The Louden "Case.

William Louden,the Winnipauk thug
is looted beh1nd the bars at the station
house. It now remains to be seen
whether he is to be allowed to terrorize

. the residents of_Winnipauk or whether

he is to serve a good round sentence in
jail. He has been surrendred by his
bond for assaulting William Joseph and
wife and he has since resisted alrest and
assaulted a constable of the town.- If
Judge Hubbell does'ias the public would
have him do, he will send London to
jail for a term that will keep him away
from town until after snow flies.

CivxiizationMusr Rule.

It is high time that the civilized gov-
erhments of the world should unite and
make common cause to enforce the
humanities of our civilization in every
home of the barbarian. Half a century
ago there might have been some ex-
cuse for tolerating the deliberate butch--
cry of Christians by Turks and of
missionaries by Chinese, but that per-
iod has passed forever.

There have been frightful atrocities

 

, perpetrated recently against Christians

in several barbarian or semi-barbarian
countries, without any dec1ded action
being taken by the great civilized na-
tions of the earth. This is simply fail-
ure to perform a plain and imperious
duty, and every civilized nation whose
citizen is butchered or injured by such
brutalities of the barbarian, shou‘d pre-
emptorily demand atonement from the
government in! which such cruelties
have been perpetrated, and enforce it
atihe point'of theobayonet if necessary.

Connecticut’s Bounty Record.

In'discussing the agitation over the
bounty law passed by thelastlegisla-
ture, the Norwich Bulletin remarks:

“Undoubtedly many veterans in the
state haven wrong idea of the law

 

passed,
bounty for all soldiers honor ably dis-
charged instead of providing for the
payment of unpaid bounties pledged
by town: to soldiers during the war,
1116. long since made uncollectable by
the statute of limitations.

This resume of the bounty-giving era
shows how generous the people were to
enlisted men, and that they gave so lav~
ishly that the legislators found it nec-
essary to prohibit town bounties, and to
confine the offer of bounties to those
who should enlist to the state, and to
keep them uniform, but some of the
towns paid no attention to this law, and
toward the close of the war their illegal
acts were made valid, hence in such
towns if bouniies promised have not
been paid under the present law they
are collectable. ,

There will be many more claims
made for bounties than will ever be
paid, because of the inability of the
applicants to prove that the town owes
them a bounty. There is no reason
why the towns or the applicants should
rush to the courts with the business.
The whole transaction is founded upon
a just basis and ought to be adjusted
without “a hue and cry,” or a. resort
to legal proceedings. '

Terrible Afflictmn.

Mrs. James Whaley of Wolfpit Hills,
whose family of eight children were
afflicted with dysentery, four of whom
died, is now prostrated wiih the same

 

disease herself, and her condition is

considered serious. Four of her child-
ren are now sick with the complaint. at
the hospital on the Town "Farm. Three

of the number are getting along nicely"-

and hepes are expressed of their recov-
ery.’ With the fourth child, the sympe
toms are not as favorable, but there is
also a probability of her recovery. Mr.

,y 'Whaley has as yet managed to keep
free of the complaint but the care at
- first experienced by him in watching

over his stricken family and the be-
reavement over the deaths of four of

. 5. his children have proved a terrible

Nurses have been provided for the

would have to be provided for the father

the worst cases 1n the annals of Nor-3

sympathy of all. ‘

William Louden Surrenders- Hl‘m-
sell to His Bondsman Michael
O’Donnell.

—__--——

Lodged in. the Station House.

 

William London is again inone of
the cells at the Smith street station
house, and this time of his own free
will.

He it is who gave Constable Hunt
such a lively tussle in trying to arrest
him at Winnipauk last Wednesday
night, in which tussle both the con-
stable and his prisoner were consider-
ably bruised, and London managed to
make his escape.

London at the time was under bonds
of $300 furnished by his mother and
Michael O’Donnell, for his appearance
for trial on the charge of assault, be-
fore the September term of the Super-
ior Court. The sureties, however, had
expressed a wish to be released, hence
Louden’s rearrest by Constable Hunt.

When previously released on bonds
he Went to work for Michael O’Don-
nell, one of his bondsmen. and had a
small amount due him, and left his
work without collecting the same, and
until his arrest by Hunt had been loaf-
ing around the saloons. '

Since his escape from Constable Hunt
the full details of which were published
in these columns on Thurrday, London
has been in concealment.

