WATCHERS WAIT FOR WAVES TO WASH UP
 DROWNING VICTIMS
Tragic Outcome of Labor Day Outing of Five Bridgeporters - One Sur vivor Jailed.
Especial to The Farmer,

Fairfield, Sept 3-Fairf1eld beach is being patrolled today by watchers, throw up the bodies of George Nan nery of Wood avenue and John Me- Keon of Clinton avenue, Bridgeport, drowned yesterday afternoon when a companions were being tossed about by a choppy sea, capsized- The three companions, Arthur Marlstrom Of Clin- ton avenue, Joseph Collins, Railroad avenue and William Carpenter, all of Bridgeport, narrowly escaped a watery grave.
 The three owe their lives to the prompt actions of Levi s. Cobb of Bridgeport and Frank Bennett of New York, a cottager at the beach. They had been buffeted about in the heavy sea with the upturned boat as their only support. With every wash over the skiff threatening to tear their holds the three waited for what seem ed hours. but which in reality was not more than one hour for rescuers. A wind blowing shorewards carried their cries for help to the ears of Cobb and Bennett. The latter two set out in a row boat. Their speed was slow against the buffeting sea but they finally drew alongside the overturned craft succeeding in getting the three aboard. When the rescuers reached shore numerous willing hands aided the three rescued who were more dead than alive.
 When able to tell their experience, the three staggered the listeners with questions to the safety of their other two companions. Then it dawn others had been washed into the sea and were lost. Several parties set out in the direction of the overturned craft, but their efforts were futile.
 All last evening and until early this morning cottagers with lanterns pa trolled the shore. With day light, the vigil was continued but to no avail. This morning some of the mere dar ing donned bathing suits and dove about in the location where the bodies are supposed to be.
 The five young men started out from Bridgeport yesterday about noon intent on a Labor Day celebration. When the start was made there was 8 heavy sea. running but the party felt confident that they could weather the sea. Their trip along the shore was treacherous and according to one of the five. one of the number fell over board half way between Penfie1d reef cued, but shortly after the boat cap- sized. The rescued have but a vague idea of what happened. One gives story that when the boat became ov- erturned all five succeeded in secur- ing a hold on the slippery bottom, but that the drowned two were washed away. The waves were running high, it was raining and there was a heavy mist at the time Another of the sur vivors states that when the craft cap sized, but three, those rescued, secur- saw the other two carried away and out of sight.
 William Carpenter. one of the sur vivors, presented himself at the Bridgeport police station last evening, stating that he was drunk and ask ing to be locked up. His request was granted. To those at the station house he told the narrowing story of his af- ternoon's experience. This Inorning he was given five days in jail

c. 6. WALDO, JR.
 BEATS HILTON
 IN GOLF MATCH

Chicago Golf Club, Wheaton, Ills, Sept. 3.-With near and former stars eliminated from play in the National Amateur Golf Championship, the re- maining 32 teed off, today, in the first match round. Clear, warm weather, following yesterdays rains, freshened the green. A. large gallery turned out to follow the Hilton-Wa aid O and Til1inghast matches. Hil- ton and Evans were p1cked to win.
 Experts believed that Walter Trav- is, of the Metropolitan club three time winner of national titles, was due for the discard. He was match ed with Harry Legg, the Minneapolis crack, holder of the trans Mississippi championship.
 Waldo, of .Brook1awn, Conn, cham pion, led Harold H. Hilton at the end of the first nine holes Waldo was playing top golf and Hilton's com to obtain a lead.
 Hilton started out badly by slicing into a bunker. He used his brassie out of the bunker and put his bali to the edge of the green. They haIved this hole in four. Another slice by Hilton on the next hole enabled Wal third both played excellent golf and the hole was again halved in four.
 Waldo topped his drive on the 5th and the first victory of the round went to Hilton, 4-5. Hilton held wonderful chance to capture the next hole when he was on the green in 
 to Waldo, who ran down long putt for a five, Hilton taking six. Hilton drove out of bounds on the 7th and Waldo went into the lead, winning the hole 5-6.
 Failure to hold an easy putt on the eighth gave Waldo a lead of two holes over Hilton and when the east erner put his nidiron shot off the tee dead to the hole on the 9th and took a three, he had Hilton three down at the turn. The cards follow: Hilton, out 4 6 5 3-39 Waldo, out. f 5 4-36
 Evans had Tillinghast one down at the 11th hole. Evans was playing his tee shot we'll but his putting was off color.
 r The Waldo-HiIton match was the feature of today's play. Waldo play ed a careful, consistent game, with few misses while Hilton was away off on his drives. After being 3 down at the turn, Hilton played an excel lent second shot after a fair drive and holed out a putt of 15 feet for a three on the 10th. Waldo putted bad and took D. The 11th was halved in five, while Waldo regained his lead of three on the 12th, when he took the hole 3-4. They haIved the next two in 5 and respectively, while Waldo took the 16th, 17th and 18th, As, 3-4, and 4-5. On the last hole, Waldo had a chance to increase He was on the green close to the flag but took two butts, while Hilton was on in two and took two butts, win ing the hole. The scores follow: Hilton, in 3 5 4-39-77 Waldo, in 5 54 4 5-33-74

