The voters of the East Norwalk Fire
“strictiyesterday evening voted with-
out a'dissentlng voice to ask the Legis-
latureto grant them power to build a
municipal electric lighting plant or to
purchase electric power from South I
Norwalk‘s municipal plant. A com-
mittee was appointed toapply to the
Legislature for . this , permission.
The meeting was called to order by
E. F. Smith, and James Hoyt was
chosen as chairman. The call was
read and accepted. There were twen-
tysix voters present.
John J. Walsh. a member of the
committee. which comprised besides
himself Albert Geib and H. C. Drake.
briefly outlined the work that the
committee had done. and read letters
from companies making gasolcne
street lamps. These would cost $15.86
per light per year from, dusk to dawn.
The lamps would cost $18.75, with iron
posts. Superintendent A. E. Winches-
ter had recommended this form of gas-
olene lamp, which is made In Cleve-
land.
The committee had thought it wise
to wait and see if it might become pos-
sible to build a municipal plant, or to
buy llght__ from the South Norwalk
municipal plant. At the present time
there has been a practical sale of the
Connecticut Railway and Lighting
Company to the New York, New Ha-
yen and Hartford Railroad Company.
which considers the lighting plants a
burden they do not want. They feel,
and justly. that they need not go out-
side their business as a railroad and
go Into stceet lighting.
Mr. Walsh did not think that they
would care to retain the Norwalk
lighting plant. He thought that if
the district should go to the legisla-
ture and get permission to enter into
municipalstreet lighting, or to buy
light from South Norwalk, there ‘w0uld
be no objection from the railroad peo-
p e. .
E If the report is true. he continued.
that the railroad does not desire the
lights,- they might‘mWosed of to

He thought thdt. the committee be-

that, such an effort be mice. He
thought that the district would know
when the legislature convenes, just
what can be done. "
He then put the following motion:
Resolved, That it be the sense of
the meeting that a. committee to be
appointed by the chairman be request-
ed to appear pefore the next session
of the state legislature and ask It to
give to the East Norwalk Fire District
the power to build a municipal plant
to provide electric power for street
lighting and other purposes. and also
to sell such power for private" use,
or the right to bliy electric power for
the aforesaid purposes from the city
of South Norwalk. or from any other
corporation.
Edward 1“. Smith staid that almost
every member of the district is in fa-
vor of lights and he wished a full and
free discussion of the matter.
Dr, F‘. R. Baker said that the com-
mittcc deserved a great deal of credit
for thc manner in which they had
handled the matter.
M. H, 'i‘ollcs said that when hc lived
in Rowan street he had established
three street lights IIid that he now has
five incandescent lights. which cost
him 325 per year. He thought that
it ouithl to be agreeable to everyone
to have the streets lighted. Ho com-
mcniled the work of the committee.
He said that he was In favor of the
motion, and would do all he could to
help it along.
Mr. Walsh said that he thought the
cost of presenting pitch a bill would
be about 818 or 820 for printing It, and
that 360 would be ample to pay all
the costs.
The motion wail amended uppropriat»
ing that amount.“ and upon ynlu was
passed.
The committee comprises A, A, (lull),
H. (I, Drake. John J. Walsh, Edward F.

miles
A member of matters were dispos-
ed of motion yesterday in the Cl-
vil Sup rIor Court at the short calen-
dar ses ion. Judge Milton A. Sbumway
presidli g. Among them was a ques
tion of pleading in a suit to recover
$58,000. .
Some time ago Theodore 8. Town-
dos, of Norwalk. died and Jacob M.
Layton, cashier of the City National
Bank was named as administrator. La-
ter he was removedand Mrs. Abbie S.
Lowndes. and others. who succeeded
him. made a demand for the balance ad
which it is claimed was due.
This suit followed against the bank
upon refubal. it Is claimed that
Mr. Layton invested part. of the money
on deposit in worthless notes and bills
belonging to the bank. The motion on
yesterday morning was to force the
Aston Indemnity Company. to prose
cute the ctlon against the bank, but
Judge Shumway refused to do this. He
would permit a motion to make the
company party defendant
There was some sharp passages be-
tween counsel. Attorney Webb of New

fendant, before the question was decldr
ed.
Counsel Compliment .
Those former partners State’s Attor-
ney Samuel h‘esscnden and Homer J.
Cummings of Stamford. had a little
tilt over three damage suits which the
latter has Institutcd against the Stam-
ford Street Railway Company In behalf
of clients. Decision was reserved. Mr,
Cummings wanted to amend his cum-
pl int. Mr. Fessonden said he could
no do it becausexof the law which
says that the company must be noti-
fied about a suit and about what the
plaintiff expected to prove within four
months. Mr Cummings thought that
after suit had been brought within the
four months. It was entirely In the
discretion of the court to allow amend-
ment. .
In the course of the discussion. Mr.
Cummings said he did not understand
the complicated question out to hlun
by Mr. Fossendeu. "I did not so;
pose a question could be framed In an ,
league that would puzzle you" said the“.
former partner. and Mr. Cummings
bowed and expressed his thanks for
the compliment.

