Illsiory at the Club House of
Hickory Bluff

The Norwaik Yacht Club held Its
smoker, Saturday evening, owing to
the clearing weather of the afternoon,

PICTURE FAKIRS IN TOWN.

 

Two Men Used. George. 6. North'-
Name Without Authority.

Two strangers" were at work in
South Norwalk. last week. canvassing
for a set of books, and trying to get
orders on portraits, claiming they had
the sanction of George 3. North, the
Washington street photographer. The
men visited several houses in Quin-
tard avenue and vicinity, but as the
residents there had beén fooled pre-
viously by various schemes. it is not
believed that the fellows secured any
money insadvance.

The matter was reported today to
the police and Mr. North,- but it is
believed the men have left town. Mr.
North stated that he had given no one
authority to canvass for orders in his
name. and he believed the men were

Rowayton and.80uth Norwalk .
Friends.

with lir. and Mrs. Stiles Lawrence, at

a surprise by a number of her
Rowaytou and South Norwalk friends.

Friday evening. The guests arrived
at about 8:30 o'clock, and did not
leave until the lust car for Roway~
ton.

Mrs. Walker proved equal to the
"task" of entertaining as well as that
of “controlling" her young friends.
who were apt to become over’cfithu.
elastic in their fun making. Songs
were sung until every one was “sling
out." After the songs a peanut race
began. 'The hostess had her hands
full trying to keep order during the
race. It was won by a small boy,
who, out of pure shame for his older
and larger competitors, does not care
to have his name metntioned; ho was
so "wee and bonnie."

The guests also had the pleasure
of meeting Dr. J. H. Mailory.adentist.
who has recently settled in South
Norwaik and has been very successful
at. his business. He seemed to under-
stand what most young people enjoy
on a warm evening. and soon every
one was “wading Into" ice cream and
refreshments, just as so mow two
year old children would wade into a
mud puddle.

After the refreshments were served.
the guests departed for home, each
one declaring an evening very pleas-
antly spent.

Those present were: Mrs. Walker.
Mrs. S. Lawrence and daughter, Dr. J.
H, Mallory. Mr. and Mrs. Morris Bak-
er, Misses Vivian Stevens, Minerva
Carpenter, iola Stevens. Gertrude Dib-
ble, Frances Ceilings, Martha Taylor.
Eva, Atwater. Edith Mead and Pres
ton Hart.

or May Not Recover.

Mrs. James McKiernan, mother of
Joe McKlernan. the wellslmown base-
ball catcher. was stricken with a

stroke cf apoplexy, Saturday evening.
while sitting on her porch in Chapel;
street. She was apparently as well as
ever a minute before and when the
stroke afi’ected her, she was insensibie
and has remained that way since then.

Dr. W. B. Burneii, of Wall street,
was called in and everything possible
was done for her relief. Mrs. McKier-
nan has a large circle of friends in
Norwalk who are grieved to hear of
her sudden affliction.

 

There seems to be no change in her
condition today. and the doctors are
not able to tell just how bad the stroke

Captain Peter E. Halns, Accus-
ed of the Murder of William
E. Annie, on file Verge of a
Nervous Collapse

 

NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-Captain Pe-
ter E. Hains and his brother. T. Jen-
kins Hains, were tOken from the
Queens County jail today, and arraign-
ed in the magistrate's Court In Long
island City, the former charged with
the killing of William E. Annie. at
the Bayside Yacht Club over a week
ago, and the brother charged with be
inf an accessory to the act.

Captain Halns plainly showed the
effects of a week's confinement, but
his brother seemed unconcerned and
calm, The brothers were handcuffed
together when brought into court. An
attorney representing John I". McIn-
tyre, of the Halos brothers' counsel,
accompanied the accused Illf‘l. who
were taken to the court on a trolley
car by detectives.

A crowd, mostly composed of women
and children, was waiting at the court
room door to get a glimpse of the pris-
oners. Several photographers took
snapshots of the men as they hurried
Into the court.

Captain Halns, when led to a seat.
bowed his head, and seemed on the
verge of a nervous collapse,

laptain Halns wore the uniform of
a captain of the United States Army.
John C. Shea. of the counsel for the
Halns, explained that Captain Haines'
leave of absence from his post at. Fort
Hancock expired today and that when
an officer returned to duty after a
leave of absence he always wore his
uniform. General Halns, father of
the accused men, and Major Halns,
their brother. were In court.

John F. McIntyre, of Halns' counsel,
Informed Magistrate Gllroy that he
and the district attorney had agreed
to postpone the hearing until next Fri-
day. The magistrate consented and
the case was postponed. The prison-
ers were then taken back to the
Queens County jail.

Asked the reason for Captain Hains
wearing his army unlfonn. Mr. Mcin-
tyre said later that the captain had
the Idea that. he was going back to
Fort Hamilton.

District Attorney Darrin. who is
prosecuting the case. said today that
he did not believe the true motive for
the shooting had yet come out.

HOLLORAN MUST IEHAVE HIM-
SELF.

Threatened With Jail if He Is Arrest.-
ed Again.

The (‘ltfif‘ of Thomas ilolloran, of
Grandvlcw avenue, Norwalk, who was
arrested Saturday evening on com-
plaint of his wife, came up this morn.
ing at 10:30 o'clock in the Norwaik
town court before Judge Taylor.

Hollorun was charged with intoxi-
cation and breach of The peace. He
pleaded guilty to intoxication, but not
to the latter charge.

Prosecutor Davis stated that the
man was of little use as to the sup-
port of his family, but if he was put in
jail as he ought to be it would be a
hardship to his wife; It. also would be
if he was fined. He thought that if
whipping posts were allowed, this man
wuold make a good case for It.

It seems that some time ago Mrs.
Hailoran came to Chief Bradley and
stated that her husband came home
at night drunk and struck her and
drove her with her five children from
the house. She said that she had to
take in washing. and‘ as she is in a
delicate state she is no longer able to
do this. Consequently Saturday even
lng she made a complaint and had him
arrested.

Judge Taylor continued the case un-
til four weeks from this morning, and
told him that if In that time any com-
plaints were received about him and
he was found guilty of more trouble he
would be sent to jail.

KEELEII FOR SENATOR

Norwalk Republicans liming
Him to be the Opponent of
Senator Ieremieh Donovan

 

 

Former Lieutenant Governor Edwin
0. Keeler, of Norwaik, may get Into
politics as a candidate, this fall. Prom-
Inent Republicans are urging him to
run for state senator from the 26th
district, which includes the towns of

Norwalk, Darlen, New Canaan and
Wilton. but he is hesitatlng over con-
aentlng.

Having held the edicts of lieutenant
governor. it is questionable whether
it would be advisable for him to go
into the race this fall! from a personal
standpoint.

It is believed that the only consid-
eration which would sway him would
be the insistence of the party that his
assistance would be necessary to
make a clean Republican sweep this
fall.

The bringing of Mr. Keeier Into the
race, of course, has depended upon the
supposition that Senator Jeremiah
Donovan will be a candidate for re
election. But it has been whispered
about that Senator Donovan might be
the Democratic foeman of Congress-
man E. J. Hill, and consequently cv
erythlng in the candidate line is not
yet settled.

Senator Donovan has twice been
elected senator from this district. Two
years ago, according to the Connecti-
cut state register. Senator Donovan's
total vote was 2.661. as against J. Ar-
thur Osborn'a (Republican) 2.088, or
a plurality of 573. In 1904 Mr. Dono~
van's plurality was 100.

With Messrs. Keeier and Donovan
in the field as opposition candidates,
there would be certainly something do-
ing.
