The Mill hill profile prepared by
Engineer Wood, attracted the atten-
tion of the Burgess es, last evening, prior
to the opening of the meeting. It was
seen that the prospective cutting down,
sewer changes and threatened damages
to property owners at the foot Of the
hill would necessitate the expenditure
of quite a sum Of money, but the im-
provement seems to be one Of those
that must be had, no matter what the
cost.

As Mr. Charles W. Hoyt is an incor-
rigible old bachelor and his sister is
the wife Of Mr. James J. Scofield, the
above item is a little worse “mixed”
than the GAZETTE erroneous statement,
given its reporter by one Of our bor-
ough officers, that the woman who
suicided at Winnipauk was the same
who had her children taken from her
by the police and which caused the
esteemed Sentinel to rear itself on its
hind legs and bray at the GAZETTE for
two days, The fact is the most careful-
ly edited newspapers fall into such er—
rors, and it is the extreme of silliness
to carp at them, as soon or late the crit-
ic gets into the soup himself as the Sen-
tinel has done.

Hose Purchase Consultation.
After the Burgesses’ meeting last
evening, the fire committee and War-
den Keeler had an informal talk in the
court room with Mr. Edward A. Street,
representing the Maltese Cross hose-
manufacturing company of New York,
and with the representatives Of‘ other
hose manufactories. Among others
present were Messrs. G. A. Franke,
and D. S. Curtis. While the price is
higher for the Maltese Cross, or car-
bolized rubber hose, than for the other
.kinds under consideration, much was
said in its favor, especially by Mr.
.Franke, who once purchased a few
hundred feet of it for the use Of the de-
partment as has been heretofore stated
in the GAZETTE, and the same has suc-
cessfully met every test. While the
discussion was interesting no conclu-
sion was arrived at. The committee,
however, will not long defer giving an
order.

WHAT MISS SPINSTER SAYS:
That Mrs. Groesbeck, of St. Paul,
arrived Saturday, night for an extended
visit with her parents Mr. and Mrs.
William G. Thomas-on East avenue.
. That Miss Winnie Hanford, Of East
Norwalk, will finish her art studies at
the Cooper Institute for the season this
week.
That it is announced that the summer
girl who will go out in a canoe with
you, the girl who will go Ofi' on an all
day picnic with you, and the girl who
won’t go anywhere with you without a
chaperon, will all go to the favorite
summer resorts this season. This in-
cludes about all the choice varieties.
That our lovely Norwalk girls are the
embodiment of the grandest mechanism
of creation. .
That the Georgia fisherman who "re-
cently reported hooking an eel to which
was attached a white-headed turtle
weighing 300 pounds is now said tohave
carried his bait in a flask like so many
of our Norwalk amateur fishermen.
That there is a strong sentiment
growing among the women that Mrs.
S. Hubbard Barnes has been unfairly
treated, and many express the wish
that she may succeed in getting her
just dues.
That it is not always the most devo-
tiOnal in a congregation that most lib-
erally respond to a call for funds.
That repentance has many counter-
feits. '
That I went to church Sunday, this
is not a rare thing for me to do.eithe.r,. .
and in front of me sat two very p'rettyit
and very devout yOung women chew-s .
ing gum. That young women usheredi
into the world with an innate know-
ledge Of the rules of etiquette should
surely know better than to offend in
this manner.
COURT OF BURGESSES. "
The Fire Committee Authorized to
"' Purchase the New Hose.
The Special meeting Of the borough
Court, held last evening pursuant. to
notice for the purpose of taking definite
action respecting the purchase of the
3,000 feet of hose- authorized by vote
, bf the special borough meeting, was?
.{called to order at 8 o’clock by Warden
I «Keeler. Present, Burgesses .Bowe,
, Burr, Buxton; Kent, O’Reilly and Van-
derhoef. »
I The call for the meeting was read by
:Clerk Warner, after which Burgess
Bowe remarked that he would like to :
see the hose purchase placed where iti
,belonged and moved that the fire com-
'.mittee of the Court of Burgesses be
;; authorized to purchase 3,000 feet of
hose for the use of the fire department. ‘
Burgess Buxton inquired whether
the Court of Burgesses could take such
action.
Clerk Warner re plied in the affirma- I
tive. ‘ . ,
The question then arose whether th
order for hose already sent in had been
. countermanded, and this query was al-~
so answered afiirmatively. _
Burgess O’Reilly pertinently said
that if it had not been necessary to re-
fer the question of such purchase of the
hose to a special borough meeting the
- matter would properly have been re-
; ferred to the fire committee, and if the
committee were not esteemed compe-
tent it would be well to appoint anoth-
er one. He closed his remarks by sec-
onding the motion.
The question having been put was
carried unanimously, and the hose will
be purchased by Burgesses Burr, Bux-
ton and O’Reilly. _°"- ;- .
Burgess Vanderhoef’s \motion that
the fire committee be requested~ to con-
fer with Chief 'PrOwitt, for obvious
reasons stated, was carried, .. Warden
Keeler giving the deciding vote. ‘ Bur-
gesses Burr and Bowe took the ground
that Chief Prowitt .had not Consulted
with the board in the matter Of his ap-
pointment of a fire alarm superintend-
ent; that .he had studiously ignored
the Court Of BngesSes, etc. ’
At 8.15, on motion of- Burgess Van-
derhoef the Court adjourned till next
Monday night.

