!, affairs has been brought about by
the death of Mrs. Jackson Myers, the
wife of the assistant manager of the

evening.
Mrs. Myers recently returned from
a visit to Pittsburg. and 1t is thought
that she contracted the disease while

came i'll and Friday morning it was
decided that hers was a case of small
pox DR.. Corlett, an expert of Cleve-
land. was summoned Friday morning
He pronounced the case one of the
most virulent form and said there
was no hope for her recovery. Mrs.
Myers died in the evening and was
buried at once.
+ Prompt measures were taken by the
Alliance authorities when it developed
that smallpox had broken out. A
guard was thrown about the hotel

and was captured in front of the post
office. Shortly afterwards one of the
chambermaids started from the hotel
and hid herself in neighborine

indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 15,-Switch-
men in the employ of the Bfg -Four
railway met with General Superin-

submitted request for increased pay.
They based their demands on the fact
that the railroads are enjoying general
prosperity and are therefore, able to
pay their employees better wages. The
belief Is that a small increase will be
granted by Mr.. VanWinkle. because
of the recognized fact that the cost
of living Is higher.

A Suspicious Case Brought to
 Light in Willimantic.

Woman Now in Jail the Suspect An
 other Woman's Suspicious Death Is E Given as Cause for Holding Her
 The One Now Held Is Said to Have
 Purchased Poison Very Recently,
 WEillimantic, Dec 19.--Coroner Bill of .Danielson came to this city to-day for the purpose of Investigating some stor- ies bearing on the actions of Mrs Sarah Manson, who is now held ill Brooklyn jail because of suspicious circum- stances in connection with the death of Mrs Julia A. Wilson of Ashford last Saturday,. The coroner said he was uncertain whether the inquest, which was begun in Ashford yesterday, would be continued to-day. He said that he would first investigate several matters and that it was possible that the inquest might be continued to-day in Willimantic. It is understood that one of the points which he will inves- tigate concerns the alleged purchase of poison in this city last July by Mrs Manson.
 The report of the Hartford physi- clan who has portions of the stomach and intestines of Mrs Wilson for ex- animation has not yet been received by the coroner, but it is expected very shortly.

Valuable waste Paper.

In the treasury department greater care is required in the removal of waste paper than in any other gov ernment office. All waste paper in the treasurer's office is. inspected by a special waste paper inspector, whose duty it is to discover any val uable document that may have been carelessly misplaced. It is then sent to the waste paper room in the sub- basement, where all the contents of the wicker baskets are separated into three pi1es-pa pasteboard and brown paper, and white paper. Two women do this work year in and year out. A month ago check for $8,2o0 was found in the waste paper room. From eight to ten tons of rubbish are removed daily. It is sold to the highest bidder, and the income to the government from this source is: abou l. $1,200 year.-Was shington Times.

ANNIE MAzUKA WON HER SUIT TODAY
PAIR OF HORSES ON RAMPAGE.
Started from South Elm Street and
 Brought Up at Simonsville.

A pair of horses belonging to Baker J. $. French of 300 South Main street
 made things. rather lively along sev-
 eral of the main streets near the cen
 ter this morning about F o'clock. The
 horses, which were attached to q bak-
 cry wagon, became frightened at
 something while the driver, Frederick
 Parsons, was delivering goods to a
 customer on the lower part of South
 Elm street. They dashed away at a
 fast clip along South Elm street. As
 they turned the corner onto East Main street the wagon struck the curbing at Stanley park and was Smashed into splinters. Only the four wheels and la little rigging were left. Pics, cakes and rolls flew ill all directions. The horses continued down East Main street into Exchange place, many teams and pedestrians having narrow escapes from being injured. Through
 Exchange place onto West Main the horses went. On West Main street the wagon, or the remnants of it, struck trolley car, but little damage was done Down West Main street, crossing in front of two trolley cars, 1 the horses kept on, turning into Church street. From Church they went to Grand and down Grand onto South Main street, increasing their speed all the time. They were mak- ling straight line for Castles market Iwhen they made a sharp swerye and went down South Main street. It
 was about noon hour and the street
 was crowded with teams and gedes-
 trians. It was wonderful thatSMD col lisions occurred. The horses contin-
 ued their mad pace until they reached Smith SS Griggs' factory in Simons- vile, where they were stopped. It
 was the most exciting runaway which
 has occurred in this city in some time.

DEMOCRATS MUST ORGANIZE
Or the Party Will Be a Party Only in
 Name.


 It looks as if the democratic party in Waterbury should take steps to have primaries called for the purpose of electing committee to prepare rules to govern future deliberations of delegates chosen by that party to nom mate candidates for public office. It lis admitted on all sides that something of this kind will have to be done be- fore the party will have anything like an organization that can do work with the assurance that it cannot be disre- garded whenever someone comes along who might be willing to make trouble | in the hope of advancing his own or somebody else'S interest. 1t is not too soon to take hold of this matter now and if party managers cannot agree as to details the state commit ltee should be asked to decide all dis lputed questions By moving in that direction now much confusion will be Iavoided at the next city election. If things should remain as they now are until next fall it would hardly pay I the democrats to hold primaries, for lit seems they have no primary laws that members of the party are obliged to respect.
