rangements more convenient than they
have been. The cafe will not be open
until after next Monday. when MRllti-
ger James S. Kelly and Mr. Burke will
arrive for the season.

weeks. and they are expected to be fin-
ished within the next week. They are
all of a bright yellow with black trim-
mings. and present it fine appearance.

——Musical and literary
Programs

Last night the heat and general lin-
niidity was very oppressing. It was
just the kind of Weather to make a
strawberry and ice cream festival the.
most popular form of diversion. There
were three. which were largely attend-
ed. One was given by the local Y. M.
(t. A., at. the Association quarters In
South Main street, another was given
by the Ladies” Aid Society of the Eat-it
Norwalk Methodist Church. and the
third to the Norwalk Methodist Epis-
copal Church. All of them were large
Iy attended. and were financial and so-
cial successes.

lit the Y. M. C. A., tables had been
spread upon the cool and shady lawn.
A nice breeze made It one of the cool-
est spots in town. and people flocked
there to get away from the heat. The
committee which had charge of the
affair were Mrs. Lucien l't. Bouton and
Mrs. Leslie Smith. The entertainment
committee comprised Mrs. C. F. Bout-
wcll and Mrs. .I. H. linndle. These
four ladies were responsible to a great
degree for the success which attend-
ed the. affair. During the time‘occupied
by those who pariook of the cream and
strawberries, the Y. M. C. A. Orches-
tra furnished several selections. An-
other cvcut on the program was the
rendition by Miss ldclla Darrow, of a
very fine piano solo. which was encor-
ed. She was followed by Miss (‘Iurn
Velsor. who performed excellently on
the piano. Mr. Merriam officiated next
at. the piano. being followed by a man-
dolin solo by William Elzca. Mr. El.
zoa was accompanied by Mr. Merriam.
The musical program pleased tho and-
ience greatly.

The waiters were all young men.
members of the Associalion. Among
them were Leslie Corliam. Harry Wes.
ton and Harold Rundlo. Quite a large
:imtllllli was cleared. which will be ap-
plied to the benefit of the association.

East Avenue Methodist,

The attendance was very large at,
the East Avenue Methodist Church.

 

 

where a similar entertainment was in ,

progress. Though it was very hot
there. during the early part of the ev-
ening, a nice breeze sprung up. and it
was very much more. comfortable iat-
cr. The affair was in charge of Mrs.
.limmersou and a number of competent
aides. who carried the affair through
to a successful conclusion. The edi-
blots were excellent and were dalntily
served and eaten in an appreciative
manner. A short musical and literary
program was rendered. The artists
were Mr. and Mrs. E. l. Merriam. who
gave several vocal selections: miss
Ethel Parmelee. who recited. and Miss
Morgan. -All were received with evi-
dent pleasnre by the audience and
were encored after each of their ef-
forts.

Much cream was eaten and the net
amount realized from the festival will
be upwards of Sill.

Norwatk Methodist.

The Ladies' Aid Society of the Nov-
walk Methodist Church held a very
successful festival in the Sunday
school room of the church. When the
festival began, the sky had every as-
pect of a thunder shower. but there
was a large number in attendance
throughout the evening. .

The program of entertainment con-
sisted of a piano duet by Mrs. Stumpf
and Miss Ellen Moore. vocal solos by
Miss Stimb, vocal trio by Mrs. H. M.
Kent. Miss Stash and Mrs. Stumpf. 80-
lo by Mrs. Stumpf and vocal solo by

which was enjoyed by all.

Ice cream and strawberries were
served. The ice cream was in charge
of Mrs. Lewis J. Reynolds and Mrs.
Lizzie Coleburn.

Mrs. Thomas Sterling and Mrs.
George W. Raymond were in charge
of the strawberries and the cake was

The drought is getting serious. it
has only rained cube in six weeks. The
ground is dry and parched. Fields
which should be damp and covered
with waving green grass are gray and
dry. There will be practically no hay
crop from the country in this vicinity
union it is a very late one indeed and
even this cannot. be expected unless
there comes a groin deal of rain in a
very short limo. hooterday notices
were served on theiresideiita of Nor-

from the reservoir) wastefnlly or need-
lessly. The water it therefore turned
off at. 7 o'clock. p. m.. to prevent them
from doing so. This causes consider-
able hardshlp and a fairly long and
heavy rain will be necessary to fill the
reservoir above the danger point. South
Norwaik has plenty of water. but Nor-
walk's supply is diminishing rapidly.

The. small frntt'nnd’berry crops have
already been ruined and it Is estimated
by the farmers and growers that those
win not amount to half their usual size.
The fruit will be neither plentiful nor
of the best quality. Lawns are drying
up right in the center of the city and
even where they are sprinkled every
day the ground is. in a few hours. as
drv as tinder again.

The roads are so dusty that there is
scarcelyany driving for pleasure and

to be a failure. Prices are higher than

it is said that the strawberry crop
In these parts will be a failure on ac
count of the drought. Pasture lands
also show the effects of want of rain.
and if the dry spell continues much
longer it In said that the price of but~
for will be advanced.

Yesterday it was hoped that a show-
er. would come to relieve the situation.
but. while it lightened and thundered
all around town. there was no rain, and
the disappointment was great. Unless
some. rain comes in a very few days.
the loss to agricnitnrista In these parts

damages are repaired by Saturday. will

"flier two.

