LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. The time for shooting squirrel com- tencos Nov. 1st. Mr. Fagan, has raised M 3 ham on his lot on Franklin avenue. The DEBBisfrom the old public school on Trinity street, is nearly’ cleared away. ______ _______ A t e a r tree on the p roperty of Capt. Jewell, is heavily covered with blos soms, for the second time this season. T h e Huguenot Engine Company held tlieir annual ball at the town hall, on Wednesday evening. I t was well at tended. T h e annual ball of the Irish Benevo lent Society a t the town hall Tuesday evening of next week, (Nov. 2nd), b i d B fair to equal if not surpass all former occasions of the k ind Miss Mary Archer, was married ou ednesday afternoon, a t h er residence >per New Rochelle, to Daniel Thomp- l of Portcliester. M b . and Mas. J. Q. U n d e rhill, of Locust avenue, entertained a circle of friends and acquaintances on. Saturday evening last. Supebvisob Phelps requests th a t all bills against the county, to be placed in Ms charge, should bo handed in on or before Nov. 10th. O n Saturday evening, November 4th, .there will be raffled for a t Om' House, Pelham road, a brcecli loading shot gun in complete order of improved make. School Rodbery. —One night last week the school house at Uppor Now Rochelle, was broken into nnd robbed of upwards of $20. worth of books Among those taken was Webstor’s Un. abridged Dictionary. T h e New Rochelio Mannercliof, wil hold a grand ball. The affair will be a merry one and an indication as to liow tho-masquerado will bo attendod. The -ball will usher in Thanksgiving day. Mr. 0. E. Byrne, has opened a den tal offices in the brick building, on the corner of Main street and Centre avenue. Mr. Byrne has many substan tial recommendations in the shape of years of practice, and with [very little effort he can build a practice. One year ago, irrespective of party affilation the Republican of this town almost in a body, voted for M. J. Dil- lion, for Superintendent of the Poor, not only because b e was looked upon as fully competent to fill the office, but because he was a townsman and favor ably known. This year a townsman, Mr. Jolm Sheehan is. nominated upon the Republican ticket for tho same office, it remains to he seen if the Dem ocrats are willing to vote for him as a return for tho Republican support given to Mr. Dillon last year. School E lection. —A t the rooent school election, Upper New Roohelle J. Albert Malilstedt was rc-elccted a mombcr of the Board. The sum of $1,200 was appropriated for school purposes for tho ensuing year. When taken into consideration tho muub,er of scholars with tho fair grade of this school, the amount appropriated would seem inadequate. Judicious and care ful management on the part of tbo Board, and the present principal, doubtless has much to do with tbo sufficiency of the same. Tiif. attention of the public is called to the advertisement of Dr. \William Hepburn in another column, who has opened Dental offices on Prospect street, this village. The Flushing daily Times of Saturday last in reference to him say : “Dr. Willinm 0. Hepburn, a brother of L ieutenant Hepburn, of Hepburn & James, is about to establish himself ill New Rochelle, Dr. Hepburn has just graduated from the Collego of Dental Surgery in Baltimore, Md. H is many friends in Flushing, who remember him as a student with Dr. E. Parmly Brown, will bo pleased to loam of bis success and the best wishes of the com munity will follow him to liis new home.” W ithout doubt by industry aud p e r severance together with such reference ns Dr. E. Parmly Brown, l b -. Hepburn will soon establish a lucrative practice. Reward O ffered.— Owing to tho d a s tardly work of somo malicious scoun drels who for some time past, in one way or anothor havo committed dep redations about Trinity Church and grounds adjoining, the vestry have boon obliged to offor a reward of fifty dollars forinformation that will lead to tho arrest and conviction of tbo guilty ones. No longer ago than last Sunday morning when about timo for service, tlio sexton found in opening tho door of tho church fionting tho cemetery, that tho vestibule nnd stops leading to tho same wore covered with filth and slops, evidently several pails full of the filthy matter had boon emptied purposely thoro for some unknown rea son. Since this occurrence, also sov- oral lights of the stained glass windows liavo beon broken, and not long since as previously stated, in T he Pioneer, several graves in tho adjoining ceme tery have been dosecratod upon divers occasions, in some instances head stones have been broken nnd demol ished. L a c k o f S y m p a t h y . —How some of the Bridgeport people think nnd talk concerning the recent tunnel disaster at Eighty-second street, nnd tho sub sequent indignation meeting hold in the town hall, this villngo, may ho in ferred from the following article taken from tho Bridgeport Farmer. “The commuters