Thrhe Players of New Game
Dolled ‘ifldsos" Fined $7

Proprietor is Hold for Trial
This Afternoon
The reform ..ve has at last surged
over the such it game of crap, policy
gigs are a thing of the past. and even
"five up" at a nickel a corner Is not
permissible. The interesting game of
"noses," however, is not barred by
law.
The purifying agencies of the police
invaded the rooms of Charles Youngs.
a colored man who lives over the office
of Cole's Express, on the bridge, yester-
day, and when Chief Vollmer and his
men arrived they found Bill Brown.
Bill Jones and Joe Wilson engaged in
an exciting game of "live up," which
is more or less familiar to most peo-
ple. being similar in nature to the
some known as “seven up.“
When the police entered the rooms
there was fifteen cents in the “kitty."
and Wilson had just won a pot of five
cents, the game being in its infancy.
‘ Upon sight of the police there seem-
ed to be considerable embarrassment,
which was renewed this morning when
the culprits were called upon to pay
their lines.
Charles Youngs, who is the proprle
tor of the place, smilingly assured the
police that the boys were only playing
for. the beer, and then realizing that
this could not be on a Sunday, changed
his story to "playing for cigars.”
This did not 80 and the four were
taken to Havlland street. This morn-
ing it came out that there had been
a number of complaints recently
against the place, and the large num
ber of colored men who were in court
this morning to witness the trial only
needed a. little tropical foliage to lead
the spectator to imagine he was south
of the Maison and Dixon line.
Those present took the greatest in
terest in the trial and when one of
the prisoners unthinkly said that the

Miss Daisy Diem-ow Taken Soprano

The services of the South Norwalk
Baptist Church were very well attend-
ed yesterday. The sermon on lllml-
lotions of the Church brought out three
points. first. a lack of intelligent cou-
ceptlon of our religion: second we are
not normal in our religious brains;
third, a lack of neurones to Christ
The Bible school and B, Y. P. U.
were both instructive and helpful.
The evening sermon was the fourth
in the series, nght Scenes In the Life

Project Originated Wllh Repre-
sentaiive-eieol William Low,
and Not With Attorneys, the
Low Committee Claims'
The campaign committee of Repre-
sentative-elect William M. Low deny
strenuously an assertion that the idea
Of a bill to curb the power of the se-
leetm‘en in spending the town's money
originated with Attorneys John H.
Light and John J. Walsh.
John J. Hanlon, speaking for Mr.
Dow's committee, says that curbing the
power of the selectmen was the first
and most important plank in the plat-
form on which their candidate was
elected. and therefore the present un-
dertaking, though late, is a flattering
endorsement of the representative
elect. Mr. Hanlon slates further that
Mr. how has a bill. which he will pre-
sent to the legislature, in preparation,
and this will be made public in a
short time.
Mr, Low’s bill will not conform en-
tirely to the ideas of the originators
of the present petition to the select-
men, as he believes that nine men, as
has been suggested, is too large a num-
ber to have on a board of estimate and
taxation. because their services will
mean much added expense to the town,
in a letter to the editor of The
Sentinel, Mr. Hanlon, speaking for
Representative how's , committee.
says:
The Editor of The Sentinel:
A petition to the selecimen, signed
by eminent citizens, published in The
Sentinel of last Friday, officially.
brings to their attention the first and
most important plank in Mr. Low's
platform—that on which he was elect-
ed—curbing thoI power of the select
men to spend money without limit be-
fore the appropriations are made.
This is a high tribute to Mr. Low
who pushed the campaign.
Mr. Low has been at work on his
duie it early in the session Reading
the .Norwalk petition it is a very flat-
ering endorsement of his principles.
Not often has a new legislator receiv-
ed in advance such an endorsement.
all the more gratifying because it is
all parties.
The seleclmen bake too much power
and exercise It too carelessly. it ought
to be curbed. The special feature how
best to do this. calls for some discus-
sion. and We do not agree with the
gentlemen. who claimed to have orig-
inated the scheme. that their way is
the best. The committee was under
the impression that this matter orig-
inated with them. and it was an agree
able surprise to learn of the earnest
efforts of our fr;lends mentioned, and.
although somewhat late, of their co-
)peratlon with us
To create a new board of nine men,
as they suggest, elected for
years. three to go out each year, to
tell the three solecimeu how to spend
the money. and how much. is objec-
tionable, because if they are not satis-
factory you cannot turn them out at
the next election. six of them remain-
ing. and in another year the thing is
forgotten. We have officers enough al-
ready. and adding nine more would on-
ly complicate the question. We have
prepared a simple bill, prescribing that
no expenditure shall be made in ad-
vance of a specific appropriation, and
none beyond the appropriation. except
in (50893 of sudden emergency. endan-
gering the public interests, as where
a road is suddenly made dangerous. or
a bridge swept away, would do the
luminous more simply and better.
The expenditure, too, ought to be
made by contract. on advertisements
for bids. whenever this procedure ap-
plies. Creating morn offices may have
originated with the gentlemen refor-
red to. Doing the thing itself, with
the officers we already have. originated
with Mr. Low and the committee.
Respectfully.

