Evidence of True Repentance.
Yesterday’s Tribune contained an in-
teresting little item about an unknown
Salem, N. J. man sending .920 to the
County Clerk with this letter:
Dear Sir: Inclosed you will find twen-
ty dollars. I have not paid as much
tax as I should, as I .am trying to lead a.
Christian life I believe it should be
paid. This belongs to the county.
If an epidemic of that kind were to
break out here in Nor walk, we could
very soon wipe out our heavy town and
city debts.

Their Lightning Rods Up
The Fifth Avenue Hotel. in New
York, appears to be the public tele-
i phone station from which the several
Republican Presidential aspirants, or
their next friends, are calling hello to
the dear people. Ex-President Har-
rison keeps mum himself, but allows his
friends to talk about, if not for him.
Sherman speaks for McKinley, Plait
for Morton, With a wink; Manley for
Reed and Clarkson for Allison.
And may the best man win.
your money and take your choice.
An Artist’s Death.
The death of Calvert Vaux is a sad
ending to a particularly useful career,
that should not be considered less bril-
liant because it was so modest. Though
he was known only to the few outSide
of his own cityg many have seen and all
have heard of his work. The Central
Park in New York was mainly of his
making, and it is incomparably the
greatest piece Of landscape art achieved
ever in this country or in recent years
anywhere. Mr. Vaux had associates,
of course, in Oimstead in portions of
the landscape and Mole and Withers in
architectural details—but he was the
consmnt artist of the park from its be-
ginning, and New York will be derelict
if it do not worthily commemorate the
chief author of its greatest adornment
and most precious possession.

The New Railway Danger.
Boy train wreckers who place ob-
structions upon railway tracks just to see
he smash, are not exactly a new class
of criminals, butthe four boys who are
injiil at Rome N. Y., for this offence
are too old not to have known better.
They are probably a lot of hare-brained
youths who have been perverted by too
much dime novel reading, and a good,
long term in prison may restore them
to mental sanity. .

managers meet in running their trains
with profit to stockholders and safety

be patrolsd from end to end by armed

long range, and very long at that. The

Peddler’s Taxis Void.
At New Haven yesterday, the Sn-
preme Court decided that the ordin-
ances of prohibiting peddlers from sell-
ing goods Without'a license enacted in
so many cities of the State, is unconsti-
tutional.
The decision was rendered by Chief
Justice Andrews, and all the other jus-
tices concurred.
Congressman Sperry.
Congressman N. D. Sperry of the
Second district will go to Washington
next Wednesday. He will take his
family ,to the capitalaftei the holidays
and will take up residence in the Hotel
Buckingham in Fifteenth street, where
he has secured handsome apartments.
This fine hostlery is named after Con-

Barn Burned.
The big barn of Hezekiah Elwood of
Hull’s Farms, three miles north of
Fairfield, filled to the rafters with the
products of Mr. Ellwood’s hay fields
and orchards, was discovered to be on
fire at 7 o’clock last evening, and an
hour later had burned completely to
the ground. There is little doubt that
the fire was of an incendiary origin,
and there seems to be agood clue to
the perpetrators who are thought to be
negroes.

Pastor vs. Organist.
Rev. S. '1‘. Graham, rector, and Prof.
J. Whittaker, organist, both of Trinity
church, Mount Vernon, N. Y., don’t
love each other any more. According
to the organist the rector’s conduct is
arbitrary, and accordingto the rector,
the organist’s conduct is insubordinate.
The organist has been asked to resign
but refuses unless his salary is paid up
to the first of May, when his time ex-
pires.
Mr. Graham was for a short time rec-
tor at St. Paul’s church in this city.
Mr. Whittaker was also organist at the
same church. Mr. Graham left and
went to his present church in Mount
Vernon, and later prevailed upon Mr.
Whittaker tO accept the phsition of or-
ganist.
Mrs. Whittaker is reported as saying
that her husband was induced by Mr.
Graham to leave a salary of $1,000 in
Norwalk, for one of $800 in Mount Ver-
non, because he told him he could get
so much outside work, and he would be
nearer to New York city.
Strong language, not in the ritual, is
reported as having been indulged in
between the two gentlemen. Both seegi
to have acted very naughty. '
Our New Hospital.
The Boston architect who has the pre-
paring of the plans for ournew hospi-
tal, was in town yesterday and submit-
ted to the board of managers, his pre-
liminary drawings for the principal
building. This comprises a main edi-
fice with two well lighted and ventilated
wings and would seem to cover all pres-
ent requirements. The plans, however,
will be carefully scanned and considered
before final acceptance. The archii
tect is a specialist in such work and the
best uo-to-date edifice, for the purpose
and the means at command, is determ-
ined, upon both by our local bo'ard and
the drawer of the plans.
Considerable criticism has been in“
dulged in over the selection of the site
and the high price paid for it, with the
statement that double the space and
nearer the two city centers could have
been secured for less money. Be this
as it may, a site as central, easy of ac-
cess, with the even greater advantages
of unobstructed light and air, would
be difficult, if not impossible to get
anywhere in Norwalk. It- is proposed
to make the main entrance to the hospi-
tal by an easy grade via Cedar street,
with a rear access via‘ the Stamford
pike up Armory bill. This will prove an
ornament and credit to the whole town
of Norwalk, whose citizens have labor-
ed and striven for it so long and earn-

