THEATRICAL MATTERS.

Manager Jacques Tells Why "Dr
 Syntax" Was Not Booked.
 Many theatre goers are finding fault with Manager Jacques for not bring ing DeWolh Hopper in his new opers :. 'Dr Syntax" to Waterbury. MT Jacques gives good business reasons for not book ing the prince of comedians. Waterbury is not on the main line of railroad and Is passed over by many good companies on that account. Hopper offered to come here, however, but stipulated that seats in the parquette should bring not less than *1 50. The season being practically over MT Jacques did not believe that the re- suits would justify his efforts and decided not to book 'Dr Syntax."
 The coming of "1492" has been postponed until September for the reason that at this time the weather con- ditions are such that the company. all though strictly frst-class. would hardly draw corporals guard here and would leave Waterbury with the impression that it was a dead slow town, which is reputa- ton that local managers do not like to have spread abroad. Early next season "1492" will fill the Jacques.
 '-Trilby" is popular fad and will draw big house Friday night. no matter what the weather may be.

THE NEW vALKYRIE AND GEORGE L. WATSON. thing set in a good hr,'czc is confidently expected. Mir. Watson, it is understood, said to tho builders of the yacht recently that in his opinion the Defender and Val kyrio III will be quite as much tho same as any two yachts could he, but" he nddcd, "Valkyrie should win by her SUI perlor sails and tho superior handling she will receive"
 George l.. Watson is one of tho best known designers of yachts in the world. He planned the Scotch challenger Thistle that came after tho American s cup in 1887 and was beaten by tho Burgess boat Vol untccr He also designed Nalkyrie II, whose quest ohthe cup was rendered futile in 1893 by the Vigilant. A majority of the steam yachts of tho Royal Yacht squadron are also the product of his ingenuity. He was born in Glasgow in 1851 and is a tall, spare man with prcmaturely gray hair. He will probably be the happiest man on earth if his Valkyrie III defeats the Hcrrcs hoff yacht Defender. Another very happy man will be Lord Dunraven, who is sC well pleased with the new yacht that h' feels moro confident than ever of winning the America's cup and has even advised his friends to back the new boat.

The Speed of a Cricket Ball.

The speed at which a cricket ball Is de nyered by fast bowler may be roughly estimated at n mile minute. When c. T. B. Turner, the Australian bowler, wis ited woolwich arsenal, England, he wa: requested by an official to bowl through the electric screen in use for measuring the velocity of projcctiles. It was found that, at point representing half way be tween the wiokets, the velocity of Turner ball was S1 feet per second, or 50 miles ar hour. At this rate the ball would travers' the pitching twenty-two twenty-scventh' of a second. Several powders, however-as for instance, Mold tho Lancashire profes sional, and Kortright, the Essex marvel bowl faster than Turner, and this woult bring the paoc to the mile per minute.

STREETS AND SEWERS.

The Waterbury Manufacturing Co Has
 No Land to Sell to the Sewer Depart-
 ment.
 A meeting of the road and sawer boards was held last night. Mayor Kilduff presid- ing.
 H. S. Chase appeared before the sewer board and objected to the proposed con- demnatiou of a right of way for a sewer pipe across the land of the Waterbury Manufacturing Go. He said that the com pany needed the land and money would not compensate for the inconvenience of a sewer pipe across the lot six feet above ground. Property owners on Camp street appeared iD reference to a sewer, and all favored the project. The board took no action on either matter. . Lucien F. Wolff argued for the extension of the Laurel street sewer. and it was voted to recommend to the council that the work be done.
 A communication was received from John R Martin, executor for the estate of Mary Martin. asking that committee be appointed to look into the condition of the sewer at 131 River street, which flows back into the cellar. The communication was placed on file and the city clerk requested to notify MT Martin to consult with the city engineer.
 Bids for the construction of sewers in Elizabeth. Charles. Third and Fourth streets were received from Edward McManus and August Fiege. but were rejected on account of informality. The clerk was instructed to re-advertise for bids.
 The following committse @ report was re- ceived:
 To the Honorary Board of Sewer Commis- sioners:
 Gentlemen:-We, the undersigned, a committee appointed to examine into and report upon the advisability of permitting certain parties holding property outside Of the city limits to connect such properties with the city sewers for the purpose of house drainage, would respectfully report that we have considered the matter and re- commended that such permission be grant ed upon the following conditions. viz. First. Such parties shall pay to the treasurer of the city the sum of $6 annually for each family using such connection. said rental to be due and payable before the is. suance of the permit to make such connec- tion and annually thereafter in advance. Second. The entire cost of making the connections shall be borne by the parties owning the property. Third. The city shall have the right to | at any lime cut of such connections on &C., count of failure to pay the prescribed rent al within twenty days of the time said rent al shall be due and payable. or for any other reason affecting the city's interests. THOMAS D BARLOW, A. 4 IRIoN.
 The board voted to accept the report and the city attorney will be requested to frame a proper form of lease. General Kellogg appeared before the road s~ ! | sidewalks on Washington avenue, He said that in course of a short time grade cross ings in Waterbur, would be eliminated and when the N.usatuck road should change its grade the sidewalks would all have to come up, He recommended a temporary plank walk.
