The Glorious Fourth Duly Db-
, served in Norwalk.

 

The Usual Chapter of Accidents.

 

The Fourth.

The one hundred and twentieth anni-
versary of our National life was cele-
brated hereabouts in the usual way.
On theFourth of July we are a noisy
Nation. From Maine to Texas the air
is murky with burnt gun-powder.
President Adams recommended that
the day be ushered iiwith cannon,
celebrated with hilariouspleasures and
closed with infinite gratitude. His ad.
vice has been strictly followed.

We all recognize the fact. that under
the racket and turbulence of the day is
the largest political idea that ever
manifested itself to mankind. The
people may safely let themselves loose
for this One day. 'The Fourth is a
grand National occasion, with a huge
idea in it, aside from all the rockets
and bombs and firecrackers.

 

Accidents.

Saturday morning Courtlandt Van-
Buren burned his hand quite severely
with a large firecracker. As if this was
not enough, he in the afternoon acci-
dentally shot a blank cartridge at the
same hand. The wound was dressed by
Dr. Dexter Hitchcook.

A man with a badly bruised and
bloody face was found early Saturday
morning on the driveway near the Jones
A: Hotchkiss store. Whether he was
struck by a trolley car, some one’s fist
or a telegraph pole, could not be
learned.

Willie O’Donnell of Hoyt street while
touching off a cannon was severely
burned about the-face with powder. He
was cared for 1051131.. Bakers. .

A lad named Gambin was hit on the
face with a torpedo, Friday night and
received a severe burn"close to one of
his eyes.

‘ A woman stepped from a moving
Tramway car on Riverside avenue last
evening and falling, received some
slight scratches on her face and hands.

Joseph Koncy, of Wood street, South
Norwalk, received a chargein the index
finger of his left hand from a small can-
non' and was sent to the hospital where
Dr. Burke assisted by Dr. Tracey am-
putated the injured finger. -

Henry Baldwin a 15 year old Cran-
bury lad was severely burned on the
face Saturday by the explosion of a fire-
cracker. .

A little Italian girl was shot in. the
fieshy part of her leg, on Clay street,
South Norwalk Saturday, by. a young
man who was carelessly shooting a red
volver loaded with bullets. Dr. Du-
mortier took the child to Stamford,
Saturday night and located the bullet
by means of the xrrays. An operation
for the removal of the bullet will be
performed to-day.

Charles Warner of Washington street,
South Norwalk, received a charge of
powder in the face from a small cannon.
He visited Dr. Clarke and had his in-
juries dressed after which he returned
home and tried the cannon again with
the result that he received another
charge full in the face. He again

visited Dr. Clarke and had it picked
out.

Clifford Judson, son of Amos Judson
of SouthNorwalk, played with a small
cannon and received a charge full in
the face. One eye was injured and his
face badly marked. He visited Dr.
Burwell and received medical attend-
ance.

At Putnam Hose house Friday
night, after the clam bake, a visiting
fireman from Portchester pulled out
his revolver to celebrate. The weapon
was loaded with ball cartridge and at
the first fire the bullet struck Ernest
Wilson in the left leg below the knee
and glancing from the bone lodged in
the muscles of the calf. Dr. Dumortier
was called and removed the bullet, and
young Wilson is getting along nicely at
his home on Union street.

 

Tornadoes.

There were a good many drunks on
the street, Saturday. '

Special ofi‘icer Hunt mounted on a bi-
cycle kept a good lookout for fires on
Friday and Saturday night. "

The lads kindled a large fire on Main
street just as the clocks struck 12, Fri-
day night. . ' .

The Pioneer boys kept open house all
night Friday night and entertained
callers with sandwiches and other re-

lfreshments. In the parlors there were
recitations singing, etc.

’ A feline at the Corner Drug store
which it was expected would attend
strictly to the business of catching, ro-
dents celebrated the Fourth on the
Fifth by gallivanting through an- array
of bottles in the show window and
sadly mixing up the same.

A number of patriotic youngsters
pitched several tents about the
George W. Raymond residence on
Union Place, and established what they
called Camp Raymond. “Old Glory”
was floated from a high flag-staff and
was very much in evidence all about
the camp. There was martial music,
booming of cannons, etc., and the two'
days’ encampment wound up with re-
freshments and a big display of fire-
works in the evening. Raymond Jr.,

and his friends had a great time and

they enthused in no small degree the
patriotism of the whole neighborhood.

In the morning base ball game at
Norwalk Park the Stamfords beat the
Norwalks by a score of 5'to 1. The
afternoon game was also won by. the
Stamfords by a score of_ 10 to 5. The
N orwalk nine showed lack of practice.

