its Books and Pictures Aocounted
For.
Dr Munson’s Administration to be
Investigated by Inspector—Gen-
eral Averill.
Tuesday, at the request of Govern—
or Bulkeley the Editor of the DAILY
GAZETTE visited the State Soldiers’
Home at Noroton for the purpose of
examining the official records of the
_ Home and ascertaining the facts as to
the clandestine taking away of the valu-
able collection of books, pictures, Szc.
There were present there Generals Em-
bler, F. E. Camp and XVhite, Judge A.
B. Beers of Bridgeport, Surgeon-Gen.
Hungerford of Stamford, the new Su-
perintendent Capt. James M. Coe. and
the late Superintendent. Dr. Munson.
The‘investigation, hurriedly made,
had reference only to the charges that
books. pictures and other property of
the Home had been improperly abstract-
ed, as charged by members of Doug—
las Fowler Post, G. A. R. The first
matter considered was a certain picture,
alleged to have been sent to Bridge-
port and now in the possession of Judge
Beers. The official record of the meet-
ings of the Board showed that at a
meeting of the Board held on the 20th
day of December, 1887, a picture named
“The Lambs,” the canvass of which had
been accidentally torn, was ordered
sold. No one had been found to pur-
chase it, when on June 1st, 1880, a vote
of the Board was taken (Beers not vot-
ing) that Judge Beers’ offer of $25 for
the picture be accepted. Beers paid
the money, and to divert the attention
of the inmates, as he says, from him- '
self as a member of the Board, he had it
addressed to his friend, Lawyer L. K. '
Gould, of Bridgeport. He had the pic-
ture repaired, and it is now hanging in
his parlor as charged by the G. A. R.
investigators. This money was passed
to the credit of the “Benjamin Fitch
permanent fund,” as it is called. This
exhibit of record and the Board’s action
completely exonerates Judge Beers
from any impropriety in connection
with that picture and this is the only
picture so far as is known, that has
been taken from the Home. The old
Picture Gallery had to be dismantled
from a forced necessity of using it as
a dormitory and the paintings were
taken out, numbered and. are safely
stored away in an upper story room to
the number of 159, where they now are.
Upon the managing Board taking
possession of the Home and meeting
the necessity of removing the pictures
from the gallery, they called in three
art experts, headed by David B. Secor
of Bridgeport, who was at the head of
the Art Department at the New Or-
leans Exposition, 1884—5, and had them
scheduled and appraised. These ex-
perts, at the time, took the paintings
one by one and carefully considered
their probable merchantable value and
recorded their judgment that the whole
159 could not be sold for a total sum ex-
ceeding $1,500. So here goes into thin
air the cherished tradition, originally
promulgated, as we know, by the found-
er of the Home, Mr. Benjamin Fitch,
that they had cost him, (together with
the marble statue of the returned sol-
dier greeting his child for which he said
he paid Larkin G. Mead $515,000,) a sum
total of $60,000. It was found there were
no pictures by any eminent artist, and
most of the work was of coarse and
very inferior artistic execution, show-
ing that Mr. Fitch, if he had ever paid
any great sum for them, was as poor a
judge of art as he must have been reck-
less in his purchases. There were a few
fine and costly paintings ascertained to
be at the private home of Mr. Fitch at
the time of his death, said tohave been
purchased at the same time thoseat the
Soldiers’ Home were, and shipped there
with them, but with such as these the
Board had nothing to do.
Their responsibility began and ended
with a proper inventory and care of
those that came into their hands as
guardians of the State’s interest in the
property. And so far as all facts and
records were made to show, they stand
fully exonerated from any charge of
malfeasance, or even carelessness in the
care of the State’s property. So much
for the pictures. There was a miscel-
laneous collection of books, none of
special value, many in broken sets,
most of them entirely unsuited to the
wants of the inmates of the Home.
A vote was passed to sell them, but to
date they have been unable to dolso and
they are all in and about the home.
There are nineteen engravings also
stored away, as useless to the needs of
the Home. The book case sold for $5
turns out to have been a cumbersome,
rickety pine one, grained in walnut,
and as it was in the way, it was sold by
vote of the managers; as old lumber,
and the $5 turned-into the Home Treas-
ury and duly credited on the books.
