Award Contract for Cottage
on South West Point, Smith’s
Island
Eli-Mayor .Iohn .l. (‘avanugln dud
Counsellor .lohti J. Walslt are prepur‘
lng to enjoy solid comfort this summer
during the time they will be able to
get. away from tlte sun scorched bust-
lless sections of The Norwnlks.
South Norwulk's t’ortttt-r chief execu.
tive and the well-known Norwalk at-
torney own a beautiful portion of
South West Point on Smith Island,
having purchased the ground some
thing a year ago, and Mr. Cavanagh
has awarded the contract to erect a
cozy stone bunglelow at the Point to
the firm of Waldron and Riordan, the
builders.
While the. bttildiug will truly be on-
by. this does not mean that it will be
Ismail. It will be a substantial story
and one-half structure and will be of
very ample and comfortable propor-
tions, so that if they desire, they can
spend any length of tinte there without
the least inconvenience. Both of these
gentlemen are excellent entertainers,
as all wlto know them reollzc. lin-
doubtedly many friends will partici-
pate in the. luxuries of tlto new butt-
galow this summer. .
Preparations for starting the work
of erecting the building have been gt»
ing on for some time, though active
work will not begin until April lst.
This will give plenty of time. however.
to complete the house for the coming
season, as the work will be pushed
right along.
The pretty edifice will occupy n cout-
mending position, overlooking a large
expanse of Long Island Sound, and
will be so situated as to catch all of
the cooling zephyl's 0f- the hot months.
The facilities. too. will be of the best,
for when the weather is such as to
make landing from the outside shore,
uncomfortable. the. place can easily be
attained by landing on the opposite
side. of the Island. where the waters
are invariably more placid.
Messrs. Cavanngh and Walsh have
been very favorably impressed with
the. advantages of the property they
purchased for a long time and are an-
ticipating with pleasure the culmina-
tion of their idea.
To get the material for the building
to tile island will be a task in itself,
but they are prepared for the. exigen-
cies of transportation. Recently they
purchased the sturdy Runckenunceti.
No. I. originally owned by Eben Hill.
of the Norwulk Iron Works, from
Thomas Hendricks The craft is a
.‘uaunch and able one and is admirably
adapted for this work citt out for it.

iNouANIETRANCE
. FIFTEEII DAYS DEAD
.—._..._...
Was Found with Her Mother in
an Unconscious Condition—-
‘Latter Failing
NEW YORK, March 24,—0ne of the
most remarkable cases in the exper-
ience of the doctors of the Presbyter—
Iun Hospital in this city ended today
In the death of Miss Luella liuostls.
of Mt. Vernon. who. with her mother.
Mrs. James ll. Huestis, has been in a
trance for 15 days prior to her death.
More titan two weeks ago both of the
women were found unconscious in the
home of Henry W. lielt‘er. a lawyer
of this city. who was acting as their
counsel. anti on whom they had called
for legal advice. They were. supposed
to have. been asphyxiated by gas. Net—
ther had since. recovered conscious-
ness and physicians and hynotists
were puzzled by their unaccountable
coma.
Miss Hucstis was an attractive
young woman aged 22 years . Lack of
nourishment was the. principal cause
of her death, as it had been impossible
to give her food except in liquid fortti
and through a tube. When site began
to show signs of failing vitality stim‘
ulants and oxygen were administered
buts he died with very slight change
in her appearance.
A singular fact is that the young
woman‘s mother. who laid iii an ad.
joining room, began to show signs of
the approach of death. soon aft or the
death of her daughter. Like her
daughter, the mother also is greatly
emaciated and the physicians at the
hospital say that her low vitality is
due practically to starvation. Although
she weighed 200 pounds when brought.
to the hospital, she weighs only tilt)
pounds today. Until yesterday it hati
been expected that both women would
eventually be aroused front their coma.
Superintendent Fisher. of the Press
byterian Hospital, said today that it
was the most remarkable case he had
treated. “We are. at a loss to account
for it." he said. "The case of the mo-
ther and daughter has attracted the at-
tention of men of St‘it'llt‘O all over the
country. ltut no theory has been ad
vanced that has been of any service
to us."
One specialist in bypnotlsm and
psychology who investigated the case
has made public his conclusion that
the two women had unconsciously
hypnotized each other and amazes
asphyxiation had nothing to do with
the ease. lie explained that he had
himself been hypnotized while hyuo‘
lining a patient and ball only been
awakened by the arousing of the sub-
ject. Only fit that mattncr did be ex-
pect either of the two women to revive.
In the event of the death oi tine of the
women he expected that the other
would either be released front the,
trance or would die soon after,