Some youthful celebraters-tore down

a picket fence in front of Michael
Regan’s house on Cross street Friday
night.
. A large number of people visited
Gregory’s Point on Saturday, and of
course had a thoroughly enjoyable
time. Rotou Point also received its
share of visitors. ‘

The Norwalk Street Railway com
pany furnished power for the Tramway
company at this section of the com-
pany’s line on Saturday.

Quite a number of people from this
city went to Glen Island on Saturday
and again on Sunday.

Escapes the Reform School.

Johnny Tanner who was under arrest
for an alleged theft in Wilton was taken
to that place on Friday by Officer More-
house, where he was tried before Jus-
tice Rose. There was evidence of guilt
but Rev. S. H. Watkins interceded for

making friends and he was remanded
into the" custody of Mr. Watkins for
two weeks who thought he would in the
meantime be able to secure a home for
the boy.
place, the lad who is not quite 16 years
of age, will be sent to the Reform
school. While he may not be of a vis-
cious nature, ittis certain that he some'
how manages to get into some kind of
trouble quite frequently.

Fair Play.

Many complaints have come to this
office, at the bad and unsafe condition
in which it was alleged the Tramway
Company had left the Wilson Point
road in many places. Selectman Sel-
leck assures us that the Tramway Com-
pany have done and are doing all that
is possible to do, and is doing it as fast
as is possible, to fix up the roadbed of
this thoroughfare and that when their
work is finished, the Wilson Point road
will be better than it ever was before.
It is only “fair play” to waitalittle
until the railway people have a chance
to work the repairs and improvements
they promise.

Popular Excursion.

Those who participated in the Popu-
lar Excursion to Block Island, given

BIG BLAZE AVERTED.

A Main Street Block Threat-
ened with Destruction.

 

William Boerner Prevents a Conflagration
and is Severely Burned.

 

William Boerner who recently pur-
chased the Adams saloon in the Olm.
stead building on Main street and who
has christened it the Palm cafe, had
quite a lively experience last night, an
experience that makes him almost as
helpless as a child in feeding himself.

Mr. Boerner and his wife are tempor-
arily living in rooms over the cafe.
About 10 o’clock last night he went in-
to his room and striking a match lighted
a lamp, and was about taking ofi‘ his
coat when his attention ‘was attracted
to the barking of his pet dog.

Turning around he saw that a
macreme tidy was ablaze and hastily
peeling off his coat attempted to smother
the flames with the same. In some un-
fortunate manner he dropped the coat,
and fearing that the flames would
spread thoughtlessly fought them with
his bared hands, and succeeded in put-
ting them eut. -

The smart from the burns on his
hands then almost crazed him. In the
meantime his wife had come to the res-
cue and she did all in her power to al-
leviate the sufferings of her husband.‘

Dr. Walter Hitchcock was summoned
and dressed the burns, and to-day Mr.
Boerner is carrying both hands around
swathed in cotton and cooling lotions.

'But he extinguished the fire and pre-
vented what might have developed into
a conflagration.

 

Yale Resolute.

The Yale boys at Henley are wisely
not over confident of success, yet firmly
resolute. In one thing only, do they
seem-to have been in luck. That was
in drawing the fovorite position on the
river for the various heats to begin to-
morrow.

There will be three days’ racing, in

remarkable work. In‘the first place,
the ciew is pitted against Leander fol
the first heat, and, of course, if they
lose, this is the end of the contest so far
as America is concerned. Yale has,
however, the best position in the heat,
that on the Bucks side, which is of
some advantage, and may give a chance
to win.

' If the Yale crew succeed in wresting
victory from the Leanders on the. first
day, they will then have to try conclu-
sions on the second day with either
New College or Trinity Hall, and New

as a crew than Leander. London and
First Trinity have the course for the
third day. The two first'days of the
contest will decide Yale’s chances. If
they come out of these ordeals success-
fully they may carry off the cup.

 

Patriotic Services.

At the First Congregational church
yesterday there was a large congrega-
tion present in spite of the heat and the
morning hour was devoted to the ob-
servance of Holy Communion and
eight persons were received into mem-
bership. In the evening there was a
patriotic service with special music by
the choir and a discourse by the Pastor
upon “The American Doctrine of Free

Speech.”

. Runaway.

A horse belonging to Liveryman
Daun was carelessly left unhitched on
Plymouth avenue, Saturday evening,
and becoming frigtened at the explo-
sion of a pack of firecrackers ran away.
The animal sped down Main street to
Wall and made for the peanut stand on
the south side of the street, where he
slipped and fell, and was led back to
the stable. '

NEW MAIL BOXES.

canvassers Visit The Twin
Cities and Take Plenty
of Orders.

