BROOKLYN BRIEFS


 For arIong time past people who live in the neighborhood of the Bank street bridge have been complaining or the annoyance caused by. blow. Ing oH exhaust steam in the factories between the hours of and o'clock in the morning and from all accounts in- stead of being abated somewhat the nuisance Is on the increase and as a last resort the aggrieved have con cluded that there Is no course open to them now but an appeal to the board or public health.s They say sleep is out of the question once this noise commences and that if it is not stop- ped soon property owners will suffer considerably on account of families moving out of their tenements.
 Frank Reilley of Bridgeport, man. ager of the Yannigans' football eleven, which played against the Cadets at the Driving park last Sunday, was in this section yesterday, trying to ar range return game with Manager Dunphy, to take place in Bridgeport. He stated that since the game last Sun- day he has been besieged with num- erous requests from Bridgeport peo- pie that he have the St Thomas Cadets play return game in Bridgeport. Furthermore the Yannigans are dis satisfied with the results of last Sun- days game. They came to Water bury confident of rolling up several scores against the locals but they en- | countered better team than their own. Manager Dunphy could not give a definite answer to the proposal but | he hopes to take his men to Bridge | port on November 20. He has his l schedule already arranged, so that | therein the difficulty arises. >s The Waterbury High school foot ball eleven will journey to Ansonia to- l morrow, where they will line up | against the strong football eleven of the Ansonia High school. The latter eleven, the conqueror of Bridgeport eleven, the conquer of Bridgeport and which has broken even with | Boardman and Hillhouse. It will be | the first hard game for the locals and it will afford the management of the | local High school an excellent chance of observing the work of several of | the local players and will assist them greatly in picking out the eleven who will play in the league game. The team which will leave for Ansonia at IF o'clock will line up as follows: Left end, H. Cook; left tackle, NJ. Byrnes; left guard, Knopf: center, Schick; right guard, Bauby; right tackle, Nuhn, 1 Mahaney; right end, Flanagan, Herr; l left halfback, Walker; right halfback, Hart; fullback, E. Byrnes; quarter back, Culhane; substitutes, H. Burns, T. Thompson.
 There was plenty of excitement on Bank street little above Riverside street early this morning. The cause of the excitement was a man who l seemed to have imbibed rather freely and was rather under the influence of the weather. Still he had money | hn Jx-iSh fn .fo1yn nf the tempting glass. Consequently he wandered into a Lithuanian saloon. Then the fun commenced. A number 1 of LithuanianS were within and they were asked by the good, jolly fellow to help him spend his money. And they did, and at intervals loud cheers would emanate from the saloon. But the
 climax was near at hand. The good fellow, whose money was now almost spent, did something obnoxious to the
 bartender and he was bounced and
 kicked out of the saloon. Officer Me Carthy then came in sight and luckily for the individual he was sensible enough to move without producing any
 more disturbance. This happened in a Lithuanian saloon and no doubt this
 Is one reason why law-abiding, self
 respectful people desire to have the
 number of Lithuanian saloons in this |
 in q saloon which was raided a short
 while since for selling on Sundays.
 At last the announcement has been
 made which the residents of Brook lyn have been patiently and anxiously
 waiting for for the last few days.
 That announcement, which is made
 every year about this time, and which
 brightens up the downcaSt and the
 disheartened, that is the news of Dun-
 phys fifth annual supper, which is to
 occur this year on December 6 at Chris famed cafe on Bank street. This event is to the residents of Bank
 street what the Wolcott fair is to the
 townsmen of Wolcott This year the
 supper will be on a more extensive
 scale than ever before. All kinds of
 venison, and all fiavors, of bourbon, etc.
 will be on hand in abundance and in
 plenty In a week or two Chris and
 his bosom friend, Jake Mitchell, the
 butcher, will be scaling the green hills
 of Vermont in search of game, stags,
 steers, etc. It is hoped they will not l shoot calf for a deer as somebody
 did last year. Thomas Stapleton will
 be the master of ceremonies on the
 persistent requests of his friends. Genial Edward Cullen is down
 on the program for a speech but
 his friend Robarts is requested for ; the sake of peace to delight the con- l pany with his absence. Everybody Ii| ais.welcome to the supper and no doubt 7 there will be a large attendance