Vatican Seems Determined to
Test Strength of Party of
Reaction in an Effort to
Dverihrow the Republic
PARIS, Dec. l20.-—The press today
unanimously recognizes the extreme
gravity of the religious issue pre-
cipitated by the pope's intraslgeant at
titude and many papers predict a veri-
table religious warfare. The govern
ment‘s calculations have clearly been
upsetand new legislative authority
may be necessary to cope with the sit-
uation. It having been decided that
religious services are no longer bold-
able after tomorrow without it prelim-
inary declaration under the law of
lBSl, the pope's orders entail the im-
mediate initiation of prosecutions in
36,000 communes, and logically the
invasion of churches by the p IIICe for
solution and expelling the parish
prelsts. The militant Catholics seem-
ingly hall with joy the prospect of vio
lence which will compel the closing
of the churches. with the attendant
excitement of religious prosecutions.
M. Jnures, the Socialist leader, profess
see to believe that the Vatican has
deliberately determined to test the
strength of the party of reaction in an
effort to overthrow the republic. The
Socialist organs generally,“ however.
regard the pope's instructions as being
the result of the government's weak-
ness in.offeriug any concession beyond
the formation of the cultural associa-
tions contemplate under the law of
1905, and declare t at the government
now has no alfemtivc except to insist
on declarations being made to show
the ecclesiastlc the door. The
Conservative papers advise the so
vernmeni, to remain true to its liberal
principles, contending that the more
the church is intolerant and. panic
stricken. the more authority it will
need, provided the government does
not lose its head. The government
has made preparations to cope with the
situation. but is keeping them secret,
evidently awaiting to see whether any
considerable proportion of the clergy
will revolt. The cabinet, however
maintains a resolute fight. lustruc
tions to the public prosecutors were
telesrlnhed broadcast today.
Premier Clemenceau is Quoted at
lflli’f .~ _
If the church elects to have war it
will have it, butthe world will bear
witness that the Vatican is like foreign
power trying to dispute the authority
of the French Government."
M. Brlnnd. Minister of Public Wor-
ship, says he thinks the pope yielded
to the importunitles ol‘ the Ultramon-
tunes. who are possessed with the
insane idea that out of disorder and
civil war they will ,emerge triumphant.
The government now does not face a
revolt of the consciences of French
Catholics, but a purely political enter-
prise."
HOMI. Dec. 10.—Up to the present
all the news regarding th edetermina
tion of the Vatican not. to accept. the
decision that religious services may
be celebrated in France under the
law of 18l is derived from a short te-
legram sent to Rome to some French
bishops, who had totally or substantial-
ly accepted the application of that
law. Cardinal Richard, archbishop of
Paris, will receive today a letter from
the pope forbidding the French clergy
to make the declarations prescribed by
the law of 1881 and giving his reasons
for the order, which will chiefly be
found in the clrculhr of M. Brlnad. the
French Minister of Public Warships.
which, according to the Vitlcan. mak
on the situation of the bishops and
parish priests unbearable and is es
poclally severe in ifs bearing on the
seminaries
The situation ls considered to be
most grave. The French clergy have
informed the Vitlcun that they are
ready to submit to all the penalties in-
volvcd ln noncomplylng with the
law, including imprisonment. rather
than yield, while the Vatican openly
announces that it is ready to face the
abandonment of public worship and
their docks are obliged to abandon the
churches.

singular Misfortune Which Be-
lell Mr. I. Wilson «Consulting
Dounsel Who Had Won Case
for film
Just as James Wilson of ll‘alrfleld
was about to explain a business trans-
action. he was stricken dumb in the
offices of Attorney King & Greensteln
in the Security Building. Bridgeport,
Thursday afternoon. Attorney Henry
Greenstein heard the door open and
looking up from his desk saw Wilson
enter. He recognized the young man
as a client of the firm.
The lawyer was astonished when
Wilson advanced to the desk. and mov-
ed hls line without producing a sound.
“What's the matter?" he demanded
of Wilson.
Wilson seized a pencil and paper
and wrote: “I've been struck dumb. It
came on me suddenly."
it was found necessary to carry on
the business conversation In ‘writfng.
Wilson is a man about 26 years
old. He lives in Fairfleld and is un-
married. Several months ago, through
Attorneys King & Greensteln he
brought suit against Raymond Mat-
son. formerly of Falrfleld; for $300
damages. Wilson claimed he had been
employed on Mntson's farm. after he
had given up the position he returned
one day to get his trunk and wages. He
alleged that Matson assaulted him on
that occasion. The suit was tried be-
fore a jury in the court of Common
Pleas last week and Wilson was
awarded damages of $200 and costs.
Maison is in Porto Rico at the present
time. He holds a. Goverment position
there.
Wilson can give only one explana-
tion of his sudden misfortune. While
employed in a West End factory re«
cently he accidentally struck a screw
driver Into his hand and produced an
ugly wound. He thinks that the nor-
ves may have been affected by the
wound.
