 The stone walls were on the estate of Lewis Q. Tiffany, of New York. and t,,a. piers on the estates of J. West Roosa- Welt, George F. Maxwell and Frederiek Y. Coudert.

The residents of LaureIton had accomplished the demolition during the night.
 The movement to restore the water front of Oyster Bay to the town is backed by decided public sentiment. In the year 1877 what is known as the An dros patent conveyed in fee simple to the town of Oyster Bay all land be. tween high and low tidewater.

 A case is now pending in court in- volving the w. Enlen Roosevelt estate in the same controversy.

 Accused Kept Secret.


 Thomaston, Aug. 2.A man whose identity the authorities refuse to dis | close is held here tonight for 3 hearing tomorrow morning on a charge of feIo- nious assault on the -year-old daugh- ter of Rev. c. A. Viets, pastor of the Methodist church. The little girl is now under medical care. All information regarding the affair is refused by the police and at the house of MT. Viets, but from what can be learned it is un- derstood that the prisoner went to the Methodist parsonage tonight and that, upon the little girl answering his knocking, he asked for the key to the church. Thinking that everything was all right, the child secured the key and went with the man to the church. Later when she did not return, Mir. Viets went over to the church, where he found the man and the child. The man at once fled, with Mr. Viets in plr- suit. After an exciting chase through the streets Mir. Viets captured him at the railroad station and turned him over to the authorities.

 Bride--No Surprise Caused Among
 the Friends of the Groom.
 Philadelphia, Aug. 2.-Announcement was made to-day of the marriage yes- terday of Fay Templeton, the actress, to William Patterson of Pittsburg. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. F. c. Steinmetz at the home of Dr. Giles, a brother-in-law of the bride, at Ridley Park, suburb Immediately after the wedding Sthe couple departed on bridal tour.
 Beyond statement that William J. Patterson is a wealthy resident of Pittsburg, nothing could be learned of the bridegroom at Ridley Park to-day as the greatest secrecy was thrown about the wedding. When the Rev. Mir. Steinmetz was summoned to the Gile home he supposed 1t was for a social visit and when he was informed after the wedding that Fay Ten1pleton was the well known actress, was much sur prised. There were no witnesses to the marriage, outside the members of the Gle family.
 Pittsburg, Aug 2.- William Josnua Patterson, who is reported to have married Far Templeton in Philadelphia it was learned here tonight is the president of the Hyle and Patterson Engineering and Contracting firm of this city. Mir. Patterson was a widow CT, forty-two years old and has no iun- mediate family living. His first wife was a Miss Boggs of Allegheny, men1- Der of & wealthy family In that city.
 The announcement caused no sur- prise to MT. Patterson's associates here.
 ID. w. Heyi, MT. Patterson's business partner, confirmed the marriage an- nounoement tonight, MT. Patterson is accounted as wealthy.
 Rumors that Fay Templeton was to marry had been floating about the Ri- altof for some time. When the actress was in Chicago playing ''Forty-five Minutes from Broadway news that she was to marry was conveyed to the other members of the company, and 1t was generally understood that a Pitts burg man was to be the bridegroom. On the night the company closed it's Chicago engagement there was din- ner at which souvenirs were distrIb- uted among the members. Miss Tenn pleton, who made the distribution, stat ed that the giver was a Pittsburg friend of hers. The souvenirs were rather costly pieces of jewelry.
 When Miss Templeton returned to New York she took an apartment tenn porarily and told George Conan, in confidence, that she would soon give up her stage career and take a flying trip to Europe. It was intimated that on her return from abroad she would settle down to the work of entertain ing the four hundred of Pittsburg A modification of this plan was announc- ed the other day when it was said that she would finish her contract for the season of 1906-07.

 2:1O class trotting, and the 2:23 class
 trotting.
 l In the free-for-all, Snyder MoGregor, Wentworth and Sweet Marie were the only starters, but as these horses had never met before, considerable interest centered in this event.

In the first heat Wentworth was placed second because of interference at the nrst turn by Hogan, but in the next two heats Snyder MoGregor was second. the last heat being decided by nose. In the sweepstakes for three-year- old pacers, Kelly, bay gelding by Baronmore, carried off the honors in clever style, with Vance Nuckols' Brenda Yorke second and Directal third.