REILLY MAY
 BRING WILSON
 TO BRIDGEPORT
Congressman Has Assur- ances From Candidate That He'll Visit
 Connecticut

Meriden, Conn, Sept s-Congress- man Thomas L. Reilly today announc- ed that he had received assurances from Gov. Woodrow Wilson that he will include Connecticut in his cam paign speaking tour. MT. Reilly had conference with Gov. Wilson at Sea Girt, N. J., Saturday.
 MT. Reilly says that two of the few set speeches the Democratic candidate will make during the campaign will be delivered in Connecticut. One will be in New Haven in the afternoon and the other in Hartford in the even ing of the day the candidate invades Connecticut.
 Gov. Wilson will make extempor- aneous speeches, MT. Reilly said, in cities along the line from New York to Hartford.
 Congressman Reilly was called on the phone today by a Farmer reporter and asked if Bridgeport would be in c1uded in Gov. Wilson's itinerary through the state. The congressman said that while no definite plans had been made for a speech here, it is very probable that the governor can be induced to tarry here awhile and bring a message of Democracy to Bridgeport.
 Town Chairman W. W. Bent is work ing to get the governor to make an extended address in this city.

SMITH FOR PROBATE JUDGE; NO RUSH
 FOR OTHER PLACES

Attorney John Smith will in all probability be the choice of the dele gates chosen at the Republican city and town convention tonight as nomi- nee for the office of Probate Judge, and delegates committed or favora ble to his nomination will undoubtedly be elected at tonight'S convention. Jucge Edward P. Nobbs, who has received the nomination for the last few years, of course will not be considered at to- nights convention.
 Few contests are expected to develop at the convention. The machine ticket will very likely receive the una animous endorsement and the con- ivention will last but a short time. J. A. H. Robinson has been the only name mentioned in connection with nominations for the State Senate. He will probably get the party support as candidate for that office from the 2Srd district, and is known to be in a re- ceptive mood. So far as other can little mention made. It is apparent that there is little eagerness on the part of the Republicans to get :he party nominations this year because of the many indications of a complete Democratic victory.
 Attorney Smith said this forenoon that he had been approached by many people upon the question of running for the Probate judgeship and that he would not decline the nomination if the party gave it to him. ''I have made no effort to get the nomination and shall not he said. Tt isn't the fight if the party desires to have

HUMAN TORCH IS
 TAKEN TO HOSPITAL
Oil Soaked Clothes Afiame Are Smothered In Bur
 laps By Comrades

A flaming torch of fire was Michael Waterman, 45 years old, 132 Church street, when his oil soaked clothing became ignited shortly after noon in the Pequonnock Foundry Co.,, Fifth St., extension. His condition is said to be critical at the Bridgeport hospi- tai to which he was removed in the emergency ambulance.
 Waterman is employed in the ship ping room of the foundry and was de- tailed to fill a number of torches used for dry cores with Illuminating fluid His clothing became oil soaked in the operation and while holding one of the lighted receptacles an explosion took place which entirely covered him with the burning fluid. Instantly the flames shot upward entirely envelop- ing him. Fortunately other workmen were present who seizing him in bur laps hurried him tc a nearby hydrant where he was deluged with water. To this hasty action on the part of those present the physicians ascribe his al- most miraculous escape from being burned alive.
 telephone call to the emergency hospital was responded to by the au- tomobIIe ambulance and soothing To- tions were applied by Dr. c. R. Platt after which he was hurried to the hos pital fer further treatment.
