Largo Collection of Valuable
Silver and Wearing Apparel
Taken from the Residence
of Air. and Mrs. Oliver E.
Wood, in Ealrflelti Avenue
l
A daring daylight burglary took
place yesterday morning at the home
of Oliver E. Wood, 17 Falrfleld avenue.
«had considerable silverware was ta-
n.
. Yesterday, Mr. Weed being away at
business, Mrs. Weed left the house to
spend the day out. She went away
after looking up the house, telling
Mrs. Bodweil, who lives next ‘door, that
she would not be back until nightfall
or label in the afternoon.
About 10 o'clock Mrs. Bodwcll, who
is slightly neur sighted. saw a man
at .the door of the Weed residence.
She called to him saying:
“Are. you looking for Mrs. Weed?”
"Yes." replied the man, "i came to
get a bundle."
“She is away and will not be back
until night," answered Mrs. Bodwell,
and the man apparently took his do
nurture.
it is believed that the fellow merely
walked around the house to a sort of
storm door at the rear, where the re-
frigerator is kept. This extension has
no windows in it. andgoing inside he
bolted the door and, unlocking the
rear door with a common key, gained
entrance. .
A short time after this Mrs, Manuel
T. Hatch, who lives nearby and who
knew that Mrs. Weed was away, saw
a bottle of milk standing on the rear
porch and decided to set it in out of
the son. She found the storm door
looked and in all probability the bur-
giar was at work inside at the time.
She did not think it suspicious. as she
heard no noise inside the house.
_,Last evening, when Mr. and Mrs.
Weed returned home, they noticed,no-
thing out of the ordinary, but this
morning found t considerable sil-
werw re , its“ 8-

Balaitan Completely Burned
Out After Tartan liad Plun-
uable '
BAKU. Caucasia, Sept. 8.——Strest
fighting continued until late last night.
The consulates. banks and goveru~
ment buildings are guarded. by troops.
Balakhan was completely burned out
after the Tartars had plundered it of
everything valuable. Although shot
down in masses by the artillery, the
Tartars were not deterred, from their
work of wreckage and looting.
Fierce fighting and great slaughter
occurred at the Balakhan Hospital,
where a thousand Armenians and
workmen gathered. General Shirinkin
sent a detachment of artillery with
three guns to the scene and the com-
mander of the detachment summoned
the crowd to surrender. The latter re-
plied with volleys of stones and some
shots, which killed one‘of the gun-
hers. The commander of the troops
thereupon opened fire. The first dis-
charge of the three guns miscarried,
the shells falling into the see, but the
second discharge sent the shells crash-
ing into the hospital, where they ex-
ploded, killing an immense number of
men and wrecking the building. The
maddened crowd charged the guns and
captured them after deluging the gun-
acre with burning oil. Tile latter then
tied. Cossacks and infantry reinforce-
ments attempted to recapture the
abandoned guns, but were driven back
to the suflocating smoke.
UNTAMEO PATRICK FORD
VTERRORIZES PASSENGERS
Sailorirom Battleship Ohio Ran
Amuck on Gilt Edge Express
~—Landad Bound With Ropes
Patrick Ford is a sailor bold. and
he sails the briny deep, but when on
land, he's a tought flrsbrand. and he'd
rather fight than eat. Ford was a
pasdenger on the out Edge express
that comes into Bridgeport at 9:30 in
the evening, from Boston. The pass
engers on one of the coaches were
made aware that Ford was aboard. He
had a good jag aboard and he lurched,
as if tossed by the biliows, from one
side of the aisle to the other. .
He proclaimed that outside of a
ship New York was the only place to
live in. Ford wore a sailor hat and
the gill, letters told that he was one
of the crew of the battleship Ohio.
At Hartford he began to he scrappy.
He got into a fight with one passen-
ger, and the train crew took a hand
in subduing Patrick. The fight con
tinuel till the train reached Bridgi-
port. By that time Ford was on his
back and tied with ropes, and he had
a. bloody face. lt‘ord gave some good
rape in return. and broke a seal. anti a
window in the coach.
When the train arrived in Bridge
port, the wild sailor was handed over
to Dulcer lite Williams, night police.
man at the station. James Vallely.
chief of special detectives of the road,
told Williams not to take the ropes
off, for the prisoner would fight. Wil-
liams, who was not aware of Ford and
his propensities, took the ropes off his
prisoner and took him by the arm to
lead him to pollc headquarters.
When Ford ha his arms free he
went for the policemen. That is
where the sailor made a mistake. as
Patrolman Williams knows more
about scrapping in two minutes than
Ford known; in a month. Ford was
on his back. was jerked up. and Wil-
linms grabbed him by the collar and
pushed him into lilo patrol wagon.
“Why, that is l’ul Ford, the wild
sailor." said Sergeant Webb, as HGOII
as the prisoner was marched up to
him.
“Who is i’at Ford?" asked Pairoi~
man Williams.
The latter was informed that Ford
was not a stranger to the Bridgeport
police, that. he was arroslcd last
month, and it took eight men to on
ccrl. him to his cell.
”Yes, an' it'll take eight men to
put me there again."
"One man will do it this time," said
Patrolman Williams as hc made a
bound for the sailor, who was ready.
Five minutes later Ford was in thc
cell. shouting and cursing. He wanted
to get at Patrolman Williams. but
the iron barn prevented.
Williams preferred churgcs of
drunkenness and resistance and
breach of the peace against. him. The
railroad company will prefer the
charge of injury to properly.
Ford came to Bridgeport on August
iii. and made such a disiurhuncc that
it sent him to jail for a brief term.

