The chief at once went to the place men toned, but the three young men had gone and the chief was told that they had gone to Waterbury on the brewery company's team, so he and Officer Nc Kiernan got on the trolley car and Journeyed as far as City corners, where they overlook the brewery wagon. When the fellows saw the pc lice get off the car two of them ran up the hill, but the other fellow stayed in the wagon and was nabbed by Off, cer Mckiernan; but the chief was un- able to capture the two he went after.

 Some of the sidewalks in town are badly in need of repair, especially on the back streets, which were washed during the last freshet and have never been repaired. This is especially so of the sidewalk on Highland avenue. Some one will get injured on some of these poor walks and then the borough will have another damage suit on its hands. This matter should be seen to by the road superintendent before any thing of the kind mentioned Ioes, oc- eur.
 The matter of the Connecticut Rail- way and Power Co to stop to accOmmo- date the people of the borough and not the managers of this company, is something which should not De al- lowed to drop out of sight as quickly as that matter did. After the board of warden and burgesses passed vote 10 the effect that the cars stop to ac- commodate the public nothing more was heard of tine matter and no effort was made to enforce the measure, and the cars still continue to stop only at the white posts. This matter should De settled to the entire satisfaction of the people and not have them licking about il, as they have been doing the past winter.
