There waa a lurbl sky over Knglewood when

HC f I be made memorable by a great battle between
'K ,fr armed forces.
Kj ft But with the peaceful Sunday morning there
BV , ratae a more hopeful outlook. The Editor and
Bs. 1 '
the Colonel were alive, but still glaring at one
another from their rornere. , ,
Editor Tlllotson was at his house, surrounded
by members of hla family, when a 8US reporter
" I would not be afraid to walk by him on that
corner If I knew he had a brace of pistols," said
the editor, pointing to an adjacent afreet cor
ner. "Whenever an editor Is afraid to say
what he thinks, he had better get out of the
business. That's the way I look at It-"
" What did you mean by the reference ln your
papertnthecode?" . ., ,
'Well." said the editor." I don't believe In
aeltllng matters that way?'. ,
"Have you received a challenge from Col,
Onthrler
"I have not." . ...
"Do you expect to tecelveoner"
"Well, I understand that hy Is a hot-headed
Southerner. but I reallydon't think hewlllrnake
any more trouble. I aura that the Orand Jury
will take care of his case." .....
"Do yon think he will carry out his threat to
horsewhip you T" , ,. ....
"I guess not. You understand I am not afraid
of hlmani where. I have beenln the newspaper
business In this town for sixteen yeara and I
guesa I will be here some time."
Col. Guthrie was also surrounded by members
of his family and was seemingly In a contented
late of mind. , . .
"Oh. that mania beneath notice." said the
Colonel. "He has no place at all In the com
munity. I was ao mad over hla charge that
reputable men had forged names that 1 lost my
temper and hit him with a paper and threw a
clgaratumpat hint. He wouldn't get out of his
chair, so I lould hot do anything more to him.
I see by the paper that he claims he was dis
abled. . ... .....
" He looks pretty healthy for a disabled man,"
said tho Colonel's son. . ....
The Colonel said that lie gave himself up when
he heard that n warrant was nut for Ills arrest,
and then he went Into a detailed explanation of
the letter to Senator Smith.
" I gave It to him myself." said the handsome
keener of the Mugwump bird at Knglewood.
The war situation last evening was greatly
Improved, and tho villagers were seriously

sweethearts, were In attendance.
The ferryboats from this city were crowded.
Tho capacity of the North Hudson Hallway
Company, with all Its rolling stork In service,
and motors with trailers attached, running on
three minutes' hradway, was tested to the ut
most. It was a gala day In I'nlon Hill. Klags
were flying from every house, and tho decora
tions on many of them were very elaborate.
At the entrance to the park there was a pro
fusely decorated archway with the word " Wll
kotntuen" In big letters. The throng was so
gieat that moving about the park, extensive aa
It Is. waa in places attended with dlfllculty.
There waa no end of facilities for entertainment
and amusement. Dooths and stands are erected
all over the park. Tlio majority uf them are de
voted to the sale of beer and Frankfurter sandwiches.
A crowd of faklra made their war Into the
park early in the afternoon and set up their
thimble-rigging, three-card monte, aim other
swindling devices, hut they were iiulukly driven
out. Two men who were working the shell
game returned and were arrested.
At 4 o'clock there was a vocal concert. In
which ten societies took part. I.ederhaiiss or
chestra furnished the instrumental music. A
performance was given by the Acrobatic tl) in
nastlo Pantomime company, and there was un
Oriental ballet by 100 young women under the
direction of Mme. l itosn Herman.
The feature of the day's spurt was a tub race
III the lake. In which six young women partici
pated. The programme announced that It waa
to be a fat women's tub race, but the fattest of
the competitors didn't neigh more that lOU
pounds. The )oung women were attired In
gaudy colored bathing aults.
Margaretta Kell. ln a crimson suit and brown
stocklugs, wasthe (lrst In enter a tub. Hhe put
one foot boldl) In. and the tub careened to one
side. This made her timid, and she was more
careful In planting tha other foot, but with all
her cam she no sooner attempted to sit down lu
the tub thau It capsized and she disappeared
under the water, She came up dripping and
anld she had had enough of It.
ThetuniiHger suggested that she couldn't get
any more wet than she waa and persuaded her
lo try It again. She did try It again, and again

