The Waterbury Furni- ture Co and the Elm, peror of Japan.

The wonderful progress which East Main street is making since the Great Furniture Emporium took up its abode there one short year ago. is attracting the attention of all progressive people. But the fact is not generally known that the Waterbury Furniture Company is closely connected with people who are in con- stant communication with the Emperor of Japan. And how many people know that this ruler is by far the most progressive in all the world. He is Emporer of dynasty which dates back in an unbroken line for 2,555 years-centuries before the birth of Christianity. And only few months ago, when he made up his mind to settle his old account with China, he asked his people for a loan of $25 ,000. .0O0 to carry on the war, the business men of Japan subscribed three times the amount on the spot, and refused to take any interest on their loan, No wonder that 40, ,000, ,000 such people could knock out four hundred million Chinamen. Prof Edward $. Morse says in his great work on Good Man. ners," that the Japanese are by far the best bred people in all the world. Now that the Waterbury Furniture Company has @ church in it's building as well as school it expects that the scholars who have been privileged to come here, will take on some of this spirit which has brought Japan and the Waterbury Furni- ture company to the front rank. We are glad to be able to tell our boys that it is scientific truth backed by the best living authorities, that all the forces of nature are with the fellow who wants to climb not downwards, but upwards. Let this encourage you! A smile of contentment came over our faces last Monday morning when we saw the people catch on to those huge Rockers for 99 cents. There is nothing like keeping the people happy. Ne: Monday morning we will do the same thing at 9 o'clock. and remember our motto: .'We never fool the public" Our sales this July will be the largest in our history; thanks to the people who have stopped going to New York and Boston to buy their goods. Moral-Be like the Elm peror of Japan-live in the hearts of your own people, and they will keep your mem- ory green.

Many Women and Children Injured While

 OswEGo, N. Y., Aug. While Buffa- To Bills wild west show was giving per formance here a terrific rain and wind storm struck the town. The big dressing tent was blown to tatters, and many men were slightly injured.
 The east half of the canvas covered grand stand was blown down. Many wom- en and children were trampled upon and badly hurt, but none will die.
 The Indians prevented stampede oi the western half of the audience across the arena by crowding their horses against the ropes. The band did not stop playing during the excitement, and at the very worst moment struck up "The Star Span. gled Banner" The show was also kept going, in spite of the sheets of rain which swept across the field.
 Among the severely injured is an em. ployec of the show named Brown, who is at the City hospital with a fractured skull A little girl was nearly drowned before as sistance reached her, and Mrs. P. Flana gan had her head badly cut by a flying pole.

 Shortly after II o'clock this morning and army of people could be seen rushing in the direction of Holmes, Booth & Hay dens, and dark volume of smoke which shot over the building in graceful curves gave credence to the rumor that the build ing was on fire. All headed for the big gate opposite Bank street and there the factory hose company was putting several streams of water into the old tar shop which stands on the east side of the Naugatuck road. The fire seemed to have gained considerable headway and it looked at one time as though it would be neces- sary to send in an alarm But the men fought the flames bravely and in a short time the fire was under control. The damage was slight and was caused princi- pally by water.

Julian Leaves Town Suddenly-Fitz-
simmons says Jim Il Coward.

HOT SPRINGS, Oct. 24.-Corbett
today made the following announce
ment: 81 gave to every reputable
newspaper representative last night
my final proposition in order to make
a fight possible, naming ten reputa-
BILE, unbiased men for referees and
giving Julian until noon today to
agree to one of them or suggest others.
Julian left here this morning uncere-
moniously without arranging any
thing. / further said / would wait
until noon tomorrow friday for him
to deposit $4,000 with any reputable
man in order to make his boasts good,
/ claiming that nothing further could
be done without his side stake or q
referee. 1 will wait until noon to-
morrow and, FitZsimmons not accept
ing my fair proposition, / shall leave
for New York at 8 p M and pay no
further attention to Fitzsimmons.
al claim the championship belt by
forfeit. FitZsimmOns has failed to
live up to a single agreement, and the
Florida Athletic Club has declared the
match off. / want this claim acknowl-
edged, and announce publicly today
EnaL Will OIleT the DelI Ip Oe
for BY Maher and O'Donnell.
JAMES J. CORBETT."
To this announcement the CLUB re-
piled as follows: According TO the
conditions governing the belt, its dis
position goes with the decision of
referee. In the absence of a referee
il depends upon the final disposition
OF the stake money. II, after October
3lst stakeholder Dryer acknOwl-
edges your claim to FitZsimmons'
stake money, the belt will be awarded
to you The declaration by the club
that the match is off is not q factor to
the agreement between you and FitZ-
simmons. II there Is no fight on
October 31st, the agreement articles
are nullified. III you announce your
retirement as champion we will offer
the belt for competition by Maher and
O'Donnell or any other challengers."
Brady announces today that Corbett
and his party will depart for New
York tomorrow at 8 O'Clock, and that
Corbett will announce TO the world
his retirement from pugili-m forever.
This decision was arrived at today,
inasmuch as Julian left the city this
morning without coming to any agree
ment as to- who shall referee the con-
test and gave no assurance that his
$4,000 side stakes would be posted in
the hands of responsible party by
noon tomorrow.
Julian ami Fitzsimmous would be
in this city October 3lst, ready and
willing to fight Corbett, and the
$4,000 would be posted in due time,
so opinions as to COrbett's departure
vary. Julian says that upon his ar
rival here with FitZsimmons that if
COrbett Is not in the city they will
follow him up. If he is in San Fran
cisco they will go there, and wherever
they find him they will either make
him fight or crawl out of it in a more
definite way.

has acted a coward and q sneak in the
whole business, aud if l ever meet

Sense of Color and Language.

NJ. 4. de Froberville, who has recently
studied the languages of the central AT.
rican tribes, finds u deficiency among them
in sense of color, excepting always tho
Malagasies of Madagascar, who are partly
civilized and skillful artists. White, black
and red have separate words i'm these
tongues, but the other colors are regarded
as varieties of these, blue and violet being
spoken of as black, orange as red and green
as either black or yellow. The argument
from words is, however, unsatisfactory,
and because Homer was an early poet, and
the languages of primitive peoples had not
SO many words to describe colors as we
who are more civilized and instructed. il
does not follow that Homer or the savagcs
were color blind, as compared with our
selves Words are introduced when dis.
tinct need has arisen for them All that
we can legitimatcly infer from the argu-
ment is that the primitive people have not
learned to observe and distinguish colors
very WELL not that they cannot perceive
them Homcr's eyes were no doubt as
good as Mr.. Gladstone's when both men
were in their Prime, but his language did
not furnish the words required to distin-
guish all the tints he saw. Even now
there is no language which enables men to
do SO London Globe.
