sine die at 4:85 o’clock yesterday after-
noon, after the members had‘become
boys again for a day and thrown paper
balls and books at each other until they,
were tired. -

Mart Kellogg Shocked.
Superintendent Kellogg and a gang
of men are engaged in widening East
avenue at a point near the John F.
° Bennett residence. Yesterday after-
noon, in razing a tree some of the
branches fell across the electric light
wires causing them in. turn to fall on
the trolley wires. Kellogg picked up
one of the wires and besides having his
hand severely burned received a shock
that made his teeth chatter. James
Burns employed on the same work,
stepped on a live wire which burned
entirely through the sole of his shoe,-
and Martin Mulligan anotherpmployee
also received a severe shock from a
wire which happened to be in his way.
Fortunately no one was seriously in.
jured. They afterwards handled the
wires more gingerly.
The Monster Snake.
Some months ago a large snake es-
caped from Barnum & Bailey’s winter
headquarters in Bridgeport, and though
diligent search was made for the mis-
sing reptile, it could not be found.
The woods and swamps within a radius
of twenty miles of the Park City were
scoured by men, but no trace of the
snake could be found and the hunt was
given up. Last Saturday, however,
several residents of Darien came across
unmistakable evidence of the presence
of a monstrous reptile, near Col. Ray-
mond’s place at Five Mile River, and
people in the vicinity have been thrown
into a fever of excitement in conse-
quence. '

EOn. Dudley P. Ely was born in the

years of his buriness life were spent in
New York city, where he secured a
competency. In 1831, he returned to
Connecticut and became a resident of
South Norwalk, where for many years
he was one of the most active and
prominent citizens, and until increas-
ing years requirnd him to lay aside
some of the burdens and responsibili-
ties which his numerous and varied in-
terests had laid upon him. He was the
youngest child of Benjamin Ely, a
prominent citizen of this t1 The

first of the name in England having
come theirs from France. John Ely, a
great uncle of Dudley ,P. Ely, was
colonel of the Third Connecticut regi-
ment in the revolutionary war, and

graved on his sword hilt.
. The first‘American ancef-tvr of Dud-
ley P. Ely was Richard Ely, who arriv-
ed in America about the year 15:30, and
settled in Lyme. Mr. Ely’s maternal

age of fourteen years, when he was sent
to Hartford and took a two years’ course
at Mr. Olneyfs school, a noted institu‘
tion of that day. He then started to
make his'own career- His first employ-
ment was at a store in his native town.
His aptitude and activity were such that
at the age of eighteen years he had plac-
ed in his entire charge and magement a
store in West Hartland. Alter remain-
ing there a year, his ambition led him
to seek his fortune in ‘New York Icity.

After coming to South Norwalk, Mr.
Ely- identified himself with many busi-
ness and public interests. He invested
largely in real estate, and was the
largest owner of real estate property in

hotel block, the largest business block
in South Norwalk. In April 1885, he
was elected president of the First Nat-
ional Bank of South Norwalk, which

death. When South Norwalk was in-
.corporated asa city in 1870, Mr. Ely
was chosen its first Mayor, and was re-
elected to that office fodr subsequent
terms. He was president of the Nor-

twenty years. He was also president
of the South Norwalk Savings bank for
more than ten years. He was the. first

Smashed the Furniture.
.Some time since, John Showell and
his Wife. (colored) parted company,
and John sold his household furniture
to another colored Woman, the wife of
Sydney Smith, who lives on Knight
street. Mr. Showell learned what her
husband had done and last night went
to Mrs. Smith and demanded the fur-
niture. Mrs. Smith refused to return
the same, and said that she 'had paid
for the furniture and proposed keep-
ing it. '
Mrs. Showell threatened her with
arrest and started off in search of an
officer. During her absence Mrs.
Smith took the furniture including a
lounge and stove, out into the street
and smashed it up with an axe. She
then took the bedding and throwing it
into the street set it on fire. ,
Mrs. Showell is very incensed over
the action of Mrl. Smith and will
cause her arrest.
