BROOKLYN BRIEFS

Manager George Callan of the Town Plot Stars basket ball team would like to arrange game with the Green Peas of the Y. M. c. A.
 Michael Murphy returned last even ing from Greystone, where he had been searching the woods for game for two days. He did not have the best of luck and did not violate the game laws in regard to the quantity of game that may be captured in one day.
 --The manager of the New York clothing store is mourning the damage caused to handsome new display case which was not able to withstand the wintry squalls and attempted to join the wind in it's rapid flight. It was not very successful in this move and it fell with a crash to the side walk and the glass was broken to pieces. At the same time the caps and ties which were enclosed ill the case gained their freedom and were blown in all directions by the wind. The manager of the store presented an amusing sight as he gave chase to hls flying stock. What his feel ings were can be better imagined than described. But he succeeded in get ting all his goods, and that was q. slight consolation.
 The following squib is from the Torrington Register: 'John Bagley of Waterbury, who for several years cap tained the Villanova college football eleven, and who acted as coach for .he same organization during the past sea son, is expected to arrive in Torrington this evening or tomorrow morning to take charge of the T. A. E. aggrega- tion. Manager Cronin intends to leave nothing undone towards getting the eleven into the best of condition for the annual encounter with the Win sted team on Thanksgiving day, and this is but one of the moves calculated to strengthen the locals for that battle. Winsted, too. it is understood, is malz- ing preparations for the contest, and from reliable sources 1t has been learned that Francis Hoffman, last years fullback, who is at present a
 member of the St Thomas Cadets of Waterbury, has been engaged for that date to fill that position for Winsted." The best crowd yet was present at the St patrick's fair last evening.
 Among those who did the fair last night were Alderman Mahaney. Town Clerk Brett, Constable Donahue, Con- tractor Finn. Mrs Norah l.. Luddy, Mrs Mitchell. Timothy, John. Peter, Norah, Katherine. Bridget and Annie
 Luddy, Michael Clancy, John Globes sey, Patrick l.. Loughman and Patrick Quinn. Tie stage entertainment this evening will be given under the aus
 pices of the Brooklyn A. c. The pro-
 gram is as follows: Wilson Tessier,
 slack wire speciality; Joseph Rivers. human snake act; Louis Baker. human frog act. The members of the club
 will attend the fair in body tonight.

IN SEARCH OF WORK.
Walking About the Country Until
 Nearly Famished


 Footsore and discouraged, John Me Mahon and wife entered the emergen- cy hospital yesterday afternoon and asked Superintendent of Poor J. V. Brennan to furnish them place to sleep for the night, says the Bridge port Telegram. Both man and wife were born in Ireland and have been ill this country only since last June.
 Yesterday in the face of n cold. bleak wind the couple walked from Milford to Westport in search of en- ployment and, being unsuccessful. walked back again to this city. The woman was nearly exhausted from the long walk and lack of food. The cou- pie were taken out to q nearby res taurant and given hearty meal. after which they returned to the hospital to await the action of Superintendent Brennan.
 The woman said she and her hus band had no relatives in this country excepting a cousin of hers residing in New York, but she didn't know hls address. After talking the matter over the couple agreed if transporta- ton was furnished them as far as New York they would try to find the cousin or else seek employment in the big city.
 The man is 2S years of age and the woman is just past her 2Jth birthday. They have been married for four years, and while in Ireland managed to get a fair living, but thought that their chance would be better in this country. They accordingly saved enough money to take passage to this country and landed in Castle Garden last June.
 They stayed in New York looking for work until their funds were ex- hausted and then commenced to walk through Connecticut in search of en- ployment. They managed to secure q position on small farm in Milford and remained there until few days ago, when they were let go, as the will ter had set ill and there was no more work for them to do. They heard of a farmer in Westport wanting a man and wife, and so withoul food they walked to that place yesterday from Milford, only to arrive there and be told that the place had just been sup- piled.
 The long walk back to this city was then resumed, and when the couple entered the emergeincy, hospital they were almost exhausted from hunger and their exposure to the cold. They ulu not go 10 New 1Ork iaSt evening as was expected, owing to the fact that well known business man heard of their predicament and secured them a room at n hotel, where they might rest in comfort over night.
 This morning the man is going to look for a position. and if he is sue | cessful he says he can get along in the world, but without work and funds ] to support his wife he becomes dis couraged. 1t is hoped that his search 1 for employment will end and good for tune may follow the son of Erin that 1 journeyed to this country to better himself and wife.

SHORTAGES SETTLED.
Discrepancies in the Account of Col

lector Anthony Made Good.
 New Haven. Nov 14.-The shortages revealed by Expert Hendricks examin- ation of the affairs of Tax Collector Frank Anthony's office has been set tied by MT Anthony paying S1,oOO, which is a compromise, the amount of the shortage being something over S3, ,0OO.
 Expert Hendricks report showed a discrepancy of $2,T23.94, and also an additional $2,3SO. which MT Anthony paid some time ago. The former sum he refused to settle because he claim ed that the shortage did not belong to his administration of the tax office.
 The shortage of S2,723.94, shown by Mir Hendricks report, had existed since about 1895. MT Anthony, in Jan- uary, 1895. was treasurer of the town,
 and also of the Westyille school dis trict and tax collector of the city. He
 succeeded Tax Collector Futile
 Mir Anthony claimed that he had paid over every dollar received, and
 that he had no money that belonged to the city
 From the books Of the department 1t could not be ascertained whether tle shortage was caused before or since that time. Accordingly Corporation Counsel Daggett suggested that if it was acceptable to the board of fiE-
 ance, he would agree to a settlement of the s2, zoo claim for S1 900. The board of finance approved of the action.
 Mir Hendricks report showed ill ad- dition that on December z, 1897, when the city and town governments were consolidated and the new charter went into effect MT Anthony had not 1 turned over all daily receipts to tie I city treasurer, as provided, ana that large amounts appeared in the New l Haven County National bank on de-
 posit in the name of +. c. Anthony, 1 tax collector.
 The account included q considerable sum, of which some belonged to the 1 Westyille school district, which was being held there, payable on that ac- | count
 1 Since November, 1900, no balance from day to day between the tax col lector and city treasurer has occurred. Corporation Counsel Dagge:t stated 1 to-day that the only money due Ite city in this matter was interest, which the city did not get, nor did MT An thony It will take an exhaustive eX- animation to ascertain this amount at
 any one time, and during ali of the I time, as the amount on deposit was continually changing, so the matter
 was compromised for $500. The entire sum paid over by Nr An 1 thony is thus $1, ,500.
