present rose to explain the matter to the
board and was sharply called to order by
the mayor who informed him that he was
not a member OF tine board of aldermen

ROBBED OF HIS WATERBURY.
The Highway Robbery of Tuesday Not
n Serious Affair.

a man who gave his name at Maurice
Costello, reported to the police yesterday
morning that he had been robbed on the
corner of Federal and Middle street, OF "a
gold watch and SEA in money. lnyesti'
cation of the case by the police demon
strated that Costello lost no money, but
did mart company with q niokle Water
bury watch.
Costello is tramp weaver. and came
IA town from Windham Monday. where
he had been working. He walked In as
far as Westbrook and took the eiectrics
from there. He is about 40 years old.
The fest thing he did when he got to
town was to get drunk, and however
much money he had when he reached the
head of Preble street. his finances were so
denleted at IL. 80 that he tried to sell his
Waterbury for which he sought to get 40
cents and no takers He started to go
down Middle street, when George Delaney
came along and met him near Federal.
He offered to take the watch and sell 1t
for the weaver, and to hasten matters
grabbed it and knocked the owner down.
Delaney started down Middle street.
Costello got up when Archibald McDon-
aid and Peter Curran came along and Nc
Donald, thinking Costello was good
thing gave him another push with his
fist.
The victim of this rather harsh treat
ment got up finally went into drug
store and from there to the police station
where he told his story.
The police found that the trio went
down TO the Grand Trunk wharves, re-
mained there awhile and tfen to the
electric light station where they remained
until morning. At O'Clock Curran
and Mcdonald went to IA saloon at the
corner of Cotton and Fore streets, where
they were arrested an hour later by Oil
GERS Pillsbury and Lamont. Delaney was
found by Officer Pillsbury at . O'Clock
at the Grand Trunk. Costello identified
Delaney as the man who robbed him and
Mcdonald as the one who struck him.
Curran does not appear to have taken
any active part in the affair
The police found where Delaney tried
to sell the watch for. 80 cents. The value
of the property taken is SO small that the
men will probably be put before the court
today for larceny and assault.

FIRE IN an ATTIC.
Roof ola Fore street Tenement De-
stroyed This Morning.

The SAUNDERS Of the members of the six
families residing in the three and a half
story wooden tenement block at 81 Fore
street were broken this morning. by a
brisx tire In the attic, which threatened
at one time to get lower.
The block is occupied by the following
families: William Gately, John Collins.
Mrs. Hannah O'Donnell. Patrick Duran,
John Cady and Mcdonald family.
William Gateiy who lives on the second
floor, first knew OF the fire when he was
awakened by Il Collins girl. He ran 10
the attic stairs and looking M saw that
the whole upper part OF the house was IN
flames. He ran down and told his brother
John Galley who went out and gave the
alarm from box "a The alarm rang in
at I2 30.
1t took the department but little
while to get the blaze under control but
the roof was by that time total wreck.
The tenements were well wet down, but
the tenants suffered no loss by fire. None
of them were insured. The building is
supposed to be owned by l.. ID. Austin.
The loss ON the building will be the cost
of new roof and replastering and paper
ing the apartments, probably five or six
hundred dollars. William Gately says ne
does not think that the tire caught about
the chimney as when he looked the fire
was In another part OF the attic.

AN EXECUTIVE SESSION.
Board of Aldermen Discuss Certain
Matters Pertaining 10 the Gas Co.

