The State is infested.

Under the above head, the New Ila-
ven Palladium gives the following time-
ly suggestions as to the theft and robs
bery epidemic seemingly now prevail-
ing here in Norwalk, and all over our
state. It says: ' ' '

“It is quite evident that . Connecticut
is just now infested with burglars, coun-
terfeiters, horse thieves other
criminals, who are doing a brisk busi-
ness. Burglaries took place last Thurs-
day night at Hartford, Bridgeport and
New Haven. In this city at a home in
Dwight street, the invaders stolejewel-
ry and money to the amount of at least
$250.

The same night at Norwich some mid-
night marauders stole it horse, five har-
nesses and a road wagon besides a mis—

ago burglars got away with $10,000
worth of spoils from the country house
of a Philadelphia man at Pomfret,
Other instancnl might be cited but
these are sufficient to show that burglary
and thieving are preValent in the state.
During last month twenty-three crimi-
nals of'these types were caught in New
Haven alone.

Housekeepers should heed the warn-
ing given by the recital of so many
cases, and should be especially watch-
ful and keep their deors and windows
all well secured. Residents should also
keep a suspicious eye on loitering
strangers. .

The public moreover, Lshould beware

of counterfeit silver dollars which are
now in circulation. They are plentiful
especially at Branford.
coin is a composition of lead and alumi—
num and has a silver-like ring. By
looking sharply at each circular dollar
before you accept it or give any change,
you may save money. We know that
these warning Wurd-S will prove profit-
able to intelligent readers.”_

The spurious

A Long Deferred Monument.

The erection of a monument to mark
the locality at which Washington cross-
ed the Deleware in the night of Christ-
mis, 1776, while on the way to his suc-
cessful attack upon [the Hessians at
Trenton, should not have been left to
ihislate day. No single event of the
{evolution did more to revive the
drooping spirits of the American peo-
ple in the darkest hours of the struggle
for American liberty; military
achievement of that memorable period

110

was characterized by greater daring,
planned with more consummate skill or
carried to brilliant success in. the face
of greater difficulties. The capture of
Trenton furnished-the most conspicuous
example of Washington’s method of
aggressive warfare, Which was that of
striking the enemy suddenly and with-‘
out warning in the locality where he
was expected least. .
Every schoolboy has been thrill:d by
the story of Washington and his little
army crossing the Delaware in thedead
ofacold Christmas night, their very
lives imperilled by the floating ice car-
ried by the swift current, but few of
the millions of American people know
the historic locality or could find it if
they caredto without a guide. The 10-
. cality is familiar to the residents of a
limited area on either side of the Dela-
‘ ware, and the raflmen who used to run
their lumber down the river to the
Philadelphia market knew the place
and never failed to call attention to it
in passing, but t) the great. mass of
Americans Washington’s Crossing, as it
jlfamiliarly called, was a name without
a definite location. .
The dedication of a monument at this
historic locality was the tardy perfoim-
ance of a duty which should have mark-
ed the beginning rather than the end
of the nineteenth century. _ Unpardon-
able neglect has characterized our
treatment of many important historic
localities, and it is only within very
recent years that we have really awak-
ened to the propriety‘and necessity of

preserving and marking the places
where the most important ‘5American

monument at Washington’s Crossing
should have been erected'lat) than
never, and the dedicatory exercises
which marked Tuesday’sevent at that
.ever memorable locality, were. highly
commendable: Thetmonliment and the
place it marks, should and no doubt will
become the shrine of innumerable
American pilgrimages in all the years
of the future.

An Eel Completely Clogs a Three
And one-Half Inch Water Pipe
at The Electric Light
Station.

 

At twenty-eight minutes past five
o’clock- last evening, all of the incan-
descent» and are lights in this city and
denly went out leaving everything in

darkness.- The electric cars on the

Street Railway became stalled on the
Winnipauk branch and along the line
between this city and South Norwalk.
In the stores, gas, lamps and candles
were soon brought into riquisition,
while everybody wondered what ilwas
the matter at the power house.

Receiver Whitney of the N‘orwalk and
South Norwalk Electric Light compa-
ny was just preparing tui eat his supper
at the Norwalk hotel when he was and-
denlyleftin darkness. Hastily donning
his hat and coat he repaired to the pew-
or house on Wilton ayenue.

Here he found the pondernus engine
and mammoth electric generators stop-
ped and the firemen at work in the
darkness hastily drawing the fire from
under the huge boilers. In reply to
his inquiry he was informed that no
water could be pumped through the
water supply pipe into the boilers and
it was necessary to shut down until wa-
" ter could be obtained.

Surmising that something had been
drawn into the supply pipe ‘by the pump
Mr. W hituey had the engineer un-
couple the pipe in sections. When the
first joint was opened the pipe was
found to be completely clogged by the
body of a monstrous eel.

An attempt was made by the engineer
to pull the animal from his position
Willi his hands but he could not be
moved. Avice was then brought into
use but his eelship was too slippery
and could not be secured between the
jaws of the vice.
procured a piece of copper wire and
after passing one end through the neck
of the eel it was given several twists to
prevent its tearing out. The Receiver
took hold of the pipe and the engineer
the wire and each pulled until he was
red in'the face but Mr. Eel refused to
budge. Several other means of getting
the fish out of the pipe were resorted to
but to no purpose. Becoming desper~
ate the enginrRr placed the pipe and
eel on the floor and drove a cold chisel
completely through its body and placed
it fast to the floor. Both men then
grasped the pipe and after twisting and
turning it for several minutes succeed-
ed in getting it clear from the eel.

