BROOKLYN BRIEFS

Don't forget the exhibition at the Third church tonight by the gym nasium class. under the supervision of Director Chattleton.
 --J H. Dolan and Sturges Bros are engaged in painting the interior and exterior of smokestacks at the Farrel foundry. They also have the contract to do like work for the Randolph &
 Gloves Go. The above firm is well 1 known in this section of the country for doing such kind of work. MT Do- Ian is well known as steeple climber. He has done work on some of the highest steeples in the country. Many
 of his undertakings have been difficult
 and hazardous During his stay in
 Waterbury he is stopping at the Brook \ lyn hotel. The Sturges Bros have also
 been engaged considerably in this kind of work
 The c. Thatcher Co has about com pIeted the installation of the new sani-
 tary system in the basement of the l Bank street school. The new system
 will be in full operation in few days. This system, which is known as the 1 Alberine system, is a vast improve
 ment over the old, antiquated and un
 healthy one that is now doing duty at
 the above school. No longer will there
 be any cause of fearing the health of
 the pupils of that school will be im-
 paired from the effects of q poor sys-
 tenn. No one feels more happy over
 the installation of the new system
 than Janitor Tiernan. 1t will some
 what lessen his labors, as more atten-
 tion had to be paid to the old system
 than to good one.
 -The Rev and Mrs Charles F. . Granger were rendered reception last night i'll the parlors of the Third Con- , gregational church.

Their Use by Notaries Public Not Ap-
 proved by Governor Mclean.
 Notaries public who use rubber stamp seals are likely to have their commits sions revoked ny Governor Mclean 1T they persist in the practice. The fol lowing letter from Executive Secre- tary Robinson to Geo 4. Conant, clerk of the superior court, is self expiana- tory:
 State of Connecticut, Executive De
 partment, Hartford, Conn, Jan 20 George A. Conant, Esq, Clerk of the
 Superior Court, Hartford, Conn.
 Dear Sir: It has come to our knowl- edge that certain notaries public are making use of rubber stamps as a substitute for notarial seals. This practice if persisted in is one likely to make trouble for individuals in their property rights. A rubber stamp is not such a seal as the law requires a no. tary public to possess, and we believe 1 that the courts of other states would refuse to recognize such stamp. | Governor Mclean authorizes me te | say that he will be compelled to re yoke the commission of any notary who persists in this practice. I write this to you as you doubtless have op portunity for bringing the matter t, the attention of any notary indulgin, in this practice. I am
 Yours very truly,

FOUGHT FOR LIFE.
Man Horse and Wagon Were Swept


 Headlong Down Raritan River.
 Someryille, N. J., Jan 23.-When Tax Assessor John H. Saums of Hillsbor- ough township left his home in Mlll- stone yesterday morning with his pay trotter hitched to light road wagon he found the approaches to the pig iron bridge over the Raritan river south of this place under three feet Of water. He urged his horse through and had nearly reached the bridge when the animal disappeared in hole that had bpeen washed out in the road bed The horse came to the surface and swan out into the river, carrying the wagon and Saums with it.
 The swift current and floating ice which the heavy rains of Tuesday night had broken up swept the horse and wagon along. They were struck by the ice and rolled over and over, and often disappeared beneath the sur- face. The accident was witnessed by | farmers on an embankment near the river, but they were unable to go to 1 the rescue through the flooded low l lands. William Snyder farmer, who was nearest the river. hid behind his barn to avoid seeing the man drown. After being swept down the river for an eighth of q mile Saums cut his horse from the wagon and got on. its back. Then began a desperate strug l gle for life. Horse and rider were ire quently hit by the ice and submerged but finally reached shallow water ex hausted. where they were quickly res cued by the farmers Saums wa
 taken to the house of John Frazee H, was cut and bruised, but was able t,
 return home later in the day.

 moved to Pest House.
 Willimantic, Jan 23.-The hope that Willimantic was to escape with a sin gle case of smallpox cannot be real ized. it seems, and it is now quite like ly that number of those who were eXposed by the Krout woman are to have the disease either in the regular or milder form of varioloid. Tester day it was decided that there were two cases, one, an infant, who had the smallpox, and the other a girl about 14, who had the varioloid. They were i'll the Frederick house which had been under quarantine and they with a num- Der of others had been exposed by the Krout woman. This morning boy, aged H. who was in one of the quar- antined houses, came down with the yarioloid. All the cases have been taken to the house where Mrs Krout | is sick and are being cared for by Dr ! Brighton and are not dangerously sick: Tn the three houses which were placed under quarantine there were nearly i twenty people, many of whom are children who were suspected of having been exposed by the Krout woman, l and as soon as it was discovered that sHe Hdu tie SuidllpoA tue uOuSoS NAclS they resided were all placed under quarantine, and since that time there has been no opportunity for others to be exposed. A strict police guard is still maintained over the houses and it is believed that the disease will be confined to those houses. The effects of the wholesale vaccination last week is keeping a large number of the mill employees from their work and yester- day it was said that nearly 1000 hands were kept at home from illness follow ing vaccination.

EAST HARTFORD SCARE ABATED

East Hartford, Jan 23.-There are no new developments in the smallpox situation in East Hartford and the scare as result of the quarantining of the house on Burnside avenue is somewhat abated. The boarder who was exposed, and afterwards showed signs of illness, is better and it has been decided that he has not got the smallpox. The authorities are now ready to take care of the disease if it comes here. The quarantine on the house was taken off Tuesday night by Health Officer Mayberry. The chair man of the school board has had pre- | pared q form of certificate, similar to one in use in Hartford, to be signed by l a physician, stating that the child has
 been successfully yaccinated. These willbe given to the teacher and will be placed on file.
