An unusual case has been brought
to the superior court from Meriden in
an action for 81 900 damages for assault.
The case is that of Henry l., SchWink,

by his son and so badly injured that he
was unable to attend to his work for a
long time.
In his answer filed in the case yester-
day the defendant states that he did not
hurt his father at the time of the al

lent. He further states that his father
was abusing by word of mouth the
defendants minor daughter, and that
the defendant used no more force than
was necessary to stop him.

WHY PUPILS WE'RE vACCINATED,

School Tells of Robert Sloan's Ill

School Tells of Robert Sloan's Ill
ness.
to the compulsory vaccination in the
Horace Mann school, One Hundred and
Thirtieth street. between Amsterdam
avenue and Broadway, Superintendent
Samuel It. Dutton dictated the follow
ing statement to-day:
''The facts concerning Robert Sloan,
a pupil in the Horace Mann school, are
as follows: The young man left school
on December Z and went to Asbury
Park, where his parents reside, to spend
Sunday. His continued absence led the
principal of the school to make a
searching inquiry, but no information
was obtained until yesterday morning.
Then word came that the boy was
somewhat i'll on Sunday and that some
suspicious symptoms were discovered ON
Tuesday, but the case was not diagnos-
ed as one of smallpox until the follow
ing Thursday. 1t appears that he had
been vaccinated three or four days be-
fore being taken ILL., so that his case is
an exceedingly light one.
1.-THE authorities of the school do
not think it possible that any contagion
could have resulted from his presence
in the school, but it was thought wise
to take extreme precaution and apply
the same rules that are followed in the
public schools"

EAST HAVEN TOWN MEETING
DID NOTHING LAST NIGHT FOR
FIRE DEPARTMENT.
Vote of Previous Meeting to BUY Lot
Near Episcopal Church Rescinded-
The Purchage of Property Next the
Town Hall Considered and Rejected.

The town meeting held last night in
East Haven proved to be pretty much
of fizzle, so far as providing for the
future of the fire department is con-
purpose of .reconsidering the action of
the meeting held last week to buy lot
street and drain it of surface water.
This water has settled on the land near
the church ever since the road was i'm
proved and has caused much annoy
ance.
When the meeting voted to purchase
the lot it was suggested that as long
as the town was to acquire the lot 1t
would be a good idea to erect a fire en-
CINE house on it. This suggestion was
we'll received and although no action
was taken concerning the erection OF
quarters for the firemen and their ap-
paratus, something definite was looked
for in the near future.
But the residents of the Foxon dis
trict and those living at and near
Cosey Beach are opposed to spending
money for the purposes named and yes
terday succeeded in marshalling their
forces so that last night both schemes
were voted down. Last weeks meet
ing had been declared illegal and the
action taken invalid, and the vote
taken on the question was reScinded in
last nights meeting. 1t had been learn
ed that the Hemingway store property
adjoining the town hall could be OBJ
tanned at reasonable price, and dur
ing the meeting it was urged that by
buying this property the town could
provide for it's fire department and at
the same time for any future extern
sion of the town hall which might be
necessary. A motion was accordingly
put before the house, that the select
men be empowered to buy this proper
ty at a reasonable price The motion
was defeated by ballot by majority OF
six. the vote standing 35 to 20.
The meeting then adjourned without
having come to anything definite for
the fire department or for draining the
lot near the Episcopal church. The
latter question has become complicated,
due to the fact that the property mas
changed hands since last weeks meet
ing. 1t is now owned by Dwight w.
futile The present price of the Hem
ingway property is estimated at about
81, 500.
