From the report of the proceedings of the hastily called meeting of the Board of School Visitors held Satur- day evening, published elsewhere in to-day’s GAZETTE, and the reported exhaustion of the $5,000 appropriated for the maintenance of evening schools for one hundred days, the tax-payers of Norwalk should, without delay, de- mand that a town meeting be held, in order that they may learn where and to whom this money has gone. In ad- dition to this they should be given a chance to ascertain why and by whom their order to the Selectmen not to pay teachers unless approved by the School Visitors is disregarded. They should also know who paid B. W. Maples $500 out of this appropriation, and by whose authority it was done. If the statements made at this meet- ing of the School Board be true—and there is no doubt of their correctness ——it is due to the Selectmen themselves that, instead of. a star-chamber agree- ment to pay the further expenses of the evening schools, they call a town meet- ing and explain their expenditure of $2,397.97 in seven days, as well as the unlawful payment of money to Mr. Maples. By all means, gentlemen, clear your skirts of this new scandal, and do it in such a manner that the lowest as well as highest tax—payer will under- stand where every dollar has gone. -..__‘ . '~——-——._——~ Six Weeks of Delfate. It is intimated that the debate upon the Wilson tariff bill. when it finally comes up in the Senate, will continue for about six weeks. It is to be re- gretted on many accounts that the bi] could not be put in proper shape and disposed of in less time, but Senators are entitled to be heard on a measure of such commanding importance, and there is little or no danger that attempts will be made to prolong the discussion for more purposes of delay. Six weeks is a good while in a case of life and death, but as the country has survived nearer twelve than six months of anxious uncertainty in regard to revenue and financial legislation, it will probably manage to survive a month or two longer. The general features of the bill are pretty well understood, but in some important respects the final outcome remains in doubt, and not until this doubt is relieved, one way or the other, is business likely to get fairly on its feet again and begin to shape itself to \thc new conditions that await it in the early summer. It is not probable that the bill will meet the expectations of all reformers, or of all'sections, or all interests. No tariff bill of that high standard of per- fection has ever been enactedr The best that can be hoped of it is that it will make ample provision for the rev- enues of the government, and in so doin' incidentally care for industries that are entitled to reasonable pro- tection . If it were still possible to eliminate from it the income tax provisions, we are well assured, says the Washington Post, that the welfare of the country were better served. -The determin- ation to retain this odious feature is apparently insuperable, however, and the people will have to settle with Con- gress for the results. All,past experi- ence shows, all considerations of sound policy combine to indicate, that this legislation, unjust, discriminating, and inquisitorial as it is, can never become popular or effectively answer its in? tended purpose. ’ THE MONEY mun ‘NEERLY THE ENTIRE IIP- PROPRIIIIION MADE BY THE TOWN ' EXPENDED. EDITOR MAPLES DEMANDED FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR HIS SERVICES, AND IHE SE- LEGTMEN PAID HIM. Not a Theory, But a Fast Con- fronts the Taxpayers. AN ITEMIZED ACCOUNT PROM- lSED BUT NOT RECEIVED. The Town Must Pay $1000 More to Get $900 From the State. The inevitable has at last happened and the tax payers of Norwalk will now have an opportunity to look into the expenditures for evening schools and ascertain if they can where, when and how their money has been spent and into what capacious maw nearly $2,500 of their :55, 000 appropriation has fallen. At a town meeting held on Thursday, December 28, 1893, $5,000 was appro- priated to defray the necessary expense of establishing and maintaining even- ing schools, and the Selectmen were authorized and directed to borrow on the credit of the town, any sum or sums necessary to defray the expense of said schools, not to exceed that amount. At this meeting the threat- ened war between the Selectmen and Board of School Visitors was obviated and the schools were placed in charge‘ of the school board, and on January 2, the evening schools, which had been closed on account of an injunction placed upon the Selectmen by J. Don- ovan, Jr., were Opened, and have been running ever since. . Last week members of the Board of School Visitors were astonished at re- ceiving notice that but $484.43 of the $5,000 appropriated remained and un- less steps were at once taken to provide more funds the schools could not run after this week. 2 A hurried meeting of the Board of School Visitors was held at South Nor- walk Saturday night, at which time facts and figures were given that nearly upset several members of the board, while others who had suspected some- thing of the sort looked on and won- dered. At this meeting a. report was made that the Selectmen during the seven days that they had had charge of the schools had expended $2,397.97. When this fact was made known to the board several of the members doubted its correctness, but it was stated that the Selectmen had furnished 'these figures