Michael Admits to Thirty-eight,
But the Police Go Him One
Better, and Still lie Disputes
ludge Taylor’s Decision that
lie Is a Common Drunkard
Opinions differ as to what consti-
tutes a common drunkard.
Judge Joaeph R. Taylor believes that
Mike Sullivan answers the statute's
requirements in that respect, and this
morning be sentenced the said Michael
to 120 days in Bridgeport jail on the
allegation that he really is a common
drunkard.
Mike thinks he is not one and told
the judge so. Mike's record, however,
seems to have served as a nemesis in
this instance.
“How many times have you been are
rested before?" asked Judge Taylor,
after Michael had repudiated the, in-
sinuation on Prosecuting Attorney
William F. Tammany's complaint that
ho is a common drunkard.
“Well, i have been arrested thirty:
seven times before," drawch out Sul-
livan, after some hesitation.
“What were you arrested all of these
times for?" Judge Taylor Continued
the questioning.
“For getting drunk." admitted Stil-
livan.
“And then you don't think you ought
to be considered a common drunkard 1’"
summed up the judge.
“I‘ve paid for all of those," retoried
Sullivan, “and I don‘t. see why they
should be brought up against me now.
Let & go and I'll get out of town."
The judge reminded him that he
had promised to get out of town before,
but he managed to get back again,
and that be had been seen drunk the
next day after getting out of jay. '
"What's the use of sending me over
there?" was Sullivan's despairing coin-
meat. “It won't do any good. Let me
go and I'll stay away."
The poliue state that Sullivan's pres-
ent conviction for'IIrunkenness is his
thirty-ninth. Five times he has been
convicted of being a common drunkard
and thirty-four times for drunkenness.
He holds the local police court record
and It is considered likely that he
could qualify for the state record.
Sullivan got. into his present trouble,
last night, in Havilaud street. lie was
drunk about the street yesterday after-
noon and there was trouble in the air.
He met his Waterloo while expressing
his feelings in language not just fit
for parlor discourse. Officer Frank
Stratton took him to police headquar-
ters.
Sullivan took an appeal from the de-
cision of the judge, but not having the
necessary bond, went to‘liridgeport
jail to await trial before the Septem'
her term.
YOUTHFUL OFFENDERS IN COURT
Boys Charged With Theft Let Off With
a Warning.
Two of the yo'nngest offenders that
the South Norwaik police court has
had in many a day ware brought be-
fore Judge Joseph R. Taylor this
morning, in the person of Daniel No-
vak, ten years old, and Michael Rosso.
nine years old.
There was a formidable charge of
theft against the bright little young
sters, and the judge 'ttve them fair
warning that unless tIey men their
ways, he wlu surely send them to the
state refomirjchool. Despite their
tender age, itrwas admitted that they
have been in similar trouble before,
and Dannle's father. Stephen Novak,
told the court that his son had reach-
ed a point where he could not control
him. ‘
The father said that Daniel had tap-
ped the fill in the former‘s saloon, and
diminutive Mike .Rosso told the judge
that he had taken 82 previously from
Giacomo Cuneo's fruit store in Wash
lngton street. ,3,“ .
Neither lad wanted to be sent to the
state reform school and each blamed
the other for yesterday's operations.
.. Ten-year—old Daniel declared that it
was nine-year—old Michael who had
started him on the wrong path. Mich~
ael, who is decidedly precocious, sat
and listened to his companion with an
amused smile on his face, which seem-
ed to say: "Just listen to that."
The two boys were picked up by
Special Officer Clarence Germanoiti,
who had been informed that the little
fellows had an inordinate amount of
money for boys of such tender age.
They had over 87 between them and .
were soon all tangled up in their ex-
planations. They finally admitted that
they had taken the cash from Cuneo's
fruit store and from a place on the
Washington street bridge. Officer
Germsnettl took them along with him
and found that. it wag true that they
had made on with 76 cents from Cun-
eo's store and 37 from M. Josem &
Son's store on the Washington street
bridge. Each accused the other. No-
vak insisted to Judge Taylor this mor-
ning that his companion took the
money in both places, but. Rosso stout-
ly maintained that he had simply taken
the 76 cents and that Novak took the
$7 and was going to buy him a pair
of shoes. Master Rosso also declared
that their original intention was to
get 81.35 to replace this amount that
Novak had taken from his father's
till.
