John Cox- Suffers an Accident
at South Norwalk.

 

His Ankle Crushed by Car Wheels.

 

John Cox of Chapel street is at the
Norwalk hospital a victim of inJurres
received near the Consolidated railroad
station at South Norwalk last night.

Between 8 and 9 o’clock last night,
Cox attempted to board a train which
was in motion, and slipping fell to the
ground, one of the wheels of a _car pass«
ing over and badly crushing his ankle.
His shoulder was also injured and he
received severe contusione on his head.

The victim was taken into the bag-
gage-room and Dr. Burke summoned,
who ordered the ambulance and the
unfortunate man was taken, to the hos-
pital.

It is understood that Cox entered the
employ of the Consolidated road yester-
day, and had scarcely commenced work
when he suffered the accident which
will at the best incapacitate him for
work for some time. .

Some time ago he sufiered injuries
on the Harlem branch and at the time
threatened to bring suit' against the
company alleging that he “was pushed
from the train by a brakeman.

The man has a wife and three chil-
dren dependent upon him for support.

Narrow tires are read destroyers.

tion. \

Bad roads are a costly public nui-
sance. -

The New Canaan road has not before
in years been in as good condition as

now.

Brains are the one quality most need-
ed in road making,_and this requisite is
now being generally diffused through

the country.

The farmers, some of whom have
been a little bit slow about “getting in
line” with the good roads movement,
are now putting good thought into
active work.

Will Speak Soon.

The gold Democratekwill doubtless
soon hear from the delegates from
Connecticut to the Chicago convention.
Attorney J. D. Toomey, J r., who repre-
sented Fairfield county as its alter-
nate to the convention, said last night
that the delegation would undoubtedly
meet within two weeks to prepare a
statement for the guidance of the Demo-
crats of Connecticut. What the nature
of the statement would be Mr. Toomey
said he could not predict.

An Invulnerable Tire.

Fred M. Brown and Edward J. Bros-
nan, both of Stafford, have made ap-
plication for a patent on a new bicycle

, tire to be made of an entirely new com-
' position. The tire will be absolutely
' invulnerable, a condition which he pro-
ducesl by the combination of rubber
and sheets of steel no thicker than the
finest tissue paper. The tire and the
devices for making it have been shown

 

 

to practical mechanics. who have pro-

nounced it a good thing.
Destroying the Hay Crop.

The ravages of the army worms in
East Hartford are so great that many
farmers cut their hay in the meadows
yesterday. All the crop will be cut this
week to escape the pests. The worms
are working northward and some sec-
tions of the meadows have not been
visited yet. The loss so far is about
one-third of the entire crop. This will
be greatly increased if‘the hay is not
cut at once.

Jewelry Missing.

At Southport, yesterday, John Quir-
ance was arraigned before Justice Perry
on the charge of stealing a quantity of
furniture and some jewelry, the prop
erty of Mrs. Ellen Louise Hartwell of
New York, who has a summer home at
Southport. Probable cause was found
and Quirance was bound over to the
September term of the Superior Court.
He was lodged in jail in default of bonds
of 32,000. ‘ .

“Isabel.” the steamer will be illum-
inated by electricity. It will leave the

pauk willlbe at South Norwalk on the

tion of all.

eons TO BRIDGEPORT.

Danny McCann Sent Over the Road'by
Judge Hubbell.

 

Some time since Samuel Morehouse
of East Norwalk missed from a tool
chest two saws and a carpenter’s com-
pass. About the same time Constable
Allen apprehended a .man with saws
and compass and at once thought from
the fellow’s actions that they were
stolen goods, but as he claimed to be a
carpenter and told a plausible story he
let him go. Constable Allen had not at
the time heard of the theft. After
learning later that Morehouse had lost
the articles above mentioned he gave a
description of the party which fitted to
an» almost positive identity, Daniel
McCann. While enjoying a siesta on
Main street, yesterday afternoon, Dan-
ny was placed under arrest and taken
to the station house. This morning in
the Town Court he pleaded not guilty
to the theft, was found guilty and fined
$7 and costs and given thirty days in
jail.

A Hard Bed.

