BOARD OF ALDERMEN
Few Interested Parties Ventured to
 the Hearing Last Night.

lue i-dSI -NlShl.
 The aldermen met last night for the purpose of hearing parties interested in the matter of consolidation. Be sides Chairman Hall there were pres sent Aldermen Morris, Tyrrell, White, Cross, Walker, Goss and Blakeslee The weather coupled with an indiffer- ence regarding the fate of the measure had a bad effect upon the attendance, but twd or three persons asking for :l hearing and some of these had an inning at the previous session. Will liam Tyler was opposed to consolida- tion, principally because he could not see how the tax question could be settled to the satisfaction of people who live in the city and those on the outside. He explained some of the disadvantages farmers have to con tend with in this state and when he got through not an alderman present could be induced to accept farm as q present. MT Tylet was of the opin- ion, however. that better school facilities ought to be opened to the children in the outside districts. Will liam Butler of City Mills wants to give the city q wide berth. He is ill the added district and has been practi. cally robbed of house and home since that law was passed. He declared that he never lost a chicken until the policemen commenced to patrol the section he lives in. Herbert A. Tullar thought Waterville aud Simonsville should each have a representative in the board of aldermen. City Attorney Kellogg and Alderman Goss talked upon certain sections of the draft for the information of those present, after which the board adjourned for one week.

FORECLOSURE PROCEEDINGS.
Two Cases Received Attention in Short
 Calendar To-Day.

Short calendar in tine district court to-day was remarkable in some sense; there were five motions for Judgments for foreclosures down to be disposed of. Never before were there so many mo- tions of this nature on the short cal endar docket It is singular that not withstanding the evident prosperous condition of business in general in Waterbury during the past few years there should be so many people unable to pay the interest on their property, not to mention taxes and q part oI the principal. This was commented upon by many of the lawyers, for while such q state of affairs brought busi- ness to them it still indicated a bad condition of things. Judge Cowell pre- sided.
 The foreclosure proceedings of the Waterbury Savings bank against Joseph Hosea. ct al., for $1 .92 were left unfinished on account of the ab- sence of Attorney F.. M. Peaseley, counsel for one of the defendants. At torney U. c. Church was appointed guardian ad litem over Ellen Hosea, q minor. Judgment for foreclosure was grated the Waterbury Savings bank against the Hebrew Congregational society, ct al.. for S6.397 32. This in- cltldes taxes and interest. There is misunderstanding between the origi- nal owners of the property and the Hebrew society regarding the taxes. When the defendant took possession of the property it is claimed they also took up all the taxes that were then due. Law days begin on Aprli 15 for | the defendant named above.
 Foreclosure was also allowed Cath l crime Munger against Samuel $. Taylor | for $3,572.5O. Law days begin April l. The property involved is situated at 9J Wolcott street.
 Other cases for foreclosure and which went over to next week are as follows: The Wa | terbury Lumber and Coal company | against Mary Yukeleum; Nathaniel k. Bronson against Henry A. Truw, ct | al; the City Lumber and Coal com l pany against Thomas IF. Russell, ct al; Nancy NI Abbott against A. B. l Anderson, ct al; Waterbury Lumber and Coal company against A. Nathan Brown: John F. Gallagher against Michael Woods, ct al; and Julius Chotzianoff against Samuel Chotzian- off, ct al.
 l made: Thursday, January IT, Scopiano against Delowry; January IS. City of Waterbury against M. A. Dougherty; January 19, Wass against Magner; January P. Eagle Lock com pany against Carl Noak. In the mat
 ter of the second will left by the late
 Edward s. Smith. who was connected
 with the Smith & Griggs company of
 Simonsville, and which will was said
 to have been discovered by tho Farm
 CTS Loan and Trust company of New
 York and in which that concern was
 named eXecutor, Judge Cowen decid-
 ed this morning in the probate court that the above named concern was in
 capable of executing the trust reposed
 in it by the. will. In other words that | will was disapproved. Later there I will be hearing on the appointment | of an administrators. ...

that the safest thing for him to do was to get rid of it altogether. and in
 q few minutes it was reduced to ashes in the stove. When his wife returned
 the first thing she looked for was the apron. but somehow she couldn't find it. She was positive that it hung on a chair beside the table when she went out, but her husband didn't see how that could be, for no one came Ill or left the house while she was away. He told her not to mind it then, adding that she'd run across it by and by when she would not be thinking of 1t. It went at that for the time. but later she turned everything in the house upside down but found no trace of 1t. And she's hunting for it still, but we have a strong suspicion that shell never think of looking in the right place, and, anyway, perhaps she would not recognize it if she saw 1t now. Some men are very useful in the house, but others are so awkward that they cannot pour a cup of tea or conee without running the risk Of scaldlng themselves or somebody else. It comes in handy now and then for 2 fellow to know how to cook, but 1t is danger ops occupation, for once womnn sfirAs ovt that her husband can do that kind Of work she Is apt to give him sEnoFe than he wants of it.
