Conced: d ability and integrity, seem to be in special demand with our’Demo- cratic friends here in Norwalk. For instance, they cast around, like the shrewd politicians they are, for an up- right, honest and popular candidate for mayor and selected,of course, as their best representative man, Lawyer James T. Hubbell. He made a phenominal run and was elected over one of the most active and faithful Republican workers in his party. Then the demo- cracy cast about for a fitting candidate for Judge of Probate and inevitably, all eyes turned to Hubbell, as the one man of all others in their party, to con- test the election with the able and ex- perienced Judge Woodward. Next, the Democracy ‘was in sore need of a first-class man for Senator, and Tues- day they went fishing all around for a candidate. ’l‘heir needs unerringly led them to select Bubbell for that office also. But as our Mayor elect began to feel as Artemus Ward did when the twenty-three Mormon widows urged him to marry them. “Oh, too much, too much,” said Artemus, and so our friend HubbelL sternly resisted the proffered honor. The convention was resolute and decided that if they could not have a Hubbell and a mayor, with a “J. T.” prefix, they would have one with a "W. B.” and an ex-Mayor, for a Hubbell it must be. Therein they showed their apprecration of true merit and good sense. Such is the tribute that politics pays to virtue, and may the best man win. . For Representatives. It is conceded that no one is likely to oppose the unanimous renomination of Mayor E. O. Keeler for representative in the State Legislature, from this end of the town. The caucus is to be held Friday," evening, and will arouse very little specml interest because of the lack of any competitors for the honor which Mr. Keefer has well earned. At South Norwalk, it is reported that quite a spirited rivalry is developing between the friends of Col. Frost and Edito‘rCrowe. Game on the Ghost, Vt’hitelaw Reid, editor _of the New York Tribune, and a candidate for the vice-presidency of the United States in 1892, with Hon. Chauncey M. Depew, president of the New York Central and Hudson River railroad, came down the Danbury division in a private car on the 5:07 train last evening, passing through South Norwalk on their way to New York city—Sentinel. As Editor Reid is in Europe withhis family he must have come down on the “ghost train.” O in Memoriam.

Shortly after 8 o’clOck last night George Wakeman saw smoke issuing from the roof of Capron’s machine shop on Brook street. He called the atten- tion of John C. Carroll to the smoke, and he ran to Hale’s drug store for the purpose of pulling Box 15, but before he got the key Capt. Dann had pulled the box and the fire department with the exception of the truck company, quickly responded to the alarm. After some delay for want of a ladder a stream was put on the fire and it was extin- guished before much damage was done. The fire caught from the chimney, di- rectl y over the boiler. The entire damagewill not be in excess of $50. .0. A Curious Accident.- Mrs. Charles Selleck of East Nor- walk met with a painful and serious ac- crdent on Monday last at her home. She lifted her left foot from the floor and doubled up her leg and as she put it back one of the main cords under her knee snapped, and she sank almost helpless to the floor. Dr. Baker was summoned and-«dressed the wound, which is liable to keep Mrs. Sell'eck confined to the house for several weeks. Demanded $5,000. Mayor Sargent of New Haven was yesterday afternoon visit-ed inhis office by an intoxmated crank, who demanded $5,000 in Cash from the chief executive of the city, but subsequently moderated his demands to the modest sum of ten cents. lie failed to secure either amount, however, and left the office dis- appomted, but Without making any at- tempt at violenCe.

" The Eileenix Steam Fire Engine? Condemned bya State Boiler. inspector. Considerable Business Transacted at the City Council Meeting. It will be learned by many, With no small amount of surprise, that the steam fire engine belonging to the city of N or— walk has been condemned by the state steam boiler inspector, and 1s practi- cally useless. , This fact was first made public at an adjourned meeting of the City Council held Tuesday evening, his Honor Mayor E. O. Keeler and the full board being present. The meeting was called to order shortly after 8 o’clock, and the Mayor gave anopportunity to any person pres- ent to be heard. Chief Engineer Prow- it was present and be it was who “sprung” the surprise of the evening. He said that the steam fire engine be- longing to the City of Norwalk was out of order and had been condemned by the State boiler inspector, and ex- plained the situation by saying that he orderde the steamer out for a “wash” a few days ago, and had found that some- thing was wrong with the boiler, and at the quarters of thesteamer after_the wash, in company With Engineer Aiken had taken the jacket 011' and founda break in a spot on the boiler at a part that had long been known to be a weak place. He then called upon Engineer Aiken who was in the Council room to give a more detailed account of the trouble. The engineer stated that the steamer had not been examined in six years by the State boiler inspector. Ten years ago a new water leg had been placed on her. He had known for some time that the boiler was weak, and was gradually growing worse. He had made monthly examinations himself and considered it safe to run the engine at areduced presure. At the last “wash” he heard an unusual noise about the boiler, and after returning to the house had made a thorough examinationand it. was de- cided to summon the State inspector who found the boiler sheet split open three inches and condemned it. The boiler was 24 years old and one of the oldest, if not the oldest steam fire on- gine boiler now in use in the state. Chief Engineer Prowitt said that he had consulted with the firecommittee of the council and had secured esti- mates for the repair of the steamer as follows: _ Cole Bros, 3850, the transfer of the steamer to be added, making a total cost of $961.60. (This firm built the steamer originally.) - Pacific Iron Works, $775, transfer to be paid by owners, making a total of about $800. . American Fire Engine Co. $891, in- cluding transfer. - ., The two first companies would fur- nish a guarantee for one year and the latter for five years. The Pacrfic com- pany had offered to loan the city a steamer during the absence of the “Phoenix” for repairs. The