The annual meeting of the. East Nor-
welk school district was held, last
night, in rooms 6 and 8 in the upper
schoolhouse. There were warm dis-
cussions at times. but they soon incited
nto oblivion. At the hour act for the
meeting the seats.were only partly
filled. but a few minutes laterthere
was an influx of voters. who complete»
ly filled the place. The principal in
teroet of the meeting was centered in
the selection of a school committee-
man to succeed MM. Smiths whose
term expires this year. Mr. Smith had
many friends present, but they were
unable to overwhelm the voters who
supported J. C. Hawkins. and the latter
was elected.
Committeeman Smith called the
meeting to order and called for the
selection of a moderator. Attornev
Leo Davis was nominated, but it is not
customary for a member of the com-
mittee to act in this capacity. and he
declined the honor. A. C. Golding Was
nominated for the position and elected.
Clerk G. Frederick Benedict was called
out read the call of the meeting and
next followed the presentation of the
rnlnutes of last year's meeting, the
reading of which was omitted.
The report of the school committee
was then in order. and was read by
Secretary Leo Davis. This showed
the district to be in first~ciass shape
in every particular. The report was
accepted without a dissenting voice.
as was all the other reports given.
Mr. Davis said that this district is in
better condition than any other in the
town. Then came the report of the
treasurer, .l. Wallace Marvin. which
was remhby clerk Benedict. This
showed that during the year $4,808.20
was received and $4,656.55 was paid
out. leaving a balance in the treasury
of $151.65.
The last report to be heard was that
of the collector, is. E. Gotham. He
has collected $3,603.68. and paid the
treasurer $3.600. The balance he has
on hand.
The work of selecting a committee-
man to succeed Mr. Smith followed
the reports of the different officers of
the. district. The moderator appoint-
ed John W. Main. Stephen S. Naphey
and E. L. Hanford tellers. There was
a warm discussion as to whether the
ballot should no formal or informal. A
vote was taken, and the formal ballot
was decided on. and also that each
voter should pass by the desk of the
moderator and deposit his ballot in a
flat. Among those who voted was one
woman. Marshall H. Tolies presented
the name of J. C. Hawkins and Charles
liemson that of l). M. Smith. as nom-
inees for the office. The results show.
ed that 145 votes had been cast, of
which J. C, Hawkins received 82; l..
M. Smith. 55; E. E. Gorham, 2; .i. Walv
lace Marvin, i; W. S. Hartford. 1: E.
B. Smith, 4. One of the ballots was
thrown out as there were three stuck
together. Seventy-three votes were
necessary for a choice and Mr. Haw-
kins was declared ciec.ed.
The chairman for the tellers was in‘
structed to cast one vote for G. Fred-
erick Benedict. to succeed himself as
clerk.
it was moved that the clerk he in-
structed to cast one vote for J. Wal-
lace Mnrivn to succeed himself as
treasurer. but there was one dissent-
ing vote to this and balloting had to
be resorted to. There was a further
discussion as to whether the ballots
should be collected or each one should
pass by the moderators table and cast
his vote. The former course was de-
cided on. after much dispute. The re-
sults showod Mr. Marvin reelected.
He received 104 votes; W. S. Hanforrl.
ii; E. E. Gorham. 2: . B. Smith. 4: W.
G. LeCount, 1. and red M. Wheeler.
1. There was one blank. The total
number of voice was 119.
The same method was pursued in
the election of the collector. He llilii
quite a formidable rival for this posi-
tion in the person of lrvlng W. Rob-
ertson. Mr. Gorhafn's foilowél’li. how-
ever. were the strongest. and he was
elected to fill the ohlce for another
year. There were 138 votes cast.
Mr, Gotham received 84; Mr. Robert-
son. 52. Two ballots were blank.
At this point of the meeting at least
half of those present left the building
and .went home. not caring to inter-
est themselves in the business to
follow. .
Committeeman Leo Davis presented
a resolution. thanking Woodbury G.
Langdon for the gift of the bell for the
new aches! house and moved that the
clerk notify Mr. langdon to that effect.
Shite resolution was unanimously car-
r e .
The resolutionr providing for a
three million was then presented. and
carried without any opposition.
Mr. Davis next presented a resale
tion. asking that the coflimittee be ems
powered to borrow 35.400 to pay of! the
debt of the district. Mr. Davis said the
object in doing this .wss not to incur
any further debt on the district. but
was to porcine district mohair per
cent. interest. The district is now
paying 41,5 pcl' cent. interest. and the
money with which to pay the indent

