The West Haven road carried large
number of people to the shore yesterday.
The day being so warm and sultry caused
people to leave the city and seek the cool
breezes from off the sound. At Railroad |
grove, Savin Rock, all the peanut stands,
popcorn and lemonade counters were in full
blast. The children leased to ride on the
flying horses and their longings were grant
ed, but the melodious organ was silent.
The shooting gallery was deserted and
closed and quiet reigned supreme. In
fact, the only amusement that was threat
ened was the shooting gallery. The crowd
was satisfied, but the owner of the
range was far from pleased and thinks
the authorities are most unjust and arbi-
trary, as the sound of the exploding car
tridges, as he claims, cannot be heard
further than fifty or one hundred feet from
| the range. The bath houses were we'll
patronized, eighty people being in the wa
| ter in front of one house at one time. The
demand was 80 great that the supply of
towels gave out and people had to wait for
| the towels to get half dry. The only dis
| turbance of the day was caused by young
man named Mccarthy, who bought some
sandwiches of man by the name OF Fry
and refused to pay. Officer Peck arrested
Mccarthy, who slipped out of his coat,
leaving it in Peck's hand. and started on q
run to escape, but Officer Peck was the
best sprinter and recsptured McC earthly. The
prisoner then made so violent resistance
that Peck called for assistance and finally
succeeded in placing the handouts on hi
man. Mccarthy fought like demon al
the way to the lookup, and was placed II
the cooler. Mccarthy works in the matcl
shop in Westville. The Law and Ordel
league closed the photograph gallery, nea
the Sea View hotel, yesterday afternoon TO
the day.
