writ
of attachment and placed it in the
hands of Constable John J. Goodwin.

Constable Goodwin wont to the burn
and securing keys. took possession
There was no one in charge of the
place when he got there. and accord»
ing to the law on the matter. so it is
claimed, he had a perfect right to hold
possession.

Shortly after Constable Goodwin
took possession. Deputy Sheriff Scul-
lcy and Mr. Busch arrived on the
scene. and there promised to be a
pretty warm time. Finally Constable
Goodwin gave in. and allowed the shor-
iIl' to remain with him in the burn all
night. Busch and a keeper for Londe
stopped out on a heap of iron in the
rear yard all night.

Yesterday morning Constable Good.
win had the goods removed to the Tar
lov and Geisler barns, on Connecticut
avenue. Mr. Shavita was notified. He
consulted his attorney James O'Con-
nor. of New Haven. Tile latter in-
structed Attorney John J. Cunco what
to do. Mr. Shavltz came to South Nor-
walk, and tllrough Attorney Cuneo.
got out a writ of replevin. This was
placed in the bands of Deputy Sheriff
Sculloy.

it is said that the barn where the
goods were located. was broken open
without the writ being served on Con‘
stable Goodwin. Whether or not this
is a fact Is not known. At any rate
(lousinblc Goodwin says that be was
not served with papers. and the prop-
erty of Londc is safely housed in the
storehouse. it will all be brought out
in court as to who was in the right.

The. May Qucon party that was giv-
cn for the benefit. of the Calvary Bill)-
tist and its pastor, under the manage-
ment of Mrs. Martha Floyd and Lou-

able imprcssion, when they opened the

youths. all dressed in white attire.

Understood That tbb Church Desires
To Hava Him Romain. and it Is
Probable That one Members
Will Get Together Again.

 

Only a very few members of St.
Paul's parish. including several wom-
en. turned out at the special meeting
called for last night! for the purpose
of taking into consideration the pro-
position of the rector of'the parish of
sending in to the parish his resigna-
tion when the indebtedness of the par-
ish was paid and to dgvise means of
carrying out. the ewe. - "

it was the sense o the meeting that
the debt could: not be paid. This is
virtually a victory for Mr. Coerr. as
he recently said that if the parish
did not take action to reduce the debt
he should consider that they wished
him to stay.

Although the meeting was called for
7:30 the clerk. St. John Merrill, did
not bring it to order until 8 o'clock.
Rev. J. Morris Coerr- opened with a
prayer, and than Mr. Merrill read the
call. Under this Mr. .Cocrr said that
the first business was to proceed to
consider the call. Allen lletts pre-
sented a resolution which was read by
Mr. Merrill. and was as follows:

Resolved: That in order to pay off
the debt of St. Paul's parish. which
now amounts to about thirty thousand
dollars. we. the subscribers, do here-
,by agree to pay the several some set
opposite our names. all some to be
paid on or before the first day of Jan‘
nary. 1902. That a committee be an
pointed to canvass the parish to ob-
tain subscriptions for the same. And
that when this meeting adjourn it will
be one week from this date and that
said committee shall report at that
meeting the amount of pledges receiv-
ed. And that in case the full amount
of the indebtedness is not subscribed.
the pledges shall not be binding.

Mr. Betta then made a motion that
a committee be appointed to carry out
the‘ resolution and Mr. Cocrr put the
question. Not a person in the ball
voted either way on the question.

Mr. Bette said that as the resolu-
tion did not seem to find favor he
would be glad to hear any other sug~
gcstions. '

S. C. Cummings said, after a few
moments. during which no resolution
or suggestion was offered, that as no
one seemed to favor the resolution.
and there was no other before the
meeting. he would move to adjourn.
but he withdrew the motion in favor
of A. E. Austin.

Mr. Austin: "it seems to me im-
possible from the aspect of things to
raise the imlcbtcdnosa, therefore i
move that it is impossible." .

Allen Bette intersected that “you
could not tell until you tried." but Mr.
Austin's motion was put and carried
and Mr. Cummings moved an adjourn-
ment. which was voted.

WORSTED MILLS TO KEEP OPEN.

The Norwaik it li‘airfleld Worsted
Mills. which ware closed Saturday by
an attachment in favor of the Indus-
trial Trust Company. of Providence.
will probably be reopened. Mr. Largo
said this morning. in an interview with
a Sentinel reporter. that everyone
would be paid in full. and that the
attachment was all a mistake and
ought never to have occurred. It came
as a surprise to bimland his attorney.

a thought everything. would be set—
soon. and something definite
would be knowu as to" the condition
of things.

CANNOT FIX BLAME
FOR EXPLOSION.

NEW YORK, May 29——Thc
police have apparently made no
luatcrial progress in the investiga—
tion of the mysterious explosion
in the jewelry store of P. C. Glca~
sou & Company. in Harlem, this
looming. A small piece of batter-
cd pipe, filled with a brown depos—
it. was found in the street opposite
the wrecked store, and the police
believe it is a fragment of the
bomb used in dynamiting the
place. It has been suggested that
some enemy of Gleason or some
other tenant of the building rc-
soricd to a bomb for revenge. and
the police are working along that
theory. The explosion shattered
all the windows in the block.
