It's Pure, That's Sure.

The Hygeia Ice company, in connec- tion with the Hellman Brewing Co.,, is now ready for business and is turning day. This ice is manufactured from 77rlter secured from artesian wells and is absolutely pure. Ice in ones refrig- orator now is considered a necessity and not luxury, as it used to be; and nearly everyone appreciates now the value of the absolutely pure article.
 The enterprise of the Hellman people is shown in this instance as it has been in others since falling to the able man agement of w. D. Richardson, whose ambition is to have the most perfect brewing plant in New England.
 It is said that there is no such thing as impure ice-that impure water puri- fled itself in freezing. But this is not true, as it has been conclusively proven that typhoid and other germs exist in ice taken from certain ponds, and the authorities have stopped the sale of it for any other use than that of cold stor- age. With the new plant, however, Waterbury has pure ice and at a lower cost too than the natural article. And it is expected that soon it will be even cheaper still.
 The working man who now takes glass of water with lump of the Hygeia ice in it should drink to the prosperity of the Hellman Brewing company as well as to his own health and happiness.

the other day relative to Waterbury
 politics: "Lilley is making himself 1 popular over the whole state and is spending money like water. Now he has some object in view because he
 never put out a dollar in his life unless
 he could see two dollars coming back. l However I think he has forgotten his
 Waterbury heeiers in his anxiety to
 make himself strong all over the state. l A man should be solid at home before 1 he looks for favor abroad. He must carry the town before he does the
 country. I know he won by a big
 majority last year, but the conditions
 were all with him. Never again will
 he have such an easy mark as that dead
 one, M. J. Byrne."
 For the benefit of Byrne The Exam iner man desires to say that Lilley is
 strong here in Waterbury. He has on
 his staff, Burpee, Kellogg, Carter and Durant, who are the real wise ones among the Republicans. Burpee gets $2, ,O00 and Durant $1, ,500 a year for what they know. Kellogg gets 4,5OO year for doing a little work and the rest for his knowledge of politics. Car ter draws $1 200 year for being a faith ful worker. We think this is all good evidence of political wisdom. Lilley can depend on these four to hand him out anything he wants in Waterbury,
 If he should need certain delegation he has only to go to Durant who could land it for him. This gray headed, smooth faced youngster is the real fox of the whole bunch. For political astuteness he is above them all. He can trim you right and proper with a smile on his face and then you lay it all to somebody else. The best proof of his strength is in the number of his deadly enemies. These runners spread ugly stories last fall about him and together with the snobs in the Waterbury club it showed him under when he ran for senator. But he bobs up serenely again apparently stronger than ever.
 Right here The Examiner man wants to say that it would be a good thing for Durant if somebody would beat him hard with club every time he goes in for politics. We have always been in terested in Harry and want to see him succeed, but he ought to keep out of politics. Coming here unknown ten years ago, the son of an obscure hotel keeper, he has hustled until today he is rich If he would attend to business solely he would have a fortune of at least six figures before many years would have passed. No, Lilley is all right in Waterbury as long as these four are with him and he has done too much for them to have them desert him.

Right andLeft Cigars.

It is not always because cigar is badly made that the wrapper culs up and works off. It is often because a right-handed man is smoking left handed cigar. A "left-handed cigar" is one rolled by the makers left hand, for all cigar makers must be ambidex- trous. A piece of tobacco for the wrap per is cut on the bias and is rolled from left to right on the filler. The other piece, for reasons of economy, is then used, and must be rolled the opposite way by the operators other hand. Hence smoker who holds his cigar in his right hand sometimes twisting it about rubs the wrapper the wrong way snd loosens it.

Speaking of the Mayoralty Contest.

The Democrats are having such a fight for mayor that the public seems to have lost sight of the state of things in the Republican camp. Apparently mat ters there are all harmony and Blakes- lee seems to be the favored one. It is said that Waterbury's philanthropist, for such he surely is, can have the nom- ination if he wants it and it is odds on that he does. The names of Chesson, Earl Smith, F. E. Cross, W. L. Hall and George l.. Lilley have also been mentioned but without setting the town on fire. Chesson's health would not permit him taking part in an arduous campaign and the politicians have no use for Earl Smith, who by the way is called eccentric. 1" If he were poor he would be called sscrunk" and that's s just what he is. F. B. Cross could not afford the expense of municipal cam paign but he deserves the nomination as he is an old Republican war-horse. w. l.. Hall could not be elected and Lilley could only defeat Dr. Hayes. All this Ao WhoSG 6ho u1CAy UIuS Say puG Gu6Io may be some truth in it at that. Lilley IS unquestionably the strongest man in local Republican politics and he could get the nomination in a jump. His money and his shrewdness have put him in the political game for fair and now that he has got the busy bee in his bon net he proposes to keep it no matter what it costs him.e So they who would trade horses. with. the King of Quassa- paug had better watch out.
 This is the way 8 man sized up Lilley

A Case of Assured Kleptomanla.

Woodbury gossips have had the choicest scandal to discuss that the old town has offered in many a year. The wife of tone of the foremost cit izens, whose reputation has hitherto never been questioned has been arrest ed for stealing chickens, and her cow ardly husband has deserted her in her hour of sorest need, even going so far as to seek a divorce. As the woman has had everything that she could desire at home she certainly didn t steal chickens for their value, so it must be conceded that she was suffering from that form of insanity known as ''kleptomania. ; And instead of deserting her it would seem as if worthy husband would be at her side to rescue and to comfort her. He should not take the matter to heart so much, as cases of the kind are not so very infrequent. Evidently the woman is more subject of pity than an object of blame.

Solons of the Booze Mill.

It would be Imaginable if it wasn't so disgusting, to see the gangs of small politicians as they gather on the street corners and to listen to their converse tion as they discuss the situation. Every old bum is politician these days, and each one of them 'tknows it alp while predicting that the country will go to Sheol if certain nominations are not made and the candidates elected. Yet the principal thing that they are most interested in is the quantity of sbooze'' obtainable on election day, when the saloons are supposed to be all closed

Those Pestiferous sleepbreakers.

A good deal has been said about the milkman nuisance of the early morning so much that those who have not suf- fered look upon it as good deal like the servant girl joke; but this is not so. It has grown to be an almost unbearable nuisance, and these 'clod -hoppers' seem to take particular delight in awakening everyone within hearing distance. They are not satisfied with the chatter made by their cans, but must shout, whistle and sing, if such noise can be dignif1ed with that name. It is hard enough to get to sleep at all some of these nights, without being awakened by these pestiferous creatures from a refreshing doze. There's a city ordi- nance somewhere bearing on this mat ter, but it evidently seems to have been forgotten by those whose duty it is to see to it's enforcement.

but she knows how to get out Of difficulty
with the least possible friction"

down four flights of stairs will not believe
that Miss Alexander chooses the line Of