Greenwich Matt was Nominated
for Judge of The Common
Pleas Court by Governor
Roberts, Against the Wishes
of a Majority of Attorneys of
' of the County—Letter Writ-
ten by Judge Light to Execu-
tive. Last Week. and the Ac-
knowledgment Made Today
Governor Roberts yesterday sent to
the Senate the nomination of James
S. Walsh, of Greenwich, to be judge
of the criminal common pleas court. of
It‘airtield county, for a. term of four
years. This ends one of the moat no-
table contests for a judicial position
that has been before the legislature
this year. .
The nomination of Mr. Walsh is to
succeed Judge John 11. Light, of South
Norwalk, who has held the position for
four years. The peculiar feature of
this case is. according to reports that
ilovcruor Robcris' individual prefer-
ences atid dislikes took part. iii the
matter.
it is said that Governor Roberts pos~
itively declined to reappoint Judge
Light despite the fact, that he find at-
most unanimous support of the bar of
i“llil‘ii(‘iii cottiily.
About a month ago. the committee.
of the bar. headed by Judge Robert
It}. lit-Forest, of Bridgeport. visited the
governor anti laid before him a peli-
tion signed by nearly every lawyer in
l4‘uii'lleld county. asking for the reap-
poinintent of Judge Light.
The committee itlso urged the gov-
ernor personally to make the appoint-
ittcul tilt the ground of fitness and
qualification representing to the gov-
ernor that Judge Light had filled the
position satisfactorily during his time
of term of foitr years. The governor
at that time is said to have represent-
ed to the committee that he might.
consider Judge Light's chances favor-
ably.
The Governor's Revenge.
it appears front the start accord.
ing to the report, that the governor
was opposed to Judge Light. The
reasons given are that Judge Light
took an active part in opposition to
the governot"s nomination. It will
be recalled that Judge Light wrote a
letter in which be favored the hour
ination of Judge (liotivelaud for gov-
ernor on the Republcuu ticket and it
seems that Governor Roberts cannot
forget this.
The. nomination of Mr. Wulsb‘ is
ttot favorably received by the major-
ity of the It‘afrfield county represen-
tatives. It. Is considered a gross lm~
propriety to nominate for a judicial
position an officer In the present state
government. Attorney Walsh now
holding the position of state treasur-
er.
Feuenden Men Sore.
Whether or not there will be a
light over the nomination before the
judiciary committee and whether or
not the assembly will take action is
ttoi yet decided upon. It is under.
stood. however, tlittt tho Feast-inlet)
tueu fend very sore over the gover-
nor‘s action. They claim that he has
gone otit of his way to throw down
an active lt‘msendon worker although
they admit that the governor had also
uninitiated an active Fessendcn man
tor the position.
Moot Peculiar.
The governor's course. In regard to
the nomination according to all re»
ports has been most pocultari it In
said that he offered the position to
several other lawyers to Fltil‘iit'lti
county but they dottlluotl It as they
were favorable to the nomination of
Judge Light.
Judge Light‘s friends say that the
governor twice agreed to appoint their
candidate, but changed his mind upon
hearing front some other source.

(iliNSHil PASS, Manchurla, March
24.~'l‘he women and children are re
ported to be leaving liarbln and the
business houses are closing. The sta-
tionary hospitals are being moved back

vostok changing his base for that pur-
pose to (lensan.
While the Manchurian railway is
employed to supply the main army in
its advance on Harbin the Japanese

victories achieved.

army show peculiar adaptabillttes to
conform with the new conditions and
accommodate themselves to the wishes
and intentions of the commander In
