In another place in to-day’s GA-
ZETTE, will be found amost intensely -
interesting and thrilling account of
Norwalk’s two absent, but at present,
most distinguished citizen travelers.
Their reported arrival at beautiful Los
Angeles is given in such familiarly mod-
est particularity by the Times of that
eTty, that we are sure B'r. Maples fur-
nished the copy and thus know that the
Times’ enthusiastic statements can be

AWarnlng.
A news item in another column of to-
day’s GAzETTE, shows how dangerously
short our city is of hose, and the neces-
sity of placing the fire alarm wires on
separate poles away from the electric
light and trolley wires.
We sincerely trust that Mayor Hub-
bell will summon Chief Engineer Prow-
itt before the meeting of the Council
to-night and ascertain the facts about
this alleged shortage of hose and dis—
abling of the fire alarm service, and if
it is found to be true, that he and the
Council will at once take action to re-
lieve our city from the serious peril in-
volved in such an unsafe condition.

The Elm Tree Beetles.
The Slorrs Agricultural Experiment
Station has issued the following im-
portant bulletin upon the subject of
how to treat the elm tree beetle posts.
It states that the creature makes its ap-
pearance early infhe spring as soon as ,
The elm trees leaf out. The first sign
' of their work is in small round holes in
she leaves. Ultimately the trees look
@115 they had been peppered with fine
shot. Early in June patches of little
yellow eggs appear on the under side of
The leaves. These increase until toward
the middle of June. Then the beetles
disappear and the eggs hatch out. The
larvae come out of the eggs and destroy
the leaves and then work back from
leaf to twig, to branch, to trunk, to the
ground, about the end of June, and lying
there a week or two come out a fresh
supply of beetles. The remedies ofi‘er-
\ecl are as follows:— _
The life history indicates the practi-
eal steps to be taken in preventing the
ravages of this insect These are spray-
ing with Paris green to poison the
beetles and the larvae, in the latter
part of May and the first of June, and
the destruction of the pupae about the
the base of the trees in July.
Spraying—The trees may be efi'ec-
luallv sprayed by means of a force
pump and spray nozzle with Paris green
at the rate of one pound to 150 gallons
of water, care being taken that the
poison is thoroughly mixed with the
water during the process of spraying.
London purplc will answer nearly as
well as Paris green, but with it should
be mixed an amount of slaked lime
rqual to the quantity of poison used.
in spraying large trees it will be neces—
sary to have a hose 50 to 75 feet or
more in length, which, by using a long
bamboo pole, may be elevated about
twenty feet.
will be necessary to send a man up into
The tree, to direct the spray into the
topmost parts. Fairly good work also
can be done in the top branches by re—
moving the spraying tip and sending a
direct stream into the top of the tree.
he force of the stream being suflicient
to break it up into fine drops.
Destruction of the Pupac—If spraying
is neglected and the pupae are clustered
thickly immediately about the base of
The tree, they may be destroyed by
mechanical means; ornn area of ground
several yards in diameter containing
pupae may be wet with a strong kero—
sene emulsion, or with hot water.
rThese measures against'thc pupae are
instituted, of course, only after the
damage for 11.2. year has been done,
and if they are killed under all the
trees in a given town, there will be no .
beetles to lay eggs the following sea-
son. In this event there will be no
necessity for the more expensive and
elaborate spraying operations. Once
instituted, this method of destroying
the pupze and larvae at- the surface of
the ground should be continued year
after year, and will be very largely ef-
fective in keeping the trees in good
audition.

NSERIOUS CONDITION.
The Norwalk Fire Department
Crippled for the Want of Hose.
Condition.
;.'_"A serious state of affairs in the Nor-
walk Fire Department came to light
during the fire at George H. Water-
bury’s Friday morninglast. .When the
department arrived on the scene they
laid 2,000 feet of hose in order to fight
the fire. This hose was every foot of
serviceable hose that the department
had, and had a conflagrafltion started in
the center of the city or on any other
street not a line of hose could have
been laid and the city would have been
at the mercy of the flames.
Again on Saturday morning, when
fire started in the Jones 8: Hotchkiss
store, the department was in the act of
laying every foot of this 2,000 feet,
when the fire was gotten under control.
Is this safe?
In addition to this serious want of
hose the fire alarm service is in a de-
plorable condition and the sending in
of a correct alarm isnot only a rarity
but a dificulty. The trouble arises from
the fact that the wires are strung upon
the electric trelley poles and the Our-
rent from the trolley wires disarrange
the working of the fire alarm, so that
it is at times impossble to send in an
alarm over the fire alarm wires.
On Saturday morning last when the
fire started in the very heart of the
city an alarm could not be sent in owing
to the grounding of the fire alarm wires
by the trolley wires. Superintendent
Hoyt was obliged to go to a box on
Mill Hill and send the alarm from there,
and even thethen bells in the fire de'
partment houses failed to ring.
These facts have been learned by a
GAZETTE representative, and if true,
the city of Norwalk is certainly in a
serious conditionin case of fire and its
fire department and fire alarm service
greatly handicapped.
Want to Repair lt.
George W. Raymond visited the
Soldiers’ Home at Noroton, Saturday
afternoon, to confer with George H.
Waterbury in reference to the burning
of his house on Friday last. Waterbury
was unable to talk and his condition re-
mains about thc same. ' His brother
Samuel Waterbury, is also at the Home
having been‘sent there from New Can-
aan. There is an insurance of $800 on
Waterbury’s house and it is understood
that the insurance adjusters prefer
making repairs rather than paying the
insurance. The house would hardly
seem to be worth repairing.
Battle of the Tramways.
A fierce battle for rights of way be-
tween our two Norwalk Tramway lines,
is on the tupis before the Legislature
this week. One way in which the East
Avenue Tramway can win the love and
respect of our people, is to inaugurate
a single fare from end to end of its line
the same as the West Avenue line does.
They can also put the most money into
their treasury by such a popular move.
Cheap fares catch the multitudes.

