Private in Company F. Third

Infantry, Who Was Shot at

. the little Range, in. Westport

Avenue, Yesterday Afternoon.

Paralyzed Below the Shoul-
ders

 

 

The condition of Private Harry L.
Danton. of Company F, Connecticut
National Guard, who was shot during
the rifle practice of the command at
the Weatport avenue rifle range early
yesterday is very serious and grave
fears are entertained that he will not
recover. Dr. William J. Tracey, who
is in charge of the case, was rather
of the opinion. last night, that an op-

\ oration at just this time. while the pa-
tient is suffering from the shock, would
not be advisable. .

Mr. Denton‘s body it totally paralyz-
ed from just below the arm pita to the
lower extremities. He has not the
least sensation in his lower limbs and
this has been his condition since the
accident. Everything possible is be-
ing done for him at the Norwaik hos-
pital. Last evening he had much
pain. but he was perfectly conscious.
having retained his full senses from
the time the bullet entered his body.
He has the use of his arms, but this
is due to the fact that the bullet, when
it went through his spinal column.
penetrated below the point at which
they would be affected.

The injured young man is hearing
his ordeal with remarkable fortitude
and is hoping for the best. Much
sympathy is being expressed everyu
where for him.

Captain Charles L. Wing, the other
officers and all of the members of the
company, who had any connection with
the field day exercises, feel very keen-
ly the unfortunate occurrence. The
accident cast a deep gloom over the
rest of the exercises of the day, anu
caused a suspension ofvany further
maneuvres. Rifle prctlopf ceased im-
mediately after Mr. also was shot.
The men spent this remainder of the
afternoon about the range.

The accldentlwas in every way a
most peculiar one and,,the military
men gas hardly yet realise how it hap-
pone . Private Danton‘dh‘d Private
Ernest Kern ‘were a'ltendi g the 500-
yard target together. Prvate Kern
was surprised to see his comrade sudv
denly and without apparent reason fall.
Mr. Denton, himself, probably hard-
ly realized at first what had occurred.

YACHT ATLANTIC
ENDED RACE AT 9:15

Vessel Made Extraordinary
Time in Crossing the Ocean,
But Wind Died Out Before
Finish

LIZAREI, Eng, May 29.——The Amer-
ican schooner yacht Atlantic was ten
miles off the Lizard at 4:45 p. m., and
thirteen miles south of Penznnce. All
were wclii on board and she had a
splendid voyage. Her crew heartily
responded to the cheers of the passen-
gers and crew on board a passing
steamer.

The Atlantic passed Wolf Rock with
every stitch of sail sol Her spinnaker
was rigged to starboard and the Ame
erican enuigu was at her peak. Short-
ly afterwards the wind dropped and
the, Spinnaker was taken in.

Captain Barr was hailed by .the cor-
respondent's boat. He said the At-
lantic had made an average speed of
ten and a half knota‘ since leaving
Sandy Hook.

As the Atlantic keeled, her hull
showed rust. but there was no sigh
of seaweed.

The Atlantic was flying the inter-
national code letters “K: S. R, B."

The wind continued to lighten and
the yacht was unable to finish before
darkness set in. Shortly before the
Atlantic reached the mark the wind
fell almost to a calm and the tide
turned against her. Crowds of people
lined the cliffs. watching the yacht
cudeavoriug to make the mark with
all sails set.

Another yacht has been sighted
eighteen ,rmilea distant, the name of
which is unknown.

The Atlantic passed the line out-
side of Lizard lighthouse at 9:15 p.
"1,, when. a gun was fired from the
German cruiser Pfeii, the stakeboat,
which arrived early in the evening,
rockets being sent up from Lloyds'
signal station and foghorna blown at
the lighthouse.

The Atlantic proceeded for Cowee by
way of Southampton. intent on heat.-
ing the record.

After‘paasing Scilly islands the At-
lantic was bet-aimed and bad twelve
hours to drift. At the Lizard she met
a tremendous sea swell and for some
time drifted buci‘tw’hrd and forward.

