The board of education tried TO get
a quorum last night to award the con-
tracts for the new Washington Hill
school, but failed, so after waiting
half an hour Vice Chairman Kent
took the chair and adjourned the meet
ing to this evening. Architect Ash
elm, who drew the plans for the school,
has discovered that he can modify
them to the extent Of 1,600, but this
amount in $1,000, by which sum the
lowest bid exceeds the appropriation,
is hardly of any CONSCIENCE.
A warrant was issued for Harry
Kershaw this forenoon, charging him
with taking without leave a horse and
buggy belonging to Herbert A. Dayton
of Watertown, collector for the Val
entine Boil Co. The matter is said to
have been all a mistake, it being a
common thing for both Mr. Kershaw
and Mr. Dayton to take each others
horse. il his own was not handy, and
it is said that such were the circum-
stances under which Mr. Kershaw is
alleged to have taken Mr. Dayton's
horse.
Jamaica ginger and mixed ale sent
George Matthews, an employee of the
Scovill Manufacturing Co, into the
arms of Officer Cassin last night and
the city court this morning. Judge
Peasley suspended sentence. A young
fellow named Edward Leary, also
charged with intoxication, was not so
fortunate, probably because it was his
third offense since June He was SEN
fenced to thirty days. The COM
plant against John Newell, the poll
| tician, for obstructing the sidewalk,
was nolled without costs.
Louis. J. Gilbert and Miss Julia A.
Dunn were married this morning at

nesses were Daniel Gilbert and Miss

bridal roses. The maid of honor wore
a gown resembling that of the bride
and carried carnations After the
ceremony reception was held at the
home of the bride where relatives and
friends Of the contracting parties gath
cred and extended good wishes for the
future. Mr. and Mrs Gilbert left on
the 1890 train for Boston where they
will spend their honeymoon On their
return they will reside on Hill street
The young couple received large num-
| Der of beautiful presents.
/ The south end people hope the board
of ---sii get move on
and commence operations on the pro-
posed new school building in that dis
trict. The Washington school was
overcrowded last year and it is not
likely that all the children of school
age in that part of the town will be
able to get in there at the opening of
the fall term. So much of the con-
tract as can be paid for this year
] should be let and the work pushed so
that the remainder of the contract can
be awarded and pushed to completion
as early as possible in 1903. The
| board appears to be rather dilatory in
getting things under way on that
school and naturally parents of chill
dren in that part of the town are COM
mencing to grumble.

Carpets are really dangerous t.
health unless cleaned frequently. Beat
ing in any ordinary way will not re
move impurities. The Waterbury
Steam Carpet Beating Co thoroughly
cleans carpets. rugs, etc, and freshens
them up, making them look as nearly
like new as possible.
