 was a good harvest this year, although in some spots it was a bad season for cranberries.
 A social gathering was held at the home of Miss Gertrude Thomas, 62
 Clark street, on Monday night. A large number of Miss Thomas's friends were present and a merry time en- sued. Dancing was held for which
 music was furnished by McLean's or chestra. Refreshments were served.
 Such merry time did everyone have
 that it was with regret that they dis
 persed at late hour.
 The street which leads from James street to Poplar avenue is in a very bad condition and unless matters are quickly remedied there some person will be injured, and then it will be up to some person to settle. About three
 weeks ago the street was washed sl- most away by rain storm. A trench | about fifty feet long, twelve feet wide 1 ana eight or ten feet deep was made in the road. There is just sufficient room for a team to pass by it. If 1 person should drive by it during the l night time the chances are that both he and his carriage would be complete l wrecks before they had advanced very l far. It is said that the street has not been repaired owing to the fact that ! there is a dispute as to the ownership of the street. Superintendent of 1 Streets Kelley is reported as having I said that the street has never been ac- cepted by the city and that it is the possession of J. Richard Smith. The
 latter says it is the city's property, and l there the matter stands. The street is sadly in need of repairs, and the re- pairs should be made at once.

IS AN ANARCHIST.
A Danbury Man in Danger of Being
 Mobbed.

Danbury, Sept 11.-"Yes. I'm an anarchist, and I can tell you of dozen more in Danbury. I knew when. President Mckinley was to have been assassinated, and I'm sorry he was not killedr' shouted a workman who is employed in the sizing room of F. c. Willard & Co.'S hat factory, yesterday. The startling remark was followed by almost q riot, and the wonder is that the man was not s'thrown into dye kettle" as one of the employees of the factory said.
 This occurrence followed a series of remarks by which the man incensed the other men in the room and made him extremely unpopular. When the news of the attempted assassination reached the factory the tidings were discussed in the sizing department, as it was everywhere in town. Indigna- tion against the assailant was express ed in no mild way, and the excitement was at its height when the man sud- denly startled the others by declaring he was glad to hear the news.
 Tt is too bad Mckinley was not kill cd instantly and I hope he will not live. Czolgosz should be given a medal for what he has done" He followed these remarks by many in the same strain and applied many foul epithets to the name of the president The indig- nation of the matters was intense but for some reason the man was not as- saulted or offered any violence.
 These remarks were repeated every day after the attempted assassination and he seemed proud of the sensation he created. Yesterday he talked in the same way and the patience of the other men gave out. 'Are you an anRrchistg asked one of the men sud denly. "Yes. I am" he replied. land 1 know a dozen more right here in Danbury who are anarchists We knew the president was to have been assassinated and we expected the news"
 Members of the firm were called to the room and the man was questioned. He reiterated his former statements and added more to them. There was talk of causing his arrest but this was not done as it was not known on what charge he could be handed over to the police. There was also talk of pun ishing him there and then but this was abandoned on the advice of the cooler ones.
 He is still working in the factory but his position is now an uncomfort- able one to say the least. He has never before made any remarks that would lead to suspicion of his anarch- istic tendencies but there is no doubt that he is earnest in the convictions he has expressed The other employees in the factory say they hope some way may be found to find the gang of an archists if there is one in Danbury.

ANOTHER CANDIDATE.
c. NJ. Allerton's Friends May Come to
 the Front

For some reason or other the repub- licans appear to be gaining courage re- garding their chances of carrying the fall elections and in consequence lit tie rivalry is beginning to crop up over the nomination for mayor. Until very recently almost all the leaders favored Alderman Blakeslee, and in fact it was practically agreed that he should lead the republican cohorts in the battle to be fought in October. But few of the wise heads have deserted the alder man from the second during the past day or two and have gone over to c. NJ Allerton, who, it is said, can have the nomination if he desires it, but whether he does or not no one seems to know. Mir Allerton is a very good citizen and probably would run about as well as anybody else the g. o. p. can trot out, but in the opinion of a large majority of the electors of this town the pace of the republican coach will be so slow this fall that the parties in the van will hardly be able to get a glimpse of the hind wheels of the dem- ocratic chariot.

tendent That lie VIII De OHUl.
 Boston Mass, Sept 1.-The life of Superintendent of Police William IL. Pierce of this city is threatened in a letter purporting to have come or that actually did come from self-styled anarchist yesterday. The activity of the police authorities apparently has aroused the anger of the anarchists and it is thought the letter is the re- suit of it.
 Early yesterday Lewis Gordon and Nathan Fingold, who by their sayings have become conspicuous since the shooting of the president, were before Superintendent Pierce. Chief Inspector Watts and Chairman Clark of the po- lice board yesterday What took place could not be ascertained. It was just after Gordon and Fingold had left the superintendent office that letter was received which said: "The next man to be shot will be yourself some day this week." The letter was signed: "An Anarchist, W. Kanteer, 1O2 Bright on street, city"
 There is a man named Kanter at the address given, but he was away yes terday. The police are tracing him.

NEW REGULATION APPROVED.
Garbage Rule Affects Only Five Towns Adjoining New Haven.

Towns Adjoining New Haven
 The state board of health held q meeting in New Haven yesterday and approved of the new health regulations
 that were submitted to the board. All
 the members of the board were present excepting President Brewer, who is in
 Denver, Col, attending the convention
 of the Society for the Advancement of
 Science, and MT Mckenzie of South
 ington.
 The board approved of all the regu-
 lations submitted. The new rule re- lating to the disposal of garbage is ap- proved only for operation in five towns
 adjoining New Haven. These are Or ange, Woodbridge, Hamden, North Ha-
 ven and East Haven. Litchfield, Tol-
 land and Middlesex counties did not de sire the rule approved so that the con- ditions in these districts did not re- quire the operation of the regulation. The towns in those counties had no ob- jection to the present conditions under which garbage is disposed of. The new garbage regulation therefore will stand only for the five towns adjoining New Haven. Hartford county, which had been foremost in the fight against l the carrying of garbage from one town l to another for some unknown reason was not represented at the meeting and none of the regulations were ap- proved for Hartford county. In con I sequence of the non-appearance of rep resentatives from Hartford county the 1 statutory sanitary laws will remain in 1 effect for that county instead of the
 new regulations. Dr Lfndsley says ! that the Hartford county people were l notified of the meeting of the state l board, but there was no one present to
 represent the county at the meeting of l the state board.
 l Special laws affecting the collection l of mussels upon the beach in Stratford and for the transportation of fertilizer l in various towns were approved by the l state board.
