Shot- guns and Pistols Wore In Evi- dence and Everybody Fought. A number of the residents of the Hroolislde district. In Rowayton, are up In arms over the actions tha‘ occurred on Sunday afternoon. it would appear that a picnic was in progress at the home of Joseph Erdos. who occupies the Avery property. Be- fore the festivl‘les ceased there was certainly a most strenuous time, as one, man had his leg broken. others were present with shot guns and revolvers and threatened the annihilation of the household. and several more were bad- Iy battered up. and have not appeared In society since the Incident here re- corded. Erdos is said to deliver beer for a would appear that he had a large quan- tity of the amber lliild on hand In antic- ipation of the big gathering of Sunday. Everyone present became more or less intoxicated, and about 6 o'clock the big fight of the day commenced. Men punt meled and battered each other while the women and children screamed. Fin. ally in nearby resident wont to his home. and procured his trusty shot gun. and then appeared on the scene. It is con- sidered a wonder that he was not killed before he had a chance to use It. It is said the weapon was intended to be used on the host. but before the man could get at him. one of the guests stepped in fronf of the irate German with the gun. and the guest was promptly knocked down, and jumped In addition to his other injuries one of his legs was broken. The man was a boarder at the Nrdoa house. and Dr. F. I. Burnell was summoned from South. Norwalk to a‘tend him. This wound up the picnic for the time being and several wagon loads of guests then started to drive to their places of residence In Springwood. The neighbors state that If there is ever a repetition of Sunday's proceed- ings there will certainly be a complaint made to the proper authorities. and ar- rests on serious charges will follow. SOME‘VICTIMI IN TOWN COURT. Two Wars Sent to Jail by Judge Tay- lor and One Had Sentence Ous- pended. Martin Smiushmire, of Clay street became drunk yesterday afternoon and behaved in a very disorderly and riot- ous manner. He at last became unbear- able to his friends and It was decided that the best thing to do would be to is morning came before the town cent: on, charges ’of drunksol ness and breach of the peace. He who fined 37 and ecstatic could not pay. so he will be compelled to work the sum out in the Bridgeport jail. Charles Yohnsen. of Georgetown, came to South Norwalk yesterday, ltr tent upon becoming intoxicated. He succeeded beyond his expectatidns. He got drunk enough to last him for quite a while and was arrested in the bar- gain. Iie was lined $6 and costs, was unable to pay and went to jail.

Dpoood with Promising Doridltlrus—Many Improve- ments Mada Diving Sum- mer Vacation The schools in East Norwalk opened last Tuesday. under the most promis— ing conditions. During the first morn- ing over five hundred and twenty children were enrolled. old now there are over five hundred and sixty. This means that about fifty more pupils have entered than during the same time last year. The Pitch Kindergarten has enrolled more than eighty pupils, and the first room in the Marvin School has nearly seventy. Other rooms also are over- crowded and the school committee ls considering the advisability of opening a regular kindergarten at the Marvin School to relieve the pressure, It is believed thata are-organisation of all the primary classes is necessary to make careful work possible. and all pupils who wish the benefit of this re- grading should be registered at once. All children who expect to enter school this fall should do so now. , During the summer the school com- mittee has improved both the school- houses and grounds. 0n the Pitch playground the knoll In the west cor- uer has been leveled off. and the soil used to fill In the hollows. Although one of the fine old clms was over- thrown by the severe storm of last August. some live or at: young trees set out last Arbor Day are taking a good hold. On the Marvin grounds the tar walks have been repaired and the janitor has developed one of the best public school lawns to be found in the state. The community generally. as well as the pupils and teachers of the Marvin School are proud of Its well kept ap- pearance. its pleasing outlines. and its commodious Interior. At the Fitch School no change has occurred in the teaching force. Room A. the Kindergarten. is in charge of Miss A. Louise stson. assisted by Miss Helena A Mitchell: room S. Miss Carrie A. Petty; room C, Miss Alice Rider; room D. Miss Cecile Osborn: room ill. Miss Nellie Fancher: room It‘. Miss Julia J. Stow; room G. Miss Bes- sie Birge; room H, Miss Susie Mors- house.

The eighth grade .in room F. to at present. without a regular teacher. but the committee are making every effort to secure a good one for this import- ant placs. Miss Maude E. Wolfe is to take charge of the physical training. and Miss Addie F, lioiiton is to organ- iao the drawing in both schools. It is evident that East Norwalk is experiencing another boom In Its school population.‘ but through the ex- cellent foresight displayed in building the new school. the district is provid- with class rooms enough to accom- modate all its children for several years. When It Is remembered that last Norwalk owes less than a thous- and dollars not. on Its excellent school properties. the citisens of this com- munity are to be congratulated. AT THE IROOKSIOE SCHOOL.

The City of Norwalk is again short of water at the distributing reservoir on Spring Hill.

The commission- ers expect. to have the new sixteen Inch main connected by November 1st and it is not believed that there will be any further trouble.

R. Bennett. In speaking of the new lithu ogrnphic concern. which It is hoped to locate in South Norwalk. There were fortywtwo lots to be sold in all. Twen- ty-soven of them are gone now and fifteen remain. This matter of fifteen lots may be the means of losing to the city a very valuable industry. Unless the people show more public spirit than they have during the past few days it is probable that the deal will not go through. it would not be highly creditable to South Nor-walk If the concern were lost. when success seemed so near. but unless something ls done very soon. that will he the case in a nutshell. To substantiate his remarks. Mr, Bennett showed The Sentinel representative the following letter from the concern. signed by the president: . Mr. M. R. Bennett. Hotel Norwalk. Norwalk. Conn. My Dear Mr. Bennett: You told me when I last saw you. that you would not write until you had something to any. but i did not think that It would be a full week. and it is very essential that we should know with regard to this matter without further delay. We cannot hold the other people off too long. without possible injury to our Interests. Will you not report progress by re- turn mail. with regard to it. Very truly yours. (Signedr The Merchants‘ and Manufacturers Association has learned of the rating of the company. and has found that It is an Al concern. In excellent financial standing. As has been stated beforarln The. Sentinel. the concern has received an offer from another city and unless they can have thclr requests granted by South Norwsllr in a very short time, It is practically certain that they will accept the other offer us they intend to move as soon asgposalble and do not want to lose both the offers. The lots which are to be sold are not to be paid for all at once but It Is arranged so that they may be paid for in easy Installments which would impose no great hardship even on per. sons of moderate means. A number of the business men have promised to take lots. but they seem to be holding off In some unaccountable mariner. if those who have intimated that they would purchase would do so now it would make It very much easier to sell the remaining lots. “He who gives quickly gives twice" will be more than verified in this case. hill.
