it can safely be said that the Norwalk
players never put up a worse game.

saddled off on two or three players, the
rest either not being in good form or
else unwilling to play ball. The Stam-
fOrdsI played" ball and won a deserved

 

 

victory. The score was as follows:

A Stamford Youth Puts a .;-j-"

Lighted Pipein His IPocIIket.

 

Then He Lay Down to Sleep.

'Sidney Wilmot, ‘11 colored .yo‘uth
whose home 1s in Stamford, narrowly
escaped Ia horrible death on account of
getting drunk, Saturday night. He ii

at the Bridgeport General Hospital .

suffering from burns. which were at

first supposed to be fatal, but which .

have since been found to be only super-
_ Wilmot made the. mistake of
putting a ‘lighted pipe in his pocket
before he went to sleep, and in’ conse-
quence is out asuit of clothes and .is in
for several days of suffering.

At 3:20. yesterday morning the fire-
men it Engine House 5 in Bridgeport
were awakened by loud moans of pain
which proceeded from an alley at the
opposite side of Middle street. A
number of them hastily dressed ‘and

--hurried over to the alley, where young

Wilmot was found lying on the ground
writhing with pain, while volumes of
smoke surrounded h'm. Michael Bly
and Jacob Horkheimer seized Wilmot
and began to tear the clothing off him'
Wilmot was so drunk as not to realize
that they were helping him, and made
resistance. He grabbed! Horkheimer’s
11 mils and pressed them close to his
body, right in the midst of a mass of
ourning .cloth. Horkheimcr’s fingers
were severely burned, and he secured
the release of his hands only by giving
Wilmot a violent thump on the jaw.

The rest of the clothing was then
stripped off Wilmot and the ambulance
was called. While it was on the way an
old shirt and trousers were procured
and served to protect the sufferer from
the chill of the air. He was loaded into
the ambulance and taken tothe Gener-I
al Hospital. His entire suit continued
to burn in the gutter emitting a cloud
of smoke for over an hour.

When Wilmot’ s burns were examined
it was found that they were only superm
ficial. One burn extended over a sur-
face about six inches long and three
inchesgvide on the left side near the
waist. His right leg was burned also.
He rallied from his drunken stupor yes-
terday morning and told the doctors
that he had put his pipe in his pocket
without shaking out the ashes. He was
still under the influence and was Inot
inclined to talk. _

Wilniot Were a pair of» rubberzzbooter
and it was fortunate for him that the
fire had not reached them. Had the
lining of the boots taken fire, his legs

..quu".

would have been burned to the bone» -'

before the boots could have been re-
moved.

It was thought at first that Wilmot
was set afire by jokers while he lay
asleep, but his own story removes any
suspicion of this.