The matter of Dr. Munson’s admin-
istration was not gone into. The state—
ment being made that the Board had
‘by unanimous resolution, invited Gen-
Averill, the inspector of National and
State Soldicrs’ Homes, to investigate
the Home and Dr. Munson’s entire
management and that his report should
be given to the“ public. '
Every Courtesey was shown the GA-
znrrn representative. and every possi-
ble effort ma he to prove to him the
erroneous ooncmsions to which the.
of necessity, partial investigations,
made by different members of Douglas
Fowler Post, had led them. No un-
kind word was spoken on either side
and no unkind feeling manifested.
The one sole purpose sought by all par-
ties unquestionably being, to get at the
exact truth, the whole truth and noth-
ing but the truth.
Another Fake.
The Bridgeport Farmer: on Tuesday
published what purported to be, but is
not, a report of the meeting of the
Board of Managers at the Noroton Sol-
diers’ Home, yesterday. It also errone-
ously says :
“This meeting was held for the pur-
pose of hearing the report of A. H.
Byington, of Norwalk, recently ap-
. pointed a committee to investigate the
fcharges which he had made against
the management of the Soldiers’ ome
,1 under the superintendency of Dr.
. Munson. While not exactly a “star
fchamber” session it was intended to
have the meeting as secret as possible.
1 Exactly what transpired. and how far
; Mr. Byington succeeded in convincing
; the members of the board of the truth-
? fulness of his allegations will not be
, known or made public until the official
report is made, which'is not likely to
' occur .until Governor Bulkeley returns
from his vacation two weeks hence.
That Mr. Byington met with rather a
cool’reception is indicated from a re-
mark made by a member of the board
iii the hearing of the Farmer’s repre—
sentative.
This is what he said : ‘Byington has
made charges that are false. We will
prove that he is in the wrong, and
unles he retracts and apologises 'as he
should, we will—’ ”
As no charges were ever made by Mr.
Byington, and the GAZETTE only gave
publicity to those made by members of
Douglas Fowler Post,.and as there was
no “cool reception,” the Farmer must
' have been favored by one of the modern
fake correspondents.
Captain Reprimands Sergeant.
Never since the completion of Nor-
walk’s Armory has such a ridiculous
, scene been enacted as occured Tuesday
' evening during the drill of Company F.
1 Captain Rose was in command and the
l‘ company marching in platoons when
the Captain gave the order “platoon
fours left,” followed by the command
"column left,” which brings the second
platoon in front joining the company
in columns of fours. This command
releases the chiefs of the platoons and
they cease. to act. Captain Rose not
being acquainted with the tactics, gave
no other command, thus allowing the
company to march into the brick wall
where they stood and pawed the white-
wash, until the Captain gave them the
order “about face,” followed by
“halt,” when he» proceeded to repri-
mand Sergeant Latson before the en-
tire company for his neglect in not
wheeling the company. As Latson had
ceased to act and was simply a file
closer, the mistake was entirely the
Captain’s, but he could not overlook
his own laughable blunder without
heaping insult on poor Latson.
After the drill, and when in company
meeting, Sergeant Latson arose and
demanded an apology from Captain
Rose, for insulting him before the com—
pany, but the bold Captain continued
the business of the meeting as though
Latson was not visible.
What the outcome will be, is not
known, but as Latson is not likely to
rest under the insult heaped upon him,
and of which he was in no way deserv-
ing, some lively developments may be
looked for.
There were a number of visitors at
the Armory at the time, among whom
was Capt. A. A. Betts, the former com-
mander of Company F, and ’tis said that
as soon as Captain Rose recognized
him he halted the company and turned
them over to Lieut. Aiken to complete
the drill.
Grace Church Picnic.
The first picnic of Grace Church
Sunday School took place at Roton
Point, Tuesday. Notwithstanding the
threatening weather it took three large
carryalls to carry all of the children
and teachers of the school to the Point.
A sumptuous lunch was served at noon
and heartily enjoyed by the children.
At 4:30 a surprise in the shape of a clam
bake was given by Mr. Robert Van
Buren to which all present did ample
justice. Mr. Van Buren also furnished
some beautiful day fireworks, which
were successfully set off. Numerous
races were inaugurated in which the
children of the school participated, the
winners being rewarded with prizes.
The children were not alone in their
games, however, as some of the older
members of the party created much
amusement by attempting to jump the
rope, as in their younger days. At
the close of the clam bake Mr. Baker
called the choir boys together and with
the assistance of the visiting Bridge-
port boys rendered several songs,
while the gifted George Moore favOred
the companynvith a solo. which was
highly appreciated. At ”5:30 they left
the Point for home all voting a most
successful day, and returning many
thanks to the congregation and kind
rector for their happy day‘s outing.

