Quarricd like our rock lCdgCS, after a SUPER
incumbent mass of earth was StrippcA oil.
For 80 to 40 cents per ton this ore is mined
and put into cals. Iron ore and cokiug
coal and limestone for fluX are rcXt door
ncighbOrs in many places; all Of them are
in prOfusiOn and are easily mined. The
natural advantages for iron production Hrc
not surpassed, if they are not surpassed, if
they are Cquallcd, anywhere else Thc
iron "bOOm" in the South is no "boOn' in
The sense that it Is iSspcCuativc and transient.
For over dozen years ii has been dcvclOD-
ing steadily and successfully. | saw 20
new furnaces in progress, some lust l"grn
and some ready to go into blast, each one
is the token Of success already gained in
the manufacture of iron in this section:

A Colloquy Between the Mayor and Fire
 Commissioner Roberts.
 At the regular monthly meeting of the fire commissioners last evening there were present Commissioners Connolly and Rob- erts with the mayor in the chair. After the monthly bills had been approved Commits sioner Connolly said that a committee con sisting of Messrs Thompson, Hynes and Coughlin of Rose Hill Hose company, were to appear before the board last evening and ask that one incandescent electric light be placed in their house. He thought the matter ought to be looked into, and as they have to use kerosene lamps it would be cheaper. Acting upon MT Connolly's suggestion the board appointed Chief Snagg to look into the matter. Chief Snagg offered a 1ecom mendation that the roof and doors of No 3's house be repaired and collar and names be purchased for one of the horses on the hook and ladder truck. Commissioner Connolly moved that 8 committee of two be appointed with power to act. Commissioner Roberts objected on the ground that there was no quorum pre- sent and all they could do was to approve the bills
 ''There is quorum present." said Mayor Boughton.
 ''There is not, as you do not constitute a member according to ruling of yours at a recent meeting" replied Commissioner Roberts.
 'But suppose I am always counted as one said the mayor.
 MT Roberts insisted on his objection.
 Do you know what the board of fire commissioners consist of!" asked Mayor Boughton.
 ''I do" said MT Roberts.
 ''Well you will find that it consists of the mayor and four Commissioners" was the information the mayor imparted to the board.
 Commissioner Connolly moved that Chief Snagg and Commissioner Roberts be appointed a committee to look into the recommendations.
 said MT Roberts,
 'But we have always done business in this way" said the mayor, and to prove his statement he referred to the minutes of the previous meetings. The mayor then put the matter to a vote, Commissioner Connolly and the mayor voting in the affirmative and MT Roberts in the mega tive
 MT Roberts refused to act on the com mittee, but no one appointed in his place and the work will fall upon Chief $. c. Snagg.
 It was voted that the chief be instructed to purchase collar and names for the horses on the hook and ladder truck. MT Roberts not voting. This was done after the chief had explained to the board the necessity of having the articles immedi- ately.
 Commissioner Connolly and Vail, who were appointed to look into the matter of purchasing wheels for No 1's steamer, recommended such a purchase and said they would cost $97. It was voted to accept the report of the committee and the meet ing adjourned until next Monday evening"

 A small number of spectators saw an ex- citing game of polo at the rink last night between the home team and the Hartfords It was 8 fine exhibition of polo playing Waterbury's old team won in the first game they played with the team pitted against the Kangaroos last night and it seemed fitting that they should win the last game with Hartford's importation Smith of the visiting team though down as center played first rush, returning to his position at center after capturing the ball. He is one of the fastest rushers in the league, but Menard and Frazier made him hustle last night and he frequently got left, too.. Williams work at goal was bril- liant. Riley for Hartford played his usual fine game at the cage. Up to the intermis- sion the game was nobody's, but when play was resumed the Waterburys walked right away from their opponents. The
