DROVE INTO A CROWD.
A Well- Known Norwalk Physician
Thrust-red an lnjudlclouu Car-
riage Driver.
Harry Kramer. the trick bicycle rid-
or gave two more clever exhibitions
yesterday afternoon and last evening
in Nor',1vnlk before large audiences.
While be was performing on the River
street side of the 110th Norwalk a
young man drove up with a horse and
carriage. but was unable to get through
the crowd. The driver then turned
'hls hol'se about and went down the.
street to get a good start.
Like a flying wedge he went jam-
ming into the crowd .I1ut the horse
stopped of his own accord beforr1 in
juring anyone. though It looked for a
moment as someone would be trampled
on.
The incident was brought to the at
tentlon of a well- known Norwalk phv
siclan, who was viewing the bicvcle ex»
hibition by the horse brushing against
him. The doctor deliberately walked
up to the carriage and administered a
thrashing‘ to the driver of the team,
much to the satisfaction of the spec-
tators. \

Saturday evening '
All who are acquainted with the Iru ,
movements to the road are aware oi'l
some of the cuts tlrut have been made.
in many places what has been done
and intended for improvements is far
from it. People who know stilrri'tltilrg
about road making any that the lur-
pr'oveurcnts to the road are not what
they should be. The money has been
spent in the wrong places. list it has
all been done under the direction of
Highway Courmisslonor MacDonald.
One of the places that has been cut
down cortsiderably is near Marvin's
corners. This cut is something over a
foot. 0n the west 11f Slate street a
road leads 11p a steep hill. Naturally
the ascent to this irill has been great-
ly changed. People who have occas-
ion to travel this road do not like the
change of grade and have asked the
sciectmcn what. can be done in the
matter. The selecturen have written
to the state highway commissioner
about the matter but Ire had not re-
plied 10 the letters and the selectruen
have decided to stop operations uutrl
lie is heard from.
An agreement has been arrived at
between the Connecticut Itailwuy and
Lighting Company, itllll the. selectmen
of the, town, whereby the trolley corn:
parry is to lower their tracks or raise
them as the grade of the ”1'“! road
may be, at their own expense. but the
fact of their doing this shall in no
way prejudice their legal rights 1 try
out later the question of whose Ila—
biiity it is whether the town or the
trolley company.
The interpretation of the statute 1111
tier which this work Is done has not
been definitely settled in our courtsund
while it Is possible that 1110 Superior
Court, might decide this question for
the town. it Is not the. policy of the
state. to throw this burden upon the
town anti the Supreme Court with
their wider latitude of interpretation
would undoubtedly decide I11 favor of
the rights of the town.

Went from Short Item-Ir to New Ca-

England town. She was looking for a
Mary It]. Wilkins village, she said, and
while New Canaan ‘1lidr1‘t quite agree.
with her muceptlon of such a place, it
canto very near It in many respects.
Miss Banks spent her mornings
while in New Canaan. writing stories
and magazine articles for the several
publications with which she is con-
uectcd. and her afternoons "in playing
with animals and children.“ as she
herself described her pastime. Slu-
cnjoyod life at the village very much
and made a number of ucqmrintnuces
there who do not yet know with what
:1 celebrity they splurt several pleasant
hours.
Miss llauks first sprang lrrto promi-
nence In England about ten years ago
when she wrote a reply to the attacks
on American women by Rudyard Kip-
ling. lier comments. though adverse
to the views the gm. est English poet
then held were read ai over the con—
tinent and the poet himself afterwards
1111111» to know and r-espcit her. and
sinre his visit to America has brought
some of his views to conform with
those. of Miss flanks.
She went to work in London as a
servant girl to study the. problem in
that city, and wrote a long series of
articles on her experiences for the
London ’i‘Irrres. Those. added to her
fume, and she was soon looked upon as
a prominent literary artist. Her writ—
lugs revealed a number (if things In-
struclive and Ilnkuowrr to the public at
large, and aided students of the ser-
vant girl problem in solving many
problems.
From the life of a servant alrl sirc
changed to a number of other voca-
tions for the expert: 11cc clrleily and for
material for the articles slrc was pre-
lliir'luu for muttazines, She worked as
a flower girl, swept London crossings
and engaged in other commonplace oc-
cupations. 'I‘Irr'n she posed rrs an Arn-

to court and into English society. and
from what she leaned in that win she
composeda few chapters which, when
published. revealed the doings of Lorr-
dorr cbaperoues and society women
who sold court introductions for fabu-
lous sums.
Her revelations produced more of a

Newspaper work kept her busy for
several years. She was engaged on
many big assignments. She was the
first woman to interview the late Li
Hung Chung when he arrived in Lon-
don for a newspaper and afterward, in
speaking about her to friends in Wash-
ington, the great Chinese statesman rev
marked that "the little American jour'.
rrallst” Ire met In London was one of
the brightest. women he ever saw. I}:
proved his admiration by pr'esenti

"The Autobiography of a NeWspaper
Woman" is the latest book she has
written and has become very popular
in England and on the continent, but.
is not quite so well known here. She
is herself the heroine and the book
has created quite a stir in literary cir-
cles everywhere.
Miss Banks came here last October
for her health. having had little rest
for a considerable period and finding
herself on the verge of nervous pron-
tration. She went to the balmy eli-
mate of California. There she sought
information on the servant girl prob-