Vv'e think we can cure a bad case of
Backache quicker with one of Carter’s
Smart Weed and Belladonna Plasters,
than by any other application. and
after the Backnohe is cured, you can
still wear the plaster without discom-
fort for two or three weeks, OI longer.
This combination of Smart Weed and
Belladonna 1s a great hit, and it is hard
to find any pain or ache that will not
yield to it. Price 25 cents. Sold by
druggists everywhere.
. the
The Noroton Home.
Much of the misdirected suspicion,
which in the minds of those whose in-
terest and curiosity were excited, in
connection with the management of
Soldiers’ Home. has evidently
grown out of an effort on the part of
its managers. to carry out the princi-
ple of not letting the right hand know
what the left hand doeth. To illustrate,
the old soldiers housed there, were,
many of them, familliar with, or made
acquainted with the fact that formerly
there was a large picture gallery at the
Home. There were no pictures visi-
ble now, so in the most natural way in
_ the world. thev began to gossip about
the neighborhood, that these pictures,
once known to be hung all over the
walls, had mysteriously disappeared.
These,and other similar rumors,coming
to the ears of Grand Army comrades,
they began a systematic, but private
investigation. which as it progressed,
seemed to fully bear out the charges
spread abroad by the inmates. This
self-constituted committee of investiga-
tion, by ocular proof, soon learned that
the pictures were all gone. They
learned further that one box contain-
ing a picture for the gallery had been
sent, under an assumed name, to a man
in Bridgeport. To Bridgeport they
followed, it and found that it had been
received by a member of the Board,and
was in his parlor. This to them, was
proof, strong as Holy Writ, as they had
no knowledge that the pictures had
been quietly stored in the garret, and
that the one picture they had traced to
Judge Beers’ house, had been honor-
ably bargained and paid for.
Another story sent us by the G. A.
R. men, was, that the large library of
books, once known to exist there, had
also disappeared. They examined and
found it true, but they did not find out
that they,too,had been stored in an out
of the way place,for safe keeping. An-
other story sent us, was, that in their
amateur detective search, they had dis-
covered the immense, life-sized oil por-
trait of Benjamin Fitch, the founder
of the Home, lying in an unused room
in the garret face downward, but they
did not learn that it was so l..id,not out
of disrespect to the soldiers’ benefac-
tor, but to the more surely protect its
face from injury during the time that a
place could be made for it in the Board
of Managers room,where it now hangs.
So of the huge book-case. It was made
of pine and grained in imitation of
black walnut. They believed it to be
of the hard and more valuable wood.
They found it had been sold for less
than its worth for fire wood and traced
it to the purchaser’s barn at Five Mile
River, but they did not know that the
Board had decided the books to be
practically valueless to the new condi-
tions of the Home, and had had them
quietly stored aloft, nor did they learn
that the room occupied by the empty
book-case was needed for other pur-
poses, and to prevent any unfair com-
ments likely to result should it be
burned up, the board ordered it sold
for whatever could be gotten for it.
And so on to the end of the chapter,
proving the truth of the old adage that
“one story is good till the other is
tolt .’I But the question comes in
rightfihere. Could not all thisgossip and
scandal have been avoided had all
these several acts been g1 en out pub-
licly to the world, or even have let the
old vets, cranks, as many of them are,
have known . about these various
changes and the good reasons therefor?
What the people crave in these modern
days is information of all that their
'servants are doing, and thus it is that
“Executive Sessions” and “Star Cham-
ber” actions are hateful and obnoxious
to the public. .
Another thing to be borne in mind,
is, that the character of the Home, as
founded by Benjamin Fitch, at the
close of the war,and the institution to-
day. as ”owned and managed by the
State, has been entirely changed.
Then it was for succoring and educat-
ing the needy children of the Nation’s
defenders. .Then these books and pic-
tures were of essential use and value
in the development of these youths.
Now,none but old, decrepit or homeless
veterans are there, and the books. and
pictures selected for the children have
lost their value, and the room occupied
by them was demanded for the soldiers’
comfort, so that the Board were justi-
fied in their action, and, so far as we-
could see, were only open to just criti-
cism for a seemingly unnecessary reti-
cence in making these changes.