The annual meeting of the South
Norwalk Fire Department was held at
the headquarters of Putnam Hose
Company, Franldln street, last night.
The attendance, owing to many other
attractions, and the lack of contest for
any of the important omces, was not
as large as usual.
The secretary, Augustus C, Knorr,
gave the summary of the fires, losses,
Insurance. etc. the reading of the de-
tailed list and the minutes having
been dispensed with on motion of M.
A. Ready.

spoke of the matter of entertaining
the State Fireman's Asoclation In Fair-
field County at. the next session In
1907. The county was the birthplace
of the state organization and he
thought the town should have the hon-
or of again entertaining it. He also
wanted to see D. W. Harford elected
secretary. There were twentyhfour
votes In Norwalk. and nineiy‘four in
the county, and he. believed the firemen
were entitled-to have something here,
and the secrethryship was all they ask.
E. W. Clark favored leaving the map
ter with the new board of engineers.
as they were conversant with the sub-
lect. He suggested having a parade
in connection with the convention here.

*ntuilcd a great amount of work and
the raising of a large amount of
money. and he also favored the mo-
‘ion that it should be left with the en-
gineers.
Chief Engineer Winchester said It
had been proposed to have the entire
‘own participate in the project, and
if this was done the work and the ex-
pense would be greatly lightened, Mr.
Winchester said the firemen had an
excellent candidate to work for, and
one who would be a. credit to the fire—
men of the state. and fulfill the duties
of secretary In a thorough manner.
The meeting voted to leave the ques-
tion with the board of engineers.
The matter of the election of offi-
cers then came up. and the secretary
was instructed to cast one ballot for
the present efficient board of engin-
eers. secretary and department phy.
slclan.
In reply to Elbirt W. Clark‘s word
of commendation, Chief Winchester
felt that he did not have sufficient
time to give to the office, although he
fell honored at the trust imposed in
him. He would not. feel slightcd if
some one else was selected.
First Assistant. Engineer Hogardus
said that Mr. Winchester was the man
for the place. and If he could not pos-
sibly attend to every lire he would be
excused.
The matter of taking the vote for
all the officers collectively was do.
cided favorably, but in view of the sec-
retary's being a candidate. It was aug-
gestdfi that one of the newspaper mcu

sketch of a building similar to one he
has recently erected In Oneida, N. I.
that met’with much flavor. The plan
would eliminate the gymnasium and
place the assembly halI‘In the third
story. ‘The rooms are similar in
those in plans already presented. The
proposed building would accommodate
certainly 400 pupils and probably
rooms could be added to the suggest
ed ,pluu, making accommodations for
600 pupils at the outset. A gymna-
sium can be built later. if desired. Mr.
Potter Is to send up the plans of the
Oneida building and. sketches of the

Program '
.The concert given last evening‘rby
the choir of the South Norwalk Con-
gregational Church maintained therap-
utation of the church for. its high-class
music. .
The new organist, Miss Lethe K.
Heisler, of Bridgeport, revealed herself
to be an artist of line ability in the
opening organ solo. ,
Miss Jensen's sweet soprano voice
was heard to good advantage in a
Venetian song. .
The other parts of the programby
Mr. Benedict. Mrs. Sims and hir.
Crowe were finely rendered.
Miss Littlejohn. It is needless to say.
captured her audience With her violin
solos. , - '
It was noticeable that while all of
the music was ‘of a high ‘o‘r‘d‘er' etc
was no attempt atatraining for 6 out.
The beauty of simplicity in many of
the selections was very attractive.
The second part of the program was
certainly unique and unusual. it‘waa
called Flora’s Holiday, and consisted of
nine old English melodies. The songs
and music were catchy without being
commonplace. The solos by the var-
Ious members at the quartette were
very sweet and attractive.
Among the selections rendered by
the entire quartettc the medley called
The Pedler was especially taking. Mr.
Benedict‘s baritone-solo, Sound Argu-
ment, was also unique.
An interesting quality of the singing
wials that it was clear and understand-
a e. -
The concert was arranged with the
assistance of the Whatsoever Circle of
King's Daughters of the church.
The ushers were Mrs. Louis S.
Beers, Mrs. James Paul. Mrs. Putnam,
Miss Elizabeth Belleck. Miss Elizabeth
Tolles, Miss Alida Tolles and Miss
Sara Paul.
