The commercial statistics Of sc-
attic for the year about 20 eloas
maiSo a most interesting study 20
those who keep pace with the rapid
Ngowth and development OF an up
tn-Gate and modern city. In but
few Instances has the increase over
iass year fallen below from IS 10 80
par cent. There are = number Of
distances where tho increase has
been 100 per cent. The showing
therefore is perhaps the best Of any
city IN the union Of ths size Of Sc
attic.
The Star Is able 20 present these
figures today after careful re-
search OF public records. and they
are substantially officially correct.
The statistics for the first IL months
are official Estimates for the pres
ent month are based upon figures OF
last year and an average Of the
months OF 1901. Therefore the estl-
mates prepared and herewith pub

Ideally correct.

The Increase In building permits
issued this year Is practically loo
per cent. The total for last year was
1854 This year IL viii be over $500.
The Increase In value win be fully
SlrSIA0Vo. An interesting item in
regard TO building permits Is shown
In the large number OF history frame
houses put up. there being very near
1900 or an average OF more than
four houses for each day In the year.
This shows that the man who "a iIv-
Ing on q limited salary or wages Ia

pay the exorbltant rents charged by
the average landlord. Some per-
sons might suppose that most %
these houses are built by men OF
means who desire 20 rent them. but
employees OF the building permit de-
Iartmsnt OF the city engineers Of

the houses built are BY persons who

He knows that this paper aims to adver-
tise only the best in its columns, and
when he saw Chamberlain's Pain Balm,
advertised therein for lame back, he did
not hesitate in buying a bottle Of it for
his wife, who for eight weeks had suf-
fered with the most terrible pains in her
back and could get no relief. He says:

Waterbury Democrat., 1901-09-04

Bristol owes much to Norwich for the winning of the two games yester- day from Bridgeport Had the O'ROurke followers taken those games there might be something doing in Bristol on Saturday. As it is now Bristol has the pennant In fact, she had it several weeks ago if some of the players had not become too confident and began to celebrate too early.
 Dr Frank Reisling, manager of the Bristol base ball club, and the acknowl- edged star pitcher of the league, has received a very fiattering offer from the management of the Chicago Ma tional league club to join that club when the season closes here. He is wanted as pitcher for that nine, and it is understood he could get big sal ary if he desired to make the change. Reisling has established dental prac- tice in Bristol, which is rapidly ir- creasing, and no club, no matter how wealthy, can prevail on him to leave the town.
 The last base ball game of the sea- son in the State league in Waterbury will be played tomorrow, when inc winners of this years pennant will be here. Bristol and Waterbury always put up a remarkable game of ball and there is little side bet on the result of the game tomorrow. Manager Har- ringtOn believes that Waterbury can beat Bristol and is willing to back that belief. To that end goodly sum of money has been wagered that his team will win this last game, and there should be some interesting work down on the Athletic field tomorrow after noon.
 There is some talk of having Bristol and the Boston National league team come together in Naugatuck within two weeks. There might be a bunch of money in it too. Naugatuck occa- stoned one of the greatest surprises to Jim Mutrie when he was manager of the New York team years ago. The genial Jim stood out on the road and sold tickets for admission to an. open lot and after he sold enough to cover his guarantee he was more than as toEished to see the crowds still coming up to settle. With no fence around 1he grounds and only the semblance of 9 grand stand, yet the people of Nauga- tuck and surrounding towns paid sew era1 hundred dollars to stand around in an open lot and see the New Yorks play ball.

TOMMY FELTzss WIFE.

z ] Z
 Savannah, Ga, Sept 4.--Nrs Thomas Feltz, wife of the Brooklyn tighter, who has been in Savannah some time, is the mother of baby boy, born Mon day morning. Feltz is proud or ms young one, but has not let up ill training for his. bout with Kelly.
 The story of two marriages in which Feltz was the groom was told yester- day by Manager McMurray. Feltz married Miss Frances Perkins last September in Brooklyn. and the event the other day in the Church of the Redemption was the second ceremony performed to satisfy the brides pa rents. s
 1t seems Feltz and his sweetheart slipped before Brooklyn justice and were married in legal style. The form of the service was mostsebjectionable to the brides parents who are Po- flanders. They stormed. but Feltz held his ground and refused to consider a church service.
 The bride was taken in charge by her parents, who tore into. bits the certificate issued by the justice. More than this, they held on to Mrs FeltZ.
 When the storm grew in fury Feltz left for the south. Mrs Feltz's rela- tfyes continued to make themselves heard, and there were threats of shoot ing
 McMurray saw the clouds were bank ing rapidly and made Feltz get on the train and speed away to Brooklyn. There, about two weeks ago, in the Church of the Redemption, regularly ordained priest made Feltz and Miss Perkins man and wife for the second time.

Race for the Points is Hot One With the Riders.
 4 Henry oVeit of the Century Road club, who started out to break the 800 mile record of 34 hours and 10 min utes, was obliged to quit early on Mon day morning on account of fall that was caused by his running into sand heap, Yeit started a week ago last Saturday for this recprd,T using the new course of the c. R, Q. A., between Valley Stream, Massapequa and Hampstead, The first time he stopped because of rain. ef
 It seems that David Horton, the one-armed man who rode so fast and finished fourth in the race on the Co ney Island path on Monday, is by no means a novice. Years ago, according to an official of the N. c. A., Horton started from scratch in the Martin road race at Buffalo. If Horton stat ed on his entry blank that he was a novice, it is possible that the race committee of the Associated Cycling clubs of Long Island may disqualify him.
 Keen competition has marked the progress of the N. 0. A. grand circuit that e1tds with the big two-day meet at Boston on Friday ahd Saturday. Although Frank Kramer looks to be the winner of the championship, there remains a chance for Lawson or Tay- Tor to secure that much coveted honor owing to- the fact that double points are to be scored in the final contest Since. Lawson joined the circuit at Syracuse, Kramer has scored nine points more than the Swedish lad. The
