LEGISLATIVE HEARINGS.

Local UndertaIxers Will Appear Before
the Judiciary Committee-OtherM Matters
of Special Interest to Waterbury.
A bill has been introduced into the
legislature of this state forbidding any
undertaken to embalm or do anything
which shall in any way affect the
tissues of the body of any person who
has died in this state, until the certifi-
cate of death required by law has been
properly signed. A hearing will be
given before the judiciary committee on
the bill to morrow afternoon.
The Undertakes association of the
state are specially active against the
passage of such q measure. The local
undertakers were seen by a DEMOCRAT
reporter this morning and they are all
opposed to the bill. They say it will
interfere with their business to a great
extent and be of no value whatever to
the public in general. The only reason
why a measure of this kind should be-
come law is that the work of coro-
ner may not he interfered with, and no
undertaken who is proficient in his bust
ness will touch a case of this kind until
that officer has given permission to do
so. What the undertakers want is a
law licensing undertakes, and not
allowing anyone to practice without a
diploma. The local business men in
this line will go to Hartford tomorrow
and use every effort to dissuade the
committee from a favorable recon-
mendation.
Tomorrow afternoon at 9 o'clock, be-
fore the committee on cities and
boroughs, other matters of interest to
Waterbury will be ventilated. Particular
business will be discussion on the lssu-
ing of water bonds and the question of
sewerage.
On Wednesday, March |, in room Sc
fore the joint committee from the
senate and house. employees of cities and
towns on the eight hour law.
On Thursday, March 2, before the
committee on cities and boroughs, will
be heard all those interested in the cleo
trio railroad. 1t will be general hear
ing.
A tax of two per cent on the gross
earnings is to be paid the towns through
which the roads run and not to the
state.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1893-02-27

Administration was granted on the
estate of William Brown this afternoon.
Maria Brown was appointed admins
tratrix.
Hereafter the DEMOCRAT will be on
sale at George NJ. Ladd's drug store,
corner of South Main and Washington
streets.
While some men were at work black
ing a hot stove in the knights of
Pythias hall this morning, the backing
caught fire and splitting or the floor
ignited the crash and carpet. The
damage is slight.
Mrs Patrick Boyle of 437 East Main
street, slipped on an icy walk at the cor
ner of East Main and Mill streets, Satur-
day evening, fracturing one of the bones
of the left leg and severely spraining her
ankle, DIR Hayes reduced the fracture
yesterday.
A citizen who has occasion to pass
the Y. NJ. G. A. building on West Main
street was heard talking as follows,
through the telephone, this morning:
Say, think it would be a good thing
for some of your folks to put things in
such condition in front of the Y. M. G.
A. building that people may get by
there without having to SWIM"
Application was made in the probate
court this morning for an increase of
the allowance made to Mrs Anna E.
Wakeley, pending the settlement of her
husbands estate. When James E.
Wakeley died Samuel Root was APP
pointed guardian over three minor
children and Mark Warner over one,
Mrs Wakeley was allowed S25 per
month. She has been i'll since and asks
for 5000 per month. Decision was re-
served.
Architect Joseph A. Jackson says the
indications are that there will be anoth-
err building boom in Waterbury this
year and the contractors will probably
have a busy season. Architect Jackson
has already plans in the works for a
large number of business and tenement
blocks and residences to be erected and
still more are in prospect. Eleven first
class draughtsmen are employed in his
New York office under charge of com.
petent superintendent. Among the
works recently turned out there were
designs for an art gallery and museum
to be exhibited at the Worlds fair, and
they are at present at work on plans fol-
court house in Texas, to cost $500 900

DESPERATE TENNESSEE MINERS.
4 REPETITION of the Bloody Scenes of
EeM Months Ago Feared.

a RepititiOn of the Bloody Scenes of a
Few Months Ago Feared.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Feb 27.-The
greatest excitement again prevails in
the mining regions and a repetition of
the terrible scenes of a few months ago
in the war over the employment of con-
vict labor is looked for. Governor
Turney, apparently satisfied that the
rebellious spirit of the miners had been
broken, has announced his intention of
withdrawing the standing army which
has been maintained in the mines since
the trouble began nearly a year ago.
Last night the miners held meeting
and many violent speeches were made.
1t was voted to liberate the five hun
dred convict miners in the valley and to
set fire to the stockades. The governor
has been informed of the attitude of the
miners and it is expected will counter
mand his order removing the troops.
News of a murder which took place in
the mines yesterday was received lass
night. Jim Glass, convict, murdered
a fellow convict by striking him over
the head with an iron bar.

WORLD OF SPORTS.

The Ansonia Athletic club has made
arrangements for a great athletic feat
on next Thursday night at the Sterling
opera house, Birmingham. The opening
contest will be between Jack Nelson of
Waterbury and Joe Brusso, otherwise
known as "Oliver." Both men are out
for blood and as they are bitter enemies
it is expected that before the ten rounds
stipulated are finished one of the men
will be out. The wind up will be be-
tween Danny RUSSELL the clever fighter
from Bridgeport, and Frank Moore, the
conqueror of some good pugilists, of
Elizabeth, N. J. Twenty rounds is the
limit and $500 the purse. Special trains
will run to Waterbury after the contest.
Harvey brothers of this city have the
tickets of admission to the contest.
Harry Moses fox terrier has litter of
ten pups, six male and four female.
The males are already spoken for, prob
ably bringing the biggest price of any
dogs in the state.
Jerry Denny, the wellknown ball
player, leaves Norwich to-day with his
wife for Augusta, Ga, where it is under.
stood he will play this season with one
of the strongest clubs in the south.

ABOUT THE TELEPHONE.

Superintendent Baker Talks of the
Service and the Operators.
Some interesting facts about the work
ings of the telephone services were told
to New Haven reporter by Superin-
tendent Baker of the Southern New
England Telephone company which con-
trolls the Waterbury branch. "Some
of our customers" he said, "think that
when their call is not answered forth
with, they must keep ringing to attract
the attention of our operator. Therein
they make a mistake, because the shutter
drops the first time. A customer rings,
and after that, though he may ring
valorously at his own end, not a sound
is heard in the office. The shutter is
down and that's all there is about it,
Superintendent Baker declares that
the girls in the offices were not caves
droppers. because they had too much
work to do to enable them to indulge in
the curiosity propensities they might
have. Mr. Baker added: "Of course we
receive some complaints from subscrib-
ers, but these complaints concern defects
IN the wires or the transmitter, seldom
any complaints about the girls. We
have a very good, bright, quick class.
They all do their business in clever style,
and so we are happy over the scarcity
of complaints"

driven off by George Lucky, travelling
cigar maker, and Robert Corners, who
claims to belong to Seymour. Friday
night. Hall now offers to sell for 500.
They drove the mare to a place near
Seymour and left her standing out in the
cold while one of them took the blanket
and the other the robe. Lucky was
arrested with the blanket under his
arm. Sheriff Sweeney found Corners
at Oxford, he having left the robe with
his sister. An examination was held
last night and both parties were held by
Justice Peck under $500 bonds to
answer. They probably will go to New

week for support. An appeal was
taken. There were two assault cases
before the court, the result of fight at
Union City between an Irishman and a
Swede. The former carried terrible
eye that the justice thought ought to
