A special adjourned meeting of the
Board of Electrical Commissioners
was held last evening at 7 o'clock to
award the contracts for the engine
and electrical machinery for the en-
largement of the city's electric works
as authorized at tile special city meet-
ing of that Monday night. After the
proposals had been carefully compar-
ed and considered it was voted that
the contract for electrical equipment
be awarded to the Fort Wayne Elec-
tric Works. of Fort Wayne, lnd., anti
the contract for the motive power
equipment be awarded to the Ameri-
can Diesel Engine Company, of New
York, these proposals being the low-
est ones received fronl responsible
concerns in compliance with the con-
ditions‘ and requirements of the
board‘s exacting specifications.
The Westinghouse Electric & Manu-
facturing Company submittedn bid of
83,471, but this proposal did not in-
clude switch-boards, connections nor
the installation of same, as required
by the specifications,
"The following is a full list of the
proposals received:

For Motive Power Equipment.
The only proposal received ill ac-
cordance with the requirements of the
specification was from the American
Diesel Engine 00., Providence, it. 1.,
for an engine to operate entirely with
the lowest and cheapest grade of fuel
oil, under gllnranleee for highest em-
claim! and satisfaction secured by
heavy bonds. The price 'Sttbmllli‘d
.was 810,000. This proposal was ac
cepted,
The balance of the appropriation
remaining, about $2,000, will be ex-
panded as required to increase the
capacity of the electric distributing
system about the city and for other
necessary improvements coincident
with the work of enlargement as laid
out and provided for.
Work upon the contracts will begin
immediately so that the new apparatus
will be ill operation on or before Oc—
tober 2, if possible, all after that date
the loud upon the present generating
facilities will be greater than they
should be required to stand,
The entire work will be executed
llndcr the personal direction of the
three electrical commissioners. Messrs.
‘Joseph A. Volk. Col. beetle Smith and
Charles N. Smith, with General Su-
perintendent A. E. Winchester as their
supervising engineer in charge.
The. Diesel oil engine, though wall
known and extensively “slut in Eu.
rope. is quite new to this country, bllt
since its ildvcllt on this side it has
been greatly changed and improved
according to most modern American
methods and in consequence of its trll-
ly wonderful economy, whereby it is
enabled to produce electricity at about
the sonic (lost as water power, the de-
mand for it is so great that the fa-
cilities ofthe factory at Providence,
one of the largest engine factories in
the ttllltod States, are so taxed that
orders for the engines must be given
several months before the time of de-
livery. ln operation this engine does
not require an explosion as a propel-
ling fbrce, like the gas engine, but
gets its power directly from the ex-
pension of oil under great pressure
.while being consumed in its cylinders,
so that its action is Very similar to
that of a steam engine at very high
pressure. in appearance the engine
resemble» both the modern types of
gas and steam angina of the vertical
clue and is very massive. ,
The new chattrtcal generator will be
very similar to the big Fort Wayne
machine that is now in operation about
twenty-two hours daily. and which
was added in 1902 and has given most
excellent service ever since. so that
the new Fort Wayne generator of the
name make will not be like ll stranger
in the station. The engine and the

with each other by s single shaft and

“ ' BY KICK OF COLT
Animal Owned by City of South
Norwalk Became. Frisky
White iamesd’lckering was
Milking
Tho taxpayers have almost been al-
lowed to forget that the City of South
Norwalk is the owner of a fine colt,
the little fellow who last summer used
to follow the garbage wagon about
the city, because it's mother drew the
cart. For some time this demure-took—
illg animal has been pastured in a lot
on West street, absorbing ozone and
grass at a tremendous rate and grow-
ing daily. ill the lot to make it pleas.
ant alld compunlonable to the colt,
was also a cow. Cow and colt lived
amicably together.
Yesterday James Pickering. who is
a son of Harry S. Pickering, the ice
dealer. went into the lot to extract
tacteut fluid from the cow. He paid
no attention to the city colt, and the
animal for some reason or other kick-
ed him. ’t‘be animal's hoof struck
Plckeriug's legs and he went over, his
face coming ill contact with a stone
wall. ills nose was broken and he
was quite severely cut. Dr, J. C. Du—
mortier was summoned and repaired
the boy's injuries, ,
Tile concenslls of opinion is that as
the coli is ill charge of the board of
health. the county health officer should
be acquainted .wltb the facts, as it is
manifestly unhealthy to be ill the
same lot with the small bllt vivacious
animal.

Candidates Gather at the

The examination of 122 candidates
for admission to the high schools of
Norwalk commenced this morning and
will that throughout tomorrow at the
Franklin School in South Norwnlk. it
is eupcriniended by the principals of
the different schools and is being coll-
ductcd along the most modern lilies
of examinations, which will insure
absolute impartiality.
The idea is to give cacti participant
a number. which will be placed upon
the exnllllnatioll papers. The exam
ining committee which looks ovor the
papers does not know whose are the
numbers. The examiners, in order to
carry out the plan are not present at
the examination and have no way of
knowing which are the pupils. The
pupils’ llulllbcrs are supposed to be
kept. secret by them, so that when the
result of the examination is known
the number of those who have passed
will be read, which will save consid-
ernblo embarrassment.
'i‘hc examinatihu papers made out
by the board were delivered this morn-
ing in sealed packages to the school
and the teachers who are to conduct
till cxumlmliious are unaware of their
contents until they are distributed.
Teachers from the parochial school
were invited to be present.

social and lawn fete at the rectory on
the (troop. The scene was a most
brilliant one in every respect. Num-
erous electric arc lights Were distribut-
ed about the lawn and the spacious
rooms of the house were thrown open
for the occasion.
The price of admission varied with
a person's age. Each one was requir-
ed to present a little bug in which was
one cent or more for each year.
Moat of the festivities were confined
to the house, though one of the .most .
pleasing features. the gypsy encamp-
ment. was on the lawn. This was ill
charge of Miss Ada Betta. About 8
o'clock a wagon load of boys and girls,
dressed to represent nomads drove on
the lawn with a flourish and pitched
their camp. They sold popcorn and
clinlly and attached to their olltilt was
ll gypsy fortune teller, whose identity
has not been revealed. .
Another innovation one an automo-
bile trip. Several automobtltsts kind-
ly placed their machines at the dispos-
lll of the ladies and for the sum of five
cents drove people to the monument
ill East Norwalk and back. This
proved a very popular diversion,
inside, the house was a busy scene.
ilere ice cream and cake, Russian tea
and lemonade were served.
The serving of the Russian tea was
ill charge of Mrs. C. W. Burritt, who
had as assistants Miss Lina Hill and
Miss Helen St. John West.
Mrs. Louis Potter presided at the
lemonade booth and was assisted by
Miss Leila Potter, Miss Elizabeth Alls-
tiu and Miss Erwin.
Ladies of the Guild stated this mora-
illg that. a very comfortable. sum was
cleared by the venture.