The boys told their stories very ear-

Chief Engineer Clark to Recom-
mend the Purchase ui a
Steam, Gasolene or Electric
Engine for Use in 80th Her-
walk
The officers of the South Norwaik
Fire Department are very 'llllchl
pleased with the result of the tent
made last nuigbt with the City of
Norwalk‘s fire steamer. in Elmwood
and Taylor avenues, and it is the in-
tention of Chief Harold F. Clark .to
recommend to the City Council the
purchase of II. steam, gasoline or elec-
tric engine.
The test was made shortly after 7
o'clock, the steamer being In charge
of Engineer George S. Aiken and Fire-
man William S. Bartram. of the Nor»
walk Fire Department, the first con-
nection being made at the hydrant in
front of the residence of Judge John
H. Light, at the corner of Elmwood
avenue and High street. When the
water was turned Into the steamer,
tltere was no response on the pres
sure gauge of the steamer, but when
the steamer was started up. the result
was a single stream from a one and
one-half inch nozzle about twice as
high as the horses. Another test, on
the hydrant. without the steamer. gave
a stream said to have been but about
25 feet high. At this point there Is a
four-inch main.
Tho steamer was then taken to II
high point In Taylor avenue. where
there is n six-inch main. Here the
steamer sent two streams near F. B.
Coleman's residence. about 50 feet
high, and a single stream about 125 or
136 feet, In the chief‘s opinion. The
firemen any they were hampered. too,
by the fact that the fans were ordinary
and not steamer hydrants, At a lower
point In Taylor avenue, the steamer
sent up a stream higher than in the
previous case.
Four members of the city council
were In attendance. including James
T. Powers. Fire Commissioner George
w. Bogurdus. Frank H. Fitch and Dan-
iel Duulop. In addition to the South
Norawlk firemen. Chief Milne and sev-
eral other officers of the Norwalk. de-
partment were present,
The test was not as long as it, would
have been but for the drought.
Chief Clark said in relation to the
test: There Is no question that the test
was successful and no doubt that South
Norwalk needs a tire engiuew-not only
for the hill section. but for the factory
district along the waterfront. as well.
Some. kind of a pumping apparatus.
steam, gasoline or electric is needed.
Some of the prominent factory owners
have stated that they are anxious to
see steps taken to procure an engine
and many residents whom I believed
opposed to an engine are, cnihusiasti
cally in favor of one being purchased."

FARMERS ARE DISCOURAGED.
Lack of Rain In Proving the Ruination
of the Crops.
The farmers in the vicinity of The
Norwalks have become fully discour»
aged now, owing to the lack of rain.
Many of them have large areas of
land, planted with potatoes and many
other products which are about doom-
ed. The. early potatoes, which were
put in the ground before the drought
struck here will be fairly goodybut the
latter crops, upon which they depend.
will be light.
in some places the ground drys
quicker than in others, and some of
the planters have simply ploughed up
the land, believing the crops to be
useless.
Corn, another crap upon which many
farmers depend to make money, will
be exceedingly light, although if rain
comes to the relief within a few days,
there will be help for sotue of this.
Much other garden truck has dried
up now. and will be useless. The Ques-
tion of milk has also be come a serious
matter. There being no rui there is
no grass in the fields upon hich the
cattle can feed. consequently the sup-
ply of this fluid is running low. and
many of the dealers about the town
have to cut their customers' wants in
half, to make the frugal supply go
around. '
Although there has been plenty of
rain all around this vicinity, there are
many other places that are suffering
as much as are the people of The
Norwalks. In Maine. formers are giv-
ing up any hopes of harvesting any
crops this year, the rays of "Old Sol"
fairly burning up every thing in sight.
Four or five days of slow, steady
rain would bring things around to their
normal state, and start the reservoirs.
Should it rain hard for a number of
days, all garden produce would proba~
biy mould and rot. '

Ventilating and Heating Sys-
tems Again Under Discussion,
and the Few Citizens Pres-
ent Favored Having Some-
thing Done to Remedy Exist-
ing Evils
ileiwecn twenty and twenty-live vot~
ers attended the adjourned meeting of
the South Norwaik Union School dis-
trict, last night, to further consider the
treating, ventilating and sanitary ap-
pointments of the Franklin, Concord
and Lincoln school buildings.
It. seemed to be the consensus of
opinion that the most serious matter
under consideration was the ventilat-
ing of the Franklin school building.
Despite the small attendance, all who
were there, endured the oppressive
heal for two hours In an effort to solve
the dillicuity.
it was brought forcefully out that
the sanitary system in the Franklin
school is not satisfactory, in that at.
certain times, depending upon the
wind, there is u back draft, which
backfires odor. This system was in-
stalled by the Peek at Williamson Cont:
puny, of Cincinnati, 0., to whom
lioracc if. Nash wrote at the direction
of the district meciing held recently.