Although the absence of the Con-
atltntion somewhat marred the interest.
in today‘s race, still there were plenty
of yachting enthusiasts who came
down from New York today to see the
other boats. The early arrivals. how-
ever. did not flint racing conditions Dar-
tlciilitrly favorable. At 8 o'clock. four
hours before the, time fixed for start-
ing the. race. the placid waters of the
Sound showed not even a ripple.

Nowhere was there the slightest
trace of a breeze. However. the main-
sailc on both yachts were up by 8:30
o‘clock. the Columbia hoisting hers
while at anchor in the Cove. while Re-
liance sent hers up before she left New
Rochelle on the other side of the
Sound. The air was delightfully clear.
and the Connecticut shore could be
seen for many miles. The regatta coni-
mlttec of the New York Yacht Club.
under whose auspices the yachts will
meet in a majority of races this year.
had laid out three triangular courses
for the yachts off Glen Cove. with the
start in all of them from the buoy riff

was a small. almost equilateral trian-
gle of about five miles to a side with a
provision for sailing It twice round. or

courses were obtuse triangles. one of
them having it long log down the

Connecticut shore and back to tlie‘fin-

log down the. Sound. but with another
long leg up the Sound to a buoy off
Rye, and then back to the, finish.

The obtuse triangles were. about
twenty-slit miles round. it was ex-

NEW LAUNCH IN THE HARBOR.

C. A. Freeman'n Vouol n Notable Ac-
quisition to Not-walk Fleet.

The new boat which has lately been
constructed for C. Albert Freeman. at
Crotch-on-the-Hndson. has been com-
pieted and has been brought. to Smith
Norwalk by Mr. Freeman. The craft
arrived early In the week. and is a do
clded addition to the launches now in
the harbor. She is constructed along
the same lines as Editor James
Golden's Roma [L which was built at
the same place. She is also equipped
with the same style of engine. The
machinery needed some slight regula-
tien when'leavlng Croton, and it was
found necessary to Sign at Stamford to
make some minor changes in regard to
its installation, but after that. the ves-
sel came along to Norwalk very nicely.
The boat is a very comfortable one.
thoroughly seaworthy and equipped
with a trunk cabin. She is finished in
hard wood and has the latest style of
torpedo stern.

 

TRUCK HORSES RUN AGAIN.
The book and ladder truck of the Old
Well Company was in another runaway
today and sustained further damage.
Driver McPherson had harnessed up
the horses preparatory to taking them
out for their daily exercise. He was
just about to mount the driver‘s seat.
when the spirited animals started
down the street at a rapid pace, but
were soon brought to a standstill. The
truck struck a telegraph pole and
broke the whlil'iotree. No other dam-
age was done, however.

LICENSE To HANDLE EXPLOSIVES

A license is now required to handle
compounds more explosive than gun
powder. The permits are issued by
Town Clerk Herbert-R. Smith and cost
twenty-five cents. The permit states
how many pounds are to be used and
for what purpose. Dealers are also
required to have licenses, which cost
them $5 per your. The penalty is very
severe for infringement on the law, To
use explosives mentioned without the
permit, make- : per-on liable to a
muimum fine of 810.000 or five years

KIND WORD CIRCLE ENTERTAINS.

 

Pleasing Program Rendered In the Nor-
walk Congregational Chapel.

Kind Word Circle, King's Daughters.
of the Norwalk Congregational Church.
gave a very successful entertainment
last evening at the chapel. Although
the attendance was not large. probably
due to the hoped for thunder storm.
which, alas, did not materialize. the
young ladies had sold many tickets
which were not represented. and the
financial result was very satisfactory.

The absence of the Y. M. C. A. Oi"
chestra. which was engaged a month
ago. was the only disappointing fea-
ture. The program consisted of play-
ing upon the glasses by Rev. G. D. Eg-
bert: solos entitled “Rainbows." C. B.
Hawiey, and Rosary, E. Nevin. by Miss
Edition: a humorous recitation, "Slid-
Ing Down Hill," delightfully rendered
by Miss Mabel Kellou: whistling solos
by Mrs. Oscar Canfleid. accompanied
by Miss Minnie Wixon, and solos. "Sail
Ho." and
or 8. Stanley.

After the program the young ladies
served cream and cake. This circle is
the youngest of all the circles connect-
ed with the Congregational Church.
Miss Bessie Mallory Stanley is proof-
dent. Hazel Paddock. secretary. and
Miss Clara Hendrickson. treasurer.

Remain at Present Rate
for a While

it was announced from the local of-
fice of the Connecticut Railway and
Lighting Company by Superintendent.
A. V. Wainwright, that there had been
made a radical change in the price of
Illuminating gas within the town lim-
Its. The decrease is no less than lif-
teen cents per thousand cubic feet of
gas. The present price is $1.70 per
thousand. After the reduction goes In-
to effect the price will be $1.56 per
thousand.

In addition to this. there will be a.
reduction of ten cents per thousand
feet in case the bills are paid before

 

the tenth of the month. in which they '

become due. This will make the price
81.45 pr thousand.

These rates will not go into effect
until the June bills are issued. and will
not apply to the bills for gas used dur'
ing the present month. The change
in the rates applies only to the Illum-
inating gas. and the price of fuel gas
remains the same. $1.85. with ten cents
off if paid before the tenth of the
month.
