Kelly Says

The committee who have locked up the seats and the Public Park from the use of the people are doirg a great injustice to hundreds of men who have changed the ap- pearance ofWaterbury from howl ing wildet ness to one of the most pros porous cities in New England,
 whose youth has gone by in our mills and now they seek our Public Park to rest their old and weary borcs and watch the progress that l> our thorougfares and flatter thelr minds by saying, "We have done our share in bringing this pro- gress about" Gentlemen of the committee, remember one thing: That there is no happiness as long as you keep your heels on the neck of the other man. Ifyou will put these seats on the park aud the trustee of the Bronson Library will open the old library for a public reading room, and l will furnish the whole community with Buttermi k at 2c glass, we will be the hap piest people on the face of the globe.

AT THE WATER WORKS.
Men at Work, and More Will Follow
Today.


AS was anticipated, there was NO trou-
BILE yesterday morning at the reservoir
when the work was resumed by Contract
or Burke. AN the men who could be
utilized, both on the reservoir and the
power house, worked all day. The Ital-
iaDs did not hang about the works, the
most of them being scattered through
the city during the day, but conducted
themselves in quiet and peaceable man
ner.
Mr.. Burke encountered another diff

Of men started in to work. 1t was dis
covered that there were very few tools
at hand. Inquiry revealed the fact that
Benin and Hamshaw had shipped to an.
asphalt company in Portland nearly all

crowbars and wheelbarrows. This loss
Of course falls upon the receiver. Mr..
Burke viii at once secure an additional
supply,
The Shively matter was yesterday final
ly settled satisfactorily, as was indicated
in yesterdays Astorian would be done,
and there will be no more difficulty about
securing material. Although the efficient
guard of police were on duty during the
day, their services were not required.
The prompt action of the department
under the mayors instructions no doubt
prevented rash action on the part OF
some of the more hot-headed Gaborers,
for which they would eater wards have
been sorry. With the Exception of the
dozen or fifteen Italians who left up the
river Wednesday and about as many
more who went 20 Portland last night,
az of them will go to work on the pipe
line today During the day they were all
very busy at the offices OF the various
notaries public making out their claims
for back wages which were filed in court
thus indicating their wil.ingn ess to let
the law take it's course.
A fuH force of men will commence work
on the tunnel again this morning, and
soon al branches of construction on the
water works plant will be running as
smoothly as though there had been no
difficulty rNs
In speaking of the events OF .he past

would not have been so indignant.

HE PLAYED TO PLEASE THE GIRL

Washington Post
A pretty and very pathetic incident
occurred in connection with the prepara-
ton Of the programme for the Marine
band concert in the White House grounds
last Saturday. Professor Fanciulli, be it
known, receives every day in his mail
half dozen to fifteen letters from per-
sons who request him to play certain
selections at these open-air concerts. Fan
ciuAi is a very accommodating sort of
man, and would doubtless be only too
glad to comply with all these requests
were 1t possible to do so. They come
In such large proportions that the pro-
lessor Is handicapped. and many requests
must necessarily be disregarded. Early
last week, however, Fanciulli came upon
one letter that ouched tender spot in
his nature. The letter was in feminine
handwriting and begged the professor to
play several selections at the White
House concert, to be given the following
Saturday afternoon. He glanced at the
end of 1t, and saw that it was signed
by three names ,all women. But what
attracted his attention was the closing
paragraph OF the note, which was as
follows:
When we tell you that we are three
sisters and are all blind, and that our
greatest joy in life is music, and that
our circumstances are such that we have
but little opportunity of gratifying this
passion for listening to music of any
sort outside of those beautiful concerts
we hear each Saturday in what has been
described to us as the glorious grounds
back Of the presidents house, which we
know we never can gaze upon with our
own eyes. then. professor, you will grant
us this little boon and let US hear next
Saturday these few favorite compost
tions"
This appeal was too strong for Fam
ciulI. When the programme was pu1-
lished Saturday morning the notice stated
that the concert arranged for was by
special request" That afternoon at the
concert the band played" as theatrical
peop.e would say, to the three blind sis
ters, who were seated on one OF the
benches to the left of Fanciul;i. Four OF
the numbers of the programme were
se-ected by the sisters. They were "Mid.
summer Night Dream" cornet solo; 'gThe
Lost Chord" The Forge in the Forest
and Loves Herald" The blind girls
capped their hands with pleasure ana
Faneiulli himself. who was perhaps the
only person in the throng except one or
two newspaper men, who was watching
the gir.s, appeared to be as greatly |
Pleased at the pleasure he was bestowing |
on the blind as they were themselves.

The reason the men have not been paid
in full is for the same reason that many
Of our best citizens do not meet their
obligations promptly, viz.-lack of funds.
1t lis sufficient for the contractor on this
work to state that owing to inclement
weather he lost about 5000 and two
months time, and now for - to
step in and cry fraud, to sensitive mind
1T is, to say the feast, unpleasant.
If James w. Welch with his colleagues
In the city council will pay me the $246
which they have owed me more than
two years for work on the extension of
Chenamus street, win be only too fad
to straighten up the small balance Iue
for labor on 18th street sewer and the
balance 1 will donate to the unfortunate
Italians who are swarming about the city
reservoir clamoring for their pay.

who had been defrauded by the contract
ors." here beg to state that on the 12th
street sewer there were no contractors,
but that there was a contractor and the
contractor here begs 10 state that Mr..
James W. Welch in this statement Is
not only a malignant falslfier but that he
knew that he was falsifying when re
made the statement.
1t Is true that there is sthl due a small
amount OF money Considerably less than
SloO to the hborers on that work. but It
Is not true that workman on 18th street
