We desire to inform the public that the Westporter-Herald is the one and only Westport newspaper, the asser- tions of certain outside parties to the contrary notwithstanding, and we have never claimed our journal to be a Nor- walk or Bridgeport paper (because we hada correspondent in those places,) for the purpose of securing advertise- ments or anything else. The above appeared in these columns last-week, and was quoted in the Even- ing Hour, and commented on by the following: “The Hour is just as much a Westport paper as the Westporter- claims to be. * * The circulation of the Hour in Westport, is larger than that of any other paper and its news is more accurate, refreshing and crisp. Furthermore, its editors, are larger taxpayers in Westport, than the editors - of any other paper ‘havingacirculation there and until quite recently they have resided and voted in the town.” In the words of the Hour, the above lacks “that charming element of truth,” when it says its circulation is larger than that of any other paper in West- port. As regards its news being more accurate, we leave that with its few readers in Westport to decide. Re- garding its editors being largo tax-pay.- ers in Westport, we would say that the assessors of this town Would like to know where the name of Maples appears upon the tax-list, and the tax collectors for the past five'years are desirous to know to whom those large taxes have been paid.~—Westporter. ' i visions EMPLOYEE He'Robs David Jenks the Milkman. of Nearly $450. NO Clue Obtalned of the Robb er A bold robbery took place at the resi- dence of John F. Knapp at Belden Hill,- near Wilton early Saturday evening in which the thief secdred nearly $420 in cold cash, checks and money orders, belOnging to David Jenks, the milk- man. Mr. Jenks lives at the Knapp resi- dance. and until such time as is conven- ient to place it in the bank, keeps his receipts for the day in a tin box in a bureau diawer in his room. Satur- day night he went away and did not re- turn until morning. On going to- his room he found the bureau drawer open and'the box and its contents missing. Thinking that Mrs. Knapp had taken it out and placed it somewhere else for safe-keeping, he was not alarmed, but on questioning her he found that she too had found the drawer open and be- came suspicious that. some one had stolen the box. Her suspicions gained almost a certainty when she learned that. a young man named Joseph Um- baster had failed to do his usual work about the place Saturday evening and that he was also missing. Mr. Jenks immediately started in search of Umbaster, .and notified the officers in this and other cities to be on the lookout f)!’ him. So far, the fol low has not been captured, neither has any trace of him been secured. Umbaster slept in a room adjoining that of Mr. Jenks and knew where the money was kept but never before dur- ing his two years stay on the place has he been suspected of being dishonest. It is understood that Uiubaster came from Chicago. He is described as be- ing about 10 years of age, 5 feet 3 inches tall, black hair, large flit nose and small blue eyes. Besides silver and bills the box con-I. tained a check for $45 issued to Hiram Jellifi'e, which had been cashed by Mr. Jenks, a money order from John H. Wilson for $25 and one or two other . checks for smaller amounts aggregating in all a trifle less than $450. Mr Icnks has ofiered a re ward of $100 for the capture of the thief. ———————~——-<o~ ' A.

Wing, twenty-four years old, of Brooklyn, was held for examina- tion by Magistrate Wentworth in the Tombs Police Court Saturday, on the charge of passing a worthless check for $25 on Rogers, Peel: & Co. The prison- e1 is the son of the Rev. Charles S. Wing, of the Brcvoort House, Bedford ave. and Brevoort Place, Brooklyn. Detective Brown said the Rev. Mr. Wing told him his son had been passing worthless checks for two years, and that he had paid $400 on his sOn’s ac count. He never knew of his son’s doings until the Nussua National Bank informed him that his account had been overdrawn. Audaclous Man.

