LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE,.
As to the Qualifications of Detective
Charles e. Egan.
E6itO,. Of tho T)ENToGp

As to the Qualifications of Detective
Charles e. Egan.
Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
In its last issue the Sunday Herald
criticises the police commissioners for
appointing Charles E. Egan detective.
Why it claims that Mr. Egan has no
qualifications for the place, 1 am at a
loss to understand. Is it because he has
only Eeen on the regular force some
three months? If such be the idea, it is
a false one. In the first place man
may be member of the regulars for
twenty years or more and at the end of
that time have not the same qualifica-
tions for the position that youth of II
years may have. I would like to ask
the question, if it is long service on the
regular force that qualities men for the
position of detective in such cities as
New York, Boston, Philadelphia and
Chicago? Not at all. 1t is other quail
fications which they possess, such as
cunning, silent tongue, shrewdness, a
deep thinker, man of the people and
last but not least, bravery. Now, all of
these qualifications Detective Egan
seven years of age he has
been thrown upon the world, mixing in
all classes and in all societies.
He is shrewd and as cunning as a fox,
silent tongued certainly, and his bravery
no person can question. Now, for mis-
past life as an officer of the state of Con-
| necticut. For two and one-half years
he was deputy sheriff of this county and
for three years town constable of this
town, and his education as an officer of
the law during that time, was more
beneficial to him in studying crime and
mankind than twenty years could have
been as a patrolman upon Waterbury 8
force. For the past three years he has
been both supernumerary and regular and
have no doubt that in the near future
the citizens of Waterbury will point
with pride to our detective. Give our
new appointee chance and then if he
is found wanting, talk.

because of any change of heart? No;
it is because she can't help herself. We
have no objection to the flag of Roman
ism floating, but if it floats let it wave
from the horns of the pope's bull"
Laughing heartily at the reverend gen.
tleman's little pleasantly about the
pope's bull broad smile must still con-
tinue on the features of the at
tentive reader. of the above lines
for he admits himself that the
Catholic church Tor Rome as he styles it)
is tolerant. Mind he does not deny that
the church is tolerant, but not because of
change of heart. 'No," he says, at is
because she cannot help herself" 1t is
something as if a lawyer after doing all
he could to convict an accused person of
crime should say, "well after all he did
not commit it, he is evil though, and the
reason he abstained from the guilty act
was becausehe feared to be arrested and
sent to prison." Now is there Jury on
the face of the earth that would bring in
a verdict of any sort of guilt against that
man? People do not judge motives but
actions. The Rev Holmes arrogates to
himself, however, a great power (and
here is just where the farsical part of
his discourse ends: can he read the
hearts and intentions of his fellow man?
God alone can do that, and it is highly
presumtious in any one to assert that
he possesses that God like prerogative.
Respectfully,
MICHAEL A. O'DoNOGHUE.

A Large Attendance at Company G's
Opening Last Evening.
The interior of the armory decorated
in every color, the pretty canvassers
and other attractions helped to make
the opening night of Co G's fair one of
the most successful ever given by this
famous military organization. Under
the direction of Decorator Bolger tie
place was made to look bright and
cheerful. In the center of the floor is
the band stand, where Bergens orches-
ira holds fort. Uffendale does the
prompting. On each side of the spacious
armory are placed the exhibits of the
Waterbury merchants. On the right as
you enter is the exhibit of Crane, the
photographer, next follow the pretty
displays of P. j. Bolan, Reid & Hughes,
j. B. Mullings and w. II. Hunt, in the
order named. Snow, the florist, Lake,
Strobel & Co, F. j. Rametti, A. F. Tay-
lor, L. II. Toucey and Paul Asheim
occupy the left side of the building with
fine exhibits. A phonograph is in the
north corner. The fair will continue
during the week and will undoubtedly
be a grand success.

GERMAN SINGERS IN SESSION.
MICHAEL A. O'DONOGHUl
Waterbury, Conn, Oct 27, 1891.

