WORLD OF SPORTS.

Thursday Pfeffer, Burns, Bassett, Seery and OBrien passed the century line in batting.
 Roger Connor recovered from the innoc- uous desuetude into which he relapsed a month ago, and yesterday made four hits, including two three baggers and a double off the pretzel delivery of Getzein. The whole team only made six hits.
 Esterbrook has been signed by Louisville to play first base. He signalized his first appearance with the team Thursday by making hit at critical moment bringing in the only and winning run. Hecker, once the king of pitchers, will probably be re- leased by Louisville.
 A paragraph is going rounds to the effect that when several players learned that it was proposed to invite Ewing to go on the Australian trip they immediately notified the management that if Ewing went they could be counted out. Hence Ewing has not been invited.
 In the long distance throwing match at Cincinnati, Wednesday, for the prize money of $100 offered by the Cincinnati club and the Enquirer diamond locket, Harry Vaughn's record was broken by Stovey of the Athletics. He threw the ball 369 feet and inches. Tebeau tried to reach it but only reached 353 feet. It is expected that Ned Williamson of the Chicagos will make an effort to beat Vaughn's record.

 Firing Husband.
 Yesterday afternoon Mrs John J. Adams wife of chief of police Adams of Winsted, accompanied by John Simonds a personal friend of the chiefs, came to this city on the 2:42 train and made thorough search for the willy chief. who had eloped with Mss Jennie Dutton of that place. After consultation with Chief Egan both left for Bristol where they discovered Adams in company with the young lady. He told them that he was making preparations to return home and the three left for this city arriving here at 5:30, MT Adam E did not seem to mind the report in the evening papers about the elopement and refused to talk about the matter. He left for Winsted accompanied by his wife and MT Simonds on the 7:10 train. It is under stood that the difficulty between them will be settled and that Mrs Adams will take no action for divorce. The elopement has shocked the good people of thes quiet town of Winsted and it said that a new chief over the police department will soor be appointed.

NAUsArUcK BANNER RAISING.
Two Noted Speakers in the Interest of Democracy.

Two Noted Speakers in the Interest Of
 Democracy.
 Naugatuck was alive last night, the oc- casion being the democratic banner raising and rally at the Gem opera house. Dr Futile presided, and after some excellent singing by the glee club, introduced the Hon James M Breck of Philadelphia and the Hon D. H. Jamison of Maryland as the speakers of the evening. MT Breck spoke first and briefly reviewed the good work and the hard battle Connecticut has been fighting for the democracy. He paid tribute to her noble son William Eaton. He also reviewA the corrupt administra- ton of the republicans who had charge of the government for twenty four years. | He said People became so alarmed at such a condition of affairs that they shrank back in horror, The republicans said 1t was an impossibilitv to have an honest government, but when Grover Cleveland and that whole-souled old democrat, Thomas A. Hendricks, took the chair, they 1 took it with a resolve to have an honest government as far as it lay in their power, and like the Romans of old have carried that determination and succeeded. MT Hendricks died, but bis spirit still hoverS over the democracy. Grover Cleveland has done a great deal for this country and will do more should he Oc 1C1C III k'o"CA. oOo IAAO way oS spent during republican rule, look at Alaska. She was purchased under John sons administration. A large sum of money was paid for that useless strip of land that will never be of any benefit. Look at the grants of land made by them to railroad corporations which Grover Cleveland is returning to the people as fast as it is possible, who has already re- deemed 85 millions of acres. The speaker also reviewed the great work done during MT Cleveland's time, particularly his interest ill the fishery questions, and the base stories that the republicans are circulating that Mir Cleve- land was unfriendly to the union soldiers. More pension claims have been granted during Clevelands administrations than during, the previous administration, Over 356, ,O00 pension have been granted, of which 156, ,0OO were oringinal 191 ,000 increase and and 9 000 misillaneous. He concluded his remarks by a review of the Mills bill and the bugaboO, put forth by the repub- licans that it was free trade. when during | the administration of several republican presidents recommendations were made for the reduction of the tariff, which was all the democrats were looking for now.
 1 Mir Jamison followed by reviewing the work of all the parties and administrations since Lincoln and the tariff laws from 1861, the work done since then and the prosperity that is soon to flourish with a l democratic administration.

