Distinguished Business Man of
 Baldwin Street Climbs n Tree.
 For the last week residents of the cor ner of Mill and Baldwin streets have been greatly annoyed by the unearthly noise made by a cat which was up in a tree near the residence of B. J. Smith. The cat made an effort to get down, but did not seem to be ahle to descend and all day and night the neighbors were pestered with It's piteous cries. Finally some of the tenants in, formed Mir Smith that unless this hui sance was absted they would be obliged to move out Last night Mir Smith called on his friend. T. D. Mccarthy, the shoe dealer, and after long conference it was decided that the latter should climb the tree and bring down the starving feline. Mir Smith assisted his friend up to the limbs of the tree and when he reached the place where he had seen the cat before he ascended. pussy was no where in sight, nor could she be seen in any part of the tree. Tsros stricken and pale with fright the man came down. and since that time no one has seen or heard what became of the cat. and to day all the neighbors are wondering what it was all about

Travelling LOcksmiths May be Advance
 Agents of Thieves.
 Some of the perierinating tinkers who have paid a visit to Waterbury lately have added locksmithing to their accomplish ments. They offer to repair all kinds of locks for a trifiipg fee and seem anxious for job. These men may be honest enough In their intentions but a due re- gard for safety would make it wise neither to give them job nor allow them to in- spect locks or keys. The man who comes to your door on such a mis ion may be honest, but then again he may be the ad- vance agent of thieves, finding out the kind of locks on your doors. and prehaps taking an impression of the keys in wax for future use. The safe way is to in trust such work to men that you know. The recent burglaries in Waterbury should teach people to be on their guard.

to all such people we think we can be of service. We justly claim the honor of being the first to recognize that people who were not of the ordinary build should get as good a fit as those who are, and since we have been in business we have made it point to carry in stock more suits that are made to fit the out sizes, known as slims, stouts and extra sizes, than any two houses in the city. Those people who had to put up with alterations, saw and appre- ciated our efforts, and to day if a big man or one who is hard to fit wants anything in the clothing line. he immediately thinks of us. and also brings his friends.

HORRIBLE SUSPICION.

Believed That Rosa storskewjeI and
 Son Were Murdered and Cremated.
 EAST THOMPSON, April 25 The au- thorities who are investigating the sus- pected murder of Rosa Storskewiei and her sUn, have about become convinced that if the murder was committed the bodies must have been cremated by the person who killed them. Every place where 1t is at all probable that the bodies might be secreted has been thoroughly searched. and no trace of them can be found. This leads the police to credit the cremation theory. The supposition gains color from the statements of neighbors that an unusually bright fire was maintained in the StorskewJei house the night after the disappearance of the mother and son, and that 1t burned late into the night. Again, when the premises was searched but very few ashes were found, which at the tine was considert remarkable condition. Had he cremated the bodies it would have been more than probable. Sheriff Bates says that he would have re- Doved the ashes to some distant place. if he did not bury or destroy them. The waters of the pond will not be drawn of for g week, and the search of the bottom of the bog will have to be postponed for that time.