Early this morning a stranger in town
haileda GAZETTE reporter and asked
to be directed to “Little Dublin.” He
was lame and compelled to walk slowly.
He said that he came from Newark to
see a friend, and took a little more
“schnaps” than was good for him. He
was, he said, being followed by some
“thugs or suckers” when the police
chased him off of Wall street, and pro-
ceeding down Water street he made
his bed on a pile of stones in a vacant
lot on Leonard street. He thought he
would be able to reach his friend’s
house about noon when he would have
the wrinkles pressed out of his clothing.

Dumped Out.

William Connolly representing an
industrial insurance company was driv-
ing near the 14-acre pond at Cranbury,

 

 

wheels struck a rock and William was
unceremoniously dumped into the
street. The horse recognized the fact
that it was a hot day and did not run
away. The driver escaped injury and
getting upon his feet looked around to
see if there were any reporters around.
Of course he didn’t see any, and get-
ting into the carriage drove on.

Had A Fine Time.

The Block Island excursioniets report
having had a glorious time yesterday.
The only set-back was a delay at Say-
brook Junction caused by a rupture in
some part of the machinery of the loco-
.motive attached to the excursion train.
E few of the excursionists got 011‘ at
New London' for the reason, as Mr.
kThomas COoney avers, that they were
afraid to venture any nearer the Atlan-
tic ocean.

A Pulpit Sensation.

Sunday, Rev. E. F. Acheson, rector
of Holy Trinity Episcopal church of
Middletown, and a prominent Demo-
crat, electrified his congregation by
closing his sermon with the words:
"The present time calls for all patriots
to unite to prevent the further coinage
of fifty cent dollars or the placing of a
boy in the chair occupied by Washing-
ton, Lincoln and Garfield."

 

 

 

Going To Hartford.

To-day will be a banner day in Hart-
ford, for the Knights Template of the
state. Washington commannery will
celebrate its 100th anniversary and in
addition to this the new Masonic tem-
ple will be dedicated. The celebration
will probably be the grandest of its
kind that has ever taken place in the
state. All commanderies of the state
have been invited.

Middletown’s Mayor Bolts.
Mayor Russell, one of the most
prominent democrats of Middletown,
announced yesterday that he intends to
vote for McKinley and Hobart. He
says he cannot stand on the platform
adopted at Chicago, nor can he asa

democrat vote for the nominees.

Tired of Living.

“I am tired and want to go to sleep,”
said Delia O’Connor to her sister at. 11
o’clock yesterday morning, at their
house in Bridgeport. She had taken
morphine with suicidal purpose, and
her desire was granted for at 4:30 o’clock
she went to a long sleep.

BANGEOflt‘ WIFE. .

The Police Looking for Edgar
Hubbell on the Charge-
of Assault.

Heis an Old Offender.

Mrs. Edgar Hubbell complained to
the police last night that her husband
had assaulted her with his fist, knock-
ing her down, and had then V, kicked
her.

Constable Samuel Ireland went to
East Norwalk where the Hubbells live
and Mrs. Hubbell again repeated her
story. Ireland was unsuccessfulin 8p-
prehending the man, and it is said he
has skipped out of town.

It is‘not the first or second time that
Mrs. Hubbell has made similar com-
plaints against her husband, and as
soon as he is placed under arrest she re-
lents and either begs for his release or
pays his fine. -

By such action on her part she has
lost much sympathy which she would
otherwise receive.

It is to be hoped that this time if he
is arrested he will receive such punish-
ment as he seems to be entitled to and
that is a term in jail.

A wife-beater is a brute deserving
of the sympathy of no one.

Eighty.Seven Towns Apply and Will Get
$950 Each cfthe Appropriation.

The State Highway Commissioners
are now making allotments to towns
for work on the highways. The time
for making application for a share of
the State appropriation expired July 1,
but the commissioners extended the
time a few days longer to enable those
towns that were'unavoidably prevented
from making application within the
time set, to take advantage of the law.
Eighty-seven toWns have made the ap-
plicatiOn. This number is a trifle over
one-half the number of towns in the
State. Each town will receive at least
$950 as its share of the State appropria-
tion, according to a statement made by
Commissioner A. C. Sternberg. The
towns of Fairfield County, which will
receive the appropriation, are:

Darien, Easton, Fairfield, Greenwich,
Huntington, New Canaan, Norwalk,
Ridgefield, Stamford, Stratford, Trum-
bull, Westport, Wilton.

Last year the appropriation to- each
town was $980. The difference -this
year is accounted for by the fact that
about seven more towns have applied
fora share of the appropriation than
last year. Nearly all the towns that
received money last year have applied
this year.

