DECIDED AT LAST.
Waterbury to Have a Preston Aerial
 Hook and Ladder Truck.


 Hook and Ladder Truck.
 At the adjourned meeting of the fire commissioners last evening the repre- sentatives of the several truck companies were present in the interest of their machines. L. P. Dodge, representing the Warwick truck was the first to be given hearing, at which he exhibited model of the machine. He was followed by J. J. Finnerty, representing the 'Preston truck, who explained the work ings of the model which he exhibited. Mir Haywood of the Babcock truck com pany did not exhibit model as his ma chine had been thoroughly examined by the board.
 Mayor Boughton had written to the chief engineers of a number of cities regarding the trucks in use by their de partments. The answers to the mayors letters were read by the clerk and nearly all recommended the Babcock and Pres ton machines.
 Chief Snagg said that no truck weigh ing over 6,000 pounds would be suitable for Waterbury. The Preston was the strongest machine.
 Commissioner Vail said the Babcock pleased him, but it was too heavy. The Warwick was lighter and dispensed with the use of a tillerman. Commissioner Connolly thought the Warwick a good truck but favored the Preston for it's sim plicity. Commissioner Roberts favored the Warwick. The sealed bids were then opened and were as follows: Warwick truck e5 foot, weight 6,5OO:pounds loaded on the cars but not shipped, $3,OOO. A 75 foot Warwick weighing 5,75O pounds would cost S2, 800. A 70 foot Babcock weighing 6,30O pounds loaded on cars ready for shipment S3,0O0. The Preston -s, l. e., n r0 ich ing 5000 delivered in Waterbury was S3 1000. MT Kelly moved that Preston truck be purchased and the motion was seconded by Commissioner Connolly. The vote was tie and the mayor voted yes and the Preston came out the victor. The machine is made of the best turned steel and Oregon pine. There is platform on each side for the men of the company and railing for them to hang to. The machine is oper- ated by two men and by an ingenious ad- justment of screws the cranks can be ap- piled at various points wherever most convenient. This is the only truck built in which the tiller turns in the same di- rection as the wheels. The brakes are the same as used on a locomotive and act in- stantly. The aerial ladder is in two sec tions. While the commissioners were in Chicago trained crew raised the ladder in twenty seconds. Both sections of the | ladder are strengthened by steel trusses which also form convenient railings for use in ascending and descending. The weight is equally distributed between the forward and rear wheels. MT Fin nerty had never heard of one of their trucks overturning. The distance from but to but is twenty feet. The extreme length the truck is forty-fve feet. This machine can easily be drawn by two horses. The turn table can be used at any angle and in any position.

The Woman Hater.


 A hearty reception was given to 'sThe Woman Hater," by MT David l.. Lloyd, which has taken the place of the Church Warden" at Terry's Theatre. MT Lloyds work has the merit of improving as it proceeds. The fun of 'The Woman Hater" proceeds crescendo instead of diminuendo, ,andthe public in consequence leave the house with the merriest laugh ter caused in intervening still running in their ears.-London Standard.

AGED 1e. AND A BURGLAR.

