 The large audience which was present at the entertainment given at the Third Congregational church last evening under the auspices of the Happy Hour Temple, enjoyed an even ing of rare pleasure The different characters were enacted in a manner which fascinated the hearts of those present. The enactment of the diff ferent roles showed that the perform CTS had been carefully drilled and in- structed. The different drills were very pretty and were received with great applause. The tableaux were also delightfully."- pleasing. After the entertainment ice cream and cake were served. The entire affair was great success and the management ought to feel happy today that tie entertan- ment passed off so smoothly.
 The third ward has much at stake i'll the coming election contest. The present administration has little more than made commencement upon the proposed extensive storm water drain age system which Mayor Kilduff has mapped out for the district A DOT ton of the work is now completed and unless we have a change of adn1inis- tration the system will be perfected in another year or so. That portion of the third ward lying between West Main and Bank streets has suffered considerably the past few years on ac- count of surface water and the prop erty owners there should take special interest in Mondays election and see that the democratic candidates for al- dermen are elected. Don't be misled by what the politicians tell you about republican candidates from the ward. As men they are ali right, but as pub- lie officials they are subject to the dis- cipline of their party and it is a no- torious fact that the republicans ney- CT worried over the welfare of this dis trict Vote the whole democratic tick ct.
 -only few days remain before the electors of Waterbury will be called upon to vote for their choice for city and town officials during the coming term. Both parties have selected their candidates and the battle Is now
 raging. The leaders on both sides are { working earnestly. but it is already an l acknowledged fact that Mayor KiIduff and his associates on the city ticket and Selectmen Doran and Disley and the remainder of the town ticket will be reelected. But the democrats should not feel too confident Apathy should not be allowed to exist within the democratic camp. Every demo- crat should employ his best efforts so
 that there will not be the least doubt that we shall have democratic ad- ministration. But democratic board of aldermen is also needed In the ] third ward the democratic party is l stronger to-day than it ever was. Tue chances of electing at least one and l probably more. democratic aldermen 1 from this ward are bright William
 Disley is man of wide popularity. He is a man of business, of ripe ex.
 perience, man who would ably rep- | resent the third ward in the alderman- | ic chamber. He would have the inter-
 ests of every taxpayer in the third ward at heart. He would see to it
 that this ward would receive it's prop- CT share of Improvements. Such a
 man should and will be elected if the democrats will work slightly harder than in past years. Let every dem-
 ocratic voter in the third ward be sure
 and cast his vote on election day for the straight democratic ticket. In the lifourth ward there is some talk of an | effort being made to elect Cornelius
 Tracy, one of the republican candi- dates for alderman. If he intends to
 defeat either one of the three demo- 1 cratic candidates, John Brophy, Ste- phen OBrien and James Murray, he will have to poll one of the largest i votes that was ever boiled for any
 candidate in the fourth
