Judge Cowell Receives the Guests of
 Chief EGan.
 Samuel McMullen arrived here from New Haven yesterday and the change of climate helped out hy Brass City's fire water induced him to seek the shelter of the police station. He was told by Judge Cowell to skip the town or he would be again arrested.
 Cornelius Cashman, a Eayseed from Kensington, who claimed to be brake man, but could better be used as d head light, his fiery red head being almost. as bright as an electric light, was in the box this morning. He almost scared the life out of the policeman who ar rested him by trying to jump on a mov- heath the wheels. He was also told to skip the town.
 Matt Cavanaugh, who has figured be- fore the court many times, Was once more victim this morning. Officer Brickel who arrested him had d rough and tumble fight before he took hum to the station, In court this morning Matt strongly objected to the record that was read out against him. but it was of no avail. He was fined s and costs for drunkenness, and SEQ and costs for re- sistance.
 Edward Doolan went to his home on Scovill street for the first time in three
 
 months, last night, and when ordered to leave he refused. Officer Brickel was called, who tried to induce him to go. He resisted strongly and tore the but tons from the officers coat. Attorney Root appeared for him. Judge Cowel imposed fine of S1 and costs for drunk ness and S5 for resistance.
 Henry Lynch was changed with breach of the peace for striking James Mulli- gan. It seems that Mulligan lives in the same house with Lynch and the latter left the water running all night, thereby wetting the tenement of the former be- low. Mulligan obtained a key from his landlady and opened the kitchen door of Lynch's apartment to find out the cause of the water running, Later in the morning both parties met on the street and few words being passed Lynch struck Mulligan. The latter denied in toto the whole story. Judge Cowell suspended judgment.

An hour after the accident the horribly mangled remains of John Higgins, brakeman, were found under the wreck. He was 2S years of age and lived in Great Barring ton. The responsibility for the accident has not yet been placed. The loss will be heavy,

TO RE COMPLETED NEWT WEEK.
The Annual school Enumerat ion
 We'll Under Way.

The annual school enumeration in this state will be completed next week, The law relating to the subject was changed by the legislature of 1889. and the first census of children of school age under the enactment was taken last October. Prior to that time it had been taken on the first of January in each year.
 The January census for 1889 showed 151,243 children in the state entitled to public school money. The enumeration in October showed an increase of .99S in the number. The average annual in- crease for years has not exceeded 800.
 On this basis it is expected that the enumeration this month will show at least l6l ,000 children oC school age in the state. This census will constitute the basis on which the public funds for school purposes will be distributed for 1891. The school fund now amounts to $1 ,923, ,000.

 Wallace and Wallick, the Danbury diamond robbers who were recently sen fenced to long terms in .Wethersfield, are making the most of their confine- ment. They are good prisoners and have made little or no trouble. They were both taken to the prison from Bridgeport in hand-cuffs and leg irons, as they were considered slippery men, , They try yetto keep their personality a secret. but from letters they have writ ten the prison authorities believe that Wallace is from Boston. while Wallick comes from the vicinity of Chicago. While in jail they pretended to fear that their friends would learn of their dis grace, but they are now in communica- ton with relatives, and have been since their trial. It is believed that Lawyer Baldwin who defended them, was re- tained by friends of Wallace, if not by his parents. Both are believed. how ever to be professional rogues.

 ColonoI Doherty's Bad Break.
 Here are some notes on Waterbury politics from New Haven News core spondent
 Postmaster Doherty told the senate. rial convention that Mir Elton had told the committee that he would be pleased to accept the republican nomination, and that Mir Elton would give $500 toward his own election. Mir Elton is rich. His opponent. Mir Twitchell, is poor. Mir Elton is the head of a power full corporation. MT Twitchell is 6 man of the people, and the people will elect him.
 The talk about knifng Tomlinson is all bosh. Colonel Lee is good fellow, a popular military officer, but beyond that he isn't of any use to Waterbury.
 Senator Platt and his son, James, were in town during the week, looking over the ground. They feel confident of victory. Last night Mir Platt, jr, and Colonel Doherty were together, and they paid visit to the court of common council, where the senator's son was in- troduced to our city fathers.
 Every democrat should make an effort to attend the democratic rally at City hall next Tuesday evening. The orator of the evening will be Hon T. c. Mon- aghan of Providence. who did yeoman's service in Connecticut two years ago. Hon Luzon B. Morris, the democratic candidate for governor, will also make . short address. There are great political issues in the next election and every democrat should hear them discussed.

ana Married the same


 NEW HAVEN, Oct 25.-Iu the superior court yesterday afternoon d divorce was granted to Maria Orisino of this city, from Andrew Orisino of Italy, for inf delity. They were married in Decem- Der, 1888.

