Oyster—Ground Litigation.

The case of Capt. A. M. Prior of
Stamford vs. Christian Swai'tz of South
Norwalk, plaintiff’s appeal, is on the
docket of the Supreme Court of Errors
which began its session .in Bridgeport.
Tuesday. The points at issue are of
importance to owners of oyster-beds,
and water-front property men gener-
ally. The plaintifi' claims the right to
his oyster grounds situated on the west
side'of Shippan Point, the same having
been regularly staked out, and sold to
him by the parties whom the grounds
were originally staked for. The de-
fendant, who owns a large water front
at Shippan, claims he has the right to
wharf out because he is the owner of
the adjoining uplands, and further, be-
gause he has a grant from the Legisla-

ure.

Plaintiff claims, in reply, that the
owner of the adjoining uplands has no
right towharf out or dig a channel be-
yond low water mark, and that the
Legislature could not grant the right
to whraf out where, previously. it had,
by a generallaw, authorized the staking
of oyster grounds and the planting of
oysters, and that, the Legislature had
not, in truth, granted any authority to
dig a channel, as in this case, 200 feet
on the oyster grounds of the plaintiff.
The case has been before the courts
about four years.

Important Real Estate Deals.

Mr. George W. Cram has sold the
beautiful lot opposite his residence on
East avenue, which comprised the
northern half of the old Van Zandt
homestead property, to a reported syn-
dicate of real estate men of means and
enterprise, who contemplate running a

 

street through it and opening up a ser- .

ies of most beautiful and sightly villa
sites. An effort will be made, so it is
reported, to purchase the Hunter prop-
erty adjoining on the south and adding
that to the Cram lot. These two prop-
erties will give an area of several acres
of most attractive building sites. Dr.
C. B. Coolidge, is said to be the lead-
ing sprit in the laudable enterprise and
may abundant success attend his efforts
to improve and adorn our growing
town.

Contractor Conley commences to-day
to open up and work a street through
the old Gregory homestead on Main
street, from Main to West Main. This
also, is to put in the market a series of
building lots, very centrally located
and of attractive merit. The grounds
are elevated and dry and so evenly
graded by nature that not a dollar will
be required to prepare them for build-
ing upon. Their nearness to the vil-
lage, the horse and steam cars, W111 no
doubt cause them to be eagerly sought
for and builded upon. All these evi-
dences of Norwalk’s growth and pros-
perity are most gratifying, neverthe-
less, Messrs. Norwalk Board of Trade,
won’t you please hurry up some more
factories ’3

State Board of Health Report.
In the report of the State Board of

Hon h for March, Secretary Lindsley_

lays reat strees upon the need of pro-
viding in every town an isolation hospi-
tal where persons suffering with a con-
tagious disease may be taken for treat-
ment. ,

The number of deaths in the State
during the month was 1,304, being 28
more than in February and 176 more
than in March of last year. Scarlet
fever in a mild form is unusually prev-
alent in several towns of the State.

The Facts.

The extraordinary contribution taken
up on Sunday at Grace Church has
given rise to sundry very erroneous
statements, one of which is that a New
York lady had sent her Easter offering
of five hundred dollars and one parish-
ioner had contributed three hundred,
and so on. None of these statements
are true. The offering was strictly an
Easter collection from those present in
the church and the largest amount
given by any one, was one hundred

 

dollars. There were four such contri-
butions and all the rest smaller
amounts. The morning collection

amounted to $957. At the evening col-
lec tion $114 more was received making
the gratifying total for the day. $1,071.
A most remarkable showing for any
church, and especially for one only a
veer old. *

A Narrow Escape.

Harry Morehouse. if he hoods the
lesson gained Thursday, will never
again attempt to board a moving rail-
road train. He stood in Hubbell’s
office on Water street, as the 7.36 train
on the Housatonic road leltthe station.
He started on a run down the street
and attempted to board the train at
the crossing. Ho succeeded in graSp-
ing the rail of the our platform but
lost his foothold, and was carried sev-
eral feet with his legs dangling in dan—
gerous proximity to the rails. He
finally let go his hold and fell to the
street, but fortunately escaped injury
other than an abrasion on the back of
his head. Those who witnessed his
perilous situation expected to see him
meet a terrible fate.

Club Reception.

A most delightful company of Nor-
walk’s “ fair women and brave men ”
crowded the elegant apartments of the
new Club House during all the early
hours of Wednesday eve’g. The elite
and democracy of the town were‘very
pleasantly and cordially intermixed,
and‘ ‘ all went merry as a marriage bell”
throughout the evening. There were
also quite a large number of prominent
people from abroad. among whom were
Senators D. M. Read and Holden and
Hon. Charles Gregory, of 5th avenue.
New York, an officer of and a repre-
sentative from the Union League Club
to the Norwalk Club. He was a guest
while here of his distant relatives, Dr.
and Mrs. J. G. Gregory.

Delightful music and cooling and re-
freshing lemonade added to the soctal
enjoyments of the successful occasion.

