 STAMFORD

MT. George A. Porter has a petition in circulation to which he is obtaining signers for a special town meeting the object of which is announced to be to instruct the Board of Education to change the principal of the high school for another year. It is understood that signatures are being readily obtained to the petition, and that as soon as enough have been secured to meet the requirements of the law, a second special town meeting will be called. It is possible there may be a legal question involved in the proposition, which will affect the situation. School boards, as a rule. are quite independ- enJ bodies. and have certain powers delegated to them by the state. It may appear that a town meeting has no right to instruct the board whom it shall employ as teacher.
 On the 25th inst. the selectmen will

 FOR DOWNFALL
After Leaving Trumbnll, Vandsrberg's
 Troubles Came Thick and Fast.
COURT DIFFERS SENTENCE

Edward Vanderberg, aged 52, and formerly a resident of Trunbull where he was station agent for the railroad, was before the Superior court yester- day charged with embedding s107 of the funds of the railroad company while in their employ. Vanderberg pleaded guilty, sentence being deferred till Monday. It was represented to Judge Gager yesterday that there was a slight shortage in vanderberg's ac- countings to the. railroad every month until the shortage amounted to $lO7. The company then sent an accountant to the station to straighten out the books and also put another man in Vanderberg's place. Judge Gager did not quite understand how 1t was that the railroad company allowed the ac- cused to be running behind in his ac- counts for monthS without calling for an immediate settlement and explana- tion.
 As vanderberg was under a. surety bond at the time of the dedication the surety company made good the short age to the company. They however did not bring any action against van-- derberg as he promised to make good the shortage by paying BIO a month He went to New York. secured em- ployment as a telegraph operator, at which he has been employed all his life, and paid the security company between $50 and $40.
 He then met with an accident, break ing an arm, and left New York for Albany He was arrested there month ago and Sheriffs Arthur Plumb and David Burr brought him here on requisition papers, the surety company being the complainant.
 Vanderberg appeared in court yes terday with his arm in a sling, He stated that his wife, who had been ar a,.11 ir, aff ha stolen the money from him. It was his custom to bring home the receipts of the office, and when he was asleep she would abstract some of the money.

FAIRFIELD

Now that the fair is over those in terested are taking an account of stock and comparing results with the fair of one year ago. Considering the threat ening aspect of the weather on We'd resday, and the fact that it was cloudy on Thursday morning it is thought to be quite remarkable that the gate receipts came within S400 of being as large as they were a year ago. Some disappointment has been expressed over the fact that there was not a better display of horses, and there are those who think horse races for a I ece of plate or a prize would

THE HOLY CITY"
PROMISES GOOD
ENTERTAINMENT

There is nothing so convincing to
the people as to be dead in earnest.
Three years ago, when Clarence Ben
nett first produced his great and sue
cessful play, THE Holy City" min
listers were inclined to doubt the pro-
priety or morality of Bible play on
so sacred a subject, some going so
far as to brand it, unheard, as a sac
rilege. But, upon the authors earn
est invitation to them to visit it,
their denunciations were turned to
praise, and they have become it's
highest eulogists, and often solicit
and advise their practitioners to see
the play, declaring it the most vivid
time Of John the Baptist and our
Savior that has ever been presented
in this country. 1t is not tiresome,
long drawn out sermon, but a great
play, telling a really beautiful heart
story. There is no man or woman SO
depraved but that will bow the head
in reverence, when he hears his tiny
child lisp Now lay me down to
Sleep So it is with this beautiful
play. While it does not contain one
laugh, the lightest and most frivol-
GUS or the most hardened and sinful
are held entranced and spell-bound
1t commands reverence, it does not
ask it. It's earnest realism thrills us
whether we will or not.
There is always some reason for
success. In this age of commercial
ism, everything must have some real
merit in it to be lasting success.
Anything must be worth ones time
and money, or the public will soon
relegate it to the rubbish pile. This
is as true of plays as of everything
else. They must be real, sterling,
sound and solid value to have a long
continued success. The ever-grow-
ing triumph of Clarence Bennet's
The Holy City, which has so COM
pletely distanced all other religious
plays and has so endeared itself to
the American theater-going public,
tells it's own story of the triumph of
real merit and true worth. 1t is the
play OF the century. "One of the few,
the immortal plays that were not
born to die!" It's auditors pronounce
1t the greatest play they have ever
seen. has no rival, no competitor!
The theater goers of this city will
have the opportunity of WITNESSING
this powerful play at the Pavilion
theater this evening and tomorrow
evening.

CARSON, Feb. 1.-The legislature
has now been in session two weeks,
of five days each, having on two oc-
casions adjourned from Friday to
Monday. The apparent purpose of
this double holiday is to give the
members and attaches an opportun-
ity to go to Reno for a week end"
as the Reno papers term it. Just ex-
actly what these week ends" mean
no official information is vouchsafed;
but the opinion hereabouts is that
the gay bucks are on pleasure bent;
that the metropolis offers a more al
Turing market in which to spend
their salary money, than does this
sedate village. Local resorts have,
of course. kick coming on the pro-
cedure, but this is said to be an old,
time honored custom, and as Car
son citizens are welded to precedent,
being mostly eiS-timers from away
back, they calmly submit to the in
dignity-dop.t even demand that the
railroad cogWission put stop to
the Virginia and Truckee's practice
of selling round trip tickets for half
price.
These first two weeks OF the pres
ent session have served very well for
the alignemnt of factions. This al
lignment, of course. refers to the rifI
within the Democratic party. as Re-
publicans are not sufficiently numer-
Gus in either house to offer excuse
for factionai segregation. They car
only do a tearn as lockers ON In

to offer pertinent criticism ON the
acts OF the dominant party that car

loved constituents at home. AS hai
