 F. x. Bergen of Baldwin street stopped a runaway horse on East Main street this morning and in so doing probably saved the life of the man in the team as well as that of others who were about the street at the time The animal was heading toward the center at pretty good clip when MT Bergen got hold of the bridle near T. H. Hayes's cafe and held onto him with all his might. The horse pulled him almost into Exchange place before he could bring him to a standstill. The traces were broken and the fellow in the vehicle was powerless to help him. self. It was a brave stop and all who saw it declared that Bergen should be given q medal
 Joseph Hayden, bricklayer, was on the roof of Bolan's building yesterday when it fell in and injured Edward Bergen. Hayden escaped with q bruised heel. This was his second es- cape from receiving injuries in this manner, and when he found the ground slipping from under his feet, so to speak, he sprang for the outer edge of the roof, and grasped a beam above his head. In this position he es- capped the crash of the falling timbers. Ills descent was slow and but for the bruise on his right foot received by a heavy stick falling against 1t, he es- capped without q scratch. Had he re- mained in his first position we would have received serious injuries.

To say nothing about the demand for money it isn't fair to people who do pay. # is estimated that there are over 5000 dogs in Waterbury. Probably one fifth of the owners will call at the town clerks office and settle. A few hundred more may be scared into reg istering their CUTS. As usual, it IS presumed, the rest will take their chances
