minutes after the session had been in

A couple of pedestrians went to the as-
sistance of the Injured man. while an-
other ran after Dr. Henry C. Sherer.

no ti e In getting to the scene of the
accident. When he arrived Mr. Jeffer-

getting weaker every minute.

injured man was removed to his home
at Brookslde. where he had just moved
from Lyons Plains. Dr. Sharer attend-
ed to Mr. Jefferson’s injuries at his
home. after temporarily dressing them
in Clay street. and stopping the flood
of blood. There were no bones broken

gentleman will he himself again.

Logical Choice for Delegate.
To the Editor of the Evening Sentinel:
Sir: The logical choice of the Town
of Norwalk for member of the Consti-
tutional Convention is Hon. John H.
Light. speaker of the House of Rep-
resentatives. He is thoroughly up-to-
date in his knowledge of the matters
to come before the convention and
would be a leader in that body. Nor-
walk should not send a “back number"
nor a mere politician without legal
ability.

House lsst Evening.
I nu Misfit Piliiiiiiii
The Club In Fine Condition, Both ss
Regards Members and Finances,
and is Arranging for Many
Popular Entertainments.
The members of the Catholic Club
held a very enjoyable smoker. last
night. at the club house in West ave‘
one. There was a large attendance of
the members, some of whom were ac-
companied by invited assets. The even-
ing was one of rare enjoyment. and will
not soon be forgotten by the large com-
pany present. The entertainment com-
menced at about 8:30. Was varied and
of a fine order. The diaerent selections
as they were received. were enthusias-
tically encored. showing that the audi-
ence appreciated the efforts of those
who were taking part in the program.
Dr. William J. Tracey acted as master
of lceremonies in his usual competent
sty e.
The first number on the program was
a tenor solo. entitled "Dear Home
Land.“ which was finely rendered by
Robert A. Shaw. Then came a piano
duet. played to perfection by Edward F.
Hands and Frederick V. Powell. Fol-
lowing this Mr. Powell favored with a
vocal selection. entitled "Mona." At
this stage in the program a short in-
termlsslon was taken while refresh-
ments were served by members of the
club. who acted in the capacity of
waiters. Choice cigars were passed
around. and then the entertainment was
resumed. Edward J. Cahill rendering a
fine piano solo. entitled "The Dawn of
the Century.” This selection In a very
pretty one and Mr. Cahill did it jus-
tice. Mr. Powell and Mr. Hands favor—
ed with another duet. “Spanish
Dances."
Robert A. Show sang “Anchored” so
artistically. and was encorcd so enthus-
iastically that he was forced to respond
with "in Thy Blue Eyes." Frederick
V. Powell gave two more selections. a
march by Sousa. on the piano. and a
vocal solo entitled "When Jack Comes
Home Today." Edward 1". Hands. or-
ganist at St. Mary's Church. was the
accompanist of the lug.._ .
At the close of the enteflunmeot'nr.
Tracey made a short address. in within
be outlined ‘a‘ program the club will
follow during the coming winter
months. On Thanksgiving averting the
club will give its so cal hall. at Lock~
wood’s Hall. After t e holidays at play
will be given, under the direction of
Livingston Russell. of Westport. under
whose auspices the club gave an enter-
tainment last year. . 0n the evening of
Lincoln's birthday a banquet will be
given at the club house. in West ave-
nue and later in the season the mem-
bers will be treated to a lecture. In-
termlngled throughout the winter
months the club willgive a series of en-
tertainments. There will also be fre-
quent smokers and debates about once
a month.
The club officials are preparing to
hold a ladies' night about once a
month. When speaking of these ladies’
nights the president became humorous.
and brought forth many a hearty laugh
from his hearers. Dr. Tracey said that
quite a number of the young members
of the club have young lady friends
whom they would like to entertain. and
other members would like to have
young ladies to entertain. Consequent-
ly everybody would be interested in
these proposed entertainments. The
doctor was in hopes that some of the
older members of the club. who had so
long withst the dart of Cupid,
might. through these receptions. be-
come victims.
Mr. Tracey save a brief synopsis of
the condition of the elnhst the present
time. He said that the club Is now in
better financial condition. and in num-
ber of members larger than ever before.
He was of the o bias that the club
had a line future fore If. The name
of one candidate for membership was
proposed.
The smoker was In charge of a com-
mittee composed of E. J. Finnegan.

