TERBURY EVENING DEMOCRAT SATURDAY. OCTOBER

Mrs Bassett. president of 1the local W. c. T. D., will speak at the rescue mission tonight. The drawing class of the Friendly league will begin the first studies to- night, and they will be heard every Saturday evening until further no tice.
 Union Rescue mission, Edgar For rest, superintendent, Sunday, October 2Sth, 7:30 D. m.: Address by MT For rest, subject, ''The Skepticism of Pilate.'' A. N. Latin will sing two solos at this service.
 Lack of water in the lakes at Forest park was the cause of closing few departments of the Waterbury Manu- facturing company's plant this fore noon. The water is so low that the mud in the bottom of the ponds got into the supply pipes and choked them By noon the obstruction was removed and work was resumed in some of the departments that had been closed.
 St Cecilia's fair will close tonight and the prizes will be awarded, and it is expected that big crowd will be in attendance notwithstanding the in- clemency of the weather. Last night the Misses Annie McGoyern and Annie Whelan did their parts in very ar tistic manner. Tonight the entertain ment will be furnished by the follow ing: Fred Probst and Al Darling in vocal solos, probably the Nassau sis ters, and Napoleon Montambeau, the great boy buck and wing dancer
 A suspicious case came to the at tention of the police to-day. N. J. McEvOy. a weel-known citizen of the south end Of the city, was arrested for being intoxicated. the fact being that he was utterly oblivious of his sur roundings and appeared to be under the influence of some drug. The arrest was made by Officer Mccarthy. After the officer had returned to his beat he was told that early ill the forenoon McEvoy had been seen with a man who is we'll known to the police. that he had on an overcoat and had d lot of money. When taken into custody McEvoy had neither money nor over coat. He was never arrested before, and he is not the kind of man who over-indulges in strong drink.
 The second of series of sociables was given by the St Thomas L. and D. society at their rooms on North Main street last night und was q grand success socially and financially. Pre- cisely at 9 o'clock ttle grand march, led by EicePresident-E Elect Michael Scully, and the retiring vice-president.

Among the out-of- town guests were the Misses Burke, of Terryville, Smith of Bridgeport. Connor of Anso- mia, and Sullivan of Westerly. R. I. This society is earning for itself a Splendid reputation and its hospital ity is well known. not only in Water bury, but throughout the state. Dur ing the intermission between the dances the following program was car- ried out: Trio. "Oh Promise Me-" the Misses Mary Fogarty and Denehy and Michael Burns; song "On a Moonlight Night William Dwyer: mandolin se- lections. the Misses Dodds; recitation, ''Nirginius,' Thomas Seydes.

Want to see Mckinley or Bryan elect ed president of our United States. We've got a perfect fit for the presl- dential chair right here in our own town; judging from the way he'is try ing to follow up cur former selectmeh. Well, he's what you can call the reai Lilley of our valley. Now if he couio be elected our next president he mlsnt get his weather eye after the trusts
 and might be able to scare THEM. However, his first attempt at scare doesn't seem to take much effect Ill Waterbury; maybe there is too much brass in this neighborhood. Of course if we land him in tine coveted chair ne must talk facts and not insinuate, De- cause insinuations don't come from great men. We want facts, and 1T you take notice we generally give facts. When we say we lead in selling good, clean, nice tasting TEA or COFFEE, .it's a fact, something we can prove: All we ask is that you give us trlai and learn the facts.

Elected president your sugar will cost you double the price you are paying now, and he gives the following req sons for saying so:
 In 1898 we consumed 4,474. .15O.56 pounds of sugar. We only raised SO4,- O31 ,6SO pounds. This compelled us to % into foreign countries and purchase 3.67O,1 $50 pounds of sugar that we paid for with gold dollars. Nothing else would be accepted. We all know that one gold dollar is equal to two silver dollars of the brand of William I. Bryan. If this reasoning is not sound, will some democrat let me know and I will sell milk for 5 cents a quart all winter.

TO BEAUTIFY THE HAND.
Simple Exercises That VIII Increase II

To increase the strength. symmetry and in

minutes before you go to bed to muscle bending
and stretching. Extend both arms at right angles

ward. In this position the hand Is 70 be bent
upward, downward and sideways. With fingers
first together and then extended and without
moving the arm, bend tho hands upward. from
the wrist as far as possible. then back to the origt-
nal position, then downward as far as possh
BILE. For the sideways movement bend alter.
nately toward the thumb side and the little finger
side. Continue this swinging Of the hands up
ward, downward and sideways for some minutes.
Hand rotation next follows. In this the arms
are held a. for the bending and stretching exer-
cises. With even and constant movement tho
hand performs all the previous motions, that Ia.
from the bending position upward into the bending
position sideways, downward, sideways In the
opposite direction and 50 on: first the fingers are
held together and then extended.
Finger bending and stretching comes. next
With arms extended the fingers are slowly but
vigorously bent enough TO form a 6st and are
then again opened forcibly,
For finger spreading, hold the tips NJ the fingers
apart, with arms extended as before. and perfectly
straight. After the spread the extended fingers
are brought together again, or are lightly clenched.
this latter action increasing the effect Of the exer-

forearm are exercised by these movements, and
after due time IL there Is not q noticeable gain
in suppleness Of wrist, contour Of arm ana
shapeliness Of the hand there Is only one reason

fabric for both dressy and plain summer gowns,
Fabrics with the crepe finish are very popular
now and will be very much worn through the
coming season. There is some variety, tool IN this
sort 81 finish. one especial kind being a silk and
wool mixture called Paris crepe. II comes fully
forty six inches wide, costs 80. 10 a yard, and has
oil the requisite qualities Of dainty coloring and
soft, glossy finish. Another silk and wool ma
terial which is very much liked is la~nsdowne
and is perfectly smooth like satin faced cloth,
but soft and dainty in texture. II is not new,
but as it costs only al 25 a yard and has so many
OF the fashionable qualities, it fills a place be-
tween the cheap and the very Q expensive materials
which every woman cannot afford 10 have.
II the variety in robe dresses already imported
can insure a future for these spccialties they will
flourish as they never have fourished before,
but they always seem To BE- an uncertain quantity
somehow, even though they are lovely TO look
upon. This, however, is probably due to the
fac, that they are so marked in style that II is only
the woman with a long purse who can afford TO
buy them. They are more varied and beautiful
than ever this season, as many different fabrics
have ventured into this feld. One of the latest
novelties Is a robe dress Of satin faced cloth hand
painted in a conventional design Of flowers and
leaves In the ecru tints. one thread OF heavy
