from Bridgeport gave an entertainment
In St Patrick' hall. The weather being
stormy maJe It Impossible for many to

enough to be present thoroughly en
Joyed It and speak well of the acting
. abilities of the young ladles who have so
kindly offered to appear again oc next

vorably known. The admission to tbe

TBISITZ'S IXOWER SHOW.
At the generations succeed each other,
old ways are being Improved upon and
new methods are being adopted to foster
and cultivate the social element of our
community. It matter not what form
the effort may take,the material seems to
be forth-corning and the co-operation
hearty enough to make tbe movement a
success. The chrysanthemum show that
came off at the Town hall, last week, was
no exception to the rule, but far exceed
ed In extent and beauty any thing the
most sanguine had anticipated. It was
the culmination of a project set forth in
tbe early spring by the rector of Trinity
church, who superintended the distribu
tion of plant among the Sunday school
children and others, to be cared for by
each recipient through tbe season, and
brought together in early November for
exhibition. The wealth of beauty at the
hall was almost marvelous. Banked
against the wall on each side the main
entrance two tier high were over 300
not of chrysanthemum plants in full
bloom of great variety of form and color.
Tbe broad platform at tbe rear of tbe
hall was tilmmed with evergreens, while
a row of choice potted plants and cut
flower contributed by florists from Dan
bury on the front produced a pleasing
effect. Crowd of people visited the
show daring Thursday, and in the even
ing a concert was given, such as New
town people seldom bave an opportunity
to enjoy, by out of town , talent. The
seating capacity of tbe hall was well
tested, and tbe proceeds generous. Tbe
crowds In attendance on Friday showed
nodimlnuution of interest and in tbe early
evening the settee were removed and an
entertainment such as Newtown lad es
are famous for, was given. Five tables,
with a seating capacity of 10 for each
one, were arranged about tbe room sever
ally presided over by Mrs Dr Smith, Mrs
William J. Beecher, Mrs E. F. Hawley,
Mrs Charles F. Beardsley and Miss Kls-
aatn. The arrangement of tbe tables
was beautiful In artistic effect, the spread
bountiful, and the service so deftly rend
ered by tbe three waitresses who served
at each table was complete. Tbe net
proceed of the flower show from the
csncert, the supper end sale of flowers
r tl&O. Certainly the projector of the
C ".rprlse that resulted so well financial
j taJ was so rt fining and elevating In
:(' aracter.bas ukt cause for thankful-
, r A'. ail who lent a hand la any
' - rake It a success may feel a

ed to so good a work. , The flowers of
yesterday will fade and wither away,
but pleasant memories of the flower
show will linger through the winter to
blossom In tbe spring with new resolves,
and purposes to make Trinity's second
chrysanthemum show better than its
flrst. .
THE GEAY'S PLUS SCHOOL TROUBLE.
EXCITEMENT AT FHVER HEAT. ,
in u rays nam school muddle ap
pears to be growing more complicated.
On Monday Messrs Brew and Northrop
visited the school house, broke In and
placed Miss Ryan in possession. Later
in tbe day Mr Winton, the committee
man, again took charge, discharged Miss
Ryan and put a new lock on the school
bouse door. ,
But the excitement arose to fever heat
on Wednesday, when Messrs Brew and
Northrop again broke Into the school
house, placed Miss Ryan In possession
and left Mr Ryan, her father, to see that
she was not molested. Committeeman
Winton with Munson Clark, H. G. Clark
and G. W. Bradley, went to the school
S- a -v ...
uic. Mr ityan met tnem witn an up
lifted ax, threatening to "split their
heads open" If they entered the school
house. Mr Winton caught hold of the
ax, and there was a struggle for its pos
sesion. Messrs Munson Clark and G
W . Bradley were slightly cut upon the
hand. Miss Ryan was then put out of
schoolhouse. The school door was not
only locked, this time, but rails were set
and nailed against it. The shutters were
nailed up and the windows firmly se
cured.
Reports without number were circula
ted about town about Wednesday's con
flict. One wbs that Mr Bradley bad
struck Miss Ryan in fjecting her from
tbe schoolhouse, but this he promptly
denies.
The feeling throughout the district is
ntense and all Thursday lawyers were
it; consulted and probably some ar-
re ti are being made as we g? to press.
Public sentiment U decidedly with the
di t Her. It may be the duty of the three
meuibc-rs of tbe school, who have taken
tbe recent action that has brought about
the present state of things, to keep the
school open, but the public generally
se ru to think that the district should
not have a teacher foisted upon it that it
has voted to reject, especially when there
are good teachers that can be secured.
But the courta will be called upon to de
li le the case.