from the upper story of the building
and immediately notified James (thief-
to, who is the libationist in Mr. Lar-
sen's cafe. The latter noticed at a
glance that the place was alive and im-
mediately turned in an alarm from
Box 52. which is close by. Before the
firemen arrived some of the crow-l
which had collected broke the gain
which leads to the rear of the build-
ing. No one was in the place.
Putnam Hose Company, Old Well
Hook and Ladder Company and the
Mayflower-s, of East Nor-walk, were
soon on the scene. and made quick
work of the fire. Chief E. V. Baker
was present and directed the move-
ments of the fire laddles in his usual
competent style. and was handily as-
sisted by Second Assistant Foreman E.
W. Clark. First Assistant Foreman
Rufus J, Smith is still laid up with the
injuries he received in the Union
street fire.
The firemen were confronted with
dense smoke that made the task of
getting at the fire a difficult one.
Some were very nearly overcome with
the smoke. and and to get out and
breathe the fresh air and make anoth-
cr expedition in the building. Assis-
tant Foreman Clark distinguished him-
self by picikng up a burning couchand
walking to the edge of the roof and
tossing it into the water at the side of
the building.
The gasoline stove. which was all
ablaze. was picked up by willing hands
and also thrown out of the house.
With those out of the place it was
the work of only a few minutes to put
out the are inside the rooms. A hose
was stretched by the Mayflowers, but
it was not deemed advisable to throw
the stream in such large quantities and
instead buckets of water and the ex-
tinguishers were used.
The ceilings were low and theemoke
was very slow in getting out of the
building and gave rise to the belief
that some other part of the building
had caught fire. An investigation was
made and it was soon found that the
smoke was ”dead."
Part of the household effects of the
Jewish family. who occupied the place
were removed to a nearby porch until
the fire had been extinguished. The
members of the iamiiy,,huddled togeth-
er beside their belongings until the
firemen had left, and then returned to
their damaged «lifelong. The exact on
igln of the fire is unknown, but the
firemen have every reasou to believe
that the gasoline stove exploded as
near it was a kerosene lamp. When
they first saw it the stove was biasing
fiercely. “ "

made fast to bulk heads. The divers
at 9 o‘clock started to go through all
the cabins. the engine and fire rooms
und’ other compartments of the ferry
boat in order to more a thorough
search. it is known that all of the
crew got ashore in safety.
The body of a boy about ten years
old was found floating in the East riv-
er this morning. The body had been
in the water but a short time. The
coroner‘s officers attributed the death
to the Northfleld collision and the no
lice recorded it as the first known
death.
Captain Daniel Gully. of the tugboat
Mutual, said this morning that many
persons must have been drowned.
"i saw the two boats when they
crashed." he said. “and i am positive
that 200 persons were drowned. i saw
myself more than thirty jump over-
board as the Northfleld was drifting
from the battery to Pier 10. That was
on the starboard side and i cannot tell
how many went over from the port
side. i saw more than fifteen in the
water when i ran up to the North-

inal court building this morning. look-
ing for her husband. She feared he
was drowned. He always took the 6
o'clock boat for his home.
J. V. Wright. of Tompkinsvillc. Sta-
ten island. is also reported missing. It
was his custom to return home every
evening on the 6 o’clock boat and when
the news of the accident reached
Tompkinsvliie last night his family
was greatly disturbed. Repeated in-
quiries were made by the members of
the family atpoiice headquarters here.
but no news of him could be obtained.
A number of the family went to New
York this morning to make further in-
quiries and it is hoped that he may
have been detained over night in the
city and will turn up all right today.
Police inspector Thompson said
many injured persons had been rushed
to the hospitals so quickly after the
stranding of the ferryboat that the
police did not have a chance to make
a systemmatic list of them. A census
of all patients in hospitals received
last night will be taken and the in-
spector said he expected to fine some
of the missing in the hospitals. The
inspector did not think many are
dead but he said it was possible but
acme bodies would be among the

OBITUARY RECORD.
Mrs. Mary A. ‘Taimsdce‘i
in}; v
about 7 :30 o’clock“ nines .
less than one week death came “to re-
llovo the almost unbearable sufferings
which she had censured for the past
few days. . ..
In the bright noon time of life. when
she was the cheerful and faithful pilot
of the home for her aged father an
mother. the unswervlng go:l ’
factor of her young son..f up till
helper to brothers and sistmlsh
slon. She was most genial and happy
under all circumstiinc . gen ‘
open hearted '
spoken and, no . fl titans
words. She carrie sunsh
she went and made the world brighter
and more cheery by her presence.
From our point of view she was one
of earth's ministering angels that could
least be spared. in thohome,,in' the
' sociiilclrcle, inchul-ch.vfocloand in
benevolent activity she was most hap«
py when working hardest for the ac-
complishment of good to others. . But
death came, like a great interrogation
point. in the midst of the half com-
pletod sentence and we ask why?
Why should one so useful, so much
needed by others, be taken when in
the zenith of life's work? it is the
great mystery. beyond earthly explana-
tion, the nnsoivable problem by human
reasoning. The good Master knows.
and to His gracious love we commend
the sorrowing parents. sisters and
brothers. and the young son. knowing
that He will care for each. By and by.
when the reunion of broken families
and of separated friends shall take
place, then we shall understand.
We'll catch the broken threads again.
And finish what we here began;
lieav‘n will the mysteries explain.
And then, ah. then, we'll understand.
God knows the way, He holds the key
He guides us with unerring hand;
Sometime with teariess eyes we'll see,
Yes. there, up there, we‘ll under-
stand.
