TOWN MEETING DID NOT ACCEPT REPORTS .SELECTMEN ARE CRITICISED

When it came to making an appro- priation for the current expenses of the town, much dissatisfaction was ex- pressed in relation to the way the towns business has been done, and the meeting agreed to make only such appropriations as will be needed until next March, when another meeting will be held, and provisions can be made for the ensuing year. So, too. the proposition to lay a tax to meet current expenses, went over until next March. The sum of $1 ,500 was voted for the support of the poor for the coming winter. The tree warden was given the sum of $2OO with which he is to spray such trees as may need it and look after the public trees gen orally. The se1ectmen were empow- cred to borrow $3O,000 on behalf of the town, to meet current expenses until the taxes are available.
 The first se1ectman came in for much criticism for the manner in which he does business, it being alleged that he goes ahead and does things without the knowledge or consent of the rest of the board. A set of resolutions, drawn up by Judge Banks, was adopt ed instructing the se1ectmen how to do business in aceoFdances with the wishes of the town These are to be printed and posted in the office of the selectmen. Dr. Donaldson remarked that the same thing had been done the year before, but attention was paid to the wishes of the town meeting.

Stratford, Oct. "A largely attended town meeting was held in Red Men's hall yesterday afternoon, Judge Peck presiding. The meeting continued in session some three hours and consid- cred a large number of propositions. The report of the town officers was accepted without a word of criticism. At the suggestion of Se1ectman Wells
 it was voted to appropriate one per cent of the taxes for sidewalks. The question of how the highways shall be repaired was left to the discretion of the selectmen. So, too, the towns poor are to be looked after by the se- lectmen the same as heretofore. In the matter of the public schools, it was reported there was no business to be done. The proposition to sell such school houses as the town does two buildings now used on Hollister Heights, but which will not be requir- ed after January 1, since the new Franklin school house will be ready to be occupied The selectmen were au- thorized to sell or not, according to their best judgment. The sum of $200 was appropriated for the grading of Booths Hill on North avenue. A question arose as to the removal of a rock by the side of Stratford avenue, at Eleanor Park: A coIored couple favoring the removal. The town fin ally agreed to spend a sum not exceed ing $1O0 for the purpose. A gentle man present said he knew of a man who would do the job for this amount if allowed to have the trap rock. It was agreed to accept Barnum Avenue Terrace, which MT. Wells said is 50 feet wide and well worked. This will therefore become public highway
 The proposition to drain Judson Place. near Elm street, of the surface water which collects there, caused a good deal of discussion. Se1ectman Wells said he had consulted engineers, and the lowest cost was $650 for a ten inch pipe, to take the water to the creek Some one suggested that there ought to be 8 sewer, and this opened up the whole question of average, but
 money as asked for. the drain, and let the sewerage question go over until such time as the town has more def1n- ite information, and some general plan has been decided upon. It was voted to have the selectmen purchase some Judge Peck said no seats of any kind had been placed in the hall for at least 20 years, and many more are needed The auto chemical hose wag- on was next taken up, and its advo- cate said $6,00O would be needed to buy one. MT. Bartram urged the town to purchase such a machine. He spoke of the recent fire opposite his house, at the residence of MT. Sammis, and said it was 20 minutes before the hose cart the town now owns was on the spot He added that i've are not sit uated to handle fires" It was asked if the machine would need a man to care for it, if one was purchased. It was replied that at least one man would be needed, and possibly two. Mr. Conine was of the opinion that the town does not need an auto of the

Fairfield, Oct. A largely attended and at times lively town meeting was held yesterday afternoon, Deacon A P. wakeman acting as moderator, and Bacon wakeman as clerk. The first business was to hear and act upon the reports of town officers. This caused much discussion and a great deal of fault was found with the report. It was pointed out that many mistakes had been made, and the town clerk said bills had been audited which he never saw. It was finally decided to lay the report upon the table, and it was ordered that a copy be corrected and filed. The question of 1mproV- ing the highway at Whites Hill was discussed, and after hearing the argu- ments the town voted to appropriate $1,000 for that purpose. The beach road, so-calIed came up again for con sideration, and it was desired that the town should make an appropriation to improve the road near Little Danbury- This was opposed and the matter was laid upon the table. Possibly the most popular action taken by the meeting. considered as a, step forward, was the appropriating of $1,250 for street lights, to be placed in the Stratf1eld district, and the villages of Fairfield and South port It is understood that the Bridge port Gas Light Company, which has just laid mains through the streets, will provide the lamps.

MARGARET A. EMANUEL

The death of Mrs. Margaret A Emanuel marks the passing of one of the older residents of this city. Born in Bridgeport in 1880, daugh- ter of the late John D. Baker, Mrs. Emanuel passed most of her life. During her brief married life of lit tie more than a year, she resided in Brooklyn, N. Y-, returning to Bridge port before the war. As an invalid in her later years she went to live with her sister, the former Mrs. Henry M. Sherman, in Torrfngton, Conn.,, and returned with them to Bridgeport when MT. Sherman was called to the rectorship of St. Paul's church, this city. In her youth Mrs. Emanuel was a belle in society and She was a member of the ''Kosy Klub'' an important literary and soc ial club of which Mrs. D. w. eThomp- son is now the only living member. For the last twenty years, increasing g invaIidisn has prevented any church work although she was an interest ed member of the Sterling Widows Home as long as health would per- init. Her loss will be mourned by all who were associated with her in her youth, as well as her newer friends in the last words of Mark Twain. ''The glow is fading from the western And one by one my comrades, as of
 yore,
 Have given up their play and said
 goodbye;
 There isn't any one for me to play with any more."

CHALLENGED BY DE PALMA The Noted Auto Driver Wants to Race Glenn Curtiss at the Danbury
 Fair

Glenn H. Curtiss has delegated Hen ming, his master mechanic, to have charge of his biplane at the Danbury Fair, Oct 4-8, so that Gene Ely, the aviator, may be assured that the ma chine is in perfect tune for his flights Wednesday, Thursday and Friday: The famous machine will be on the grounds all the week and it is ex- pected that several State records will be established, as Ely, who has but he successfully demonstrated the Cur tiss machine to the Mikado and his people, is a dare devil and ambitious to annex records.
 There is an added feature to the pro- gram of the fair that is likely to de- velop in a few days, as Ralph De Palma, the famous automobile driver, who will be among the contestants in the automobile races, has challenged Ely to race him five or more miles, aerop1ane has been built yet that can defeat him in a race on a circular track. Ely and fleming are of the other mind and are anxious to show from Mr. Curtiss. As Curtiss is game and has never been known to take a dare, it is thought he will accept. De Palma's theory is that the driver of the aeroplane will have so many ob- stacles to overcome in following a set course, that it will be impossible to get the machine going we'll before the Cyclone that he drives will have fin ished at least a lap, and with a lap lead Ralph is hard customer to over take If this race is arranged it will attract great attention as it will be the first of its kind with two such noted drivers pitted against each other, one with 90-horse power auto and plane.
