 J. E. SEWELI4, General Manager
 Several applications for plumbers IL censes were received. The board de- cided to let these go over until some future meeting and passed vote in structing the clerk to notify the appli- cants that from this time forward at least two sureties must accompany the applications, and that the bond will be double the amount heretofore required, making it $6,000 for permission to make excavations in the streets and $1 900 for plumbers license. This ap- plies to firms and individuals that have been granted a renewal of li- censes since January 1, 1902.
 The superintendent of streets was instructed to order the owner of the property on Vine street east side, di- rectly north of the Gilmore place, to repair the sidewalk in front of the premises. The superintendent of streets reported relative to an alleged defective walk at the corner of Bald win and Rye streets, that it was noth- ing the city was responsible for, ex- cept, perhaps, that it might not have pushed the owner hard enough about it. He said he would keep it in mind and see that it was attended to as soon as the weather permits.
 George E. Case was heard regarding a water main in Oak street. and Peter F. Coughlan spoke on the need of proper outlet from Southview street, and also called attention to the fact that some of the big corporations about town are not asked to clean their walks. while q strict watch is kept upon walks owned by private indiyid- uals. The engineer was requested to report on the South View matter at the next meeting, and Commissioner Ma haney stated that petition was being nrepared regarding sidewalks on Washington avenue and South Main street, which will be presented to the city government within a week.
 Pavrolls were read and approved. and read as follows: Water depart- ment S510, additional water supply S19S25. stret department S1.19612. sewer department S145.S3. roads in first district s174.95, engineering de partment S46932.

POLICE COURT DoINGs.
Alfred Harper Charged With Non-sup-
 port This Morning.

Alfred Harper Charged With Non-Sup-
 port This Morning.
 Alfred Harper, the dance prompter. was before Judge Burpee in the city court to-day charged with non-support of his wife and family. Harper is known to all the city by reason of his nocturnal vocation. His usual place of diurnal employment is at the Scovill Manufacturing company'S factory. Mrs Harper said that four months ago her husband left her cn account of an- other woman whom she did not hesi- tate to say was Miss Esquinbaugh, ''who sends me sassy letters,'' said Mrs Harper. ''I have seen them go around together and hespends too much of his time with her altogether" Mrs Harper further said that All Hallow's night her husband left her. and since then he has sent her S3 a week until recently. Har- per. who looked as though he had just left the dancing floor. stated that all his wife said was false. He has had trOu- ble with her and her people since their marriage He left her three times but lately has sent her S3 q week until q week ago to-day. Then he lost his job. He heard this morning q warrant was cut for his arrest and surrendered him. scif
 Prosecutor Durant stated that Super intendent Combellack of the Boys club had investigated the Harpers' troubles for the children's sake. and found the wife's story correct in the main. Judge Rurpee continued the case for week, informing Harper to do better or he would suffer.
 Mrs Jennie Durand was charged with keeping q house of i'll fame on Bald win street. Joseph Dube, Arthur Der ger and John AIcCoul were charged with being frequenters of the place. NIcCoul and Berger pleaded guilty. From the evidence of Policemen Brearton, Claffey and Phelan, Mrs Du rand has borne a doubtful reputation for some time It followed her from Maple street to 304 Baldwin street, and for the six weeks she has been in the latter place it was worth watching by the police Numerous instances of apparent violations of the law were cited. This evidence was bad enough, but the clinching point was turned by the woman's son. Fred Durand. who appeared to be about IS years old. He openly stated that his mother turned him out of the Maple street house. which she conducted as an unlawful place He also said that she gets drunk and neglects the children, one of whom is only two months old. The father is dead. Mrs Durand was sen fenced to 30 days in jail and fined $25 and costs, and Dube and Berger were fined S1O and costs each and McCoul $5 and costs.

IRA sANKEY's ESCAPE.
Caught in Fire at sanitarium, But
 Found a Way to Safety.

