suit brought against Charles W. Whit-
lock, of Wilton. principal of the Whit-
lock school in that town, by one of his
pupils Leonie G. Franco, a resident of
Puerto lilco. in which he alleges that
he did not have enough to eat there.

The papers were served by Deputy
Sheriff John W. Sculley yesterday and
Attorney John Keogh Is counsel for
Franco. the plaintiff.

The case Is returnable before John ll.
Lawrence. as justice of the peace, as
there Is no justice III Wilton before
whom the case can be tried. The
counts in the complaint state that the
deft-Infant is owner of a school In Wil-
ton and that be solicited students by
advertising in the Puerto Rico Herald
of July 12, 1902, and on other dates.
A copy of his advertisement is ap-
pended in the counts. On June 13 toe.
plaintiff and defendant entered Into a
verbal agreement whereby the plaintiff
was to pay $150 for six months board
and tuition. The complaint further
sets forth that the board was not of the
kind set out in the rosy colored ad-
vertisement and the food furnished was
not good. nor In sufficient quantities.
so that the plaintiff was compelled to
obtain board and pay for It outside the
school, Franco after he found he could
not, stand the board at the school went
to board with Charles Mann, of Wilton.
He claims that Whitlock has not ful-
filled his part of the contract. and that
when he went to board outside Whit-
lock told him he must remain on the
place and under school discipline
twenty‘four hours a day or else leave.
This Franco declined to do. Franco
claims 8200 damage.

it Is understood that If this suit ls
successful several other of the students
who have come from our foreign po-
sessions. and who have been studying
at the school will bring stilt against
Whitlock.

The case of a school boy bringing
stilt on account of the "grub” Is cer-
tainly unique. In law practice in Con~

Englandm and Scotland

Pastor of First Conpmoltlonal Church
Tells of Trip Thrduqh Those In-
teresting “unifies.

._...."-—l

The Rev, George D. Exbcn gave the
first of a series of lectures on his re-
cent trip to the British Isles. last even-
ing, at the Norwalk Congregational
Church, before a large. audience, which
was most attentive and thoroughly en-
‘joyed the evening. ;

The. pastor took for his subject "Here
and There to England and Scotland."
and augmented his lecture with a large
number of handsome stercoptlcan dis-
solving views, thrown on a large sheet,
covering more than 600 square feet.
Many of the views were photographed
by Mr. Egbert on his trip. He was ac-
companied by Deacon .I. R, Marvin
and one of the pictures showed the
pastor and Mr. Marvin on the ship
which conveyed them to England.

In opening views were shown of the
steamer on leaving New York and
then across the great pond to England
and Scotland. The Working of the
wireless telegraph wem explained were
as were also other Interesting features.
The pictures of London were very fine
but equally good were the other pict-
ures of England and Scottish scenery.
the lakes, mountains, etc.

During the course of the lecture, ex-
tracts were read from Wordswortb's
works and from Sir Walter Scott's
beautiful “Lady of the Lake." Colo-
crldc. Southey and other celebrated
authors were also alluded to.

That the public appreciates a lecture
of this character was thoroughly evinc-
ed by the close attention the speaker
held. The steroptican was operated
by Mrs, Egbert from the gallery and
the pastor was also stationed near the
lantern. In addition to the views tak-
en by Mr. Egbert, others had been pro-
cured to more profusely Illustrate the
lecture.

There are to be two more lectures.
the second to be given two weeks
hence.

Mr. Egbert and Mr. Marvin made an
extensive tour of the British Isles and
as a result Mr. Egbert has a large fund
of knowledge on the subject. At the
next lecture Ireland will be taken up
and as the scenery of the Emerald
Isle Is of exceeding beauty another
large audience will greet the pastor.

Previous to last evening’s lecture.
Alexander 8. Gibson, gave an organ
concert which was not the least fea-
ture of the evening.

The program follows: Prelude and
Fugue In G. Book 2. No. 2. .I. S. Bach.

John O'Sullivan. a. published report
to the contrary notwithstanding, does
not intend to erect a hotel at Gregory's
Point for next year. Mr. O'Sullivan
does. however. expect to build a good
sized dining room building. which will
contain a few other small rooms for
private dinner parties. Mr. O'Sulllvan
has found that his present quarters
at the Point are entirely inadequate
for the business during the summer
season. He believes that the site of

N0 TROUBLE IN NORWALK.

