The Union Memorial Sunday school.

a m.. on two special cars for its an-

Bridge. where two other specials were
in readiness to complete the journey.
Arriving there with very‘little delay.
the party at once began to enjoy them-
selves with the various amusements.
Many of the boys were not to be de-
nied a swim. The grove served ample
space for the party to have luncheon,
which many carried. Five o'clock was
the time set for the journey home to
begin. and at 7:30 they were again in
Glenbrook. The weather was ideal.
and the picnic was a huge success.
Great credit should be given the one
tor. Rev. J, S. Evers; the superinten-
dent. (‘harles P. White. and all others
who.alded him in the preparation of
the delightful tinie.

 

Two men picked up in Darlen yester-
day morning are considered a rather
important capture and that they were
arrested is due to a clever ruse played
on them by Zigniund Mason. About
5:50 o'clock in the morning Mr. Mason
was somewhat mystified by the ac-
tions of the two men. who were then
near his home. Finally he saw one of
the men go behind a bush and than
emerge with four pairs of new shoes.
some of which they nttemihed to try
on. Mr. Mason took a walk out to
where they were and asked them
where they had gotten the footwear.
but the only reply was that they had
"gotten them somewhere." lie then
proceeded to dicker with them for the
sale of the shoes and ".50 was agreed
upon as the price. Mr. Mason declared
that he did not have the money. but
offered the suggestion that if they
would wait he would get the money
and meet them at the depot. This was
satisfactory to the men, but instead of
going after the money Mr. Mason went
after (‘onstsble Hartford Smith. who
promptly accompanied him to the de-
pot and placed the pair undcr'arrest.
They described themselves as William
Barrett. home New York. and John
lionncly. iioston. it was learned that
thev had been put of! a freight train
at 3:30 a. in. The two men were lock~
ed up and the Buried authorities pro
needed to make inquiries along the
line. A railroad detective also arrived
in Darlen during the day and was of

a car broken into at some point on
pthe Shore Line Division. cast of New
Haven.“ 31‘th men were being held at
last accounts to ascertain more about
the matter. '

 

Editor Sentinel: ‘~

A bill was presented is the legisla
turn by our Representntm William
son, giving the selectiuen the power
to purchase 260 shares of the Norcton
Company stock and 1th bonds: also “it
sue bonds of the town to pay for t
same. he representing it to be a unanl
mons vote of the town. That was a
mistake. as no such vote was evei
taken. When it came to the notice of
some of our townspeople that such a
bill was before the legislature. a pro-
test wus circulated through the town
and signed by a large number of pro»
perty owners against the passage of
this bill. which had been presented by
Mr. Williamson without any authority
whatever. When it became evident
to the promoters of this scheme that
the bill was liable to come to grief.
a notice suddenly appeared on the
town post calling a special town meet-
ing for next Monday night. the Btitb.
st 8 o'clock sharp. to vote for the
town to purchase the charter of said
Noroton Water Company, and to is-
sue bonds to pay for the same. build
dam and erect reservoir. etc.. to fur-
nish water for the town of buried. The
question is often asked why has not
the. Noroton Water Company. which
has held a charter for water in Darien
for about ten years. with unlimited
millions. gone ahead and furnished
the water? The answer is easy. They
know very well that it would not pay.
As the town is situated. with less than
3.000 scattered population. over 65
miles of road. no corporation would at-
tempt to not water in Darlen expect.
ing to ever make it pay. The town
meeting has been called for Monday
night. without any sign of a petition.
something very unusual. notice put up
on Wednesday late in the afternoon
giving only about five days. There is
as mtich mystery about this snap call
for a town meeting as there is as to
who was the father of the bill that ap-’
poured in Hartford. One of the coni-
mittee which was appointed to investi-
gate the water problem stated that
he was informed by reliable authority
that the cost of laying an eight-inch
water pipe would be $6,000 per mile.
not counting for rock. which would
be double the cOst. it is very evident
that a very large majority of the pro
perty owners in Barton are bitterly
oppOsed' to issuing of bonds to biiy
either stock. bonds or charter of the
Noroton Water Company. Let them
put in water and supply those who
want water and will pay for it. as well
as to themselves. and have all the
glory and benefits. Every property,
owner should attend this meeting.
