A Miss Sweet, who 'came to Norwalk
from North Cornwall, Litchfield coun-
ty, some time since, with a very pretfi,
tion to Selectman Daskam to get a good
home for her child. It was so unusu-
ally attractive and interesting that
Daskam’s big heart was too much
touched to let it go to the town’s poor
children’s home, and so he got it adopt-
ed into the family of Mr. Charles Ben-
nett, the mother relinquishing all claim
to it and promising never to interfere
with it, so long as it received
such kind and tender care.
About five weeks ago Miss Sweet mar-
ried a nephew of Mr. Ike Lee and to-
day she demanded the child, which Mr.
and Mrs. Bennett of course refused her
as they have become very much attach-
ed to it and the child to them. The
child also wants to remain with her fos—
ter parents and cried bitterly when
Sheriff Toner asked .it if it wanted to
go back and live with its erring moth-
er. It is understood that the mother
proposes to try legal means to get the
child, but Selectman Daskam also avers
that he will exhaust every legal means
in his power to compel its mother to
keep her contract, for the best inter-
ests of the child.
The Epworth Gathering.
The gathering of the Epworth leagues
at the Methodist church last evening
proved a fine success. Nearly three
hundred young people were present,
Christian workers in the several Metho-
dist churches hereabouts. Mrs. Scrib-
ner gave a good practical talk on the
work of the league in the church. The
social part of the programme was much
enjoyed by all present. The Norwalk
league was at its best and made every,
one happy about them.
An interesting Relic.
Among the many other interesting
and attractive features connected with
the adorning and furnishing of Grace
church, is an old time Spindle chair,
which was the property of Bishop Kem-
per while he was rector of St. Paul’s
church. Beneath the wooden seat is
glued a paper with this record and in
the hand-writing of the late Benjamin
Isaacs :
s:- --------------------------- x-
i; u
I This chair was bought by
I Benjamin Isaacs at auction,
: from Doctor, now Bishop
: Kemper, at the time he re-
' moved from Norwalk.
l
*
*'---—->l
ea --------------------------- al-
The chair was repolished, and a sil—
ver plate put upon the broad band on
the back above the spindles, with the
inscription “Bishop Kemper’s Chair,”
and then presented to Grace church by
Mr. Isaacs’ grand-daughter, Mrs. E.
P. Weed. It has been an heirloom in‘
the family and sacre’dly kept because
of its association with Bishop Kemper
of sainted memory. On Dr. Kemper’s
appointment to the Bishopric of the
great west, and removal from Norwalk,
he sold his household effects at apublic
.vendue and this article of furniture
was purchased as stated by Benjamin
Isaacs. On Monday night Bishop Wil-
liams sat in it with special delight.
The beautiful mahogany contribution
boxes, secured on the inner side ofthe
entrance doors of the church, are the
unique handiwork of Mr. George S.
Smith, the invalid brother of Ex-War-
den W. H. Smith, who has taken such
an active part in this new church en-
terprise. '

That the Y. M. C. A. athletic contest

That in these times of 1a grippe and

sleep in a room where fresh air is ad-
mitted without exposing one to a
draught. Sleep ten or eleven hours,
and in addition to this regular rest take
a nap whenever you are sleepy. A nice
old fellow says “A good sleep is better
than a banquet.”