The deserted wife got news of her husbands intidelity few months ago, and imme- diately instituted proceedings for a divorce. Meantime she had met another son of Italy, and they had be- come engaged. It was arranged that on the very day the divorce was granted they should be married The couple waited around the lobby uf the superior court all the morning and just as soon as the divorce was granted they started post haste to a lawyers office and in fifteen minutes were married. The name of the bridegroom in the marriage license read Pasquale Vota.

As show" town Waterbury has always ranked high, but after last night seats was the rule at the opera house although the most perfect opera ever produced upon the local boards was the attraction. Manager Jacques was under a great expense in bringing the Bosto- nians here and it is safe to say that he did not realize heavily from his invest ment. Can it be possible that the erst- while cultured taste of the Brass City is running to dime novel shows It cer- tainly seems so.

The boy begged first to be all lowed to go to his room. Permission was granted, and the child went up stairs to his own room, and closed the door hehind him. The mother fol lowed and listened outside. The boy went to the side of the bed, knelt down, and this was his prayer: Dear Lord. if you love little boys and want to help one out. now is your time" His prayer was answered.

It made the circuit un- wieldy and did not strengthen the league. No city will be admitted in Waterbury's place. The league will be composed of six cities, as last year.

cost
DO not forget that $1,000 90 worth of
goods are being sacrificed at the A llance
store.
This week $4,000 worth of clothing

Now is the time to paint your houses
and fences. You can get the finest mixed

Special inducements are offered to

We will sell them at less than cost al the
Alliance store.
All persons indebted to the Farmers
Alliance Exchange are requested to come
forward ut once and settle. The collec-
tion of all accounts will lie vigorously
pressed.
1t Is the most natural thing in the
world for merchants who have goods TO
sell at profit, to attempt to deceive the
people by telling them that the goods
now being sold at the Farmers Alliance
Exchange at Wholesale and factory cost
prices aie as high as the goods they are
selling for profit but it does not woi k.
The largest bills we sell are sold to mer-
chants, who claim to be judges of goods

they see it, and so they do, for they snap
up the bargains at the Alliance storr
right along.

We are indebted to one who attended
for the following:
The closing exercises of Grange Hall
school, May 9th, 1890, were something
uncommon in that line.
In the contest for gold medal i'll elo-
cution each pupil showed the patient
training of their skillful teacher, Miss
Green. The medal was awarded to MIR.
Floyd Williams, whose rendering of Gun
Gle Daniels Apparition," was excellent.
Miss Beachams recitation also deserves
special mention.
: The music was the sweetest. Several
difficult pieces were performed by Miss
Mary Smith, who received gold medal
for excellence in that department.
Miss Lou Decell played "The Old Oak
Ell Bucket-Variations," cffcctually and
gracefully.
Much could be said complimentary to
the praiseworthy teachers, but we simply
say it was good from little Miss Beach
ans Dead Dolly" to Prof. Girault's adj
dress.
May Grange Hall school long prosper
aud give many such entertainments the
wish of the large crowd that attended
this one.

fad that the Sheriff is charged with this
amount upon the county auditors book,
and that be has obtained from the conn
ty auditor receipt warrant 10 cover that
amount, less his commission, and that
he has obtained from the Treasurer the
Treasurer's receipt warrant to cover that
amount. In other words, the county
auditors books show that the Sheriff has
accounted for SIS, 055,79, which is the
amount with which he il charged on nc.
count of the real and personal property.
We find that he is charged with 2105
polls and that he has collected = poll
from POLO persons, which has been turn
ed over to the Treasurer, less his com
mission, leaving 95 from whom he has not
collected. The Board of Supervisors has
allowed him credit for them, being erro-
neous assessments.
Aside from this. we find that the Sher-
if has turned over to the different JUS
tees of the peace 247 polls for collection,
which clearly shows that the assessor Of
the county has failed to list all parties in
the county who are liable to poll tax.
We found from the auditors books that
the Treasurer on March 18th last, had
TO the credit of county fund g., 055, 80,
and to the credit of school fund S2,9l3 80.
How much of this he has paid out since,
we do not know. We find the various
amounts which by law should pass into
his hands, properly charged by the coun-
ty auditor, and duly receipted by Treas
urer to county auditor.
We find from the records that the ac-
counts of the Sheriff and Treasurer for
this fiscal year are correct.
Having no further business before us,
we now respectfully ask your Honor to
be finally discharged.