OUR MISERABLE STREETS.
The Roads About the City in a Terrible
 Condition.

Condition.
 Complaint after complaint has been sent into the DEMOCRAT office in regard to the condition of some of our streets, and in direct reproach to the methods of the street inspector. One of our prominent business men invited a representative of this paper to ride over some of the streets within the center this morning, and the condition as told in the complaints has not been ex aggerated. The stretch of street between the railroad crossing and the Brooklyn bridge is in terrible state. It is shame that in a city as large as Waterbury the taxpayers are com pelled to plead for some redress from persons who are supported by them. Streets cannot be kept in condition by oc- cupying an office in the City hall and dis putting the right or wrong of the com plaints. Work is what is wanted and demanded by the taxpayers. The street between the railroad crossing and Brooklyn bridge is disgrace to any city. It is not at all required to have holes a foot or more deep. A general demand should be made from districts neglected, for at least the notice of those who are in authorits in the repairing of the streets.

Who is He 2

York Evening Post: One of the republican papers is clamoring to know any one who voted for Blaine in 1884 who will vote fol Cleveland in 1888. I can furnish, if de- sired the name of one of the strongest re publican clergyman in this state, who voted republican at every election from 1856 to 1884 Gncluding the latter), but who will vote for Cleveland thisy ear, primarily on account of the strong protective de clarations of the Chicago platform. His son, who casts his first vote this fall, will vote on the same side.

LABoR,s FEMALE CHAMPION.
An Interesting Address by Mrs l.. M.
 Barry Last Night.

A
 Barry Last Night.
 Last evening the rink was crowded with large and appreciative audience to listen to Mrs l.. NJ. Barry deliver her lecture on labor organization and it's benefits. Mrs Barry was introduced by w. F. Dillon and in clear tone of voice reviewed the work done by labor organizations during the last few years and the steady growth they have met with. Mrs Barry evidently has not much faith in the old parties and be- heves that the laborers and working people can only obtain their rights by organizing party of their own. She dwelt at large upon the way the working people are treated and said that their only hope to obtain their rights was to organize. Among those who occupied seats on the stage were several young women and all agreed that Mrs Barry possesses extraordi- nary powers both as a speaker and cham pion of labor. This evening she will ad dress women only, taking for her subject: "Why Women Should Organize"

has been nominated for President. Her platform demands equal rights for Women, Education and Accomplishment being a potent factor. She demands as a starter that the men purchase for their wives an elegant Shoninger Piano or Organ. She believes in freer trade, and thinks they ought to buy low. Knowing the extra ad vantages Shoninger & Co possess in their line of goods she does not hesitate to give them the preference over all competitors. Buy a Piano for what it is worth is her motto. At the same time a company with business stability is preferred over those who shin along like a reed shaken before the wind and can in no wise be responsi- bic for what they sell, but instead spend what little money they have purchasing some of Shoninger's stock sold long years ago, and their time running down their neighbours goods, thereby proving Shon- inger's popularity. She says hard work will make followers of cold water, Tippecanoe- and-Tyler-too, and even the blood-red ban danna prove an omen of success.

MOTHER AND STEPSON.
Testify Against Each other I'm the
Justices Court.


A case came up yesterday in Justice
Kings court which called out good
deal of testimony of disagreeable sort
Alva DeVere is the name of young
lad about IA years of age, who was ar
rested on the charge of vagrancy. The
action was brought about by his STEP
mother, Mr.. r. II. De We're, pleasant
looking middle-aged widow lady. Ac.
cording to her testimony, she has always
treated Alva as she would her own son,
fed him, clothed him, and taken pains
that he should be kept at school. The
boy, however, had natural inclination
toward bad company and irregular habits.
He staid out nights, chiefly, it was
averred in the society of bricklayer
by the name of Reilly. Believing that
the boys morals were being badly cor
rupted, she had the charge of vagrancy
preferred against him, in order to have
him placed in charge of the Boys and
Girls Aid Society of San Francisco. The
boys testimony was very different from
that of Mrs. De We're. He disclosed that
she treated him shamefully, and that her
conduct was disgracefully immoral. The
case was argued and taken under ad.
visement. A decision will be rendered
to-day.
