DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES.
Men Who Will Choose Delegates to u

Men Who Will Choose Delegates to the
 State Convention.
 The democratic primaries yesterday re- suited in the choice of the following mem bers of the town convention which elects delegates to the state convention to be held at Hartford, May 3:
 First ward-F. J. Rametti, John J. Mcdonald, John H. Moran, William Cosgrove Alfred Wolf % Second wardNeson Sedaa Morris w. D. Carter field. Henry F. Cunningham, J. J. Phelan, Michael
 Fourth ward-Timothy ORourke, William Mo- Grath, Daniel Mccarthy, William c. Moore, James Slayen, John Fitzpatrick, Edward s. Cullen.
 The primaries were attended with little interest. There were contests in all the wards except the Third In the First the Neville ticket was defeated by twenty -four majority and in the Second the ticket head ed by Perry c. Morris, with the names of Edward B. Hardie, Arthur Andrews, Ed ward Fox and John Doolan, was beaten In the Fourth the Boughton ticket was defeated by the O'Rourke ticket, the for mer receiving 194 votes to the latter 273. There were charges and counter charges concerning the count in this ward. Four hundred and sixty-seven ballots were found in the box and only 464 names were checked but the disparity did not effect the result.
 There was no political significance in the contests, the tickets only representing two factions who worked for the success of their candidates, but it made no material difference who went from this or that ward to the town convention. The article in a morning paper that there was Barnum and an anti-Barnum crowd is said to have originated with parties de- sirous of claiming influence in local pol itics. The date of the town convention will be fixed by the town committee.

ALLEGATIONS OF BIGAMY.
Serious Charges Against New Have
 Man.

Serious Charges Against New Haven
 Edward s. Rosenbluth, son of Solomon Rosenbluth of 101 William street, New Haven, is in trouble on account of alleged bigamy. He is travelling salesman for his father, who has corset factory at 302 Asylum street, Hartford. On March IA, 1888, he was married in New Britain by the Rev MT Stidham to Miss Addie E. Webb of 39 Grand street, Hartford, an employe in his fathers factory.
 He did not inform his parents, who live in New Haven, of the marriage for some time, but finally acceded to her demands that he should do so. His fathe~ openly manifested no anger, but his manner after wards was cold and unfriendly. Edwards treatment of his wife soon became distant, and he has lately absented himself from Hartford for considerable periods without saying anything to her about his where abouts.
 During one of his recent absences Mrs Rosenbluth was visited by Sidney E. Clarke, a lawyer, who told her that her husband had been previously married in Brooklyn, where his wife and child were now living. ..-. On Rosenbluth's return to Hartford he admitted to his wife that he had lived eight months with 8 woman in Brooklyn and that according to New York law, she was | his wife.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Denman Thompson.

Denman Thompson will be at the opera house next Wednesday evening in hls new play, Ihe Old Homestead, , of when the New York Telegram says: "A more charm ing play than The Old Homestead, pre- sented last night for the first time in this city by Mir Denman Thompson and his clever company, has not been seen In this city for long time There was delight ful flavor of rural life and honesty about it which filled the large audience ln the theater with pleasant feeling of Joy and good nature. MT Thompson is line actor, and ne has, moreover, an excellent com pany. Every member of it is fitted for the part filled, and the stage setting IS admir- able. The management of the theater has left nothing to be desired in this direction. Some of the sets, notably that in the first act and that in the third, are really works of art in stagecraft"
 Frank Mayo in "Nordeck."
 Sm all houses have of late been the rule at the opera house, not excepting the best companies. This was the case last night when Frank Mayo was seen for the first time in "Nordeck" This is undoubtedly Mayo's strongest piece, having been writ ten by himself with design to bring out the best qualities of an actor. The char acter which he fills is that of Waldemar Nordeck and his personation is beyond criticism. MT. Mayo has made rapid progress and has risen until he stands among the histrionic stars. He has drawn about him unusual good talent aud is always supported by good people. James H. Taylor as Witold and Miss Alice Lischbars personation of Princess Zuliski was all that could be desired and the rest of the company was good.

f=fs5 sFf r -sF ADDITIONAL WATER FACILITIES.
The Hop Brook Reservoir the Most De
 sirable to Acquire.


 sirabIe to Acquire.
 There will be special meeting of the board of water commissioners some time before the court of common council meets and it is probable that the board will make some recommendation concerning increas- ing the supply of city water. There were only two members at the special meeting at which L. C. White made the proposi- tion to sell the privilege of Lake Quassa- paug with the mill of the defunct South ford Paper company, and it was thought best to lay the matter over until the full board were present.
 There seems to be disposition on the part of those who have investigated the matter to look with favor upon the Hop brook scheme in preference to the Quas- sapaug privilege if the matter sifted down to choice between the two. "One great objection to the Qussapaug scheme ,' said a man who has been over the entire ground, ''is that it has almost no watershed. It's principal resource is from springs. the lake covering an area of 125 acres, while the watershed covers only about 25O acres. There is hardly summer that it is not drawn down as low as possible, it being body of water. Then these springs may emanate in Vermont, and when it is a wet season here it may be dry season there and the springs may give out. To reach the proposed Hsh brook reservoir it will necessitate the laying of 5a miles of pipe, while to reach Lake Quassapaug it will re- quire eight miles of pipe. Of the two Ash brook reservoir would be the most desirable. It would have an area of 100 acres, with watershed area of about two square miles, It would be fed from brooks and springs, and has numerous advantages over Lake Quassapaug.

FELL INTO GOOD HANDS.
Democrat Does the Town With Young

James A. Howarth.
 A good story is told in connection with the Republican club banquet at the ex- pense of some of the members of the local club. James A. Howarth, president of the Connecticut Republican league, who was one of the principal speakers at the ban quet, arrived in town early Thursday after noon. It was noised about that he had arrived and L. I. Munson and H. F. Baker, president of the local club, set out to hunt him up. It happens that MT Howarth is 8 commercial traveller, and has some demo- cratic friends in this city among them Louis Meyer, who ran for tax-collector against one of his own countrymen whom the republicans had put up to catch the Ger man vote and bobbed up serenely with 8 majority of 73O. Howarth dropped in to see his popular democratic friend, who, upon learning that he was to remain in the city over night, set about to entertain and keep him out of the hands of republican pharisees. While Meyer and Howarth were doing the town, visiting the factories, etc., Munson and Baker were hunting about town for the young republican, and several times nosed them as they swept around 8 corner. Once Meyer barely escaped having his commercial friend torn from him but he cleverly avoided his pursuers, and after he had done just what the republicans were aching to do he bade his companion good evening.