About5 o’clock, this morning, Mr.
O’Donnell heard his two dogs barking
and looking out of the window saw
London. Dressing and going to the
door he let him in, and asked the na-
ture of his errand. Louden said that
he wanted the money due him for
work. Mrs. London was sent for, and
young London was prevailed upon to
give himself up into custody.

Mr. O’Donnell hitched up his horse
and drove to this city with London and
turned him over to Chief Bradley who
looked him up in the station house.

Louden had two blackened eyes and
bruises on his face, which went to prove
that his tussle with Hunt was by no
means a one-sided afi‘air. He was as
docile as a child, and evidently regretted

constable.
London was taken to the Bridgeport
jail on the 12.05 train.

Fire at Westport.

The house of Leonard Lewis on the
Easton road, just out of Westport, was
destroyed by. fire Thursday afternoon.
.Loss $4,000, partially covered by in-
surance. The cottage was known as
the “Sheet of Wheat” cottage and bc-
longed to the Charles Esta-hum place.

 

100 Years Old To-day.

Mrs. Catherine Judd, colored, of
Bridgeport, celebrated her one hun-
dredth birthday to-day. She resides in
a small house on Whitney street and is
bright and in good health. Her father
was a slave of George Edwards, in
Newtown, and she was born there
Aug. 24, 1795.

Climbed Too High.
Prof. George Yoerger, the able in-

 

.structor of the manly art of self defense,

is going about with a badly sprained
ankle. The Professor informed a
GAZETTE representative that he had
fallen from a cherry tree while picking
cherries, but asthe Professor has but
recently been baptised in the Second
Adventist faith while we do not doubt
that he was up a tree, we are rather
skeptical about the cherry part of the
story.

 

v.-
A Generous Offer. _

Several of the N orwalk stockholders
of the Lees Manufacturing company of
Westport, are in receipt of a letter
from Marsh, Mel-win & Lemmon of
Bridgeport, running as follows.

“We can use a little Lees Manufac-
turing company’s stock at $10 per
share.”

As the par value is $50 per share and
the company’s prospects have improved
it is unlikely that they will be able to
“use” much- at that figure.

The letter was probably inspired by
theLees brothers who are anxious to
conlrol the stock. ‘

 

 

+
Has Resigned.

The Stonington Mirror has this to
say of William R. Palmer who at one
time conducted the Norwalk Democrat.
_“Mr. William R. Palmer, who for two
years and two-thirds has been probate
clerk under Judge Elias B. Hinckley,
has tendered his resignation. It is
with regret that we hear of Mr. Pal-
mer’s resignation, for he is a gentleman
whose courteousness and urbanitv well
fitted him for the position, and a more
accommodating man never trod foot in
the borough. We wish him the best of
success in any new business 1n which he
may engage.”

Narrow Escape ol Foreman Gun-
nlngham and Two Workman
atthe Standard Oil Com-
Dany’ 3 Works.

A Section of the iron Tank Falls on
the Foreman.

 

There was a narrow escape from a
disastrous accident at the new plant of
the Standard Oil Company on the
Wilson Point Road, yesterday after-
noon. That the accident did not re-
sult fatally was more good fortune than
anything else.

Foreman Michael Cunningham and
two men were at work on a scaffold
placing in position the sheet iron sec—
tions of the mammoth oil tank which
stands at the northern end of the lot.
While working away one of the werk-
men-lost his balance and fell from the
scaffold.
the frail wooden scaffold and succeeded

body caused the structure to give way
bringing all three men to the ground
below.

Their fellow workmen hastily rushed
to the- spot and found that the two men
had received severe injuries to their
arms and legs, but foreman Cunning-
ham was partially stunned, having
been struck on the head by a section
cfgthegzheet iron tank which followed
the descent of the scaffold and men.

He was bleeding profusely froma
dangerous cut in the arm and scalp
and had a severe contusion over one
eye.

Amessage was at once sent for the
ambulance and a surgeon and Dr. Burke
responded. He soon had the injuries
of the 'two workmen attended to,
but Cunningham’s case required more
medical assistance than could be ren~
dered at that place‘and he was accord-

cn to the hospital. Dr. Burke here
found it necessary to take sixteen stitch

es in the gash in his arm before the
gaping wound could be closed.

This morning the injured men were
quite sore from their fall, but all were
able to resume work.

Should Be Protected.

The Latter Day Saints cost the city
of N orwalk $2 per night for police pro-
tection. —Sentine.