Miss Kell tried it three times more, and was

Nitw Canaan, Conn., Aug. 10. A peaceful
New England Sabbath day calm hovered over
New Canaan to-day, but underneath there was
inch bolting and bubbling, simmering and ste
rling, as can only be witnessed In a tempest
whose Held of violence Is confined lo a maiden
lady'a teapot. Orand Juryman Arnold was
ready for a fight, and several tradesmen In the
town were parading about with a chip on the
shoulder begging some one to knock It off ao
they could " socket to 'em."
No man ever cried hard for a fight here who
did not have his ambition satisfied. To-morrow
ought to witness some lively legal scraps be
tween opposing counsel. Barber shops, stores,
and livery stables were open for business to-day.
Eagle-eyed Sam Raymond could not escape see
ing the blue law violated aa he went to church,
and Grand Juryman Arnold aaya the violators
will be served with writs In good time.
The stores which were open wero the drug
store of I,. Mi Munro'a, the newspaper estab
lishment of Stephen K. Huscoe, the newsdealer
V. A. Dlckcrman'a shop, J. II. Wlnlers's drug
store, and the livery stables of J as. It, Itowlnnd,
J. I,. Stevens, and Irving tiockwood, and last,
but not least, "Hilly" Patterson's barber shop.
The proprietors, one and nil, aay they will stay
open and fight Arnold and hla mysterious
backer. J. II. Winter says hi has kept his storo
open for twenty yrars, and doe not Intend to
close It for any Connecticut grand Juryman.
He threatens to contest tho law In a superior
court,
Orand Juryman Arnold rose from obscurity
to fame In a day, Kor seventy-five years ho pur
sued the even tenor of his wny, unknown tn the
great world about him. One day the tenor
struck a rut, nml to-night he Is a Connecticut
Dehs. Yesterday ho told the tradesmen that,
so far as he was concerned, they could keep
open until 10 o'clock, but not a moment Inter.
Every newspaper must bo sold by that time,
every customer shaved, and the shop doors shut
up tight. Ono hundred years nnd mnro ago
Connecticut produced n mini of tho same
name, who furnished copy for school readers
for ages to come. To-day the Nutmeg
State has a new Arnold. Seated In his
castle, lie dictates terms, not to a nation
armed with swords, but tn barbers wielding
rarors. The remarkable man was dressed to

It was Emma Goldman night at the Thalia
Theatre last night. Anarchy and the other
speakers were In Ihe bark sef Everybody
talked In Kmmrv's praise. Including Kmma her
self. Kveryoody said It was a shame that she
should have been Imprisoned, nnd Kmma dwelt
npon that, too, more eloquently than nnybody
else. In between whiles a good word for anar
chy was said. It was a night of sympathy and
deification and perspiration, but no red fire. The
speeches might have been delivered beforo a
sewing circle without exciting Its members un
duly, and the ardent Anarchists, who had paid
10, 18, and SO cents to hear Ihem, came out
looking rather blank.
The theatre was crowded, and the policemen
on duty bait hard work keeping the aisles clear.
Nearly all the men sat with coats off. About
one-half the audience were women mostly
young girls whom their sweethearts had
brought, as If the thing had been a strawberry
festival. The orchestra, 20 rents, was filled
principally with Hermans; In the balcony, 16
cents, there was an Italian colony and one of
Iluaslans: the gallery was packed with young
men typical of the Bowery, who were thero prin
cipally out of curiosity, and who howled ap
proval when anyone of the speakers got ex
cited. Thirty policemen stood aliout at the entrances
to the aisles, and smiled rnmmlseratlngly when
they wero rapped particularly hard by the
speakers. When n new speaker was announced
they yawned. They had nothing to do, and they
served very well as objects for the audience to
scowl at,
Charles Wilfred Mowbray, the English agi
tator, was tho first speaker,
" Wo are gathered here," he said, " to welcome
one who was arrested bcrauso she had the
temerity to apeak what was in her mind. We
are here to show that youthful martyr what
opinion we have of her patriotic sacrifice, of the
law which makes so dastardly a thing possible,
of the cowards who carried out that law at the
behest of n capitalistic press, and the whole race
of capitalists.
" Kmma Uoldraan's Imprisonment Is no pun
ishment to one who has accepted tho Idea of an
archy. Through oppression we must strive ever
onward, conscious that some day not far dis
tant we shall prevail. Arrests matter not.
Should I be arrested hero to-night, would It
mnkoany difference "
"No! no!" cried some scoffer In the len-cmt
seats.
Mr. Mowbray frowned, and went on:
" Would tho cause havo Inst Irretrievably ?
No, fur In my place some one would arise to carry
on the fight. Perhaps our opponents think that
we've been taught a lesson ln tho arrest and Im
prisonment or one of our brightest stars. We
have. We have been taught the lesson that our
foes give no quarter, that they are merciless and
conscienceless. Now we know what we havo to
contend with '1 hat Is tho lesson we have been
taught.
" We will fight together. Pntll you learn that
courage your fathers had vou'll be slaves to the
capitalist class. Iet tl all, then, stick together
and fight together, crying always ' Ylve I'Anar
chle !'"
Although most, of the audience pronounced
the phrase differently from Mr. Mowbray, they
were not unwilling to auhscrlbe to It, and the
echoes Miunded Into the tiles.
B) this tlmo many had glow n Impatient for
Emuiit lloldluau, mi they did nut look pleased
when the Slgnorlna Murla Kodu was Introduced
tospeuk in Italian, nur when, following, Frati
lein Sarah Kdvlstudt came forward with some
Ideoa In tiertunti. But those two young women
nt lt denlsted. and when a little figure clod lu
black emerged from the wings there waa a
mighty cheer that lusted a full minute. It waa
Emmu.
She was stouter than she was before 'her Im
prisonment, but otherwise she vtaa the same.
There wan the same odd conformation of Jaw,
the Htttne i oalsc mouth, tho on me cold eyed, the
same lualgulflcitncu of figure. She was dressed
In black, with the white of peace around her
throat lu place uf tbobtood-red neckties of the
other women. She was perfectly self-possessed,
and whllo thvappluue was going on sha
Biirvejed her audience coolly and critically
through lit r eyeghtasee.
"line I am again." she announced. "Why
