CONFRONTED BY BURGLAR.
Burly Negro Forced Entrance
 Lady's Chamber at Midnight.

Chicago, Nov 13.--A negro burglar forced his way to the apartments or Mrs Orrin w. Potter, wife of the mil li0naire steel manufacturer and bank CT. at her home, 50 Lake Shore drive. shortly after 1 o'clock this morning, and when discovered in the act of ap- plying a sponge. saturated with chloro- form. to the nostrils of his victim, struck her a fierce blow on the head With a slUHgsh0t. The shock Of tie blow rendered Mrs Potter unconscious, and inc doctors who were called fear that she may not recover.
 Mir Potter WsiS asleep in q room @u- joining that of his wife. but hn was not awakened until the robbcr had tommlnded his daughters to remain silent He jumped from his bed and reached tho downstairs hall jtist #S the nan jumped through the door t9 the ground. The Misses Margaret and Bessie Potttr heard their mothers Srra2ms for help and rushed to hr" bed chamber. Being confronted h.r thp rnbheT they lied into the street. Subsequently they returned 10 Ill" house. called q physician for their mother. and notified the police of what had happened.
 Iltis is the second burglary i'll the Potter residence since lI2t spring. h April last porch climbers secured SIS GOO in diamonds and jeWelrY.
 This morning thc intruder was frightened away before he had $5 cured anything. It iS thought the bur Glar knew the surroundings. ard that he h"d nu accumplice who waited on tn" outside in order tu warn his com pani0u Of any danger.
 When thc police arrived they found Mrs Potter still unc0rSciuUS Blood WHS streaming from her head. and by Ike sill" of the ned W"s found a smlaH bottle on which WaS ? ch.oroform label. The police believe they have an important cIoU ill the label on the bottle. as they hope to get definite description of the man who purchased the drug.
 Miss Margaret Potter was overcome jy the shock.
 Had n0t Mrs Potter been awakened by the robber it is thought that he would have succeeded in securing many thousand dollars worth oi jew elrE. Her room is away from those of the other members of the family and fhr burgar would have been able to work un1nolcsted.
 shortly after the doctor arrived VI 's Potter revived long enough to give a description of her assaiiant, but aga n lost UnconSciOuSnCsS. She said she thought the man was wearing q mask, and that he locked like negro. II" was about 30 years old and was well dressed.

Almost the whole population of the city was out, either to take part in the procession or to seq them.
 For week several street corners of the city had been the scenes of al most continuous campaign meetings. Republican. democratic and inGtrpn- dent orators alternated with or fol lowed one another. The crowds some times cheered all the speakers impar- tially. and once refused to listen to any. On this last occasion the speak CTS stand was toppled over. but na- tive Hawaiian speakers climbed telp- phone poles and from this safe cHii- hence kept up the flow of speech-mak ing.

COMING ENTERTAINMENT.
The Girls Glpe Club of High School
 Will Be the Entertainers.

A week from next Monday night, November 26. t's most unique and interesting entertainment ever given under the auspices of the Waterbury High school will hold the boards at Assembly hall when Miss Dee's Girls Glec club present their first concert. To say that tke hall will be crowded is no prediction. it is a certainty. This is one of the few girls glee clubs in the state and when the Waterbury girls appeared at the teachers con yentiOn in New saven recently they were the recipients of enthusiastic ap-, plauSe. The Boys Glee club concert last winter was a success. but it is the concensus of opinion that the girls will totally eclipse their efforts. The prelude will consist of q one act operetta which will probably be the most entertaining feature of the pro gram. For many weeks past the girls have been faithfully and quietly prac- ticing and the result will be big surprise. Then. toe. anything musical which has Miss DeC's name connected with it is q sufficient guarantee that ii will be more than worth listening to. The proceeds will partially be de- voted to the football fund. for which. through Miss Dee's efforts. more than S5Q has ho>I raised.

Hart of the Chicago National league baseball club has returned from his three weeks vacation trip through the west and south. with enthusiastic reports of the advantages to bn found in California for q spring training ground.

 Los Angeles is the particular spot on the map which Mir Hart considers most desirable and the people of that city are anxious to have the team go their to train.
 President Hart said: I did not com plete details for the trip, but from present indications we undoubtedly will select Los Angeles for our training place next spring.

MAY BRING ABOUT SETTLEMENT
Death of MT Daily May End Litiga-
 lion.

New York Nov 13.-The Journal of Commerce prints the following:
 It is the opinion of copper men gen eraliy that Marcus DaIy'$ death will have little effect upon the interests of the -Amal@amated Copper company. His long illness has practically forced him out of the active management Of the company for many months. Moth ing definite as to the successor of Mr DaIy as president of tine company is obtaiuablc, but it iS the opinion of many that H. II. Rogers, vice-preSi- dent of the company, will fill the pO- sitiOn. In this connection it may be worth noting that AIr Rogers recent ly made an extended trip to the Ana conda and other Amalgamated Copper properties.
 II is barely possible that the death of MT Daily may have d tendency to bring about an earlier settlement of the immense amount of litigation now pending between tie rival interests in the Montana courts.
 Cunsidera ble interest has been mani Tested over the probable disposal of Mir Daly'S holdings of Amalgamated Copper stock. According to some re- ports Mr Daily sold out the bulk of his holdings long ago. Others in closer touch with company deny this and say that the stock has not been sold and that Mir Daly's heirs are not likely to sell it. According to one account the Standard Oil interests will take care of NJ" Daly's stock.
