Kelly Says,

That the present electric cars remind him of the old Juggernauts of India, which were the means of furnishing death to people who believed that the gods demanded self-sacrifee. When you see the car couplers project two feet ahead of the car and a coupling pin pointing down about ten inches below. it makes you shudder to think of the effect it would have on an in- dividual who was struck by them. There is nothing to save a person from being cut in two by this pin and afterwards being disembevled under the car. Kelly sur- gests the removal of this coupling when not in use and in its place put a basket net. used similar to a cowcatcher, so that when a person was struck they would fall into the net and thereby escape a horrible death. Let the Traction follow Kslly's advice and you will save life and money. And if you had taken ce on June 2 and bought granulated sugar at s4.l2 per hundred you would not now have 10 pay S4S7. Indications point to an advance in a few days if 'Grover" signs the bill. And when the people of Waterbury can buy St Louis Flour for s3.25. washburn Crosby X Co.'S s4-10. PiIlsbury's Best s4.35. These are all new ground flour. that are sold by every merchant in town.
 If you want -four that was ground and put in storage last January. that makes more bread, whiter bread and the bread that will keep most longer. you will pay as follows: Pillsbury's Best s4. T5; Niagara Falls S4.75-if you will give my man an empty barrel.

Federal Authorities Order Soldiers Out

WASHINGTON, April 26.-The strong
hand of the national government has
at last been extended TO check the
"Coxeyites" who seized a train upon
the Northern Paciftc railway at Butte,
Mont, and started eastward. To-day
Colonel Swayne, who is in command
of the department of Dakota, in the
absence in Europe of General Merritt,
was instructed by telegraph to use
United States troops to intercept the
mob and restore the railroads prop
erty. This action followed closely
upon Attorney General Olney's tele-
gram of instructions to United States
Marshal Bedc at st. Paul.
There is no legal difficulty in the
way of governmental action at this
stage as the railroad property is now

morning at the home of his daugh-
ter, --near Oakland, at the age of IS

SAG, ,204 In settlement of claim of $75,-
600 he had against the Government.
Samuel Forrest obtained Judgment
for $20, 900 against Ex-Governor Price,
on account of former business trans

tempt of the Court of Chancery of

was finally released on bail, and death
then drew the curtain.

ARRESTED A BURGLAR.
While supposed to be RObbing
His Aalf Brother.


Our police off1cers were In luck last
Monday night; they arrested burglar.
Sometime during the night Captain
Dilks, living on Cohansy street, oppo-
site the Central depot, saw a light in
the house occupied by Thomas Bow
ers.
Mr.. Bowers and his family are not
at home and Captain Dilks thought
there was something wrong, so going
out In the street he met Officers Camp
Garrison and Shull.
They all repaired to the house, and
as they reached 1t, they met Frank
Bowers, Thomas half brother, coming
out of the gate with bag under his
arm and lantern in his hand.
He was placed under arrest and
locked up. On the boy were two jars
of canned peaches. The time was
between one and two O'Clock this
morning, and his excuse for being
there was that he had been looking
after his brothers chickens, as he was
passing and heard them making
noise.
Thomas Bowers, who is working at
Greenwich, was sent for, and when he
arrives hearing will be held.