Captain Barr and Wilson Marshall.
the owner of the Atlantic, agreed that
they had made a splendid passage.
without 11 single mishap, only exper-
iencing Dine strong gale. through which
the boat rode admirably,

The record sail for one day was 341
knots. which Mr. Marshall believes
bea‘t anything hitherto achievad. This
was made May 24. On May 25 the
yacht made 282 knots; on May 26. 179
knots; on May 27. 113 knots and on
May 28, 2l3 knots. The 'Atiantic
reached llishop Rock lighthouse
(southwest of the main group Of the
Scllly isles) May 29, having accom-
plished the passage to that point in
ii days. iii hours and 22 minutes, with
an average of 10 1-2 knots per hour.

resholf. of Bristol. il. l., the builder
of yachts and cup defenders. accom-
panied by members of his family and

yacht Eugenia. When shown the An-

Against State Humane Society.

Two veterinaries. Dr. G. M. Brun-
dagc. of Norwalk. and Dr, H. E. Bates.

chosen by the society agreed that the
animal‘s career of usefulness was at an
end. A citinen chosen by Stafford

mane Society, Staiford may bring a
civil suit. lie was convicted a few

Fred Jackson, Employed for a
Week by Airs. Phoebe Brown,
of Wilton, Drove Off with
Turnout, and was Arrested

by Sheriff hamper in South-
port 5

 

 

A farm hand, working under the
name of Fred Jackson, was arrested
at Southport. yesterday afternoon. by
Sheriff Kemper, of Westport. and is
now facing a charge of horse steal-
Ing. Jackson is being held" at West-
port. but will probably be taken be-
fore a Wilton justice of‘the peace and
bound over to the Superior Court.

Jackson was employed by Mrs.
,l’hoebe Brown, of Belden Hill, Wil.
ten. the owner of the horse. Jackson
aaunterad into Wilton about a week
ago and sutured work on the Brown
farm. All went well until yesterday
morning. who he drove off with a
valuable black orae and a new form
wagon.

Charles W. Horton. who owns a
place adjoining the Brown farm, was
much surprised to see Jackson on his
premises yesterday with the animal.
He interrogated Jackson on the sub-
ject and was told that the horse had
jumped over the fence. He thought it
peculiar that the farm hand did not
return to the Brown place and spread
an alarm.

Telephone messages were sent to
Stamford and Norwalk to be on the
lookout for the missing turnout but
Jackson avoided these places and
drove. through South Wilton down to
Weatport. Sheriff Kemper got on the
trail and succeeded in landing his
man. as told above. Dr. G. M, Brun-
dage. the Norwalk veterinary, passed
Jackson in South Wilton yesterday
morning. but. did not know at the
time that the authorities wanted the
driver.

News of the disappearance of the
outfit was received in Norwalk through
a telephone message sent to the Dean
and Banks stable. Mrs. Brown's hus-
band ls employed by C. H. Hnwxhurst.
of Nurwalk.

 

SAND EMBANKMENT AT BUTTS.

Companly D to Guard Against Accl.
dent. on Wednesday.

A number of the members of Com-
pany D will go to the Westport avenue
rifle range tomorrow and place an em
bankment of sand bags in front of the
targets, as an extra precaution for
the safety of the butt tenders, in view
of yesterday‘s deplorable accident to
Private H. L. Demon, of Company F.
it has not yet been decided whether
Company D will indulge in rifle prac-
tice during Wednesday's May Day ex-
ercises. The question will be decid-
ed by a vote of the company.

The injury to Private [Trenton has
provoked criticism among Norwalk
military men over the methods of the
state in relation to a rifle range for
the Norwalk companies. it is stated
that a sufficient amount of money was
not provided with which to properly
overhaul the old range. Because of the
expense that would be involved. the
state would not pay for a new range
selected in Wilton.

Complaint is made that bullets go
whining through fields adjacent to the
Weatpori avenue range. Superinten-
dent William H. Hendricks. of the
Town Farm, atated' yesterday after-
noon that durlng the morning. while
he was at work in the field. missiles
came singing through the air above
his head. First Selectman John DB-
vine says that bullets land about his
home. The new Krangorgenacn ri-
fles used by the companies carry a
distance of four miles.
