Discovered on fire in lwo Places Early Sunday A bold attempt at arson was made in South Norwalk early yesterday morning. but very fortunately for the occupants of the house, the fire, which was burning in too different places. was discovered in time to prevent in« jury to anyone, although the damage to the building will be considerable. Michael Orris and family occupy the house at No. 8 Hoyt street, which is owned by John Lonchak, who conducts the saloon at No. 23 Day strect. With the Orrla family lives a boarder. The latter was awakened Just at daybreak, Sunday, and he surmised that some- thing was wrong. He aroused a son of Mr. and Mrs. Orris, and together the young men went down stairs. They found that the house was on fire in two places. The most serious blaze was about the back porch. A baby carriage had been left out in the back yard all night. This had contained a piece of black dress goods, pillow and pillow case, etc., and these articles had been removed, and with a large piece of wood. and’other inflammable mater- ial. had been piled on the back stoop and set on fire. The fiames bud eat- en their way into the kitchen, and burned quite. a large hole in the floor. The other fire was at the front en- trabce to the house. There is quitc a space under the front door, and through this some paper and rags had been forced. and a match applied. The door was on fire on both outside and inside. The young men hastily aroused the other people in the house, and by hard work succeeded in extin- guishing the flames. The house as well as the contents were insurod. Mr. Orris was pinn- ning to move his family out ncxt week, and he is at il ions to tinder- stand why anyone. should set fire to the house anti run the risk of cremating himself and relatives. .He has not an enemy in the world that he is aware of, and in order to apprehend the gull- ty party. if such a thing: is possible. he reported thc matter to the South Norwalk police. who are making an investigation, and may call on the, state fire marshal's office to come here and take hold of the matter. w—m RELIEF CORPS CONVENTION.

Conn., May 9.——A house party of Torrington _and Winsted young people came to a sudden end this morning by the drowning of Miss Lena Blackman. of Torrington. one of the members of the party. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Blackman. The accident happened in Highland lake, and has caused great sorrow among the islands of Miss Biackman in this section of the state. Miss Blackman was with Guy Beecher. of Torrington. at the time of the accident, and since it occurred he has been out of his head and was ink- on this afternooa to his home in Ton .rlngto’n under this care of a pby a. Miss Blackman and he were joy- ing a paddle in a canoe about 8 o 'clock this morning when a sudden squall came up. Beecher suggested that they put in to shore and walk to the cot- tage, where they were staying, but Miss Blackman said she thought they could reach there safely. and so Beecher headed for the landing, not more than 200 feet. away. After going a few feet. the frail craft capsized within sight of other members of the party on shore. An attempt. was made to launch a boat by some. of the gentlemen of the party, but the waves were running. very high. making it impossible for them to do so. Beecher, who is a good swimmer, succeeded in holding onto the canoe and for a time kept Miss Blackman's head above the water. Twice he put her almost lifeless body on the bot— tom of the overturned canoe, when it would slip off, but after the second time. Miss Blackman. who was then unable to help herself, sank in 20 feet of water. Beecher clung to the boat and drifted with it to the shore, and soon after he became delirious and was put in charge of a physician. He was re- ported in that condition tonight. As soon as the wind allowed, grap pllng irons were used from steam launches, and after five hours‘ search for the body it. was brought to the surface and taken to the shore. Some of the friends of the drowned young woman became hysterical. one of them fainting when she saw her friend go down In the lake. She is Miss Elma Drake. of Drakeville, a life long friend of Miss Biackman. Miss Drake was a member of the heuse party as a guest of Miss Blackman. and tonight she was reported in an unconscious condition. -—5 lbs. good sweet butter $1.00.