Our Popular Postmaster.
Last evening a DAILY GAZETTE rep-
resentative noted a praiseworthy act :by
our worthy Postmaster Hubbell, but it
was really only one of a series unosten4
tatiously performed almost daily by
the same individual. On the early eve-
ning train a young and prepossessing
Swede arrived in town with two im-
mense satchels and other personal prop-
erty. He arrived in New York from
Stockholm yesterday, couldn’t speak a
word of English, and the only clew to
his identity was a scrap of paper bear-
ing the name Of Nils Gustaf Larsen,
and something else which was quite
undecipherable. Almost simultane-
ously with his. arrival came a letter ad-
dressed to “Nils Gustaf Larsen.” But
Postmaster Hubbell took the case in
hand with his customary promptness
and after vainly.trying to find a Swede
in our business settlement, took the
young man down town where a Swede
girl worked whom he knew, and an
hour or so later the girl took the young
man to Mr. Larsen who lives in South
Norwalk. When the young stranger
found somebody with whom he could
converse his joy was boundless, and it
was apparent from his farewell greet-
ing to Mr. Hubbell that he fully appre-
ciated that gentleman’s labors in his
behalf.

,24th,
EAST AWILROIID. I
The Delay in its Completion Ex-
' ' ,Dlalned.
During the past few weeks the ques-
tion has frequently been asked, “What
has become of the Norwalk Tramway
Company?” In reply, permit .me to
say, that it is alive'and patiently wait-
ing the slow march of borough progress.
Heartily received and encouraged by
the city and town authorities, recog-
nized by the Court of Burgesses of
1889, so far as its charter powers com-
:pelled recognition, it proceeded to se-
cure its location and grade, made a sur-
vey of its route from Greenwood’s
store at the foot Of Spring Hill, through
Belden avenue, Wall street, East ave-
nue,‘ Van Zandt avenue, Washington
and South Main streets to the corner of
Woodward avenue, South Norwalk,
with a branch over the Shore roadto
Benedict Farm. Its projectors then
called for bids for the construction
and equipment Of a first-class electric
railway over this route and received
what to them appeared to be very satis-
factory offers.
While this work was being done last
year, the borough began extensive im-
provements and alterations of the
grades on East avenue, and the town
voted to greatly modify Van Zandt
avenue and the Fort Point road. By
the terms of the layout given by the
authorities, the company was to accept
the grade Of the streets as they might
be found at the time Of the construc-
tion of the road. By the terms Of the
charter, any change .Of grade on the
track line compelled a change by the
company of the entire width of the
street. The company found itself in
this position, therefore : Either com-
pelled to await events, or to build its
road with a certainty that more than
one half Of its track and over-head con—
struction would have to be rebuilt
within a year or to burden itself with
an unnecessary expenditure of a large
sum Of money at the very outset. In
addition, the changes and line propesed
by the borough near the residence Of
W. H. Earle involved the taking of
private property, which the company
could not do even if the expenditure
were justified. Some opposition has
been expressed in your columns to the
construction of an electric railroad.
Census Bulletin No. 55, issued April
shows that although electric
motive power has a history in this coun-
