I. Rider. Editor Sentinel: law In your valu- able paper an article referring to the purchase of deck property. Had the city all the shore trout that properly belongs to the public we would have plenty. The entire: front was govern- ment land to mean high water ; and no private party could gIVe a good title from this out to the channel. Even now only to the pier line, since the establishment of it by the govern- ment. This I have from the overn mont ofllcials. Many years a to y was kept up from Water street at Liberty Point. over to Stamford path, leading to Fairfleld. This tract was leased af- ter 1827 by the town to private parties, who quit claimed it to others, and this has been kept going on. The old Wat or street used to pass under the pres- ent Norwslk iron Works. This was changed as far as Marshall street to twenty-six feet. In width to its present location. bllt did not change Marshall street to wipe ollt the public. dock or street. Lately another piece has been enclosed north of the Iron Works that belongs to the city. The south side of Marshall street runs to within about three. feet of the north end of the old Iron Works. Many of the piers have been crowded out In places until they are beyond the center lllrc of the old channel. Another public pier was just south of Ferrls‘ coal office. All north of the old l’cck planing mill was open for pllbllc use. When the planing mill was built Mr Day al lowed It to be erected towards his land to keep it out of the river with the special statement; should the street require nlore width in the future It should be moved easterly on the mud flats so as to give 45 feet from the westerly side of the. road. This con- stant appropriating of public land has long been going on. Highways are en- croached on In many places in our city and town; some are even enclosed. improvement I think it unjust to allow our public land or other property to be appropriated by private parties and the public be compelled to purchase other at high price to fill its place. While the government has full con. irol to high water the states were al- lowed jurisdiction by the government to the lands lying between high and low water, and not private owners. As before stated after the government os- lnslde of said lines. 1 speak of these matters for the prrbllc good and for no self-interest. . Yours respectfully, ... W. B. RIDER, Surveyor.

August 8. ~Elale Ooilsrt, a little Danish girl of five years. Is in the custody of the Federal authorities hero. Will Jensen and his wife Mary Jensen also are in custody. charged with having kidnap the child In Denmark. , While it is stated i cats are wealthy and at a ransom of [200.000 has been demanded for her return to Denrnark,.the Jensens insist that they aro ill rightful possession of the little girl. The case will be de cided before U S Commissioner ll‘oote tomorrow For nrore than two years, the Danish ‘ government has been searching for the homes. and detectives in every large city of the United States have been looking for them. George Bech, acting counsel in New York for the Danish government. has arrived from the east, armed with ex- tradition papers and the correspon- dence between the two governments. The story told by the Danish ag- cnts is that M. Gellert. father of the child. is one of the richest men of Don- mark, and makes his hours upon a magnificent estate at Friderica. In 1902 he had one daughter, Elsie, who was three years old. He, had a valet of the name of Jensen, and there also was In the family a young woman nurse. Mrs, (lellert was ill and tile little girl was almost entirely in the charge of the nurse. The valet and nurse disappeared, II is said. taking the child with them. No clue. could be obtained to their whereabouts at first bllt later it was found all had landed in New York. The Danish authorities stirred up the American State Depart- ment. and for the last two years the search has continued without intermis- slon. The story as told by the Jenscns is that they were prosperous trades peo- ple in Denmark. The child, they say, practically was deserted by her par eats. and out of pity for the little one tllcy volunteered to care for her. There was no adoption. They took her. they say, with the mother's con- sent. Two years ago they came to America and brought the. child with them. They deny first they have liv- ed under assumed names. as the Dan- ish officers charge, or that they have made demands for money. WAR AGAINST CONSUMPTION.

The transportation companies re- port less than the average traffic, while reports from various resorts in- dlcated hotels poorly filled and many cottages empty. it is believed that the situation ls due to the fact that many people have lost through the de oline in security values in connectiqr with a restricted business year. and that many of the working classes have suffered through lack of employment, ,this being especially true in the mill , per cent debenture bonds which are total issue of 32.000. 000 of the new 4' cm“ being put out by the latter company, has already been more than onehalf subscribed for by New Haveners and others.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa., August 3.— Successful experiments in the menu facture of copper blank cents stamped at. the United States mint in this city, will render unnecessary the reduction ill the lili‘t‘a‘ which it is expected Would go Into effect there in September. With this innovation. the print will have sufficient work to emplo, all of its six hundred workers with the exception of fifty women throughout the year. Here- tofore the government has bought its supply of blanks from private con. cerns. The mint here is the only one in the United States which makes cents and rrickcls. and there will be a record- brenking production of those coins frorn September to Decetllber. The mint will devote itself exclusively to this coinage and as a result $25,000.- 000 will be turned out each month. This has been a record-making year at the mint. in one month more gold was coined than in any other similar time. Since January $117,000,000 in gold has been turned out. most of which has been forwarded to sub. treasuries. in the. vaults at the pres- ent time are 100.000.000 sliver dollars held as collateral for silver certifi- cates. .— FOUND DEAD UNDER HORSE.
