having struck and knocked down a

The complaining witness against
Varady was Mrs. llczlkiah Elwood.
wife of Constable Elwood of Fair-
llcid. who came into court on crutch-
cs. The accident took place almost
in the center of “‘csiport about two
months ago and V'arady was arrested
in Norwuik by the local policc. He
denied at that time that he had struck
Mrs. Elwood. .
A bond of $1.000 was fixed on
\‘nrndy on his appeal from the fine of
$85 and costs. which was given him
on both 'counts on which he was ar-
rnigncd.
V’nrady clalmcd that his was not.

trict. died at the Norwalk Hospital on
Saturday evening shortly before 6
o’clock from injuries received when
his automobile was struck by a. Stam-
ford-bound trolley car at the corner
of West avenue and Circle street. in
front of his home. about 3:15 o'clock
on Saturday afternoon.
Matthew J. Ryan motorman and
George Otllam. Jr., conductor of the
trolley are being held by the police
under bonds of $2.500 each. on
charges of manslaughter awaiting the
decision of Coroner John J. l’helan
who is to ‘hold an inquest into the
cause‘of death. Dr. Baldwin was
turning as if to go back to South Nor-
walk frbm which direction he had
been coming.
Stories differ as to how the accidtnt
occurred, some saying that Dr. Bald-
win's automobile. a Ford Sedan. was
being turned to one side as if the
doctor was about to turn around
in thc middle of the street, others say
that the auto skidded and slipped
from a bank of snow and ice on to
the trolley tracks in front of the car
operated by Ryan. W’itnesses
of the trolley, some saying that it was
being driven at a fast . rate of speed.
others that it wasbcing driven at the
this section .ofAhe axcnue.

Pending the inquest neither Ryan
nor Otliam have made any statements.
”Phelr bonds were furnished by the

Dr. Baldwin wa- rushed to the Nor—

that he was suffering from a fracture
of the base of the skull: a severe scalp

confusions and abrasions of the face
and hit-ad and also from several frac-

Dr. “'illiam J. Tracey had been

out regaining consciousness.

about 7 o‘clock Saturday night that

And now comcs the end of another

prize campaign. which is due to arrive
with the closing hour of this week.
8 o'clock Saturday night. "this will
mark the final changeuin votes. when
like. final schedule. that of tho closing
week, ‘will be in effect.
There is to be no change in the ori-
ginal vote schedule as published at~the
sin". of the campaign. .other than the’
reduction that: is shan thereon for
the final week. This knocks into the
proverbial "cocked hat." any and all
rumors that have been circulated to
the effect that a large vote offer would
be sprung at the close as an added in-
ducement. for the candidates.
The only inducement necessary for
those who are firmly determiii'ed to
win is the actual value of the. ten
awards that are offered. What great—
er incentive couid be ar‘fled to the fact
that it is possible to'win a- splendid
new cér. a. 1,320 Buick Six Touring.
‘at‘ the end of eight short weeks? Or.
failing in that. to receive: either a.
$980 Maxwell Touring Car or a. 8600
Chevrolet Touring Car? Surely. noth-
ing in the way of extra. votes would
act: as a. stimulant topcrsonal cuergy
iftthe‘value of these splendid cars
could not excite the winning desires
of all who are“ entered. '
* Then .there are sevenrother awards
for those who fall just: short of win-
ning one of the_ three cars. In order
they are: $198 Bedroom Suite; 8100

business of securing subscriptions——
the big means of vote getting. The
spirit with which the campaign as a
whole was accepted by the candidates
and by the public gave to it an impet-
‘us that guaranteed its success from
the very start. The bitter h‘g‘lfi {Tint
has gone on from week to week for
leadership. within the ranks of the
candidates has brought about the de—
sired results: namely. to addhundreds

Incidentally. this same spirit
competition has also served to bring

campaign. It would be logical to as-
sume that some one or two candidates
during the six weeks that have
elapsed, would now be in a. position
where victory was assured them on

opposite is true. The only thing oer-r