Two Youths Crack Two Stores in
 One Night and Are Captured With
 Their Booty.
 Shortly before o'clock this morning Officers Blakeley and Brickel, who were on duty on Baldwin street, came upon two young men acting ln a SuSpl- cious manner in the rear of John Nolan's saloon, corner of Baldwin and Bridge streets They arrested the fellows and found the transom of the rear door to the saloon broken open, barrel under the window and short handled hoe ex- plaining how the work had been done. pursued the trail which led to barn on the other side of the street. Here they found two wet overcoats the pockets of which were filled with cigars. In the hay loft five gallon keg of brandy bearing the name of P. Hackett was found. The boys were taken to the station house where they were reg istered as Dennis Shea and John Elan agan. Upon investigation it was found that Hackett's saloon at 321 East Main street had been forcibly entered through side window. In court this morning both prisoners pleaded not guilty. to charges of burglary, attempt at burglary and theft. Flanagan, who is only 16 years or age, udS d } ollIiS NI1o "Aoii Iio was forced to marry about two weeks ago. Shea is F years old. The former took the stand in his own defense but only made matters worse fer himself. Shea had nothing to say. Judge Cowell found both guilty and imposed sentence of 50 days in jail for theft. Upon the charges of burglary and attempt at burglary both were bound over to the superior court under bonds of $500 and S1OO respec- lively.
 William and Margaret Dean, pair of bohemians who have been known to the Waterbury police for fourteen years, were arrested last night for trying to de populate the Italian lodging house con- ducted by James Orlando in Steels block on South Main street. Both were intox- icated and made trouble for the police. In court this morning William modestly admitted that in company with one armed man he had drank three gallons of beer All he wanted was one more chance to get to Hartford where his son lived. The woman mingled her prayers with his and Judge Cowell in order to save the county expense told the pair to meander hence and they lost no time ill doing so.

A Queer Bridegroom.

A funny story comes from the village of Crumpton, where the gossips are dis cussing the marriage of Miss Hattie Glanding, the principal of the school, and Dr. c. T. Cahoon, the village physi- clan and druggist. When the ministerial blessing had been given and the bene- diction pronounced, the happy pair step ped into the finest rig the town could afford and drove to Ralph's wharf, twelve miles away, to take the steaper Emma A. Ford for a wedding trip to this city and Washington. When the steamer was reached, however, the bridegroom concluded that he could not desert bis practice and his drug store, even for the pleasure of bridal tour, so placing his bride on the steamer, with many en- phatic injunctions to the officers to look after her comfort, he slowly and sorrow fully wepdsd his way home, while the lonely bride came on to Baltimore. Mrs. Cahoon visited friends here and in Washington, and enjoyed her lonely wedding tour as best sRe could. After three days absence she returned. and yesterday morning was met by her hxs- band at tho wharf. The little house was ready for her, and the happy pair have gone to housekeeping.-Baldmor Cor.

MATTERS EDUCATIONAL.

A Petition for Better School Accom-
 modations in Brooklyn.
 At the meeting of the board of educa- tion last night the following petition containing 155 signatures was received:
 We the undersigned legal voters of the Centre school district, desiring to obtain better school accommodations for the children who attend the Bank street school, the building now in use being incapable of seating the present attend ance, and unfit in respect to light and ventilation for school purposes, res pectfully request you to call in accordance with the law. a meeting of all the legal voters of the district, to provide for the erection as soon as possible of a new and more. e..commodious building on the grounds appertaining to said school.
 The defective ventilation of the school rooms of the city was discussed and the following resolution was adopted:
 ''Voted, that the teachers be directed to open the windows of their school rooms at the top and bottom at the close of each school day for at least an hour to secure proper ventilation"
 The principal business of the meeting was discussion of the best method of heating and ventilating the new school building on Clay street.
 The district committee will meet this evening.

A Notable Tree.

A remarkable and notable tree in Chicopee has lately fallen beneath the blows of the woodman's ax. 1t stood on the old Parson McKinstry place, at the upper end of the street, the present owner of the place being Mrs. Tait, of this city,. The tradition has always been that either MT. or Mrs. McKnstry set out this tree when they built their house, which was about the time Of Mir. Mo Kinstry's settlement there as the first pastor of Springfield, in 1752. But since the tree was cut down 1t is believed that it must have been very much older than the house, and it is thought that it was fully 200 years old. It was remark ably beautiful tree of the buttonwood variety, and the residents of Chicopee street are all cherishing as valuable keepsakes pieces of the wood of this famous tree. It had changed very little for the last seventy-fve years, having been "hollow" as long as present octo- genarians played under it, and hid them selves in it's protecting hollow. The cir conference of the tree where it was cut down was thirty feet, and sons and daughters of Chicopee will miss the familiar landmark Herald.
