Guldcr‘ 3 Hall. Rowayton was Irowd
ed to its utmost capacity Saturday

its first public presentation. The af-
fair was for the benefit of the Rowsy-
hon Fire Department and the large
number of people present. not only
from Rowayton but from all parts of
the tokm, proved conclusively that
whatever this popular organiaztlon
undertakes will receive enthusiastic
support.

The entertainment began with a dc-
Jightfillly wandered duet piano and vio-
lin. entitled The Dangerous Maid
Waltz by Miss Helen Lynch and Hal-
ry Griswold.

W. F. Gould then followed with a
vocal solo. The Absent-Minded Man.
Miss E. Louise Stevens was the piano
accompanist.

The event of the evening, The Mock
Trial, was then presented. Each and
every member of the cast had worked
faithfully to have the. affair pass off
smoothly, and to say that it was a
success would be putting It only too
mildly. They all acted their respec-
five parts creditably. but special men-
tion should be made of Miss Maud
Raymond, whose ability was particu?
larly noticeable. She interpreted
with ease even the most difficult parts,
and proved herself to be an actress of
no mean ability Miss Raymond was
in the leading role. impersonating

held them for the May term of the au-

mer.

Sheriff Hawley remonstrated with
Chief Vollmer concerning taking the
woman .to jail. He said that she
should be taken to a hospital. The
chief had no authority to do other than
take the couple to jail and the woman
and the man were locked up.

Sheriff Hawley summoned Dr. C. L,

Banks advised that she be sent to the
hospital. This was done.

Sheriff Hawtey has written to the

The officer stood on the sidewalk in
front of the entrance to the Gasette
building. waiting for a trolley car,
when happening to look down the
street. he saw the runaway animal com-
ing. Just-at It reached him, the officer
made a dash for the on-rushlng animal.
catching him by the broken bridle. The
runaway horse dragged him Ior a num-
ber of feet and matters looked serious
for the policeman, but he finally over-
came the frightened horse. The turn-
out, which consisted of a horse and
buggy, and owned by Dr. W. B. Bean,
of South Norwalk. was led to Dunn and
Banks‘s stable by bystanders, to await
the owner. while Officer Loatherland
went to South Norwslk on a car.

Gruesome Discovery
Made by William lehey. Jr.
in East Nerwalk, Yester-
day Afternoon—Authori-
ties May Make an Investi-
gallon

The corpse of an infant was discov-
ered floating In a small pool on the
flats of East Norwalk yesterday after-
noon by William Tobey, Jr.. who was
taking a Sunday afternoon walk. The
body was found on the east side of the
Norwalk river about 600 feet above the
railroad drawbrldgc.

The child, when found. was absolute-
ly naked and was considerably decom-
posed. It was a white male child.

The case was immediately reported
to Medical Examiner Huntington, who
went to the place and made an examin-
ation. He ordered the little body taken
to Raymond’s undertaking parlors, in
South Norwallg. This was done and
an examination" was made to ascertain
If possible what caused the infant's
death. ,

Dr. Huntington stated to s Sentinel
reported that he thought that it was
not a case of abortion or murder. but
that the-child was born dead. It had
probably been floating about In the riv-
or for two or three weeks. He said
there was no mark on the child to
indicate that there was anything
criminal In its death. The heartless-
nesa of the mother. however, In throw-
ing the dead child into the river to
save funeral expenses has caused
some people of East Norwslk to feel
somewhat. bitter about the case. They
say that It ought to be ferrctcd out.
