 Thefe will be special meeting of the Democratic association this even ing at their hall on Grand street. All members requested to attend.
 Court Rose Hill, No 91. r. of A., held their regular quarterly meeting last night Three new members were initiated. The election of delegates for the state convention were as follows: First delegate. Mago .Sheehan; second delegate, William Clasby; first alter nate, Andrew Leary; second alternate, John Leary. Business was very lively and everything went off well. e
 Selectman Doran and Town Attor- ney Carmody went to Hartford yes terday to attend the hearing regarding the bridging of the Naugatuck river above Waterville, and when they ar rived there they were informed that the hearing had been postponed There appears to be something mys- terious in this bridge question. The selectmen were notified to attend a hearing for d bridge at this point. the expense to be borne by the counties or Litchfield and New Haven. but at the Capitol they were informed that the cost of the proposed bridge is to De met bN tlle tow II ol " bui ' anu 'A'N, county of New Haven. Some of the Litchtield people were there and stated that they had not been notified to be present at the hearing. so that it is not at all likely that the framers of the bill did not intend to have lltch- field county pay anything towards doing the work else they would have been cited to be heard in the premises. As yet no date has been fixed for the adjourned hearing. but the committee will notify the selectmen when the matter is to come up and from all ac- counts quite a few Waterbury people will attend and protest against half the cost being saddled onto the town of Waterbury. It is understood that the hearing was postponed at the re- quest of Representative George l.. LiL ley, who could not be present yester- day, and as he is said to be behind the measure of course the airing could not be held in his absence.

North Lawrence, Aug. 14.-At 1
o'clock Wednesday morning the fam.
lily of John Morgan was awakened
by smoke, which had filled the rooms.
Mr.. Morgan, his wife and children
clad only in their night clothing.
rushed to the front door and escaped
The lower portion of the house was
also filed with flames and in short
time egress would have been cut of
Only a few articles of furniture were
saved and the house was burned to
the ground. The los is estimated at
$1,000 with $50 insurance. The fire
started in the rear of the house and is
thought to have been started by a
brand falling on the roof during the
earlier confagration. There was no
fire in any portion Of the house and
the origin can be explained in on other
way. When the neighborhood was
aroused the flames had made such pro.
gress that it was impossible to check
them and an effort was confined to
saving as much of the furniture as
possible. The residence was located
about 300 yards from the Johnson store
where the big fire of the early part Of
the night had broken out.

Canal Dover. o.. Aug. 14.-There IL
practically no change in the strike
situation. The. Analgamated lodges
Of Tuscarawas county met in this city
yesterday afternoon, and by a unani-
mout vote decided to ignore the notices
posted by the trust, requesting the for
mer employees to report not later than
Thursday. August 15. One Of the
union men openly declared his inten-
tion to go back to work on Thursday.
and has been surrounded by strikers
pleading with him not to desert them.
The strikers do not appear as con-
fident of ultimate success as thcy
have heretofore. The threat of tho
trust to remove the tin mills and tho
actual dismantling of the big McKees.
port mills have had disheartening
effect on the strikers, and 1t would not
be at all surprising II number would
comply with the request to report ON
Thursday not withstanding the vote
of the association.
The crisis in the strike will prob
ably occur on Friday or Saturday.
when the trust will attempt to bring
men here to operate the mills.
