JOHN aAdAIN,s BODY FOUND.
Has Been Missing Since January
 Body Found in Ansonia.


 Word was received here this morn ing that the body of John Gagain of 20 High street, who has been missing since last January, was found in the canal at AnsOnia. On January 16 Mir Gagain, accompanied by his wife, went to AnsOnia to visit MT Gagain's sister, Mrs James Crowley, who lives there. Late at night, Mir Gagain went out, telling his wife he wanted to get something and that was the last the family saw of him. He leaves a widow and two children, the oldest two years old and the youngest three months; also his parents, MT and Mrs Peter Gagain, two brothers, Thomas and Peter, and d sister, Miss Bessie Gagain, all of whom reside at 13O Cherry street. The deceased was born in the town of Cavan, Ireland, and came to this country thirty-tive years ago and came to this country in 1857. He lived for time in AnsOnia and then removed to Waterbury and re- sided here up to the time of his death. He was employed at Benedict & Burn hams and was we'll liked by his shop mates His sad fate is 9 rude shock to the whole family, who were hoping that the missing man would some day be found alive, but in this they were doomed to disappointment. He was the oldest of the family and the first to be taken away. There was nothing the matter with him when he left his sisters house in Ansonia, so that the circumstances under which he met ms death probably never will be cleared

A Sure Cure
 For Divorces

The only toub1e wfth real happiness is that after we secure the prize we do not appreciate it. For instance, the girl you would make your wife to- day you would do anything ill the world to please. Why should there be a change after marriage?
 The same charms which won your heart are still there. -.'
 The leopard does not change his spots. Why have you?
 You found pleasure flirting with your best girl before marriage; why not keep it up afterwards. 'Tis when we stop flirting divorces begin. NEV- ER BEFORE! Then we say, keep on tiirting-with your own good wife. We have furnished thousands of homes and in no case have we had, any trou- ble where the flirting habit was kept up. Our spring stock of House Fur niShings are the best we have ever ex- hibited and the prices are the lowest, while the quality is the highest.
 EASTER BRIDES are now keeping us very busy.

WITH THE AMATEURS.
Rehearsals Held Yesterday for Some
 of the Coming Productions.

The cast of characters for the St Joseph's annual entertainment helu all interesting rehearsal yesterday after- noon on the stage at Polls theater. The drama this year is strong one and is filled with interesting situations throughout the four acts. Hoodmah Blnd'' has never before been attempt ed by amateurs, and many who were acquainted with the play predicted that the members of St Joseph's soci- ety had bitten off more than they could chew. Those same predictions were made on several other occasions when the society were presenting dlI- ficult productions, but all the entertain ments of the society have been declded successes The present one will also be a success. It has been q hard struggle for the past few weeks, put the various characters kept peggIng away, although sometimes they were drawn over the cOals by the instruc- took their call in good part and studied all the harder to make the play sue cessful. The tickets are being dis posed of rapidly and it is believed that this year the two houses, the matinee and evening performances, will De larger than ever.
 There was another excellent rehear- sal of the Elks minstrel performers yesterday and Scott Snow expressed himself as decidedly well pleased with the advance being made in the solos and choruses. As he opens up the va rious features of this novel minstrel performance it dawns on the minds of the members of Waterbury lodge that they are to present something which will be copied by other regular minstrel companies throughout the country. When the audience gazes on the opening scene as the curtain as cends they will be surprised to find that the old style minstrelsy has been cut out and they will wonder what is going to happen and how under hea- yens they are going to make minstrel performance out of it. The trans formation comes quickly and without any unnecessary delay, and as the va rious features are enacted it will be discovered that there are fifty persons on the stage. but where they dropped from it will be difficult to tell. All through the performance there will De an air of mystery and a pleasing enter tainment.

Finds Two Women in One and Read
 Lecture to the Bartender.
 Paterson, N. J., March 25.-The Very Rev Dean McNulty was out Sat- urday night making one of his GUS tomary trips to the many barrooms of the city. He did not touch uptown district this time. but devoted his visits to saloons along Market street and in the Sandy Hill district. He merely peeped into several places, and, seeing no sign of anything out of the ordinary, kept on his way.
 In one saloon in Market street, near Main, he attempted to enter door leading to side room which women frequent, but found his coming had been learned beforehand and that the door was bolted. The only saloon in which he really saw anything was one in Straight street, where he found two women drinking in side room.
 He ordered both of them out, and. being dilatory in their movements, the dean grabbed one by the arm and gave q yank towards the door. While he was doing this he said aloud:
 This is shame. This place ought to be raided. I'll have it raided."
 The man in charge of the place, not knowing who his visitor was, being in the barroom and unable to see into the side room, shouted at the dean: ..What's the matter with you in there? This ain't Sunday"
 Then he went into the side room, and when he saw Dean McNulty his language moderated. The dean gave him lecture before departing.

IL YOU had cared for me IL would have
been different
You have marred my life and YOU arc
the only one who can remove the blot
from my character. You have refused
TO do so, and 1 have determined To do
this. II is the only way out OF my
trouble.
Cleo, remember me when you meet
another young woman who Is like me