Caught in Fire at Sanitarium, But
 Found Way to Safety.
 Battle Creek, Mich, Feb 19.-Early yesterday the large Adventist sanitari, um and hospital buildings located here were destroyed by fire. causing a loss of about $5O0,000, with only $160,O00 insurance, besides great personal loss to 300 patients who were ill the build- ing, and who only had time to escape in their night clothes.
 One life is supposed to have been lost. Abner Case, aged S3 years, of Bath, N. Y., is missing, and it is sup posed his body is buried in the ruins. Mrs H. c. McDaniels of Bath, N. r., jumped from a fire escape about two stories from the ground and broke one of her legs. None of the other inmates sustained injuries.
 Fireman Fonda saved eight lives at a great risk of his own life Among the patients were Ira D. Sankey. the evangelist, and his wife, who climbed down fire escape.

NEW INDUSTRY LOCATED.
National Wire Mattress Co Takes Pos
 session of old Burritt Foundry.


 session of Old Burritt Foundry.
 Articles of association of the Nation al Wire Mattress Go were filed at the town clerks office today The incor- porators are H. H. Peck, W. l. Field ing, J. s. Elton and ". B. Merfiman. The directors are as follows: H. H. Peck, W. I. Fielding, R. ". Hill. ". B. Merriman and W E. Fulton. This is one of New Britain's old establish ments which it has been decided to re move to Waterbury. where with better facilities and almost unlimited capital it is expected that the company will have a prosperous career. The plant is located in what is commonly known as the Burritt foundry building on Por- ter street and is putting in new and improved machinery. which will enable the firm to do better work than ever before. Almost all the principal fur nishing houses in Waterbury have been dealing with the company for years and consider their goods the best the market affords. A Waterbury mer- chant told a Democrat reporter to-day that a man who sleeps on a bed in which is concealed springs made by this company never knows what it is to be troubled with nightmare or back ache. and unless some accident hap pens him at his work or elsewhere, in variably lives to q ripe old age. Some time ago the Democrat stated that the firm had removed to Waterbury and it was surprising to see the number of people who wanted to know all about 1t. Many of the merchants thought there was some mistake about it and claimed that the firm was such q fix ture in it's old quarters near the rail- road tracks in New Britain that they did not think it ever would be happy any place else. But there was no mis- take about the removal. The company is here to stay. | is located in good spot to do business in, just as close to railroad tracks as it was at the old stand. and with men back of it who can furnish all the collateral necessary to render it equal to any demand that may be made upon it. The Burritt foundry belongs to the heirs of the late E. c. Lewis and was a lively spot in the days when all kinds of gas fittings and everything else in that line used to be turned out there. It is thought that this is the strongest concern that ever started up i'll the building.

DIED AT ALMsHoUsE.
Dictated Letter to Young Woman
 Whom He Was to Marry.

Whom He Was to Marry.
 James Robinson died this morning at the almshouse of pneumonia. Rob- inson came to Waterbury from Flaw leyyille some time last December and until he was taken sick last Thursday managed to maintain himself by doing any kind of work he could get. Last Thursday the board of charities was notified that he was sick in a Grand street saloon. Clerk Thomas F. Me Mahon called at the place and after seeing the mans condition it was de- cided to send him to the almshouse, where he was properly cared for, but despite all he sank rapidly and passed away, after dictating letter to Miss Alice Baldwin of Hawleyville, whom he Eas to marry next Saturday. Rob- fnson was 2S years old and quite a good looking fellow. The last place he worked in Hawleyville was for the E. c. P1att Lumber Co. An effort is being made to ascertain if he had any relatives in Hawleyville. His case was one of the saddest that has come to the notice of Superintendent Moran during all the years he has been in charge of the Institution. The man thought he would get better in day or two and on this account he did not notify his intended bride of his illness on lime to give her an opportunity to call and see him before the grim reaD- CT carried him into the unknown world. When his condition became serious he concluded to break the news to her. but the letter had not been posted when he breathed bis last.
