WORLD o. SPORTS.

From present indications it looks as if
there will be no Middle States Baseball
League. At a previous meeting, when
the league was formed, it was decided
that the representatives from the differ
emit clubs should meet at the 1nterna-
tional Hotel, New York last night. None
of the delegates appeared and it is not
likely that any more meetings will be
held.
Capt Tebeau has signed McAleer to
to play centre field for Cleveland next
year, and Mexican has promised to come
IN the fold early. There will be nc
trouble about signing Z'mmer, but he
will not but his name to contract be-
fore the beginning of the season. Curt
WEIGH is said to have announced his de-
termination to go to Louisville.

Little Joseph Jolly Ventured on Thin Ice
and Lost His Life.
Joseph Jolly, the 10 year old son of
Culbert Jolly, living at the corner of
Pond and Denny streets, was drowned
yesterday afternoon shortly after 4
o'clock, in the pond below the Liberty
street bridge. The boy, with several
others, was on his way home from the
Ridge street school. At the east side of
the bridge he went down the bank to
the river, in company with a younger
boy named Henry Beaulac. Young
Jolly and his companion were playing
on some cakes of Ice when he slipped
n. The younger boy caught his coat
but could not hold him and he was
swept into the stream. The boys ran
for help, but before anyone could reach
the stream the body had sunk out OF
sight. A boat was obtained and the
pond searched until 10 o'clock last
night, when the searching party gave
up until to day.
Early this morning the search was re.
sumed, several friends of the family
with boats and long poles feeling the
bottom of the pond in all directions
First Selectman Pinney sent some of the
men who work for him to assist in find
ing the boy. About 8 o'clock JOSEPH
Shaw and Thomas DAILY came upon the
body under the ice about three hundred
yards below the bridge. 1t was taker
up the steep bank to the road and Medi
cal Examiner North sent for. After
viewing the body he gave permission tt
have it removed. The mother wai
Frustrated with grief and friends anc
neighbors were lending what assistance
they could. The boys father was a
work wood chopping, near Towantic
and did not arrive until after the body
had been recovered. The funeral will
take place tomorrow at $50 p. m. In
terment in Calvary cemetery.

NAUGATUCK, Feb S.-General Weaver
is expected to speak in the opera house
tonight. He probably will tell us that
the country is on the eve of great
revolution; that both the democratic
and republican parties are practically
dead, and that the peoples party stands
with open arms ready to receive all;
that while congress has power to regu-
late commerce it has let private corpo-
rations usurp the rights of the people,
and gobble up all the dollars, so that
we do not get our share of them. The
admission to the opera house is only 20
cents to hear this noted speaker, his
subject being ga Call to Action"
The Kaiser Wilhelm II, upon which
some of our Naugatuck people sailed
for Genoa, arrived at Gibralter on Mon.

Colonel Balm, at the parish house last

we heard him on a previous occasion

not fail to do good in any community
The colonel is a pleasant speaker anC
was listened to very attentively.

CAUGHT FROM A SPARK.

The Pumping Station on Mad River De-
stroyed by Fire
The pump house at the station on the
Mad river was totally destroyed by fire
at / o'clock this afternoon. 1t is not yet
known how badly the machinery is in
jured. The station will be rebuilt at
once and the necessary repairs made. The
fire is believed to have caught from
a spark from the furnace and had
gained such Roadway before being dis
covered that the building could not be
saved, although the men worked hard
to quench the flames, until the prox.
unity of the fire to the boilers warned
them of danger and they took to the
woods The building and machinery
were insured for $4,000.

Every taxpayer in the town and
city OF Waterbury should read the
amendment recommended by the
Horse Railroad Co, now pending
before the Legislature in Hartford,
and attend to it at once; if not, I
fear you will regret your negli-
gence when it is too late, because
it reminds me of the beggar in the
old country who begged for a
nights lodging and when he was
in the house got warm and some
thing to eat, and he (the beggar)
undertook to tell the man of the
house what room he was going to
sleep in.

The average man or woman is
slow to accept teachings little out
side of the time.worn, mooth-beaten
track. For number of generations
we have been congratulating our
selves that the teachings of our
political and moral philosophers were
of the best, and that the successful
partisan papers were in all things
faithful to their pretentions. The
one that had the honesty and tcmer-
ity to sound the alarm, to warn the
people of their danger, was de-
nounced as crank, or socialist, or
anarchist, or as belonging to some
other vile brood; and so firm was
the hold those teachers, preachers,
editors and philosophers had on the
people that we'll nigh the last vestige
of liberty was gone before they
were aroused. The warning has
been needed, but none too soon, and
it may be too late !; but something
more than nicely-ordered, double
entender phrases pass current now.
The records are searched.

TN T. DEAD.