Attempts Suicide.

A woman of comely appearance tried
to commit suicide Wednesday morning
by taking two ounces of chloride of
iron, which in small doses is used as a
tonic. She became deathly sick and
went into Fleischner’s ding store, beg-
ging them to call an ambulance. She
vomited excessively and so the doctors
were able to destroy the force of the
drug easily. Gastritis set in afterward,
but last evening she was recovering
finely.

She told the authorities her name
was May Hendricks and that she lived
at 21 Chestnut street, Norwalk. - She
refused to tell the reason for her not.
It was found last night that she had ap-
plied at Sleeman’s agency for work and
had been sent to Durant’s hotel. The
people there liked her appearance and
asked her to come back latei‘.—New
Haven Courier.

Another Railroad Victim.

Tuesday there laid in the bag-
gage room at the South N orwalk rail-
road station the horribly mangled re-
mains of a Hungarian. His name is
Joseph Lazko. _ He had been in the
employ of the Consolidated road and
was walking from Darien to Spring-
wood on the railroad tracks, and when
near the second bridge,a short distance
this side of Five Mile River, was struck
by the express train due at South Nor-
walk at 6 o’clock. The train was stopped
and the body brought to South N or-
walk,andlater transferred .to Gregory’s
morgue. Coroner Burke- was sum-
moned and found that the poor fellow’s
head was cut off, and his body
frightfully mangled. One arm was cut
off at the elbow, and he was disem-
bowled. It is stated that he has a wife
and three children in Hungary. The
sum of $22.11 was found in his pockets.
The remains was interred at Pine
Island Wednesday.

 

For His Sacred Office.

The Herald Thursday published a par-
ticularl y fine portrait of Bishop-elect
McDonnell, who is now preparing him-
self for his new duties at his retreat at
Keyser’s Island.

The portrait is the first picture he
has had taken since his return from
Rome in 1878. The Herald says :

Bishop-elect Charles E. McDonnell,
of the Long Island diocese of the Cath-
olic Church, is now devoting a week to
the “spiritual exercises of the retreat.”
The exercises consist of an examination
of the conscience and contemplation of
future study.

When Bishop-elect McDonnell arr
rived at Keyser Island he was received
by the Superior, the Rev. Father Jo-
seph Loyzance, S J ., who seeigned
him to a plainly furnished room.

The Bishop-elect arises at half-past
five o’clock in the morning and spends
an hour in prayer and meditation. He
then says mass. Breakfast follows,
and then come spiritual readings and
an examination of the conscience, last-
ing until the noon hour, when dinner is
served. '

After an hour’s recreation, followed
by further reading, a conference is
held with the Superior. After the sup-
per hour comes a season of recreation,
a final conference and then night
prayers. He retires about nine o’clock.

On days set apart for this duty he
will attend confession and receivecom-

munion. . .
During th week Bishop-elect Mc-_
.Donnell will e in strict seclusion” from

the world and will maintain silence
when not in conference, at mass or

 

confession.

 

Threatened Strike.

That Wilton Case.

The case of Van Hoosear vs. Town of
Wilton, was argued in the Supreme
Court this morning. “Judge Perry, in
the Common Pleas, gave the plaintiff
about $150 damages, but the town ap-
pealed the case with the hopes of get-
ting a new trial with a more favorable
result, The case excites Considerable
attention, as the dog-law and the pow-
ers of selectmen to fix damages in sheen
killing cases are involved. Hurlbutt

Forest Fires in Connecticut.

Forest fires, due to the long drouth,
are raging in many parts of Connecti-
cut and an immense amount of damage
has been wrought. An extensive con-
fiagration has been burning since noon
yesterday in the woods about North
Windham, and many hundred acres
have been burned over. A large tract
of forest was burned between the
North Windham road and the New
London Northern Railroad, and the
fire leaped the track and enveloped the
large forest east of the railroad and
raged fiercely all last night. The con-
fiagration cannot be stayed until it
reaches the Windham highway and the
open country bordering it. To prevent
the flames from approaching the large
borough of Willimantic, railroad hands
were called out, who started back fires
on the east side of the railroad from
Phillips Crossing several miles to
Windham Centre. Despite their ef-
forts, however, alocal fire broke out
last evening in the wood near the
Roman Catholic cemetery, burned
over a large territory, and Father Le
Bruyther called out the Willimantic
fire department. The flames were ex-
tinguished before they reached the
town. There has been no rain for
some time in southern New England,
and the whole country is as dry asa
tinder-box. ' »

Fire broke out on Talcott Mountain,
near Hartford, about. 3 o’clock. Tues-
day afternoon below the old tower, and
burned through the night and all day
yesterday. It was still burning at an
early hour this morning, when it was
spreading north, south and east, and
was not nearing the tower or threaten-
ing it. Barnum and Richardson’s men
have been cutting wood where the fire
is. About fifteen acres have been
burned over. Smoke was visible from
tops of buildings in Hartford yester-
day during the day and at night the
flames could be distinctly seen.