music and during the evening there
wss a grand display of fireworks.
A large number of shore dinners

Wonderful Escape From Death.
This morning as the three-ton tank
wagon of the Standard Oil company
was being driven up Main street, and
when in front of the new store on the
Hoyt property, a man named Michael
Lynch, somewhat under the influence of
liquor, ran out to the wagon, and de-
epite the warning of the driver to keep
ofl, attempted to get up’ on the seat
with him. Lynch in trying to place
wheel in order to get on the seat, fell
in front of the wagon and the forward
wheel passed over the fleshy partEof his
left leg, and above the elbow of his left
Erin.
Before the driver could stop his
horses, the rear wheel passed over
Lynch’s left arm, and he also received
an ugly bruise on the back of his head.
Lynch was assisted to a chair in front
of Keeler’s store, and in a few minutes
after, with Joseph Sheehan and James
McCarthy was able to walk to his home
on Hoyt street, where he was placed on
a bed and his wife,who was out at work,
summoned, but for some unknown
reason a physician was not called imme-
diately.
Those _:who witnessed the accident
thought for a certainty that Lynch was
killed. N o blame is assigned to the
driver of the horses.
Lynch is a laborer and of late had
been employed about the grounds at
the County Children’s Home. It is be-
lieved that his injuries are of a more
serious nature than he thinks for.

They are the Wonder and Admira-

The Los Angeles Times of May 13th,
gives us this delightful intelligenee
concerning our two notable Pacific
coast tourists: '
‘ PROMINENT REPUBLICANS
FROM CONNECTIOUTNOW VISITING scorn-
. EBN CALIFORNIA.
Among prominent arrivals of Eastern
men i, this city on Saturday afternoon,
regist d at the Westminister, were
B. W. Maples and E. J. Hill, of Nor-
walk, Conn. Mr. Maples is editor and
proprietor of the Hour newspaper of
that city, one of the staunch supporters
of Republican principles of that so
often, in the past, doubtful state, when
it was a question of whether Republi-
cans or. Democrats were the right men
to put in the right place. He is also
largely interested in manufacturing
works in Norwalk, so that it maybe
representative man of Connecticut.
Mr. Hill, his compagnon de voyage, is
also one ofthe state’s popular citizens
as was evidenced in the fact that in the
elections of last fall he was elected to
Congress from the Fourth District by a
majority of 6,000 votes over Mr. DeFor-
est, who had twice previously been-
elected to represent that district. It
may also be mentioned in this connect—
ion that. in last year’s elections Con-
necticut further showed evidence of
wisdom by electing another Republican
congressman, Mr. Sperry, by a major-
ity of over 7,000 in‘a district that gave
Mr. Piggott, a Democrat, a similar ma-
jority at the previous elections.
On their way from San Francisco to
this city they stepped off at Mariposa
and took a trip through the Yosemite
Valley. Mr. Maples, in speaking of
their future movements, said that he
and Congre’ssman Hill would probably
remain here until June, visiting, in the
meantime, some of the adjacent cities in
this section, returning north by way of ’
Santa Barbara. From that point they
may go as far as Elwood, and, taking
the stage there, go up by way of the
coast line of the Southern Pacific, tak-
ing in Monterey. At San Francisco
they will determine whether they shall
go to Honolulu by the next steamer,
which leaves'SanFranciscfiMay 21, or
whether they shall return East. One
factor in the programme is that Con-
gressman Hill hasscheduled himself to
leave for EurOpe June 29, and it is
feared that at this late date a trip-to the
islands would notpermit of them set-
ting back in time for Mr. Hill’s depar-
ure... .
The fact that they are in this city at
the present time is the result of an
accident, but it is to be hoped that it i°s
an accident which neither of them will
have cause to regret. When they left
home it was their intention to make the
Hawaiian Islands their objective point,
but railroad delays interfered to an
extent that prevented them catching
the steamer which they intended to
embark on. They left New York
on April 23 for Montreal, at which
point they took the Canadian Pacific
Railway for Mission Junction, thence
to Seattle, where they Were delayed
twenty- two hours, the Oregon and Cali-
fornia train from Portland for San
Francisco not making close connection
with the one from Tacoma. The result
was. they did not reach San Francisco
until the day the Honolulu steamer
left.
Abused His Mother and Sister.
If all the stories of the doings of a
person 1111de Robert Anderson, be
true, and they seem to be well authen-
ticated, he is {deserving of a long term
in jail if not in States prison. His
mother Mrs. Mary Anderson and his
sister a widow named Mrs. Lizzie Mc-
Carthy live in two rooms, on Grant
street, just off from Belden avenue.
Saturday night he visited his mother’s
home in an intoxicated condition and
as he did not succeed in getting what
money he wanted knocked her down
and in falling she struck her head on
the stove and received a severe bruise
and burn on her neck. He then turned
his attention to his sister and hurled a'
salt-cellar at her which struck her
over the eye causing a bad gash.
Mrs. McCarthy then made complaint
to Grand Juror John H. Hoyt who re-
ferred her to the police, and Constable
Hunt was detailed to arrest Anderson,
which he did, but experienced consider-
able trouble in landing him in the lock-
up.,
Anderson resisted and rather than
strike him with his club Hunt called
upon John Cahill for assistance. A
crowd followed the officer and his pris-
oner, and interfered so far as they
dared in the arrest, and that some of
them/escaped arrest Was only due to
leniency on the part of the officer.
This is not Anderson’s first offence of
abusing his mother and sister, but he
has previouslyman aged to escape prose-
cution. .
