Contest in Fairlield County Dele-

HARTFORD. Jan. ii.-—Shcrlff Sid-
ney IIawIey. of Brookileld and
Bi'ldgt ort. “had the goods" in the
joint Republican caucus for the num-
ing of a United States senator at the
capitol Tuesday and he used them.
There Is not the slightest doubt In the
minds of many of Mr. llill's friends
that if Sheriff llawley had kept out.
or the contest the Norwalk man would
have won. Tile question of whether or
not this was good politics Is for the
residents of the county and the future
to decide. Sheriff Hawley had been in
the political game ioug Onough to
know it. thoroughly. and did not enter
the contest without giving it though.
One of the ‘r‘aii'fleld county repro
sentatives. wlio professes to know just
how many votes Sheriff Hawiey con-
trolled or influenced. stated emphati-
cally that the Brookiicld gentleman
held to votes to Mr. Brundegec and
the successful candidate‘s majority
was only 15. Eight votes would have
given Mr. Hill the victory and Sheriff
llawloy Is given credit for swinging
twice that number.
That. a man should have been de
feaicd in his own county by politicians
after having received a large majority
from the people of the county when
running for election as representative
may seem like tempting fate. but It
was "up to" the men who were re
spoinslblc whether or not they cared ti
do t.
or course the Hill men do not feel
very pleasant about it. but the Bran-
dogree men are wearing the "smile
that won't came om?"

MI‘S, Emily Morris. 3. Wilton woman,
72 years of age, was horribly burned
about the face In a somewhat unusual
manner yesterday, and was brought to

Mrs. Morris lives in the house with
her son, James b. Middlebrook. a rural
free delivery mail carrier. who starts
out from the Wilton postofiice. but oc-
cupies a section of the house separate
from her son and family. Yesterday
morning. Mrs. Morris sat. down in a
chair beside the kitchen stove and
dazed off, with the result that while
she was asleep she fell over on the
hot stove. The scoring of the flesh
and the pain quickly awakened her
but the damage had then been done.
The deep burns extended all about her
nose. mouth and check. and she was in
great agony. The pain was so intense
that she cried for help and her son.
who was just about to start. out. on
his route. and family". came to her as-
sistance. ‘
Dr. B. A. Bryon. was called down
from Ridgcfild to attend her and he
eased tier suffering. The physician
also, advised the injured woman's re-
moval to the Nor-walk Hospital. One,
of the worst features of the accident to
the great shock to tiltl wontanls 5W
tern. in her advanced years. and which
is considered serious. \
