taking up and putting down of the Trac-
ton Cos rails will necessitate the laying

not remain long at the Office when they

the school, which will take place at the
opera house Thursday evening. will excel
all its previous efforts. Tickets will go on

ParasoIs.

During our clearing out sale in March
we cut the prices in two on Parasols car
ried over from last year. Those we are
showing now are new, fresh goods, We
have had grand good success in the sale of
Parasols SO far and we have not an i'm
mense stock to get rid of but what we have
are choice goods in fancies and plain
black and we are letting them out at prices
that cause them to sell freely.
Ladies' Suits in wool serges. Also a
good line of duck and linen suits. We
cannot, in this space, enter into descrip-
ton of the suits. All we ask is that you
examine them and compare prices before
purchasing.
Every lady in Waterbury knows that we
are headquarters for Laces and Embroi-
deries. We have received this week in
voice of new goods, and have just the par
ticular widths and styles that are most
sought after.

Carnot's Probable Successor.

PARIS, June 25-The first effect of the
shock caused by President CARROTS assas-
sination has passed away and for the
moment everyone is thinking of the
selection of a successor. An official order
calling on the senate and chamber of
deputies to convene at Versailles at
o'clock Wednesday afternoon to elect a
successor to President Carnot was issued
this morning. The man most prominently
mentioned for the place to-day is M
Casimir Perier, at one time premier and
now president of the chamber of deputies.
He is we'll qualified to lead the French
republic in the present crisis. but it is
generally conceded that he cannot be
elected without struggle. Many states
men believe it is idle to attempt to predict
who will be the next president The
feeling to day against anarchists and
socialists is more bitter than ever in the
history of France. Despite the rage caused
by the cowardly assassination of President
Carnot, the city is to-day comparatively
quiet.

How to Test Oil.

In order to be safe an oil should have
a flash test of at least 1870 degrees 1t
is we'll that householders should know
how to ascertain what the flash test of
any given oil is before using it. The
method is simplicity itself. Take any
small vessel or pan that can stand heat
and half fill it with fine sand. On this
pour some of the oil to be tested and
place in the mixture thermometer.
Now put it ON the kitchen range SO
that the heat may gradually rise and
watch the thermometer. Hold ct the
same time a very thin lighted taper over
it. When the thermometer has risen
sufficiently. the vapor will ignite. The
temperature is the flash point. Servants
ought to be warned against the practice
of filling lamp quite full.

The TT. Judson Store,
Hot Weather Goods.

Ours is distinctly a dry goods store.
We have no tinware or crockery. We do
not keep Millinery or Carpets. We can
not boast of fire or ten cent counter but
when we say that in dry goods ours is a
stock that meets the wants and supplies
the demands of the majority we are hitting
the case exactly.
Our Wash Goods department is showing
goods from 20 to SO cents per yard that
are being appreciated by our patrons. We
are not advertising to sell so cent goods
for 10. We could not expect you to be-
lieve us if we did. Neither are we giving
our goods away but we are selling them in
many cases at little or no profit and in
some instances at an actual loss, for this
late in the season we prefer to turn them
into money even if we do not get what
they originally cost. Our stock of Wash
Goods is large. They are moving freely
as they are all desirable goods at ridicu-
lousy low prices.