A POLICEMAN’S LOT
is Not a Particularly Happy One
According to Chief DeForest.
There be many, no doubt, who think
that the average police officer has but
little to do “in piping times of peace”
save to smoke good cigars, revel in the
realm of anecdote, eat, drink and sleep.
Even in Norwalk this would be aro-
mance, pure and simple.
In the course of a little talk yesterday
with Chief DeForest, reference was
made to the Silver Mine woman who
thought her pocket had been picked in
Grace church, and whose lamentations
over her supposed loss fairly discount-
ed those of the prophet Jeremiah.
“Why,” said the Chief, “you’ve no
idea of the extent of this sort of busi-
ness. Only yesterday afternoon a man
rushed up to me wringing his hands
and with the most forlorn eXpression
on his face you ever saw. Said he,
‘Somebody’s stole my horse; now, hur-
ry and get him back. won’t .you?’ ”
Chief DeForest tried to calm the poor
fellow, and finally learned that he had
left his horse hitched in front of E. K.
Lockwood’s. Over there he went, as-
‘certained that the horse had been tak-
en to another place and hitched in or-.
der to be out of the way while goods
were being unloaded at the store. The
owner identified his rig by a soap box
in the wagon!
At 10 o’clock the same night a well-
known citizen sent word in a hurry
that an incendiary was prowling around
and under his barn. Chief DeForest
hurried over to the place, captured the
man (who proved to be a neighbor,)
and when the story was told. there was
quite a laugh. The pet eat of the sup-
posed incendiary had a litter of kittens
under the barn and the contemplated
incendiarism consisted of the problem
how to get at the kittens without burn-
ing the barn.
At 1 o’clock yesterday morning Chief
De Forest heard a commotion in Wa-
ter street. The electric lights were out
but in the moonlight he could see
something moving uneasily about on
the highway and sidewalk. Going out
and up Water street he found one of
Mr. Leonard’s horses enjoying himself
in the road, on the railroad track and
elsewhere like a lamb in the springtime.
So it goes, the events of one day be-
ing to a certain extent duplicated the
next day. By reason of his long police
experience and his general acquaint-
ance, Chief DeForest does night duty,
and to the fact that he is a vigilant
night hawk, several of our careless mer-
chants can give testimony.

NofAcrimonious Debate and Little
2’ Division of Opinion.
Yesterday afternoon when the DAILY
Gaanrrn representative arrived at the
architectural anomaly 'on the hill yclept
' ““Oiir Town House” the only other oc‘
cupant of the buildingvvas Chief De-
Forest, who, as the borough bailifl‘, was
industriously at work making the place
presentable. As late as 2:50 it looked
asmif the attendance at the meeting
would be limited to the gentlemen
named but within ten minutes the rear
guard began straggling up the hill, to
the number of about fifty, and occupied
the ancient seats of the town temple.
~ At 3:05 Warden Keeler climbed into
what resembles the captain’s bridge of
an‘ocean steamship and called the as-
‘dembled freemen to order, and, in the
absence of Clerk Warner, asked Mr.
Charles Quintard to act as clerk.
,After the clerk had read the call for
the meeting Mr. B. W. Maples ofiered
a :‘resolution authorizing J. Thornton
Prowitt, Oliver E. Wilson and Herbert
W. Kemp to act as a committee for the
purchase of 3,000 feet of 2.1: inch rubber
hose, four ply, guaranteed by responsi-
ble parties to withstand a hydrostatic
pressure of 400 pounds to the square
inch and also guaranteed for at least
three years’ service. Its weight not to
exceed one pound per lineal foot and
its cost not to exceed 90 cents per lineal
foot. By the terms of the resolution
the treasurer was empowered to pay
for the same when properly approved.
Mr. Theodore Smith moved to amend
by substituting $1.00 for 90 cents, as
the cost of the hose. He feared that
ninety cent hose might not be good
enough. .
Mr. Maples replied that in looking
into this subject as a matter of curiosity
he had been aided somewhat by an ar-
ticle in the Firemen’s Herald. “Rub-
ber hose is manufactured by three or
four parties, ”he said, “but I have heard
from only two. It strikes me that
one of the favorable features in the use
of rubber hose is that it does away
with the necessity of a fire or hose
tower. This hose can be used any-
where and in all seasons, can be thrown
anywhere after using and is not dam-
aged by such treatment. When we
had a hose tower it was but little used,-
as after fighting fire the tired firemen
naturally had but little inclination to-
ward spending much time in drying
hose.
“I think that the hose canibe bought
for 90 cents, but as I have no objection
to trusting the committee I willingly
accept the amendment. ’ ’
Mr. Walsh thought. the purchasing
committee should be appointed by the
Court of Burgesses. .
Mr. Maples replied that the Bur-
gesses had turned this whole subject
over to the borough meeting and
would like to have it thus disposed of.
Quite a lively breeze sprang up over
this matter, Mr. Maples properly con-
tending that four out of five of the ob-
jects named in the call were within the
$500 limit and could be disposed of by
the Court of Burgesses, but that the
whole thing had been turned over to
the borough meeting, fire hose and all,
for final action.
Burgess O’Reilly said the Burgesses
were unanimously in favor of definite
action by this meeting, and was in fa-
vor of the committee as named.
When those Who desired to ventilate
their ideas had concluded, a vote was
first taken on the Walsh amendment,
authorizing the Court of Burgesses to
appoint the hose purchasing commit-
tee. The amendment was lost by 26 to
18.
Mr. Maples then called for the ques-
tion on the original motion.
Mr. J. B. Ells moved to substitute
fire hose for rubber hose and that bids
for supplying the same be regularly
advertised for. This was not seconded
and the question recurring on the orig-
inal motion it was unanimously adopted.
[It should be said right here, how-
ever, that prior to taking the vote
Ex—Water Commissioner Moody sug-
gested that 1,500 feet of new hose was
all that was needed at present, but the
chorus of “Ohs” and “Ahs” which was
heard in the back part of the hall
either indicated the disapprobation of
the firemen at the suggestion, or that
they had all been taken severely ill at
the same moment] .
Mr. Maples said that inasmuch as the
other specifications in the call were
within the province of the Court of
Burgesses he would move an adjourn-
ment. Motion lost.
Ch‘ief Prowitt said the firemen fa-
vored the hose tower, believing it was
needed.
Mr. Maples asked if the hose tower
was necessary if we used rubber hose.
If so he would vote for it.
Chief Prowitt replied that,if any oth-
er than rubber hose were brought the
tower would be a necessity. He had
seen cotton, rubber lined hose that,
with proper care, had lasted 12 or 13
years. ,
A long discussion ensued in which,
while it seemed to be the consensus of
opinion that the rubber hose scheme
was correct, minor differences cropped
out, Mr. Ells believing that we should
have a fire alarm whistle instead of a
bell. . ‘
Mr. Maples moved that the Courtof
Burgesses be authorized and requested
to order the erection of a suitable hose
tower and to purchase lamps, harness,
etc., for the supply wagon.
The motion was adopted with but
three dissenting votes, whereupon ad-
journment was moved by Mr. Maples
and carried.

