A Nice Little Romance.

He was handsome, rosy.cheeked
old broker, says the Detroit Free
Press.
She applied for a position as type
writer.
And she was plump as a part
ridge and pretty as picture.
"Will you give me your name?"
he inquired kindly, after few pre-
liminary questions.
She blushed.
He was blind.
"I'd rather take yours, SIR" she
said, with q cute little smile.
And Cupid's a COW if she didn't
get it within year.

LAST MEETING OF The YEAR.

Many Matters Acted Upon BY the
Court of Common Council.
The first business to come before the
board of aldermen at last nights adj
journed meeting was the matter of
appropriations for 1892. The recon-
mendation of the board of finance was
adopted, and it was voted to lay an
eighteen mill tax.
The sum of $420 was appropriated to
pay claims against the city for injuries
received by falls.
Alderman Reilly introduced a vote
appropriating $4,000 for repairing the
approaches to the Baldwin street bridge.
Alderman Reilly made a strong argu-
ment in support of the measure.
Asked for his opinion of the matter
City Attorney Burpee said: No doubt
the expense ought to be borne by the
Meriden railroad. The town widened
the bridge, the railroad raised it and the
railroad commissioners were called out
and approved what the railroad COM
pany had done. Why they did so is a
mystery to me. That prevents the city
from proceeding against the railroad.
1t is public highway, and if any acct
dents occur the city is liable. The city
ought to raise it and then sue the town,
who would bring in the railroad COM
pany.
The matter was referred to the road
board.
A vote passed by the lower board,
appropriating 100000 for carrying
was referred to the road board, as was
a vote introduced by Alderman Thomp
son appropriating 81 900 for fixing Dub
lin street, near the Meriden railroad
bridge.
The report of the tax revision com
mittee, which came from the lower
board with it's approval, was discussed
at great length. Alderman Webster
declared that the whole Investigation
was illegal, while City Attorney Burpet
declared that it was not. Alderman
Reilly argued for the adoption of the
report and the aldermen finally voted tt
concur with the lower board.
1t was voted to appropriate $500 t.
begin the work of extending Liberty
street.
Votes of thanks to the mayor and city
clerk were passed, after which thu
meeting adjourned.
In the lower board the first business
was the reading of the report of the ta1
revision committee. The report was &C
copied and the recommendation
adopted without debate.
Councilman Gregory introduced thu
following:
| Voted, that the common council ap
propriate $500 for the purpose of taking
possession of the Liberty street extern
sion and that the board of finance b.
authorized to borrow the same.
Councilman Gregory in answer tt
questions said that he wished the roaC
board had money enough to throw
down the fences and tear up the track
of the railroad company and that thel
some Roadway would be made.
Thomas Kelly addressed the board OF
this subject in the interest of the peopl
in Brooklyn. The vote was passed, blu
afterwards came back from the alder
men in amended shape and was con
Cured in.
The board concurred in all othe
matters passed by the upper board.
Votes eulogistic of President Kellogg
and Clerk Barnes were passed, afte
which the council of 1891 was declares
a thing of the past.

Attorney Kellogg added two additional
counts to the original complaint signed
by City Attorney Burpee The defense
stated that they would enter demurrer
to the original count. They asked that
the case go over to Tuesday, January 12,
| which was granted.
Tee attorneys for the defense after
wards stated that they would withdraw
the demurrer. Prosecuting Attorney
Kellogg said he would then withdraw
the first count and when the case came
up try Kelly on the other two counts
Attorneys Baldwin and Cole then set up
the claim that the case was virtually
thrown out by Mr. Kellogg's withdraw

Mora is Waterbury favorite and, as
was to be expected, the opera house was
crowded last night at the opening per-
Torrance. "Fogg's Ferry" is very in
teresting play and as interpreted by
Mora, Fred Williams and an excellent
company, gave the very best of salts
faction. The scenery and settings
added greatly to the general effect. To-
night "Pretty Poll" will be the attrac-
ton, and the house should be filled.

The Exposition.

The Exposition is a thing
OF the past. 1t will go into
history. THAT history will
depend in a great degree up
on what. is written and said
of it now.
1t has cost a vast amount
of money, incalculable brain
work and a strain upon those
intimately ociated with the
Exposition.
That mistakes have been
made, which experience would
exclude from future manage
ment by thessame parties, is
a fact that the managers of
the exposition would be the
first to admit and foremost
to correct in future occasions
of the kind. No one is infal-
lible. 1t is only by a knowl-
edge of the fact that we are
best calculated to conform
to the demands of the pres
ent or future.
We think we reflect the sem
timents of this community
and that portion tfOW State
