NAuoATuck AND VICINITY.
DoInGs of . Day in the Valley Below This Citv.

NAUGATUCK, Oct 14.-Patrick Con- ran, John Breen, Joseph Klein, T. J. Garrison and William Kennedy, alter nate, were the delegates appointed to attend the fifth senatorial convention, to be held here next Monday.
 The annual ball of the Iron Moulders union takes place tonight.
 Masons will soon be laying brick on the fifth story of the store house exten- sion of the G. M. R. Shoe company. The addition is 50 by 100 feet, five stories high.
 Lucier's minstrels will be the attrac- tion here on October 24.
 We are informed that the receipts for the 1.-Two Johns" show were $416.05. As full set of reserved seat tickets for the house at the prices sold would bring less than $290, there must have been over 36O rush tickets sold. Morse played Jules Levy's opera company here once for about $400, but the prices were higher than on Wednesday night, when there must have been over nine hun dred in the audience.
 The advance agent of Blind Toms Concert company has arranged to play here next Tuesday evening. This is the same date as the Hungarian band con- l cert at the parish house. The Crysanthemum club met last night to arrange for a display and award prizes.
 In making out the town report the | $3 300 Mccarthy lot was charged to the new building of fire department, mak- ing it over S900 whereas the actual cost
 was $5, 5,653.4S, including wiring for cleo trlcs, being only S53. IS above the amount appropriated. The town lost $1 ,0O0 on
 the lot, which at the most was all that should have been charged to the fire de- partment. As the fire commissioners are the only elected officers in the town
 who work without compensation, it is no more than right that they should be credited for the good work done by | them.
 Every voter in town should see that his name is on the list to be made up by | the registrars next week.

COLUMBUS DAY A LEGAL HOLIDAY.
A Suggestion That There Be Genera
 Celebration in Waterbury.

A Suggestion That There Be a Genera
 Celebration in Waterbury.
 The Connecticut statutes provide that beside the stated days like New Years, Christmas, Thanksgiving, Decoration day, and Fourth of July, any other shall also be a legal holiday which is Zap pointed or recommended by the gov ernor of this state or president of the United States, as day of thanksgiving, fasting, or any religious observance" ." Que tion has arisen whether Columbus day, October 21, this year, is legal holiday.
 Eminent lawyers have looked into the matter critically and say there is no doubt that it is. Even if the governors proclamation did not exactly make it so the presidents calling on the people to meet in the churches, gives the day a religious observance" and so puts into effect the exact language of the law. The banks will, of course, be closed, and notes due on the 21st must be paid on the 20th. Debtors who think that therefore it would have been money in their pockets if Columbus had not dis covered America, take a narrow view ot a large question.
 It is suggested that stores generally be closed and the holiday be made general. The schools will have nc session and it will be day off for most people.
 Barcelona Council, K. of C., invites committees from other organizations tC meet at St Patrick's hall this evening tc consider the matter of a celebration or discovery day. Interest in such a cele, bration is increasing. The board of di. rectors of the four divisions of Hiber mans have also sent out an invitation tc all civic and military bodies to send g committee of five to St Patrick's hall next Tuesday evening at o'clock, for g | like purpose,

Didn't Know It Was Loaded.

THoMAsToN, Oct 14.-John Hotch- kiss, aged 25, stage driver, was shot in a barber shop here at 10 o'clock this morning. After being shaved Hotch- kiss tendered a bill m payment.
 Henry Miller, who waited upon him, opened the money drawer, and seeing a revolver in the drawer took it up, not knowing it was loaded, and in fun pointed it at Hotchklss. The weapon was discharged, the bullet lodging in Hotchkiss' right lung. He has had a number of hemorrhages and is in a critical condition. Miller was arrested.

CHARGES AGAINST THE SECOND. The Lunch Vender Incident Explained
 By Witness.

Charles Hunt, drum major of the Second regiment, said last night to New Haven reporter regarding the charges against the regiment: 'We left the boat at o'clock, marched up to Liberty street, and stood there near Broadway for three hours. A peddler of apple dumplings pushed his hand cart around the corner into the street. The Second had then stood there two hours and they were hungry. Some of the men pressed around the cart, and in the press to buy the dumplings the cart was upset. The vendor looked very sad a moment, but we made him very happy in a few moments. His stuff was worth altogether about 80 We collected s for him; I gave 30 cents myself, and he received the S5 with profuse thanks. He certainly was satisfied. Further, it is asserted that the Second crowded into bar room at 45 Liberty street. Some were in there. and drinking glass was accidentally broken. The proprietor smiled and said 'all right and that is all there is of a fact to the tale about breaking bottles and glasses and pictures"
 Lieutenant Francis J. Duffy of the signal corps said "I have been twenty two years in the Second regiment and I never saw the men act better than they did ln New York. l rode just behind Colonel Doherty in the parade. The accusations against him are most un- just. He sprained his ankle few days ago and he came to New Haven with his foot in splints. He had to use crutches in New York until he mounted his horse at the pier. His boot had to be split to receive his foot. He rode with pain. Considering these facts any | reasonable person will admit that the printed accusations are an outrage"
 The New Haven News says: "Colonel Doherty was severely criticised by the men yesterday on account of the long march he gave them. They were | marched seven miles before the parade was disbanded. It has always been GUS tomary in such cases to turn the con- panies over to their captains and allow them to go back to their headquarters | in any way they wish, taking the ele- vated trains when they could. Colonel Doherty, however, marched the regi- ment from Fifty-ninth to Seventy
 econd street and then back to Twenty third street, where they took the boat that had come up for them.