Among the prominent physicians who

lame, and Many Prominent
Speakers
The conference which was held yes-
terday at. the new Rowayton Baptist
church. was largely attended. The plat-
form was beautifully decorated with
plants and flowers. Rev. Mr. James,
of Belle island conducted the exercis-
es. After the singing of several
hymns, the reading of the Scriptures
by Rev. Mr. McCoy. of Newark. and
prayer by Mr. Hartley and Mrs. Mc-
Mctloy, solos were sung by Mr. W. (J.
lcugci. of New York, and Mrs. Mc Coy.
The first speaker was Rev. Kenneth
McKenzie, of Westport. Ills subject
was “How to win souls“ and he chose
two texts. one from the Book of Pro-
verbs. “He That Winneth Souls is
Wise," and Daniel 12:3, “And They
That he Wise Shall Shine as The
Brightest of the Firmumeut, and They
That Turnlliany to Righteousness as
the Stars Forever and Ever." He said
the first requisite for a soul winner.
is to have positive convictions; we
must believe God's word that men
without Christ are lost; that the only
way of salvation is in accepting Him
as a personal Savior. An East indinn,
an intelligent man, but a heathen, was
asked by a Rector why he would not
become a christaln. His answer was.
if he became one, he would want to
he a consistent one. and be obedient
to the teachings of Jesus and pointed
out to the Rector many ways in
which he was not so and that made
the heathen man doubt his sincerity.
The soul winner must also study
points of contact: improve opportuni-
ties; preach the word. Quietly leav-
ing a tract in a railroad car has many
times been the means of winning a
soul for God. One of the best oppor-
tunities is in letter writing, a chris—
tlan should never write letters, with.
out at least expressing praise for the
loving kindness of our Heavenly b‘a~
ther, or some appropriate vmu'se from
God‘s Word. The third requisite for
one who would be a soul winner is
prayer. A great dcal can in- done by
prayer. where we cannot roach pmple.
Mr. Moody, at one time, when weary.
took a trip to Ireland and laudcd onc
Saturday afternoon. He heard church
bells and wcui into n prnycr meeting .
and sat in the‘back sent. The pastor
came to him and said "The Lord scnt
you here to breach tomorrow morn-
ing." Mr, Moody said, “If you think
so, i will preach.“ and he did. He
found the pmple icy cold and seemed
to make no impression. but one woman
who heard him went home and told ~
her sister who was bed-ridden that
Mr. Moody hail preached that morning.
She had been praying for some time
that God would send Mr, Moody there, .
and praised God that He had answered