POUND__ DROWNED The Body of William *Greehe Float- ing In the Water. Walked Off the Dock'ln the Dark. About 4 o’clock this morning James. O’Brien, the . Consolidated railroad bridge tender at South Norwalk heard some one coughing in the lumber yard of Hatch, Bailey & 00. just south of the bridge. ' He paid no particular attention to the noise but thought it strange that any one should be about the yard at that time in the morning. ' After the 4:20 train passed Over the draw O’Brien’s attention was attracted by the sound of some one strangling in the water. He hastily ran down to the wharf and in the darkness discovered a man overboard. He picked up a plank and pushed it towards the drowning mambut the latter paid no attention to it, being too far gone to catch hold of the same. - O’Brien at once notified ofiicer Pen- nington of the drowning, and the latter sent for Dr. Burke. The medical examiner had the body towed to the float at the Washington street bridge from where it was removed to undertaker David W. Raymond’s morgue. ‘ ilere the body was identified as that of William Greene. an employee of Contractor Brown, who had been work- ing on the improvements. He came to South NOrwalk from Croton Dam, on August 1st., and boarded at No. 1 Ann street. ' At his boarding house, it was learn- ed that Greehe had eaten his supper at 5.30 o’clock, Saturday evening, but since that time he had not been seen. It was also learned that he had been drinking. but was not intoxicated. It is thought that Greene got on a spree Saturday night and kept it up yesterday, and wandered into the lum- ber yard, yesterday morning and walked off the dock in the darkness. The deceased was about 50 years of age and hasthree sons in New York, his wife being dead. _ The Bids Opened. The bids for the building of a piece of telford road, in accordance with Chap- ter CCCXV. of the Public Acts of the State of Connecticut, entitled, “An Act- to Provide for the Improvement of Public Roads,” cammeucing at the city line, west of Taylor avenue, onthe turnpike, and extending Westerly, were opened at the Selectmen’ s ofiice, Satuidav afternoon There were four bids.

A Tramway car was going over the brow of Mill Hill, yesterday noon, awhen the car began to slip and back down the hill. Motorman Sweet ap: plied the brake but could not stop the car which came down the hill at a rapid rate and did not stop until a grade was reached. It is alleged that Conductor Martin threw off the trolley wheel, ”thus handicapping the motorman in the use of the brake. The slipping was caused by the wet leaves which covered the tracks. 'No one Was hurt', but the passengers were considerably fright- ened. ‘ Last Ring Down. The straw-hat bell was sounded for the dropping out of the summer straw hat on the first instant. Owing to the unusual heat, their use was tolerated‘up to Sept 15th, when the second bell was rung. So intense was the mid-Septem ber heat however, that their use was ex- tended for fifteen days more, but the last bell- calling in all such head-gear is to be rung to-day and no one but a very rich man can hereafter afflrd to appear in the streets wearing a sham hat. —<+>—-—~'—" Captain George Arnold.

Treated for‘Hls Injuries by Dr. W. J. Tracy. Thomas Mason an employee at the shoe Manufactory of Lounsbury, Mat- thewson & Co. is confined to his bed at his home on Harbo‘r avenue, suffering from injuries received while attempting to board .a Street Railway car at South Nor_walk,lSaturday afternoon. The story of the accident as told by Mr. Mason, is in a substance as follows: “It occurred soon after I had got through my work, and I should say be- tween 5:30 and 6 O’clock. I had made some purchases at a store on North Main Street and had them in my hand as the car Came along, and which I signalled ' to stop. Two other men got on the car in front of me, and just as I grasped the guard-rail and stepped one foot on the running-board, the conductor signalled the motorman to go ahead, and I was thrown against the car, my left s‘de striking it with considerable force. It felt painful and I talked pretty plainly to the conductor about his carelessness. I did not at the time or until the next day think the wound one of a serious nature. But it grew rapidly worse and more painful, andI summoned Dr. Tracy who pre- scribed for it and said that I would probably be laid up for a week, some- thing I cannot afl‘ord with the huge family I have.” He showed a (lazs'rrn representative 8. black and blue spot near his left hip nearly as large as sauce plate, and stated that it was very painful. Superintendent Kylc of the Street Railway will thoroughly investigate the matter. Mr. Mason has a large family of small children dependent upon him for support. One of the children ll‘ls but just recovered from a severe week’s il'- ness, and he has another child which only the great-est care and Watching will save from death. The little one is three years-Old and is eufieriug from a cut on her foot by which she nearly bled to death. <’>——-——-— _ At the Hospital. _ There are at present seven patients at the hospital, one of whom, .Dennis Collins, will probably. be discharged tovday.

At about half past two o’clock Sun- day morning. a boarder named Riley, was retiring at the Columbus Hotel, when he wasstartled by two explosions. Looking out of the window he failed to see or hear anything further and‘closed the blinds to his rooms.