Ill-THE ROPED llllEllll. ‘
The Yoerger-Jolinson Athletic En-
tertainment Packs the
Opera House.
The Ernst—Keefe Go. the Event of
the Evening.
Long before 8 o’clock the Opera
House began to fill until the hour when
the curtain went up the house was
crowded from top to bottom and stand-
ing roOm only was the order Of the eve-
ning. .
The tall form of Chief Bradley in full
uniform, something however, out of the
ordinary, as he never attends enter-
tainments, was conspicuous at the rear
of the hall. The Mayor and several
members of the council as well as the
city attorney were present to witness
the evening’s sport. Visitors from
Bridgeport, Danbury, Stamford,
Greenwich and all the nearby towns
were also in, attendance.
At 8.40 the curtain was rung up, and
Mr. Johnson announced that owing "to
business engagements, Fred Bullen.
who was to have actiil as master Of
ceremonies, was unable to be present
and introduced reliable: Dan McIntyre
who was received with loud applause.
Dan stepped to the ‘footlights. and
announced the first bout Would be be—
tween Fred Serrett of Bridgeport and
Jim Shepp of the West Side Athletic
club, South Norwalk. After shaking
hands Shepp started in after Serrett in
a lively way, but was soon obliged to
retreat as Serrett upper—cut cross’coun-
tered and played a lively tattoo on his ,
neck and face. In the second round
Shepp went at Serrett and landed sev-
eral hard punches on his jaw. Owing
to the interference of the excited
Bridgeport contingent that swarmed
behind the scenes, the referee was
obliged to call time before the three
minutes were up. In the third round
Shepp was more cautious and landed
some hot shot on Serrett’s jaw, at one
time sending in right and left in quick
succession. At the end of the round
Serrett was very groggy and would
have gone out had time not been called.
He also sprained his right wrist at
the wind up Of the round. I
The bout was followed by Thomas
Coles in baritone selections, which re-
ceived plenty of applause from the au‘
dience. He was followed by John Ar-
lington in feats of contortion, several
of which were unusually fine.
The next bout was between Lou Web-
ster of Bridgeport and Dick Fitzgerald
of the S. N. A. C. Webster weighed
fully twenty—five pounds more than
Dick and had the advantage in reach.
In the first round Dick kept away and
poked his left in Webster’s face several
times. In the second the same condi-
tions prevailed, but in the third they
came together and Webster’s weight
and reach was apparent, he hitting Dick
some hard right and left facers.
. They were followed by three round'5
between Fred McGirr Of Bridgeport
and Tom McInerny of Winnipauk.
Frank Patterson of Brooklyn, who was
present,wa: t) havegone on with McGitr
but owing to a sore hand was unable to
do so. However, the audience was
treated to some excellent sparring and
dodging and the three rounds closed
amidst hearty applause.
Billy Johnson of South Norwalk and
Billy Forsyth of Danbury, gave one
round that was applauded to the echo,
but the former was sick and had to re-
tire much to the regret of all.
The next was three rounds between
Joe Mulvehill of the S. N. A. C. and
Fred Sybell of Stamford. The latter
knew nothing about sparring but was a
side stepping wrestler Of the most awk-
ward pattern. It Was impossible for
Mulvehill to spar with him as at every
attempt Sybell hugged him about the
neck and would not let go. Whenever
he did lead he would go in head down
like a country school boy aving his
Prof. George Yoerger then gave an
exhibition of fancy shooting and dem-
onstrated the fact that he could shoot
as well as box, some of his shots being
marvelous in their execution. i
The next on the program was three
rounds between Jack McGirr of Bridge-
port and Dutch Monahan of the S. N.
A. C. In the first round Dutch clinch-
ed every time he" missed, but he did not
escape a terrific upper cut that Jack
placed over his right optic. In the
second round Dutch was unable to land
but two blows on the ribs while Jack
got in some hard facers, in one of
which he broke his right wrist and the
bout was obliged to stop.
At its close referee McIntyre an-
nounced that Dutch would fight any
man in the state at 140 pounds. His
challenge was quickly accepted by
George Beck of Stamford, who stat‘ed
that he had a man who would fight him
for $500 and that the money was ready
for Dutch to cover.,
The next go was three friendly rounds
between Prof. George Yoerger and
Harry Jamison of Bridgeport. Jamié
son was several inches taller than the
Professorand it was hard for the latter
to reach him. However, they made a
scientific go besides affording lots of
amusement to the audience.
Next came the wind-up of four rounds
between Billy Ernst of Brooklyn and
Dan Keefe of Greenwich... In the first
‘left town immediately.
several right-handers on Ernét’s neck.
In the second round- Keefe could not
hit Ernst and the latter get first blood
fi‘om‘a straight left on K'eefe’s nose.
In the third round Ernst got in a hook.
blow on Keefe’s jaw that sent his head
back as if on hinges. In the fourth it
was hammer and tongs and ”,Keefe was
decidedly groggy at the end and fouled
Ernst twice, but ' he made a splendid
showing and staid until the call of time.
"Kip” Sold the Gun.
A queer incident occurred in New Ca-
naan yesterday, in which James Wilbur
Benedict, better known as “Kip” play-
61 a conspicuous part. Benedict has
been enjoying- himéelf immensely dur-
ing the past few months as a Nimrod,
making his headquarters at the home
of the well—known and all-around sport's-
man, Hiram Davis. ~
Yesterday ”Kip” struck the village,
dressed appropriately for his vocation
and equipped with all the necessary
paraphernalia for a hunting expedition.
After making calls at. the cafes in the
borough, he became somewhat mixed,
and, meeting it stranger, explained to
him the good qualities of a $75 breech-
loading gnn.‘ Upon being asked what
he would take for the gun, James Wil-
bur replied:
“Three cents. Do you want-it?”
The stranger closed the bargain and
The gun, it is
said, is the property of John Richards,
and from all accounts it will never be
returned. The sporting fraternity will
miss this citzen and some may mourn
his quick departure for partsunknown.
Davis is at Lake Waccabuc for a week
and when he hears the story he will
give-forcible vent to his feelings.