If it cost the city $1,090 a night they
should be protected, nevertheless.

Co. E, 17th C. V.

Just thirty-three years ago, Company
E of the 17th Regiment Connecticut
Volunteers, left Westport for Bridge-
port, and went into camp, at what is
now known as Seaside Park. As we
now remember, the officers of the com-
pany, as they formed in front of the
Hotel onState street, were: Henry P.
Burr, captain; William C. Johnson,
and Henry McDouough, lieutenants,
and James E. Hubbell, 1st sergeant.
The regiment was mustered into service

JUDGE JAMES '1‘. Hunnnnn._
Sydney Smith, who was arrested yes-

Hunt was taken before Judge Hubbell
this morning. There was a string of
complaints as long as a fishing line,
against the prisoner. Smith was fined
$5 on the charge of intoxication and $3
for resistance to the officers. Judgment
was suspended on the charge of abusive
language and the charge of breach of
the peace was nolled. Smith paid up

Steamed Socks. '
One day this week, John Bouton,
Fred Bates and James Beers came down
from Danbury, and hiring a skifi‘ and a
'leg-07-mutton sail, drifted‘and rowed
down the harbor where they found a
few long-clam trees from which they
picked about a peck of fruit. They af-

were being dished out a bedraggled
looking» piece of cotton goods was
brought to the surface, which onffur-
ther investigation proved to, be a man’s

of the sock in the kettle of clams.
They were identified as belonging to
the fat man of the party. James Beers.
It seems that he had carelessly left them
on topof the basket of clams, and not
being neticed by the cook. had been
dumped into the kettle with the clams.
The party, nothing daunted, ate the
clams and pronounced them the best
they ever tasted. -

YOUTHEUL BURGLARS

 

Company's "Elm G rove
Store.

Had a Great Fondness for Lobster.

Burglaries seem to be the order of
the day. Yesterday, the blowing open
0f the safe at the Rowayton post-office
W916 Chronicled, and to-day comes the
news of the robbing of'the Raymond
Company’s. Elm Grove store during
the night.

When the little grocery store kept
by the Raymond company at Elm
Grova was opened for business this
morning it was found that some. time
during the night thieves had broken a
glass from one of the windows and ab-
stracted a half dozen or more cans of
lobster that had been placed on exhibi-
tion. Asearch of the premises failed
to show that anyone had been inside
the store or that other goods had been
taken.

From the manner in which entrance
was gained and the quantity and quali-
ty of goods removed it is believed by
the police that the work was that of a
gang of, oodlums who infest the
neighborhood.

It is possible the thieves will be "ap-
prehended and an example made of
them, as these petty burglaries are get-
ting altogether too common.

Olsen Bros., the enterprising shoe
dealers, are giving away cards that will
entitle the bearer to a free ' 1111111»,

moo ln‘Belfast.

Barney Henry, for a number of
years employed at DeKlyn’ a bakery on
Main street, died in Belfast, Ireland,
August 10th. News of km death has
just been received here. The deceased
had been in poor health for along
time. He left this city for Belfast
April 6th, and seemed to have» a pre-
monition that he or uld live but a short
time, and on bidding his friends good
bye, said, “I am, going back home to
die.”

Worse Than Brutes.

Byingtcn, of the Norwalk GAZETTE,
occasionally uses vigorous English and
he has cher donefit to a better purpose
than when he said: “A' man who not
only doubts the honor of his wife, but
takes the pains to go to _‘a newspaper
Office to have 'it heralded all over the
country, 15 a disgrace to himself and a
disgrace to the town that harbors him,
and it is no wonder that actions of a
similar nature called forth the room k
from a well-known lady, “I‘he more I
see of some men,the better Ilike dogs.”

That there are men worse than brutes
is an undeniable truth.—Stamford Post.

1 Runaway.

Ahorse driven by Thomas Varson,
hostler for Dr. Dexter Hitchcock, be-
came frightened on West avenue, near
the Armory, last evening, and ran
away. The carriage was overturned
and the occupants Thomas Varson and
Thomas O’Brien were buried into the
street. Varson pluckily held on to the
hues and was dragged a hundred feet
or more when the horse struck the
curb and fell. Both Varson and
O’Brien escaped serious injury. The
carriage was completely" wrecked.
While being dragged on the ground
Varsou lost his watch which was found
by‘Letter carrier Perry and returned
to the owner.