and there could be no doubt about it. When inquiry was made if an itemized account had been furnished the board were informed that the clerk of the Board of Selectmen had promised to furnish an itemized account that day, but that very shortly after making the promise he had taken the train for New York to spend Sunday, conse- quently it was not obtained. It was also stated that this amount expended by the Selectmen did not cover all of the expense incurred by them as several bills contracted by their order or through their agent, had been paid by the School Visitors. Nor was this all of the surprises in store for the board. A report was made that notwithstanding the fact that at the town meeting above rc~ ferred to, it was voted that “nothing should be paid for the services of any teacher not approved by the board of school visitors,” the Selectmen had paid B. W. ll aples $500 for his services as principal without the knowledge or consent of the School Visitors and in direct opposition to the vote of the tax payers of the town, and without Mr. Maples ever having had had a certifi- cate from the board as the law directs. It was further stated by one of the members that he had inquired of the clerk of the board of Selectmen why this money had been paid to Maples and the only reason he could obtain was because Maples had demanded it and it had been paid. Prior to this Mr. Maples had been to J. H. Light’s office for the purpose of smoothing over the difficulty and getting a certifi- cate, so that he could be paid, and had then and there been refused, but it seems that this had played no part with the Selectmen, for they had paid the money over without a protest. Following is the order for $500,which was given to Mr. Maples by the Select- men for his services as principal of the evening schools. From the fact that all three of the Selectmen signed this order it would appear that it was under- stood between them that Mr. Maples was to be paid, the vote of the tax pay- ers of the town to the contrary not- withstanding. It is understood that Mr. Baker knew all about this pay. ment, but that Mr. Raymond stated to a member of the Board of School Visi- tors that he knew nothing about the payments made for the expenses of the evening schools.

When questioned as to the three names of the Selectmen being on the order given to Mr. Maples, which is an unusual thing, Mr. Raymond said that the orders were signed in blank by the other two and that Mr. Baker in a whisper asked him to sign this order with his associates and he did so. It is stated upon good authority that shortly after the town meeting was held in December last, the attorney for the town told Mr. Maples in the presence of the Selectmen that the res- olution containing the clause that no money should “be paid for the services ' of any teacher not approved by the board of School Visitors,” was intend- ed and prohibited the payment of money to him, which statement should have been sufficient to have prevented the Selectmen from paying Mr. Maples without the consent of the board of School Visitors. To prevent the closing of the even- ing schools before running one hun- dred nights and thus jepardize the money which the town will be entitled to, the board at their meeting Satur- day night, appointed gEomrnittce con- sisting of Messrs. Adams, Blanchard, Mead and Keith to meet the Selectmen at 4 o’clock this afternoon ‘to investi- gate the expenses and to endeavor to get them to pay the necessary bills of the schools until a hundred nights sessions have been held. If this can; not be done a town meeting will have to be held in order to appropriate at least $1,000 more. In either case the tax payers will now be required to pay out 31,000 to obtain $900 from the state, as the average number of pupils in attendance at the schools will not ex- ceed three hundred. How the Selectmen could have ex- pended 32,397.97 in seven days it is im- possible to conceive, as there were but the Center, Over River, East Norwalk and Winnipauk schools in operation, the'latter school being open but four nights. The School Visitors have been running the schools ever since January 2, and besides paying several old bills not contracted by them, they" have spent but a trifle over $2,000. ..‘ ¢.>__ ___-, ...... The Mutual Life. The Mutual Life‘Insurance company of New York celebrated the fiftieth year of its existence in 1893, and the event will be memorable as being one of the most successful in a business point of view that the company has ever experienced. , The report for 1893 demonstrates the increasing popularity of The Mutual Life and the extension of the benefits conferred upon those fortunate enough to hold its policies. The assets now amount in the aggregate to $186,707,- 680.14, and the liabilities to $168,755,- 071.23. The surplus fund for the pay- ment of dividends and to insure the policy-holder against every possible fu- ture emergency amounts to 317,952,- 608.91, and is a sum which. if added - to the enormous amount paid out in divi- dends to policy holders in past years would largely exceed the surplus accu- mulations of any similar institution in the world. During 1893 the policy-holders in The Mutual Life Ineurance company re- ceived 820.885.472.40, against $19,386.- 532.46 in 1892, The Mutual Life has ' new policies in force insuring $803,284,- 738.46. , In this report only policies issued and paid for are included. -—————-*-—<’ The Deadly Cigarette.

