Exciting RUNAWAY.
Mrs Hubert Verrier and Son Thrown Oh
of a Sleigh.

Mrs Hubert Verrier and Son Thrown Out
of a Sleigh.
A gray horse attached to the front
part of a cutter and without any driver,
dashed up South Main street about 1870
this afternoon at the very top of his
speed. A note of warning was, how
ever, passed along more rapidly and all
vehicles drew up to the sides of the
street leaving the way clear. Several
persons along the route endeavored to
stop the frightened animal, but were nm
able to do so, until he reached West
Main street, on the south side of the
green, where the end of the shafts
struck a heavy wagon, throwing the
runaway. The horse slipped some
twenty feet on his side after falling and
was stopped by bringing up against
a hydrant at the corner of the green,
considerably bending it. The hackmen
assisted the animal to its feet, freed him
from what was left of the cutter and
finally, no one appearing to know
whose property he was, led him to a
stable. 1t was learned afterward that
Mrs Hubert Verrier and son were driv.
ing toward the center from Naugatuck,
when at City Corners the horse became
frightened and the occupants were
thrown out, but were not injured. The
sleigh was strewn along South Main
street.

The Water Board Says:
You Pay The Bills, We
Do The Rest.

KELLY was struck dumb when he read
the verdict of the 10 jurymen in the com
mon council in bringing verdict contrary
to the best authority in this world on wa
ter supply, Engineer Herring.
But the people are not dumb, for they
saw we cannot speak too loud in telling the
difference between Store Eggs we have
been obliged to use for the last five days,
because Kelly's hens say they cannot lay
eggs with the thermometer below zero.
The change has come and we are all at 1t
again, and Kelly has his usual allowance
of eggs this morning, and drops the price
of egge from as Cents to 39 cents dozen.
This is a drop of 7 cents dozen in one
dav. and all indications of lower prices in
a few days, and remember your flour will
cost you only $3.50 if you will give my
man an empty barrel when he delivers
your flour.
SUGAR. Here is chance for families.
Owing to scarcity of barrels in Havemeyer

NAueATucK AND VICINITY.
Doings of a Day In the Valley Below
This City.

NAUGATUCK, Feb. I've are inform
ed that after Mr.. Young, who is trying
to obtain charter to extend the horse
railroad to Grove cemetery, left here
last week he found that the Consolidated
road would oppose the charter, and that
it wo,1ld be better for his people to have
hearing before the legislative commit
tee yesterday than to defer the matter
for another week as he had arranged
with our selectmen to do. Consequent
ly Attorney Terry came here on Monday
and agreed for the applicants to certain
concessions asked by the board, thus
preventing opposition. Selectmen
Schaffer and Hungerford, with Attorneys
Sweeney and Kennedy, went to Hart
ford yesterday in the interest of the
town. 1t is to be hoped that our repre-
sentatives will also see to it that this
franchise is not granted without some
equivalent as it will be very valuable
one.
Word was received last night that the
remains of Mr.. Sheperd, aged IS, of
Bridgeport, would be brought here on
the II o'clock train for burial.
While the water company have had
| no mains frozen this winter, many of
the connections between mains and

Owing to Mr. Kennedy's absence the

WORK OF THE POLICE.
Chief Fans Annual Report Presented
Last Night.

Chief e. ans Annual Report Presented
Last Night.
The board of police commissioners
held their regular monthly meeting last
night, Mayor Webster presiding and all
the commissioners being present. Chief
Egan's report for the month was &C
copied. 1t showed 81 arrests, 90 stores
and offices found open. 1872 dodgers and
12 electric lights found out of order.
A petition signed by every member of
the force was presented to the board
asking permission to formally organize
a mutual aid association, composed eX-
clusIvely of members of the police force
not excluding officers. The petition
was accompanied by a copy of the rules
and bylaws under which it is desired to
organize. The object of the association
is to make good any time lost by
member of the force in good standing in
the association, by sickness or accident.
The commissioners granted the petition.
Chief Egan also presented his annual
report which was adopted and ordered
on file. From it is seen that there has
been no material change in the depart
ment during the past year. The force
is composed of a chief, one lieutenant,
one sergeant, twenty-four patrolmen
and thirteen supernumeraries. One
patrolman is permanently detailed as de-
tective and one permanently at railroad
stations. The discipline and efficiency
of the department is praised by the
chief; only two cases, and those for
minor offenses, coming before the COM
mittee on discipline during the year.
The work of the department is summed
up as follows.
Whole number of arrests, 500. Of
this number 791 were for intoxication
and 22S for other offences clearly trace
able to intoxication. There were 1913
committed to Jail, 1855 to the town work
house and 81 to the reform school.
There were 5SS who paid their fines and
costs.
During the year six acquisitions were
issued, viz: four on the governor of New
York, one on the governor of Pennsyl-
vania and one on the governor of
Florida. All the parties for whom re-
QUESTIONS were issued were arrested and
five of them were brought back to this
city for trial, VIZ: three from New York
| city, charged with seduction, and one
from Pittsburg, Penn, charged with en-
| beZzlement, and after being placed I'M
case against him by paying the costs
and the full amount embezzled, so that
in this case the officer returned to Wa
terbury without his prisoner, but in pos
session of $3.50 in cash.
Appended to Chief Egan's report are
tables showing the details of the arrests
the disposition of the cases and miscel
laneous items. During the year the Of
ficers found 354 stores ane offices open
and 1903 electric lights out of order. The
appropriation made for police in 1899 Of
$50, 791 was not all used las an unexpend
ed balance of 81, 617.83 was reported.

AMUSEME NTS,


"Old Jed Prouty" belongs to that rare
class of plays which grow in interest by
repetition, and as a picturesque and
wholesome narrative it occupies high
rank. The series of character studies
presented are as instructive as they are
entertaining. The fourth act of the
play admits of variety of eXtraneous
humor which is happily supplied by the
Introduction of the Bucksport quartette
and other notable specialties. 1t will be
produced at the opera house tomorrow
evening by Richard Golden and his
company.
"Cupid's Chariot."
Tonight the musical comedy Cupid S
Chariot" will be produced at the opera

for the capabilities of the Powers

excellent supporting company. The

do some clever dancing. The novelty
called the "devils dance" is sure to
please.
