Notwithstanding the threatening weather a large crowd assembled at Dorlon Point, Decoration Day to wit- ness the regatta of the Oystermen. Landlord Powers was in his element and made everyone at home, the Press especially, who are indebted to him for their royal entertainment, as well as to the Regatta committee, Messrs. Frank H. Wade who looked after the comforts of the Press on the water. Fifteen yachts took part in the regatta, divided into five classes as follows: Class A, Gould Hoyt, Ariel, 27 ft., Charles Toby G. H. 25 ft., and David Nash, Bird, 28 ft. Class B, J. R. Raymond, Julia, 23 ft.; Charles Remsen, Cora, 24 ft.; A. B. Coley, May Queen, 20 ft. Class C, W. Toby, Ada, 34 ft.; A. Reed, 44 ft. Class D, C. E. Woodward, ~Quaker City, 21 ft.; W. Nash Mayflower 20 ft.; G. Bil- lenstine,Sun Beam 18 ft.; Sam Weston, May Queen, 23 ft. Class E, W. E. Os- borne, Undine. 18 ft.; J. P. Crossnian Daisy, 14 ft., and Hezekiah Smith, White Wing, 15 ft. The start and finish was over an im- aginaryline drawn from ,Dorlon Point dock to a stake boat anchored ofi' abreast of said dock. The can buoy on the south-east point of Peach Island Flats was to be left on, the starboard land on the outward course, and the outward turning point for the First, Second, Third and Fourth classes was the Smith’s Ledge buoy ofl' Stamford, about 10 miles. 1 The turning point for the Fifth class was Green’s Reef bell buoy, about 8 miles. Promptly at 1 o’clock, the Press boat Minetta , Commodore John Roberts and Captain Mosher, carried the Judges E. A. Woodwards John H. Richards and Joseph A. Volk out to the stake boat. At 1.15 the signal gun to get ready was fired and ten minutes after the report of the starting gun for the first class was heard, followed at intervals of five minutes by the signal for the other classes, giving each class five minutes in which to cross the line. The following record gives the time of each boat: ' CLASS'A. ‘tart. Finish. II. M. S. H. M. S. H. M. S. H. M. S. Time. ed Time. Gr.

Vogel and Comstock started out, on their wheels Saturday afternoon and had a rapid run down West avenue and across the lower bridge, and up East avenue, and to avoid the cobble stone pavements at the foot of Mill hill, wheeled around North avenue and in coming down the hill at its junction with Main street, and while Mr. Vogel had his feet off his treadles or was “coasting,” as the bicyclists term it, he eSpied a team ahead of him and in en- cleavoring to turn and before he could -catch his treadles again, his wheel got the mastery and dashed him into the iron watering tank. He sustained a fracture of the small bone of his right leg just above the” ankle joint, which will lay him up for some weeks to come, with an uncomfortable limb to nurse. He has the kindliest sympathy not only of. the grand army of enthusi- astic wheelers, but of the entire com- munity in his affliction. ANOTHER. While descending Flax hill, early Saturday evening on a bicycle, Charles Frank, son of Mr. G. A. Franke, met two ladies which seems to have “rat- tled him,” and in order to avert a col- lision he applied the brake too quickly, took a “header,” and was badly bruised on his face, head and hands. He is badly shaken up but expects to be out again all right in a few days. A Good Record. Sheriff Robert L. Clarkson began his new term of office June 1. He has re- ceived his commission from Governor commissions for his deputies for the next four years. The deputies are P. J. Leonard and George F. Wildman, of Bridgeport, Charles M. Doran, of Bethel, Lewis L. Hopkins, of Danbury, Francis M. Pike, of Fairfield, John Day- 'of Huntington,Stephen B. Hayes, of Monroe, aWillia‘m H. Glover, of New.- fown, Jam’es Toner, of Norwalk, Thom- as C. “White, of'Ridgefield', Richard Bolster, of Stamford, Charles B. Our-- tiss,‘ of Stratford, Daniel DrisColl, of Westport, and Frank L: Weed, of New Canaan. The only change made by the Sheriff in his corps of deputies is the addition ing hisiterm more than: a , dozen homi- cides have been committed in the ocun- ty, and every one of the slayers has been captured.

