records. which began in 1739. He
also read. letters from former pastors
of the church who are still living and
from Mr. Horace D. Mather, of Hart»
ford, who is the historian of the fam-
ily. The hymns selected for the oc-
casion were. the oldest in the hymnal

Complaint Made to Mayor Glov-
er,ihis Noon, that Captain
Robert N. Morehcuse was
intoxicated while on Duty
Last Night

 

 

A big surprlsc was sprung this of
ternoou when Chief of Police Thomas
Bradley went before Mayor Charles L.
Glover, of Norwalk. and prefer-rod
charges against Captain Robert N.
Morehousc.

The chief charges Captain Morehousc
with "intoxication and disgraceful con-
duct while in uniform. while on duty

hours of 3:30 p. m. and 11 p. m." The
chicf expects to have him Immediately

Chief Bradley states that he has six

mailer will be brought to the atten-
tion of the city council tonight at the

It is claimed that the alleged offense
occurred bctwecn iii and if o'clock
last night. The chief alleges that

cit unduly. wavr-d his arms and took
pains to about good of ht to everybody.

liany Places Voting on Matter
of Biennial Elections-file-
pulicans Claim the Usual
Majority in Norwalk

Little town elections are being hold
all over the state. to-day, nearly all
the interest in the various voting dis-
tricts being local, The only question of
general Interest in the state. on which
the voters are expressing their opinion.
is the proposition of holding town elec-
tions bi-eunielly, instead of annually,
as u result of the constitutional
amendment voted last October. It is
th'ought that a lnrfie majority of the
towns today will vote to adopt the bi-
social system. Under the present gen-

(Ions, excepting in the towns of An-
oasis. Bridgeport. Derby, Hartford and
New Haven shall be held annually, on
the first Monday in October. the curl-
stituticu also providing for the holding
of an annual town meeting.

The fine weather today was the
means of causing a good sized vote
throughout the state and local issues
were fought with all the interest of
other elections. The question of license
or no license is one of the most Im-
portant of the local issues. but there
is generally little change of sentiment
in the towns throughout the state. The
town that is no license up to today
probably will be no license next year,
although this does not hold necessar-
Ily. as last year the no license vote
was cut down considerably In many
towns, ,

In New London the voters are cast-
ing the ballots for a mayor and elder.
men. Alderman Armstrong is the Re
publican candidate for mayor. and o
is running against Mayor Bryan
Malian. The election In that city prom-
cd to be one of the most keenly cou-
testcd in recent years.

City elections are also being held In
Norwaik and South Norwalk. which
with New landon comprise the only
cities in the state holding regular elcc.
tiona in South Norwalk the Itepub
licun nominee for mayor is Charles E.

es A. lockwood. in Norwalk 0. 8.
Hoyt has been named by the Republi-
cans and Wallace Dunn heads the De
mocrufic ticket. Full city tickets will
be elected In both places.

First District.

The officials at the old town house
on Mill Hill. the polling place of the
First District, are anticipating the
worst ballot counting job in the history
of the district. after the poll closes. As
one official expressed It, the voters
have been going to the booths with
whole handfuls of posters. Practically
cvcry point on the tlckcl is being as-
sullcd. Tho number of straight tic-
kets on either side will be very sniali.

0n the side hill. bcyond the chalk
line. the real battle is being fought.
All day the candidates' "workers" have
been busy. Workers for cit-Selectman
John Ilcvlno have been cutting off the
name of Jacob ll. Raymond and some-
times have been pasting the name of
Selectman Avlson over Mr. Raymond.
conceding that Mr. Aviuon would be
elected anyway.

Mr. Raymond has also been very ac-
tive in this district and has workers
out.

Frederick Iamdquist. candidate for
ll‘tighlfl'lil‘ of the Third District, also
has able lieutenants.

The vote being polled is a small one
and will probably run at least 500
short of last year. when 1,898 votes
were cast. ‘Up to 1 o'clock this after-
noon. 800 ballots had been deposited.

The officials at the polling place are:

Caught Firs Early Til-day

NEW YORK. Oct. 1. A volunteer
fire brigade of Columbia University
students. with the aid of a cool~head~
ed engineer and elevator boy, prevent-i
ed a serious panic and possible loss of
life, when lire early to-day started in
the seven-story F‘alrmont apartment
house. which is directly opposite Co-
lumbla University. Many of the uni-

 

their homes with the forty families
who occupy the building.

When the fire, which had been
smouldering in a second floor apart-
ment. burst through the doors at 5
o'clock and sent clouds of stifling
smoke through the balls, the elevator
boy and engineer aroused the occu-
pants of the upper floors and in a mo-
ment the corridors were filled with
scantily clad men and women. .

Singling out a dozen Columbia stu-
dents, thc engineer directed them to
guide the frightened tenants to the
street. In the meantime the engineer
had instructed the elevator boy to run
his car as rapidly as possible betweu
the upper floors first. and then work
gradually downward.

Fifteen times the elevator swept up
through the smoke-choked well and
each time came down filled to its ca-
pacity. On the fifteenth trip, on
which the last person was remOVed
from the fifth floor ., mes licked the
side of the car as i bet downward.
In the meantime the lower floors had
been cleared.

The fire department controlled the
blaze when the building had been dam-
aged to the extent of about 86.000.
