Four Of Them Pursaed Fly a Man
 Armed With a Rine, Hut Escape.
 The widest excitement imaginable pre- vailed on Third street early this morning. About o'clock Mrs William Kiely, who conducts a grocery and liquor store in that street, heard voices outside and going to the window saw four young men stand ing near the store door. In an instant the plate glass door-was smashed. then three of the fellows ran down towards Charles street while the other walked to the other side of the street and stood there watching the house to see if the noise had awakened the occupants. The woman remained silent and soon a low whistle from the man across the street brought his companions to his side and together all walked over to the store and commenced picking out the broken pieces of glass so that they might effect an en- trance without injury to themselves. At this juncture Mir Kiely raised the window and asked what was the matter. Nothing daunted at the presence of the woman the thieves still continued to effect an en= trance. Seeing that they were bent on burglarizing the place Mrs Kiely shouted for help. and soon Timothy. John and Peter Luddy, who live next door, appeared The thieves took to their heels in the direction of the New England road. Peter Luddy secured a rife and pursued the fellows as far as the | tracks. but the men disappeared in the neighborhood of the old house on the track and no one could tell where they went This section of the townis practically teru- rorized by an army of midnight maran- ders who make it point to watch the movements of the officer on duty and do all kinds of deviltry when he is at some other end of his beat. This makes four or five places that have been broken into | within the past month and no one seems to know who is engaged in the business The work is done with considerable method 50 that the policemen are powerless to catch the gang.

Dennis T. Callahan spends Che Night a Prisoner i'm the e-Almshouse.


 Prisoner i'm the -AImshouse.n
 Dennis J. Callahan who was arrested in Union City by Sheriff McDonald, spent the plight in the almshouse ann was brought to Attorney Brett's office at II o'clock this morning. He showed traces of the unfort- sunate predicament he finds himself in. He is a clean looking fellow and reiterates his innocence and claims that he can fully prove that he is accused wrongfully. At torney Kennedy. who appeared for him, asked for an adjournment until such a time as will give him opportunity to pre- pare his case. They were ready to furnish a suitable bond and he'suggested that the case be adjourned for two weeks. Attor- ney Russell insisted that the defence should file an answer to the complaint, whether the accused was guilty or not guilty. He wanted tn case to go on in the proper way.
 Attorney Kennedy said he refused to Ale an answer now. It was not just to have a man arrested last night and have the case come to trial thas morning. The defend ant himself has already said that he was not guilty. which was answer enough. Attorney Russell quoted the law on such cases and said he should have brought the case before himself. He did not care to wait on the whims of Attorney Kannedy. <
 The latter replied: II am led to be- lieve that the town of Waterbury has not much of a case here, because they are so anxious to go on with an immediate trial. am led to believe that & deposition has been taken which cannot be admitted at the trial. Unless the statement of this woman in her expiring moments was taken, her words cannot be admitted" Attorney Russell said he did not care to argue the case at present. Justice Brett asked the prosecution and defense to agree on a day and the amount of bond. After a consultation it was agreed that the case should be tried one week from next Saturday. Bonds of $500 were furnished and Callahan was released from custody.

 CARD FROM JAMES J. QUINN.
 Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 Dear ,Sir-There appeared in & Sunday paper an article concerning r. c Lodge in | which it was hinted that was the one that was responsible for the insulting personal and that I had heen heard to speak hArshly of him during the past week. I wish to state that q, the man that gave that information to the Sunday paper was disturber | l have not said one word against Lodge only what I have said to his face, and what wrote in the papers some months ago. and that had manhood enough to sign my name to. I wish to say that did not write that article in the New Yorh paper regarding Lodge. nor would be guilty of such a silly piece of business as that was. Whatever happened between Lodge and myself lately we do not resort to the newspapers to get satisfaction. H. is not afraid to meet me, nor am I afraid to meet him and talk the matter over. do not blame Lodge for what was in Sun days paper.
