City Reports

Many Matters of Interest
—l’rofocllon from fire
at lloyt’s llioatre

The first smokeless Common Council
so far as known in the history of the
city was held last evening. Mayor
Dow does not smoke. so he wished the
others to refrain, and they have done
so. Hoyt's Theatre was the principal
subject of argument at the hands of
the committees who have been inves-
tigating ll. Councilman Sartaln was
the only one to speak in favor of the
theatre. There was much talk about
it and the reports were accepted. That
seems to be as far as the matter has
progressed. The reports of the dif-
ferent departments of the city show
the flourishing condition of the city.
and advocate many changes which will
be for the better during the coming
year. The city budget for the coming
year. is as follows:

The mmpsuy F basketball team do

took the game in hand early and lead
throughout.

The visitors played a good stiff game
in the first half. but weakened i-on
slderably in the last half giving F'i
Ive an excellent. opportunity to rur.
the score up.

A feature of the game was the goal
throwing by Ghiotto, who has improv-
ed wonderfully lately along this line.
All of the local boys played well last
night. The usual method of substitut
lng three men in the second half war
not followed out last night owing to
the lndlspositlon of .llmmle Riley and
W. F. Ranch. who were not feeling like
playing.

The only change in the lineup was at
center. Tom Dorney played at cents:
during the first half and Jesse Lister
during the second.

The visitors brought with them s

MR. TRYON'I GINEROSITY.

Presents Historical Society with a doc
dnvsnt of considerable Historical value.

The Norwalk Historical and Memor
lsl Library Association rmzoivcd this
morning a gift of lncstimable value
from .iohn Tryon of 92 South Main
street. who is In all probability a lln-
cal descendant of Admiral William
Tryon, the British Admiral. who during
the Revolutionary war burned Nor-
walk. The gift consists of the original
land grant to John Stephlnson of a
large tract of land near Kata Kill. New
York. The grant. which has previous
ly been described in The Sentinel. is
signed by Admiral Tryon, who was at
the time governor of the province of
New York. Mr. Tryon. the owner of
this document. has magnanlmously pro
seated it to the. Historical Society.
where it will be. handsomely framed
and installed in the Selleck house in
West avenue as a memorial of Mr.
Tryon's generosity.

While possessing great sentimental
value to Mr. Tryon himself. the has do
clded that it should be placed where
it may be seen by the public and be
carefully preserved as a relic of in-
terest to future generations. After the
document is framed it will be placed
on exhibition for s time at the South
Norwslk public library, where people
may see it.

Is Retired

Conductor l. Edwin
Smith Completes liilrty-
seven Years of BoiilIniiotis
Service with Railroads in
Bennoclleut

Conductor T. Edwin Smith, of the
New York New Haven and Hartford
railroad. was retired from the service
of the company yesterday and his name
was placed upon the company‘s pension
roll. Mr. Smith had been in the rail-
rosd service for thirty-seven years. all
spent upon trains running in and out
of this city over what is now the Dan-
bury branch of the New York division
—-—lu the early days of Mr. Smith's rail-
road llfo the Danbury and Norwalk
railroad.

Mr. Smith was the oldest conductor
on the New York division. both in age
and years of service. As having been
longest in the service of any man on
-the division his name headed the list
of conductors at division headquarters
and he was entitled to precedence in
the choice of runs. Assignments are
made in accordance with the length of
time a man has been in the road's om-
ploy and Mr. Smith was entitled to
choose any run on the division he
might care to take. He preferred. how-
ever, to remain on the Danbury branch
and his last service was performed on
the run to Dsnbury from death Nor-
walk Saturday evening. '

It is doubtful if any conductor on
the New York division or elsewhere on
the New Haven system had a cleaner
record than Mr. Smith. He was known
as one of the most careful men on the
road and in all his years of travel he
was never concerned In any serious so
cldeut; nor did he ever meet with any
of the personal mishaps so common
among railroad men.

"it is true that. l have retired from
railroad life." said Mr. Smith when a
reporter of The Dsnbury News saw
him at his home on Maple avenue yes-
terday. "Of course i regret the neces-
sity of leaving the road. 1 have been
in the railroad service so many year:
that it had gotten to be. second nature
for me to go to the station each morn
mg to take out. my train. 1 am getting
pretty well along in years and the
duties of the railroad conductor are be
coming more arduous with the con
stontly increasing limitless and the fro
uncut changes and improvements ii
the methods of doing railroad work. It
was however. with reluctance. that i
decided that l should leave the road.’

Mr. Smith is a native of Ridgeileld
where he wins born seventy years ago
He began railroading by team. as hi
loughin ly expressed it today. in tht
(all of e lAncoln campaign, along .t
;he commencement of the Civil War
he began to operate a state route be
tween Ridgefieid and liranchville. make
.ng connections with the trains on tht
Danbury and ‘Norwalk railroad. Tht
Ridgefleld branch had not been con
strucbed at that. time and the only
means that Ridgcfleld people had o.
getting to and from the railroad war
by team. Ridgefleld was already mun
or less of a summer resort and Mr
Smith carried many widely known New
York people between the Brancbvlllt
station and the terminal of his route i.
Ridgedeld in his stage;

Thirty-seven years ago he gave in
the stage route and took a position up
on the Danburr and Norwslk rsilroar.
as haggagemaater. There was one con-
ductor on the road then. .l. Alber.
Pulling, who retired from railroad ltfr
‘sevcral years ago. When the road fel
the need of an assistant conductor a
few months afterwards Mr. Smith was.
promoted to that position. Shortly sf
torwards the press of business neces-
sitated the appointment of another reg»
ular conductor and Mr. Smith lock a
regular run. There are few of mature
years who cannot remember “'Ed.
Smith and “Al." Pulling as the IN
conductors on the» Danbury and
Norwalk toad. John W. Bacon was
sucprlntendent of the road at the time
Mr. Smith was appointed to his con-
ductorshlp.

The trains made tworound trips be-
tween Dsnbury and South Norwalk in
those days. One train left In the morn-
ing sno returned In the afternoon and
the other left in the afternoon and re
turned in the evening. it took about
an hour and fifteen minutes to make
the trip in either direction.

The retirement of hlr. Smith is in
line with the policy of the New fork.
New Haven and Hartford road of pen-
sioning those of its employee who
have the record of long and faithful
duty in the service of the company and
who have reached that age where they
are entitled to rest and the enjoyment
of the comforts of life that active istl-
roadlng give-comparatively little up.

vtlla and Springfield, lass. foster
day's high wind packed the new into
hard drifts against which the on he
could make no headway. The sis lad
ass-onsets were provided with food
by the railroad authorities. and most
of them slept in the cars which were
kept comfortably warm. A snow plow
was sent out from Hartford this morn-
ing to the relief of the train. but before
it reached bore. the train crew and
section sans. assisted by some of the
passengers, had succeeded in shoVeling
a way through the big drifts so that the
train was enabled to proceed at 8:80.

A freight train was stalled all night
at Feeding Hills. Mass, six miles from
here, but that also got clear early thir-
mornlnl.

On the main line of the Central New
England. freight trains were delayed
from live to seven hours. Highways
throughout this section are blocked
with drifts six and seven feet high. The
snow is so tightly compacted that it
is possible to walk over the drifts in
many places.

HARTFORD. Feb. 2.-A relief train
and snow plow, in charge of Superior
tendent Hedden of the Central New
England Railroad, left here this morn-
ing to assist. the stalled trains on the
Tsrlffvllio branch line. At 10 o'clock
it was reported that all the drifts
which mused the blockade had been
cleared and that both the branch and
main lines were open.