Last fall during the Danbury fair the police of. that city ordered several black - legs hanging about the fair to leave town. They came to South'Norwalk on the noon train and procured dinner at F. A. Lane’s restaurant in the depot. During their stay One of the number- flim-flammed Mr. Lane out of $10, but he recovered the money before the thief could escape. On Saturday he re- ceived another visit from a young man whom he recognized as one of his cus- tomers last fall., This time another game was played-but like the former “it was misoarried.‘ When the 2:25 train arrived from the east Saturday after- noon, a smooth faced well dressed young man alighted at the depot and entered the reslaurant and ate his lunch. Later in the evening he returned and ate a sandwich and had another placed in a paper bag. ’lhe restaurant was well filled at the time and Mr. Lane and his assistant, William Taylor. were busy waiting upon customers, and. although the young man stood near an open desk in which Mr.Lane kept three tin money boxes, they did not apprehend any trouble. Suddenly‘Mr. Lane glanced towards the desk and was surprised to find that the young man and the three tin boxes had disappeared. Hastily calling to Taylor, Mr. Lane came out from behind the lunch counter and ran out of the door. Glancing across the street ”he? saw a man with an overcoat on his arm just stepping on the walk in front of George Schaub’s restaurant. Running across the street, Mr. Lane demanded his boxes. The thief, as it proved to be, made a .dash towards the depot,’ intending to jump aboard the 7.15 train for‘fiNew York, just starting, and far Ithch he had previously purchased a ticket, but his plans were frustrated by the appearance of Taylor, Mr. Lane’s assistant, who had come out of the restaurant, and was on the platform. ~ As the thief came towards the depot Taylor made for him, but the thief turned and dashed down the tracks toward Monroe street, with both Mr. Lane and Taylor in close pursuit. Finding his pursuers gaining upon him-,ihe man made a dive under a freight car, but Taylor was too quick for him and grabbed him by the neck. Mr. Lane at the same time catching" him by one leg. Wher. he fell he dropped the boxes together with his overcoat. He was quickly pulled out from under the-car, and while Mr. Lane secured his boxes, which contained 3561,61, Taylor march- ed him back to the depot, where he was soon placed under arrest and locked up. Strange to say, his_over- coat could not be found, and 1t 18 sur- mised that he either had a confederate who secured if, else it was stolen by some one in the crowd which had con- gregated. » - ' - The former theory is beheved to be the correct one, as 0.» R. -Mumford noticed three suspicious characters looking in the ticket office window, and notified the ticket agent to be on the lookout, while a lady who came from New York on the 6 27 train that even- ing, had her attention attracted by the strange conduct of a young man who was peering through the window of the depot restaurant. _ When brought befOre Justice Bar- rett this morning the prisoner gave 1118' name as James Hayden and his resi- dence California.

She was commanded by Antoine Salini, an enemy of the Haytian re- public. l‘he Natalie was built at Gregory’s Point several years ago by Captain George S; Bell for the. late Major George Mallory, of Bridgeport. _She was a 29 ton steam yacht rigged With a patent propeller wheel .and was steered without a rudder.
