SAYIN ROCK SURPRISES
YESTERDAY VAS AN EVENTFUL
 DAY AT THE RESORT.

ian's Corn Patoh--Arrested for Sunday
 Liquor Selling of the Charges by
 Several Restauranteurs.
 It was a day of surprises at Savin Rock yesterday, and among the sur prised were the aeronaut, the many sa- loon keepers and the other merchants who inhabit the place. The program of the day was inaugurated at very ear ly hour by the descent of the police upon notorious resort kept by George Stetson just back of Grove street.
 This house, known heretofore as the Thomas place, has been quite promi- nent as a resort for the Trllbies of the shore, and the sounds of revelry ema- hating therefrom at about o'clock yes terday morning attracted the attention of the police on duty there and 1t was resolved to raid the place.
 Officers Mcdonald Russell, Daley and Johnson formed themselves into an at- tacking party and swooped down upon the place. In the several rooms of the mansion they captured nine people, in cluding the proprietor and his wife, and all were escorted to the lookup. There they all gave various names, amongst which Jones, Brown and Smith predom- mated, and all were let go upon small bonds to appear before the borough court this morning. The chief disturber seemed to be Jennie Barnes, who with a piano player at the shore precipitated the raid All the participants are well known habitues of the Rock.
 There was large picnic from New Britain at the grove yesterday and the first attraction was ball game between the Graham Hook and Ladder team and the Elm City club. The Grahams play ed very timid game and were defeated by score of 12 to g.
 A balloon ascension was announced for 4 o'clock and shortly after one Of the Jewell brothers made very sue. .cessful ascension. He rose to the height of $500 feet and then cut loose the par aehute, and after graceful fall he alighted In a corn field on Savin avenue owned by an Italian.
 As the Italian saw the huge mush. room-like structure settling in his gar, den he and his wife armed themselves with knives and sallied out to attaci the rash aeronuat, who had dared tc invade their domain.
 MT Jewell explained the matter. to ths excited couple in his most honeyes fa 1II al sunny Italy then turned their attention to the attendant crowd and chased then clear over into the next lot
 When MrJewell returned to the grove he found Deputy Sheriff Wheeler await ing him with bill for services from tht man who had rescued the parachute from the water on a previous ascension The matter was soon amicaIbly settled as MT. Jewell had never received any bill for services and the big balloon was not attached.
 Then Deputy Sheriff Wheeler hauled a big batch of warrants out of his peck let and proceeded to make it very inter esting for the saloon keepers. He frs visited E. Rallies and served war
  place open for the sale of liquors or Sunday, August 4. He then visited Charles Duffy's place in Miller's pavil ion and served the same summons.
 It was rumored that other places were also to be charged with Sunday selling but up to a late hour these are the only two places that are definitely known tt be so charged.
 Inquiry at the Twitchell house, a Moegling's, McGinn's and Curnen' shore restaurant elicited denial iron the proprietors that they had done an, Sunday business and they did not ex pect any interference from the authori ties.
 MT. Moegling of the Germania hous stated that he had been very particula even in the matter of furnishing liquo with meals ordered at his house, an' had only served regular boarders. Mt Speh of the Sea View hotel said he hat never sold a drink on Sunday and tn idea of prosecuting him was all non sense. Proprietor Twitchell of tn Twitchell house and Frank McGinl were also very emphatic in their denial of doing Sunday business, and stated that there had not drink been sold il their place on Sunday to their certain knowledge. MT Raffile stated that ol the Sunday in question, August 4, h was sick abed and his place was abso lutely closed all day.
 A prominent West Haven police off cial said to a reporter: 'T think tn present season has been the most quie and orderly ever known on the shore and it is entirely due to the regular DO lice force, and no outsiders have beer called in to assist us. There has beel very little liauor sold but we know wht had done even that business and the, will be brought to account within a da, or two"
