THE CHIEF GO ?

Mayor KilduH FavOrs Sending Mr,
 SnagG to the Fire Chiefs Internationa
 Convention.
 The international convention of the Association of Fire Engineers will be held in Augusta. Ga, on September 7, 8, 8 and 10. Already several cities of the state have made provisions for sending their chiefs. including Bridgeport. New Haven, Hartford and Norwich. Bridgeport has appropriated $500 for that purpose. No action has been taken by the Waterbury ire board or court of common council and Chief Snagg does not know whether he will attend the convention or not.
 Mayor Kilduf was asked this morning if any action had been taken on the matter by the court of common council or the fire board. He said: "No, the matter has not been officially brought before the fire board, or the court of com mon council, but believe that Waterbury ought to be in line with all the other cities of the state on an occasion like this. If there is anything to be gained for the fire department by sending Chief Snagg to Au- gusts. why think it is the duty of the city to send him there. He has the interest of the fire department at heart and would certainly avail himself of every opportu-, nifty while there to acquire knowledge which might be of much benefit in re- lation to our fire department. I have had no talk with the chief or the members of the fire board on this matter, but have no hesitation whatever in stating that ap- prove of his being sent there, because be- lieve that the money thus spent would be more than made up to the city by the amount of information which Chief Snagg would acquire on the trip and which would all be used in perfecting the fire depart ment of Water bury.

THREE DOGS KILLED.

Residents of Dublin Street Talk of
 Organizing Vigilance Committee.
 The dog poisoner has made his appear ance on Dublin street. and already three of the finest canines in that section of the town have passed out of existence as the result of his deviltry.
 James Slavin's handsome bird dog, "Dick," was in his usual health Thursday evening, and in the morning was found dead in the yard. There were no visible signs of violence on the animals body, so it was plain that death was due to poison ing.
 This morning two more valuable dogs were stretched out in their dooryards in the same street, one belonging to Edward Oampion and the other the property of Maurice Lynch.
 The residents have organized them selves into vigilance committee, and if the parties engaged in this business should be caught these will be some trouble on Dublin street, which, by the way. has acquired considerable notoriety within the past week.

Secretary Morton Gives What He Regard
 an Object Lesson.

an Object Lesson.
 WASHINGTON, Aug 17.-Secretary Nor ton of tho department of agriculture gave what he regards an object lesson to the employees of his department. He heard arguments by many of his subordinates in favor of silver, and when pay day came he ordered the paymaster to pay out $1 GOO in silver coin, weighing 60 pounds.
 The silver coin was paid to messengers and we'll known silverites in various posi-. tions in the department. Unless MT. Nor ton receives petition to the contrary it is expected that silver will be paid out again to the men who are known to favor it as currency.
 There was good deal of kicking among the employees, and some of them have in- d1cated to the paymaster that they want paper money on their next pay day One of tho men who was given several pounds of silver to carry home remarked:
 II think Secretary Morton is very un- fair in what he terms as his object lesson He might as well pay us in nickel pieces or in copper pennies and if we protest that that is not n convenient form of mon- ey to carry he might say by that protest we are not in favor of copper and nickel coin. As matter of fact, if man were paid, say SIG, 900, in gold coin, which he would be expected to carry home with him, he would protest as strongly as we protest at being paid our monthly salary in silver dollars ''
