Bernard Tully

Owing to Mr Knnpp’s apparently sor-
ious condition while in Westport. a
message was despatchetl for the am-
bulancc. which was sent to the Wall
street. car barn The unfortunate con-
tltictor. however. had regained con-
sciousness. and decided that. he would
go home instead of allowing himself
to be taken to the Norwatk hospital.
Accordingly ho was taken to his real»
deuce in Ilelden avcuue, on it special
trolley car.

He is still very sore. as the result of
his lupuries and will probably be laid
up for route time The wounds, which
he sustained. bled profusely and be.
was quite a sorry sight. upon the uni-
vol of the physician The latter. how-
ever. soon made him quite. presentable.
A couple of stitches were taken in a
\1 mind on the top of his head and sev-
eral more 1:1 another at the side of the
head.

It was thought that tory likely his
skull had been t'rattured by the friziht-
in] fall and that it was not. seems lit-
tie short of miraculous.

Superintendent Everett F. Kyle call»
ed on Mr. Knapp this morning and
found him in pretty good shape, consid-
ering the severe experience.

strike his head. "Then I went to the
doctor's.” said Forrest. Mrs. Parker,
a lady of neurons proportions. clad in
a lilac waist, told practically the same
story.

After the lamp throwing Warn had
made an attempt to escape anti Officer
it‘t'nnk Stratton gave him a chase. He
succeeded in catching him and knock-
ing him down when near the Riverside
Mills. Warn’s wounds were dressed
at the Bridge Pharmacy and consisted
of quite a deep scalp wound on the
right side of his head. Warn could
give no reason for throwing the lamp.
except that he “didn‘t want Forrest
foolin' around no mo'. " Judge. 'l‘ny-
lar imposed a fine of $15 and costs.
Warn paid up and left.

Patti Popp. whose troubles were told
in The Sentinel last. week, was arrest
at last evening by Chief of Police

his house on the turnpike. Popp wan-
dered in about 10 o'clock in the. evening

weather. He was dripping wet. hav—
Ing walked from New Canaan without
an umbrella. He had been sleeping'
in the woods. but rain storms are not
good for such a style of camping out.
and he was literally driven Into the.
arms of the police by the elements.
The case. was continued until Wednes
day under bonds of 3150.

The next case was that‘of the lady
in the pink trimmed hat. Annie Do-
herty. or Morgan, who was arrested for
assault on John Silk. Silk was unable
to appear owing to severe stab wounds
which he had received in the Incas
which took place on Taylor avenue
about 10 oclock last. night. Silk re-
ceived a cut from his left eye down

somewhat damaged and he wan out on
