are IA entries, in the 2:29 class are en-
tries and the local has 10 entries. Be-
sides these will be the bicycle races

A collision between a freight train
and two cars standing on the main track
of the New England road near the Maple
avenue crossing in Danbury, about A
o'clock yesterday morning, wrecked the
cars and slightly damaged the locom-
tive of the freight. An east bound
freight which was being made up in the
yard left a short time before the acct
dent. Through the carelessness of the
trainmen the last freight car and the
caboose were not coupled to the train
which went off with them. The second
freight from Fishkill, N. Y, arrived a
few minutes later, struck the cars. They
were hurled down a ten foot enbank-
ment and partially wrecked. No one
was hurt.
It is understood that the Aluminium
Brass and Bronze company, which
started in Bridgeport few years ago,
will suspend business and sell its plant
on June 1. F. j. KlngsburY of this city
is president of the company, in which
large amount Of Waterbury capital is
invested. The company started in with
good prospects and plant that was
considered one of the finest in the
country. For some time it had plenty
Of work and employed about 200 men,
but later drop in the brass market and
cut in prices injured the business
greatly. In order to secure contracts
the company was forced to sell at
ruinous prices, and although it had
plenty to do, no money was made. A
week ago 100 men were laid off and
since then q few men have been dis
charged each day. The strain on the
finances of the concern has been very
great and the managers decided to give
up the struggle. The plant is mort
gagged for $500, 200, nearly all it is
worth, but enough will probably be
realized from the sale of the property to
pay other obligations of the company.
Its exact liabilities are not known. It
is reported that one of the large brass
companies of Waterbury has under con.
sideration the purchase of the plant and
may continue TO operate the business,

EZRA DuNwoRTH's STOLEN TEAM

Recovered After Much Trouble and
Brought Home Last Night.
Liveryman Ezra Dunworth of East
Main street returned home last night
with his stolen horse and carriage which
he had the good fortune to pick up
piecemeal in three towns. When young
Burrows got the team a week ago he
started towards Massachusetts, line.
At CRANKY he drove into Green's livery
stable and wanted to sell or trade
it. The proprietor would not
buy but he struck a bargain
nevertheless, for the carriage, which
must have had some misgivings of how
young Burrows got possession of the
property, for he Immediately took it to
carriage shop and wanted it done over.
When Mr. Dunworth found it the body
had been taken from the running gear,
the top taken off AMI had received q
rubbing preparatory to getting new
Ecoat of paint. The man gave it up,
however, without any trouble. Further
on, at the town of Southwick, the har'
ness was found and got possession OF. A
title more difficulty was experienced in
obtaining the horse. Burrows had driven
to Westfield, Mass, and had made 8
rade for an old horse, a pig, some
dickens and a note for $35, with some
ne in that town. The new owner turned
over to horseman to dispose of al
lction, but before the sale took place
r Dunworth was at hand and claimed
property, Chief Maynard of North
npton rendered what aid was possible
furnishing information concerning
disposal of the outfit. Burrows was
ed in Massachusetts, last Saturday anG
will have to satisfy the ends of justice
h that state before the Connecticut au
thorities can get him.

PURITY FOR HEALTH.

We make speciality of perisbable
goods, such as fruits. vegetables, fish,
meats, cheese. sc.
While ice is absolutely necessary
to keep perishable goods fresh. it is
not enough to secure purity. There
must be, besides, a free circulation of
air about them, else this mir becomes
damp and charged with impurities
which areaimparted to meats and 9th,
er goods.
For this circulation our cold stor.
age is a perfect arrangement; for, as
the air becomes warm. it passes
through the ice, discharges its impnr
tiles and comes back fresh and health
full.
Having spared neither pains nor
expense for the convenience and veal
of our custom, the public, we feel
justified in earnestly soliciting its
favors.