The Republican party is dead, and
while it is not pleasant to belabor
the dead, still we are reminded of a
story of boy who was seen belabor-
ing a dead dog, who, upon being
told that the dog was dead, replied
that he knew the dog was dead, but
he wanted that dog to know that
there was hereafter.
The supremacy of the Republican
party is a thing of the past, but there
is not only present, but there is a
hereafter, and the wreck of that great
party ought to be made feel, # it can
feel, that there is a hereafter-not
because it will do the party any good,
for it has long since sinned away its
day of grace.
Now, it is particularly bad dog
that calls forth the vengeance of a
hereafter, and the modern Republican
party was a particularly vicious par
ty, and its viciousness becomes all
the more exasperating because it pre-
tended to be goody-goody party.
Its hypocrisy far excelled the hypoc-
risy of the Pharisees, who, "for a
pretcnse, made long prayers, but de-
voured widows houses" who econ
demned the murderers of prophets
in words, but builded the murderers
sepulchres.
The Republican politician had sim.
deeenerated into a band Of spoils.
hunters, intent only on securing Of
fees and Doodle. Now, if it had not
added hypocrisy to its other long
list of political crimes, we could
have .cncerfully forgiven it, and laid
it away in the silent tomb of forget.
fnlness. 1t must be made to know
that there is hereafter, because OF
its hypocrisy.

Within the next four years there
will be a REIMBURSEMENT of political
lines. A conference will be called
and the good men of the Prohibition
party, the Peoples party and the
two old parties will be brought to-
gether and form a new party, which,
if had my way about it, would be
called the Liberal Reform party.
Some advocate the name Liberal, but
I think the name Liberal Reform is
more conservative and would be
more acceptable to all classes. This
new party will make common war
upon the old rum Democracy, which,
like death and taxes, we always ex-
pect to have with US. 1t will settle
the liquor question, enfranchise wo-
men, give the government control
of the means of transportation and
communication, adjust finance and
put the country under the reign Of
the golden rule in place of the pres
ent reign of the golden calf.--Helen

FALLEN MEN.

"homes for fallen women" but there
is silence concerning fallen men
that is almost oppressive; and yet
there are a hundred fallen men to
one fallen woman, and in fact it is
the multitude of fallen men that
leads to so large number of fallen
women
What shall we do with the fallen
men?
But first, who are the fallen men !!
In answer, the most notable instance
of fallen men on record was the hyp-
ocritical Pharisees who brought the
woman to Jesus taken in the act
of adultery" These men were
ready to stone the woman to death,
according to the law of Moses; but
Jesus, reading their characters, as
an open book, babe him that was
without a similar sin to least the
first stone" 1t was home thrust,
and the blood.thirsty, lecherous,
selfrighteous crowd, conscience
stricken, skunk away, cowed and
condemned.
The lesson, taught has been lost
on the world and the church. The
men had fallen lower than the wo-
man, but they would have added
the crime of murder by cruel and
barbarous death for the woman.
AS men we're then, 80 they are
now. As the church was then, so
it is now. Jewish Phariseeism con-
demned the woman, and condoned,
or justified, the man. Jesus found
the woman less guilty than the men,
her accusers, and He also found the
woman penitent; but the men, when
He laid bare their heads, were dis
covered to be hardened, blood
thirsty brutes.
Society and the church, in their
Justify or condone the fallen
man, and stone the fallen woman
through a process OF prescription
and hate that, in findishness, excels
by far the old Jewish judicial sem
tence of death by stoning. The
law, even, with the exception OF
Kansas and Wyoming, favors the
fallen man, and, as far as possible,
gives the fallen man permission to
sieze the fairest and purest and
youngest of the daughters of the
land, and sink them to the lowest
depths of human degradation and
misery and then the church, the
legislators and the fallen men are
the most vociferOus in their condem-
nation. What a spectacle The
destroyer exulting over his victims
fall And what fall for her who
once occupied high estate only a
little lower than that of angels
What shall we do with the fallen
men and the fallen legislatt rs? 1t

The Capital thinks that Carnegie

HAD we had minority misrepre-
sentation in some, or all, legislative
bodies during the past thirty-two
years, there would not be such a
continuous record of colossal steals.
A long lease of power, without the
least fear OF being deposed, bred
the most appalling corruption, and
to-day the men who SO implicitly
confided in those who had the max
ing of our laws are awake to the
fact that as foul breed of traitors
as ever cursed any country was bred
and nurtured in the national capital
since the firing on Sumpter.

JUST now, Republican papers are

MANY of the Republican papers
are vehemently protesting that the
party managers are acting honestly
toward the Populists in the canvass
of votes, but it will take more faith
than most men possess to believe
that honesty was factor in their
actions when the state canvassing
board excluded all Populists and
Democrats from the room when they
ran the lottery for Rice, contrary to
the plain letter of the law. In view
OF their acts, their protests are self
accusing.