The Next Saengerfest Will be Held in
New Britain.
The annual convention of the state
Sengerbund was held in Hartford yes
terday afternoon. The meeting was of
special interest because of the complica-
ton arising from the dispute of the
award of last years prize. 1t will be
remembered that the Concordia society
of Bridgeport was awarded the first
prize in the second class last year under
protest from the Germania society of
the same city. The latter society
charged the Concordia with taking in
outsiders to sing at the festival, which
tire Concordia denied. The Judges
withheld the prize, referring the whole
matter to a convention of state dele.
gates, who at their meeting in Octobe r
1890, decided that the Concordia was not
entitled to the prize. This society then
instituted suit of replevin and seized
the prize, flag, which they still hold.
The matter came up before Judge Bill
of Bridgeport, who decided in favor OF
Concordia. Appeal was taken to the
superior court, but owing to the illness
of the judge the case has not yet been
decided. At the annual meeting of del
egates last fall, the Concordia offered to
hold the next saengerfest. But the de
lay in decision about the prize has in
censed the society to the point of throw
ing up its engagement and resignine
from the state bund. The state conven
ton yesterday unanimously accepted
the resignation. The Hermann Sohnt
Maennerchor of New Britain offered tc
hold the next saengerfest, which offel
was accepted.

ACCIDENT AND INCIDENT,

Travels of a Piece of Flannel in a
Youths Leg.
Late one evening in July George A.
Lane was coasting on his bicycle on the
Center street hill in Wallingford, and at
the foot of the hill collided with a horse
down and received injuries that dis
abled it for several weeks. Lane was
terribly shaken up and the end of the
wagon shaft entered his leg just above
the knee, making a frightful wound.
He was laid up for a month, but after
he was able to be around again dis
covered that there was a large swelling
on the back side of his leg near the
thigh. All efforts on the part of DR.
McGaugheY, the attending physician,
| to reduce the swelling were Intellectual.
A few days ago the abscess, as it proved
to be, burst and the next morning a
piece of blue flannel the size of the end
of the wagon shaft, was taken from the
opening in his leg. The flannel was
part of his bicycle breeches and was
| clean cut by the end of the shaft and
forced into the leg between the muscles
and out of sight. During his two
around the leg, distance of fully six
| teen inches and where it stopped caused
| the abscess. 1t was brought to the sur
face by using a solution of carbolic
acid with syringe. The case is a very
peculiar one and something never heard
of before in medical experience.
Four painters, who were on building
yesterday at the corner of State and
Norman streets, Bridgeport, narrowly
escaped being instantly killed by the
breaking of hook supporting the
staging on which the men were work
ing. They were precipitated to the
ground, a distance of twenty feet.
Oscar Bartram, one of the men, had his
spine injured and William Seniors
ankle was broken.
The South Meriden iron bridge, which
had been sold for old iron, fell yester-
day just as workmen began the work of
tearing it down. One Hungarian went
down with the bridge and was con-
siderably bruised. Teams will now
have to ford the river.
An unknown schooner was discovered
ashore on GARDENERS Island yesterday
Captain T. A. Scott imme diately went
to her assistance, but found the vessel
abandoned. She had a cargo of lime.
Her stern was burned away, so that the
name of the vessel could not be learned.
Everything movable had been washed
away, her deck was stripped and the
sails and strumps of masts were partly
burned. The fire was doubtless caused
by the water reaching the lime. The
schooner will be total wreck.

SUPREME COURT DECISION.

No Error in the Case of Ellen McElIigott
Against Randolph s. Cloves.
The supreme court has found no error
in the case of Ellen McElligott, admin
istrator, against Randolph & Cloves.
The decision was handed down yester-
day afternoon; reasons by Judge
Prentice. The case was suit for S., OOO
brought by the widow of Patrick Nc
Elligott, who was crushed to death by a
casting at the factory of Randolph &
Cloves over a year ago. The lower
court gave judgment for the plaintiff to
recover 81 900. The amount was not
deemed sufficient and Attorney O'Nei
for the plaintiff, took an appeal.

Five Killed Ry an Explosion,

GREAT FALLS, Mon, Oct 27.-Word
has reached here of the killing of several
sion of the Great Northern railroad by
Contractor O'Brien, who is doing work
20 miles west of here at the summit of
the Rockies. The men were ordered
to clear out a blast hole and while doing
the work an explosion occurred. Four
were killed and several badly injured,
one of whom may die. Soon after a
civil engineer named Jarrett was struck
by a flying rock and killed at the same
place
