tion of affairs is attributed to too many
stag party sleigh rides to Dorlon’s
Point, the unfortunate dissension
among the members which was precipi-
tated by the bitter controversy over
who paid for the wine and who furn-
ished the turnout, and the further
fact that their folks tell them it’s time
to quit this monkey and parrot busi-
ness and go to work.
Waterbury ladies must have clear
consciences if they are all like those
two who stopped at the Gilsey House
on the night that the Fifth avenue the-
ater was burned. The ladies retired
just before the fire broke out, and after
a while, hearing the throbbing of the
engines, one said that the hotel was get-
ting very noisy and that they would
have to go elsewhere in future. They
then slept the sleep of the just and did
not know anything further about the
fire until the next morning when they
remarked the peculiar condition of the
streets as they went to breakfast.

Frank Sheldon Committed suicide
yesterday afternoon about 3 o’clock, as

up. 'While intoxicated earlier ‘in the

His son
wife iii. a murderous manner.
Harry, aged sixteen, interfered to pro-
tect his mother. when the infuriated
man raised a chair and struck the boy
a severe blow on the head. The half-
dazed boy then ran into another room,
jumped out of a window, which was in
the, second story, and hurried away for
a policeman. When the latter arrived,
he was obliged to force an entrance,
Sheldon havjinglocked the door. He was
promptly arrested and taken taken to
city lockup and left alone with his re-
flections. It is thought that after he had
become partially sober, he imagined he
had killed his wife, and being stricken
with remorse, committed the rash act
which hurried him into eternity.
It will, be remembered that between
one or ‘two years ago, in a quarrel with
his brother, Warren Sheldon, in one of
the city saloons, Frank threw a beer
glass which inflicted an ugly cut on
Warren’s head, and the latter died two
Or-tliree weeks afterwards. Since that
time. Frank, when inflamed by liquor,
is said to have acted like one haunted
by a demon. .
7 When in his sober senses, we are in-
formed, he was a. kind and indulgent
husband and father; but when under
the influence of strong dtiuk, wnich he
frquc-ntly was, he became as brutal as a.
fiend. At such times he would maltreat
his family in an outrageous manner, but
Seldom offered to assault anyone else.
His wife, who was ill at the time, was
severely hurt by litm yesterday, having
one rib broken and sustaining other in-
juries. He leaves, besides his family,
an old mother, who is well-nigh heart-
broken by the terrible fate which hashe-
fallen her two sons, and all, as she feels
it to be, caused by strong drink.
There are, a number of morals to be
drawn from this tragic event, and the
question is suggested by this self-mur-
der and the liquor dealers’ license trials
now going on—‘ ‘ Is there any proper
place to sell intoxicaiits to such irre-
sponsible victims of drink as poor
Frank Sheldon?” “Judge not, lest ye
be judged ” -
The body was taken to undertaker
J ellifi'e’s' establishment, and after be-
ing prepared for burial, was conveyed
to his stricken and desolate home.
Since the above wentin type, we hear
it reported that Sheldon was not intox-
icated yesterday; but we believe our
statemenr of the case is substantially
correct, the reporter having directly
received the particulars from a near-
neighbor of the Sheldon family, and
a partial eye-witness of the occurrence.

the same track. He jumped and saved
himself, and John Nicholas, his fire—
man, about 18 years Of._age, jumped
upon the coal in the tender and was
unhurt. The engine of the passenger

and it caused much curiosity on the
part of people all the forenoon while

said that Engineer Glenning was on the

ANNUAL REPORT 01" N()Rll".-1LK'S
BOARD OF‘SCHOOL VISITORS.
The annual report of the Board Of
School Visitors of the town of Norwalk,
for 1890 has been completed and 'con-
tains many interesting statistics. The
total appropriations fOr the mainten-
ance of the schools as ratified in the
town meetings of 1888 and 1889 is $34,-
307 and the amount expended for such
maintenance and for supervision and
expenses of the board is $33,316,532,
leaving an unexpended balance of
3990,68. The total enumeration of
children Of school age is 3,588 and the
expense per capita of enumeration is
$9.22, per capita Of average registration
$15. 35, and per capita of average at-
tendance is $18. 56.
The population of Norwalk is 17,743,
and the school population shows a. ratio
of one to every 5.09_of the inhabitants.
The ratio of the whole state last year
was one to 4.44 inhabitants. There are
just 100 less children enumerated for
1890 than in 1889, but this is explained
that the decrease is only apparent and
does not indicate that the growth of
Norwalk has been interrupted, butthat
it is quite likely that errors have form-
erly been made.
The aggregate length l of the terms .
are 40 weeks of school out Of the 52
which cOnstitutethe year. There has
been appropriated for the present year
the sum of $35,508. The number of
pupils in each Of the districts is as fol-
lows : SouthNorwalk, 1046; Over River
655; Center, 515; East Norwalk, 509;
Broad River, 144; North Center, 110;
