Vertical
Writing
Change of the Present
System in the Schools
Coos Over for One Month
—Acting Visitors to [n-
gage iligh School Teachers
for Next Year

A meeting of the Board of School
Visitors was held last evening in the
office of Jtidge John H. Light. Mr.
Keith and Mr. Glover were absent.
Mr. Wheeler was voted chairman and
the minutes were read and approved.
The next business taken up was an
application that Mary McNerney, of
Over River school. may attend the
Center district school. The application
was granted.

The matter of writing books was laid
on the table. Mr. Light moved that
the Merrill modern vertical writing
system be added to the list. This ac-
tion was the subject of comment by
Mr. Graham. lie said that he was
opposed to the vertical system. as Mr.
Tucker had said that the children are
getting along nicely. "We hold a very
anomalous position. We seek to mod-
ify it which We. adopted. 1 may be
old fashioned. but i do pretend to
know something about it. i learned
under an excellent penman. I can see
beauties in the Spencerian System.
The vertical is not a rapid hand, it
is not desired by the business men.
Children who learned the vertical are
now dragging their letters after them.
I can read the characters of the writers
of the Spencerian hand almost as if
i could hear his voice, Mr. Light ask-
cd him if he had learned the system.
“i do not think that we, are to aban-
don chirography.“ said Mr. Graham.
"1 think that the typewriter will go out
of use; it is a fad. it will go out of
use. The lazy dignitaries will use the
typewriter."

Mr. Light said that a judge will
hardly rcceivo a paper unless it is
typewritten.

Mr. Graham said that the change of
eighteen degrees meant getting away
from the vertical system. He was
shown that this change is to obviate
this difficulty. Mr. Light brouglii out

' the fact that tire‘yortlcal system is
much more legible.

Mr. Tucker said that be thought the
gentlemen should set» some. of the work
of the children. He had noticed .a

. CIGARMAKERS WANT MORE.

Stamford Manufacturers Asked for an

increase In Wages.
Union cigarmakers in Stamford and
vicinity have'riatcly been considering

a demand for increased wages. and it

is said that a demand will be made for

an increase of about 10 per cent. June

1. says the Stamford Advocate. There

are said to be other demands which

cause the bosses uneasiness. One

of the cigar manufacturers in Stam-
. ford says that. so far as he can learn.
i the men employed in the trade here
are satisfied. iSui the organization to
which they belong has ordered the de-
mand and they will have to stand by
i .
r' “So far as Stamford is concerned,"
[ said the manufacturer. "we are paying
‘ all the businesswili stand. The wages
* here are higher than they are in New
York. and in case a demand for an in-
crease is pressed we shall seriosuly
consider the question of giving up the
manufacturing part of otir business,
and buying cigars from New York fac-
tories. i believe we could save mon-
ey in that way."

The story front Norwalk. whence it
seems the demand emanates. is that
the cigarmakers have been working
on the same seals for thirteen years.
~ The cost of living has. they say. in-

creased during that period, and wages
‘ haveheen increased in other trades.
i They claim that they should share in

the general wage increase.

IN RAIliiOAIi AVENUE

Timothy J Sullivan Hoo Piano Out for
tho Erection of a Throo- -Story
Structure.

 

Timothy J. Sullivan, who has been
in business in Railroad avenue for sev-
eral years, has had plans made for the
erection of a new building on his rc-
ccntly acquired property at the corner
of Railroad avenue and Monroe street.
The building proposed will be of brick,
twenty-five by forty-five feet. and will
be three stories in height. Mr. Sulli-
van proposes to occupy the first floor
of the building, which will be fitted up

or a cafe. with a kitchen and lunch
counter in the rear. The two upper
doors will be fitted tip as apartments.
with all the latest improvements, and
will be leased to responsible parties.

Local contractors are at present cs-
timating on the building. which will
cost complete in the neighborhood of
$4.000 or 35.000. Mr, Sullivan hopes to
get the excavation started in about two
weeks. The building will front on
Railroad avenue. and will adjoin the
apartment house at presciil owned by
Mr. Sullivan, which faces on Monroe
street,

der arm on May 30. 1903, and it is or-

SOUNDINO THE CHANNEL.

 

Holes and Hills in the. Harbor That
Will Have to be Levoiod Off.

John C. Jessup. .ir.,' the government
surveyor in charge of the dredging in
the South Norwaik harbor. went ar-
ound with a pole, this week, and sound-
ed the channel of the harbor its entire
length. it was supposed to be dug to a
uniform depth of ten feet at low tide.
As was expected, it was found that
there were holes and hills and many
of the latter will have to be leveled
off,

The digger has completed the work
between the bridges and commenced
leveling of! the channel bottom accord-
ing to the revelation of the soundings.
This will take about two days. The
digger will then start on a little private
work in the harbor.

First a berth is to be excavated in
front of the Norwalk iron Works dock.
above the railroad bridge. Then Ray-
mond Brothers are going to have some
digging done in front, of their dock.
where the channel does not come with-
in twelve feet of the dock. it is also
possible that some digging will be done
for the Radel Oyster Company, but
this is not sure. The contractors hope
to get all this work done this week.

