At their meeting held last evening

assembly hall building, Wall street.
tile board of school visitors of the
town organized for the ensuing year.
Incidentally there was in contention on
or the matter of holding one session in
the high schools of the town. Eight
members of the board were present
and the four South Nov-walkers to ii
man voted in favor of the one session
plan. while the four Norwnlkers voted
against it. The matter therefore
rested and the high schools will go on
with two sessions as at present.
The visitors in attendance were
Bradley S. Keith, A. Blanchard, M. ii.
Glover, Dr. G. S. Kendall. Dr. '1‘. A.
Riordan, A. A. Graham. John Light
and Arthur C. Wheeler.
The first regular business was the
reorganization of the board. Bradley
S. Keith and A. Blanchard were re-
elected respectively as president and
secretary. The acting school visitors.
Messrs. Light, Wheeler and Blanchard
were selected again. and Dr. '1‘. A.‘
Riordan was also re-elected superinten-
dent of the night schools.
W. G. Shaw was given permission to
send a daughter and a son to the East
Norwalk school. aiul Mrs. George Ever-
ett to send her daughter to the West
Norwalk school.
The acting visitors made their report
of the. books and supplies they purch-
ased during the month of August and
September. For the. former month
the sum expended was $413.26 and for
the last namctl month $64l.00.
Mr. Wheeler gave notice that at the
next meeting of the hoard he would
move the introduction of the Judson-
Ilcnder readers and also the iaylor
second reader.
The acting visitors were chosen to
coustitutc the purchasing committee
of the board for the coming year.
Secretary Blanchard brought tip the
matter of furnishing the pupils of the
Schools of the town with dictionaries
and the subject brought forth quite a
discussion.
Mr. Light believed the furnishing of
suitable dictionaries to be along the
present plan of supplying free text
books and while It would be ideal to
furnish one for each pupil the acting
visitors did not feel themselves In a
position to recommend that tilts be
done.

SCOTTY PIERBON ARRESTED.

Bay: he Assaulted William Loudon to
Self Defense.
Frank Pierson. or “Scotty.” as he was
known by some, who assaulted Wll~
Ilum London, on the Norwulk Fair
grounds, last Thursday night, was ur-
rested Iast evening. In Bridgeport. by
Detective Edward Croniin. Pierson ud-
mits the charge of assault. but claims
that he did the deed in self defense.
Captain R. N. Morehouse, of the
Norwalk police force went to Bridge-
port, this mornliig. and brought the
prisoner to Norwnlk. Hts case will
come up for a hearing In the town
court. this afternoon. hilt this formal-
Ity will undoubtedly be short, and
Pierson will. without doubt, be bound
over to the higher court.
The Norwalk police had sent descrip-
tions of the man about the state, and
Captain Morchouso visited Bridgeport
personally. as it was expected. and
rightly. that Pierson would go there.
Detective Cronan captured Pierson In
the section of Bridgeport known as the
West End. A gang of trauma have
been hanging out there for some time,
and since Saturday fifty of the craft
have been captured in the search for
the man wanted hero.
Pierson was seen In the Norwalk
police station, this morning, by a Sen-
it to save himself. It was the inten-
iity. He was of the opinion that some
people. called hlni by the name of
“Scotty” because of the accent to his
speech. He says he is of Scotch-Irish
extraction.
Captain Morcliouse and Prosecuting
Attorney Williaui I“. Tammany had
quite a long conference with the pris-
oner in his cell. but they refused to
give out much Infornmtion.
Pierson said that it was true that
he committed the assault, bill he did
it to savch imseif. It was the inten-
tion of the police at first to take Pier-
son to the hospital for London to Iden—
tify him, but it was later decided not
to. for the reason that the man ad-
mitted In a measure his giillt.
The police are also looking for an»
other man, a German. who is known
by the nature of George. From what
can now be learned It appears that the
‘ight on ’I‘Indall‘s l-lill dill not end
there. blit was continued on the Fair
Grounds, at night.
Pierson Is quite respectable looking.