living nt Now R o cholle, held a meeting a day or two ago and denounced the New Haven Road for tho accident at the tunnel recently. The facts are, as every intelligent pass enger knows, that the Now Ilaven Road has two termini at the west. Ono is at Harlom Rivor, tho othor is at \Williams Bridge. Trains that go to Harlem Rivor nover enter tho tunnol. Trains that go to Forty-second streot pass a t Williams Bridge into the control of the New York Contrnl, which leases and operates the Harlem. Along this lino the New Haven engineer must obey tho signal men of the Central. To blame the Consolidated Road for tbis acci dent is as ridiculous as to blame tlio New York and New England for any accident that might happen to its WasMngton express between bero and Harlem Rivor. I t is very easy to g et excited and censure some one—but mon of common intelligence should use a little common sonse.” Evidently tho New Haven Railroad Company lias an earnest sympathizer in tho office of the above named p eri odical. R a g p i c k e r s C o n v i c t e d . —On Monday 4th, Italian ragpickers wore arrested by Officer Kelly on complaint made before Justice LeCount for assaulting and using indecent language toward parties on the premises of Philip God- fred noar Pelhamville. On being a r raigned for trial on Tuesday, a jury consisting of C-. C. YanBenschoton, H. B. Boyd, Fred New, Mr. Jauz, S. Levi- son, and Morris Abrams were em paneled. Under tho circumstances it was thought proper to dismiss tho complaint against two of the accused, being but mem' children ns they were, the trial of tho othor two lasting up wards of two hours, tlio testimony bo- ing conflicting in the extreme. Tho jury after fifteen minutes retirement ren dered a verdict of guilty with a recom mendation of mercy. The court there upon sentenced ono to pay a fine of ten dollars, or imprisonment in tho County jail, the other to a fine of fivo dollars, o r a liko imprisonment. Coun sellor O. E. Kene represented tho prosecution and in absenco of Counsel for the accused, Master Bertie ltooso- velt volunteered the prisonors defenco, and so ably pleaded their causo as to call forth tho highest compliments not only from a throng of bystanders, but from the magistrate upon tho bench. The fines were promptly paid by a friend of the accused from the city. The Railroad 'Depot hereafter is to be kept open all night. M b . A. B. H u d s o n ’s new house will be ready for occupancy December 1st. Two new houses itre being erected 011 Franklin avenuo, b y Mr. Youngs, Attorney. The Now Rochelle Mamnerchor will have a family sociable on Thursday, Oct, 26, at Burnett’s Hall. The government vessel Polynia is surveying along shore between this place and Mamaroneck. E. G o v e r s is constructing a largo well a t the Mineral W ater Factory on Main street. It lias already reached considerable depth. C h a r l e s C l a r k s o n , of Harlem, has beon appointed niglit wateliman at tbe New York and New Haven Railroad Depot a t this place. T h e r e will he a raffle at tho Centen nial House, November 11th, for a Bay Ifoise, said to he kind and gentlo, safe for a lady to drive. D e s p i t e the fact that $20,000 was appropriated for the removing of ob structions in tho channel around Glen Island and the uppor harbor, nothing has been done. T i i e State law imposes a fine of $100. on people stoaling flowers from ceme teries. Any one caught hereabouts will liavo to pay tho fino and may ho one year in jail added. F e s t i v a l . —A grand Punch-card festi val, will he givon hy tho sisters and brothers of tho A. M. E. Zion Church of Now Rochelle, Rev. T. J. Harper, Pastor, on Thursday ovening, Novem ber 22d, 1882, as announced by circu lar. The old Biitus mill at Premium Point, that lias stood tho storms for a generation and more, a laud mark and lone sentinel aq it prominently appears to every ono wlio has traveled Long Island Sound hy day light, will ere long b e entirely removed. A Stf.p Forwabd. — Arrangements have been made and hereafter the Telegraph Office at this placo will ho kept open nightly. William Hynes, formerly operator at Forty-second street Depot, will he in charge. This i a g reat accommodation to the public nt large, and doubtless will he fully ap preciated. S e r i o u s l y I n j u r e d . —John Moore, a brnkeman on the Naw Haven Railroad, residing at Now RochoUe, while in the act of coupling cars nt Stamford, Conn., on Tuesday night, was caught between tho same and seriously if not fatally injured, haring threo ribs broken and otherwise bruised about tho body. The injured mnn was brought to New RocheUe dopot early Wednesday morn ing and from thenco taken to a Hos pital in New York city. Moore is a step son of Wm. Goulding. The complaints preferred by certain detectives from New York against three hotel keepers of tho town of Pelham which were once sot aside by the Com missioners of Excise for irregularities in proceeding, on motion of Counsoj