A special train of twelve cars passed.
througlt this city this morning bound
for New Redford with the Portuguese
passengers and crew of the abandoned

hard looking crowd and plainly show-

Grand Master Carpenter
Cave Iiis Annual Report
on the Condition of the

 

Order

NEW HAVEN, May 20—Tho annual
session of the Grand Lodge of Odd Fel-
lows of (lonnotticut missed this morn
ing after the past grand degree had
been conferred on 100 candidates.
'ihe report of Grand Master James A
Carpenter. of Torrington. declared that
the order is in a very prosperous con-
union that peace and harmony we-
ran, and nothing has occurred detri-
mental to the workings of the order
in this jurisdiction."

'1 here has been an increase in mem-
bership of 333, the total membership
boiiig 18.;014 also an increase in re
ceipts and a consequent gain in the
amount added to funds on hand.

'."lhif-l said the grand master, “is very
gratifying. particularly so from the
fact that the. country has passed
through a very critical period of labor
troubles and the excitement consc.
quent thereon naturally had a tendency
to create interest in outside matters.
not beneficial to the increase of frater-
nal society membership: but i am
pleased to state that the outlook for
the future is very bright for a contia
ounce. of prosperity of our order.

‘ i am pleased to report that there is
a vast improvement in rendering the
secret work, and i find the work is
more uniform throughout the jurisdic-
tion that it has ever been before. i
attribute this to the interest that that
has been taken by the efficient corps
of district deputies, grand masters and
special deputies. Suspensions for non-
payment of dues for the year are not
as large as they were under my prede-
cessor. But the percentage is alto-
gether too large for this jurisdiction
This is a subject that requires n good
deal of careful thought and considera-
tion and I trust that this grand body
will be able to solve the problem.

“it is also with pleasure that 1 note
that the Rebekah Lodges of this
state are in a prosperous condition
notwithstanding the fact that the sus-
pensions for non- payment of dues are
large. Their degree work is of a very
high standard and they are all labor
ing together for the good of the order.
i trust the day is not for when it may
be realized by the establishing of an
orphanage.“ '

in conclusion the grand master rec-
onimended an increase in the salary
of the grand secretary. Frederick Bots-
lord. calling attention to the burden-
some duties devolving upon that of
flee. He said: "This grand patriarch
has devoted his time and money in
bet ng to make this jurisdiction one
of t e loading jurisdictions under the
sovereign grand lodge. When the or-
der was in its infancy in this state.
Brother Botsford took hold to build it
up. expecting nothing for his labor. But
it has now reached a point where it is
well to consider that we have passed
the 18.000 mark in membership in the
membership in the subordinate lodges,
and 6.000 membership in the Rebek-
ah lodge. making a total of 24.no0 mem-
bers in the two branches of the order.
which represents 140 lodges. i would
recommend that this grand body take
some action and give him the consid~
oration and salary as we would have
to give to his successor.

The report of the grand secretary
and committee reports Were present
ed at the conclusion of the reading of
the grand master's address.

The grand secretary‘s report showed
the present number of lodges to be 89;
total receipts of subordinate lodges for
the year 1902. 8167.896: paid for relief.
871.380: paid for expenses. 871.078: bal-
ance. 825.487; making the total fund
for January 1. 1903. 8530.0“.

The present membership, including a
new lodge just instituted is 18.082. The
total membership of the Rebekah
Lodges is 5.887. a loss of 66.

This afternoon officers were elected.
Frank R Upson. of Sonthington. norn-
inated for grand master. and Calvin S.
Davis, of Niantic. nominated for depu-
ty grand master. were considered for
election. as there were no other nom-
inatlons.

machine factory which bears his name
in Water street. was painfully and ser
ioutiiy injured yesterday. He was ex
coedingiy fortunate not to lmvo been
killed. Today he is resting comfort
ably at the home of his brother, David
Miller, 33 Elmwood avenue.

Mr. Miller was at work at his shop *—

as usual yesterday at about 11:4o
o‘clock. He was standing by a heavy
coil of iron pipe which was fastened
to a heavy wooden frame. in some
way this became unbalanced and fell
over. it struck a machine there
which partially broke its fall. but its
weight alone was sufficient to
crush Mr. Miller badly. His head
was cut and bruised. one side was
bruised and his shoulder was thrown
out of joint. His left thumb was cut
and his legs were. badly cut and bruis-
ed The iron work which fell on him
most have weighed about 700 pounds.
Dr. Cronin. of South Main street.
was immediately called. Ho dressed
Mr. Miller's wounds and took care of
him. He was later joined by Dr. Bur-
nesa. Mr. Miller's family physician.
The ambulance was sent from the Nor-
walk hospital for Mr. Miller and be
was taken to the home of his brother.
This morning it was reported that he
was very much more comfortable.

KRAUSSE BUES FOR DIVORCE.

Wants to bo Freed from Woman who
leod With Stephen Morris.

The latest and probably last chap
ter in the malodorous Kransae case,
which has been before the South Nor-
waik public during the last few months,
was commenced today. when Krnusse
instituted a suit for divorce from his
wife.

The facts of the troubles in the
Krausse family are briefly that Mrs.
Krnusse was untrue to her banana
and both she and the alientor of her
affections, Stephen Morris. a colored
man of Ely avenue, are doing time in
the Bridgeport jail. Both were arrest-
ed by the police on charges of adultery
preferred by Krausse. While Mrs.
Krausae was awaiting trial in Bridge
port a little colored baby was born‘ at
the Bridgeport hospital.

Papers were served yesterday in the
case of Gustave Krausse vs. Mary E.
Krausse. asking a divorce upon statu
ary grounds and naming Stephen Mor.
ris as the correspondent. She has sev-
en months to serve and Morris ten
months before he will be at liberty
again.