American Company wOuld fur- nish a new first-class steamer for $3,000 in cash and the old steamer:- He said that he himself thought the offer of the American company the most fa- vorable. ‘ Engineer Aiken remarked that a steel boiler would not last as long as an iron one, and explained by saying that an iron bOiler was not as liable to pit as a steel one would. Said that steel boilers had a record of 10 to 12 years and iron boilers, 15 to 20 years. Chief Prowitt said that the inspector told him that the. engine he condemned had evidently received the best of care else it would not have lasted so long. He explained that some 3600 had been expended on the engine about six years ago. [At this point in the pro- ceedings an alarm of fire was rung in from box 15 and Chief Prowitt, Engin- eer Aiken and Captain Chinery hastily left the room.] ‘ On their return the matter was taken up again. Councilman Chinery of the fire com- mittee then addressed the council, and remarked upon the small expense the fire department was to the city ; there was not a member of the department who was under a salary and they were always ready and willing to save prop- erty from destruction by fire at a no small risk to themselves. He believed that the city ought to be willing to fur- nish all necessary apparatus, and re- commended that a city meeting be called for the purchaSO of a new en- gine, and if this could not be gained, then to have the old steamer put in re- pair. Councilman Adams thought that the matter ought to be laid eve: to the next meeting of the council, and then it could be acted upon more intelli- gently. Councilman Osborn said that the whole matter was a surprise to him as he had, not heard of it until that time. He wOuld favor having the fire com— mittee bring in a unanimous report re- commending either the purchase of a new steamer or advising that the old one be repaired. Believed that after such a report was rendered that a city meeting should be called to act upon the same Chief Prowitt said that something ought to be done at once, and that the steamer ought not be allowed to remain in its present condition. The water pipes in several sections of the town were weak and liable to break, and too, there was a likelihood of a shortage of water in the city pipes, .and the steamer would under such a contingency be found to be of great value. Was in favor of repairing the steamer if a new one could not be secured. Had during a'recent shortage of water been noti- fied to keep the steamer in readiness for immediate use in case of an alarm of fire. The pressure at times on the water pipes was very low. Councilman Wheeler, then, in order that some kind of action might be taken moved that the fire committee be in- structed to have the steamer repaired, at a cost not in excess of $900. The motion was seconded by Councilman Chinery. ' Councilman Adams remarked that this would be impossible as there was not money enough left of the regular appropriation to pay the bill. He favored having, the appropriation made ’at a city meeting. The question of the legality of such an appropriation was referred to Corpo- ration Council Lockwood, who said in brief that he did not see how the money could be legally appropriated if it was not. to the credit of the fire department' . Hartford, died in Oregon leaving con. n The committee might'get a special. ap- propriatiOn as the highway cbmmittee had” fione by-‘legdly‘ advertising the same. 2 ‘ ' _ '1 . : 2 On motionof’Councilman Osborn, 115; was voted that a city meeting be called‘ for Monday afternoon, Oct. 22d, at 3 o’clock for the purpose of appropriating~ an amount sufficient to place the steamer in thorough repair. Bills to the amcunt of $747.55 were ordered paid. . , The bill of Hope Hose company, amounting to $10.60 for taking down the billiard table at their house to allow the erection of electionbooths was, re- ferred to the fire committee wrth power. The bonds of R. N. Morehouse as city sheriff, for $500, with Orrin K. Scofield as surety, and those for $1,000 each of the water commissioners, Treadwell with E. O. Keeler as surety, C. B. Coolidge, with E. K. Lockwood as surety and Frederick Mead With 0. E.'Wilson as surety, were presented, accepted and ordered on file.’ Councilman Adams, chairman of the highway committee, reported that the work on the highways had been about completed for the season; Butlittle more would have to be paid out except for slight repairs, and he also reported that the highway appropriation had about all been expended. He: thought it advisable that more money be appro- priated to be used in an emergency, as would be the case in a blizzard,freshet, etc., and more money ought to be left for use at the opening of the season next year. . Legal notice having been. given, the Council voted the sum of $500 to the highway department. _ Councilman Adams’ resignation as street commissioner was accepted, and Martin Kellogg on the recommendation of Mr. Adams, was elected to fill the vacancy. The election was by ballot, the nominee receiving a unanimous Vote. _ The city clerk was instructed to_ give legal notice asking for an appropriation of 81.600 to the administrative depart- ment. _ Councilman Adams called attention to the dangerous condition of several sidewalks in the city, among others those in froht of property belonging to E. K. Lockwood, Miss Mary Hoyt, and the entire east side of Water street. He also stated that property owners on Leonard street were “ready and Will- ing” to put down walks in front of their respective properties, but ”wouldn’t do it until they had to.” . Councilman Chinery called attention to the poor condition of walks in front of property on Wilton avenue. _ The Corporation Counsel was in- structed to officially notify all such persons whose walks were out of repair- to put them in repair. Councilman Wheeler reported that he had conferred with Superintendent Whitney of the Norwalk & South Nor- walk Electric Light company in the matter of a contract for lighting the city, and that Mr. Whitney would not make a contract for less than three years. He thought a compromise might be made on a two years’ contract. He was instructed by a vote of the Council to make a one year contract with the company from the 1st. of No- vember next. _ ‘ Corporation Counsel Lockwood. said that he had investigated the claim of C. T. Cornwall against the city for damages for the loss of a cow and had found that Mr. Cornwall had no cause for action. . The council then ad,]ourned. .0. Attention Voters.