MANSFIELD FOUND.

 

Rufus Ruscoe’s Missing Farm Hand Still
on Earth.

 

Walter Mansfield, employed op a farm
at North Wilton' and who had been
missing since last Thuasday, and whose

absence led tO‘ the belief that he had '

been drowned in Grupe’s reservoir,
where he was seen last on Thursday
afternoon, has been found. ‘

When discovered he lay in a semi-
stupor near the point where his friends
were under the impression that he had
fallen into the water. On being aroused
he was unable to give any connected
story as to where he had been, all
recollection as to what had happened to
him between 3 o’clock and the time at
which he was found being a blank.

He said that he took a few drinks in
Norwalk, and is inclined to think that
he was given some knock-out drops. '

This latter conclusion looks plausible
as he was knocked out of the sight of
his family and friends for the space of
four days. -

A Remarkable Lighthouse.

The most extraordinary of all light-
houses is to be found on Armish Rock,
Stornoway Bay—a. rock which is sep-
arated from the Island of Lewis by a.
channel over 500 feet wide. It is in the
Hebrides, Scotland. On this rock a.
conical beacon is erected, and on its
summit a lantern is fixed, from which,
night after night, shines a light which
seen by the fishermen far and wide,
says “Tit-Bits.” Yet there is no burn-
ing lamp, and no attendant ever goes to
it, ferthe simple reason that there is
no lamp to attend to, no wick to trim,
and no oil-well to replenish.

 

 

* - The way in which this peculiar light-

house is illuminated is this: “On the
Island of Lewis, 500 feet or so away, is a
lighthouse, and from a window in the
tower a stream of light id projected on
a mirror in the lantern in the summit of
Armish rock. These rays are reflected to
an arrangement of prisms, and by their
actions are converged to a. focus outside
the lantern, from where they diverge in
the necessary direction.” The conse—
quence is that to all intents and pur-
poses a lighthouse exists which has nei-
ther lamp nor lighthouse-keeper, and
yet which gives as serviceable a light,
taking into account the requirements of
this locality, as if an elaborate and cost-
ly lighthouse, with lamps, service-room,
bedroom, living-room, storeroom, one
room, water‘ tanks. and all other acces-
series were erected on the summit of
the rock. =

The Retort Courteous.

The investigators whose names ap-
pear in the newspapers in connection
with the Roentgen ray experiments are
a good deal bothered by applications
from peOple who imagine they have
bullets or other unpleasant foreign sub-
stances in various parts of_ their anat‘
omy.

The story goes that not long ago a
certain local scientist received the fol-
lowing letter:

“Dear Sir: I have had a bullet in my
thorax for seven years. I am too busy
to come to Cleveland, but hope you will
be able to come down here and locate
the bullet, as I am sure the case is
worth your while. If you can’t come
yourself, send your apparatus, and I
will get one of the doctors here to use
it. 'Yours truly, ”

Here is the local man’s reply: ,

“Dear Sir: Very sorry I cannot find
time to visit you. Nor will I be able to
send my apparatus. If you can’t come
to Cleveland yourself, send- me yopr
thorax by express, and I will do the best
I can with it. Yours truly, ”

And there the correspondence'closed.

Stirring Meetings Held hythe Chris-
tian Endeavorers.

FINAL DAY OF THE SESSION.

A Minister Bitter-1y Attacks Mr. Terrell,
r the United States llIfnister to Tur-
( key—Heart Stirring Appeals. ’
A Dramatic Eplsode.

WASHINGTON, July 14.——Today was the
last day of the fifteenth annual convention
of the international Christian Endeavor
convention. The weather was all that
could be expected in the middle of sum-
mer. The skies were clear, and, although
the sun shone warmly, the heat was tem-
pered by a smart northwest breeze‘that
encouraged thousands of the visitors to
venture forth from their church headquar-
ters and tents between services on short
visits to see the sights of the city which
they had been prevented from reaching be-
fore. The purpose Of the committee in
arranging the programme for the day had
been to wind up with a. revival eflort, and
to this end “consecration” was the keynote
of the day’s work.

