STAMFORD
Special to The T1mesl

6tratford, July 22.-The old ada&e which reads. Good goods come done up in smell packages" was clearly demonstrated to be correct last even ing in OronoQue when Sheriff Mia1s Tomlinson, assisted only by his young /. putting three men, the pghtest of whom weighed ITO pounds, away for the count in a fight which lasted nearly 20 minutes. The men, who were accompanied by a friend who was unable to take part in the fracas owing to his intoxicated condition, were returning from South Norwalk in handsome new seven passenger Chandler touring car which they had borrowed from its owner, Louis Co., f~ne, of Derby, had arrived in Oron- e-ue, near Sheriff Tominson's home, when apparently they decided that it was too early to go home, driving the car up past the sherins house several times ey finally stopped. The driver of the car, Thomas A. Carroll, a chauf- feur by occupation, living at 104 Main street, Derby, who had been drinking from appearance quite freely laid his head on the steering wheel when his companions began to call for him to proceed, using vulgar language. At this point Sheriff Tom1inson entered the party, asking the driver to show his drivers license. At this question tho driver became violently mad and jumped from the car, aSsaihng the sheriff with an the force behind a we'll developed young man of 240 pounds. Sheriff Tom1inson was caught un- awares by the infuriated man who had the best of the fraces for a second when the sheriff slipped away from his assailant, landing several telling blows in quick succession. The sur- prise that the others received when they saw the sheriff getting the best of the friend brought Eugene Fer raro, 14 Caroline street, Derby, and Lawrence Moriarty, 84 Minerva street, Derby out of the car to take part in the fight and not on the side of the sheriff who had by this time got his second wind and who sailed into the three young men, subduing the trio just at the time of the arrival of the police patrol with Sergeant Benjamin Smith and Officer Hanford Bigelow, who assisted in loading the men into the patrol and brought them to the police headquarters where Carroll was charged with assault, driving a car while under the influence of liquor, resistance and having no drivers li- cense. He was held under a bond of $500. Ferraro was charged with drunkenness, assault and resistance and was held under bonds of $50. Moriarty, charged with interference with an officer and drunkenness, was held under bonds of $50. Sheriff Tom linson received from the mixup a shirt torn from his back and a small cut under the left eye. The others were considerably worse off than the sheriff in this respect, but could be recog- nized after taking a good wash. A pint bottle half full of whiskey was confiscated as result of the fracas. The owner of the car, Louis Colone, came to Stratford early in the even ing and took the machine home.

Several hours were spent trying to relieve the condition which proved of no avail and being miles from civilization they decided rather than walk back to the city they would sleep in the car until morning. Wayne could do this, but Herbert, whose legs were too long to sleep on seat of the machine with comfort, bundled up on the side of the road and passed the remainder of the night. Their slumbers were interrupted by a black crow on the limb of high tree greet ing the awakening of another day with his cav.
