The arrangements for officers mess at
rum were discussed. and it was about
tlt‘t‘ll ed to buy a cooking outfit and
have a cook prepare the meals. it was
also decided to hold regimental games
at camp. provided permission could be
obtained from brigade headquarters.
These games were arranged for by
William Storey. of Company D. and will
Iic open to the men of the regiment.
llath company will enter a team and
[lie events will consist of sprints. runs.
jumping an ,other athletic sports. A
privnie fro each company will con-
stitute the committee In charge.
'II o officers will put up cups. medals
und other prises for the successful men
and will try to make this a successful
.xvcnt. That It was brought up at all Is
due to Williiinn Storey. who started the
idea. and did ‘ail the necessary corres‘
ltundli‘lfi- .
The members of the Fourth Regi-
ment; C. N. 0.. can attend the celebra-
tion of the 250th anniversary of the In-
corporation of this town. That Is If
they are invited. The idea put forth

The argument of the big ox use was
alsofouud j mount to .lit 9 as the

only about 8200 at this outsidei. A hand

Companies 11‘ and D turned out. There
are four hundred men In the regiment

last night. where a meeting of the 0f-
Ilrors of the Fourth Regiment was he»
lug held. and had a k With him. so
that he could secure some facts with
which to support the movement to have
the military companies present.
Although Mr. Adams will not make
known the discoursdi. between himself
and Colonel Hendrie. it is knowu that
thc colonel was in favor of the move-
ment. and will assifithfr. Adams in get-
ting a definite cstltxt‘nil of the number
of men who will turn out. and ill? cost
of getting them here.
The colonel thought that the hardest
company to get out innit! be I. of Win-
stcd. This Is the most distant one. and
it will cost more us bring it here than
the others.
Cupmtu Blomcr soundcd the officers
on the. matter of attending the celebra-
tion if an invitation was issued and
found all were enthusiastically in favor
of it. In fact. they thought that there
would be a large turnout In case It was
decided to invite them. So emu after
camp the men would be In good condi-
lit-ll for thumbing In the best style. and
could probably make a fine showing.
The members of Company I) xvi-re
put through a stiff drill last night. and
were thoroughly instructcd in guard

Propeller Clty ofNérwalk Moots wIth
an Accident.
People going and coming over the
Washington street bridge this morning
noticed that the whole side of the
frcigh steamer Gift? of Nut-walk was
stove n. It attrdnfthd considerable at.
tcutlou and at titties large crowds
were on the brldgo wondering how it
happened. The rumor was started
that the. vcsscl had collided with a
schooner in New York harbor. and that
the accident was of a serious nature.
They even wenl so far as to say that a
couple of men had been killed.
dvcrybody took It for granted flint
this was the case, without fludlug out
from headquarters what the trouble
really was. A reportcr called at thc
stcambout. dock this morning anti
learned the. facts In tho case. A heavy
for; hung over New York harbor last
night and this morning. Owing to Its
density. the. steamer did not
for South Norwaik until curly this
morning.
In landing at the ileckmau street
wharf the boat was run too close to
the dock. A projecting spilt caught
the railing at the bow and tore through
tlic cutlre eldc of the boat from how
to stem. It was so dark that the
pilot was unable to sec any object in
front of him. There was a IIItIc cx-
citcmout at the time. for It was not
known then whether the boat had col-
lided with another or not. It was soon
sceu. howcvcr, what had caused tho
trouble, and after the sldo had been
fixed up n IIthc. the trIp was made to
South Not-walk. .
The steamer was heavily loadcd at
the lime and If the hpIIc had caught
below the water line. the lass would
have been very great. It was vcry
fortunate that the damage was doin-
directly along the locust dock. After
thc boat was unloadcd. it was taken
to New York for rcpalrs. Thc dumugc
will amount to about 82?». The pro»
pellor Eaglc will take lllt‘ place of the
City of Norwalk until it Is In good run