The early morning prayer meetings in
the 30 and more churches which form the
rallying points of the various state delega-
tions were devoted to this topic, the even-
ing services in the eight meeting places
with the same Object. The meetings in
the tents, although‘primarily in the na-
ture of international rallies, were also
strongly tinctured by the evangelistic
spirit. President G. S. Burroughs, D. D.,
Of Crawfordsvllle, Ind, conducted a Bible
book study in the New York Avenue Pree-
byterian church.

In Aid of Armenia.

In two of the tents the world’s union of
the Christian Endeavor controlled the
whole of the morning programme, while
in the third Armenia formed the sole topic

,Of discussion, so that ln no case did the

purely national union figure in the morn-
ing proceedings. The day's exercises were
thus relieve/.1 from any appearance of 1110-
notony by the contrast with whathas gone
before, and the congregations listened
with interest to the foreign speakers, with
their strange-names and peculiar accents.
In Tent Washington the Armenian relief
movemen' had full sway, and the commit-

tee math/.1 of the opportunity presented by ,

a numerous audience to put forward their
strongest and most persuasive speakers to
secure proizl.ses and pl€dges of pecuniary
aid and moral support for their cause.
The Rev. Wayland Hoyt of Philadelphia
presided.

A Pretty Episode.

Addresses were delivered by Rev. F. D.
Greene of Van, Armenia; Miss Rebecca
Krikerlan of Aintab, Turkey, the scene of
the massacres, and Miss Margaret Leitch
of Jaffna, Ceylon. The last named made
a strong impression on the enthusiastic
audience by closing her speech with an
eloquent appeal to Americans to aid the
Armenians, typified by her encompassing
Miss Krikerian in the folds of the Ameri-
can flag. A feature of the proceedings in
this tent was the address delivered by Rev.
B. Fay Mills of Fort Edward, N. Y.. in
which he treated the Armenian question
from its aspect as an international afi'alr
andgnve his views as to the proper atti-
tude Of the United States toward it. In
the course of his speech he made hostile
allusions to United States Minister Ter-
rell because the latter had advised the
withdrawal of the American missionaries
from points of danger in Armenia and
criticised, bitterly the president and the
administration for failure to interfere in
Turkey while, as he alleged, fomentlng a.
quarrel with Great Britain over Venezuela.

President Clark presided over the meet-
ing in Tent Wllliston, which was addressed
by Rev. Joseph Brown Morgan Of Eng-
land, Rev. Jesse M. Yonan of Persia,
Rev. George P. Goll of Africa and J. G.
Hildner of Germany.

In Tent Endeavor Treasurer William
Shaw of Boston presided, and the speak-
ers were Rev. Arnold Streull of England,
S. C. K. Putnam of India, Bishop J. M.
Thoburn of India, Rev. W. H. Towers of
England and Rev. H. S. Jennanyan of Ar-
menla. A feature of the proceedings in
this tent was the presentation on behalf of
the national trustees of a. beautiful red,
white and blue banner to Mr. Shand,
chairman of the entertainment committee,
as a token of appreciation of the hospital-
ity with which the local union has received
the visiting delegates. The members of
the various committees which have done

- somuch to make the convention a success,

headed by Chairman W. H. Smith, were
brought forward in each tent and intro-
duced to the audiences in appropriate re-
marks by the presidlng officers.

At the adjournment a large evangelistic
meeting was held in the Central Union
mission. '

For Observance of a "Bird Day.”

WASHINGTON, July 14.—An appeal for
the observance of a. "bird day” in the
schools throughout the country has been
made by the agricultural department.
The object is to set apart a day once a
year, .or to combine it with Arbor day,
for instruction in the value of our native
birds and the means of protecting them
from wanton destruction. The idea orig-
inated with Superintendent of Schools
Babcock of 011 City, Pa. It has already
been adopted in two cities, Oil City and
Port Madison, Ia.

Would Be Murderer a Suicide.

BARRE, Vt., July 14.—Mrs. George
Judd, whowas shot by her insane husband
Saturday night, is reported out'of danger
today. Judd, who was captured and taken
to Montpellier jail after the shooting, took
a dose of morphine with suicidal intent
and died soon afterward. The drug was
probably concealed about his clothing.

‘ An Electric Plant Burned.

DENVER, July 14.——The plant of the
Denver Consolidated Electric Light com-
pany was burned. The building contained
16 engines, valued at $5,000 each. The
fire was caused by a live wire crossing the
switchboard. The total loss is $130,000;
insured for $120,000. -
