TWELVE WERE PRESENT.
District Committee Authorized to Blu.
Land on West Side Hill.

District Committee Authorized to Buy
Land on West Side Hill.
Only twelve people were present in
o'clock to attend the special meeting of
the citizens of the center school dis
trict, when School Clerk T. J. Moran
called the meeting to order. Emmett
Riordan was made chairman. The
clerk read the notice for the meeting
and Chairman Tierney of the district
committee explained from a map the
position of the proposed purchase in re-
lation to the grounds of the West Side
hill school. He stated that inasmuch as
the land had been occupied by the dis
trict during the past seven years, there
would probably be a great amount of
damage. The bank, he said, had
waited during this period, expecting
from time to time that the district
would purchase it. Mr. Webster, attor-
uey for the bank, with whom he had
conferred, had stated that in his opin-
ion it was better for the interest
of the center district to buy the prop.
erty, as in all probability if there was
any litigation the district would lose its
case Mr. Tierney explained in detail
all the measurements of the banks prop
erty and that of the district, and finally
moved that the center district commit
tee be authorized to purchase the prop.
erty in question from the bank at the
price asked namely, 81 900. The motion
was carried without dissenting voice
after which the meeting adjourned.

WORLD OF SPORTS.

Mark Baldwin signed yesterday as
pitcher for the PIttsburg club, at a
salary, it is understood, of about So, 400
Danny Richardson may sign with the
Brooklyn. Another report is that
Brothers will go to st Louis.
The Sun says: Among Wards CORE
spondence yesterday was letter from
John G. McGeachy, who is in Clinton,
Mass. He says his leg, which was injured
acouple of years ago. lis now all rigth and
he is ready for business. There was
also letter from Mike Dorgan. the
once great fielder of the New York
team. who has successfully undergone
the Kelley treatment. Dorgan wants
to be league umpire and seeks Wards
assistance. Ward said the Philadelphia
people had begun to develop a coyness
of fmanner Eregarding Conner.
In view of the fact that A. j. Reach has
told several New Workers that there
would be no difficulty about the trans
fer of Conner to New York, his present
attitude is singular.
Speaking of the Washington base ball
team yesterday. George w. Wagner,
president of the club, said: "The infield
looks like Latham, Wise. Sullivan and
Joyce; the outfield like Jim O'Rourke
Hoy and Radford, and the pitchers like
Killen, Sullivan, Meakin and Inks. We
are little bit in doubt in regard to oul
catchers, but think we shall have q
different lot from last year"

relatives here Monday and attempted
to gouge an eye out and cut off his left
hand. The affair occurred at Long
Ridge, ten miles north of here. Accord
ing to the story of relatives Ferris, while
working in New Haven became insane

parents sent him to the insane asylum
in Middletown. Early in the winter the
asylum physicians bacame convinced
that Ferris was cured and he was re-
leased. He returned to his home and
for several months showed no signs OF
insanity.

SOUTH NoRwALK, Feb 16.-John E.
Smith, young man we'll known in this
town and a prominent member and
officer of the Norwalk Wheel club, left
town very suddenly this afternoon.
The cause of his hasty departure is said
to be a scandal IN the family of James
Cousins. Smith has been keeping COM
and it was announced that they were to
be married. Smith has suddenly
changed his mind and ran away to
avoid marriage. The young lady's
father says he will follow Smith and
have him arrested.

might be of assistance in obtaining in

Mr. Pigott has held interviews with
the three applicants for the postmaster

CRUEL DEATH OF A NEWseoY.
Struck and Killed by a Train on the
Naugatuck Road.

Struck and Killed by a Train on the
Naugatuck Road.
John Cullen, a 8 year old boy, was
struck and almost instantly killed in
Bridgeport yesterday afternoon by
the through Naugatuck train from New
York which arrives in this city at 6:5S
o'clock. In company with another boy
of the same age named Abbott Knight,
young Cullen was selling papers near
the scene of the accident.
How he came to cross the tracks is not
known, but it is supposed that some of
the bargemen on the wharf called to
him. At any rate he lodged in front
of freight just in time to be struck by
the train. The pilot threw the little
body number of feet, but the cruel
wheels did not touch it. The only dis
figurement was to the head, which was
crushed in and mangled.
The train was quickly stopped and
one of the passengers, Or Crane of this
city, did everything possible for the
little sufferer. He was placed on a
stretcher, but died while being carried
to the baggage room. In the meantime
the ambulance had been summoned, but
the services of the staff were not re-
quired.

NAUGATUCK, Feb 16.-Charles Parks
is building the Gerrish cottage on Mea-
dow street and will probably have his
work finished in about ten days. The
Charles Thatcher company of Water
bury contracted to and did furnish the
hot water plant for heating, and did fin
ish the same, with exception of bronx
ing. When the company were about to
draw off the water from the boiler and
radiators, Mr. Gerrish wanted them to
let it remain so that he could keep the
house warm which the company say
they consented to, Mr. Gerrish agreeing
to assume all esponsibilIties. This the
latter denies. During the severe cold
weather he allowed the water to escape
from the boiler and telephoned up to
know what to do, having just started a
brisk fire. They told him to run
water in from the street hydrant which
he did and blew up two sections of the
heater. The cold weather then froze up
and burst every radiator, causing a loss
| of over 5000. The company offered to
make the work good for 500 but Ger
ployed William Neary as his counsel il
suit was brought. Yesterday employees
of J. M. Page & Co tore out Thatcher's
| work and dumped it outside, where il
lay this morning. Thatcher's men are
still there finishing the plumbing work
Our citizens thing that if Gerrish ha6
not accepted the job he had no right tC

vision of the children while in the home
and afterwards, they would have been
able to produce the records, showing
conclusively that the charges on that
point were without foundation. The
cases Of abuse alleged by DIR Adams, it
is claimed, are those of children that he
placed in homes chosen by himself and
agreed in writing to look after and re-
port from time to time to the board of
visitors. This he never did, and in two
cases out of the six does not know what
has become of the children.

"SiberIa "
With its love story, and its startling

that the stage has ever seen, and as the

KELLY SAYS

That when he told the voters of Water
bury last fall to look at their table and
vote for their own interest, he was turned
down, because some other prophet came
to town and told them if they voted the
democratic ticket they would buy every
thing 50 much cheaper than they did
under the reign of Mckinley. If you
have, you voted right; if you have hot,
you voted wrong. Your wife can tell you
all about it.
Another straight tip. When you can
buy FLOUR FOR So 80 A BARREL, it is
the best investment you can make, be-
cause when an article gets on the bottom
it is great deal easier to raise it up half
dollar than to force it down FIVE cents,
and when you buy 100 POUNDS OF
GRADUATED SUGAR FOR $500, in
my opinion you will not buy it any
cL eaper in the year OF 1898.
Next Wednesday will be Ash Wednes-
day and EGGS very high, and unless my
predictions go back on me and history
fails to repeat itself, I will sell strictly