Lawn Tennis Club.
The first annual meeting of the Nor-
walk Lawn Tennis club was held last
evening in the new Casino on their
grounds. The building has been hur-
ried through and the last arrangements,
waxing the floor and so on, have been
personally attended to by the officers
in order that the club might be enabled
to meet in its own quarters. The at-
tendance was satisfactorily large, the
membership having jumped to the num-
ber of one hundred and thirteen. After
the reading of the reports, the election
of officers for the ensuing year was pro-
ceeded with. The balloting resulted in
the election of the following gentle-
men: J. Arthur Pinneo, president;Wil-
liam F. Acton, vice-president; Samuel
L. Weed, secretary; Le Grand Ray-
mond, treasurer; Board of Managers,
J. A. Pinneo, W. F. Acton, H. E. Bish-

bership Committee, J. A. Pinneo, S. L.
Weed, W. F. Acton, E. P. Weed and
H. E. Bishop.
A complete new set of by-laws was
then offered and accepted. and the meet-
ing adjourned. It had been the inten-
tion to have a pleasant little dance af-
ter the business was disposed of, and
the newly purchased piano was in place
with a pianist engaged for the occasion
but the night was so very cold unex-
pectedly, that the poor musician’s fin-
gers were stiff, and people were shiver-
ing, so it was thought best to postpone
the dancing to a more auspicious occa
sion in the near future.

Ere lonv Americanism will be the ...,..':
issue of the hour. When an Italian, an};
an Irishman, an Englishman, aFrench- 7...;
man becomes naturalized he should be
American, body, soul and brain. Let f"
him feel the deepest‘ interest in his , '30
birthplace—that is human and proper
——but his first allegiance, his entire de—
votion, should be to the country which
gives him a home, to the flag that floats E? -‘
over it: less is treachery. This is what :12 .:
Americans should demand before they =5”;
put the ballot into hands that other- ‘
wise may stab them in the back.
The day is not far distant when vigi- .,
lance committees will arise—North. ’ .,
South, Eastand West—demanding that
suffrage be restricted to native Amer
icans and such foreign-born citizens as
have lived here twenty-one years and
understand the constitution of the
United States. When that day comes,
justice will need no jury of 4,000‘ to
make its scales level, and such a spec-
tacle as reddened New Orleans the
other day will be impossible.
Sons and Daughters of the Revolu-
tion, organize! The daughter of an ”
Irishman gives you warning—[Kate