The pipe was then recoupled, the
fires stai ted afreshand steam generated,
and after a shut down of one hour and
ten minutes the electric current was on,
the lights lighter] and the trolley cars
bowled merrily along.

When measured the eel was found to
be three feet three inches long and
four inches in circumference. It was
not weighed until this morning when it
tipped the scales at 6 pounds.

Receiver Whitney is somewhat of a

his long experience has he ever seen an
eel that could compare with this one.
Would Not Confess.

Chief Bradley received information
yesterday that lead him to believe that
a lad named Richard O’Grady was the
party who entered the store of J M.
Benedict Monday night. He therefore
Visited his home and brought him be
fore Prosecuting Attorney Gregory for
examination. Young O’Grady informed
the Chief that the burglary was com-
mitted by Demenico Galeet and Tony
Pennebria, two Italian boys, who were
also secured and brought before Attor-
ney Gregory.

After a rigid examination it was
proven that the two Italians had noth-
ing to do with the burglary, although
they confessed to visiting Frank Star’s
barn and obtaining candy at one time,
and it was suspected that they also en-
tered Finney & Benedict’s store some
weeks ago.

While O’Grady was caught in several
falsehoods nothing could induce him to
confesa to having entered Benedict’s
store.

The Clark'snecker' Case. Settled
Out of Court.

 

Spicy and Sensational Develop-

ments WereAnticlpated. Mrs.
' Clark Seems to Have'Lost '
- Nothing by The Set-
tlement.

Clever work on the part of Judge
Comley, of Bridgeport, his Spoileda
rattling good story, "and deprived the
annals of the Superior court of-an ins
teresting case, which, if tricd,-say_s the
Farmer, would no doubt have furnished,
au‘amount of spicy reading not excelled
by any action of a similar nature heard
before the local courts in years.

The parties’in interest were Alice E.
Clark, now a resident of NOrwalk, but
who formerly resided in Bridgeport,
where she at one time owned consider-
able real estate, and William Sneaker»
a comparative new comer to that city. .
‘ ‘Mrs. Clark is about 35 and a widow;
Sneckner is fully twice her age and
from all_ accounts, a married man.
The latter intimated that he had matri-
monialinc'linations, and the fact that
he was still married did not lessen his
ardor. ' He explained everything by
producing evidence ofdworce proceed-
ings then pending between himself and
his wife, and which were expected to
free him from present matrimonial ob-
ligations. Mrs. Clark accepted a soli-
taire diamond ring valued at, $500 and‘
a promissory note of $1,500. The latter
she converted into, cash. .

Just what happened next does not
exactly-appear, but a few weeks after,
Mrs. Clark was surprised when her
property in this city was attached for
damages, the plaintiff being Sneckner.
A New York attorney was counsel for
him and Judge Comley for the defend-
ant. Mrs. Clark claimed that the ring
and money were given her as an evi-
dence of good faith on the part of
Sneckner, who said he wanted Mrs
Clark to look after and care for him in
his old age. He claimed to have con-
siderable property in New York, which
he intimated his willingness to make
over to her in event of their arriving at
a satisfactory conclusion respecting
their mutual relations.

Sneckner claims that Mrs. Clark was
to provide a home for him in return for
his gifts. This she had not done. Over-

lures for a settlement on the part of
Sneckvner’s attorney were made to
Judge Comely several weeks ago. An‘
amicable understanding was arrived at
and Judge Comely supposed the matter
had ended. when a few weeks later At—
torney James II. O’Rourke of Bridge-.
port, had the property attached in a
new action instituted by Snecknel', who
desired the return of his ring and
money. Mrs. Clark, by advice of coun-
sel, refused to give themup. The mat
ter was finally settled a few days ago,
Mrs. Clark retaining the ring and the
greater portion of the money.

ALBERT DE FOREST.

After a. year and more of acute suffer-
ing, Albert DeForest “fell on sleep,”
the sleep that knows no waking, last
night at his home No. 25 High street,
in this city, in the 54th year of his age.
He was born in Stratford, enlisted as a
member of the renowned Fourteenth
Connecticut Vols, and faithfully'served
throughout the war. He married a
daughter of the late John Murray, who
died several years ago and two children,
Mrs. Florence Smith and‘ Mrs. EliZa-
beth Whitlcck, survive him.
genial, friendly man, with all, and es-
pecially cordial with friends and com-
rades. He has been Chief of our
police force, and was an upright, faithful
andefiicient officer. His funeral is to
take place from his residence on High
street, at 2.30 p. m., on Saturday, Buck-
ingham-Post, of which he Wasa member,
acting as guard of honor. ~

There was probably no man in all
Norwalk, in any of the humbler Walks
of life, who possessed to a greater de-
gree, the confidence and affectionate
regard of his fellow citizens. He
was always so unobtrusively modest,
and his nature so sunny'and cordial,
that he seemed an inexhaustible foun-
tain of mental health and cheer. He
may not be called great unless we think
goodness and integrity are great. His
days were mostly passed in the perfor-
mance of the simplest duties, and yet
simple duties became radiant as they
reflected his unbending honesty of pur-
pose and the unobtrusive manliness of
a noble, upright and generous soul.
