POLICE COURT DoINGs
Drunkenness and Breach of the Peace
 Follows Thanksgiving.

Bernard Osborne was charged in the city court this morning with intoxica- tion and assault on Luke Finn. Had Osborne plead not guilty his appear ance and a blood-stained axe on the prosecutors desk would have belied him. His face was in terrible con- dition, swollen. battered and cut. Finn testified that he boards with Os- borne in the laters sisters boarding house at 70 South Main street. Last night Osborne got home under the in- huence of drink and tried to pick trouble with him immediately. Finn was evidently reluctant witness for every accusing word was followed by an excuse for Osborne 1t appeared, however, that Osborne picked up m axe with a short handle and struck at Finn, hitting him over the right tenn pie. It was not shown whether the blow was inflicted with the edge or the back of the axe, nor if it was a severe blow. Finn said he lodged the blow and struck at Osborne and then grappled with him, knocking him down so that his face came in contact with the floor. Only for lodging Finn would have received the full force of the blow in which case the conse- quences would have been extremely severe if not fatal. A fellow boarder bore out Finn's story. Osborne could give no account Of the affray saying that he was too drunk to remember anything about it. He started to tell of a conversation he had with Finn in a saloon at noon but it was so dis connected that it seemed to have no bearing whatsoever on the trouble. He | v0yocy c4e, r !

 Burned.
 Miss Etta Smith of Forestviiie died at the Hartford hospital last night from burns. She was about 90 years old and for the past few years had been housekeeper for Alvin Taplin of Forestville Mir Taplin is in Florida at present and Miss Smith was taking care of tho house and living there dur ing his n1'sence. Yesterday morning she was hnating the sitting room with a large Rochester lamp which was on the floor Shortly after P o'clock she passed hv the lamp and her dress caught on it and upset it. There was large quantity of kerosene oil in the reservoir and as it spilled out upon the floor it took fire and her dress caught from the flames
 Miss Smith ran to the door and called for assistance which came in few minutes. but not until the clothing on the lower part of her body was burned from her. Although she had made desperate efforts to extinguish the fiames-she was terribly burned be- fore help arrived. Her limbs and the lower part of her body were badly burned Dr c. M. Kent of Forestville and Dr IT. IT. Desmarais of Bristol were called and gave temporary relief, and it was decided to take her to the hospital The mon who reached the house prevented it's burning down, though the sitting room was ablaze. Miss Smith was well known in Bristol and formerly lived in the :Whigville district.

AT JACQUES TOMORROW.
Major Lamb of the Salvation Army
 Will Speak to Men.

Major Alexander Lamb, the new representative of the American Salva- tion Army for Connecticut and Vest ern Massachusetts, will be the the speaker at the mems meeting ill Jac- ques' opera house tomorrow after noon. Although the major comes to Waterbury with a more responsible po- sition in the Army he is not an entire stranger in the city, having made his first visit to the city when the local Army work was organized more than ten years age.
 Major Lamb has occupied various important fields i'll the Army work and is regarded as one of the most gifted of American officers. He is a well edu- cated man and versatile public speaker. His public utterances have been not only before Salvation Army audiences, but in some of the largest churches in America. During his vis- it to Waterbury he will conduct lthe services, morning and evening, at the First Baptist church.
 Major Lamb was a student in the Northwestern university of Evanston, Chicago, when he first became inter- ested in the Army work and offered himself as an officer. When accepted he went to London and spent some time in the old country, returning to Amer ica later to take up the regular work in this country.
 Major Lamb speaks next Sunday in place of Major Elgar of New York city, who was obliged to undergo an opera tion at Roosevelt hospital, New York, making it impossible for him to fulfill his engagement at this time, though he will doubtless visit Waterbury at some later date.
 Miss Kingsley of the Second church choir will render vocal solos.

 MANILA, Nov. 29-C -Constabulary Inspector Hendryx, who has been sta toned in Samar island, was killed last Tuesday by band of ladrones. The reports regarding his death are meager and indicate that Hendryx was at tackled by a superior force of ladrones. His detachment of constabulary was routed, and Hendryx, with one soldier, was surrounded and killed.
 The sultan of Bacolod, after pro- fessing friendship for America, has written letter to Captain Pershing, at Camp Wears, in which he calls Ameri- cans .'hogs who eat hogs" and chal- lenges them to fight. 1t is probable that Captain Pershing will be ordered to take column to Bacolod. The mill tary men, however, doubt whether the sultan will really fight.

All the mem- bers of the club have been notified to be on hand at Blanchard's restaurant at 9 o'clock.

It is to be a rous- ing supper and great will be the stories that are on the program for telling.

CHAMBERLAIN SUPPORTERS ARE
NOT INSANE.

Geo. Il. Chamberlain has made a
clean and gentlemanly campaign--far
more so than the Republicans who
published charges to drive Geer out
Of their state convention. He (Cham-
berlain) has reflected on the personali-
ty Of no candidate or or no Republican,
and aspersions OF Furnish papers
about insane people supporting him
come with very poor grace from a par
ty in which scarcely any two promi-
nent leaders are on speaking terms
with each other, on account of the
mean things they have said Of each
other-and some OF them are true, by
grab. The slurs that are aimed at the
character Of the people who are sup
porting Chamberlain are not worthy Of
notice, and will not be found to influ-
ence Republicans who prefer the sani-
ty that comes with clean politics to
the insanity of Doodle methods. The
Journal in its fight TO put all officials
on a fiat salary has never reflected on
the character of a single state official.
1t has attacked a system that has
grown into a gigantic abuse underlying
all other abuses in the state govern
ment and legislature. II has not at.
tackled individuals. and Mr. Chamber.
lain has made non-partisan cam

In the sherin's otfce, and has gained
a knowledge OF our county affairs that
will be valuable.
He has thrown his influence with the
conservative elements OF the commu-
nifty to secure good city county and
school government
While he is charged with being a ST.
mon man there is no proof that he
tried TO shut out every aspirant for
nomination who was not Simon

legislative scandals. whatever may
happen In the future. II ne is ever
concerned in making some one United
States senator he will not scandalize
his friends and the party,
