AMUSEM
'sThe Old Homestead."

Denman Thompson, who has not been seen in this city for number of years, will on Tuesday evening present 'The Old Homestead," at the opera house, with his entire original company, and there is no doubt he will be greeted by a large audience.
 ''The Dark Secret"
 "A Dark Secret" will be presented at the opera house this evening, and to- morrow afternoon and evening. The Cincinnati Commercial says of the play: The first act, with its fountain of real water, the Henley regatta and the old church at Henley, were realistic to a marked degree, and the ''Dark Secret quartette in sweet songs, added much to the entertainment. The scene in the fourth act, where the heroine is thrown from the wharf by the villain, only to be rescued after sinking for the third time, by the hero, forms a stirring climax, and the audience shouted their approval until the very wet heroine and equally moist hero bowed their acknowledge ments before the curtain.

MILITARY MATTERS.
Inspection and Military Instruction BN
 Lieutenant Bowen.

Inspection and Military Instruction By
 Lieutenant Bowen.
 During the present drill season Lieu tenant Bowen, U. $. A, on duty on the staff of the governor of the state, will resume inspection and military instruc- tion of the armed forces of the common wealth. He will arrange for evening meetings with the officers and non- commissioned officers of the brigade for the purpose of giving military lectures or otherwise imparting instruction in drill, discipline and administration. He will also visit as often as possible the several organizations upon their drill nights, and report to the com mander-in-chief the condition, attend ance, interest in and appreciation of the duty of the occasion by officers and en- listed men, and the apparent capacity of officers and non-commissioned off cers for the work they are appointed to pt- form, especially will he observe and report upon the instruction in the per formance of guard duty, and the ob- servance of military courtesy by both officers and enlisted men, and to that end may cause guard duty to be the order of the evening with any command he may be visiting.
 An amended manual of guard duty will be issued from the office of the adjutant-general as soon as received from the printers, and will be authority until further orders. Captains of com panies will be supplied with copies suffi- cient to supply officers and non-com- missioned officers of their command. These books will be placed against their property account and must be accounted for as other books issued by the state are. The copies of "Kennon's Manual" now in their possession may be dropped as "worn out in service"

Card to the Puhlic.

In letter written some time ago to the DEMOCRAT respecting the various points from which Gin my estimation) a plentiful supply of water might be ob- tained for our city, made this remark: ''Look out for the nigger in the fence." Sure enough, he at last has turned up and materiallzed in full, as any one can easily see by looking over the contents of the American of Wednesday evening. In giving the comparative reports the American says that the purchasing of the hotels at Quassapaug lake and also rights on eight mile brook will cost, in cluding the right of way, buildings etc, about S136 700. As this would seem to me to be large sum to pay for two small hotels, Gf so you please to call them) the inference one is led to draw is, that we have to purchase the Southford mill claim, in order to satisfy certain few who have never failed to put in an ob- jection to the obtaining our supply from the east. And what makes this affair to me somewhat ridiculous is, that after having employed competent engineer at an expense of several thousand dol lars, there should turn up among us, several who appear to have been over looked by the community and who ap- pear to know all about it. What pity we did not know this before, as we LllSHG nave SdNSu all CL1lS SA pSuSSs HIS englneer, MT Herring, gave it as his opinion that the Mad river and it's sources was the only spot to draw upon to get good water and plenty of it. Now then, laying all joking aside, it is about time for the public to wake up to this subject. There seems to be several parties who would be likely to gain something by the introduction of the
 water supply from the west, and these are the ones to keep your eyes upon. Then again the question arises, why
 this delay about commencing the reser- voir at the east? I believe it was ordered some time since. A great deal of credit is due our common council for
 their persistency in adhering to said vote, but it is time to make a move, at
 least the people so think. So stick to it,
 gentlemen, and you are bound to win.
 Let it not be said that by your apathy
 the cause you are supposed to be work
 ing for was lost. Suppose it does cost a
 little more (which I doubt very much) l you are expected to vote for the best
 water and largest supply that can be ob-
 tained, and this can be had only l from the Mad river.