public in a new light-if C. E. Smith of
Sound Beach. carries out his expressed
intentions.
Mrs. C. E. Smith. Mr. Smith‘s wife.
is the owner of Ware island, on which
Mr. Carter constructed his alleged
submarine wonder. The inventor took
a lease of the island for one year from
Jan. 1, 1899 to January, 1. 1900. do Mr.
Smith said yesterday. When the lease
expired, be neglected to renew it but
remained on the island, and me under-
standing was that the same terms of
rental should continue . The inventor.
it seems agreed. too, to hand over the
island to the owner in as good condi-
tion as he found it.
This he failed to do, Mr. Smith says.
The natural beauty of the island has
been married by me inventor‘s occu-
pancy of it Mr. Smith declares. Trees
have been cut down. boulders blown
out, and the surface of the island dis-
turbed. For all this. Mr. Smith thinks-
he is entitled to some damage. Just
how much damage he would claim, Mr.
Smith refuses to say. but it is anili-
clent. he declares, to make it worth
while to sue for the sum unless the in-
ventor pays up without resort to such
a course.
But this is not all. It will be recalled
that the inventor. slipped away with
his submarine craft quietly. In the
darkness of the night. Mr. Smith did
not know he had gone. Had be known
of the Inventor's Intentions he do
clares, M. Carter would not have got
away from Ware island so easily. Mr.
Smith says that there is due from Mr.
Carter a considerable sum of money
for the rental of the island. What the
sum is, he refuses to say. but he de-
clares that unless the Inventor settles
he will place the matter in the hands
of a United States marshal with In-
structions to seize the under-water
wonder.
Mr. Smith said. yesterday, that the
inventor was a man of considerable
property. He does not know Mr. Car-
ter's address; in feet. says he knows
neat to nothing about him and has on-
ly his own assurance as to his hold-
use.
Mr. Smith is looking up I. 0. Carter.

In the office was disturbed. '
The post office occupies part of a bus-

Entrance ”was gained by forcing in the
front door. With the aid of tools which
they secured from the blacksmith shop
of H..M. Gates. In the village. they
smashed the combination lock of the
safe, and blew the dor off with nitro~
glycerine. Blankets stolen from the
stable of A. E. Purple. were wrapped
about the safe to motile the sound of
the explosion. which was not loud
enough to awaken any of the people liv-
ing near by.
it was not until 6:15 this morning.
when the assistant postmaster. W. C.
Brown. went to the office .that the
break was discovered. Therobbers‘by
that time. were presumably far away
from the village. leaving no trace of
the manner or direction of their going.
Postmaster G. P. Iiecnnler has notified
Poslofnce inspector Lewis. of this dis-
trict. who is expected here this after-
noon. it Is believed the robbery was
committed by the gang which baa made
other breaks in this state recently.
The Moodus office is a second class
one. doing a large business. on account
of the presence on large medical firm
In town. The presence of so
stamps in the safe is accounted for, by
the fact that the elites had just receiv.
ed a fresh consignment of them. .
Last. Sunday five strangers were seen
in town. and they remained nearly all
day. stingregating at one time near the
blacksmith shop from which the tools
were taken last night. There is a
theory that these may have been the
robbers and that‘they were preparing
at that here for the bleak. A number
of «fingers were seen in town. last
evening also. but as they were tllought
to be here to attend a secret society
meeting. little attention was paid to

It is believed that after the robbery.
the men went off on foot in asoutherly
direction. Which would lake’ them to-
ward East Haddsm and Lyme. The
ferries are being watched and it is
probable that the burglars are still on
the east side of the Connecticut river.
