making splendid showing for this
season of the year. The cabbage,
sweet peas, garden peas and onions
are in fourishing condition. The
strawberries are covered for winter.
The individual hot-beds promise an
abundant supply of plants for early
planting. The flower garden is at
tracing attention now. The hya-
cinths, narcissus and other bulbs are
in full bloom. Pansy and daisy
plants have been transplanted. The
hedges have been pruned and hard
wood nettings made for the purpose
of extending them. Our lawn of
blue grass is beautiful now. 1t has
formed a carpet of green.
On Thursday, January 80, party
from Union High school, accompa-
MED by Miss Stubbs, left for Colum-
bia to attend the corn show. While
there they visited all the exhibitions

SWEENEY CHARGES
WITNESSES AGAINST
HIM OF PERJURY

New York, Feb. 24.-In pleading
not guilty to the Indictment of brib-
cry, former Police Inspector Dennis
Sweeney, today, charged through his
counsel, Attorney Talley, that the wit
nesses against him before the grand
jury were guilty of perjury. Accord
ing to Attorney Ta1ley, the specific
charge of bribery, on which the in
dictment was based, had been proved
false by the official police records
which showed that Inspector Sweeney
was not in charge of the Harlem dis
trict in 1911 at the time he is accused
of accepting protection money from
George Sipp, hotel keeper, but was on
service in Brooklyn.
Refusing to the end to f'squeaI' on
her confederates, Rosie Hertz, for 80
years proprietor of a string of dis
orderly houses in the east side and
one of the principal white slave opera
tors in the. city, was sentenced, today,
by Justice Collins to a year in the
penitentiary. In passing sentence, the
court said:
F'This woman had but one virtue
she has refused to bertay either her
co-conspirators or her victims. She
has persistent1y violated the law. Only

IMMEDIATE STEPS
NEEDED TO STOP
SCHOOL CONGESTION

Immediate steps to relieve congested
conditions in Bridgeport schools are
recommended in the report of DR..
James H Van Sickle, of Springfield,
Mass who has been investigating
the school system of this city. DR..
Van Sickle's report is now in the
hands of N w. Bishop, chairman OF
the special subcommittee in charge
of the work, and is ready for the
Board of Education at it's meeting to-
night.
The findings of DR.. Van Sickle are
contained in a vo1uminous document.
Much of his report deals with the
crowded conditions of the schools
here. The expert recommends that
the size of classes be cut to an aver
age of 80 pupils to a teacher, and to
do this more schools will be neces-
sary.
The Board of Education will con-
slider the new High school question
again tonight and hear from the spe-
ciaI committee that conferred with
James Gamble Rogers, the architect.

VICTIM OF GRUDGE
FIGHT BADLY HURT:
TAKEN TO HOSPITAL

A most brutal assault, resulting in
a broken nose, severe decorations OF
the face and possible internal injuries,
was committed upon James Della, 269
assaf1ants who lay in wait for him at
Sanford and Harra11 avenues.
The occurrence which was the SUBJ
ject of many calls for the police DUR
ing its progress and brought PATROL
men Glennon, Ladd and McGirr to
the scene just as the attacking party
fled, is said to have had it's inception
in the disturbance which eliminated
in arrests last Saturday night at
Fa g1es' hail.
Although the police have not as vet
made any arrests the name of at least
one young man prominent in sporting
circles has been heard mentioned in
connection with the affair. It is ru-
mOred that one of the >assailante lost
an index finger in the ARRAY.
According to such detail as could
be secured by the police from the VIC
tim before he was taken to St. Vim
cents hospital for further observa-
ton, he left his work at the Thomas
p. Taylor factory at noon, going to-
wards his home. He had reached the
corner of Sanford and Harran avenues
when he was set upon by three men
he processes not to recognize He can
give no reason for the attack but says
that he was beaten and kicked until
unconscious.
Taken by spectators to a neighbor-
ing drug store he was revived and
with the emergency ambulance and
found that he had a deep laceration
upon the forehead, requiring six
stitches. His nose had been broken
and he was covered with cuts and
bruises. AS he complained of much
pain in the abdominal region he was
taken to the hospital that internal in
Juries might be cared for.

postponed by De La Barra when the
death of the former president and

Beyond a brief message from Ann

as yet has received no detailed report
on how Madero and Suarez met their
deaths.
The ambassador, in transmitting
the despatch which he said had been
dictated by Huerta himself at the
palace; promised further particulars
when events have shaped themselves
so that he could more easily get at
the exact faces. The rush of bust
ness was so great and business so up

BOB BIRMINGHAM
VISITS THIS CITY

Bob Birmingham a former resident
of this city who has been in Cali

shaking hands with his numerous
friends and talking over old times.
Mr.. Birmingham is now located in
Mameda. Cal. He is in the lumber
business and is very prosperous.
Old time football enthusiasts will re-

back of the Yannigan eleven which
conquered all corners in 1899, 1900 and
1901. In the latter year Mr.. Birming-
ham was captain.
The veteran paid a visit to Harry
Quinn's Fairfield avenue muciIage

ed on the Yannigan eleven, greeted
his old friend warmly and insisted
upon opening a couple of bottles of
glue. The old gridiron battles were
played all over again and the stir
ring games with the Naugatuck
elevens in 1901 when the Rubber town
sent a special train here, were fought
once more.

elect Wilson of April 1, for the open
ing of the extra session of Congress
was voiced by House Democratic
Leaders, today.
Representative Underwood declared
the date most agreeable"
Everything will be ready by that
time he declared.
Trenton, Feb. 24-AIthough Presi-
dent-elect Wilson today tried to main
tain absolute silence regarding his
cabinet and regarding the reports Of
friction between him and William J.
Bryan, over the single term plank OF
the Democratic platform and the per-
sonnet of his official family, it is stat
ed here in apparently reliable quarters
that Bryan will be secretary Of state;
that instead of there being friction
between Wilson and Bryan there is
the utmost harmony and cordiality.
The Wilson cabinet-about which
the President-elect for week has de-
clined to ta1k-it not/yet complete in
the mind Of its maker, according to
the belief expressed at Trenton. It
is thought there are still three of four
places which Gov. Wilson has not
definitely upon. The identity of the
men in the President elects mind is
being guarded by him as carefully as
ever.
