Controversies in the De-

nue and Water Street
layouts and Assessments
The feature of absorbing interest or
the meeting of the Common Council of
South Norwaik. last evening. was a
prolonged discussion regarding the
much- talked-of clash of authority
among the officers of the tire depart-
ment This discussion grew general
among the members of the Council and
Mayor Cavanagh took a hand in it.
The discussion ended in the passage of
a city ordinance regarding the duties
of officers of the department. which. it
is hoped. will settle the controversy
Another important matter which was
enacted. was the order for placing
lights under the Monroe street bridge.
which has long been a rather danger-
nus spot.
Other things were also taken up. and
though the meeting was a short one, it
was full of interest from beginning to
end.,~ Mayor Cavanagh called the ses-
sion to order. All the members of the
Council were present. and business be-
gun. The first matter which was taken
up was the report of the committee on
lamps. This was as follows:
Gentlemen: The undersigned com-
mittee on lights, respectfully recom-
mends ‘.the placing of four electric
lights under the Monroe street bridge.
in said city. two under the bridge and
over the walk on the south side of
said street and twa under the bridge
and over the walk on the ill side of
said street.

SHOULD PROVIDE COOL WATER.
A Correspondent Believes Something
is Lacking at the Shore Resorts.
South Norwulk. July 13. 1903.
Mr. Editor: After the crowds have
patronized the trolley cars, and also
the attractions on the grounds at Rol-
on Point. and spent their money freely
elsewhere. would it be asking the com-
pany too much to have refreshing wat«
er placed around the grounds so that a
fellow could get a drink. .
i suppose the company says: “Why
don't you buy a drink if you are dry?”
Now, Mr. Editor, you know and ev-
eryone else knows that when one is
really dry nothing will give relief like
nice cool water. To be sure they
have a barrel of water on the grounds.
but what kind of water is it?
it is as warm as the tail end of a
Fourth of July sky rocket.
Have you noticed what nice water
there is at Glen island and other pleas-
ure resorts? What is a summer re
sort if nice cool water is not to be ob-
tained?
There has been quite a little com-
plalni because of the lack of this prec
vious fluid and the company would lad
that the people w0uld thank them if
they remedied this evil. 1 don’h pro
tend to be an orator. or a preacher of

An alarm of fire from box 45. at the
corner of Concord and Chestnut

Norwalk Fire Department to No
41 Chestnut street, in the double

The fire proved to be in the
rilimiioy of the apartment occupied by

one extinguisher from the truck and
two from the Putnam Hose supply wag~
on. the blaze was quickly extinguished.
The loss will be slight. all the damage
inside the house having been done by
smoke. and is covered by Insurance.
The tire was caused by soot in the
chimney. which ignited from a new

had not been used in some time.

still on at press hour. The trouble be-
tween Ryan and Snyder occurred on
July 10. Snyder had hired Ryan to do
some work for him during the day and
in the evening they met in Kesaler's
saloon on the turnpike. Ryan felt that
he could use the money that was owed
to him. so he said. “Don't you owe me
something?" “Yea." replied Snyder. "1
owe you a good licking." One word led
to another and Snyder started to pay
the debt of a good licking which he

indebtedness 070.000.
The County Commissioners yester-
day took up 86,000 more of the bonded
indebtedness of the county, leaving the
total amount of indebtedness $70,000.
in the past few years the board
reduced the bonded debt from Sits. 00
and the annual interest from “,600 to
about 82.600,
2 At present there are outstanding
830,000 3% per cent. bonds. and 840,-
000 in notes at 4 per cent. The last
General Assembly authorized the bourd
to take up 845. 000 in bonds and issue
notes for the same at a lower rate of
interest. These bonds were held out
side the state.
The commissioners secured the
money from Bridgeport banks at 4 per
cent., giving the county's note. Be-
ginning Auguat 1. when the new law
takes effect the county will receive 10
per cent. from all the license money.
which will increase the receipts fully
812. 000. Although the county may
have some extra expenses in the next
few years. the prospects are good for
a steady decrease of the debt. The
notes can be paid off gradually and the
outstanding bonds can be taken up at
the convenience of the county.