Wednesday evening’s services at the Baptist church, whereby that body of Christian people secured a promising pastor, were of great interest through- out, albeit the efl'ect of the sermon was somewhat marred by the: presence in the congregation of two children who were moved to tears and laughter, al- ternately, during the most impassioned periods of the preacher, and to the evi- dent annoyance of everybody sitting near. ~ . The pulpit and platform were pro- fusely and tastefully adorned With floral bloom, and upon the organ, di- rectly over the organist, appeared the word “Welcome” wrought in what ap- peared to be white carnations. Before the services Miss Paddock played several appropriate organ selections which were much enjoyed by the large congregation. The services were in charge of Rev. A. C. Hubbard, of Danbury, modera- tor of the ordaining council, the other clergymen participating, and the office of each, being as follows: Ordination sermon, Rev. J. W. Richardson, Stam- ford. Charge to the candidate, Rev. W. P. 'Elsdon, Waterbury. Charge to the church, Rev. Dr. A. C. Hubbard, Danbury. Ordination prayer, Rev. Dr. Robert McGonegal. Right hand of Fellowship, Re T. Archibald Wheaton South Norwalk. The sermon by Rev. Mr. Richardson, was one of rare strength and grace of diction. The text was from Second Timothy, second chapter and the nine- ‘teenth verse : “Nevertheless, the foun- dation of God standeth sure, having this seal, the Lord knoweth them that are His. And, let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.” The extremely interesting services, which lasted about two hours, were closed with the benediction by the pas- tor, Rev. F. E. Robbins, who is warm- ly welcomed to Norwalk by people of all denominations, and whose best wishes are with him for a successful ministry. In Trouble Again. Harry Bussing the banjo player is again in trouble. It will be remem- bered that several weeks ago young Bussing stole a diamond ring and about $20 from his parents who live on Ann street, South Norwalk, and skipped to New Canaan, and that he was arrested with his spoils at a sociable in \Vest Norwalk. After his arrest his parents relented and he was discharged. He then went to New Canaan, where he has since lived, but made frequent visits to his home in South Norwalk. On Saturday last Mr. and Mrs. Bus- sing went to New York to stay over Sunday. . Monday Harry effected an entrance into the house and securing his mother’s bank book forged an order for $160, which he collected, and pro- ceeded to expend it at South Norwalk stores. He purchased a new suit of clothes, a pair of patent leather shoes, collars, cufl‘s, underwear, a gold watch, chain, charm and finger ring, silk hat, and a trunk which he had carried to the depot, where he purchased a ticket for Philadelphia. He then visited several saloons and became somewhat intoxicated. He was met by Ellison Makin who remarked on his good clothes, watch, chain, etc. Bussing then made a confidant of Makin and told him how he had gotten the money. Makin then told Art. Waterbury, who in turn spoke to ofiicer Ireland of his suspicions. Ireland went to the sta- tion where he found Bussing awaiting the 4:20 train and placed him under ar- rest, and on searching him found that he still had $70 left. Bussing accounted for the rest of the money with the ex- ception of about $8 which he thinks he spent in the saloons about South Nor- walk. His father did not arrive home until Tuesday morning, and wasdumb- founded at the action of this his only, child. V Young Bussing acts very‘ coolly about the matter. Same morning he was taken before Justice Morrell‘for examination and the case was post- poned until3p. m., at which time he was bound over to the Superior Court for trial. Brother Jonathan's Day. Circulars have been sent out by the Connecticut, Society of the Sons 'of the Revolution inviting them to participate in the ceremonies attending the trans- fer of. Gov. Trumbull’s war office in Lebanon on June 15th, to the custody of the society. The day is to be known as “Brother J onathan’s Day, ” and dis- tinguished people are expected to come - from all parts of this and other states to - the celebration. The war office,- a little one story, gable-roofed structure, in which there were more than 1,100 meetings of the Connecticut Council of Safety in the Revolution, is at the north end of the mile-long green. It belonged to the es- tate of Mrs. Bethla H. Wattles, who not long ago presented it to the Sons of the American Revolution on condition that the society repair and preserve it as ameme'nto of the struggle for inde-e pendence. —Gen. Hawley-~ and Rev. George N. Kellogg of Taftville, will do- liver the chief addresses,and just before Gen. Hawley begins his speech the orig- inal American flag, with 13 stars, will be hoisted atthe: peak of the war oflice.