FRANCHISE RESTRICTIONS.
Press Opinion in Regard to the Action
 of waterbury's Council.

o1 "AteTDurys NOuhCAAs
 Speaking of the petition of the Wa terbury Horse Railroad Go for permis- sion to use electricity as a motive power, and the conditions imposed by the lower board of the common council, the Meriden Journal says: One clause, we must all approve of-that the com pany ought to compensate the city in the near future for the valuable fran chise it seeks. This could be done either by the payment of a lump sum or by paying each year percentage of the gross or net receipts. In Waterbury as in many other places there is growing sentiment that the city should control and operate the street cars, even as it does the water works. This feeling may have had something to do with the action of the councilmen. One thing can be said with certainty, so far as Meriden is coh- cerned, which is if our present court of common council had the granting of a franchise similar to that held by the Meriden street railroad company there would be a number of restrictions, con- ditions, provisions and penalties at tached to it that do not now exist, and that would tend to benefit the public and protect the community in all it's rights.

MORE ABOUT THE WATER SUPPLY.
No Legal Obstacle in the Way of Assess
 ing Benefits and Damages.

No Legal Obstacle in the Way of Assess
 ing Benefits and Damages.
 The lawyer quoted in these columns yesterday as to the city's power to con- demn lands for public use adds, con- cerning the action of the common coun- Gil in regard to obtaining a new water supply: - ,, ,. ,
 pointing committees in an informal manner who had no power to summon witnesses or to appraise the land or the value of the use of the water. Indeed, they had no power except to report what M. L. Sperry chose to say as secretary of the Mad River Water Power com pany. Let the common council con- demn the land and the water fran chises both at the east and the west, then refer the matter of benefits and damages to the board of compensation of the city, where there can be a legal and formal hearing, and where the owners of the different interests will be obliged to come and tell their story if they want their pay, and where the city can meet them on equal ground.
 Then let the board of compensation re- port what they ascertain the damages to
 be, both at the east and west. The court of common council will then have something definite and palpable before
 them. They can adopt the report from
 the east or west or can refuse to adopt
 either. It seems to me that this should be done under any circumstances, for al | no distant day we have got to have botf sources and the sooner we get at the | data for determining the cost the better
 we can cope with the difficulties. This | will harm nobody and will be very little expense"

 NAUGATUCK, Nov 1S.-Quite a num- Der of witnesses and attorneys went from here yesterday to New Haven to attend court in the cases of the town agains Riley for tearing down a fence at the old burying ground while MT Bilson was first selectman; the state against Fred Lattine, who appealed his case for resisting an officer, Pierce Freeman; the Butler case against Leary, brought some four years since for assault on the former s wife. All three cases were nolled; leaving the state to pay the costs.
 Franc Bolin and Mrs Emma Anderson were married at the brides residence on Hillside avenue last evening, by the Swedish minister, Rev Mir Beck. They will occupy a new house built by them for the occasion.
 We were informed at the box office last night that over eight hundred tickets had been sold during the even- ing for the fair of St Francis church, also that the Germania Mannerchor Singing society would be the attraction there this evening. There was such a large attendance at the flower show that it was decided to continue 1t this afternoon and evening. There was also ! a ROOu dItSLudLlCS db GuS cAGSI and supper of the Epworth league. Oul citizens crave this season for amuse ments. When a show like Uncle Hiram draws over $400 here, Denmar Thompson should draw $700. At any rate our managers might put in ont good show, to see how it would take.
 Mrs Twitchell and Miss Wood, who were injured by being thrown from { carriage during runaway yesterday at Waterbury, are said to be consider ably bruised, but will be all right in { few days.
 It was thought at New Haven las night that Michael Callahan, who has been suffering from smallpox at Spring dale farm, would not live through to day. His wife died some time since leaving him with eight children, only two of them being old enough to sup port themselves.

Henry Again Ignored.

The state board of eqallzation met in the capitol Wednesday morning and ex- amined the railroad returns for the year. Comptroller Staub again re, fused to recognize Treasurer Henry in that connection, and Mir Sanger acted as treasurer. It is claimed that the rail. roads made only small returns, and that when suits are brought against the roads they will fight the cases on the ground that the board of equalization was illegally constituted. If that is done it will open all the questions re. garding the contested election of 1890 which the courts failed to settle.

To Change the Liquor Laws.

A movement is on foot in the eastern part of the state to secure a monster petition to be presented to the general assembly, asking that the liquor laws be changed so that no person or firm can sell liquors in the same building where groceries are sold. Two years ago such petition, headed by Bishop Williams, was presented to the general assembly, but it did not pass. The friends of the bill expect to get help from the demo- cratic members of the legislature.
