Attempted Murder and Suicide.
Tuesday afternoon (Thief Lockwood
and Officer DeForest were notified that
Mrs. John White, a metally unbalanced
woman living on the Riverside road, was
attempting to drown herself and her two
children in the creek near the Selleck
powder house. The officers immediately
procured a horse and wagon and drove
to the spot. whem thty arrived just in
time. The woman was up to he;- neck
in water clutching her seven years old
boy by the arm and tryihg to force him
under, which she was unable to do as he
clung desperately to a bush on the bank.
The other child was on the bank crying
bitterly. Otficer DeForest jumped into
the water, and grabbed the woman by
the drem waist but she struggled desper-
ately and wrenched herself loose by tear—
in; her dress almost entirely of! the up-
per part of her person. The oflicor grub-
bed her again and Chief Lockwood took
nhand, and she was soon brought to land
and loaded inloa wagon and taken to
the lockup. The children were turned
over into the custody of their father.
The unfortunate woman will be taken to
the asylum. She has been subject to
crazy spells for 0011155 ‘timo and at such
times is ugly and ylcious and has given
her family and neighbors no end of truth

drown her children and herself. and her
final desperate “tempt has resulted in
measures being taken which ought to

BASE BALL NEWS.
About .th rec hundred people were pres-
ent to witness the ball game last Satur—
day afternoon between the Norwalks
and the Park Citys. Our prediction
that the Norwalk boys Would play a
good game proved true. and if they
continue to play its finely as they did
last Saturday they will be able to com~
pete with any club in the county. The
Park t‘itys received nine goose eggs but
not because they werenpoor team by
any means. The cause. of their defeat
can be assigned to the superior playing
of the Norwalks. Meehan and Dun-
ning was the battery for the home club
and they were well supported in the.
field. Home pretty plays were made.
but the two witches made by Will Rich-
ards were received with loud applause.
They were probably tho finest plays
made on the grounds so far this season.
John llogardns umpired the game and
gave. general satisfaction. An effort is
being made to afford better seating acco-
mudations for the spectators which will
doubtless be at precinted by the public.
as the interest in the game is lost to a
certain extent by being exposed to the
heat of the i-un during the game.
The following is the score by innings
of Saturday‘s game.

first two palms of the season. but it is
hardly fair to refuse to play now that
the .\orwiilk boys are in a fair con-

A Great Day For Runaways.

up in the matter of breakdowns and run-
away horses Daubury would soon lose
her reputatiion in that respect and the
pennant would be removed to this city.
The following occurrences iti question
from our note book vvill show the record
of a few short hours on that day:
About nine o‘clock the horse belonging
to William ll. Wells of Rowayton he-
cauie frightened at the cars and started
across the track at a lively rate. He ran
into the team of Nelson Tuttle standing
in front of L. Dibble‘s store and com-
pletely severed Mr. Tuitle a horse from
the wagon. Keeping on up the street
he ran into the carriage of Mr. Vander-
hoof of the borough but was stopped be-
fore much damage was done.
A hack belonging to Silas Gregory
while passing C. B. DeKlyu‘s store broke
down and remained near the sidewalk
most of the morning. The occupants of
the vehicle received considerable fright.
Isaac Jennings With his mother and a
child were in a carriage on Washington
street when the horse became frightened
at the men working in Mr. England‘s
cellar. After considerable kicking the
horse broke loose from the carriage and
with the Whippletrec hanging behind
him the horse wont spinning up \Vnsh-
ington street. The horse book a wheel
off of Dr. Bohannnn‘s carriage that was
standing in front of his residence and
kept on up town and was not stopped
until reaching the borough. Much fright
was caused by the runaway as the horse
kept the sidewalk most of the way.
Dr. Bohnnnan. father of Dr. C. G.
Bahamian was driving down Main street
in the afternoon when the horses breech

Frank D. Lawton‘s horse upset a de-
livery wagon in the afternoon but no
serious damage was done.

be. delighted to know that mnnonting