 

 

Liquor Dealers Decided to Stand by the
Old Town.

Contrary to expectations the coun-
ty commissioners experienced no
trouble of any kind when they went
to Norwalk Monday to receive an
plicatlons for the renewal of liquor
licenses. says the Bridgeport Post.
The applicants seem to have settled
the matter for themselves for they all
brought In their papers endorsed by
the clerk of the old town.

The commissioners were prepared
to deal with the matter If any had
brought applications signed by the
clerk of the summed town of South
Norwalk. The commissioners would
have required the applicant to go to
the clerk of the old town and get an-
other cndorsement. As this would
have cost fifty cents more the liquor
dealers no doubt decided/that it would
be cheaper to stand by the old town
for awhile yet.

A total of 62 applications was re-
ceived. The wmmissionors have now
sat In all the big cities of the county
and have received a satisfactory re-
sponse In the way of applications. They
will be prepared to Hunt licenses af-
ter the 21st of this month.

Bank Closed

Decline in the Stock
of the Company Respon-
sible for the Appointment
of a Receiver. and Action
by Comptroller of Currency

PITTSBURG. Pa... Oct. 21.——The
doors of the Federal National Bank
Were not opened for business this morn-
lng. The following notice was posted
in explanation:

“Closed by the authority of the Comp—
trollcr of the Currency. (Signed)
"JOHN B. CUNNINGHAM, Receiver."

Some such action as this has been
within the possibilities for the past twu
days. forecasted by the determined
raid made upon the Institution's stock
on the I’lttslnlrg Stock Exchanges.
The positive statements, however. of
the president. J. A. Langliit. to the ef-
fect that the bank was not In need of
money. and that its losses would not at-
fect Its capital or surplus did much
to ward allaylng disaster on the part
of its depositors, thus preventing a run.

The closing of the bank was decided
upon at a meeting of the directors last
night. which did not break up until :
o'clock this morning. At that hour
none of the officials would make‘a state-
ment, and locally the outcome of the
meeting was not generally known until
the receiver‘s notice.was posted at 9
o'clock.

The bank Is a United States deposi-
tory and reported on hand September
9. 850.000 of United States deposits.

The stock of the company has been
subjected to sharp declines on the Pitts-
bnrg Exchange this week. Monday the
stock sold from 115 to lib. but. was forc-
ed up again to ill]. All day yesterday
It sagged and the closing quotations
were 80 bid and 85 asked, a number of
transactions having been made at 80.

The course of the stock has attracted
much attention and numerous adverse
reports were In circulation but they
were promptly and fully denied by
President J. A. Imngfltt. He. stated
yesterday evening that the bank had
suffered only one possible loss. that of
$140,000, for which it held notes of the
Eastern Tube Company. of Zanesvllle.
That company is in the hands of a re
ceiver. and a plan of reorganization is
being worked out. he said. and the.
bank's loss on that account may be
small.

the closing of the Federal National
Ilank had apparently but little effect
on the local stock exchange. Trading
was light but. firm at about yesterday's
closing quotations. No dealings In
any of the local bank stocks were re-
corded during the first hour‘s trading
and no unusual action Is Iokcd for to
day. In a general way banking officials
of the city feel confident that the Fed-
eral National Bank‘s troubles will be.
confined to itself and will not disturb
any other financial institution.

Receiver Cunningham thinks it may
be two or three days before he can
hilllke an estimate of the bank's condi-
t on.

Up to 11 o‘clock' neither President
Langfitt nor any of the directors have
arrived at the bank. and a statement
as to the cause of the falliire has not
been made public.

ed through Norwalk Monday. They

Mrs. Babcock. Sr. Mr. Babcock is
president of the Buffalo Electric Car-
riage Company. manufacturers of the
machine. The trip ran on an average
forty-seven miles on each charge, The
trip was made in an entirely leisurely
manner and was to demonstrate that
the trip could be easily made.

FINCH BANKRUPTCY CASE.

After three adjournments the estate
of Frank M. Finch in bankruptcy final-
ly came up before Referee John W.
Banks. in Bridgeport, yesterday. The
hearing was a rather spirited one and
lasted from 10 a. In. to 3 o'clock. After
Referee Banks had passed on several
contested claims he ruled that Joseph
R. Taylor, of South Norwalk. repre-
sented a majority of the creditors and
his choice for trustee, William S. Wil-
