BRIDGEPORTER, WHO WAS BONDSMAN,
 WANTS HIS MONEY

Hartford, May 1.-The oratorica1 Marthon in the Senate yesterday made havoc with the hearings assign ed and the matters before the Judi ciary committee will be reassigned A minority of the committee however gave a hearing to Lawyer $. L. Sha- piro of Bridgeport in support of the petition of Joseph Niedyzwicki of that city for the return of a bond of S2OO and the legal points involved proved of great interest to the lawyers who heard the statement.
 Niedyzwickf consented to give bonds for Bridgeport man who was brought before the city court on a breach of the peace and complaint and who appealed from the decision of the court to the criminal side Of the court of common pleas and the petitioner gave the bond for his ap- pearance before the latter tribunal Having no real estate Niedyzwicki withdrew S20O from a savings bank and gave that sum to the clerk of the city court as a cash bond. When the case was called in the court of com- mon pleas the accused appeared and the bondsman's interest in the mat ter ceased He, however, did not know what was going on for the ac- cused pleaded guilty and accepted a fine with costs. To pay this and, so Lawyer Shapiro's alleged, unbeknown to Niedyzkicki, the man gave an or der on the cash bond for the whole amount of it, $150 going to Judge FL more s. Banks for the fine and costs and the remaining $50 to Lawyer Cli- tus H. King, who was counsel for the

oURDAT UnUSAUE tnDS
Discharge of Committee in Charge of Sunday Prosecu- tiOns Will Probably Finish Ultra Activities
Especial to the Farmer0

WeStport, May 17.-It is probable that Westport has seen the last of the crusade for Sunday closing for at the last meeting of the Civic club the committee appointed to carry out this project was discharged sine die. When the action of some of the ultra mem- bers of the, club was criticised, at times very severely, the public was in vited to join and get into the game. A considerable number of new mem- bers were added to the club at it's last meeting and it is probable that their votes carried the day against any further action. If there is any one in the town who cares to carry the thing any further he will prob ably have to do it on his own re- sponsibility. AS a concerted action the Sunday closing fiasco is probably at an end. If individuals care to con- tinue they must do it on their own initiative.
 The removal of Rubey's blacksmith created some little excitement. Trol- ley cars were stalled and the travel ing public indicated tis displeasure by a choice selection of biblical eXple- tives, but the blacksmith shop got there just the same, and will be lo- cated on the lot next the Embalm- ing Fluid factory.

 One of the most interesting enter tainments ever held in the town will be Aunt Hannah's Quilting party which will be given in the near future at the Methodist church. The modest and blushing spinsters of the town, dressed in costumes of a/ century ago will devote their attentions to quilt over 100 years old furnished by Mrs. A. W. Muser.
