Our Omnipotent Nationality.
It is quite probable that many of the
general newspaper readers have simply
noted the fact that the Supreme Court
of the United States, in its recent de-
cision oft-he Debs case, has remanded
Bobs to obey the sentence that imposes
six months’ imprisonment for disobe-
dience to the judicial decree of - the
United States Court of Illinois. A
careful study of the opinion as given by
the court without a single dissent,
would convince any intelligent citizen
that it is one of the most important de-
liverances ever made by the highest
judicial tribunal of the nation. The
following extract from_the opinion of
the court is well worthy the sober con—
sideration of every citizen of the lie-7
public : ‘, .
“There is no such impotency in the
national government, The entire
strength of the nation may be used to
enforce in any part of the land the full
and free exercise of all national powers
and the security of all rights intrusted
by the Constitution to its care. If the
emergency arises, the army of the
Nation and allits militia are at the
service of the Nation to compel obedi-
ence to its laws. .
We hold that the Government of the
United States is one having jurisdiction
over every foot of soil within its terri‘
iory, and acting directly upon each
citizenf that, while it is a government _
of enumerated powers, it has Within ‘
the limits of those powers all’the at—
tributes of sovereignty. No wrong,
real or fancied, carries with it legal
warrant to invite, as a means of redress, ‘
the cry-operation of amob, with its ac-
companying acts of violence.”
When Presiden Cleveland summoned
the regular army to Chicago to suppress
the riotous destruction of property and
prot:ct lives from violence, he did one
Of the boldest executive acts ever per-
formed by any President. It will rank
proclamation against South Carolina,
and Lincoln’s emancipation proclama-
tion during the war. In a single sen-
tence he efiaced' from the pOlitics of the
Republic the lingering dregs of State
Sovereignty which survived the war.
But his powers under the Constitution
were questioned by such anarchist
sympathizers as Governor Altgeld and
others. It is this issue that has made
the decision in the Debs case of supreme
importance. It will be seen that the
highest courtof the nation has, ’by a
unanimous judgment, vindicated Presi-
dent Cleveland’s action to maintain the
public peace under all circumstances
when necessary.
The court not only declared that “the
army of the Nation and all its militia.
are at the service of the Nation to com-.
pel obedience to its laws,” but it adds
that the Government of the United
States “has jurisdiction over every foot
of soil within its territory and acting
directly upon eechcitizen; that while
it is a government of enumerated pow-
ers, ithas within the limits of those
poWors, all the attributes of sovereign-
ty.”
During the more than a century
of the exisfence of the Republic no
suc‘I decision has ever come from the
Supreme Court of the United States.
What it harlsojbroadly decided with ab-
solute unanimity, has been questioned
in our 1.Oliticil contests with more or
less earres‘tness, until the-Supreme
Court has finally ended all present ancL
future controversey on the issue by
clotting the government with the high-
est attributes ot nationality and sover-
eignty.

Alpha Wheel Club Events.
About 2,000 people assembled at the
Fair Grounds, Saturday afternoon to
witness the bicycle event-s run off under
the auspices of the Alpha Wheel club.
wThere were ten events but they were
not as exciting as it was expected they
would be,owing possibly to the fact that
there were so few Norwalk men to start
in the different races. Taken together
with the morning 10-milc handicap road
race the Alphas have 'reason to feel
satisfied and the public gratified. The
Street Railway service to the Fair
Grounds was excellent and passengers
were‘transported without delay.

TWO BOlSJlllOWNED.
Little Howard Johnson and Josie‘
Guarnleri the Victims. '. '.
L
Both Bodies Recovered.
The first drowning the GAZETTE has
to report this season is a double one
and occurred late yesterday afternoon,
the victims being two boys less than 11
years of age. >
Early in the afternoon, Lewis P.
Johnson, who lives at No.38 Water
street, and is employed at Leonard’s
coal yard, went to Westport, leaving
his wife and two children, Howard,
aged 11 years,vand the other aged5
years at home.
After her husband’s departure Mrs.
Johnson wont to Boton Point leavriig‘
Howard in the care of a. Mrs. Hendricks.
She returned from the Point 'about7
O’clock, and almost her first inquiry,
was 'as to where Howard was. She
looked about and called for him but
received no response. A short time
after Mr Johnson came home and was
advised of the boy’s absence, but as it
was then only 8 o’clock no special
alarm was felt at the boy’s absence.
Nine O’clock came and then the father
thought that something had happened
'his son and he started out to make a
thorough search for him, but without
finding him.
He then became thoroughly alarmed
and went on to Chapel street. when he
met some boys who said that they
had seen Howard in company with a
boy named Josie Guarnieri near the
railroad freight depot about 5 o’clock,
and that they were going in bathing.
Mr. Johnson then asked. Mr. William
Adams who lives on Water street, to
accompany him and together they went
to the edge of the creek and walked up
the water as they walked along the
shore. In about a foot of water, lying
on his stomach on the muddy bottom,
Mr. Adams discovered the body of poor
little Howard. By this time others had
joined the searching party and Mr.
Johnson was led from the scene.
It was then about ten o’clock. The ,
body was taken from the water as it lay
close to the shore, and was placed on
the depot platform, and Coroner Burke
summoned, who said that the boy had
been dead fully four hours. ‘
A few feet from where the body was
found and. close under some rocks,
bundled up, was the unfortunate boy’s
of another boy. It was then learned
that the Johnson boy7 was accompanied
by Josie. the 9 year Old son of Mrs."
fora Guarnieri, who lives in and owns
what is known as the “long building,”
on Water street, and the second pile of
garments were recognized as his.
The Guarnicri boy’s mother, who up
to that time supposed that her son was
somewhere about the house. was uoti:
fled, and a search was commenced along
the shore near by for that boy’s body
who it was believed had met the same
fate as-the Johnson boy.
James Kelly secured a garden take
and getting into hisboat made a care-
ful examination of the channel and about
11 o’clock one of the forks of the rake
struck a body which on being brought
to the surface proved to be that of little
Guarnieri. It was found in about five'
feet of water. It was lifted into the
boat and brought ashore and later taken
to his home. The body was discovered