 

 

inquiries at the Post Offices for the Money.

 

For the past week a smooth talking
oanvasser has been going about this
city and South Norwalk taking orders
for a mail box for the reception of mail
matter. At each house the following
circular signed by W. H. Martin, was

left:
. NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.

The‘Letter Carriers’ friends of. this
city wish to impress upon the citizens
the great importance of prov1ding them-
selves with a place for the reception of
their mail matter. They will not only
assist in the more rapid working of the
Department, but will enable _everyone
to receive their mail earlier, insure the
safe delivery of letters when tempor-
arily absent, save annoyance_to the
household. and assist in making our
rapid delivery a permanent success.

By having a letter-plate or box at-
tached to your front or side doors, you
will greatly facilitate the free delivery
system, lighten the burdens and shorten
the hours of the letter-carriers, which
are new very long, owing to the people
not attending to their doors promptly;
and we hope that the people of this, as
in other cities will take pity on the
carriers and not cOmpel them to wait,
in the cold and storm, the__ convenience
of the people to open their doors. If
the arrier has to ring ‘ and wait the
open ng of the door at every place
where he delivers, it is no exaggeration
to say that one minute will be wasted at
every! house, and as a carrier has from
twot three hundred letters to deliver
(the uses with places for the reception
of letters being far from numerous) the
great’ delay caused by the absence of
lette boxes is apparent, and a very
serio s inconvenience is the result.

Washington, Feb. 1. 1896.—Postmaater Gen-
eral . lson has re-affirmed the order of Post-
maste‘ General Wanamaker directing D0513-
masters,(postal clerks and carriers to recomi
mend tn urge upon householders the use of
mail (1 positories.‘

Au orized parties will call on you
with eference to the same, and will
provi e Letter-plates or boxes at a very
smallg‘cost. Yours truly.

' The next day he again called and
bargained for a mail box which was to
be furnished for five years for the small
sum of twenty-five cents. Quite a num-
ber jumped at the offer and paid the
money and received in return the fol-
lowing receipt: _

Received of No. Street, the sum
of Twenty-Five Cents, being rent in full
for the term of Five‘years, of One Mail
Receiving Box. Said Box must be
taken care of, and not wilfully damaged;
is Transferable from one house to an-
other, and Will be placed in position by
lessors at their earliest convenience,

, P. C. QUINN Agent.

After giving the receipt the canvas-
ser departed promising to have the mail
box placed in position at once, but
noting has been seen of the man or box
since. ‘

Alarge number of subscribers have
kept the matter to themselves but not a
few have called at the post offices and
made inquiries, but could learn noth-
ing further than that the fiice . knew
nothing about the man or the boxes.

Following the first another man made
his apparence in South Norwalk this
morning. This stranger has a number
of; mail boxes which he is endeavoriug

 

to; dispose of at $1.25 each. He inti-"

mates that the first man was a fraud
but that he is all right as he proposes to
deliver the box on receipt of the_money.

A Hearse Struck by a Tram-
way Ca‘r at Darien.

The Casket Partially Thrown Out.

 

A few days since a man employed on

a coal barge fell through the hatchway
of the boat and sustained injuries from
which he died at the home of a man
named Filsinger, in Stamford, on
Thursday. .- ~ .
' The man’s name was Thomas Allen
and he belonged in New Jersey. His
friends were advised of the accident
and visited him previous to his death.

On Friday afternoon the body was
placed in a coffin under the direction
of Funeral Director Burchard.

As the funeral cortege was about to
enter the gate at the Darien cemetery
the driver of the hearse, it is stated,
guided his horses directly in front of a
Tramway car and before the motorman
could stop the car it struck the hearse
and swung it around, causing the doors
to the same to open and partially throw
the coffin and \the body out onto the
street. A
The motorman saw that it was impos-
sible to avert a collision but promptly
shut 011' the yower reducing to a Cl rtain
extent the force of the blow given by
the car, and no doubt saved the wreck-
ing of the hearse, and the tumbling of
the body into the street. '

The driver of the hearse retained his
hold on the lines and prevented the
horses from running away.

The mourners who were in the car-
riages were horified when they saw
that the car would surely stzike the
hearse but breathed a sigh of relief
when they found that the accident was
not. of a more serious nature.

Matters were quickly righted, and
the fun: rat proceeded on its way into
the cemetery where the body was final-
ly placed in its last resting place with
proper Ceremonies. ,

The reporter is informed that the car
was in charge of Motorman Smith and
Oonduotm- Seamanandthat no} blame
is attached to either for the accident.