 NEW LONDON, Oct 14-The Boston fast bound freight train, on the New London & Northern railroad, ran into another freight train about one and one half miles south of here, at 6 o'clock this morning, making a frightful wreck.

POLITICAL POINTERS.
Messrs Root and Sake RenOminated Fol
 Representatives.

Messrs Root and Sake Renominated For
 Representatives.
 Chairman Hynes of the town com mittee called the delegates to the repre- sentative convention to order last even- ing in the police court room. William Duncan, Sr, was chosen as chairman and N. J. McEvoy, as secretary. When the report of the committee on creden- tials had been made and accepted the chair appointed as tellers, B. s. Cullen, E. B. Hardy, John L. Sake and James Byrnes.
 John McElligott moved that the secre- tary be instructed to cast one ballot for John l.. Sake for first representative. D. J. Rafferty moved that the secretary be instructed to cast one ballot for Ed | ward G. Kilduff as second representa- tive. A committee was appointed to escort MT Kilduff to the convention. He was greeted with applause and said: ! "I am more than grateful for the honor of such nomination coming to me unanimously. 1 am, however, placed in such a position that I am forced to de- cline; it may be from a selfish motive indeed, but the fact is have planned for a year to get out of politics and devote my whole attention to my business. l am deeply grateful to the democrats of l Waterbury for the many honors they ! NS uOIlS LlS III lilc leoO IOuIL and my services are at all times at my party's disposal"
 MT McElligott then moved that the secretary cast one ballot for John O'Neill for second representative. It | was so done and a committee waited on | Attorney O'Neill, who declined to be a | candidate as he had not the time to attend to it. Chairman Hynes told the convention that he thought c. G Root could be prevailed on to rnn again. The party, he said, all over the state were in favor of sending back the same representatives when it could be done, as they understood the situation in Hartford. Mir Root was therefore nomi- mated by exclamation, and the con- vention adjourned subject to the call of ! the chairman.
 Mir Root is in New Haven to-day and it is not yet known whether he will ac- cept the nomination. His name would have been first brought before the con- vention had not the impression gone abroad that he would not accept renomi- nation.
 Dr Dauray was appointed, last even- l ing at the meeting of the French demo- cratic club. to look after the matter of naturalization of French democrats.

As usual, Honest John Thompson, a true blue Democrat, stands for half fare for the working class at certain hours, but was voted down by a Re publican board of aldermen.
 Gentlemen, this is not the true spirit of MeKinleyism.
 Mckinley says that the people should have a share of the benefits brought about by every invention.
 Kelly says you will regret your action when it is too late. This is the great est franchise ever granted, to his mem o1v, since the Broadway steal. The only conciliation left the public is to chew Cream CAramels and Molasses Candy that will not stick to the teeth.
 Remember your Flour will cost you only $s 30 if you will give my man an empty barrel when he delivers your Flour.

ADJUSTMENTS,
"O'Dowd's Neishbors." ,"

Mark Murphy played to a fair-sized audience at the opera house last evening. "ODowd's Neighbors" is a musical farce calculated to make laughter. In the hands of Murphy and his clever company It is great success. Murphy is well known to Waterbury audiences and his neighbor Thornton can also fill the bill of rollicking Irishman, when he settles down to business. The sing ing was an enjoyable feature of the en- tertainment.
 "New Mexico"
 The Boston Herald of September in speaking of "New Mexico" says There was scarcely standing room at any hour in the day, and the business done was really remarkable, even for holiday The arrangement of the program this week is such that anyone entering al any time in the day can see plenty oi variety besides the play. The drama "New Mexico" is the latest work of Nil E. E. Price, and was given its first Bos ton production. The judgment of the audience was unmistakable, and the sue cess of the play is certain if other audi ences are as kind in their treatment o it, which there IS every reason to believe there will be. At the opera house to night.
