Honors of the Day—Arrangements
Being Made for a Big Time
on Saturday.
The new boulevard speedway in
East Norwalk is becoming very pop-
ular. Yesterday afternoon, for the
third time. the fast horses of the town
were taken out for a brush, and there
was a large crowd of people to witness
the sport. 'Tho majority of them were
recognized horse owners, who have
good roadsters and will be seen on the
track later. There was a large number
from out of town present yesterday.
and they enjoyed the brushing very
much. it was generally remarked
among them that the. Norwnlk Driving
Association has a line speedway and
that it was in excellent condition. Ev~
erything passed off evenly, and the
afternoon was a pleasant one,
That the speedway is becoming very
popular is shown by the large number
of people who congregate along the
thoroughfare early and patiently wait
for the horses to come on. They do
not got tired and when the lust brush
is finished they are reluctant to leave.
The women are becoming very enthu-
siastic over the sport. as well as the
men. and they are there in large num-
bot-s.
it was a beautiful day for the sport
and the horses never showed up hot-
lcr. They were right on their mettle
I'lllll some fast stepping was the order.
There were a few fast homes along
the track, which were not put on, ow-
ing to the great speed of some of the
animals which were doing some. brush-
lug.
It- would be well to remind the own-
ers of horses again that the speedway
is not a race track. it is simply meant
for gentleman's driving horses. and do
not not the moaning misconstrued.
Anyone and any kind of a horse is wel-
come on the truck. if you have not a
horse that is as fast as another. it
makes no difference. On Saturday nit-
ornoon let everyone who owns a horse
in The Norwallts. take a half holiday,
go over to the speedway and rainy the
sport. You will enjoy the fun, if you
only get into it and make yourself at
home. if you do not care to brush
with the real fast horses. step in with
those that are not so fast. [)0 not
think that you ought to have a two-
mlnutc horse in order to drive on the
track. It is mount for the slow horses
as well as for the fast.
The trotting yesterday was of a high
order. There were sonic very hot
brushes. The animals were very fast
and all were on their good behavior.
C. C. 0., owned by Thomas Quinlan,
and driven by l. G. Hamilton, took the

CHA'I‘HAM, Conn, June 7——
Two cases of sum“ pox, both of
light character, have developed in
this to n. One case is that of
Mrs. John Tisioria, an Italian
woman. of Cobalt. and the other
is tltnt of Joseph Cliasman. aged
sixteen, of Middle Haddam. The
houses of the two families were
quarantined today, and other prc-
cauiions taken against a spread of
the disease, but it is feared that
Utllt‘l cases will develop, as the
husband of the sick wbman has
been going freely about the two
villages, and is supposed to have
communicated the infection. Phy-
sicians think the disease was
brought here by some Italians,
from New York, who visited the
'l‘isicrias three weeks ago. Both
the woman and the boy have been
sicl»: for more than a week.'but
the trouble was thought to be
measles, and it was not until yes-
terday, when a physician from
Midl‘lctmvu was called in constri-
tation that it was definitely decid~
ed to be small pox. The Middle
Haddam schools have been closed
on amount of the outbreak, and
lunch concern is felt by the people
of both villages.
