$t7and Costs
Judge Downs has handed down a
finding in the case of George Van Al-
styne against the Connecticut Railway
and Lighting Company brought in the
civil side of the town court. The find-
ing is for Mr. Van Alstyne to recover
ti and costs.
It will be recalled that this action
was for the running down of one of the
wagons of the Crescent Laundry owned
by Van Alstyne, while cross the Greg.
ory Point line into the alleyway at the
side of the laundry.
Judge Downs in his memorandum oi
.ecisiun says:
“If, as claimed on behalf of the de
fondant. Ward, while within about five
or seven feet of the truck and about
five or seven feet of the track am.
about ten feet. head of a car going at
the rate of ten miles per hour. had turn
ed abruptly on to the track, the cat
womu have struck the horse instead Of.
her rear end of the wagon.
"lf' Ward. before turning to cross
his truck. looked out of the wagon and
saw the car standing at or near the
_unctlon (which was something be-
tween eighty-five and one hundred and
twenty feet. away) he had a right to
cross the track, and in so doing to as-
sume that the ntotorman would not
start his car and rttn him down.
“The Collision was clearly the result
of negligence on the part of the motor-
man.
"The evidence does not show that the
splint which subsequently developed on
.he horse's ankle was the result of an
.niury received at the time of the col-
lision and the plaintiff should only re-
cover for the damage to the wagon.
“Judgment for the plaintiff for 81?
Mid costs.

son was the annual reception of the
South Norwalk High school, held last
evening in the human. which was
crowded to the doors with a gay throng
of dancers. Ever since these dances
have. been inaugurated. they have been
exceedingly popular and each one has
scored a social success which put in
the allude other social events of the
dancing season. The reception last
evening was pronounced to have been
the best of them all and certainly

time.
Everything was arranged for the
comfort and pleasure of the dancers
From a hunting draped enclosure in
the center of the hall. Wheeler and
Wilsons orchestra of Bridgeport dis-
coursed excellent music and many fa-
"nrable comments were heard upon it,
The only decoration which was neces
sary was the people. and the smart ev-
enlng‘ciothes of the men and the dain-
t ' colored gowns of the ladies made as
pretty a panorama as has ever been
seen in the armory. At one end of the
hall was the class motto "Carpe Diem"
emblazoned on the class colors. The
gallery was crowded with spectators
as were also many of the seats around
he sides of the, his; hall. The dance
program comprised some, 20 dances.
most of which were enthusiastically
encored‘even though the night was so
warm that still collars of the gentle-
men soon looked like limp dishrags.
There was an intermission after the
tenth dance and then one gained a
wood idea of the largenoss of the
crowd when it surged forward to the
refreshment booth which was under
the management of caterer Harrie A.
Smith who certainly proved himself a
nest master of his art for the wants
of the people were satisfied without
’lle usual great confusion incident to
"troll receptions. in an incredibly
short time all of the 1,500 persons pres-