An interesting ,Evant. ’
A public meeting is to be held I‘hurs-
Iday evening Of this week at the First
Congregational church, in the interest
of the famous Hampton school. No
admission is charged and only n. collec—
tion to be taken up in behalf of the
noble charity at the end of the service.
The public are cordially invited to at,-
tend. Mr. C. P. Huntington, the great
Pacific railroad magnate and public
ph‘ilantropist, has donated, first and
last, $100,000 to this beneficient insti-
tution. ’ ,
The work of the school for the two
races will be presented, showing what
Hampton is doing to help solve the
problems of the South and West. One
of the Indian graduates, who has had
experience in teaching among her peo-
ple, will speak of the Indian life, and
of Hampton’s work for her race. The
Hampton Quartette of colored students
will be present to sing their plantation
melodies. I
Living Whist.
In these days of fade and functions of
every kind there is no entertainment
so thoroughly enjoyable, with its varied
features, as the Living Whist perform-
ance to be presented by and under the
management of W. G. Nowell at Hoyt’s
Opera. House on the evenings of Wed-
nesday, Thursday and Friday, June 19,
20 and 21. This entertainment and the
, alive direction crowded the Auditorium
at Bridgeport for. over a. week. Living
Whist will be represented strictly by
. our home talent who have been actively
rehearsing it of late. Living Whirt
portrays the card game of that name,
cards being represented by ladies and
gentlemen. The kaleidiscopic effects
. as they move about in dance and play
makes a. spectacle of marvelous beauty.
Other features of the entertainment
each night, will be the appearance of
Miss Grace Maud Brownsou, the talent-
ed elocutionist, lately graduated from
Emmerson’s Boston School of Oratory
and Physical culture. The young lady
is possessed of a very Winsome person-
ality and her recitations are accepted
as being incomparably excellent and
worthy all enconiums which have
greeted them, '
Trolley Accident.
There was an accident on the Tram-
way line yesterday afternoon. about 5
o’clock, and while no lives were lost
several persons were seriously injured.
The Roton Point car with a trailer at-
tached, both filled with passengers,
reached the Washington street bridge
and attempted to pass over the draw.
The motor car-ran onto the draw all
right but when the forward wheels of
the trailer struck the bridge lheyjump-
ed the tracks throwing the car up
against the iron work of the draw.
Conductor Mort. Hosted, who was in-
jured a short time ago, was caught be-
tween the car seats and the iron bridge
and severely squeezed. Mrs. J. C.
Newkirk was quite severly bruised and
(Clara Olcutt, the cook at Mrs. ,L.
.Fiset’s, 98 East avenue, was thrown to
the roadway and her spine injured. A
number of other passengers Were cut
and bruised but Miss Olcuit and Cons
about twenty feet,from where the John-
son boy was found.
t is understood that the Guarnieri
boy was an adept swimmer but that
Johnson could not swim. At the time
the drowning is supposed to have oc-
curred it was nearly high tide, but the
mystery. The strangest part of the
same is that if either of the boys made
an outcry as they naturally would if
drowning, that the cry was not over-
heard, asthere are people living near
by, and there is usually quite a. number
or persons passing at that time of the.
day.
The Johnson boy was a member of
the Grace church Sunday school, and
in Mrs. William H. Smith’s class, and
attended yesterday. A funera prayer
service will be conducted by Rev. S.
H. Watkins at the boy’s home On Water
street at 8 o’clock this evening. The
remains will be taken to Bedford, N.
Y., for burial, to-morrow morning.
Howard, for a, year or more has been
‘ on the list of the GAZETTE 'ncwsboys,
and was one of the brightest and most
active them all.
