The Question Discussed at Length at
the Meeting OF the Selectmen Last
EveniRg-A Special Meeting to be
Held Friday AfternoOn-Action to
be Taken Then on Railroad Matters.
The board of eelectmen last evening
again deferred action on the petitions of
the Edgewood Avenue Railway company
and the Fair Haven and Westville Horse
Railroad company for permission to run
through Orange and Fountain streets, in
Westville, until next Friday afternoon, at
O'Clock, when special meeting will be
held to take action ON the matter.
The question of finding employment for
the worthy poor of the town was also q
special feature of the meeting. The COM
mittee on outside poor recommended that
town meeting be called for the purpose
of appropriating 1000 for making public
improvements and the draining of Beaver
pond district. It was the opiuion of the
committee that this amount would fur
nish large number of worthy poor with
employment.
| Selectman Beecher was of the opinion
that the men should be put to work on the
| roads and that the causeway of Tomlinsen
bridge, Woodward and Farren avenues and
other highways were In urgent need of i'm
mediate repairs. He also was of the opin-
ion that the board of public works could
furnish work on the highways for every
idle man in the city.
| Selectman Pohlman replied that he did
not care where the men were put to work,
as long as they were given an opportunity
to earn livelihood. He thought that q
town meeting should be called, owing to
the size Of the suggested appropriation.
The condition of the Beaver ponds, he
said, is an intolerable nuisance, and a big
force of men could readily be put to work
there. The nuisance should be abated, but
if we spend s., 900 without the sanction OF
town meeting the town might object.
therefore move for town meeting and ash
that the men be put to work at draining
and filing in the Beaver ponds.
Selectman Sternberg expressed the opin
ion that 1t was unnecessary to call a towr
meeting, and that the board should ge
ahead, hire the men, spend the money, i'm
prove the town and give worthy men az
opportunity to support their families: HI
believed that If this was done the town
instead of opposing, will heartily sanction
the action of the board.
Selectman Forbes was also of the opinion
that it was unnecessary to call tow1
meeting. but Town Agent Clarity expressed
himself in favor of having town meeting
prior to expanding such a sum of money
After lengthy discussion the-boarc
finally voted to defer all action on the ques
ton until Friday afternoon.
Registrar Carr appeared and asked tina
the windows and awnings in his ofic,
which were broken by the recent storm b,
repaired. The matter was referred to thu
committee on construction and repairs.

MANY APPLICATIONS.

New Haven Normal school Opened.
The new state normal school opened yes
terdsy morning in the temporary quarters
in the old Skinner school on State street.
A. B. Morrill,, formerly of Willimantic,
was in charge. Twelve candidates for ad-
mission were examined and fifty-three
other candidates were admitted without
examination. 1t is certain that the class
for this year will number fully seventy
five. One of the pupils came from New
Hartford. Stamford, stratford, Milford
and other adjacent town were we'll repre-
scented. Owing to the failure of the furni-
ture to arrive and the unsettled condition
of the building the regular session will not
open until next week, when the regular
schedule will be inaugurated and be fol-
lowed during the remainder of the year
On account of number of the rooms in
the Skinner school being given up for the
Normal scholars 100 of the scholars of the
Skinner school will be transferred to other
schools, portion being sent to the Hum
phrey street school and the remsinder to
the Eaton school.
The improvements which have been in
progress at Skinner school have much i'm
proved the building, both as to Its external
and internal appearance. Greater light is
afforded in the school rooms also.

f6e life OF Coils P. Huntington Is
first of all that OF self made man.
When he left school at fourteen years
be had nothing, and to-day he is worth
millions. Although over seventy years
of age, he is as active as many men are
when they are only one-half as old.
He is usually in his Office 10 the Mills
Building when Change opens, and he
remains there until long after the
business of the day on Wall street Is
finished.
Unlike nearly every other equally
we'll known man on the street, he Is
easy of access, and any one who wishes
to have talk with him on anything,
from founding orphan asylums to fund
ing great railroad debts, will hnd MIN
only too glad to lend an attentive ear.
In one day he goes through mass OF
work that would stagger an ordinary
man, but with the system and capacity
ne brings into use IL becomes chlld's
play.
Mr.. Huntington was born October %.
1921, at HarwintOD, Litcht1eld county,
Conn. He came from lineage that
counts among its noted men Samuel
Huntington, one Of the signers OF the
Declaration of Independence, president
of the Continental Congress, and Gov
ernor and Chief Justice Of Connecticut;
Bishop II. D. Huntington OF the Epis-
copal Church, and the well known
painter, Daniel Huntington. Mr.. Hunt
ington's father was farmer and a man
ufacturer depending on his own laoor
for his livelihood.