try Of only six years, yet one-fourth of
all the street railways in the United
States are now Operated in that way,
and that practically no horse railroads
are now being built. That this system
is in its experimental stage is admitted
by all, but should this company build
a horse railroad this year or next, its
underground construction would cer-
tainly be made with a view to the use
of electricity in the near future.
The Norwalk Horse Railway Com-
pany has now and for many years has
enjoyed the right to build and Operate
a railway On East avenue, but the ten
per cent. grade of Mill Hill has been
an effectual bar to its profitable use.
The same cause will be equally preven-
tive in the use of animal power by the
N orwalk Tramway Company. Permit
me to say that the gentlemen compos-
ing that company do ' not propose to
forfeit their charter rights. If the bor-
ough does not see fit to reduce the
grade of Mill Hill and thus make it
possible to operate a horse railroad or
if on the other hand it proposes to op-
poise electricity, wherein is the only
available method Of Sui-mounting it,
then the company will be compelled to
so act that the terms of the charter will
'be complied with and its privileges
made perpetual by the construction
within the time fixed by the legislature
of “at least one mile of road,” and with
the hearty approval Of the authorities
and citizens of South Norwalk and East
Norwalk, those communities will be
tied together by cheap and quick
transit. The delay is not because of
lack Of capital. Outside Offers of funds
have been refused again and again.
The money is here to build the road,
but the directors Of the company be-
lieve that it is for the best interest of
the whole town that the whole road
should be built and at present are
patiently waiting for the borough to
come to the same conclusion and act
accordingly. . E. J. HILL.

Who Knows About This ?
On page 259 in Vol. IV. of President
John Adams’ Memoirs, occurs this 10-
cally interesting note :—
“In travelling from Boston to Phil-
adelphia in 1774-7, I had several times
amused myself at Norwalk, in Connect-
icut, with the very curious collection
of birds and insects of American pro-
duction made by a Mr. Arnold, a col-
lection which he afterwards sold to
Governor Tryon, who sold it to Sir
Ashton Lever, in whose apartments in
London I often afterward viewed it
again.”
Librarian Hoadly has written Rev.
C. M. Selleck requesting that he find
out, if possible, who'this Mr. Arnold,
Norwalk’s early naturalist was and
whether he has left any descendants or
other personal history behind him.
Can any Of our aged citizens recall
this man and his singular tastes and
work, if so the DAILY GAZETTE would
be more than glad to make it public.

WILTON.
Our Wilton correspondent ssnds us
word that yesterday morning a horse
and business wagon was found astray
in Hurlbutt street, in front Of Charles
Holmes’ place. The horse was a thin,
light sorrel and had on part Of an old
harness, the balance being attached to
the wagon, which had become wedged
between the hitching post and fence,
the horse having pulled himself clear
of it. In the wagon wasa medicine case
with the name of “Dr. Todd” on it,
engraved on a plate, and a hand satchel
filled with physician’s implements. A
bag in the wagon had the initials “H.
M., Ridgefield,” on it. Mr. James
Bedient telegraphed the find to Branch-
ville, but as yet no claimant has ap-
peared. The property is supposed to
belong to Dr. Todd of Bidgefield.