At— I,witii a review of the iespondents. C sci on both sides have submitted briefs covering the is- sues and testimonY. Mid the oral argu- ments made today were supplementary. Mr. Sperry said that the evidence had been reduced to a final fact and he would like to have the committee to agree to it that it. was the custom of the governor to recognize a legislative day and not a calendar day under the constitution. He said that the ques- tion had never't’iriocisfiicevthe adoption of the present constitution, Prior to 1855 the legislature generally sat every week day. From 1868 it was possible for the question to have arisen. 1 10m 1868 to 1582 it has not been possible to determine accurately when bills were transmitted to the governor. and the date of his action in regard to them. Mr. Sperry said that it was the practice of .the governor to take more than three calendar days, and often three legislative days for action on bills or resolutions. He .asked the committee therefore to find for the respondents in the matter. in reviewing the testi- mony he said that in the last twenty- one years twenty-five vetoes have been made by five governors, and of that number eight vetoes were sent In after three calendar days, thereby recogniz— ing legislative days as those intended by the constitution. Mr, Sperry alluded to the testimony of Clerk Root, which was to the effect that governors under- stood that they had a right to hold bills three legislative days. The practice in the ofilce of the Secretary of States has been. Mr. Sperry said. to permit of the expiration of three legislative days before certifying that a bill had become a law without the signature of the governor. TROLLEY CASE ON TRIAL.

Saturday afternoon, Edwin Brush, of Bayview avenue, decided to celebrate the first Saturday afternoon off from his employment at the Norwalk iron Works, and he took James Evenden, George E. Vredenburgh and P. E. Wardwell out for a sail in his launch Gloria. They intended to go down the harbor fishing. When they had pro- ceeded some distance it was discovered that one of the fenders was missing, and they decided to cruise back along the shores to see if they could recover the fender. They were just above the Danbury dock, when Mr. Brush noticed a peculiar looking object in me water. He thought that it looked like the body of a man floating face downward. The others thought it was nothing bill it gunny stick or something of that ltind. Mr. Brush directed the course of the launch toward it. and discovered that his guess was right. They made fast a rope to one leg of the corpse anti towed it to the wharf of the Norwalk iron Works, where it was tied. Mr. :irush thcn notified Medical Examiner Huntington, who reached the scene some time afterward. lie stated that ‘luptain iletts. of the City of Norwalk, had telephoned to him that he had sighted the body of a man floating in the river. it was further learned that a boy named \yillie Olrlock, had soon the body floating tip the river. The remains were at that time un- identified und were in such a condition from decomposition and eaten by fish that it was believed that it would be impossible to identify the body. Medical Examiner Huntington gave orders that Undertaker D. W. Raymond ‘eiuove lIlL‘ body. This was done and a search was made for marks of liieutlt‘i cation. in the pockets of the clothing was found a book of the lronmouiders' Union, of this city, containing the name of James C. Fitzgibbons. Core making was his particular branch OI the trade. Friends of l’iizgibbonk were then sent for, and he was positively identified by a Scar on his chin and by a ring on one of his fingers. In one of his pockets was a letter written by it friend in Bridgeport. This made the identification complete. and the re mains were taken to Norwalk and his relatives notified of the find which had been made. Fitzgibbons had for some time been of a wandering disposition, and had not been home in a year, having work- ed in Hartford and Newburgh, N. 31.. during the past winter. When he left there is not known, neither is it known how long he had been in the water. The appearance of the remains would indi- cate that it might have been there for weeks or months. This part of the Iciase is being investigated by the po- ce. Medical Examiner Huntington view- ed the remains, and found that death was caused by drowning. There were no marks on the body which would in- dicate any other cause of death. I'rob- ably the case will remain shrouded in mystery and the details may never be known. Deceased was twenty-eight years of age. He leaves a mother, two brothers. John and William Fitzgibbons, and three sisters. Miss Anna M. Fitzgih- boas, Mrs. Thomas Skidd and Mrs. Nora Brady. The deceased carried $500 life insurance in the John Hancock Company. The funeral was held this afternoon at'3 o'clock, at St. Mary's Cemetery. OBITUARY RECORD. FREDERICK CASTLE.