Kene for the dealers, were renewed and on Thursday the 10th inst., a sec ond attempt to havo tho licenses re voked was mado by certain citizens of City Island. Tho second attempt wo learn was also defeated, and on the 26th inst., the Exciso Board dismissed finally tho complaints. A S a d A c c i d e n t . —On Saturday even ing about dusk, an up train on tho New York and New Haven Railroad, when near the Jerusalem crossing, struck a woman who h a d a child in h o r arms a t the time and walking upon the track, the chiljl was kUled. The woman who afterwards proved to bo its mother and the wife of WiUiam Palmer, of Jerusalem, was seriously if not fatally injured. The timo is fast approncliing whon ono who values lifo cannot afford to make the railroad track a public thoroughfare. The existing law prohib iting the same would bo sufficient if properly enforced. P o u l t r y O r d i n a n c e . —It may ho in teresting to farmers of New Roohelle to know that tho following Poultry Or dinance took effect October 1, 1882, in New York city. S e o . 1. That no turkeys or chickens be offered for sale in tlio city unless the crops of such turkeys nnd chickens are freo from food or other substance, and shrunken close to their bodies. That all fowls oxposed for sale in viola tion of this ordinance shall be seized and condemnod, such of them ns shnU be tainted shall, upon examination, bo destroyed and the l'OBt which is fit for food shall bo used in tho publio insti tutions of tho city. S e c . 2. Every person exposing for sale any chicken or turkoy in contra vention of this ordinance shall he liable to a penalty of fivo dollars for each chicken or turkoy bo exposed for salo. ROOD AND RAWSON feWC'DEB. The grand jury on Wednesday con cluded its investigation of tho recent collision in the Fourth avonue tunnel by which three persons lost their lives. Among tho witnesses in attendance were Superintendent Toucey, of the New York Central Railroad, and other officials. The inquiry resulted in tho ordering of the indictment for man slaughter iii tho fourth degree against William 0. B. Rawson, tho telegraph operator nt Ninety-sixth street, and Georgo E. Rood, the conductor of the Now Haven train. No indictment was ordered against tlio water-boy Robins, who ns well as the conductor and tele graph operator, was held by the Cor oner’s jury for criminal negligence while acting as a brakeman. It was expected that the members of the grand inquest' would havo mado some referenco to the management of tho road, h u t they disposed of the mat ter by making certain suggestions which the railroad officers are in 110 way bound to act upon. After stating that they had carefully investigated tlio facts in connection with the collision nnd inspected the scene, tho members of the grand inquest, in their present ment, s a y : “We believe that the best safeguard against similar disasters is to allow b u t one train on each outward nnd one train on each inward track between Fifty-sixtli and Ninety-sixth streets, and permit no train to enter tho tunnel until a return telegram has been re ceived that tho preceding train lias passed through the tunnel. By this plan we believe all risks from collision in the tunnol will he reduced-to amin- imura. The tjignal nion at each end of the tunnel should bo thoroughly coinep- tont, of good character, sober and in telligent, and not under twenty-one yenrs of ago. We recommend as a fur ther procnution that the bloqk system ofjiignals bo placed on all the tracks passing through the three tunnel. Wo find that tho rear car o f tho New Haven train was ono of very old construction having b u t two longitudinal timbers, one on each side, and connected only by cross-pieces in tho form of a ladder, whereas cars of later construction have from four to six longitudinal timbers, thus offering greater resistance. When the engine of tho\ Harlem train struck tho old car there was not sufficient lon gitudinal timhors to resist the blow, and it brnko the cross-pieces liko so many reeds. We claim for tho public that cars of this old construction should not bo used for passengers traffic. And tho Grand July also that the threo tun nels b e well and thoroughly lighted with electric lights, aud that moro ventila tion bo provided in order to clear them more rapidly of smoke, steam, and cin ders. Wo urgently recommend, the members of tho grand inquest say, in conclusion, tho Legislature to take up this subject and enact such laws ns will speedily bring nbont the changes here recommended.” Tho presentment, which was B i g n c d by Mr. Caleb B. Knovals, foreman, was plated on file. ^ The indictments against Rawson and Rood are being drafted. Chief Clerk Donnolly, of the District Attorney’s office, stntes that the indictments against tho conductor and brakeman held responsible for the Spuyten Duy- vil disnster would be tried in the Court of Oyer and Terminer New York city next month. - -■ \ A M y OF THANKSGIVING.