A Lucky Escape.
Tuesday afternoon, while the young
‘daughter of Wm. A. Curtis was riding
her bicycle, the machine made a lurch
toward the gutter and in straightening
it out again, she turned it directly in-
to the carriage of Thomas Lawlor, who
was driving quietly down West avenue.
Miss Curtis seeing her danger under-
took to jump off, but her skirts catch-
ing. she fell under the wagon. As Mr.
Lawlor was driving slowly the horse
was immediately stopped without in-
jury to the rider, but the scare was so
great that she fainted after all danger
'was over.

_ Lawn Tennis. »
The next few weeks promise to be
full of interest to the members of the
Lawn Tennis Club, and lovers of ten-
nis not only in Norwalk, but in fact all
over the country. At the board of man-
agers of the local tennis club this week
arrangements were made by which a
tournament with Westport will be had
next week Wednesday and successive
days, all the games being played here.
Each club will enter three men in sin-
gles and three teams in doubles, each
team playing each opposing team.
Each match won, scores one point for
the club and the trophy, a banner cost:
ing $10, will become the property of the
winning club. This match will be in
charge of Dr. Acton and F. H. Hill.
The Bridgeport tournament will be
on the same terms as the Westport one,
excepting that the value of the trophy
is $40 and the games will be played al-
ternately in Bridgeport and Norwalk,
the games here being on Thursday Au-
gust 20.
Invitations have been sent to all the
clubs in the county to send delegates
to a convention to be held in the Nor-
walk Tennis Club casino, Monday, Au-
gust 10, at 4p. m., to make arrange-
ments for a tournament of Fairfield
county clubs. Play will begin on
Wednesday, August 26, and in view of
the central location of Norwalk, it is
more than likely that the tournament
will be held here. Norwalk’s delegates
to this convention are Pres. J. A. Pin-
neo and Dr. \V. F. Acton.
Builder Charles Hoyt, on Thursday,
began the erection of a piazza across
the entire south side of the club house,
offering accommodations for a large
number of spectators. A grand stand
will be built on the west side of the
grounds and thereby seating about 150
more. ‘
Q.
Cowardly Assault.
\Vhile dancing was going on in the
pavillion at the Iron Molder’s picnic,
at a little before ten Saturday night. a
man named John Kelly, a hatter em-
ployed at South Norwalk, stepped up
to Miss Lizzie Kelly, of Knight street,
and asked if he might see her home.
She replied that he could not. A little
later he asked her if she would not step
out the door a few moments as he had
something important to tell her. She
complied and the two walked up the
track a short distance, when Kelly
sprang upon her, placing one hand
over her mouth and with his other
hand and feet throwing her down and
furiously attempted a criminal assault
upon her. She struggled as best she
could and thwarted his purpose, but
the cowardly wretch gave her two or
three parting kicks with his heavy
boots, ere he fled. Her clothing was
badly torn and shewas greatly terri-
fied of course. Her cries soon brought
assistance and she was conveyed to her
home and Dr. Tracy called in, who
pronounced her injuries seriously pains
ful rather than dangerous.
Kelly was seen at Coney Island, Sun-
day. He said that he .drove to Port-
chester and took the train from there
to New York. He says that he did not
commit the alleged assault, but that
the girl had a fit. 'His actions do not
bear out the statement. It is to be
hoped the villain will be captured.
Shaking Up the Fourth.
(From the Bridgeport Farmer.)
It is understood from an authorita-
tive source that a general shaking up is
to take place in the Fourth Regiment
immediately after the encampment at
Niantic. It is said that a number of
those now holding high military posi-
tions in the regiment are to quietly
step out, for reasons not known outside
of military circles. With the appoint-
ment of Col. \Vatson to the position of
general, the Colonelship fell on Lieut.
Col. Skinner, of \Vinsted. One of those
who is to step out after the encamp-
ment, it is understood, will be Colonel
Skinner. Lieutenant Col. Crowe, who
in the regular course of events, would
naturally succeed to the position, is
said to have no desire to accept the
command. A well known military man
'of this city is authority for the state-
ment that the Colonelship will come to
Bridgeport. “The person elected to
the commanc ,” Said he, “will not be a
member of the regiment, but an out-
sider, like General \Vatson was when
he was elected Colonel. He will also
be a man who has time and money to
devote to the work, and one' who will
bring the Fourth regiment up to its
former level again.”