Mr. Nash wrote about ten days ago
but up to last night had not heard a
word in reply.
Charles id. Jennings believed this
letter should have been immediately
replied to by the company, and upon
his motion, seconded by Edgar ii. Fox,
it was voted to have Judge John If.
Light, as chairman of the district com
mittee, communicate with the coili-
pany and ascertain what they propose
to do toward remedying the difficulty.
it was further voted by the meeting,
inter, upon the suggestion of Judge
Light and motion of I). William liar-
ford, that the minor Improvements
recommended by the special commit-
tee be carried out. The committee's
full recommendations were as follows:
Gentlemen:
Your committee submits the report
of Mr. Irving (‘. Jennings, iii. 1?... and
recommend that the following changes
he made this sumnnp‘:
Lincoln Schoolwi’ut in fan and
carry out everylhing recommended by
Mr. Jennings. except cold air duct. at
a cost of about $7.50. .
Franklin Street School—Change
heating of old part of Franklin school
as recommended by Mr. Jennings at
a probable cost of $2.500.
We strongly recommend that the
fan recommended for the toilet room
of the Franklin building be put in.
The ventilation as it is now is very
bad and even if the chimney be made
to draw. by making it higher, the.
extra cost of coal over the cost of
running fan would pay for a fan in a
few years.
in regard to the new part of the
Franklin School we think that while
the fan recommended would be the
correct thing We do not feel that it is
absolutely necessary to do it once, and
recommend that the suggestions. Nos.
1, 2. (I and i of Mr. Jennings‘ report
be carried out.
The changes suggested would cause
no extra expense if you should decide
later to put in the fun.
We also recommend that the. en
largement of the trap door in stack
room of new building be done as sug-
{05th. Also that valve be put in re
turn pipe of new building, so either
part can be heated separately.
We do not think it would be good
judgment to make any change in the
old part of the Franklin school unless
an entire change Is made on the lines
of Mr. Jennings‘ recommendations.
if fan is not put in the Lincoln build-
ing, we recommend that the recom-
mendations and suggestions made' by
Mr. Jennings, be carried out, except.
as to cold air duct, costing about $100.
We believe that sooner or later it
will be necessary to put in a fan and
when It. is done the duct will be use
less.
Respectfully yours,
HORACE R. NASH,
WM. H. M'MAHON.
Some zest was added to last night's
meeting, when John A. Hamilton was
suggested by Judge Light to preside.
Mr. Hamilton took the chair, but was
immediately challenged by Horace R.

Congressmen Hill Talks on Brit-
ish Patent Law—Bill Has
Been Prepared to Retaliaie
on England for New Patent
Law and Hill Will Present
This to Congress
Connecticut manufacturers of arti-
cles which are patented in Great Brit.-
ain are apprehensive over what may
happen after August 28 when anyone
may cause the revocation of a British
patent if the article protected is not
being made in Great Britain. Machin-
ery, guns, corsets, hose supporters and
similar articles made in this state are
patented in England.
A Bridgeport manufacturer of hose
supporters and other specialties has
established a plan for the manufao
ture of his goods in Birmingham, Eng-
land. since the passage of this law. and
at the some time preserves his patent
rights in both countries. Other manu-
facturers. who have British patents,
are arranging with concerns in the
saute or similar lines of business in
England to make their goods there. .
Congressman Hill. of the Fourth dis-
trict, who is a manufacturer and also
a member of the ways and means com-
mittee, was in Germany when a simi-
lar law was passed there, and on his
return instigated a retaliatory law by
which all goods made under American
patents must be made In this country.
This bill has been mad-e ready by the
House committee on patents and will
.come before Congress imediately af-
ter the. opening of the session next
December.
Said Mr. Hill yesterday regarding
tho British law: "It is said in England
that this law is the most Important
step toward actual protection that
England has taken, and I think that
is so. Matty of their manufacturers
favor protection for British manufac
turers and this lea. neat way of best-
Itig the devil around. he stump.
“This law wasn't" lined at us so
much as it was at Germany, which
manufactures the greater part of the
immense quantity of dyestuffs used Ill-
Eugland under British patents.
dcrstand the (let-mans now are
"suing Eugllsli’ p ilnts where their ne-
crei formulas wil be used.
“Our present patent commissioner,
Mr. Dewall, is now in England trying
to effect an arrangement by which
parts of articles can be shipped across
and be assembled over there, than
coming within the law, as we do with
Canada. I understand he is meeting
with little success.’