AT a special meeting of the Mayor and
Board of Aldermen yesterday afternoon
a decision was rendered in executive
session ty City Solicitor Morrill, on tbs
nstter of the right OF the Portland Gas
light company to refuse to put gas in
to the houses OF people unless these appli-
cants fled "a bond as security for the gas
used.
The opinion of the city solicitor, de-
livered in executive session, so II Is
understood, was that the city has certain
power in cases of this kind, but in some
ways the power OF the city is limited.
After discussion OF over an hour
Alderman Rounds was authorized by the
board TO call upon the president Of che
Gas Light company and epdeavor to bring
about an amendment of certain rules
which are inforced by the company and
which are objected to. If the president OF
the Gas company refuses 10 call meet
ing OF the directors of the company 10
amend these rules then the board OF alder
men may compel him to call one anu an
attempt will then be made to make the
necessary amendments
An order amanating in the lower board
and introduced in that body by Council
man Waldron at the meeting On January
End, was read by tho mayor. This order
which was passed by the council and sent
up for concurrence provided for the APP
pointment of a committee to investigate
certain bills amounting to $3.50 which had
been paid the Portland Water company by
the city and tn report whether or not
these bills had been legally passed upon
by the city council.
This order was introduced by Council
man Waldron in the council on December
5th, but was then laid on the table. MI.
waldron said ut the time that an order
had come down from the board of alder
men requesting the Portland Water com
pany to lay mains in Vine, Grove ana
Grant streets so that adequate flre protre-
ton might be given the property on these
streets. The council had refused To pass
the order until it was understood that the
city should not pay anything to the water
company for putting in these water
mains. Mr.. Maldron went on TO say that
without authority from the city connoii
the committee on fire department haa
proceeded to order the water company 10
put in theiwater mains and had paid the
company $3.50 for 1t. He claimed that the
committee had no authority to contraot
these bills without the order Of the CITY
council and for this purpose wanted "n
investigating committee appointed 10 see
by whose order the bills had been con-
tracted and paid,
When this order came mp in the boara
OF aldermen yesterday afternoon Alaer-
man Rounds, member of the IRE conf
mittee saia he oourted the Investigation
but he thought the matter mighb oe
settled right then and there Inc Guy
solicitor was sent for and be told how the
bills amounting to $3.50 had been APP

Comes from the Inside.

Whenever l fuiloi to get my coffee for
breakfast. l would have sick headache
lefc.a noon. II seemed to me curious
thing that naturally healthy girl should
have sick spells Of this kind unless she
aad been dossi in the morning with some
thing.
I l naturally concluded that all was not
right ana iuasmuch as l was in "a very
nervous conuitlon anyhow, | went to the
doctor for nerve tonic.
He told me l would have to quit drink
ing coffee, and when l said could not
possibly DO it because / always got sick
If didn't have Il ne coffee, he said, Use
Postum Eood Coffee. 4" Well. l tried 1t
twice. ana gave it up because 1t tasted so
fiat.
One day | was up to Dr. sRuggles's In
Urinary ana remarked TO Mrs. Ruggles
hat the DIR. had told me that must
cave OFT coffee and wanted me to use
this new tangled stuff called Postum,
but that il was positively unbearable.
she said, My dear, you never have had
IA good cup Of Postum evidently" said,
mo | never have. l have only tried it
twice. " ''Well, she said, ''you 90 back
and look at the package ami you will OBJ
terve that the directions insist upon con-
tinued boiling, at least fifteen minutes.
not that length of time for the pot TO set
)n the stove, but it must stay there until
Il begins to boil ard then boil fifteen
minutes will guarantee you will get
fine, delicious tasting black, rich cup
of coffee, and perhaps better favored than
any you ever tried before. The old-fash.
toned coffee is actually killing you" she
said. You are terribly nervous, and
your complexion is long ways from
what it should be al your age.
Well, when got home, l tried making
some Postum at once, and followed direo-
lions carefully, and l must say it was
Just delicious. l have continued to use
it ever since.
am well and hearty now, and my
complexion has cleared up so that during
the last three months people remark TO
me continually, How clear your skin
isi'
am naturally of light complexion
and fair DR.. Ruggles has all OF his
patients use Postum instead of ordinary
coffee. l have induced papa TO take up
Postum, and he likes 1t very much. One
of our neighhors, Mr.. c. A. Barke, was
i'll in bed with heart and some kind OF
stomach complaint. He was habitual
coffee drinker, but when he got down, DR..
Ruggles took his coffee away and gave
him Postum Food Coffee. He Is almost
we'll now, and says thai he believes the
Postum was the main cause of his recoy-
cry. A great many in our town use
Postum In place OF ordinary coffee. Miss
