A Waterbury Man Held Up on Middle

A Waterbury Man Held Up on Middle
 bury Road Last Night.
 Hector Martel. salesman for the Driggs < smith Co, was held up by highwaymen late last night in the valley just this side of Middlebury center. He had large amount of money in his possession, but the diplomacy which is regarded as very necessary qualification of successful piano agent stood him in good stead, and he escaped with the loss of only $2.2O.
 Yesterday afternoon Mir Martel drove to woodbury to see piano customer and re- ceived a payment of $450 from a recent purchaser. He was detained until late and it was after 10 o'clock when he started for homo. He was unarmed. but no thought of highwaymen on such back country road entered his mind. The money was safely slowed away in an in side pocket.
 At the foot of the steep hill near Wood bury two men stood in the road. and to prevent running them down Mir Martel was obliged to stop. One of the fellows put his hand on the wheel and asked for a match. They were tough looking GUS toners and Mir Martel at once saw that he made mistake by stopping. However he put on a bold front, handed out a couple of matches and attempted to drive on. With an oath one of the two ordered nm To give up ms money. lie nappeneu to have two dimes in his overcoat pocket and handed them over. but that only aggravated the highwaymen and they or dered him to produce the rest of his money or be hauled out of the carriage.
 The situation was growing desperate, Mir Martel was determined not to give up his employers money. which he knew the tramps would find if they searched him. He had two big silver dollars in his pocket which he gave up saying that he had no more money.
 Damn you" yelled one of the men, there is more where that came from. Give it up"
 With that Mir NIartel grabbed for the whip and tussle for its possession took place, in which the whip was broken of short. The horse became frightened and started to run. with one of the highway men clinging to the wheel. He was obliged to let go. but not before the wheel was ''dished." Mir Martel made the fast est ride of his life home, and is to-day suffering from the effects of his thrilling experience.
 He will carry revolver,i in future.

NOTHING OFFICIAL.
What Father Tierney's Assistant says With Regard to the Appointment of a Iyishon

What Father Tierney's Assistant says
 With Regard to the Appointment of a
 Bishop.
 The New Britain correspondent of the Hartford Times quotes Rev Father McGurk. curate at St Mary's church in New Britain. as saying that Father Tier ney had received no official notification of his appointment to the bishopric of Hart ford diocese, nor has he learned anything contirmatory of the rumor from any source that he would be justified in accepting as reliable and authentic
 Father McGurk branded as an absolute falsehood made out of whole cloth the re port of an interview, published in the New York Herald of Sunday. which that paper said its representative had with Father Tierney on the subject of the bishopric. Father McGurk said it was quite probable the pope has not made an appointment to the vacant bishopric vet
 It is well known that Father Edwards of New York. who is one of Father Tierney's closest friends, Is in Rome on visit, and that he would be likely to hear as soon as Tierney's appointment, if it had been made. Father Edwards would not lose any time in sending cablegram to Father Tierney. Bishop Gabriels of Ogdensburg Is also in Rome making an official visit to the pope, and he, who knew Father Tier ney when the latter was a student in the seminary, would certainly avail himself of the first opportunity to cable the news of the appointment.
 It may have been that the nomination had been made by the propaganda. but not confirmed by the pope at the time the press dispatch was sent out from Rome.
