The case of the State vs. Mrs. Henry

adjourned until next Saturday. The

fails to attend school regularly. The
lad is 14 years of age. It is stated that
Mrs. Raymond wrote to the principal
asking if he would not kindly arrange
it so that the boy need not reach the
schOol in the morning until 9:30a and
terdav. aged one mduth. The funeral :that she received. a not very pleasing

my and Then Stole a f
Package of Hats.
Gathered .in by the Chief and Captain.
'Late yesterday afternoon Chief Voll-
mer was approached by a citizen who
complained that two men apparently
“hoboes,” were stopping people on the
street and begging for money.
Captain Gladstone happened along
about the same time and in company
of the chief they watched for the par-
ties complained of. And they did not
have long to wait before getting on
their track.
Twojmen answering the {description
were seen by the officers to sidle up in
front of a dummy inn front of Davis’
clothing store and while one kept a
lookout the other proceeded to un-
button the coat on the dummy. At
this time messenger George Selleck
came up and going into Plaisted’s drug
store left a package on the sidewalk.
The men espied the package and
leaving the dummy picked up the
package and dodged into the alleyway
at the rear of Mahackemo Hotel closely
followed by Chief Vollmer who made
:a grab and secured both men.
. Captain Gladstone came to the scene
and taking one of the men in charge
started for the station house with him.
When under the railroad bridge the
fellow resisted, and gave the Captain 9.
stinging thwack in the face with his
fist and received one in return from
a club in the hands of the officer. Of
course he was landed in the cage at the
station house where he gave his name
as Frank Clark of New Haven. It was
found that he had receiveda severe
wound on his head and Dr. J. T.
Kennedy was summoned and properly
dressed it.
The Chief’s prisoner was placed in an
adjoining cell without little or no
trouble. He gave his name as John
Kelly and residence as Bridgeport. He
had a four pound spar-crib in his pos-
session. ‘
This morning both men were put to
plea in the Town Court before Judge
Hubbell. The charges against Clark
were intoxication and theft. He was
fined 37 and costs. -
Kelly was fined $5 and costs for in-
toxication and given thirty days in jail
for theft.
Both men were taken to Bridgeport
jail.

’ William Loudcn Under
Arrest.
Prisoner Taken to Station House in a
Wagon.
William London attended the enter-
tainment at the Opera House last even-
ing, and is credited with having an-
noyed some of the audience present by
his remarks, which seemed to be more
especially directed against Officer
Thomas Hunt who was on duty at that
place at the time. .
The Officer went to London and asked
him to keep quiet, and received an abu-
sive answer. He then told London that
unless he kept quiet he must go out.
He then called Hunt a vile name, and
the officer grappled with him and dealt
him, a blow that laid him low.
As Hunt was putting the handcuffs on
his prisoner, London revived and at-
tempted to again resist when he was
again given a thwack from the club and
rendered insensible. He was then
lugged out on to the street, placed in a
wagon and taken to the station-house.
This morning, he pleaded guilty to
intoxmation, breach of. the peace, re-
sistance to officer: and abusive lan-
guage for all of which he received a fine
and costs amounting to $23.31 in default
of- which he was taken to jail.

bin had become sofamiliar during the
summer with the East avenue trolley
cars, that they ceased to awaken any
interest in his subtle mind, but since
cold weather set in he has acted like all
p assessed whenever he met an oncoming
car. He would follow behind quietly
enough, but when meeting a car com-
ing towards him, he gave way to fright.
The deacon set himself to discover the
cause of this new development of his
hOrse’s ctfliduct and'found it to be the

ployed now. .
Then an engineer should be engaged
permanently whose duty it should be,‘
not only to look after the engine but
everything belonging to the fire depart-
ment.
' Now I think these ideas suggested
should be adopted, but that in doing so
we should have some understanding
with the insurance companies, that our
rates should be lowered, and if that
cannot be had they should not be
marked up every time a large fire oc-
cursiin a distant city. ‘ '
In the matter of insurance NorWalk
has suffered in rates by reason of fires
at South Norwalk, for' immediately
after the Bates fire our rates were
raised, although our showing for losses
in the fire line was nominal.
The working of the highway and fire
departments together is not a new
idea. Nearly all of our cities have
worked that way from a volunteer to a
call department and finally a paid
department. This was the case with
Stamford, Bridgeport and other cities
which could be named,
After incurring the expense of pur-
chasing horses the expense ends, as in
most cases of this kind the city has
made money and has had some one
whose duty it is to takes care of the city
property in the hands of the fire de-
partment. ' '
As I said in the start it was my in-
tention to bepresent but 'an engagement
forbids. Respectfully yours,
‘ J. T. PBOWITT, Chief.

which afforded prOmpt relief.—B. F. BAKER,
